The stumbling prayer ceremony was quite neat, and the light on Shepard's body became warmer and brighter, and all the townspeople who were illuminated, and the townspeople who chanted "Lord of Light" in their hearts, felt the warmth and satisfaction released from the bottom of their hearts, which was a kind of happiness like lying in the arms of their mothers when they were babies.

This light is getting brighter and brighter, and the scope of the enveloping is getting bigger and bigger, Shepard intends to do the best at one time, and the divine light with the nature of purification and exorcism gradually envelops the entire town, the yin and death qi in the land are removed, the toxins and filth in the air are purified, and the entire [Yanan Town] is like a divine kingdom for a while.

When the light faded, all the townspeople shed tears of happiness, and even the strong and resolute mayor cried like a child.

Shepard looked at him with a smile, "Mr. Mayor Town, my lord is a true god of mercy and generosity, now you understand?" ”

Mayor Mare nodded heavily, "Uh...... I understand, Mr. Pope, that the town of Anan will be the blessed land of the Lord of Light, and I will have the altar of the Tree of Wisdom torn down! ”

'Flexible. Shepard looked at the mayor of the town, and he had only said it once, and he remembered the title of the Pope, and it was indeed a good material.

He did not make any comments on the arrangement of demolishing the altars, and in the early days of the spread of faith, it was necessary to ensure the purity of the fertile soil, and in the Old World, only the gods who could communicate on an equal footing would allow other people's temples or beliefs to exist on their own territory.

And in the New World, which is still in the embryonic and development period of civilization, it is a blank canvas, and only the strong are respected! Forerunners, you can draw as much as you want!

When the mayor was about to leave, he turned to Shepard and said, "By the way, Mr. Pope, don't call me Mayor Mafesa, my name is Mufasa, you can call me Mufasa!" ”

Shepard smiled and nodded, and Mufasa left with confidence.

*

The conversion movement went smoothly, although there were not enough pastors to carry out the mission, but there were people around the town who were facing the miracle at that time to spread the word, and the big action of purifying the whole town was also witnessed by everyone, and the soil of faith was cultivated smoothly, and the next step was to slowly stabilize it.

Sataru, who was almost kicked to death by Shepard and saved alive, was the first to rush to the altar to dismantle it, although his leg was still sloping, Shepard also told him that his leg bone had been finalized, and even if he broke the connection, it would not be cured.

In this way, although Sataru regretted it, he also knew that he could not ask for more, because of the mixture of awe and fear and gratitude, he became an extremely devout believer in the Lord of Light, Tonatiu, and in Shepard's vision, when the pan-believers on the god's board increased dramatically like a diving board, he was one of the first townspeople to become orthodox in Yanan Town.

Not only that, but Sataru moved his family out of the house as the foundation of the temple to build a church building that would at least be called a sanctuary, while he and his family moved to an abandoned warehouse at the other end of town, where they would move out when his family had rebuilt a house.

Mufasa chose to obey Shepard's orders very wisely and obediently, and Shepard was very pleased, and he promised Mufasa to continue as the mayor of the town, select suitable candidates from the militia and townspeople, and begin to form the official team of the [Church of Light].

With hundreds of households, the town of Yanan is enough to support a small church.

Filina and Evie, as well as a few boys and girls selected from the town, would be groomed as the first priests and saints, with Shepard defining saints as the names of female clergy, and Hunter and Kramar selecting a few to form the first Templar Guards.

The so-called guards who originally guarded the altar were all added to the militia and were responsible for patrolling and guarding the town.

While the townsfolk were in a hurry to transform Sattaru's house into a sanctuary for the Lord of Light, Shepard was not only teaching the priests and saints of the reserves, but also developing a training plan for the Templar Guard, and in addition to having a workshop built near the sanctuary for the church to be used for smelting, blacksmithing, armor making, bow making, and other purposes.

Mufasa was indeed a good manager, and without the Zataru who was in the way, he mobilized the townspeople in the name of the church, not only arranging Shepard's requests in an orderly manner, but also repairing the town's walls and some buildings that needed to be repaired, thus increasing his prestige as mayor of the town.

"Wow!"

Taigong, who had begun to enter the growth period, was twice as old as before, his fur was smooth and shiny, his spirits were bright, his eyes were bright, and he was full of spirituality, and at this time he was running around outside the sanctuary, and the children and teenagers of several towns were very fond of this beautiful big dog, and ran around with it, jumping up and down, and having fun.

Standing on the second floor of the sanctuary, Shapard was smiling from the balcony of the original Sataru family watching the scene below, children are the future of mankind, their intimacy with the church will strengthen their family's dependence and sense of belonging to the church, and the deeper the church is rooted among the believers, the more and better the power of faith will be brought to the gods, which is a mutually beneficial sustainable development.

