Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 149 - God Said

Chapter 149: God Said

To be honest, Heath was quite moved by these girls’ flirtatious and seductive looks. Although he had bought them to help with the housework, he did not deny that he had dirty thoughts in this regard.

But now was obviously not the time.

Heath frowned and said in a slightly stern tone, “Put on your clothes properly. This is not a joke.”

The girls felt wronged.

“Master… But… But… But we can’t do this…”

“Yeah, we haven’t learned it…”

“We… We’ve only learned how to make men comfortable and how to make men like us, but now you’re asking us to be reserved and dignified… What is this…”

“Try us. You haven’t even used us. We’re very obedient…”

A girl, yet she was more proud of it than a man’s products. This was something that could only be done by someone who had no self-respect.

It seemed a little unbelievable, but that was the reality.

When the slave traders arrived at the girls, they would use beatings and torture to brainwash them. Through continuous brainwashing, they would tell the girls that their life was just a tool to vent men’s lust and provide entertainment for others.

Of course, there were those who tried to resist brainwashing, but the survival of the fittest was eliminated. These girls were beaten, tortured, cooked, and eliminated over and over again.

The rest were slaves who accepted the idea that they had become a ‘tool’ and were willing to let people stuff things into them to live. They were truly slaves who had lost their dignity and personality.

Heath frowned.

It was definitely impossible for the girls to become nuns and priests in such a manner. However, what was difficult was that he did not have any good ways to change them for the time being.

The brainwashing that these girls had experienced was carried out in the context of the current era. It had already left a deep imprint of the era. In their minds, they were slaves and they were tools.

It was as if the commoners knew that they would always be commoners, and the nobles knew that they would always be nobles. It was as if the private property was sacred and inviolable.

This was a perception that was in accordance with the context of the era. Unless the era changed, the chaos ended, the slaves were completely banned, and the owners of the slaves were all beheaded, and there was no need to worry about being beaten to death or boiled if they resisted…

The girls would not be able to make any changes.

To put it simply, whoever won them would help whoever won them, and whoever won them would believe in them.

“Forget it, we’ll talk about it after the end of summer mass. Right now, we should focus on practicing first. No matter if it’s disguising or being stubborn, everything will be fine after the end of summer mass…”

Strictly speaking, Heath’s Holy Church of Light was still in the initial stage of development. The shop was still under renovation, and the core members of the Holy Church and the organization structure were still not ready.

He decided to hold a mass on the last day of the summer, the traditional end-of-summer celebration day, as the official opening ceremony of the Holy Church.

Churches, nuns, and other things were all prepared for this.

Heath was speechless. Could these girls still be saved? Perhaps only the gods could save them.

Heath said, “How about this? I promise you that as long as you perform well, I will reward you after the end-of-summer mass ends. But for now, we need to keep a distance. This is for your own good.”

During the period when Wizards had just advanced, the elemental radiation was very strong. Intimate contact with humans might have a great impact on them.

“Ah? Really?”

“Okay, as long as it is your request, Master, we will do it.”

“Irene will also work hard.”

The girls were full of enthusiasm.

Phew!

It was finally settled.

Heath finally breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, it would not be easy to find a group of qualified nuns in such a short period of time.

“There are still too few people…”

In reality, Heath realized how difficult it was to build a team. There were a lot of vacancies for nuns, missionaries, and priests. He could not even find a few who could read, let alone someone who could help him preach.

Other than the basic staff, the higher-ups were even more miserable. It could be said that they were a complete blank.

Knock, knock, knock! At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the room.

The girls, whose clothes were untidy, hurriedly picked up the clothes on the floor to cover their bashfulness. It wasn’t that their sense of shame was acting up, but because they were their master’s personal belongings. They couldn’t give themselves to other men without their master’s permission.

“Master, let’s go inside and change.”

“Go, go.”

The girls went into the room while Heath walked over and opened the door.

Outside the door stood an old man in a brown robe. This was Merrius, the former Grand Secretary of the palace. He was one of the more knowledgeable members of Heath’s team.

More than half of the nobles in the city had run away. There were too many people lacking. After Heath discussed with Tiffany, he told her to go back and find someone. After Tiffany left, Merrius stayed by his side and took over the original work of Tiffany. He helped complete the initial creation of the Holy Church.

Compared to Tiffany, Heath felt that this knowledgeable Grand Secretary was more capable in his work.

Merrius bowed and said, “I have already done all the things that you have arranged for me. However, I think we still need to discuss many details. It might take some time for you.”

Heath pointed at the chair beside him. “Sit down and talk.”

“Yes.”

Merrius held a few books in his hands. He sat down and handed them to Heath one by one.

