Dong Xie was sweating profusely at this moment.
He went into the bathroom, took off all his clothes, and turned on the shower to rinse his body.
At this moment, he realized that he had been cornered. If he could not awaken his psychic essence, he would surely die. In this battle, he has no leeway. If he can't get out of this classroom, it is impossible for him to kill Werwin.
He let the hot water rush over his head, as soon as he thought of Welwin, all fear would be replaced by hatred and killing intent.
"Vervin Gominik! Vervin! Vervin!"
As long as he thought of Welwin, the hatred in his heart could surpass his fear.
He must kill Wilvin!
At this time, outside the door, everyone's emotions became more and more unstable. After all, a large number of devils gathered outside, but Dong Xie made no progress at all.
But... this time, Gao Ying really couldn't think of any way to do it. He even tried to throw ghost money before, but there is no doubt that it is completely impossible to "buy" the devil. As for the guns on his body, they are naturally useless to the devil.
Agnes's expression was particularly serious. After all, she could feel more intuitively how terrible the situation outside the classroom was than anyone else.
Now... not to mention going to take the midterm exam, it is even impossible to get out alive. In this situation, there is no other way but to place hope on Dong Xie. The thought of her own life being controlled by a person whose surname was Gominik made Agnes extremely upset.
"Let's go back and rest first." Gao Ying made a suggestion: "It seems that there will be no results in a short time. We gathered here and can't change anything. If this is the case, we can only wait patiently."
It is not Gao Ying's usual style to completely entrust one's own life and death to others. However, the reality is often cruel. Even though Gao Ying was full of wit and tricks, facing the current situation, he still had no countermeasures at all. Humans are too weak in front of the devil. Various rewards can only improve self-protection ability at most, and even an Abyss-level candidate can't kill a devil, at most it can seal it. Regarding this thorny issue, the Gerzwaren family has studied it for more than half a century, but the final conclusion is still unsolvable. Of course, this is the same for Welvin and the others. Whether it is the Vatican or Maoshan Taoist priests, there is no way to kill the devil in the exam.
The insurmountable gap between man and devil puts them at an absolute disadvantage in the exam forever. And to change this, there is only one way, to pass the final exam and gain immortality. This is the only way.
After Gao Ying and the others left, it was still a tormenting moment for Dong Xie.
He half-lyed in the shower, letting the hot water pour down from the top of his head.
Father Midley...
In my memory, the priest's voice and smile seemed to be just yesterday.
But the current priest has turned into an out-and-out devil. For Dong Xie, this psychological impact is quite large.
"what should I do… "
Dong Xie held his face in his hands. He knew that he was still a step away from the full awakening of the psychic medium. But this last step is like a natural moat, and it is not so easy to cross.
Father Midley has a high prestige in the Vatican and has close contacts with the Gominik family. In Dong Xie's impression, the priest said that the two figures he admired most were Mother Teresa and the other was the Rev. Martin Luther King. When Pastor Kim was assassinated, the priest was only 10 years old. Although Pastor Jin believes in Protestantism, which is different from the Catholicism the priest converted to, the priest very much approves of Pastor Jin's declaration of "I have a dream". He is the only one in the entire Vatican who speaks to the Gominik family and expressly opposes the initiative to hunt demon messengers.
The priest believes that the indiscriminate hunting of demon messengers on a large scale is not fundamentally different from the Salem witch hunt in the United States. He said that human beings are born with sins, but Jesus Christ was willing to atone for mankind and was crucified on the cross. Why should he kill the demon messengers indiscriminately? When he was a child, under the influence of Father Midley, who personally baptized him, Welvin did not take such a radical and crazy attitude towards demon messengers as he is now. As for Dong Xie, he is only an adopted son in the Gominik family, and he has no right to speak at all, and naturally he can't talk about supporting anything or opposing anything.
Welvin was influenced by the priest, and he once advised his father, Earl Gominik, that he agreed with the priest and believed that it was not necessary to kill all demon messengers. He even said that in the 1960s and 1970s, the Ku Klux Klan in the South used indiscriminate discrimination and even abuse against all blacks. Later, the affirmative movement corrected this mistake. But if the demon messengers are killed without discrimination, what is the difference between them and the Ku Klux Klan
If they saw Wilvin now, most people would find it hard to believe that he would look like this when he was a child.
Dong Xie also liked the priest very much. In the Gominik family, except for the earl and countess, others always looked at themselves with a bad face. Even Welvin didn't like himself very much. At that time, Dong Xie often went to the church where the priest was. He hoped to get an answer from God from the priest. He wanted to know why the power of the devil would be so powerful, and why the devil would be so terrifying. Since God exists, why not kill those devils? And the priest would always tell him to believe in God and believe that God loves the world. All the trials God gives them will become the cornerstone of faith.
Those days were short. However, in the church, in front of the priest, Dong Xie used to have full confidence in God. The priest always treats everyone lovingly and equally. It is completely unimaginable that he has a high status in the Vatican. Because of the threat of the devil, he had to separate from his parents and live in a shelter. The priest guided him to believe in God and opened a new door for him. It was also the faith guided by the priest that allowed him to survive the despair of losing his parents. However, such a priest died just like that. Not only did he die, but the god he believed in failed to save him from the devil, and turned him into a devil instead.
When the priest died tragically in front of Welvin, he completely changed his mind and became the current radical. This level of radicalism is even higher than that of Earl Gominik back then. And Dong Xie is the same. He hated the candidates who killed Earl Gominick, and later assisted Welvin to kill all those candidates. But the irony is that now both Dong Xie and Wei Erwen have become the candidates they once hated.
Dong Xie finally stood up and turned off the faucet.
"You are wrong... Father, God does not love the world. All the trials we have experienced are not the cornerstone of faith, but just make us more aware of the cruelty of this world and the fact that the devil is stronger than God. "
Dong Xie once thought that if he believed in God, he could defeat the devil by faith. Thinking about it now, how ridiculous.
"Father... you should have gone to heaven, you shouldn't have fallen to this level..."
Dong Xie walked out of the shower, came to the mirror, and wiped off the water vapor in front of the mirror.
"I still... Do I have to go this far?"
At the same time... Welvin walked to the door of the midterm exam room.
Isabella came up puzzled and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"God... Father..." At this moment, Welvin's body trembled. It was rare for Isabella to see such a change in him.
Wilvin clenched his fists.
"Father, he's here!"
Afterwards, Wilvin took a deep breath.
"Isabella, I must go out. I must go to the priest."
"Are you crazy, Wilvin?" Isabella couldn't believe her ears, "You knew this would..."
"I have been taught by the priest since I was a child. It is he who made me firmly believe in God. I can't let him become a demon like this. It doesn't matter. I have the reward of time control in my hand. It is impossible for the devil to kill me easily. In the name of God, I want to save the priest's soul... "
