StarCraft: From The Weakest Race To The Interstellar

Chapter 53 The State Religion of the Empire (For Support)

Of course, Lu Ming is no stranger to the state religion of the empire.

The state religion of the Empire, formerly known as the Temple of the Emperor Salvation, was established in the thirtieth millennium of the Empire and is located on the planet Terra.

The original purpose of the establishment of the Empire State Church was actually to provide guidance and faith for the people of the Empire in that darkest age.

After the Emperor’s supreme sacrifice in the dark ages.

Worship and admiration for the Emperor swept across the Empire, reaching a climax.

The preachers of the Holy See were widely active in all corners of the empire at this time.

And claim that the Emperor still protects his people.

Under the propaganda of the Holy See, and people’s spontaneous love for the Emperor.

The fanatical believers soon spread throughout the empire.

The Temple of the Salvation Emperor was a member of these Holy Sees, and it rose rapidly during this period to unify the other sects.

However, as hundreds of millions of Imperial residents continued to join the worship of the Emperor.

In the thirty-second millennium, almost two-thirds of the empire followed the creed of the Holy See.

Then, thanks to the huge influence of the Holy See, it was officially recognized by the empire as the state religion of the empire, and was identified as the official religion of the empire.

However, the expansion of the Holy See eventually led to bad results.

In the thirty-sixth millennium, the Empire ushered in the Age of Apostasy.

Countless people died in times of apostasy.

For this reason, the Age of Apostasy is also known as the Blood Dynasty.

It means that this period is an era of sin forged with blood.

The most well-known state religion of the empire is actually the state religion of the empire after the reconstruction.

In order to prevent the tragedy from happening again, the state religion of the empire at this time, through reform, completely divided the power of the Holy See.

“Mio, does Holy Terra really need spiritual belief?”

To be honest, as a transmigrator, Lu Ming was born with some disgust towards the Holy See beliefs and the like.

It may also be because he had no religious beliefs in his previous life, and he always felt that the so-called creeds of those people were an alternative version of pyramid schemes.

For brainwashing ignorant people.

But at the same time, Lu Ming had to admit.

Faith can really be a force that no one can ignore sometimes.

Especially in times when the world is tough and people can’t see hope.

Human beings, when they are in despair, will long for something that can place their hopes on them.

And the Holy See played this role very well.

“Your Majesty, a common belief can enhance the cohesion of an empire.”

Mio didn’t say anything.

Whether the imperial state religion is established or not depends on what Lu Ming means.

The reason why Mio mentioned the matter of the state religion of the empire was that Mio thought of it by accident after listening to Tang Siyi’s remarks.

It is her duty to remind Lu Ming, as for whether Lu Ming does or not, it is Lu Ming’s own business.

In this kind of decision, Mio would never interfere with Lu Ming’s decision.

Improve cohesion?

For this, Lu Ming certainly knew.

But at the same time, the state religion of the empire will also mythology the emperor himself, and derive the concept of personality cult.

Personality cult is not a good phenomenon.

If the object of worship is the emperor who is wise and martial, it will be fine, it can indeed make the empire develop rapidly.

But what if the person being admired is a mediocrity?

No one can imagine what it will be like at that time.

But then again, Lu Ming didn’t dare to say how smart and how evil he was.

But I don’t consider myself a mediocrity.

What’s more, there is a talented person like Mio by his side.

So he doesn’t need to worry about the so-called personality cult.

Moreover, he can also avoid the apostasy era experienced in the development stage of the imperial state religion.

For Lu Ming, the imperial state religion is to provide faith for the people of the empire and enhance the cohesion of the empire.

But put aside these appearances, deep analysis will reveal.

In fact, the imperial state religion is essentially a tool.

A tool to help the Emperor better control the Empire.

There are two aspects to ruling a country, one is the macroscopic material aspect and the other is the spiritual aspect.

And the state religion is the tool that helps the Emperor to inform the spiritual dimension of the Empire.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming felt a little moved.

In addition to the human race, there are many other races in Endless Xingyu.

You must know that except for the native race, which is 100% loyal to the star master, other races are not like this.

To conquer a planet, either wipe out all the creatures on that planet, or adopt a colonization strategy.

For the latter, the necessary surveillance means are indispensable.

At this time, the importance of the Imperial State Church Inquisition can be highlighted.

There are three Great Inquisitions of the Empire State Church, the Heresy Inquisition, the Alien Inquisition, and the final Demonic Inquisition.

As the saying goes: The Inquisition of Heresy brings out heresies, the Inquisition of Alien has aliens, and the Inquisition of Demons summons demons.

Cough cough!

Among them, the Heresy Tribunal is somewhat similar to the role of the monitor.

The Inquisition of Heresy will clean up the deepest sins of the empire, and some institutions are similar to Jinyiwei.

The famous Battle Sisters is an armed organization under the Inquisition of Heresy.

So, leave everything else aside.

The Empire State Religion is an armed force that should not be underestimated for the Empire.

After thinking about this, Lu Ming knew that he actually had a decision.

It’s just that now is not the time to deal with this matter, after all, his planetary defense battle is not over yet.

If you really want to establish an imperial state religion, it is definitely not a trivial matter.

This requires a detailed plan.

Lu Ming intends to discuss this matter with Mio in the future and come up with a specific charter.

“This matter will not be disclosed to the public for the time being, and we will plan in detail later.”

In the car, Mio nodded.

From Lu Ming’s words, Mio already knew the answer.

The Krieg Death Corps supported the main force and quickly approached the third sector.

The battle in the third district was fraught, and neither Lu Ming nor Hannah knew this all too well.

So the march of reinforcements was very fast.

On the other side, the capital city periphery of the third district.

Tang Siyi looked at the army of Rippers not far away, her voice almost hoarse.

“Is the Vulcan Cannon still good?!”

“Load faster, haven’t you eaten yet?!”

“And give the old lady a hard shot, the battery compartment is enough!”

In the simple fortifications, Tang Siyi shouted loudly.

Blackstone didn’t know what to say about the almost 360-degree turn in his Queen’s personality.

Is this “old lady” person really the most respected Queen by their dwarves?
