Chapter 98: Reviving the National Religion
Blessing is the authority of gods. Ron has studied this ability carefully.
The operation process of blessing is not very complicated.
He injects his own psychic power into the target carrier. This energy will work within the carrier and catalyze the carrier's own characteristics.
To put it simply, it is a catalyst.
Assists in strengthening the carrier's own abilities, making it more powerful.
At the same time, this energy also carries certain characteristics or concepts of the subject, which can affect the body and mind of the carrier.
Let the carrier unconsciously worship Ron as the subject, and even completely surrender.
For example, Bishop Donny.
After he received the blessing, the recovery of his physical strength was only incidental, and more changes were in his own characteristics.
The former Bishop Donny was good at fighting, but who would listen to his bad teachings?
But now he is even more holy, exuding a unique energy field and even a hint of holy light.
People unconsciously feel reverence and are willing to listen to his sermons.
The ability to preach has been greatly strengthened.
Putting aside his radical and somewhat heretical ideas, no matter who sees Bishop Doni, they will think that he is the most devout saint of the God Emperor.
It can be said that he is a contemporary living saint of the state religion!
Even at the headquarters of the Holy Terra National Church, he is still the number one person.
Of course he didn't dare to go, for fear of being cleared by the Archbishop.
That is why Ron dared to accept Bishop Donnie and let him continue to preach in the territory.
Under the influence of the blessing, Bishop Donnie also worshiped Ron, the savior chosen by the God Emperor, more and more, almost to the point of obeying his words.
The effect of blessing is indeed powerful, but you cannot just grab someone and bless them.
Blessing is just the catalytic carrier's own characteristics, auxiliary strengthening.
If the carrier is not good, the energy consumed by the blessing will only be wasted.
It’s almost like weapon enhancement in the game.
If the enhancement fails or it explodes directly, you will suffer a complete loss of blood.
Therefore, it is very important to choose who will be the target carrier of blessings.
Ron has not yet decided who will receive the blessing, so let’s keep it as a guarantee and use it when needed.
Inside the Anglican Cathedral.
Bishop Donnie looked a little empty, his old face wrinkled.
He is worried about the state religion.
Over the past few days, people have come to the church to pray, but the number is still too few.
It is simply incomparable to the heyday.
After the attack by the heretical rebels, almost all members of the state church in Shangchao District died, and branch churches everywhere were also destroyed.
It can be said that the Eth Star State Church is on the verge of destruction, and of course the Wangting District is not much better.
In this case, the preaching matter was naturally put on hold.
Now that Shangchao District has been recovered, it is a good time to revive the state religion.
Building branch churches, erecting statues, etc. requires too much manpower and resources.
The current state religion is unable to undertake such a large project.
Should we seek help from the Governor?
But it took so much manpower and resources in the Wangting District just to repair the God Emperor's statue.
Now if I go to the Governor again, can he agree?
Bishop Donnie frowned, feeling very entangled in his heart.
Just when he was struggling, the angel of wisdom at the door of the church sent a message.
The Governor is here!
Bishop Donnie was immediately overjoyed, his old face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, he grabbed the scepter and rushed out of the church.
The governor never came to visit for nothing. Now that he's here, it means something good is happening.
Bishop Donny rushed to the door of the church like a gust of wind, stopped suddenly, and restored his holy demeanor.
He stood there, waiting quietly for Ron to come:
"Your Majesty, the God Emperor, please come with me..."
Ron looked at Bishop Donnie's holy appearance and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The ability to bestow blessings is so strong. With such a posture and demeanor, when you go to the headquarters of the state religion, you must start as an archbishop?
He missed the original Bishop Donny a little, how enthusiastic that guy was.
Nowadays, there are too many cold and aloof people. Is it possible that blessing can change the character?
As usual, Ron followed Bishop Donny to the shrine and prayed, prayed, and blessed a dragon.
Several cherubim sang hymns in the air, and sprinkled flower petals and holy water on him as if for free, almost burying him in it.
Well, this feels familiar.
Ron looked at the saint-like Bishop Donnie, and he vaguely felt that this old boy had not changed.
As the blessing was about to end, he actually felt a weak force flying out of the shrine and entering his body.
Although this power has little effect on Ron, it is of great benefit to ordinary people.
Good guy, can this old boy really give blessings?
This ability is okay. In the future, the effect of his cloth must not be multiplied many times.
At the end of the ceremony, Ron directly revealed the purpose of coming here:
"I came here to discuss matters related to the revival of the Eth Star State Church with the Bishop"
"Praise to the God-Emperor"
Bishop Doni praised:
“Your move has really helped the state church, and His Majesty the God Emperor will protect you!”
“In any case, since I am the savior chosen by the God Emperor, People naturally have the responsibility to revive the state religion"
Reviving the state religion is one of Ron's important plans.
As an imperial government, it is absolutely inseparable from the God-Emperor.
Moreover, the belief in the God-Emperor spread by the state religion can, to a great extent, appease the hearts of the people and maintain order in the territory.
The faith of the God-Emperor has spread throughout the galaxy for thousands of years. Such a huge and deep-rooted faith power must be fully utilized.
Anyway, Bishop Donnie would never have imagined that the power of faith formed by his loud preaching in the territory would almost be intercepted by Ron's little sun and turned into his own nourishment.
For Ron, what belongs to the God Emperor is his.
As long as the God-Emperor doesn’t give the psychic powers a hard time, everything will be fine if Gaga absorbs the faith.
In this case, the state religion must be revived quickly.
Ron told Bishop Donnie that the Royal Court District would send manpower to assist the National Church in rebuilding various churches and erecting more statues of the God Emperor.
It will also help the state religion recruit new members.
The Ministry of Interior will also formulate a new policy to give workers two days of rest each month as prayer days, allowing them to go to church to pray.
As for whether two days off a month is too little?
Just kidding, Shangchao District is now in ruins and waiting to be renovated, and more than ten million people are crying out for food.
Even he, the governor, worked late into the night every day, so tired that his waist ached.
Two days is enough.
No matter how much it is, the donkeys in the production team will not dare to rest like this.
Ron can only ensure that the workers have enough food and reasonable working hours. Even if they are a little bit tired, they will not starve to death.
You can have something to eat, you can have time to rest, and you can go to church to pray for the blessings of the God and Emperor.
This is already a paradise life for the workers.
After the discussion, Bishop Doni was very grateful and personally escorted the Governor to the door of the church.
He stood at the door of the church and looked at Ron's back, with tears shining in his eyes. He could not forget it for a long time:
"He is indeed the most devout believer of His Majesty the God Emperor!"
