This world church is very different from the one on earth. lā

Because God does exist, only those who know and agree with the doctrine can become clergy, which makes the ranks of the clergy relatively pure, unlike the dirt and dirt that exist on earth. The priesthood of the God of justice must be upheld of justice, the priesthood of the God of courage must be brave and fearless, the priesthood of the God of life must be the lover of life, and the priesthood of death must be honoring death...... There are no exceptions.

However, the gods of this world do not have personalities, they are not so much gods as the "rules" of this world. They are not and cannot be compulsory, and the attitude towards faith and even the priesthood (assuming there is an "attitude" to speak of) is also very mild "good to gather and disperse" - suppose a certain priesthood of the god of death, he has been affected by something and turns to love life, then he can completely change his career to become a priesthood of the god of life, except that he needs to refine his own strength, and the god of death will not hinder him in any way.

There are pros and cons to this situation, on the one hand, it naturally avoids the meaningless loss of talents due to the problem of faith, and on the other hand, the disadvantage is that the churches are not fundamentally compulsory, and it is not so much a compulsory organization, but a mutual aid organization composed of people who agree with the same ideas.

Such an organization is naturally very pure and clean, but there is no strong commanding force. For example, when Panda was exterminating the monsters in Wolf's Den Lake, he had met and communicated with the archbishop of the Church of the Martyr God in the Mulandana area, and he didn't mean to give orders to him at all, and he didn't even bother to ask "where he came from and where he is going".

Of course, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and after a long time, some relatively large churches have slowly developed, and gradually formed a solid organizational system by relying on personnel training and industrial management. Such churches are more coercive and tightly organized than those that do not have a very stable organization.

Church of Death, Church of Life, Church of Courage, Church of Wealth...... There are actually quite a few churches that have reached this level.

The Church of the God of Luck has not been able to reach this level, the influence of this church is not big enough, or in other words, the doctrine of the God of Luck of "work hard and then trust success to luck" is difficult to get people's acceptance, so for a long time, the scale of the Church of the God of Luck has not been able to develop very large.

But this changed dramatically in Giacomo's time, and the powerful man was keen to spread his ideas, and after uniting the powerful men of the South China Sea to besiege the pirate king Barbarossa, he began to build schools everywhere to spread the teachings of the god of luck to the people through education.

It was a long job that took decades to complete, but it paid off in the end. In the final version of "Dragon of Doom", Giacomo's decades-long efforts finally came to fruition, and the Church of Luck was greatly strengthened, completing the transformation from a common church to a powerful church, and he himself became the first pope of the Church of Lucky God.

As Panda and Giacomo walked and talked, they felt more and more that the future pope was extraordinary. When he speaks, he always has a little temptation, constantly testing the panda's insight and ability, but it is not offensive at all, but makes people feel just the right sense of intimacy - the so-called "like a spring breeze" is probably about this situation.

With such a character, it's no wonder that he can achieve great things!

When the two came to the tavern, they saw that it was lively but not noisy, drinking, eating, singing and dancing, and even gambling in the casino on the second floor...... Everything seems to be in order, cluttered but not chaotic.

"This tavern is now pretty much our church's base in Flying Fish Harbor. "We have our altar in the back, but because of the small size of the church, it hasn't grown to the point of building a temple." ”

"With you as a priest, I believe it won't be long before there will be a temple. Panda said.

He wasn't bragging, Giacomo spent most of his youth walking around the Southern Isles, building temples of the Church of the God of Fortune in one port after another, and each time he built one, he would move on to the next.

This job will not change until he steps into the legendary realm in the future and participates in the Battle of the Pirate King's Fall.

Giacomo shook his head: "I used to think about building more temples, but now I feel that maybe I should consider changing my approach. ”

The panda was slightly stunned and looked at him suspiciously.

"Some time ago, I met a couple of interesting adventurers. Although they always pestered me and asked me if there were any 'tasks' to do, they also said a lot of things that touched me. "They say that the best way to proselytize is for children, and the best way is to educate." I thought about it for a while and felt it made sense. The reason why the ideas of our church are not accepted by people is not because we have wrong ideas, but because many people have preconceived ideas and are unwilling to accept our ideas. ”

"It's different with children, whose thoughts are a blank slate. As long as we take advantage of the fact that this blank piece of paper has not yet been painted, we will instill in them the philosophy of our church in advance, and even if many of them change their minds in the future, they will still maintain our philosophy...... Although this method requires a lot of time, the effect is very stable and worth considering. ”

The panda frowned slightly and asked, "Those adventurers...... What kind of people are they?"

"It's hard for me to describe. "They're a little poor, but they don't have the downbeat feeling of poor adventurers." They were clearly well-educated, and everyone was literate, but in battle, they showed unsettling bravery, as if they did not care about life and death at all. This is very unreasonable, with their strength, they should not be so poor, nor should they be so indifferent to their own lives. ”..

The corners of the panda's mouth curled slightly, and he already understood what was going on.

The adventurers who had come into contact with Giacomo before him and introduced Giacomo to the methods that the Pope would only use in the future were obviously the same as himself.

I just don't know who they are, and I don't know what they're getting out of doing that.

"And then, what happened to them?" Panda asked.

"They said that they were going to the south and communicate with the mermaids, and they also said that one mountain could not accommodate two tigers, and that sooner or later there would be a turn between the mermaid queen and the pirate king, and they wanted to see a lively scene, so they left. ”

"Oh, are you interested?"

"No, the battle between the legendary powerhouses is still too dangerous for me. Giacomo shook his head, "However, if one day, I also become a legendary powerhouse, I will definitely help the mermaid queen, fight against the brutal pirate king, and maintain the peace of the sea!"

"That's what they say?" Panda asked.

Giacomo shrugged: "They said I would definitely be able to become a legendary powerhouse...... I don't know how they have so much faith in me. ”

The panda couldn't help but laugh - these companions of his own are really spoilers!