After looking at it for a while, he turned around and walked back into the house, which was transformed into a quiet room-like second floor, with an offering table with a statue of Tonateu at one end, and a dozen straw-filled futons placed on the ground in an orderly manner, on which Evie and Filina knelt on the futon, they were the messengers chosen by the gods, an extension of the will of the gods on earth, and they had to kneel down on both knees to show piety and obedience.

Sensing Shepard's approach, they all raised their heads to look at him, and greeted respectfully: "Your Excellency! ”

Shepard bowed his head one by one, and the salutation had been arranged, and the future priests and saints received a response, and continued to pray to the gods with satisfied smiles on their faces.

This kind of homework can constantly temper their faith, the priest of the gods must be the orthodox, Shepard is a very serious character in this regard, even in the most embarrassing times, he will not allow the ungodly to enter the church to fill the number, that is to cut off his roots.

Moreover, all pastors must meet the four basic requirements of piety, steadfastness, strength and kindness, pastors are an extension of the will of the gods, if mixed in with some bad conduct, impure temperament of the black sheep, not only will destroy the unity of the entire missionary team, but also hurt the feelings of the believers for the church.

But on the other hand, although these priests belong differently from the Church Guards, the Knights of the Order, and the Knights of the Guardians, they are required to resolutely and resolutely crack down on all actions that are harmful to the Church, to the gods, and to the teachings of the gods.

It is better to defend the truth of our Lord with your life! This is the principle of the Church!

At present, Shepard is still weak in divine power, and with the believers in the fishing village and Yanan Town, there are already a thousand believers under his command, but less than one-tenth of the true believers.

This ratio is already very terrifying, those primitive gods don't know how to guide and train believers, and the conversion rate of pan-believers and orthodox believers may be pitiful, even if it is those gods in the old continent, the emerging belief gods will not teach their subordinates to have great gods, otherwise there is no need to frantically pursue the number of believers, in order to strive to improve the quality with quantity.

The number of righteous believers must reach at least one thousand, and Shepard is qualified to be promoted to the weak level of divine power, which is also the lowest level of true gods recognized by ordinary people, and this is impossible to do only by Yanan Town and the fishing village, where the fishing village relied on stealing the original villagers' belief in the sacred spring, plus the folk customs are simple, even so, the number of righteous believers has dropped a few.

Yes, believers who are not religious enough will fall into rank, this is helpless, people's hearts are changeable, and every believer who is still as religious as the original after a long time is a precious possession of the gods, so the gods will receive their souls to the kingdom of God after the death of these believers, and be with God.

Orthodox believers, this is the minimum standard for believers to enter the kingdom of God, and pan-believers will only accept the arrangement of death in Hades to see if they will be put into eternal sleep or if they will be arranged otherwise.

The unbelievers have been hung with street lamps, and there is nothing to talk about.

[Name: Shepard]

[Race: Divine Creature]

[Divine Power Level: Weak Divine Power (Demigod)]

【Priesthood: Light, Fire, Purification】

[Title: Tonatiu, God of Light, Wilderness Walker]

[Orthodox: 102, Pan-Believer: 874]

[Pastor: 4]

This is Shepard's current god attribute, and since he is still only a weak god, he can only be regarded as a divine creature in terms of race, not a true god.

As the prayer ended, Filina, Evie, and another honest-looking young man stood up and turned to look at the others.

The three of them were the new qualified pastors of the church, and the honest young man was Haku, who had gone to inform the town's widow of the bad news, and then patiently comforted the two peasant women, one of whom was Shalaby, whom Hunter had said about having a relationship with the mayor of the town.

Filina and Evie are saints, Haku is a priest, because Evie is still a virgin, she is much higher than Philina, this is what Shepard meant, the general concept of the New World is still that the virgin is unknown, he wants to reverse this misconception in the territory of the church, too chaotic relationship between men and women is not conducive to the purity of faith and social stability, so he also plans to promote the sanctity of marriage relationship after a while.

Evie and Firina were to the left of the idol, and Haku was to the right of the idol, and they called a man and a woman to them, and Filina picked up the two plain white clothes that had been placed at the offering table, exactly the same style as they were wearing.

Both sides said in unison: "Natalie (Rook), your devotion is appreciated by our Lord, and from this day onwards you will be our Lord's messenger who walks among men. ”

The two new clergy knelt down on one knee to take the Church's standard white robe and respectfully replied: "May the kingdom of my Lord ascend to the heavens and be with the world!" ”
