Chapter 17 The Empire's State Religion
Bayev reminded him, "Have you forgotten that you need a physical examination? Come with me to the church later."
After Bayev's reminder, Ron finally remembered this matter.
He had promised to go to Bishop Doni to check his physical problems.
Looking at Bayev, who was respectful but firm, Ron understood.
This senior steward still didn't completely believe in himself.
But it was understandable, after all, he was attacked by the Chaos heretics and lost his memory.
His behavior became strange, and anyone would be suspicious.
So Bayev insisted that he go to the state church for a checkup.
If he really had any problems, the pastors of the state church would naturally have the means to distinguish them.
In fact, Bayev was also worried and tangled in his heart. If he really found out that there was a problem, what should he do?
Lord Ron is the only bloodline of the Grant family. If he has problems, the family will no longer exist.
At that time, what should they do?
Bayev has been in torment for the past two days, and finally he chose to ask Lord Ron to go for a test.
No matter what the test results are, even if Lord Ron believes in the devil, he will offer his loyalty!
"Lord?"
Bayev waited nervously for Ron's response, fearing that he would be rejected.
"Let's go..."
Ron nodded and agreed to Bayev's request.
This is a good thing. He can take this opportunity to get rid of everyone's doubts about him and thoroughly establish his identity.
Bayev is his senior steward, the most loyal confidant, and holds many powers and secrets.
If he does not eliminate his doubts about himself, there will be a lot of trouble when doing things later.
As for whether there will be any problems in the inspection, Ron is not afraid at all.
Because his soul has been completely integrated with Ron Grant, no matter who comes to check, they will be sure that they are the same person.
Just take a walk and change your mind.
Maybe you can find inspiration and solve the current problem.
Bayev got the response from the governor and was relieved: "Please follow me, His Excellency Bishop Doni is waiting for you"
Ron followed Bayev out and took the opportunity to ask him some questions.
About the current power structure and control strength of the Royal Court.
In fact, Ron's power is very stable now, at least in the territory.
After the rebellion ended, Bayev was authorized to launch a major purge.
He took the opportunity to eliminate all kinds of personnel stationed on this planet by the opposition and the empire.
He attributed those people to the rebellion of heretics, claiming that they unfortunately died in the struggle against heretics.
Ron looked at the kind-looking steward in front of him and called him a good guy in his heart.
This guy always says "God Emperor, God Emperor", how can he be so disloyal?
But it is true that Bayev, as the most loyal servant of the Grant family, his mission is to serve and protect the only bloodline of the Grant family.
Any factors that are harmful to Ron must be eliminated!
If it weren't for Bayev, Ron might not have lived to this day.
In this regard, he could only express his appreciation: "Well done."
"I hope you can understand." Bayev said respectfully: "Everything is for the continuation of Grant's bloodline."
In general, Bayev is a very qualified senior steward, even exceptionally excellent.
If it weren't for him, the Royal Court District might have fallen long ago.
Including the problem of food shortage that Ron is worried about now, Bayev has also made a plan early.
According to his plan, the Royal Court District will implement stricter control.
For the sake of the overall situation, some people will be sacrificed, useless labor will be eliminated, and resources such as protein and water from them will be recycled to maintain the operation of the army.
In this way, the Royal Court District can be maintained for decades more.
By that time, the subspace storm should have subsided, and the Royal Court District will resume communication with the outside world to seek solutions to the predicament.
If the rescue of the empire can be waited for, it will be even better.
But Ron rejected Bayev's plan.
Because once the plan is implemented, it will impose greater suffering on the people of the territory, and countless people will die.
In this case, how are they different from the Homan family and those barbaric warbands?
This is something he cannot accept.
Moreover, he also knows that the Great Rift will last longer.
At the easternmost part of the galaxy, Macragge, the home planet of the Ultramarines, should be in blood and war.
The Ultramarines will resist the attack of the Chaos forces and resurrect their Primarch, Roboute Guilliman, the Lord of Ultramar and the Thirteenth Son of the Emperor, in the Sanctuary.
And after Roboute Guilliman wakes up, he will start an unyielding expedition as the Regent of the Empire to liberate many worlds in the dark side of the Empire.
But this will take a long time, and the planet Ers should not be able to wait until then.
Implementing Bayev's plan is nothing more than extending some time, and the result is still the same.
Ron has a better way, but he has encountered obstacles.
Just as Ron was thinking about how to arouse the hope of the people in distress, Bayev's voice interrupted him.
"My lord, we are here..."
The hovercraft stopped at the bottom of the stairs of the State Church in the Royal Court.
The church is made of black stone and heavy metal, and its exterior is covered with statues depicting scenes from imperial history and images of saints.
On top is a huge stained glass dome that gleams brightly in the strong sunlight.
Ron got off the car and looked at the magnificent and sacred church with some emotion.
It is worthy of being the state religion of the empire. As soon as he got off the car, he felt the solemn and mysterious atmosphere.
It is just a little deserted, and there are almost no people.
He couldn't help but look at Bayev. Wouldn't this guy clean up this place?
As the only sect designated by the empire, the state religion of the empire is one of the most important organizations in the human empire.
The state religion of the empire, or the church, is responsible for spreading and maintaining the belief system that the great emperor is the only true god.
The organization of the church is extremely large, stationed in millions of planetary worlds in the empire, guiding countless imperial people as believers.
Its headquarters is located in Antarctica, Holy Terra, and the religious city almost covers the entire Antarctica.
The church is based on worshiping the emperor, preaching its doctrines, and has powerful religious armed forces.
Those fanatical priests hold scriptures in their left hands and guns in their right hands, and carry chainsaw swords on their bodies.
Anyone who blasphemes the emperor will be subject to the most severe trial!
With the armed forces of the church, it should be difficult for the Royal Court to purge them, right?
Moreover, daring to purge the most loyal servant of His Majesty the Emperor, what a blasphemy!
There are really gods in this world, and the Emperor is like a god.
Although the probability is extremely small, if the Emperor gets angry and sends down divine punishment, who can withstand it?
Ron looked at Bayev with confusion in his eyes.
What is going on?
