"The terrible kingdom of Olbia, a crazy place of faith dicks and ** uncles......"

With trepidation, Shepard rented a boat in the harbor so that he could set off from the peninsula and cross the calm waters between the peninsula and the mainland to land in the southern part of the kingdom of Makere, but the long river had blocked the Makere people in the north.

After the ship departed, he also looked back at the port, which was just one of the ports of the Olbia Kingdom, the inhabitants of this kingdom mainly lived in the archipelago, and they believed in one of the few gods in the New World who had a primordial godhead, with three priesthoods of love, sex, and pleasure, and the body was a male god with a big belly, the god of love, Cipti.

In the previous game, the kingdom of Olbia was known as 'naked to heaven', and this is still full of mosaics, and now there is no mosaic brother in the real world to stop those crazy exposure lovers, this kind of visual pollution is even more difficult for Shepard than a bloody battle with people.

After a day of drifting at sea, Shepard finally came ashore and relied on the guidance of the Olbians to search east along the south of the Long River, looking for one of the only countries on the continent that was not good at war, the [Ptolemaic Kingdom], and the other one that was not easy to fight was naturally the Olbians who were keen on open field battles or naked runs.

Orton Leads New Town, Arnoll Lund.

The city wall, which is made of pure logs, is two people high, filled with sand, and is sturdy and durable, and the city wall can accommodate three people in parallel, which is quite wide.

Like the early church of the three towns, the Church of Light has always put practicality first, whether it is Arnoor Lund in the center or Iruhir in the west, they all use local materials, using log sand as the main material to build the city wall, and the first batch of immigrants of thousands of people is also the main force to build the city, so it is natural to be resettled on the spot.

These two new towns have been basically formed, fortunately, the area is not large, and in the future, they will also be used as inner cities or cores, and they will be expanded when the population increases, otherwise the project will be huge and protracted, and it will not be in line with the original intention, especially since the five cities of the church are geographically distant from each other.

Different from the original three towns, the Church has been particularly strict in its planning for these two places, and the biggest change is the promulgation of the [Pope's Decree], stipulating that in the future, the Church must have a temple and four sanctuaries in each city; A town must have a temple and two sanctuaries; The rest of the villages have at least one sanctuary, the so-called 'faith in the countryside', leaving no dead ends.

It is also stipulated that probationary pastors who do not preside over village sanctuaries cannot be promoted to pastors; A priest does not preside over a temple, nor a bishop; And the bishop cannot be promoted to archbishop if he has not presided over the affairs of the church in a city or town, so that all the high-ranking clergy will come from the lower ranks and will not be boastful.

Not only that, but thanks to the improvement of paper and printing techniques by the Manufacturing Bureau, a large number of thread-bound books from the theological chapel attached to the main temple, which was set up by the Pope himself and was not allowed to be entered, but only by the clergy who devoted themselves to the study of theology.

Relying on these people, many of the ideas put forward by Shepard were compiled into books, and a large number of storybooks were compiled with reference to the experience of a certain party in his previous life, so as to not only publicize the positive image of the church and spread the doctrine, but also to control the ideological trend and avoid deviation.

More importantly, each sanctuary and shrine also shoulders the responsibility of teaching the youth and children in the territory to read and write, learning how to select the most common language as the most spoken language according to the several languages in circulation in the local area, and cultivating the writing and learning of a small number of basic characters, so as to improve the literacy level of the grassroots in order to cope with the joint examination in the coming year.

Through the education and promotion campaign carried out by the church before, a large number of uncultivated and temporarily selected mediocre talents have already been screened out, and even a group of religious clergy have been forced by Shepard to join the convoy, called 'military priests', just to improve the church's control over the armed forces.

With the help of divine arts, coupled with the holy power to wash the body and improve the qualifications, the rest of the people now are people who can at least speak the lingua franca and write common words normally, and their own wisdom and learning ability are also quite good.

The so-called books are on the same track as the literary car, and the unity of the country must always rely on the coordination of cultures to be subtly stable.

In a trance, I've been here for two years, and it's about to be my third year. ’

In the common room, a clergyman in a bishop's robe stood humbly in front of Shepard, he was a little thin, but he was the fourth bishop promoted by Shepard, who was qualified to release third-level divine magic, named Mandoloni, who was in charge of the church's cultural industry and theological chapel, as well as in charge of Shepard's strict educational programs.

Mandoloni didn't notice that the spokesman of the god he admired incomparably in front of him was wandering, and still reported respectfully: "In order to cooperate with the priests specially trained in the joint entrance examination, they have been assigned to various temple sanctuaries one after another, and the lecturers in the theological chapel will also carefully evaluate the results of the teaching priests, and the results of the evaluation will be submitted to the main temple for you to see." ”

Shepard snorted, didn't care too much, in a world where there is a true God, it is extremely simple to determine whether the faith is pious, especially Shinto loyalty and piety are almost the same, this is the convenience of Shinto, even the gods can't be omniscient and supervise every day, and it's okay to focus on the core of their own church.

I am not afraid that my subordinates will destroy the foundation, so naturally I don't have to try my best to fool the people like in my previous life, and I will cling to power, and even have a rare talent who has seen through the truth of the world created by hundreds of years of cultural precipitation, but is tied to the stake and burned to death by fools.

In addition, there is a true God, and the attitude of the people of the world towards faith is also more serious, especially the wisdom of the people has not been opened, and most of the things carried out by the church are regarded as the mandate of heaven, and there is almost no objection, but this is the inevitable process of the early development of civilization, and we must work together to get through the fragile period of the initial birth of civilization.

Just like human growth, babies and teenagers must be strictly corrected by their parents, so as not to embark on the wrong path, and when the child grows up, he will naturally have three views on his own growth, and then he will be able to let go of his hands and play freely, only in the key is to mention one or two.

At that time, of course, there will be bold people who will challenge the divine power, but it is a scene that any god must face, and it is also the inevitable result of a strong civilization.

I took the book that Mandoloni took on the table and turned it over slightly, the printing quality of the woodcut was very average, but fortunately, the number of words on each page was not much, and it was quite clear.

Shepard read a few pages, picked up the pen on the table, and said that he had tried to implement the Four Treasures of the Study Room before, but the writing habits and text structure were too different to be popularized or adapted, and in the end he was the only one who could use this thing.

After correcting a few places on the page, he handed it to Mandoroni, and praised him a few words by the way: "You have done a good job, the matter of overseeing is related to the future of the church, do not take it lightly, and when this matter is on the right track, you will go to the town of Arnorlund for me, and prepare for the future migration." ”

Mandoloni looks thin, but all the clergy of the church must have combat training, and those who can become bishops are at least equivalent to intermediate warriors above level 10, and the priest has a divine body that is even more terrifying, so he is actually full of temperament when he speaks, which is extremely inconsistent with his body type.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, there will be no mistakes!" Mandoloni assured in a deep voice.

I don't want to do that monopoly of knowledge, just because the rulers have different positions, they naturally pursue different things, Shepard shook his head and smiled: "Education is not a day's work, you also have to remember to cultivate a few usable people, so that you can take over this matter later, just work hard and have the heart to sacrifice for the Lord!" ”
