Chapter 2173 – 2173. Eternal Eden

Seongjingyo had a hierarchy.

General believers and priests.

To become a priest, one must dedicate everything to Seongjingyo and Seong Yujin. Those who sacrifice not only their wealth but even their families. They basically harbored fanaticism.

Originally, priests were intended to be part of the Seong Yujin Guard, but they were eliminated due to lack of physical talent. Seong Yu-jin’s SS is the elite of the royal family. Even if you armed yourself with faith, you could not join the SS if you did not have talent.

However, it would be too wasteful to abandon them just because they cannot become part of the SS. Therefore, they became priests. My main job is to become a missionary and inform people about Seongjin Church.

There was no overt missionary activity. Just because you’re a fanatic doesn’t mean you’re stupid. Even if you force them to believe in Seongjingyo, they will only be treated as a cult.

Missionary priests first visited vulnerable groups. Even when the world went to shit, the poor still existed. He tempted them by providing them with food and other daily necessities.

At first, he pretended to believe in Seongjingyo in order to obtain daily necessities. A religion that treats humans as gods? Anyone can see that it’s a fake. However, continuous brainwashing and favor from Seongjingyo gradually made him fall into Seongjingyo.

Help those in need and attract those who are marginalized. She did not hesitate to enter the world of beauty. The truly admirable beauty was dedicated to Seong Yu-jin… The average beauty focused on missionary work. Even an ordinary woman could cover up her beauty with makeup.

Armed with full professional makeup, she seduces men. I can’t help but be attracted to men who have girlfriends and men who I know are fake. Men were sad creatures.

In this way, Seongjingyo increased the number of believers and expanded its area of ​​activity through continuous missionary activities. Even though it was only in Korea. This couldn’t be helped. Nowadays, going abroad to Korea is blocked. Only cargo ships moved, and aircraft could only be used with state permission. Overseas Travel? Is this possible in an age where zombies are rampant? There was no way other countries would accept foreigners.

Don’t the police crack down on pseudo religions?

Religion does not necessarily mean it is a cult. There is freedom of religion in Korea, and the religion of faith does not necessarily have to be Christianity, Buddhism, or Catholicism. Because Seongjingyo did not openly commit illegal activities, it was not stigmatized as a pseudo religion.

And as the world became a mess, pseudo-religions arose all over the place. Seongjingyo was a moderate religion among small and medium-sized religions.

Anything that believers give to religion is done voluntarily. There was no particular threat. Although if you don’t donate, you will be ignored by other believers. Anyway, Seongjingyo was slowly increasing its popularity like a turtle.

Then something happened.

Seong Yu-jin revealed some of her recovery abilities to the public. The public went crazy, calling out her name, Seong Yu-jin. Seongjingyo was calm. Their god simply showed his power to the foolish. There was no reason to make a fuss.

However, teaching activities have become incredibly easier. No, can this be called a missionary activity?

She came to me because she wanted to become a believer even though she had not done any missionary work.

There were 50 believers three days ago, 80 two days ago, 110 yesterday, and 150 today.

They had something in common. You or a family member was sick or disabled. He knocked on the door of Seongjingyo with the expectation that if he joined Seongjin, which worshiped Seong Yu-jin as a god, he would be able to meet Seong Yu-jin and receive treatment.

Seongjingyo priests said of course it was possible.

“In order to meet Him in person and receive His grace, we must be active as believers.”

The priest spoke in front of 150 believers. Behind him, a portrait of Seong Yu-jin hung on the wall. The believers were kneeling in front of the portrait. Clasp both hands reverently and listen to the priest.

“Mr. Min Hap-seung. Please come forward.”

“Yes. “Priest Kim.”

Min Hap-seung, a middle-aged man, ascended to the top of the podium. The priest pointed at him and continued.

“Mr. Min Hap-seung donated 80% of his entire wealth and continued his missionary work to inform 60 people who the true savior was. He also encouraged his daughters to serve by sending them to Seoul Seongak Elementary School. The Holy Spirit was so impressed by Min Hap-seung’s sincerity that he personally bestowed a benevolent blessing on him. Isn’t that right?”

“You’re right. He met him in person and received his blessings. Some of you probably know me. I was paralyzed from the waist down due to a car accident. I was unable to even go to the nearest convenience store without a wheelchair and the help of another person. But now I’m standing with both feet on the ground. This was possible because of the grace bestowed by the Holy Spirit! “You are my savior and the savior of this world!”

The believers watched Min Hap Seung. There is heat in their eyes.

Seong Yu-jin’s service time is short. She does it less than an hour a day, and fewer than five patients benefit from it. It was not possible to receive treatment from Seong Yu-jin just by going to Seoul.

People found another way, and that was Seongjingyo. If you donate money to Seongjin Church and engage in missionary work, you can receive treatment from Seongyujin. At least it’s more realistic than just going up to Seoul.

