Chapter 634: Radiant Church: Garrett Committed Blasphemy Again!
Garrett’s two papers, "Summary of 17 Successful Cesarean Sections" and "The Role of Cesarean Sections in Saving Maternal Lives," were published successively in the latest issues of Magic and Arcane.
No need to wait for a slot, no waiting period, published imdiately, highly recomnded.
The editor of Magic enthusiastically comnted:
"This is a groundbreaking treatnt thod... From now on, won will no longer suffer from childbirth... When the fetus is about to be born, she only needs to enjoy a sweet sleep under the soothing effect of divine magic, and when she wakes up, she can hold her newborn baby..."
The editor of Arcane was even more elevated:
"We are delighted to see that the founder of the cesarean section not only possesses an endless curiosity but also cares deeply about public welfare. Undoubtedly, this research can reduce maternal mortality rates, thus benefiting the entire society..."
Two top journals simultaneously published articles by a single researcher, giving high praise. The impact of the cesarean section treatnt thod quickly spread to every corner of the Kent Kingdom with the release of the journals.
...And quietly crossed the sea, spreading in the Rhine Kingdom, the Carolingian Kingdom, and various countries under the control of the Radiant Church.
Theoretically, the Church sees magicians as blasphers and followers of the God of Nature, the God of War, and the Spring Goddess as heretics. They view their research and writings as blasphemy and extrely sinful.
In those kingdoms, in areas controlled by the Radiant Church, catching heretics and blasphers ans imprisonnt in the Inquisition, and being burned at the stake;
Discovering the holy emblems and robes of other gods, and various journals of the Magic Council can lead to imdiate raids and arrests;
As for the products of the Magic Council, theoretically, they are all prohibited from sale. But in reality?
In reality, although the Holy Light equally covers the earth, so people can bathe in more of it than others.
For example, a powerful lord secretly keeping a magician in his ho would rarely face any trouble;
Or, so border lords marrying into the noble families of the Kent Kingdom, as long as the person who cos over claims to have converted, the Radiant Church wouldn’t pick a fight;
Moreover, a not-so-destitute noble family collecting a few issues of Arcane or Magic would not face random searches...
These days, truly powerful lords, occupying a county or even parts of a kingdom, invariably have a few spellcasters, a few Sky Knights, or even a legendary figure.
For instance, in the Rhine Kingdom, one of the seven lords with the power to elect the king, Duke of Saxony, who holds the title of "Golden Lion"...
He himself is a 17th-level Golden Knight, nearly at the pinnacle of knightly ranks;
His family also has an elder who has lived for over 300 years, a legendary old monster;
His only daughter, "Frost Flower" Veronica Rudolph, the next Duke of Saxony, a 12th-level Grand Knight, often leads troops at the border, defending against the vampire-ruled Black Forest Kingdom...
A family like this, a lord with real power, the Radiant Church wouldn’t provoke unless absolutely necessary. Even if the Duke of Saxony received the latest issues of Arcane and Magic, he would only get them half a month later than the Magic Council...
"Nina," he said, flipping through the newly received journal, smiling as he beckoned his daughter:
"If we master this skill, I wouldn’t be afraid when you get married and have children. Hm, how do we get that little magician? Should we send soone to kidnap him?"
"Father!!!"
Unlike the high and mighty lords, 5th-level female warrior lissa Humphrey found a torn page of Magic during an anti-smuggling operation in the New Continent.
What she saw was only the title and abstract of the paper.
"The author of this paper has so far completed 17 cesarean sections, assisting in childbirth by cutting open the mother’s abdon and removing the fetus, with all mothers and children currently safe. The author will discuss the thods and indications of these surgeries..."
Seventeen cases? All mothers and children safe?
So, when I give birth, if I can’t deliver, could I also use this thod to save my life?
lissa gently touched her abdon in the dark, pondering for a long ti. A week later, she quietly found a sea trader:
"Is there a ship going to the Kent Kingdom?"
These two papers, like two huge stones thrown into deep water, created ripples that continued to spread in the water.
The further the spread, the more distant the ripples seed less noticeable, but the influence of the papers only grew as the ripples hit entities and were reflected back, becoming more and more turbulent.
Of course, the Radiant Church would not ignore these two papers. In the Inquisition, the High Inquisitor "slamd" the two journals in front of his subordinates:
"Look at this!"
Deputy Inquisitor Lusen lowered his head, bowed, and took the papers with both hands. He skimd through them quickly and bowed again:
"This is blasphemy! This is the greatest blasphemy against our Lord! This blaspher has committed two major sins!
— Won suffer during childbirth because of their original sin, decreed by our Lord. Any ans to help them is to go against our Lord’s decree!
— The human body was created by our Lord, and cutting it is blasphemy against our Lord! Only after the mother’s death, for the peace of the fetal soul, can the fetus be taken out by cutting the abdon. Any other ans are blasphemy!"
"Good. So, what are you going to do about it?"
"I... The sea has been quite chaotic recently, I can’t send many people..."
"When will you resolve it?"
"I will do it as soon as possible! As soon as possible!— Six months! At most six months!"
"I’ll give you a year. If it’s still unresolved in a year, you will personally set out to eliminate this blaspher!"
Deputy Inquisitor Lusen reluctantly complied, enduring the High Inquisitor’s scolding for a long ti before leaving dejectedly. Returning to his office, he secretly gritted his teeth:
Wasn’t it just that I let that little guy go before?
There was a 14th-level Archmage in front of , and reinforcents with an airship behind him, what could I have done?
How was I supposed to know he would achieve such success now?
And now I truly don’t have enough people!
Lately, the sea has been unusually tumultuous; the orcs have been causing a lot of trouble. Out of ten rchant ships, about three encounter pirates; even the Church’s warships, when pirate ships gather, dare to take a bite...
The personnel, superhumans, and fleets I can mobilize are all scattered at sea! Until the orcs are subdued, I really can’t assemble a strong enough team.
Sigh, that viper Arezzo hasn’t responded for so long, I wonder if he’s fallen in Nevis...
