Chapter 1546： big mover (1/2)

Gawain and Belsetia's ideas have fully proved one thing, that is, if you want to exploit loopholes in religious ceremonies, you have to be knowledgeable or shameless, and as long as you can meet these two conditions. One, there are really as many loopholes as you want to drill. Religious activities inherited from the primitive worship period have slow iterations, and almost no one will look at this sacred thing from the perspective of "drilling loopholes", and of course not. Some people take the initiative to fix bugs or seriously discuss the unreasonable aspects of the ritual process. However, the natural principles behind these rituals will not actively avoid certain loopholes because of the ignorance of believers. Now, these are things that no one has considered for thousands of years. The loopholes became "opportunities" in Gawain's eyes.

Thinking about it carefully, the existence of such loopholes is actually a necessity. After all, one of the most important conditions in devout belief is "don't question". What is "don't question?" In simple terms, theocracy is absolute. As long as it points to the gods, then mortals will never be allowed to doubt and encounter problems? That is a test given by the gods, and the words in the scriptures are unreasonable? Is that because of your own lack of understanding, the house next door suddenly disappeared halfway through the sacrificial ceremony? God's move must have a deep meaning, don't even think about continuing to pray, even if this street is gone, it's God's will...

This is piety.

Of course, all of the above are only considered from the perspective of church activities. When it comes to actual operation, it must not be so rude and simple. As the ruler of the real world, Gawain has to consider the stability of society and the lives of a large number of ordinary people. He cannot It's really a big sacrifice ceremony and then let a house or even half a block disappear out of thin air in front of ordinary people. This needs to be discussed with the gods involved, and the things in the house can be taken away...

The assembly hall fell into a short period of silence. The gods were obviously shocked by Gawain's whimsy, and even Amoen, who was eating melons and watching the fun, was in a petrified state at the moment, until Gawain's voice suddenly broke. Silent: "What do you think of my suggestion?"

A breeze blew from nowhere, rolling the courtyard under the golden oak trees, and amid the rustling of the grass blades, Amoun's voice finally sounded on the edge of the assembly hall: "I think I can give it a try, from the sacrificial ceremony. Judging from the process and loopholes in the process, this operation is feasible, of course, the details of the specific implementation still need to be discussed... such as the designation of the sacrifice field."

"Yes, the sacrificial field is affected by the symbolic meaning of the ceremony, not because we want to say how big it is," Buffal, the **** of commerce, nodded and said, "and we are not able to take away anything in the ceremony at will, This first requires the 'approval' of the ceremonial process. It is best to hold a closed ceremony in the church, which is the place where the earth and the kingdom of God are more closely connected, which can ensure the stability of the transmission process, and the closed environment of the church also helps to cover the ceremony site. Unusual movement around."

"But is there an arsenal near the church?" Nefari, the **** of song, dance and wind, frowned, "There seems to be no such thing around the main churches in my memory..."

"There is nothing around our sister's church," Eve, the goddess of harvest, also shook her head. "There is no such thing around the church facilities..."

Gawain looked at these few with a serious expression: "This can be."

"...That's right," Nefali was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "This should be easy for you to arrange."

"But does it still need a legitimate name to hold such a large-scale sacrifice ceremony suddenly?" Blood God Danmo immediately raised a question, "Although the devout believers do not question the oracle, but such a large-scale sacrifice Not only the devout believers are affected by church activities, but the doubts that arise in the hearts of ordinary believers and shallow believers may also affect the state of the deity half body..."

"We can cooperate in this aspect in this world," Gawain continued, "Winter is coming to an end, and the next month of recovery will be a month of various festivals, and we can organize various celebrations of the month of recovery... Churches will organize sacraments to please the gods during celebrations like this, so it's not surprising to have them add a sacrificial ceremony to their regular prayers... If you need a name, it's after the victory in the Wasteland War. Prayers for all beings in the world."

"Similar sacrificial ceremonies can be held many times," Rosetta Augustus said immediately after Gawain's voice fell, "After the end of the month of recovery, there will be the Midsummer Festival, and then there will be the Harvest Festival, and next year In winter, there is also the Winter Veil Celebration. Although according to tradition, not all festivals have sacrifices in the sacrament, but now is the first year after the end of the Wasteland War, whether it is in the name of consoling the wasteland war hero or In the name of the world's blessings, we can all ask cathedrals to hold such ceremonies."

"And we don't necessarily have to hold the sacrament during the festival," Bersetia also broke the silence, "you can create some small-scale miracles in some 'holy places', and then cause public opinion around them, and finally Holding additional religious ceremonies in the name of 'Omens from the Sky' will not be rejected by pious priests as long as there is a valid reason, especially since these things will also be approved by the Theocratic Council. Of course, this process may require With the cooperation of the gods... Now that you have been separated from the divine half-body, can you still do things like cause miracles in the world?"

Belsetia's last sentence was said by looking at the gods in the assembly hall, and Faule, the **** of winter and the forest, responded immediately: "Of course, this is something that is almost instinctive for us, no matter if it is divinity. The half body or the human half body has this power."

Gawain nodded: "This solves another problem. All in all, we need to cooperate extremely tacitly with the world and the gods this time, so as to ensure the success of the plan without disturbing the divine half-body, nor disturbing the gods. Not to cause turmoil."

The three earthly emperors and the gods discussed the plan to guide Ragnarok in a word-by-word manner. Those daring and even astonishing plans took shape so quickly, Amber couldn't help but widen her eyes, and she finally endured for a long time. A sentence kept popping up: "Why are you so proficient in formulating these plans... I feel that ordinary priests are not as smooth as you!"

Hearing Amber's remarks, Gawain just breathed a sigh of relief, and said indifferently: "The person who ends theocracy must be the one who understands theocracy best. If you want to destroy an order, you must first be in this field. Experts do it, nothing can be done without angry and ambitious people."

"This may be the first large-scale cooperation between the mortal world and the gods, and it will be the last time," the blood **** Dan Mo couldn't help but sigh, "Ironically, the mortals and the gods have until the decision to end the age of mythology. It's time to really have a little bit of tacit understanding."

"It's better than not being able to communicate until the last moment," Nefali reassured beside him, "It will be fine after this incident is over. Without the hidden danger of crazy gods, many of the Theocratic Council's plans can be more reassuring and bold. If we continue to push forward, those of us who are left of humanity can also work together with the Council. Didn't Gawain Cecil describe a 'final order'? That day will come sooner or later..."

Amber's eyes swept between these stalwart figures and Gawain and other three earthly emperors, and she didn't know what she was thinking about, and suddenly a sentence came out: "But we are so dense in one year. Is it really okay to organize church events?"

Gao Wen glanced at her: "What kind of problem are you referring to?"

"In terms of public opinion, what is the direction of the official release?" Amber said while organizing the language. After being with Gawain for so long, she was obviously able to use many new words invented by the other party. "Will these sacrificial activities be held? I won’t discuss about strengthening the connection of ideological trends. After all, the beliefs of the gods themselves are still there, and the connection of ideological trends is also there. There is not much difference between strengthening and not strengthening, and the whole plan will last for at most one year. After one year, if everything goes well The age of mythology is over, but the key is the follow-up after this...
