In the video room, Igulla, who watched the documentary "The Gospel" at 8x speed, wrote this word in his notebook and circled it repeatedly.
This documentary was filmed in 1680, which is only 8 years ago. After ignoring the tendencies of 'catering to the audience', 'celebrating the success', and 'ignoring the cost' that are basically common in such social science documentaries, this documentary can basically become a
An important reference for Igurah's actions in this country.
There is a lot of information that needs attention in the documentary, such as the Millennium Company 'Salome', which is responsible for manufacturing gospel props, and that each city is divided into ethnic autonomous areas and multi-racial mixed areas. For example, it will be vigorously promoted in the next thirty years.
Multi-layered cities' to deepen urbanization. For example, in the gospel country, education is completely free. Anyone who has passed the college entrance examination for magicians can enter for free and provide free food and accommodation. The number of colleges and universities has increased from 89 to 135 in a hundred years, and every year
Enrollment numbers are increasing year by year...
Judging from the proportion of notes taken by Iguola, we know how envious he is of the educational environment in the gospel country. He wanted to question the free education here, which must be just a gimmick, but the documentary slapped him in the face again and again, forcing Iguola to admit that he was
While he was carrying academic loans and occasionally had to work part-time at a local coffee shop, gritting his teeth and finishing college, there were a large group of bastards in the world enjoying a carefree, rose-coloured college life.
So even if Igula turned it on at 8x speed, it took him nearly half an hour to watch this documentary. The more he watched, the more he felt that he had lived a sewer life before. He was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe, so he had to stop and slow down.
He is the kind of person who is easily swallowed up by jealousy. Seeing other people's happiness makes him nauseous, so when he occasionally sees Ash smiling optimistically, his eyeballs will sting.
However, even in this obviously celebratory documentary, Igulla still captured several unusual information.
First, there is no church in the gospel kingdom.
Although everyone knows that the Gospel is a gift from the Omniscient Weaver, it is just that. No one promotes the teachings of the Omniscient Weaver, no one builds a statue of the Omniscient Weaver, and no one can even set up an 'Omniscient Weaver Study Group' because of you
Just open the Gospels and ask, and you will know that all churches are unauthorized cram schools.
In fact, if you think about it, you will understand. The foundation of the church is "God selects spokespersons to shepherd the world." To put it simply, "the group leader is very lazy, so he chose an administrator to help manage the group members." But the omniscient weaver is not lazy
Ah, as long as you have points, the Gospel representing the omniscient Weaver will listen to your nonsense 24 hours a day. How can a church with this kind of service quality compare?
In a sense, the church is just a middleman who makes a profit on the price difference, while Omniscient Weaver is a direct point-to-point manufacturer selling directly, and there is no soil for the church to survive.
Second, although there is no church, the gospel kingdom...has an imperial royal family.
As early as the Blood Moon Kingdom, Igura had heard about the existence of royal families and nobles in other countries. Logically speaking, he should not be surprised. However, the Gospel Kingdom is too developed and prosperous, so it is difficult for Igura to understand why this country is still a centralized monarchy.
Not a democratic system?
Even vampires know not to be dictatorial!
However, the Isu royal family that currently rules the Gospel Kingdom has lasted for 760 years. Since its birth, it has shrunk and centralized power from generation to generation. Legislative power, judicial power, and executive power are all firmly in its hands. Like the red hat in charge of public security, it suppresses the abyss.
Violent armed forces such as Bluebeard are led by people sent by the royal family, and national decrees are all issued from the imperial capital 'Nabistin'. For example, the "Multi-layered Urban Strategy" is a new policy promulgated by the royal family, which can be said to have all military and political affairs in hand.
It stands to reason that in such a centralized monarchy, there will definitely be huge bureaucratic interest groups, which will lead to the people's livelihood, and then collapse from the inside, leading to the change of dynasties. In fact, the dynasties before the Isu royal family were like this.
But for some reason, the Yisu royal family broke this cycle. Not only did it last for more than seven hundred years, but the country also developed rapidly, completely defeating the democratic system of the Blood Moon Kingdom. Even Igura began to doubt that monarchy and dictatorship might be the country of magicians.
the only way out.
