"You're here again." Crowley was actually feeding the pigeons again. Hopefully she doesn't actually eat them this time.
"The employee of Smith who died." Zach was not in the mood to talk nonsense, "Is he sick?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." Crowley probably thought Zach's seriousness was just a show, "I don't know what Mike and Chapman told you, and I don't know what happened~"
"Crowley, I'm not in the mood to talk to you right now..."
Crowley wasn't being childishly funny, her gaze was diverted to somewhere in the living area. Zach looked over and what did he see? Uh, I saw Daisy looking through a certain window with a pair of hateful eyes.
Damn it, these women all came from the same place? Uh, what was the purpose of the former reformatory? What's going on here! Is it a training ground for professional women
"You're slow." Crowley chuckled and whispered, "Want to change places."
Zach didn't want to admit that he was in a bad state in front of Crowley, so he walked directly in front.
Entering the church, at the end of the corridor was the clergy's rest area. Zach didn't have time to wait any longer, so he asked the same question again in the corridor.
"Yes, he and his partner." Crowley answered simply. "Originally, they were going to the central part of the country with the freighter, but because of the escaping, they were driven back by the crew. However, Valmina's share of the central part was After you were destroyed, Smith seized the opportunity..."
"I'm not interested in hearing you analyze Smith's form. I want to go find Rimmer." This was a mockery. Everyone guessed that Eve would be happy if Crowley had any insights into Smith's industry. "Where is his partner. "
Crowley raised her eyebrows, really not knowing what Zach was worried about. "Why are you anxious? Are you interested in them?" Crowley waved her hand, "Don't worry, I have someone watching over me."
"Where?"
Crowley didn't understand Zach's hot pursuit, "He's resting at home. Is anything wrong?"
Zach frowned and didn't explain. "Send someone to the North District Police Station and tell Sibella this. Now."
"Sibella is at the police station?" Crowley felt that questions were coming one after another, but even if she asked, she would not be answered.
"This partner, address." Not only did Zach not answer the question, he also kept asking.
"What are you going to do?" Crowley asked, "Do you want Smith to send someone over to deal with it? Well, Zach, this time, Smith will really kill people..."
It means the person who went to kill Daisy's boyfriend's body before. It was Zach who informed the Smith faction. If Zach had been kind enough to inform Smith this time, the body would not have been killed. Daisy's boyfriend's partner is still alive.
"Tell me the address." Zach said impatiently.
"Uh." Crowley shook her head, with dark eyes flashing, "West End, Leroy Street..."
Zach raised his hand to stop, "No, keep an eye on him. Don't let him enter the South and North Districts." Zach's expression actually felt like he was wasting time.
Crowley blinked, "Are you going to tell me what's going on? Does it have anything to do with the wizard's enchantment?"
"Where did this speculation come from?" Zach immediately asked. Staring at Crowley.
"You just mentioned Sibella, and you specifically mentioned the South and North districts. What do you expect me to think of?" Crowley was speechless. A certain feeling had actually been in her heart for a long time, and Zach was repelling her.
It was not obvious before that as a vampire, there was no need to be kind to her, a fallen angel who appeared halfway, but after returning from the trip to the Republic. After discovering Lip's explanation about the future, this feeling became more and more obvious. We can confirm that Crowley was right.
"We all know that a lot of things have happened in Barton recently." Crowley stared at Zach's expressionless face, "I don't think we can say that our previous cooperation was happy, but at least we are cooperating. Now. You seem completely unwilling. Talk to me about anything.”
"Then you feel unbalanced?" Zach raised his eyebrows. Crowley said it so plainly, so just let her be satisfied, "Because I keep hearing from your people, Mike, Chapman, You can even count Jessica, where I can get information and help, and use your people to complete my things, but you can’t get anything from me?”
"No." Instinctively, he pursed his lips and shook his head, "Yes. And I have the right to feel unbalanced. You know that if I wanted to, I wouldn't let any of them help you. This is the situation now, I don't have the right to feel unbalanced." I didn’t feel that my kindness was properly responded to.”
"Then if I tell you the reason why I want you to do this now, is that considered a response to you?"
Crowley was very unhappy. Zach's words and tone, what's this? A disdainful charity, "Toledo, tell me, you don't really believe those lies about the dream demon (Li Pu), do you? No one can confirm the future, not even our Holy Lord, you actually let a dream The devil's words got into your mind, I really..."
