Alien Knights

Chapter 396 The Spread of Religious Influence

Todd glanced at the top of Rachel's head, remembering the "Resurrection Worm" in the iron box, and was a little curious for a moment, what was this woman like before occupying Mia's body?

The current Rachel is a rare beauty in terms of appearance and temperament. But Todd couldn't imagine what she looked like in the past.

Maybe she looks very ordinary, her voice is not as beautiful as it is now, and her figure may be very bloated...

etc!

Todd suddenly remembered a creepy thing, Rachel must have been a man before, right? !

She (she) only said that she and Mia were good friends, but never mentioned the past gender.

Todd screamed in his heart, God! If she (he) is really a man! I also did so many unsightly things with this person, played so many embarrassing poses...

Looking at Todd's uncertain face, Rachel thought that the other party was shocked by Mia's matter, so she explained: "I didn't tell you about Mia in the past because I didn't know how to speak."

Todd collected himself and nodded calmly: "Whoever it is, it's hard to say such a thing."

After an awkward silence, Rachel and Todd were drinking, they didn't know what to say, they were just thinking about their own thoughts.

When Rachel finished drinking a can of beer, she suddenly asked Todd: "That world has advanced theories and advanced science, so can you tell me what the soul is?"

Todd was a little surprised by this question. After thinking about it for a while, he said helplessly, "To be honest, I don't know."

"Isn't there an exact answer about the soul in your omnipotent world?"

"That's right, even in my world, the soul is an unsolved puzzle, but if we look at it from the philosopher's explanation, the definition of the soul should include two major connotations: logic and memory."

Richelton paused: "Philosophy? Logic and memory?"

"This is a theory I heard from a philosophy professor: if human beings have a soul, it should include two major connotations: logic and memory in a broad sense. Logic in a broad sense includes thinking orientation, value ethics, and decision-making methods; memory in a broad sense includes life experience and truth cognition."

Rachel shook her head: "It sounds complicated, are these theories of that professor?"

Todd stroked his chin, recalling his elective career in the past, and said uncertainly: "If I remember correctly, these theories come from a scholar named Hegel."

Rachel bit her lip, hesitated again and again, and suddenly asked a strange question: "If an evil person creates a copy of her for a certain purpose, then, will the soul of this copy also be evil?"

Rachel's words have completely stunned Todd.

"Sorry, Rachel, too many professional disciplines are involved in this, including genetics, physiology... Moreover, the soul itself is a thing that no one understands, and I can't give you an accurate answer."

Depressed, Rachel threw the soda can on the table, stood up, and wanted to leave the soul space.

Thinking of the "Resurrection Worm" and the other party's identity, Todd said, "Rachel, there are some things I want to ask you..."

"Todd, I'm sorry, I'm in a really bad mood right now, I'm afraid I can't answer your question..."

Looking at Rachel's pale face, Todd swallowed the words that came to his lips, and swallowed them again.

Todd nodded to Rachel and said, "Take a good rest, let's talk again next time we have a chance."

Rachel's figure disappeared into the space.

After finishing the beer in the research institute, Todd sighed as he looked at the empty room.

Back in the real world, Todd watched Rachel push open the door and leave quietly, then called Hudgens who was waiting at the door.

"Your Majesty, your complexion is not good. What happened?" Huggins looked at Todd and said with some concern.

Todd signaled the other party not to care, and asked, "How are you preparing for the ceremony to establish the Protestant Church?"

"The overall layout of the cathedral has been completed, the teaching explanatory books have been printed, and the list of Protestants has been drawn up..."

"Has the invitation to the ceremony been sent?"

Hearing Todd mention this matter, Huggins hesitated when answering: "Seven hundred invitations to the ceremony were sent out a month ago..."

"How's the feedback?"

"There are 130 reply letters confirming participation, most of which are scholars, chambers of commerce and clergy..."

Todd frowned and asked, "What about the secular royal family's reply?"

As Huggins said, he took a careful look at Todd's expression: "There are only two copies, one is Queen Mary from St. Acropolis, and the other is Regent Jennings from Lone Rock City."

Hearing an unexpected name, Todd immediately became interested: "Lonely Rock City?"

Huggins nodded and said, "Jennings replied that since the Queen of Lone Rock is still young, he will attend the founding ceremony of the Protestant Church in his personal capacity."

"You are still young? Personal identity?" Todd smiled helplessly, "This Jennings will shirk responsibility, he does not want to offend the church, but also wants to curry favor with us."

Huggins added at this time: "Your Majesty, I don't think you need to worry about the attitude of the secular kingdom at all. We just won the battle of the Holy Acropolis, and the results of the war have not yet spread. When the secular kingdom knows everything, they will naturally know how to stand in line."

After hearing this, Todd nodded unconsciously in agreement and said, "It makes sense, anyway, there are still two months before the establishment of Protestantism, so it might not be a bad thing to wait any longer."

In fact, the news of the defeat of the church coalition forces spread much faster than Todd imagined.

A great battle that has not happened in the parish for hundreds of years has attracted the attention of countless people before it started.

The outcome of the war was beyond everyone's expectations. No one could have imagined that the coalition forces would be defeated so badly and so quickly.

Of the 15,000-strong army, less than half of them actually returned home safely, and among them, less than ten people from the troops directly under the church came back alive.

After the end of this war, the power situation of the entire parish changed dramatically.

The power and influence of the church plummeted, and the power class of the secular kingdom gradually rose. The latter allowed and even incited the people in the country to set off a wave of anti-church by using excuses such as church taxes and scandals.

On the other hand, for the first time, the superiority of alien power has entered the military halls of various kingdoms. Powerful units such as Death Knight, Sniper Successor, Elemental Successor and Alien Heavy Infantry have completely opened the eyes of the kings who were immersed in sword and shield in the past.

The major kingdoms began to pay more and more attention to the use of alien powers, and the raids and massacres originally aimed at alien species were abolished one after another. The alien species with powerful abilities also ended the days of hiding in the XZ, and became the chief consultant and the guest of the royal family.

But compared with these, there is one biggest new thing that has come into everyone's field of vision-Music Protestantism.

Muxi City, with its powerful military and economic strength, intends to establish a Protestantism aimed at reforming religion, suppressing theocracy, and exempting taxes, and has become the savior that almost everyone is chasing after.

Farmers who joined Protestantism could no longer suffer from tithes; merchants and nobles who joined Protestantism could get rid of the trouble of indulgences;

After the Protestant church ceremony invitation was issued in Muxi City, there were only a few hundred letters, but more than 4,000 receipts were received.

Distinguished figures from all walks of life asked to observe the establishment of Protestantism one after another, and repeatedly emphasized in their receipts that they were willing to convert to Protestantism.

Too many guests watching the ceremony, coupled with the growing momentum, made Mu Xicheng have to reconsider the process and scale of the ceremony.

The original three-day ceremony was extended to ten days; the original 1,000-seat auditorium was temporarily increased to 5,000.

In order to cope with this huge religious ceremony, it was originally scheduled for early February and took more time to prepare, so it had to be postponed to the end of March.

As time goes by, the winter in Muxi City passes away quietly amidst the hustle and bustle, and the spring that represents the new life of all things is coming.

During the CIIE, the company was busy with everything and the updates were not stable. It will be better after this busy period.
