Warhammer: From Planetary Governor
Chapter 263 Pilgrimage
Landing ship, at the hatch.
The pilgrims were both expectant and somewhat uneasy.
They had discovered that this beautiful planet was not Holy Terra, but a strange place that had never been recorded in the pilgrimage manual of the Holy Land of the State Religion.
But the reception staff at the airport told them that there was a great holy land here.
In view of the friendly attitude of this planet, the pilgrims finally decided to go to the holy land on this planet for pilgrimage.
In fact, they had no better choice.
The supplies of the Pious had been exhausted.
The pilgrims had to contact the local nobles to get some material donations.
In addition, some pilgrims had to work locally in exchange for necessary food.
For the pilgrims, whether it was a barren or rich holy land planet.
Pilgrimage was a difficult thing.
It was even a kind of suffering, and many people would die on the way to pilgrimage.
On the barren holy land planet, most of the local holy lands were not managed by many people, and there were no related facilities.
Pilgrims may need to walk dozens of kilometers along the rugged cliff mountain road under the harsh sun to reach the holy land on the top of the mountain.
There is no supply along the way.
The holy lands they finally see are mostly some stone temples or stone pillars where some great beings have sat.
On the wealthy holy land planets, the locals will build huge and magnificent churches on the holy land, attracting many pilgrims to come and worship.
Because there are too many pilgrims, most locals will choose to charge a "redemption fee" to the people who come to worship.
In other words, pilgrims have to buy redemption tickets to cleanse their bodies and minds before they can step into the pure and flawless core area of the holy land.
However, about 80% of the pilgrims are in a state of extreme poverty and have no ability to pay the redemption fee.
They can only stay in the outer area, separated by dozens of kilometers, and look at the sacred place from afar.
Because many pilgrimages will last for months or even years.
Those pilgrims who are not qualified to enter the holy land will stay in the outer area for a period of time, forming a continuous stretch of dirty shacks.
In order to prevent the disorderly expansion of those shacks, the local area will dispatch engineering machinery to clean up those shacks regularly.
In the process of cleaning, some casualties may even be accidentally caused.
In short, pilgrimage is a journey of suffering.
Even so, the pilgrims still insist on worship, without regrets, and walk on the journey of suffering all their lives.
In their view, those sufferings are the test of the emperor to the believers, and only by persisting to the end can they usher in the final salvation.
Before leaving the Pious, the pilgrims were ready to face the ordeal.
They filled their stomachs with the remaining food to ensure that they could walk smoothly to the food supply point set up by the Holy Land.
Because they asked the receptionist at the airport, the Holy Land would provide some free food.
The pilgrims were very happy about this, at least they had corpse starch sticks to eat.
This planet called Ers looks very rich.
If they are lucky, they may have a small bowl of soup and porridge that is not so moldy.
They had enjoyed such treatment in a certain state religion holy place.
Jose covered his face and followed the crowd down the landing ship timidly.
His brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed deep worry.
Before boarding the ship, he asked the staff of this planet, hoping to pray for a job.
But the other party told him in surprise.
There were no suitable jobs to offer here, let alone for travelers from afar to work.
Just let him worship with peace of mind.
The staff member also excitedly told Jose that in another six months, it would be his turn to worship in the holy land.
Jose was very surprised.
After all, pilgrimage is not an easy thing.
He doesn't like pilgrimage, but he has no power to choose.
The moment his parents gave birth to him among the stars, his fate as a pilgrim was destined.
And he would be bullied because of his identity as the son of the void.
Now, Jose encountered more troubles.
If this planet does not provide him with a job, relying on the little food distributed by the Pious.
He can't support the next planet at all.
Suddenly, Jose bumped into something and came back to his senses.
It turned out that the pilgrims in front had stopped.
There was a loud bang.
Everyone exclaimed.
They looked at everything in front of them, seemingly in disbelief.
In front stood a magnificent hall, which exuded a soft golden glow, and solemn and sacred reliefs were carved on the walls.
On both sides of the road were lush grass and trees, with streams gurgling in them, and occasionally birds and beasts could be seen living in them.
It was like a beautiful Garden of Eden.
The building was so pure and sacred that there was not even a trace of filth.
This was unimaginable in other places.
Even on the richest planets, it was rare to see so many plants.
After all, most planets have become nests.
Perhaps only in those heavenly worlds can such a scene be seen.