“Take a look. These are the clothes of the clergy. They are all designed according to your requirements. They are mainly in white, gold, and red. The heraldry uses the flower of the Holy Spirit…”

“Also, this is the etiquette of the Holy Church. I have selected this from the etiquette of various countries. Do you think the God of Light is satisfied…”

“The title and structure of the personnel organization are arranged like this. The top floor is the Pope and the Holy Church’s 24 divisions are the Inquisition, the Knights, the Bishop’s office, the tax collection…”

From the way the clergy dressed, the various etiquette and heraldry used by the Holy Church, and so on, they had to start all over again. From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to build this Holy Church.

“It’s fine to have the Holy Spirit Flower as the pattern of the Holy Church’s Lord, but isn’t the pattern a little too few? As for the rest…”

“The etiquette should be based on the ritual of the cross…”

“The Holy Church’s 24 divisions? That’s too many. Let’s see if we can simplify it a little. In terms of personnel, we’ll add the Holy Maiden of Light and the red-robed Archbishop to the two positions. The powers of the two positions are…”

There was no other way. These were all necessary parts of creating an organization. His subordinates could help him design and create, but the real decision was still up to him.

Halfway through the conversation, Merrius suddenly stammered, “Also…”

Heath said, “Speak.”

Merrius said with a guilty conscience, “Also, you said that you wanted us to organize a portion of the content that the gods taught the world. This…”

Heath said, “Why? Are you done organizing it? Then let me take a look.”

Merrius said in a troubled manner, “This…”

Heath raised his eyebrows. “What?”

Merrius mustered up his courage and said, “What exactly did the God of Light say… You haven’t told us yet…”

Heath was stunned for a moment.

The God of Light’s trick was enough to fool ordinary people, but for a knowledgeable scholar like Merrius, Heath did not believe that he would believe his nonsense.

He looked at Merrius and thought for a moment. “Sir Merrius, since you did not leave like those nobles, then I think you should approve of what we are doing now. In that case, I think we should be more direct.”

“There are many things that I can not do by myself. Otherwise, I would not have specially asked you to help me, right?”

The thing that he had Merrius draft was the church’s doctrine. After this was sorted out, it would be used to educate the people. It was the core ideology of the church and the soul of the church.

It involved food, clothing, behavior, and even sleeping and dreaming.

He had to think through each and every one of them. He had to think about what kind of clothes he wanted the people to wear, how he wanted the people to speak, and even whether the people should sleep flat or on their side.

If he relied on Heath to complete such a huge content on his own, he would be exhausted to death. He did not have the interest to think so much. It was better to hand it over to the scholars who truly wanted to change the world.

Merrius was silent for a moment.

Having interacted with Wizards, he naturally did not believe in the God of Light. He was only willing to join Heath because he was tired of the chaos. He saw that Heath wanted to restore order and had the ability to do so.

However, he did not expect that Heath’s ambition would be so great. Not only did he want to restore order, he even wanted to create another set of order.

And now, he wanted to hand over the framework of order to him and let him complete it…

Merrius wiped the sweat that had unknowingly oozed out of his forehead. His mood was unprecedentedly fluctuating. An indescribable excitement filled his entire body.

He held a notebook in one hand and a quill in the other. After a moment of contemplation, he asked Heath, “My Lord, do you think… did God say that ‘humans and livestock need to live separately’?”

Heath said, “Yes, that can be done.”

Merrius continued, “Did God also say that ‘humans cannot have coitus with goats’?”

“Yes, that must be added. Otherwise, who will bear the children if they go and have sex with goats?”

“Didn’t God say…”

In the afternoon, both sides talked about what God wanted people to do with their lives. They had a rough idea of the basic framework, which involved all aspects of people’s lives.

After the basic framework was drawn up, Heath left the rest to Merrius to deal with.

He encouraged, “What did God say? Did God say it? That’s not important. What’s important is that we need to tell these people outside, tell them what to do and how to live. What do you think?”

Merrius wanted to say, ‘I think you’re a big liar.’

The matter came to an end.

Before he left, Merrius asked, “My Lord, do you think… This doctrine should have a name?”

Heath thought for a moment and said, “Let’s call it ‘God said,’ it’s concise and clear.”

God said, “Let there be light!”

Look, how domineering.

So, the first book in the Wizard World that taught people how to live, told people where to come from, and where to go was published in the temple of Caleru, and later in St. Paul’s Cathedral…

…

The creation of the entire Holy Church was a huge task that heath alone could not accomplish. He just needed to keep watch at the critical moment, and the rest was left to his subordinates to handle.

Thus, on the second day after connecting with Merrius, he returned to the field of magic.

And this time, the project that he pushed onto the experimental platform for research was —

The Grand Knight!
