After carefully observing the anomaly for a while, Roy began to look at the information in the document again. He had to prepare for the next task.
"Since the other party is a cult leader, if I want to be recruited by her, my next character must be eager for her propaganda. I must be in a state of helplessness and despair. Only after I have tried everything and nothing works, will I choose to try to believe them."
Roy knelt in his tent and thought for a long time. He began to use his own conditions to plan his new image.
A cracked square mirror was placed in front of Roy. He stared at himself in the mirror and began to speak in a low voice.
"I was a veteran. Years of combat left me with severe post-traumatic stress disorder. Because of this disorder, I accidentally killed my child."
"Although I was not sentenced because of my illness, it was more painful than going to jail. I actually killed my own daughter. I am such a beast. I fell into endless pain and self-blame. For this reason, I always carry my daughter's tapir wood carving toy with me."
As he spoke, Roy's expression and eyes began to change, and his breathing became a little rapid.
"I accidentally heard that there is a new religion that claims that as long as we become their believers, we can fulfill any of our wishes."
“I didn’t believe it at first, but when I saw a person with cancer come back with a rosy complexion, hope was rekindled in my heart.”
"Maybe it's true? Maybe they can really revive my daughter? I have nothing left, why shouldn't I try?"
"No, I have to leave quickly. If I don't leave now, it will be too late! Mia! I am willing to do anything to bring you back!"
Roy stood up suddenly, excitedly opened the tent, and rushed to the subway entrance as fast as he could.
As he ran, Roy's expression became more and more perfect. He took out the remaining money he had on him to pay the fare, and finally arrived at the remote suburbs before dark.
When Roy stopped again, he found that he was not the only one outside the iron gate of the manor. There were nearly a hundred people there.
They were dressed differently, there were both rich and poor people, the only thing in common was that they all had a look of doubt on their faces, and the police from the city were holding batons to maintain order.
"With so many people, can they really choose me? I heard that this religion is very strict in selecting people." Roy couldn't help but start to worry.
With a creaking sound, the black steel door opened, and Roy saw an Asian man walking out. "Tonight we will get together here to do"
Roy listened attentively and learned from the man that it was not so easy to join and that he had to go through a certain selection process first.
A small booklet with a black cover was distributed to everyone, containing the legend of a certain god. They had to read the book devoutly and worship the god in the book completely from the bottom of their hearts.
After finishing reading this book, the selection will begin, and this selection is very dangerous. If anyone is disrespectful to the god Futan, he will be devoured by the divine fire.
The choice is up to them. If they want to leave now, they can do so at any time, but once the divine fire of the powerful appears, everything will be over.
After hearing Wang Sheng's words, the crowd began to buzz, and soon some people began to withdraw. Seeing this, Roy was immediately delighted, "Great, there are fewer competitors."
As for the divine fire mentioned by that person, it was not even within Roy's consideration. In order to save his daughter, he was not afraid of death. How could he be afraid of this
If the divine fire is really not a prop but real, that would be great. It means that the god really exists and his daughter might really be able to be resurrected!
After more than 30 people left one after another, the others, led by Wang Sheng, slowly entered the hall. In the majestic and oppressive church, Roy saw some people in black robes holding brushes and smearing some brown liquid on the ground.
Roy moved his nose and immediately smelled gasoline. He looked at the strange statue in the distance and waited anxiously.
Meanwhile, in the basement, Anna frowned as she looked at the sacrifice records in front of her. "Why is the sacrifice to the Primordial Fire so unstable? It always works sometimes and doesn't work sometimes?"
Just as Anna was reviewing her previous successful sacrifice, Li Long's flattering voice came from the door, "Master Priest, a new batch of people has arrived."
Anna stood up, put away all the papers, put on her dark red hood, and turned to walk towards the door.
When she arrived at the church, she found that the magic circle on the ground had already been drawn by the believers. They took this matter very seriously.
Anna glanced at the people in front of her and whispered a few words to Wang Sheng beside her.
Soon, Wang Sheng stepped forward to eliminate some people who were so old that they had to use crutches, and some who were obviously seriously ill.
We will be going to the sea in a while, and this time we are recruiting members, in addition to the sacrificial experiment, to prepare seafarers.
Those who are obviously useless have no need to join at all. She will not accept useless people now.
There were cries and shouts, and some of the people who were eliminated lay on the ground, struggling and not wanting to leave.
Seeing those people being forcibly carried out, the remaining people couldn't help but hold their breath, fearing that they would be the next to be kicked out.
I was somewhat suspicious before, but after seeing this scene, I became much more stable.
Such strictness is enough to prove that they are completely different from those religions that people believe in out there.
As Anna's awkward incantations echoed in the church, the sacrifice began again.
When the flame of the magic circle began to turn green, Roy subconsciously felt that phosphorus was added to the flame.
But not long after, when he saw a person being instantly engulfed by the flames and turned into a pool of ashes on the ground in just a few seconds, he knew he was wrong.
No matter what is added to the flame, it will never have this effect.
Could it be that the God they were talking about really existed? Roy's heart began to beat rapidly. His daughter could really be saved!
This sacrifice was very successful. Two people were sacrificed in total. Together with the previous ones, a total of twenty people have been raised.
Just as Anna finished the ceremony and began to turn back, her body suddenly fell to the ground and began to twitch.
Other believers gathered around anxiously, trying to help her up.
But when their hands touched Anna's body, the intense burning sensation made them subconsciously let go.
At this time, smoke began to come out of Anna's body, and her clothes began to turn black rapidly.
The rotten green color that was summoned earlier began to spread rapidly along Anna's blood vessels, covering her body and face.