The pilgrims stopped for a while, not daring to move forward, for fear of defilement.
The captain was a little unbelievable: "Is this the holy place where the holy relics are stored?"
This is really a rich planet!
This sanctuary is comparable to the sanctuaries in the great holy places of the state religion!
Of course, these pilgrims have never been inside those large sanctuaries, they just looked at them from afar.
"Praise the Emperor..."
The pilgrims smiled with joy. They tidied up their appearance, began to pray, and even worshiped on the spot.
Inside the reception hall for pilgrims outside the area.
The flush on Aleman's face has not gone away, and his head is dizzy.
Because she just met the great savior!
The Savior came here specially and told them to do a good job in reception and work hard to carry forward the good spirit.
They were also told to notify him when the pilgrims arrived at the Holy Cathedral.
When the time comes, he will go to the Holy Cathedral to meet the believers.
But none of this matters, because the Savior is... so handsome and charming!
If only I could see him a few more times...
Aleman held her face in her hands. She imagined that she would work hard, become an excellent citizen representative, and be received alone by the Savior.
Then……
"Aleman, pay attention to your work attitude!" The receptionist couldn't stand it and interrupted the little girl's fantasy.
"I know, for the savior!"
When Aleman heard this, he hurriedly stood up.
Then she rubbed her numb cheeks with her hands and returned to her normal smile.
The official at the reception desk stretched his neck and looked out, feeling strange: "Didn't you say that the pilgrims have arrived at the door? Why don't they come in? Are they going the wrong way?"
"Probably not?"
Aleman frowned: "Our reception hall is just one road, you can see it when you get off the boat..."
According to the original plan, out-of-town and local pilgrims were registered and entered the Holy Land through different reception halls.
The landing ship will directly carry the pilgrims from other places to the entrance of the hall.
"Go and see what's going on?" the official at the reception desk asked.
"okay!"
Aleman summoned the levitator and rushed to the entrance of the hall.
This is a hall that entertains 40,000 to 50,000 people at the same time. Running on legs alone is exhausting.
In order to welcome pilgrims from inside and outside the sector, there are about a thousand such halls.
At present, the flow of people in the entire holy land pilgrimage area is not large, and they are basically pilgrims from the star area.
There are about 500 million.
When fully loaded, it can accommodate two billion pilgrims, making it a very large holy land.
But it is far less than Holy Terra, which is said to receive billions of pilgrims from all over the galaxy at all times.
When Aleman arrived outside the hall, he saw pilgrims kneeling on the ground, worshiping something from a distance.
She was a little confused: "What's going on?"
Aleman glanced back at the reception sign that was covered by a large tree, and she quickly reacted.
These pilgrims must have misunderstood something.
She immediately recognized the gray-haired captain mentioned in the information as the leader of the pilgrims.
Hurry up and negotiate.
The captain who was praying was interrupted by the soft voice of the little girl.
After learning the truth, he was a little embarrassed, but also shocked by the wealth of this planet.
He quickly called the pilgrims up and hurried to the reception hall.
Seeing this, Jose, who was kneeling on the ground, struggled to get up and wanted to follow the crowd.
However, due to long-term hunger, he felt dizzy.
The food given by the angel was a life-saving ration, but he was reluctant to eat it. He thought of persisting until the pilgrimage and eating the free rations distributed locally.
Jose didn't take a few steps before he tripped over the rag robe he was wearing and fell to the ground.
The pale face and figure were exposed to the sun.
"Oops!"
He panicked and pulled the strip of cloth to cover his body, but the next moment, he felt someone gently lifting him up.
"Are you OK?"
Aleman looked over with concern.
Jose was at a loss.
However, he found that there was no discomfort or disgust in the eyes of the sister opposite him when he looked at him.
There was silence for a few seconds.
Jose couldn't help but say: "Aren't you afraid of me and think I'm ugly?"
"how come……"
Aleman looked at him and then at his hands: "I'm so envious of your skin being so white!"
When she was in the academy, she had learned relevant knowledge and knew that the boy in front of her was the son of the void.
Naturally understand the other party's situation.
Her smile was gentle: "And the Savior has told us since childhood that we cannot discriminate against others!"
Aleman was born after the planet Erth was recovered.
These children have been watching various advertisements for children by the Savior since they were in kindergarten.
For example, loyalty to the Savior is the most important obligation of citizens; study hard and make progress every day; outstanding children will not discriminate against others; the Savior is the best in the world.
