Chapter 1213: Chapter 1213: Another Large-Scale Clash
With the large influx of population, Zhao Guang has no way to categorize them ticulously.
There’s no choice; now it’s a mix of fish and dragons, with all sorts of people.
Among them, there are so people that make Zhao Guang headache, especially those Temple followers. The Temple isn’t provoked; rather, they seize this opportunity and see it as a good chance to spread their faith.
As a result, so Temple mbers pretend to be refugees and sneak into the Xuanwu Kingdom.
This marks the second ti Temple mbers have entered since Zhao Guang cleaned his territory of Temple people.
But this ti, there’s no way to drive them away, and there’s no ans to conduct investigations.
There are just too many people, and many already hold faith, so even very resolute faith.
In a situation where it can’t be refused, causing great chaos would offend the Divine. After all, on the surface, Zhao Guang still needs to allow the Divine to preach.
Conversely, on the Delan Continent, Zhao Guang himself cannot spread faith.
“How to handle these Temple people? If we let them continue to grow, it will be troubleso. They have already started building churches, seemingly paying for it themselves due to the stimulation from last ti.”
Xi Fei understands the Temple, as it’s been making quite a stir recently.
Because the Kingdom doesn’t preferentially treat the Temple, its developnt slow down last ti.
They learned a lesson this ti, as the newcors bring their own money. So even start businesses, using the profits to support the cause, speeding up the developnt very fast.
Thus, Zhao Guang can’t openly oppose them, as the Divine in this world truly exist.
“I didn’t expect them to seize this opportunity, but since they did, we can retaliate.”
Thinking it over, Zhao Guang says, “First, identify the most steadfast ones and migrate them to our Land of Faith.” Hearing this, Xi Fei shows a beautiful smile.
The Divine indeed value faith, but they don’t focus on individual followers.
The mortal world has its own operating rules, and Zhao Guang’s Land of Faith belongs to him.
If they continue propagating the Divine faith in Zhao Guang’s sphere of Power of Faith, it is their fault.
At that point, even if Zhao Guang deals with them, no one will say anything. After all, they are refugees, not Temple people, and acting within the rules, a King like Zhao Guang is capable of many things.
Imagine these steadfast Divine followers turning to worship Zhao Guang, or even worship an Enchantress; what a scene would that be. They’ll surely crumble knowing this.
Once they’re sent there, arrangents will be made, ensuring they won’t return.
“Master, this strategy is excellent. At least those Temple agents, who have infiltrated and are most capable of causing trouble, will be finished. However, among those sent, many are hidden, probably planning to erge once settled.”
Zhao Guang nods, “Of course. I just want to suppress their initial montum.”
“As for the others, once they arrive, we only need to ensure they live well.”
Zhao Guang knows that the harder life gets, the more resolute people’s faith becos.
It’s an interesting transformation, because only hardship makes people seek gods and worship, much like Earth. When people get wealthy, although they spend more on the Divine, it’s to get more.
As for how devout they really are, let’s not kid ourselves. Just look at the inferior quality Power of Faith to know.
The better life becos, coupled with enlightennt, Divine faith will inevitably face challenges.
Zhao Guang isn’t targeting the Divine; it’s just that Temple mbers have been opposed to him from the start. Additionally, if Divine faith grows too strong, it poses a major threat to state control.
Look at the Borick Continent; most countries are actually controlled by the Temple.
On the surface, it seems fine, but the Temple wields incredible influence with no resistance.
“Besides, let the propaganda departnt relax its restrictions, allowing civilians to start their own entertainnt companies.”
Zhao Guang had considered this earlier but hadn’t permitted it yet.
Once it’s allowed, it affects people’s daily lives. Gradually, they beco more interested in entertainnt, potentially affecting work ethos. His nation is just beginning to develop.
With a lack of personnel, the demand for manpower is significant.
But with the upcoming influx of refugees, the situation changes drastically.
There’s no shortage of hands, possibly facing an excess of people with nowhere to place them. So, developing productivity and directing the populace to entertainnt is ideal.
Faith is laborious, causing ntal fatigue and extre boredom.
When abundant entertainnt becos accessible, those adhering to Divine faith naturally get distracted. Over ti, they drift away from the Temple.
Aside from a few vested interests, others won’t heed the Temple’s ramblings.
“Let’s proceed with that strategy. Too bad they can’t be completely eradicated.”
Xi Fei knows, with Divine existence in the world, followers can’t be entirely eradicated. The Divine won’t permit it, and should it go that way, they’d retaliate by all ans.
Zhao Guang shrugs, “People’s minds are inherently peculiar.”
Being from Earth, Zhao Guang understands these beliefs aren’t easily extinguished. So always use faith to achieve goals, causing followers to proliferate like persistent weeds.
Even odd scenarios like the deity of canned yellow peaches arise, baffling as they are.
In the Otherworld, if such enigmatic Divine nas erge, they’d gather faith and might even birth a new Divine, purely a faith-based god.
“In summary, restraint is the current course, not complete eradication.”
“I’ll go notify the others.” Xi Fei won’t directly tell the people what they plan, just guide them to the next steps. Their actions inherently benefit the nation.
So many people need proper arrangents, or it’ll spell trouble.
