But the issue of food is very difficult to resolve, because there is truly nothing on the ground of the Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes, and when they were swept into it, they couldn't bring plant seeds. However, under the divine being's reminder, they realized that while there are no resources on the ground, there are still some beneath it.
What is there?
Lala Fei.
When the earth mages dug a pit five meters deep, they soon uncovered the cute ground rat, Lala Fei. Not only is its meat fresh and tasty, it also provides moisture, and its fur can be used to make clothes—truly an excellent source of nutrition. Thus, the grand pit-digging operation began, and now the blue sky area is almost entirely dotted with holes.
Although the two most important issues were resolved, new problems quickly arose: how to handle waste? Should everyone work? How to supervise? What if someone is lazy? How should anyone hoarding Lala Fei be handled? How to solve the issue of bathing? How to arrange shifts...
A plethora of bewildering problems lay before Tamasi, and although he gathered several calm and clever subordinates to form a temporary committee to tackle them together, none had experience—who would have experience in arranging for three thousand believers of different faiths to survive in the wilderness?
Thus, they learned as they went along, achieving only initial success now, not yet fully on track. After all, Lala Fei would still run out. They must continue to develop the Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes to let plants, animals, fields, and rivers reappear here if they hope to survive.
As for how to develop it, Tamasi already has ideas. In comparison, the question posed by the young man earlier prompted more profound reflection from him as a leader.
What system exactly should he use to manage these three thousand people?
Frankly speaking, Tamasi never expected there to be so many problems in managing people. For instance, the conflict between the middle-aged man and the young man earlier would not occur in Senluo, because believers of the same sect wouldn't harbor such 'superficial' malice; even if they did, they would be polite to each other.
As long as the faith is the same, management isn't difficult. But as a trade-off, the believers would direct their malice a thousand-fold onto heretics—in Senluo, there is only one conflict, which is the battle for faith; and only one solution, which is death.
Use the faith of Ya Sha Jin to govern them?
If Tamasi wanted, he could indeed convert all these people. In fact, many of Senluo's believers do not have firm beliefs; they merely need something to believe in to live. As for in what they believe, they don't care, otherwise, the Four Pillars God Sect wouldn't have grown so swiftly.
Moreover, doing so would mean re-establishing the Ya Sha Jin sect and making the Ya Sha Jin faith great again. These three thousand people would also hold justice in their hearts, naturally not loathing or conflicting with one another, and collaboratively build a beautiful Heavenly Kingdom of Thousand Wishes.
For Tamasi, who pursues the glory of Ya Sha Jin, this option seems politically correct and a dream come true.
But he felt only a fleeting heartbeat and quickly dismissed this idea.
Because Tamasi has already seen the limitations of faith and he is aware faith doesn't have universality. For someone like him, faith naturally serves as a vessel, transforming him; for ordinary people, faith might not be of much help, merely enhancing their lives; but for others, faith is just poison.
For example, Tanomu, Ash, Igula, and Harvey.
Faith cannot restrain Tanomu's actions; once interests are involved, Tanomu's true nature will immediately be exposed. Ash, Igula, and Harvey already have something more important than faith in their hearts, or rather, they all have their own 'faiths,' which already strengthen their inner selves, leaving no need for external faith reinforcement.
Moreover, without even the Great Skills now, how much power does faith still hold?
More importantly, Tamasi is unwilling to strip others of their faith.
Tamasi has an inexplicable pride: if others are willing to follow Ya Sha Jin, he welcomes them wholeheartedly. But to preach, or even transform someone else's belief, he cannot bring himself to do.
With his strength, he could have long since re-established a sect in the wasteland. Yet, he has not done so, has not sold faith to any child; even after meeting Ash and the others, he hasn't introduced the teachings of Ya Sha Jin in detail to them.
His effort in preaching is not even comparable to Harvey's 'allow me to take a moment to introduce the great necromancy ruler Hagen Dazs.'
In Igula's words, "You are a saint, not a shepherd. A shepherd can guide people, making everyone work together to build a Sky Tower to reach the Heavenly Kingdom. A saint doesn't do such things; a saint spreads wax wings to fly to the sky, until the wax wings melt, and he falls down, then he can tell everyone: I have seen it, the Heavenly Kingdom is real."
After experiencing the downfall of a faith-driven nation, even with his strong belief, Tamasi cannot help but doubt whether there are major flaws in the faith system, leading him to refrain from establishing his own sect in the short term.
Then, use Blood Moon System? Or Gospel System?
The core of the Blood Moon System is strict management during normal times, but it offers some extremely low-floor killing activities to let ordinary people release their desires. The two support each other—because of the killing activities, they can manage strictly without rebellion during normal times; because of the strict management, killing activities are necessary to maintain mental and physical health.
The Gospel System is very simple, it manages everyone's every move comprehensively, ensuring through complex calculations that everyone works with minimal friction.