Generally speaking, this group of children who have grown up are basically good citizens.
There will be no such foolish thoughts.
Besides, there are chicken thieves, greenskins, etc. in the territory, and people are more tolerant.
However, that is only for your own people and allies.
Thanks to some propaganda, their attitude towards their enemies was unwavering.
"You must be hungry, drink some of this to cope with it!"
Aleman took out a tube-shaped drink and handed it to Jose. It was a rejuvenating energy drink.
When she was in college, she drank a lot.
After Jose drank it, he felt much better.
Then Aleman pulled him onto the levitator and sent him to the reception hall.
At this moment, nearly ten thousand pilgrims made the hall lively.
After Aleman put Jose down, he hurried to the captain to complete the relevant registration matters.
She is only responsible for negotiating with the team leader.
As for those pilgrims, there will be a dedicated intelligent servo skull responsible for receiving them.
They will follow established procedures to guide pilgrims.
For example, their body shapes and faces are scanned into the system for strict registration.
Including recording their name, identity, location of the planet and some related information.
These pilgrims will be strictly monitored from the moment they enter the hall.
Of course, the monitoring process is hidden and will not be discovered by them, nor will it affect their worship process.
Jose glanced at Aleman in the distance. He followed the voice prompts in the hall and sat quietly on the chair.
Soon, hundreds of servo skulls flew over.
Among them, a servo skull flew in front of him, saying some precautions and registering his identity at the same time.
The reception hall was very efficient, and it didn't take long for all the people to be registered.
After Jose completed the registration process, he thought he could enter the holy place to worship.
Unexpectedly, this is just the beginning.
They were told that they needed to rest for one night in a residence arranged by the Holy Land before starting their pilgrimage the next day.
Jose got a black card from the Servo Skull, which was his identification and could be used in the pilgrimage area of the Holy Land.
He needs this card for his room and board in the Holy Land area.
There are also two hundred credits in the black card, which can be used for them to buy some specialties or souvenirs.
This holy land actually gave them currency?
Jose and the pilgrims were bewildered and pleasantly surprised.
Then, Jose and the pilgrims followed the guidance of the servo skull and walked out of the reception hall.
As soon as I walked out of the reception hall, my vision suddenly became clear.
The scenery in front of you is like a paradise garden, all bathed in the gentle sunshine, carrying a hint of sacred smell.
Whether it’s the wonderful scenery or the refreshing air.
Intoxicating everyone.
What they didn't know was that it was the light from the sacred sun emanating from the sacred tower.
Jose and the pilgrims saw more people. Those people should be coming to worship like themselves.
Those people were wearing exquisitely crafted white divine robes, with smiles on their faces and their complexions looking particularly rosy.
Jose and his party have a lot to offer.
They looked at each other's white divine robes, and then tugged at their own tattered robes.
He seemed a little ashamed of himself.
Those people must be nobles, after all, only nobles can afford high-end fabrics.
Jose thought silently.
Jose and his group silently followed the Servo Skull forward. Along the way, they saw more and more pilgrims wearing white divine robes.
It was as if the group of people were aliens among them.
They were secretive and a little confused about all this.
Finally, Jose and his party came to a building several kilometers high.
The Servo Skull told them that this was the hotel building in the Holy Land, and they could check into the corresponding room with their black card.
Then the Servo Skull left.
Afterwards, the servo skull in the hotel came out and guided Jose and his party to check in.
Tell them at the same time.
According to regulations, when they get up the next day, they must bathe and burn incense and wear the robes designated by the holy place before they can enter the holy place to worship.
Inside the hotel.
Jose and the five other pilgrims who were traveling with him were a little surprised when they looked at the noble decoration and soft beds and quilts in the room in front of them.
This condition is great!
There are even pilgrims who carefully caress the exquisitely crafted white divine robe for fear of getting stained.
It is a sacred robe given to every worshiper by the Holy Land, and you can take it away after worshiping.
"Savior……"
Jose looked at the mark on the inside of the divine robe and murmured.
Everything here bears the imprint of the Savior, and that figure has been deeply ingrained into the hearts of every devout pilgrim.
The savior who can create all this must be a great man.
"Pure water!"
In the bathroom, some pilgrims shouted and felt distressed: "This pure water is only for bathing!"
You know, they usually drink turbid, smelly recycled water, and even recycled water is very precious.
What the pilgrims don't know is that it is actually recycled water, but it uses more advanced purification technology from the golden age.