Third, the specific goals of everyone in the Gospel Kingdom may be different, but the ultimate goal is to get on the list and become God's Chosen One.
The term "Chosen One" is used almost throughout the documentary.
Only the Chosen Ones can create new technologies, only the Chosen Ones can lead the times, and even only the Chosen Ones can achieve happiness... Just like the Blood Saint Yueying of the Blood Moon Kingdom, the Chosen Ones are the privileged class of the Gospel Kingdom.
But unlike the Blood Moon clan supported by the God Lord, the Chosen Ones are nobles supported by mortals. And the threshold for being a Chosen One can be said to be very low. As long as you log into any list, you are the Chosen One.
Even if you reach the top ten in the region by turning the flower rope, you can be included in the list.
But in a sense, the threshold is very high. If you don’t have enough talent and hard work, then you have no chance at all. Even if you have done everything well, you still have to consider the course of history. If you are in the same
There are many talented people suddenly appearing in this era, but you still can't get into the top ten.
Unless you try harder...
Igula thought about it.
He finally realized what was so 'friendly' about this documentary.
Although everything was good inside, everyone was full of vitality, the multi-racial division of labor was harmonious, and the society was prosperous, Igulla did not see the 'happy smiles' on their faces that made him jealous.
Every person and every sentence in the film conveys the same meaning
Be your best!
Be the strongest!
To defeat other peers!
To be the first in the industry!
Those who are not on the list are holding their breath and working hard, and those who are on the list are not daring to relax in order to maintain their advantage. The whole society is like an infinite gear, and everyone is speeding up and running spontaneously.
You don't even have to worry about going the wrong way, as long as you spend a few points, the gospel will point you in the direction of struggle at any time.
The social atmosphere is obviously very different from that of the Blood Moon Kingdom, but Igula feels very friendly.
Like a fly discovering a dunghill hidden in a cake.
Very interesting, really interesting.
Igulla plans to watch several documentaries next to gain a comprehensive understanding of the gospel kingdom.
He left the video room, intending to get some food and drink for a long battle.
When passing by the Funny Game Room, Igura heard dejected mutterings coming from inside. He looked through the crack in the door and found that Liz was inside. There was a large box of building blocks in front of her, and she seemed to be assembling building block toys.
This little drama queen is actually playing with building blocks?
After these two days of contact, Igura naturally recognized the nature of Liz's cute appearance and traitor. After all, Liz was very similar to him when he was a child. While using her cute appearance to deceive the adults' trust, Igura secretly denounced the adults' stupidity.
Igura was very sure that Liz was the same type of person as him. People like them would not be satisfied with using toys to entertain themselves.
After all, after experiencing the fun of fooling others, toys no longer seem interesting.
It doesn't get angry, has no warmth, and doesn't bark. What's the value of playing with something like this?
So what is Liz doing? Is An Nan’s secret hidden in the building blocks? Or is she here waiting for someone else to come over?
Igurah hid behind the door and observed, watching Liz carefully compare the shapes of the building blocks in her hands, and assemble the ones that fit.
One minute.
three minutes.
ten minutes.
fifteen minutes.
Igula couldn't bear it anymore. He went in and pointed at the messy building blocks and said, "There is an instruction manual next to it. Don't you know how to play according to the instructions!? This is obviously a castle building block, but you are pretending it is a dungeon.
Got it!"
Liz looked at him with her mouth pursed and didn't say anything. She just pulled the manual over and read it.
Igulla clenched his fists and walked up with an angry look on his face: "You rude little brat, it seems I have to show you some color..."
After another ten minutes, Ash, who was tired of playing virtual games, was going to the kitchen to get some drinks and snacks. When he passed by the Funny Game Room, he heard a quarrel coming from inside:
"This is obviously clicked here, just read the instructions!"
"Do you know how to play? I have never seen such a stupid little kid like you!"
"o(口≦)oWhy did you choose such a big building block castle! This is not a big project that can be completed by two people!"
"o( ̄ヘ ̄o#)You are so annoying."
Ash glanced inside through the crack in the door, looked at the castle blocks that had not even been assembled on the foundation, showed a thoughtful expression, and walked away.
