The barbed wire pulled Dalia into the air, bringing her face to face with the mummy on the bed high above.
At this moment, Dalia looked terrified and her face was distorted. She no longer had the "righteous and calm" look she had just had when she was burning the "devil".
Below her, seven or eight sharp iron wires entangled and stabbed into her fiercely.
Amidst the shrill screams, drops of blood fell from the air, followed by a bloody mist.
Luke looked at Dalia, who looked as if she had been tortured by a dozen wire saws, and his heart remained calm.
Except for the barbed wire used to deal with the old woman Dalia, the rest of the dense wire spread everywhere, rolling up, strangling and piercing to death all the locals who had nowhere to escape.
The whole church was filled with screams and cries, like hell.
Is this scene cruel? It does look cruel.
But Luke remained unmoved.
Because here, he is the only real living person.
The rest, whether it's the "person" on the hospital bed, Ross's mother and daughter, the little girl with untied hair, or the locals who are tied up and strung together with barbed wire, are all like this weird town, half true and half false, neither true nor false.
Ever since he entered the church, the names of these locals in the system panel were all marked with (evil spirit).
Therefore, they are not human beings at all.
Therefore, he used his faith value when he killed the tall man.
Otherwise, if you shoot him in the head, he might show up alive and well the next day.
So, he used a gun to kill those monsters outside that had no names.
After all, without income from experience points, using faith points is a pure loss.
When he left for the first time, he explicitly asked Rose if she wanted to leave with him, which was to give her the last chance of survival.
If Ross doesn't leave, then we can only leave it to fate.
It's hard to persuade a damned ghost with good intentions.
There was no way Luke would risk Stacey's life to save a stranger.
After coming back for the second time, when he saw Rose again, there was also an additional description of (evil spirit) after her name.
According to what the little girl with disheveled hair said just now, it is obvious that during the time when Luke left and returned, Ross had been successfully transformed into an (evil spirit) by the other party, and came to destroy the church for the little girl.
Ross may have been deceived, but there was nothing Luke could do.
We can ask him to kill people, ghosts and demons, but how about asking him to turn an evil spirit back into a human? Sorry, there is no such method in either demonology or black magic knowledge.
There are methods to turn evil spirits into puppets and slaves, but those steps themselves are anti-human.
Kill N people to save one person, and use this method to help Ross? Sorry, Luke is not that great.
Those locals are all well-known evil spirits, and Ross, the only outsider besides Luke, is a "transportation tool". Look at the person on the hospital bed, he is obviously burned and wrapped up.
Combined with the fact that I found out about some cases that happened in this small town in the 1960s and 1970s, the story is basically clear.
In the 1960s and 1970s, this group of local people, led by an old woman named Dalia, set up a church organization.
As a means of uniting and winning over members of the organization, Dalia labeled all the women in the town who were generally recognized as "low-class and slutty" as witches.
Then she held secret meetings again and again to "purify" these "witches" - that is, to burn them to death.
The townspeople who participated in this ritual became accomplices and had no choice but to join them.
Until one day, Daria's sister gave birth to a little girl, Alessa, out of wedlock.
This was a major blow to Daria's prestige.
She burned to death those women who seduced other people's husbands, but her own sister gave birth to a child without even having a husband.
When the little girl, Alesha, went to primary school, Daria could no longer bear it and simply put her "niece" into the stove to perform "purification".
As a result, an accident occurred during the "purification" of Aretha. The overturned stove caused a huge fire, and finally inexplicably ignited the coal layer under the town.
Many people were killed or injured in the disaster. The survivors could not live in a place filled with toxic gases, so they all moved away and the town was abandoned.
What the outside world does not know is that when the fire broke out, the "purified" little girl Alesha actually awakened into a "devil" out of pain and despair.
She created a huge spiritual energy field, pulling in the local church members whom she hated, forming the present Silent Hill of white, gray and darkness.
In fact, both Alesha and the locals died in the big fire in the 1970s.
It was Alesha who used her terrifying mental abilities to "preserve" herself and these people in this half-true, half-false world.
These people always have food when they go out and can always find clothes and things to use.
So for decades they have had no worries about food and drink, and they don’t have to worry about toilet paper consumption, because they are unaware of these “irrationalities”.
Just like in a game, "refreshing" supplies and monsters is a very normal thing.
Of course, Luke wasn't fully aware of everything that happened after the fire.
The real files only show that many people died in the town, including the little girl Alesha and the old woman Dalia.
But this did not prevent him from judging that since the great fire thirty years ago, these "locals" before him have become the evil spirits of this world.
And all the people here, except Ross and a woman with disheveled hair and tattered clothes, all started out as famous celebrities.
Alesha and Dalia, the archenemy, are both extremely famous.
Ross and the disheveled woman hiding in the corner, and all the others were Alyssa's targets.
Well, including Luke himself.
However, the barbed wire was rolled up several times, but it couldn't do anything to him.
He simply pulled out the knife from his waist and cut the nearby barbed wire with a few strokes.
This made Alesha on the hospital bed glance at him subconsciously, but she immediately looked away.
She was more eager for revenge than to deal with this strange outsider.
Alesha pulls these people into this world.
This world has its own characteristics, and her power is very weak in the white and gray scene.
In the dark scene, she was very powerful, but she was unable to break through the fanaticism of this group of people and enter the church.
A strong fortress is always easier to collapse from the inside.
Finally, she found Ross, a "delivery man", and tried to smuggle herself in.
Although the plan went awry, the unexpected outsider did not stop her from entering here.
Now, she was going to enjoy this wonderful moment of revenge.
For a moment, the entire venue was splattered with blood and screams were heard everywhere.
The culprit, Dalia, was pierced like a sieve by countless barbed wires.
If this were the real world, she would have died a hundred times already.
In this world, she never died, but could only hang in the air, enduring the punishment of being pierced by thousands of threads and cut into pieces.
The old woman could do nothing but scream loudly.
Below the hanging Dalia, Ross's daughter Sharon was already standing there quietly.
A smile appeared on her upturned little face. Daria's blood dripped onto her face. She suddenly giggled, stretched out her hands and started spinning in circles.
That laughter was filled with incomparable joy and childlike innocence.
Luke raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment: "Victoria, play a song for me."
Intelligent Program Victoria: "Sir, which song should I play?"
Luke: "Just the nursery rhyme from a few days ago."
Victoria: “Yes sir.”
Amid the sound of the piano, Claire's voice, which she had deliberately suppressed, sounded exceptionally clear and tender: "Ding dong, I know you hear me, open up the door..."
