"Ah..." The little girl's expression froze for a moment.
The man in front of me seemed to be proselytizing to me...
Is it possible to reverse the Heavenly Stems like this?
"Sir, our Lord is the only God, and we must not worship any other god..." the little girl whispered to Zhou Yun.
Zhou Yun raised an eyebrow.
"Coincidentally, our human emperor said: He is not a god."
"Huh?" The little girl seemed unable to keep up with Zhou Yun's train of thought, and her expression became increasingly blank.
"Moreover, the Emperor told us: 'You should wholeheartedly believe the following truths: There are no ghosts or gods, no supernatural phenomena, no magic or witchcraft among the stars; everything can be interpreted through science; humanity can overcome everything by the light of reason; nothing should be worshipped; the rational galaxy needs to completely eradicate the backward concept of religion.'"
Zhou Yun spoke earnestly and forcefully to the young girl in front of him who was trying to preach to him.
The little girl covered her forehead, her eyes filled with confusion, bewilderment, and incomprehension. Her mind was racing, trying to understand the meaning of Zhou Yun's words.
"Wait, sir!"
The little girl seemed to have finally figured out Zhou Yun's logic:
"Your god says he is not a god, and that there is no god in this world, nothing beyond human understanding, nothing that should be worshipped, and your religion even seeks to eliminate religion?"
"Yes." Zhou Yun nodded slowly.
"Um...?" The little girl was bewildered by the contradictory doctrines. After a long while, she finally managed to utter, "How did you come to accept such complicated doctrines...?"
"Our god says he's not a god anymore, so what can we do? Of course we just go along with him," Zhou Yun said, shrugging his shoulders.
What he just said is what the emperor himself proclaimed when he traveled among the people during the Great Expedition.
Yes, yes, although the Emperor had a halo behind his head, emitted golden light, could mold stars into the size of houses, lived for tens of thousands of years, and had twenty-one sons who were like demigods, one of whom was even like an angel, he was not a god.
Although the warp is the dimension of emotion and will, filled with all sorts of demons, monsters, and peddlers, and although there are beings like celestial gods—essentially gods of matter—in the material universe, there are no gods in this world.
To put it somewhat jokingly, the so-called imperial truths proclaimed by the emperor were...
The state church organized a religious conference.
The Pope said, "In faith in the Emperor, God stands on the right; in faith in chaos, God stands on the left."
But there was one person who was neither standing on the right nor on the left.
The Pope was puzzled.
The man said, "I don't believe the Emperor is a god, and the Chaos Gods don't exist at all."
The Pope was greatly alarmed and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, when did you descend from the Golden Throne?"
Although in his heart he had already thoroughly ridiculed the emperor's set of imperial truths,
But Zhou Yun still maintained a serious demeanor on the surface and said:
"So what? You know, back when humans hadn't left Terra, there was a religion that tried to convince people that every person had a Holy Spirit within them who could impregnate a virgin, and that this Holy Spirit, his son, and his son's father were one person."
The little girl's expression suddenly turned a bit strange.
Zhou Yun had assumed that after his rambling, the girl would lose interest and stop stopping him.
Unexpectedly, the girl seemed to be provoked and became even more determined to get closer to Zhou Yun.
"Sir! I increasingly believe that you need to understand our one and only Lord!"
Zhou Yun's headache was getting worse.
"Is your one and only God a goddess of love, beauty, and art, who loves purple, is symbolized by the snake, and is androgynous?"
The little girl shook her head.
"Is that the god of life, the god of immortality, the god of abundance, who loves green, is symbolized by flies, and is fat and swollen?"
The little girl still shook her head.
"Is that the god of courage, the god of war, the god of military prowess, who loves red, is symbolized by a hunting dog, and sits on a brass throne?"
"You mean the Lord of War?" The little girl scratched her head.
"Is that the god of wisdom, the god of change, the god of hope, who loves blue, whose symbol is the eagle, and whose image is constantly changing?"
"No, not exactly," the little girl denied.
None of the four?
Zhou Yun's expression turned a little serious.
"Is your master a dragon?" he asked.
He thought of a dragon that lived underground on Mars...
"The dragon is the enemy of my lord," the little girl said devoutly, bowing her head.
None of the five were it...
Zhou Yun couldn't find any trace of lying on the little girl's face. Could she be a follower of some wild demon?
Or some obscure secondary existence in the warp?
Or perhaps...
Just then, the little girl slowly reached her hand into her neck and pulled the pendant hanging around her neck out of her collar...
It was a silver cross.
"...So he's a veteran."
No wonder this girl became so fixated on the concept of the Trinity after she had complained about it.
"You are a Catholic," Zhou Yun said.
The little girl gave a gentle smile.
"You know us very well; very few people in this era understand the sacredness of the Trinity..."
In this messed-up galaxy, this veteran might actually be a relatively safe faith.
According to Zhou Yun's memories from his previous life,
In this world, the Catholic faith is almost always directed towards some yellow-skinned person.
Orl Persson, the Emperor's old comrade-in-arms and the immortal who would later sacrifice himself before the Emperor, was a Catholic.
But Zhou Yun didn't really intend to find himself a faith.
"I'm so sorry, I really don't have time to listen to your preaching. My niece said that if I get back late, she won't forgive me." Zhou Yun gestured for the little girl to look at the parchment, bread, fish sauce, and fruits and vegetables in his hand.
The little girl hesitated for a moment.
"If you have time, you can go to the temple district to find our church... um, the smallest building in the entire temple district is our church."
"You absolutely must come! We'll give you free fish sauce."
Giving away fish sauce for free... indeed, giving away eggs for free remains one of the most effective methods of proselytizing.
Zhou Yun couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
However, in today's universe, let alone eggs, it's questionable whether chickens even exist anymore... Dinosaurs, after countless ages, were ultimately eliminated by evolution, while crocodiles remain alive and well.
In Zhou Yun's memory, there were also quite a few crocodiles in Macurag.
Aside from the terrifying upright ape, Uncle Crocodile is the most resilient creature in the entire universe.
Zhou Yun returned to his rented apartment. After placing bread, fruits and vegetables, and fish sauce in a corner of the room, he sat down behind the wooden table and spread out the parchment.
He is now about to perform a traditional fortune-telling technique.
Zhou Yun picked up a pen and began to draw patterns on the parchment.
