Chapter 788: Prelude to War?
As for the concept of religion, Patrick believes that it is simply a interest group, or a large corporation, that has nothing to do with the gods.
Are there still few gods in Azeroth? Let's not talk about animal gods. Which of the Titans of creation cannot be honored as a god? If only from the point of view of strength, even the fully embodied Akmund and Kilgardan have reached the standard of God. Even Patrick is only one twisted rule away from the realm of the void god, and Patrick has never felt like a god.
In Patrick's eyes, religion is essentially just a spiritual product, or a spiritual type of reading, and the reason why the so-called teachings and propositions of religion can be widely disseminated is, strictly speaking, a derivative of real social problems, and religion is actually a kind of spiritual sustenance to make up for this problem.
As long as there is a society with strict hierarchies and complete solidification of classes, the spread of this religious concept will become more and more widespread. The population at the bottom needs spiritual support to comfort themselves, the population at the bottom needs a psychotropic drug that paralyzes the people at the bottom, and even some people are just looking for spiritual catharsis. Thus the monotheistic religion came into being, and it was especially popular, allowing all congregations to work equally for a high deity in order to achieve the goals of the doctrine.
With the development of religion, an interest group will gradually be formed, similar to a collective such as a chaebol and a political party, and then gradually reach out to the real society. It is almost entirely a matter of luck as to what religion will eventually become, and what will become of those doctrines that do not matter what they do and what they do not matter.
Even in Quel'Thalas, before Patrick's series of reforms, the Sunstrider family had the right to sacrifice to the arcane similar to religion, and this right was exclusive to the Sunstrider family, and the parliamentary faction only had the right to participate. It's just that this sacrificial right is to put it bluntly, that is, the control of the sunwell, and the parliamentary faction can only enjoy the executive power, so the class solidification brought about is very serious.
And the high elf family, which forms a high-level class, has mastered 99.99% of the rising channel of the whole society, and ordinary high elves want to get ahead, except to cling to the big family, there is no way out, and even if they rely on the big family to slowly boil, there is a 99.99% chance that they will not survive.
There is a clearest example, Darkan De La Heir back then, was attached to the Sun Yi family, but in the eyes of Señor Sun Yi, Darkan was just a pawn, and his Dra Heel family was just a big chess piece, and it was the kind that could be discarded at any time.
At that time, Señor knew the news of the tribal invasion, but he let it go, and sat back and watched the Darkan family's territory Jinwu Village, Jinzhi Valley and other places being slaughtered, but afterwards, Señol found Darkan and asked him to merge the Drahir family and the Sunwing family.
However, what Darkan didn't know was that Señol was a normal operation, and the family that was so annexed by the Japanese wing was definitely not the only one in Drahir.
In fact, the Drahir family has really come to an end here in Quel'Salas, and the five major families of the council will not give Darkan any chance to climb to the position of the executive director of the council, unless, like Patrick, Darkan is crushed by hard power, reaches the standard of the arcane rank, and automatically becomes the executive director.
Otherwise, there is only one other way, and Darkan also chose this way, that is, to cooperate with foreign enemies and use strong external forces to re-divide the class, and the Scourge Army that invaded Quel'Thalas at that time was Darkan's choice.
Therefore, Patrick strictly forbade any religious forces, but also guaranteed the passage of democracy, so that the common people could ascend the channel, prevent the solidification of the class, and ensure the mobility of the class.
The partnership between the Kingdom of Gilneth and the Panda People and the Convention has basically been decided, and the next move of the head of Zhu is to transform the Zhou family's farmland into a new seat of inquiry. v5
This is also a helpless move, the Double Moon Hall and the Seven Star Hall have been destroyed, and there is only a foundation left of the original Asking Seat, and Ulduar is docked above the Zhou family's farmland, and a large teleportation circle is built directly below, after the new Asking Throne is established, this will be the core location connecting the Arcane Convention Headquarters --- the City of Sunshine.
Zhu Talan squinted the panda's eyes and muttered for a moment, saying: "Now our priority is to rebuild the Splendid Valley, as for the specific cooperative relationship, we need to discuss it carefully with the emperor before we can give a clear answer." ”
"Don't delay too long, I have many other things to deal with in the future, give us an answer as soon as possible, the portal here leads directly to the City of Daylight, no matter what your relationship with us is, the things I arrange will not be affected." Patrick didn't care, whatever they did.
In the future, according to Patrick's plan, Azeroth will usher in another big change, and it will be decisive for Elune's future.
Patrick asked Aurelia to return to Quel'Salas first, and the other Arcane Covenant high-level leaders began to prepare, the Arcane Convention Supreme Council Plenum.
Patrick himself, on the other hand, stayed in the Fairview Valley, waited for Tannred to arrive, and teleported directly to Kul Tiras, where he consulted with him on some preparations.
Returning to his homeland, as soon as Kurtilas's ship docked, Patrick teleported away in the Fairview Valley and directly arrived at the ship's teleportation circle, which was the first time Patrick came to Kurtilas's capital, Boralles.
"Grand Lord Cabolon, please." Seeing the people coming, Thanred didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and even the honor guard to greet Patrick was a king's specification.
Patrick nodded, floating beside Thanred, Gina Golden Sword, no, it should be called Gina Proudmore to personally lead a group of lords and nobles to greet him.
"Your arrival has made the Strongmore Fortress of Proudmoor shine." Gina Proudmore made an inviting gesture.
Gina's daughter, Fena Proudmore, is now based in the City of Daylight as an ambassador, while she herself assists Thanred in power in Boralles. Originally, as a product of King Dalin's youth and vigor, it should be the best choice for Gina to stay outside, but Thanred resolutely invited Gina back.
Patrick slowly followed Tanred through the interior of the fortress to the garden on the periphery of Strongmore Fortress, Gina prepared a grand ceremony for Patrick's arrival, the surrounding nobles were all dressed up, and the open-air symphony orchestra had already begun to play, however, Patrick was not here for the feast, he had more important things: "Let's get started." ”
"I need you to start building large merchant ships, passenger ships, troop carriers, and even warships, in any number."