The pilgrims were shocked by what they saw in the room.
They followed the regulations, one after another, taking a bath carefully while feeling distressed, and washed away the thick dirt on their bodies.
After taking a bath, Jose lay on the soft bed and fell asleep under the fragrance of the fragrance.
That was the most peaceful and comfortable sleep he had ever had in his life.
The next day, Jose and the pilgrims got up, put on the white divine robes after burning incense, and walked out.
He looked at the pure white divine robe and couldn't help but straighten his waist.
Here, Jose was not as secretive as before, because he found that no one looked at him strangely.
The most you can do is take another look at him because of his special appearance, and then give him a kind smile.
Jose and the pilgrims followed the crowd to a restaurant in the Holy Land.
They already knew that the Holy Land would provide accommodation and three meals a day for pilgrims during their pilgrimage.
In the restaurant, Jose and the pilgrims of the Pious ate the most delicious food they had ever eaten in their lives.
Some even cried loudly.
Even though the food was just simple bread and dairy products.
After the meal, Jose and his party boarded the sightseeing bus and began a dreamlike pilgrimage.
They saw the newly built, several kilometers high, golden and gem-studded Emperor statue.
Jose and his party stepped on the grass and bathed in the holy light.
They looked at the Emperor's colossus towering into the clouds and the white-winged cherubim hovering in the air.
They were extremely shocked.
Afterwards, they saw more shocking miracles and deeply understood the deeds and greatness of the Savior.
They also experienced the holy hot spring sauna that cleansed the soul.
All of this made them deeply intoxicated.
This pilgrimage was so wonderful and unforgettable.
Of course, these atmospheres were deliberately created by Ron.
In addition to being a religious missionary site, this place is also a large-scale leisure and entertainment holy place.
It allows people to enjoy the pilgrimage process and leave a deep impression.
This is actually a benefit that Ron gives to the citizens of the territory.
According to the calculation of the citizen system, citizens of all levels have at least one or several opportunities to come for pilgrimage in their lifetime.
The better the level, the more times you can come.
It is equivalent to a two-week paid vacation, where you can move in directly with your luggage.
The Holy Land will give all citizens who come to worship the best resources so that they can fully enjoy this vacation.
In this way, they can not only deepen their faith in the Savior, but also slightly increase their enthusiasm for struggle.
If you want to come again, you have to work hard and make more contributions.
As for those pilgrims from other places, they are just additional additions. The main purpose is to make them recognize the Holy Land and spread the Holy Land.
Let him gain more pure faith.
You know, pilgrims will go to dozens or even more planets in their lifetime and come into contact with countless other pilgrims.
It is easy to spread the news.
...
Jose felt all this, and at the same time a seed quietly sprouted in his heart.
Time passed quickly, and Jose and his party soon arrived at the end of the pilgrimage - the Holy Cathedral of the State Church.
There they were received by the Lord Savior.
He guided everyone to see the most shocking miracle in their lives, a holy fingerprint from the Emperor.
The pilgrims of the Pious were crazy, this was the closest they had ever been to the Emperor in their lives.
They firmly believed that the Savior was a living saint blessed by the Emperor, and this was a great holy place second only to Holy Terra!
Soon, the pilgrims of the Pious spent two dreamy weeks in this paradise-like holy place.
They left the holy place reluctantly, carrying large and small bags of local specialties and Savior souvenirs.
Go to the airport and return to the Pious.
Afterwards, under the guidance of the relevant responsible agencies, the Pious left through the webway in a hidden way.
They will be sent directly to somewhere in the Solar Star Region.
——
Spire Mansion.
Savior's Office.
Ron sat at his desk, feeling quite emotional.
The pilgrims' faith was pure.
After seeing the Emperor's bloody fingerprint, their enthusiasm was terrifying. Many people fainted on the spot because of excitement, and some kowtowed wildly, and could not be stopped.
Next, the Holy Land will welcome more foreign pilgrim ships.
I believe that those pure pilgrims will soon be able to spread the existence of the Holy Land.
There was just a small accident.
The son of the void named Jose wanted to stay.
He made an exception and gave him a chance.
In the end, the boy named Jose passed the assessment of Zhongsi College and successfully enrolled in the Naval Academy.
Ding——
The email notification sounded.
Ron clicked on the email and was very excited: "Shashim is back..."
That means they can set off to Holy Terra!
