Struggle in the Steam Age - Chapter 685
“What, do we still have a lot of things to do?” After hearing what Lawrence said, Nora said with a look of shock, “I thought it would be enough as long as everything remains as it is?”
“Under normal circumstances, it is indeed as you said, everything can be kept as it is.” Seeing Nora’s innocent expression, Lawrence showed a helpless look.
“But the problem is that the process of becoming a **** is so fast, and the process of becoming a **** is also special. So much so that we have not done a lot of things now.”
“For example, we have not yet formulated a suitable internal rule for the future church, and for example, we do not have the most important scriptures for a god.”
“Can’t you change other people’s scriptures and systems and reuse them?” Obviously, even if the little doll Nara ignited the sacred fire, she still maintained her original inconspicuous character.
“For example, I think the overall feeling of the Church of Knowledge is good, and the general direction of the Church of the Crucifixion is correct, but it is a bit too harsh for myself—
“Please, this is not homework, how can you copy each other indiscriminately?” “After listening to what the little doll said, even though Lawrence is just a projection of consciousness now, he feels that his blood pressure is rising, and there is an urge to complain.
“Okay, okay. I see.” After sensing Lawrence’s mood, Nora immediately changed the subject.
“But why did the priests never tell me this news on the road before, instead they all told me that as long as the sacred fire is lit, everything is much easier, and there is not much work to do.”
“Maybe they are worried about adding pressure to you and making you nervous.” Lawrence inexplicably thought of the high school teachers who said they would be relieved after going to college.
“It’s possible, after all, they need to do their best to ignite the sacred fire, so it’s kind of them to hide some unimportant things.” The little doll nodded and said with approval.
“By the way, you just said that there is a lot of work to be done next, can you tell us what we need to do next?”
“Our next work needs to build everything needed for an entire church. In fact, under normal circumstances, others have already established some preliminary organizations at this time.”
Having said that, Lawrence shook his head helplessly. “But because our accumulation of this aspect previously relied entirely on certain traditions of the Jackals of that astral plane, we must start from scratch in this aspect.”
“Building a church from scratch, this is really–” After frowning in some anguish, the little doll immediately showed an expression of sudden realization. “You are now my chief priest, so the next questions are up to you.”
Sure enough, even though the little doll has ignited the sacred fire, the various cognitions are still the same as when she was an ordinary constructed life. For example, throw the pot to Lawrence when you don’t want to do anything.
“Please, all of the things in the churches of the gods are designed by those gods a little bit. There is no outsourcing of this thing.”
Lawrence said helplessly. But looking at Nora’s pleading eyes, he finally couldn’t hold it after a few seconds of pause. “Okay, okay, I will help you, but you also have to do this job, you can’t give it all to me.”
“Of course, this is my church after all, how could I not give anything at all.” After hearing that Lawrence was willing to help herself, Nora’s face immediately burst into a smile.
I have to say that after lighting the sacred fire, the little doll is indeed a lot stronger than before, so this smile even made Lawrence shocked for a second or two.
Fortunately, there is a special connection between the two sides, so Lawrence quickly recovered. However, he felt that if an ordinary person was here, he might be completely attracted by this smile and become a believer in the puppet.
“Then we are going to start work next, but I am in Green Island now, even if I rush back now, it should take two weeks to come back.” After both sides were calm, Lawrence told Nara what was next Arrangement for a period of time.
“Actually, you can be back in five days.” Hearing what Lawrence said, Nora replied the first time. “You only need to take a boat to the Saint Nixe Islands, the northernmost part of the Silver Federation, where there is a fast airship field belonging to the court.”
“As my current highest-ranking clergyman, you have the right to bring relatives and luggage not exceeding one person’s weight in a fast airship to rush back to Neusauer Island by air relay.”
“Abuse of power is not a good thing, my dear Nora.” After listening to the little doll’s advice, Lawrence shook his head subconsciously. “I’m not some rigid person, but—”
“Don’t worry, this is an official business.” said the little doll, who had the same three views as Lawrence. “As the highest-ranking clergyman under my command, you should have returned as quickly as possible after I lighted the sacred fire.”
“According to tradition, the fast airship is already the lowest-grade existence. This is mainly because the place where you are now is too desolate. Otherwise, at this time, I should let you and Sister Sefil directly use the space to teleport.”
“Well, I will come here as soon as possible.” Lawrence showed a smile on his face. “Next, you go out to show your face and comfort the people outside. And I also want to inform everyone of the good news, and after all is done, everyone can relax before talking.”
After finishing the communication, Lawrence woke up all at once. When he walked out of the door, he saw that Syfiel had heard the movement in the room and came out to greet him.
“How is the situation now?” Saifei asked nervously.
“Everything is going well, but now Nanara needs our help, so we hurriedly pack up and prepare to go back.” Lawrence said and looked at the clock in the corner, only to find that only three hours had passed.
By 4 o’clock in the afternoon that day, Lawrence and Syfiel had arrived at the pier and were preparing to leave the island. At this time, Viscount Surrey and several nearby nobles hurried to the dock to see them off.
Behind them, a large-scale building is being built. This is the church that these people built for Nora after they knew that she had successfully completed the ascension ceremony.
The reason why this group of people built this church is also very simple. On the one hand, the generation of the Northern Islands is so desolate that no other gods besides the God of Suffering are willing to pay attention here.
Therefore, after Nora successfully completed the ascension ceremony and grasped part of the power of the gods, out of seeking more help for the island, UU read www. These noble lords of uukanshu.com are naturally willing to spread her faith in this area.
In addition, although the two sides are conducting fair trade. But in the eyes of these lords, if it hadn’t been for Lawrence’s best effort to help, they would not have found such a development advance opportunity.
In other words, according to the tradition of the nobility, these lords are equivalent to owing a very important favor to Lawrence. Regardless of whether it is for aristocrats or ordinary people, the thing of favor cannot just be owed.
Therefore, after the puppets successfully completed the ascension ceremony and appointed Lawrence as their highest-ranking clergy, these nobles immediately set about building three small temples dedicated to Nora at the same time.
In the eyes of the nobles of Surrey, these temples can not only bless the development of the island, but also pay some favors like Lawrence, so it is obviously a win-win approach.
“Don’t worry, all work will go on smoothly.” Taking advantage of the last half an hour of the boat’s final preparation, Lawrence stood on the trestle and came forward to comfort his several nobles.
“After I go back, I will complete this work as soon as possible, and then gradually normalize our economic cooperation and trade.”
