Balke breathed a deep sigh of relief when he heard that the true god in Wang Xu's mouth was not an evil god.
After all, the Goddess of Wealth comes from the God of Light. As a believer of the Goddess of Wealth, Balke’s camp attribute is also inclined to light. Although he chose to betray his faith in order to get the water of immortality, this does not mean that he has no respect for the evil God.
Somewhat recognized.
"The goddess of wealth is a tolerant god who allows the people in her jurisdiction to believe in other gods.
Of course, it is not all tolerance. The authority of the Goddess of Wealth is wealth. She does not value the beliefs of ordinary people because the power of her beliefs is very strange. Any thought of illusions about wealth will bring power to the Goddess of Wealth.
This means that she does not need to force others to believe in her to a certain extent, because no one can live without wealth, and naturally no one can live without the goddess of wealth. This kind of god relies on faith and is transcendent.
Sex has some characteristics of a divine king.
For example, the God King of Light, the God King of Darkness, the God King of Death, the God King of Life, the Dragon God King, the Great Elf King, the Element God King, the Sin God King, and the Time God King. Their authority is a kind of law in the world.
The world is inseparable from light, darkness, death, rebirth, elements, sin, and time
Therefore, before these laws disappear, the power of their faith will not disappear. This kind of behavior of not relying too much on faith is regarded as the standard for becoming a god-king-level existence.
This is the case with the Goddess of Wealth. Within her jurisdiction, as long as the belief in an evil god is not promoted, she will often turn a blind eye.
According to incomplete statistics, there are hundreds of belief systems in the entire Wealth Federation. As long as our beliefs can stand the test, have nothing to do with evil gods or the abyss, and do not attack rich people who believe in the Goddess of Wealth, the Goddess of Wealth and the Temple of Wealth
They won’t care about our existence, and we will soon be able to open a door here.”
As the bishop of the southern district of St. Asona, Balk is very aware of the code of conduct of the Temple of Fortune.
"I have no love for the rich. These people have great wealth and belong to the owners of knowledge. What our Lord values most is the believers who need knowledge, not the money in the hands of believers. Therefore, our teachings will never conflict with the Temple of Wealth.
Conflict, even, we will create more people with wealth. From the perspective of the two doctrines, we and the Temple of Wealth are natural allies."
Wang Xu is not worried about the attitude of the Temple of Wealth, which is the main reason why he came here.
If we switch to the northern countries, they practice democracy and the most important thing is the interests of the lords and nobles.
Spreading knowledge to ordinary people, helping them enlighten them, and letting them know how to see the world from their perspective will directly threaten the obscurantist policies of the lords and nobles. Conflict between the two sides is inevitable. In serious cases, it may even lead to the gods who stand behind these interest groups.
The Wealth Federation is different. It is more civilized and modern. Although the knowledge blockade still exists, there is still room for improvement for ordinary people.
Spreading knowledge and developing teachings here can gain more support from the people. Even the rich men who hold power are happy that their workers are more educated, because they are doing business, not farming.
Those who farm will become restless once they become educated.
The opposite is true for those in business. The better the employees, the more they can earn for their bosses, and the faster their wealth will increase.
"Our Lord, the God of Wisdom, needs us to spread His glory. In terms of funds, the great God of Wisdom will give us certain support. Our main problem now is how to formulate doctrines and how to develop believers."
Wang Xu looked at Priest Balk and asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Balk thought for a while and then said: "I need to understand two issues now. The first is the attitude of the God of Wisdom towards faith, and the route our temple should take. Is it to cultivate elites with fewer skills or more elites?
mixed public.
The issue of attitude towards faith is very important to a nascent church like ours. If the God of Wisdom urgently needs believers, we can only teach without discrimination.
On the contrary, if we only need elites, we can slow down our pace, raise our demands on believers, and adopt the route of elite soldiers and strong generals."
"Is there any difference?" Wang Xu asked rhetorically.
"The difference is huge. In the world of gods, everyone needs faith. The only difference is whether it is shallow faith, deep faith, or fanaticism.
In each major temple, according to the degree of belief, believers are divided into unbelievers, shallow believers, sincere believers, fanatical believers, and the highest Holy Spirit.
If we follow the principle of having no religion but no distinction, we will definitely have conflicts with other temples on a large scale. After all, there are only so many believers. The more people believe in you, the less people believe in me.
This large-scale loss of believers will, if serious, lead to war and confrontation between two temples, or even two pantheons of gods.
Once we choose this, we must be ready for war, at least before our name is announced, other temples will not be willing to poach people like this.
On the contrary, if we take the elite route and move more secretly, as long as we don't look too ugly, no one can do anything to us.
You must know that this is the Federation of Wealth, the home of the Goddess of Wealth. Although the Goddess of Wealth allows other gods to preach here, it is the generosity of the goddess and does not mean that this land is theirs.
Unless they feel that the damage is too much and the loss is too big to accept, although there will be private struggles, everything will not be made public, so as not to arouse the resentment of the goddess of wealth."
"Implementing the second method, for now, does not require us to go to war with other temples for believers. Didn't I say that players will come in ten years, and by then we will have a large influx of ownerless believers, and their
The number must be astonishing."
Wang Xu decided to take the elite route because he knew very well that the future is dominated by players, and no matter how many indigenous believers there are, nothing will happen.
"correct!"
A bright light flashed in Wang Xu's mind, and he said: "Believers who believe in our Lord are allowed to maintain their previous beliefs. Those who had previous beliefs do not have to withdraw from the temple. Our Temple of Wisdom allows these people to join secretly. This method can be called
Dual Faith.”
The idea of dual faith comes from modern dual nationality.
In modern society, developed countries such as the Eagle Country, the United States, Germany, France, and Belgium all allow you to maintain dual nationality.
The benefits of this are obvious. If a person from the Eagle Country goes to the Mei Country to do business, in order to obtain the highest local subsidy, he can become a Mei Country citizen.
At the same time, he does not need to give up his Eagle Nation citizenship. Legally, he is still an Eagle Nation citizen and can come back at any time.
Of course, those who support dual nationality are basically developed countries. They are convinced that the talents who have left will come back. However, developing countries often do not support dual nationality in order to avoid the outflow of people.
As for whether the brain drain can be reduced by not supporting dual citizenship, that is another question.
Wang Xu believes that if a believer leaves his original church and joins the Temple of Wisdom, the chance is 0.001.
Then after allowing dual beliefs, this probability can be increased at least ten times to 0.01, that is, the probability rises from one in a thousand to one percent.
To be honest, what Wang Xu needs is not believers or faith. He established the church and the pantheon in order to better integrate into the world of gods.
If you weren't worried about joining other gods, or that it would be difficult to perform as a wild god, it would be no problem to let him join other gods.
Also, players will definitely account for a large proportion in the future, and he needs a brand to recruit players to work for him.
In the past, he thought that getting a noble title was enough, but then he thought that it was okay to live in peace and quiet with just a noble title, but it would be difficult to achieve greater achievements. First of all, your identity is the problem.
Only at the level of gods can one have access to more comprehensive things and be qualified to play the game. This is why Wang Xu changed his views.
