Bishop Cobler walked down the corridor to the depths of the building.
It is not the first time he has visited the building.
The Pope's Auditorium is occasionally used as a place of honours, and it was here that Bishop Kobler was conferred the command of the Third Crusade as a young man.
In the past, this place was a place full of honor for Bishop Cobbler, but now those glorious memories of the past have turned into a nightmarish existence torment Bishop Cobbler.
But these memories are very clear.
He followed the crowd to the first prayer room in the auditorium.
In the past, this was the place where the Pope used to pray, but this was just a pretense, and the judge kept a kind of "incorporeal creature" here.
Bishop Kobler doesn't know what the creature is, and its food source is completely unknown.
But every judge can feel its existence, and judges call it "Messenger".
"You just need to touch your gods and that's enough."
Bishop Cobler's ears echoed the hoarse voice's instructions.
The gods here refer to the statues in the prayer room.
He walked quickly into the prayer room and began to look around for the statue of the God of Light.
The light in the prayer room was very dim, so dim that I could barely see the figures around me.
But the Inquisitor has night vision ability, and Bishop Kobler's line of sight looked towards the front of the prayer room.
The statue of the God of Light had long since disappeared, replaced by a glowing plane on which a picture of a man who seemed to be being interrogated was played.
"Devil's tricks!"
Bishop Kobler scolded in a low voice. He did not expect Saint Heluria to betray the Holy City to such an extent.
In order to accommodate the creation of the devil, he actually did such a crazy thing to tear down the statue of the god.
The statue has disappeared, does this also mean that his mission has failed
An anxious mood came over Bishop Kobler, and his brain gradually began to be swallowed by a kind of confusion, for which he began to bite his thumb.
The force of the bite was so strong that the blood on the thumb overflowed, and this pain made him barely calm down the anxiety in his heart.
The messenger's breath did not disappear.
Bishop Kobler raised his head and looked around. He could feel that the creature named "Messenger" was still in the prayer room!
"The messenger will lodge around people and objects. If the statue is destroyed, touching the surrounding humans may make the messenger appear."
A hoarse voice resounded in Bishop Kobler's mind again.
Touch the people around you? Bishop Kobler raised his head, and only then did he realize that there were surprisingly many people sitting in the prayer room.
The benches in the prayer room were almost full!
Isn't this a prayer room dedicated to the Pope, how could it be...
"Come here! Come here!"
Suddenly, the noisy voice echoed in the entire prayer room, and Bishop Kobler suddenly raised his head and looked forward.
It was only then that he realized that this was no longer a prayer room, but a cinema hall!
The picture created by the demon is being presented in front of his eyes.
But this time, what he saw on the screen was not a demon... but a group of humans.
Bishop Cobler doesn't notice what's in front of the movie, but now it's a bunch of humans roaring around the bars.
A magic car stopped outside the fence, and a group of people in chains walked down from it.
Is that... a prison
"Want to bet today? Rhett."
"Gamble on cigarettes or money?"
The dialogue of the people in the picture echoed in the ears of Bishop Kobler, but he didn't care about it at all. His eyes were withdrawn from the picture and looked at the crowd sitting below. In order to find the "Messenger", he could not continue here. stand!
"I admit that I didn't feel anything special when I first met Andy. He looked like he would fall to the ground when the wind blew, and that was my first impression of him."
Bishop Cobler walked towards the people sitting in the last row, and when he touched the group of people without leaving a trace, the lines of the character named "Reid" still echoed in his ears.
He still focused on finding the whereabouts of the messenger, until Bishop Cobler walked past the last row, came to the penultimate row, pretended to be a very picky audience member, and walked through the gap between the seats.
The words that sounded in his ear stopped Bishop Kobler's footsteps there instantly.
"You were convicted and sent here, rule number one, no blasphemy! I don't allow anyone to blaspheme in my prison."
This sentence made Bishop Kobler stop moving, and looked up at the screen, a man wearing glasses stood in front of all the prisoners.
"The warden is also a devout believer..."
"Those poor prisoners must repent."
Bishop Kobler understood the identity of the man with glasses after listening to the arguments of the people next to him.
The warden is the administrator of the prison.
Bishop Kobler just reacted to the gods in it, he ignored the plan to continue the work at hand, but it didn't take long...
"I believe in only two things, discipline and the canon... You have both here, give your mind to God, your body to me, and welcome to Shawshank."
The warden's line made Bishop Kobler stunned.
He looked at Andy, the male protagonist who was washed with water in the picture.
When Bishop Kobler first joined the Crusaders, he had heard a similar line, that is, "give your mind to the gods."
But the difference is... Bishop Kobler is a glorious crusader, but the hero in the picture is a vile prisoner.
Gods and canons, devout believers... Isn't this the product of demons
"Undoubtedly, the first night was the hardest, walking into the cage naked, as if you were just born, the disinfectant powder made your skin feel like it was on fire, they threw you into the cage and closed the iron door, and then you Feels like it's real, and everything is gone in an instant..."
Reid's monologue echoed in Bishop Kobler's ears again, and the line "everything is gone from you" made him stunned there...
No... This is just a story made up by someone! Devil's trick!
Knowing this, Bishop Kobler once again retracted his gaze.
He walked straight past the penultimate row, and after coming into contact with those people, in order not to attract attention, he walked to the front row and continued to disguise himself as a spectator who chose a position.
The audience's pious admiration for the warden didn't last long, and it was calmed down by the oppressive atmosphere of the night.
But soon... a harsh voice broke the silence in the theater.
"I don't belong here!!"
In the picture, a fat-looking prisoner shouted, and the other prisoners immediately began to boo.
"let me out!"
Bishop Kobler looked up and saw the prisoner lying on the railing, crying and praying.
This scene inexplicably aroused the anger of Bishop Kobler.
"Stupid, crying and begging for mercy doesn't do anything." Bishop Kobler said in a low voice, gritted his teeth.