The priest sent Min Hap-seung away and called the child to the altar. The child, no older than 10 years old, stood nervously. The priest smiled kindly and touched his child’s shoulder. Her child’s mother was sitting on her knees next to him, praying to Seong Yu-jin.

“This child was a zombie until a month ago. “This child’s mother stole her satanic skills and snitched on her satanic minions to save her child.”

In Sungjingyo, Satan refers to Kim Soo-gyeol, the chairman of Ilwoo Group, who is Sung Yu-jin’s enemy. More broadly, it refers to the Ilwoo Group itself.

The child’s mother was a researcher at Ilwoo Group. She stole the technology from the Ilwoo Group and gave it to Seong Yu-jin, and in return, she saved the zombie child from being a normal person. Starting next week, she will go to Seongak Elementary School with her child and work as her researcher.

“That sincerity moved the saint. Everyone. Bring information from Satan and demons. You can punish Satan directly. Killing the devil is not a sin. Although ignorant police officers will arrest you… Your family will be looked after by our church and our saint. Satan deserves to die.”

The eyes of the believers shine. This was especially true for young believers. They had children. A child who became a zombie. A child who cannot be killed, so they are locked away. That child can see the light again. By killing one of the Ilwoo Group office workers.

In Korea, murder is punishable by more than 7 years in prison. Seongjingyo will provide you with a competent lawyer, so all you have to do is spend about 10 years in prison.

Wouldn’t it be okay to kill a demon for a child?

Ilwoo Group employees died all over the country. Ilwoo Group’s partners were no exception.

Believers deliberately approached the victim and started a fight, or faked an accident and killed him. He then went to the police station and surrendered himself, saying it was an accidental crime. Of course, the saint of Seongjingyo was not brought up either. He said he just killed him accidentally.

The police, prosecutors, and judges looked suspicious, but they shrugged it off. Some of them were members of Seongjingyo.

Stories related to Seongjingyo slowly leaked out on the Internet, but that was it. Because it was currently heading toward North Korea and the United States of South Korea.

And Seong Yu-jin became a member of the National Assembly under a special law.

• • •

After wearing the National Assembly badge, I thought of my next goal.

President.

But this is not easy.

Unlike members of the National Assembly who have little real power in Korea, the president has more power than ever before. Since it was close to a wartime system, it had to be that way. Threats from North Korea and big and small problems within South Korea.

‘If I kill the president, wouldn’t I be able to become president within a year? … Hmm. Isn’t that a bit difficult?’

A support base was needed. Fortunately, Seongjin Bridge is expanding at a rapid pace. As a bonus, they are also killing the Ilwoo group scum. Recently, technicians from Ilwoo Group flocked to Seongak Elementary School. Most people accepted it because they still needed technicians. Anyone suspected of being a spy was mercilessly killed and placed in a decomposer to be used as a resource.

‘I heard there’s a problem with Seongjin Bridge too.’

Those who falsely enter the church.

People who only receive benefits after joining the church and then betray them.

‘Where are you going to run away? Absolutely not. I will have to select a separate Heresy Questioner and punish him.’

Kugugung.

The ground shakes. An earthquake suddenly occurred. An earthquake of magnitude 1 to 2. It wasn’t dangerous. The degree to which an object placed on the table shakes and falls.

‘Earthquakes are frequent these days. They say most of them occurred in Japan.’

I heard that an earthquake of magnitude 5 or higher will occur in Japan. The earthquake felt in Korea is a type of aftershock.

‘As time passes, the world will become more messed up. We need to gather as much technology and resources as possible now.’

The D virus is not the only problem in this world. The 128 meteorites that fell on this world had large and small impacts on the Earth. The D virus is just one of those effects. Natural disasters will continue to occur in the future. Even in the original game, natural disasters played a role in adding variables to the game. So to speak, an element of luck.

‘First, Japan seems to be in trouble as earthquakes continue to occur. Mt. Fuji could explode… A tsunami could come and sweep it away.’

In the worst case, it was a tectonic shift. The Japanese archipelago could move and be right next to Korea. Will Korea and Japan get along well then? Absolutely not. Japan, which was already quietly preparing for an invasion, will declare war.

‘No. You don’t want to declare war? Like at Pearl Harbor.’

And variants and variants are evolving. Although the sea route and sky route are open right now… Well, as time passes. Giant predators will appear in the sea and attack ships, and the sky will become the domain of a new ruler.

‘Korea will be isolated. This is Korea, where sea routes are blocked. It’s scary to even imagine.’

South Korea was a country with a trade dependence of close to 80%. If trade is blocked, it’s over. Even now, the economy was sinking into abyss.

The earthquake stopped. I got up from my seat. There was a promise.
