With the ability of [Theory of Ten Thousand Chances], even if Jenkins is not the god of lies, even if he is not the savior of the world, as long as he is willing to learn, he can still become a god. This is the foundation of becoming a god, although even if you have such abilities, you may not be able to become a god, but for mortals, unless you are born in the world of the ruler and have the opportunity to bear sins for various reasons, or at the end of the era Be the savior, otherwise, this will be the only chance for mortals to transcend themselves.
The three new abilities are extremely powerful, but to Jenkins, they don't actually mean much. His enemy is the machine, and has a deeper mechanical power than him, so his ability actually has almost no effect on the difference machine itself. For example, he never thought that he could use [Mechanical Light] to disassemble the difference machine , Thinking about it, I know it's impossible.
The greatest significance of ability evolution is that Jenkins once again understands the power of his enemy and clearly understands what the other party can do.
This is the priceless treasure, and any news about the difference engine is priceless now.
The church believes that Jenkins has been inside the negotiating room, so someone needs to tell him what happened.
While talking with Alexia, I realized that it was Miss Bevanna, Miss Streiss and Gilbert who came. Miss Bevanna startled Jenkins as soon as she opened her mouth:
"A person can have multiple emblems of the Savior!"
"Yes... yes, that's why I want to get [The Uncrowned King]."
He asked a little guilty, but at least he looked normal. At this time, the bleeding from the seven orifices has been wiped away, and no one can see what he did just now:
"So, what do you mean by that?"
"The identity of the savior can be owned in plural! There are six or seven believers in lies! Five of them died ridiculously just now! Saint William, do you understand?"
Mr Gilbert added.
Jenkins blinked, thought for a while, and confirmed that he hadn't revealed his secrets, so he said calmly:
"Yes, I see."
Of course he didn't know what the other party meant, but it was always right to follow along.
"That's it! Six believers of lies died in front of us just now, but except for Mr. Candle, the venerable hero, there are doubts about the deaths of others. Now we finally know, know the shadow that hangs over the cult of lies Mysteries, knowing the secrets hidden by believers of lies, knowing the reason for their mysterious whereabouts all the time, knowing that they have only one purpose every time they appear, knowing the answers to many questions all the time."
said Miss Strese, her tone also excited:
"And this speculation has been recognized by other churches."
"What did the Church guess?"
Alexia asked with a smile. She had already guessed that Jenkins was lucky this time. Although the method was a bit clumsy, at least the effect was achieved.
"There are not so many believers in lies! For a long time, a few people have appeared in different identities! They are hiding secrets! They are hiding the most important secret! One person can have multiple emblems!"
Gilbert's voice gradually became higher, and Jenkins looked around worriedly.
"The suspended animation just now was because they couldn't gather 7 people to participate in the negotiation, so they wanted to reduce the number of people in front of us!"
This sentence is absolutely true.
"The number of believers in lies is extremely small. Maybe they have a large group of ordinary people helping to carry out the deception, but there are only a very small number of people who are really at the core! Yes, believers in lies, in fact—only two people!"
That statement was completely wrong, and Jenkins breathed a sigh of relief.
"Jenkins, think about it carefully, among those believers in lies, how many of them clearly used the code names or names they chose for themselves?"
Miss Strese asked again.
"... Mister Candle and Miss Fabry?"
Others, such as the man in black robe, were code names given to them by the church, only "Mr. Candle" and "Miss Fabry" were names made by Jenkins.
"Yes, St. Williams, what do you think it is about?"
Mr. Gilbert asked again.
"Because only these two people really exist, they must have their own names if they want to move around the city and trade in the black market; while the others don't exist at all, so it doesn't matter whether they have names or not, and having no names is more conducive to concealment and cooperation. It’s hard to tell who it is.”
Alexia answered for Jenkins, then laughed herself:
"So that's the truth, that's why the behavior and ability characteristics of some believers of lies are so similar, even the sword and the unicorn... It's really surprising, that's why, that's why .”
She said jokingly, then looked at Jenkins, and saw that Jenkins was sullen and silent.
