Chapter 820: Chapter 392: Serving as Speaker
The Illuminati in this world is somewhat different from the one Brian knew in his past life.
In this world, the Illuminati is purely a platform for exchanging interests, not confined by ethnicity or nation, only looking at whether you have resources.
Simply put, it’s an exchange platform for interests.
This organization was established during the Age of Discovery.
Two hundred years have passed, some have fallen, some have joined.
There are many political figures and wealthy merchants across the globe who are members of this organization.
The Illuminati in Brian’s world can be considered a communication platform. Aside from needing to adhere to certain rules during transactions, it imposes no other constraints on its members.
This might be the reason for its successful transnational spread.
When Brian was on the rise, the Illuminati had sent him an invitation to join, indicating they could help him handle the pressure from Washington.
But at the time, Brian ignored them.
This invitation could be considered their second attempt.
Holding the envelope in his hands,
Brian tore open a corner and took out the paper inside.
The content was brief:
[Dear Mr. Brian, the great master of California.
The Illuminati sincerely invites you to join and become the new chairman of the Illuminati.
all members will promote the development of the Rebirth Sect in various countries.]
Upon seeing the content, Brian became interested.
He wasn’t interested in the so-called position of chairman.
After all, in a trading platform, the chairman’s power isn’t much. It’s mainly high prestige and social status to play a coordinating and deterrent role.
But promoting the spread of the Rebirth Sect…
This point was very intriguing.
Since conquering Japan, Brian’s influence had grown significantly.
One man suppressing a nation.
Yet the United States had no objections.
This already explained the matter sufficiently.
From that moment on, the Rebirth Sect entered high-speed development.
Centered around the entire California, a large number of veteran believers, turned into missionaries, began spreading at a virus-like speed across the entire Japan and the United States.
The Rebirth Sect doesn’t care about donations, influence, or whether you have multiple beliefs; it only cares about the believers’ right to farewell before death.
The doctrine of the Rebirth Sect is simple and straightforward, with no negative guidance, only encouraging people to be good, to treat life with kindness, to attain bliss after death, and to treat everyone equally.
This also meant apart from the competition in belief, it didn’t touch the interests of local powers.
as long as they verbally claimed belief in the Rebirth Sect and took some time to pray at a point of the Rebirth Sect, they could receive believer certification and gain discounts in many large supermarkets and other benefits.
The other sects had ideas,
but they lacked Brian’s hard power.
Brian controlled one continent, and it was an economically developed California. He had people and guns, so they could only resign themselves with a pinch.
Fortunately, the Rebirth Sect didn’t care about multiple beliefs.
This was the sole psychological comfort for the bishops of those sect areas.
Therefore, the above problems were not the challenges in spreading the Rebirth Sect.
In terms of preaching, the most people felt was whether Brian’s influence was too large, but without a leader, it ended up like a frog in boiling water, helplessly watching the Rebirth Sect become the largest sect in the United States.
The biggest challenge in the development of the Rebirth Sect was actually stepping out.
The sect’s influence was immensely large.
In some countries, the actual rulers were even sect leaders.
The United States, as an immigrant country, had multispectral beliefs, with thousands of cults, not to mention a Rebirth Sect, so its stance was relatively lenient.
Simply put, disobedience leads to annihilation.
Thus, the spread of the Rebirth Sect in these two countries was extremely rapid.
Other regions weren’t the same.
Europe, the East, Middle D, and even Africa… Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
Brian arranged for missionaries to develop through diplomacy and interest exchange.
But it wasn’t going smoothly.
Officially, they granted you the right to preach, but if those in power didn’t want the populace to pay attention, it was just a matter of a few words.
Preaching was allowed,
but the effectiveness was poor.
apart from some chaotic small countries where no one paid attention, in other populous countries, the gains were minimal.
In those places, the influence of the Rebirth Sect’s five-year spread, globally combined, might not even equal the influence of one area in Japan.
Now this invitation from the Illuminati provided Brian with an opportunity.
With help from those Illuminati members who truly had influence in various countries, it was akin to opening an internal gap for Brian.
Once a gap was made, things would become easier.
Seeing Brian staring blankly at the invitation, Susan curiously asked: “Brian, what does it say?”
She saw the interest in Brian’s face.
Brian handed the invitation to Susan.
After Susan finished reading, her face lit up with understanding: “It seems this Illuminati spent a lot of time studying you, knowing that most of your energy is focused on the Rebirth Sect.”
The Blissful Space of Brian could accommodate the Consciousness Crystals of believers.
She was aware of that.
No wonder Brian was moved.
“Yes, originally I was thinking that when I accumulated enough power to sweep across the globe in one go, I would deal with this matter. It actually wouldn’t take too long, but the Illuminati’s decision could bring that time forward, so I indeed became a bit interested.”
