Chapter 1496: Chapter 487: Liberation Theology_3

"My ass? Priest certification? And the California Archdiocese seal... how did you get this stuff?"

New Dynasty Elegance was nonchalant

"A priest middleman from the Haywood district gave it to me, didn’t take much effort because in his eyes, I’m a devout and knowledgeable Christian, naturally born to be a priest."

"Bullshit! What kind of hidden profession is this?"

Cybercles cursed

"We’re still leveling up, and you’re already pursuing certifications and getting into the system, you dog!"

Players don’t bother to apply for electrician or doctor certifications; when their skills are good enough, they just go for the job straight away. All necessary proof, credentials, and inspections are handled by Lin Miao, who uses money to pull strings.

"Looks like the end of the universe is certification cat."

Even Jackal was speechless.

"I can only get a pet certificate, and the Animal Protection Organization won’t even recognize me as a cat."

"...."

Li De didn’t know whether to laugh or cry; all the effort he put in couldn’t match the effectiveness of a priest certification.

Luckily, they still made it safely into the city center.

But the center of Atlanta had a peculiar sense of tranquility. According to the data records, this was a city center with a population of millions, yet the streets were sparsely populated, and not only were there no people, but stores were absent too, just walls and graffiti-covered facades.

"Cybercles and Jackal, you two go and set up the surveillance network, try to tap into the city center’s local network, see if you can find any traces of the black market network. I’ll go to the local bar to gather relevant information. As for you..."

Li De originally wanted New Dynasty Elegance to follow him, since religious experts are generally bookish and not suited for navigating such diverse environments; hiding out in the car seemed best.

But well... this person is a Horizon Mercenary.

"You can contact me from the car or explore nearby, but stay safe."

New Dynasty Elegance nodded without saying anything, having his own plans.

The four soon scattered, and New Dynasty Elegance naturally couldn’t just stay in the car, starting to wander the streets.

After all, how does one preach from the car?

Friend, have you heard of Amway?

Atlanta almost lacked street shops, those that open on the ground level facing the street; all commercial activities occur inside buildings, like business towers.

The streets seem deserted because everyone is inside buildings, primarily for safety reasons.

Nevertheless, when New Dynasty Elegance arrived inside a commercial building on the city outskirts, a place mainly home to small businesses, there were still a considerable number of missionaries promoting their doctrines, trying to recruit believers. 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

Typically, only the Mormon Church does this in reality, even knocking on doors to preach. But in Atlanta, even cultists could openly advocate their strange religious concepts in public places.

But this was good; at least New Dynasty Elegance felt he could seamlessly blend into their ranks.

However, New Dynasty Elegance didn’t mimic those missionaries by grabbing people and directly attempting to convert them, as that would be too low-class and not in line with his priestly style, so he found a relatively vacant spot, opened a Bible the size of a notebook, and loudly recited

"Super Earth, our home."

Luckily, there were no other players around; otherwise, their laughter alone would ruin the atmosphere entirely.

The man was recruiting.

Local people had no objections, as there were believers everywhere; preaching was seen everywhere, so excessively conspicuous behaviors weren’t surprising, most people just ignored him.

Until he started discussing his own written scriptures.

"In today’s service, we gather in the temple of Super Earth together to listen to the words of Wang Hong, feel Wang Hong’s love and grace."

His enunciation was clear and forceful, demeanor solemn and pious, looking quintessentially priest-like, standing out among the missionaries.

"God loves the world, but every person born into the world has original sin; only by redeeming our sins and cleansing them shall the Lord’s voice descend upon us again."

"So, how do we redeem our sins?"

"God loves the world, thus he won’t make us suffer physically."

"The answer is work, because in God’s world everyone has their own position; only through work can we cleanse ourselves of sin and walk righteously with God."

Work is suffering, suffering is redemption, so going to work is redeeming my sins, very sensible, it fits the logic, right?

"Each of us should have a job, one that can feed our families, our children, allow a decent living because God loves us all; why would he only love those wealthy sinners?"

"Remember, Jesus once said it’s harder for capitalists to enter Heaven than a camel through the eye of a needle; most of them will go to Hell."

"Nonsense."

A passing middle-aged Caucasian thought this guy was simply dumb; how could everyone have a job and a decent living?

"If there were high-paying jobs, why would I come here to buy these cheap foods? It’s easy to talk standing up."

"Of course there are."

New Dynasty Elegance loudly replied

"Wang Hong has already foretold, everyone should have a job, and can have a job."

"It’s just that God’s gifts are monopolized by wicked capitalists, who, like demons, steal God’s grace."

"The national employment act is God’s revelation, but the hidden evil demons are blocking the act’s arrival; they just want to see the poor suffer in Hell!"

"Or do you think kind Jesus would ignore the suffering lambs?"

"How dare you slander Jesus?!"