"Miss Miller, your guess is our guess. The church agrees with this point of view. Those people are really cunning. If it wasn't because they were forced to appear on the stage, so they planned a rough method of feigning death, no one would have guessed it. That's the truth."
Mr. Gilbert nodded.
"Yes, no one can guess."
Jenkins agreed and looked at Alexia, who really wanted to laugh.
"I didn't expect believers of lies to have moments of embarrassment, because time is urgent, and finally they have to use such clumsy means to hide their secrets. But lies will always have moments when they are exposed. They may be very powerful, but they are absolutely impossible to keep They can maintain their own standards.”
Miss Bevanna nodded and said.
The thinking of the church is inexplicably astray, but from their point of view, it is normal to think of this. This kind of thinking is normal. Although it deviates from reality, it is at least more correct than the original guess that there are six or seven believers in lies.
Over time, maybe the church can further guess that there is only one believer in the lie, and then over time, it can further guess that that person is actually inside the church, and then over time, it can further discover that that person is His Majesty the Son.
But time was running out, so there was no chance to give them time.
Based on the current judgment, the church guessed that after Miss Fabbri arrived, she would definitely not show too much sadness. Since there are only two people at the core of the Cult of Lies, the death of one person means that Miss Fabbri can take over everything in the Cult, and even the original "infighting" to compete for the qualification to be the savior is omitted.
After all, if there are six or seven people in the cult, the death of others will inevitably make people sad; but if there are only two people, and there are still two people in a competitive relationship, then the death of the other person will definitely make the living ecstatic, especially The church knew that the lie believers had always had a cold relationship, and that Miss Fabbri was unmarried and had nothing to do with Mr. Candle.
The attitude of Miss Fabbri for a while can be used to verify the above conjecture of the church. Although so far, this guess has been considered absolutely correct.
"You are amazing."
After Miss Bevanna and the others left, Alexia teased and said:
"Isn't that your purpose?"
"Whatever you say, I'm worried about Dad right now... Well, I've thought about this possibility, but it's definitely not my intention. It's just that I didn't expect that the church would be able to guess to this extent without me saying a word. "
"But, you are... God."
She kissed Jenkins on the side of the cheek:
"Your thoughts can affect reality."
She whispered softly.
"So can my current thoughts affect reality?"
Jenkins looked Alexia in the eyes and asked, who patted his arm lightly:
"rogue."
"Oh, Alexia, admit it, you really can read minds!"
But in any case, since the church thinks it has discovered the truth, no one will think about the real truth "the believer of lies is Jenkins", which is also a good thing.
(Chocolate is running... )
Mr. Candle repelled another attack from the Difference Engine at the cost of killing himself. Although the disaster that followed the three bells would not stop, at least the temporary safety of the Church of the Sages was guaranteed.
The defense ceremonies stopped one after another, and the demigods of the church also returned to the meeting place. At close to three o'clock in the afternoon, they were finally ready to start negotiations.
The atmosphere of sadness pervades the people, not because of the disaster that has come, after all, most people still believe that the disaster will be resolved eventually. Sorrow is because of sacrifice, Mr. Candle's sacrifice, heroic sacrifice.
The deaths of the first five people are funny, and of course it is hard to believe, but Mr. Candle and the metal head died together, which happened in front of people. Now Mr. Candle's dilapidated corpse has been found, and together with the corpses of his suspicious companions, he temporarily stays in the church.
People were waiting for the arrival of Miss Fabri, and when Princess Sophia appeared at the door of the church in a rental carriage, and then led by the nuns, she walked up to the negotiating field through the stairs, and she was standing at the end of the stairs. At the entrance of the venue, everyone stood up and looked at her, and the atmosphere didn't seem to be welcoming the final protagonist to enter the venue, but it was a bit like... mourning.
Princess Sophia, dressed in a black dress, didn't know what happened. She just memorized the lines given by Jenkins, and Jenkins didn't say that she would still attend the memorial service.
"..."
So she took off the white bonnet with the flowers slanted on it, and stood there to accept the attention of people, even if she didn't know what was going on, she had to pretend to know everything. Princess Sophia has a strong aura, and she is more suitable to play the role of "Miss Fabrice" than Jenkins. Of course, it would be more appropriate if she had a cat.
