Upon hearing Kael say this, the Bishop frowned and asked, "It is indeed a good choice, but aren't you worried that such an action might anger the Earth Mother Goddess Church?"
"Not at all, Your Excellency. Currently, the Earth Mother Goddess Church has reached a consensus on how to treat the Undead. They can guide their developnt but will not interfere excessively. This seems to be the intention of the Harvest Goddess."
Yes, in the previous life, the Earth Mother Goddess Church actually did not impose too many restrictions on the players.
They basically had an attitude of "Believe if you like, or don't if you prefer. Co and go as you wish, the Earth Mother Goddess Church welcos all."
Perhaps the bigwigs of the Earth Mother Goddess Church also knew that they could not dictate the beliefs of the players.
This fourth calamity group was like "Schrödinger's Cat"; you never knew their state until the box was opened.
Caviar enthusiasts from the Coral Palace...
Loyal custors of the coconut sheep...
These were still considered the better ones.
After the ga's open beta in the previous life, there were even players who sincerely shared stories about their relationships with fish while praying with a nun from the Earth Mother Goddess Church...
In short, the scene at the ti was chaotic. The nun left the prayer room crying like a child, saying she had been tainted by the Evil God and her spirit was unclean.
Fortunately, at this period, the players' crazy antics had not yet exposed these simple clergy mbers to the truth.
Now, he could still obtain a lot of information about the Earth Mother Goddess Church from Tetou, and he knew their internal attitude toward the Undead had settled and beca the sa as in his previous life.
But Kael still raised an eyebrow and reminded once more:
"You should know, the number of Undead entering Lancaster Territory now is very few, and after so ti, a larger group of Undead will surge into my territory.
How to guide the developnt direction of these divine kingdom visitors is a huge challenge. No one wants to cause a disaster affecting the continent, like the champion of the gods once did."
Of course, when Kael said this, he felt sowhat lacking in confidence.
He was very aware of the ntal state of the players in his previous life; it was absolutely correct to say they were the root cause of future continental turmoil—uncontrollable ones at that.
The old Bishop, looking at this young man who was gradually becoming a significant figure in the Royal Capital, squinted and said:
"If the Earth Mother Goddess Church has no objections, then the Church of the God of Literature will have even fewer issues. But what benefit is there for you, Mr. Kael?"
"While influencing the Undead with the cooperation of many parties, I can also manage my territory. Does that count?" Kael smiled.
The Bishop asked, "Is that all?"
Kael nodded and said, "At least for now, that's how it is. I don't like sches and conspiracies, nor do I enjoy noble airs. My greatest wish is the peace of my territory and myself. But it seems many do not wish for this."
He paused and continued:
"Moreover, for the Church, whether the Undead are willing to beco followers of the God of Literature is not that important.
What matters is whether, following the dissemination of this plan, more ambivalent or believers of other gods and so bards can be turned into followers of the God of Literature, whom you revere, isn't it?"
"Are you so confident that the Undead will have a significant impact on my God's domain?"
Clearly, this Bishop, like their Pontiff, was not soone who would take a moderate approach to avoid conflicts with other deities.
On the contrary, after hearing Kael say this, his ambition almost overflowed from his expression.
Kael smirked slightly and then said, "Your Excellency, you might not know that among the many Undead in Lancaster Territory, quite a few are willing to beco bards.
In the novel and pamphlet dissemination plan I previously ntioned to you, they will be the core force driving Dinel's glory further into niche areas.
You can think about it. These Undead from the divine kingdom have customs and cultures vastly different from the mainland's dominant civilization.
There will certainly be those among them who will translate the unique landscapes of the divine kingdom into elegant words to spread worldwide.
If it were you, would you rather understand the writings of visitors from the divine kingdom or the already worn-out tricks told by bards?
The Bishop squinted his eyes and suddenly understood why this cunning yet beautiful little incubus had caused so much commotion.
Ultimately, experienced elders quickly grasp the true aning Kael wanted to convey.
For the bards already on the mainland, what they wrote were mostly adventure stories that have been over-read by the common folk.
From the plot to the writing style, it gave many people a feeling of "Hey, I've seen this sowhere before," which could not compare to the exotic charm of the Undead.
From nobles to commoners, everyone loved the concept of "elusive yet enticing," and the Bishop could already see people being both wary of the Undead while wanting more contact with them.
"Perhaps you are right. Even the Undead would not reject normal interests' exchange. The legacy they carry from the Shangtiya Divine Country destined them to stir up storms on the mainland." Clearly, the Bishop had been persuaded by Kael.
The God of Literature, Dinel, that he believed in, had left the sight of various races for so long that many no longer regarded him as the Guardian of Seekers.
Though Kael's plan sounded a bit outrageous, as soone who had long cultivated the path of knowledge, the Bishop knew very well—
Many tis, the spread of literature and knowledge depended not rely on quality but largely on whether it t the needs of the broad populace.
Literary works had a threshold for reading; you could not expect everyone to understand the beautiful words on the paper.
So, sotis, the exotic charm brought by the Undead could more effectively expand his deity's domain.
So he squinted and said:
"Our God of Literature and the Magic Goddess have a very close alliance, and the Magic Goddess has a good relationship with the Harvest Goddess. From this point, we indeed stand in the sa camp.
Why not let contact the Archbishop of the Magic Goddess? Since we seriously intend to push this plan, calling more people can ensure adequate funding.
If well executed, it might even be possible to open a teleportation passage between your territory and the Royal Capital's satellite city.
You know, building a stable teleportation passage requires resources far beyond what a territory can bear."
"If you can help, that would be great!" Kael did not refuse. The infrastructure of Lancaster Territory was indeed too poor, and he needed to use the Undead to draw various forces into play.
If handled well, this could allow Kael to make a significant leap for his domain.
The Bishop also showed a gratified smile.
In his eyes, whether the Undead were divine kingdom visitors or not was secondary; what mattered was whether they could bring more benefits to his god.
"For this matter, I need to have a detailed discussion with the Pontiff. If this plan is successfully implented, believe , both my god and his followers will certainly give you the rightful reward. I swear by the na of Dinel's follower."
"Then, a pleasant cooperation." Kael's smile broadened.
The old Bishop suddenly gently stroked the ring on his finger. A flash of light passed, and an obviously well-worn Holy Scripture appeared in his hand. He smiled warmly and said:
"It has been many years since I've t such a likable young lad. You're planning for my god's future. I think my god won't bla an old man for having small expectations of a child.
This Holy Scripture contains my years of thoughts and understanding of Divine Arts. Let this small gift be the beginning of our cooperation.
As a Scroll Scholar, I don't think you would mind having a few more Divine Arts you can transcribe, right?"
As he said this, he showed a mischievous smile.
Kael suppressed a trace of embarrassnt on his face, having been seen through...
These old folks were all wise beyond their years.