This is what Crowley thinks is key, what makes Zach repulse her.
"What are you talking about?" Zach raised his hand to stop, "I thought we had reached a consensus on this point." When Coulson suspected that aliens were carrying out terrorist attacks in Barton, he took James to the train station. Checking the foreign population, "We don't care about the future that the dream demon said."
"That's why." Crowley frowned, "Your attitude towards me is unreasonable..."
"Yes." Zach decided to speak frankly, there was no need to hide, "I really don't care about the future that Lip said. But, he reminded me of one thing, one thing that I will care about."
"What! I control the world?" Crowley laughed, mockingly.
"Of course not. A world controlled by alien souls?" Zach smiled and shook his head, "A world controlled by fallen angels in the eyes of dream demons who are quite illusory among alien souls." What did Zach want to express? "Listen to me carefully, Crowley, can't you hear the problem here?"
Crowley was actually stunned.
Zach wasn't going to explain. Let me do it. This world, sorry, is not a world of alien souls. Do you need more details? The door to hell opened so that Crowley could appear here; Camille said that the Holy Lord in heaven was missing, and the angels came to this world to find their master, and then they were stupid enough to be trapped by Papa. The Republic; wandering spirits, phantom people, shadow people, earth-bound spirits... Needless to say, these are in every moment of their lives. They are all absorbing, borrowing, and desperately grasping the sense of existence in this world.
We don’t know who created this world, but this world is not friendly to soul aliens at all. Do you want to stay here? You can only survive. Find a container to preserve your strength, hide in the shadows to regain your sense of existence, use other people's bodies as proof of your own existence, use straps to hold on to anything you can, or else. Just wait to disappear.
A polar bear wants to dominate the rainforest? Save it.
Zach didn't care whether Crowley understood it or not, "What I care about is that I was reminded that you have a purpose here, Crowley, and it has nothing to do with this world. You are here for hell. I don't care about you fallen angels either." What is the situation in hell? I only understand a little of what Lip said. If you are allowed to act as you please, I will be very distressed, very distressed. After you achieve your goal, you can go home and return to your world - hell, and I, Still here, this world is my home..."
In Lip's future, there are only Zach and Madison, who wrote Zach's biography. Where is Benjamin? Where is Alice? What about Grande? Who knows what the world 'controlled' by the fallen angels is like, but Zach. In his current comfortable and casual life, he has everything he has now. He doesn’t want to lose anything in the future.
"Like anyone who lives and works in peace and contentment, I don't have any ambitions. What do I expect the world to be like? If you ask me, what I have now is very good and I want to maintain it. Then the problem arises." Zach glanced at Crowley. "But you seem to have a very clear purpose. You are just a guest who smuggled into this world, but you have a purpose for this world." Zach tilted his head, "This makes me unhappy."
The words have been spoken. Crowley spoke after a moment of silence. She looked at Zach, "The gate to hell is open, and the conflict between fallen angels and ordinary demons is at its most intense moment. In the fight for the passage to the present world, the fallen angels lost, and Barton is The only city we have obtained. You said I have a purpose, I do, I want souls. I need numbers, I need support, to reverse the defeat of the fallen angels in hell."
"Compared to the Federation, Barton is not worth mentioning." In terms of the number of souls, Zach reminded.
"So I need high-quality souls." The corners of Crowley's eyes twitched, "Not those old people who go to church to worship after they have nothing to do after retirement, nor ordinary people who can only use hell and heaven as spoken words!"
"So you collected soul aliens when you first came to Barton."
"Yes. But the key point is that I need believers who belong to the Holy Lord's faith, so that their souls are worthy of my acceptance. I also want to control Barton's dark forces and create undead souls that should belong to hell."
A lower one is like the skulls in the Southeast, and a higher one is like the West Enders in the early days. "Some people's souls are black. I need those people to influence more people while they are alive, and to be more completely depraved, and when the final judgment comes, They voluntarily belong to hell instead of the current reality where only hell can go! They are powerful souls and will become powerful demons, belonging to me, the force of the fallen angels."
It seems that Crowley has told everything, and she really has no reservations about this purpose that people don't want to imagine. Maybe there will be some confusion at this time, let’s talk about it together.
Even the angel Camille admitted that he could not do any better in the worship conducted by the fallen angel. Then, does worship, which is recognized by angels, make people better? No, there is a difference between making people beautiful and making people beautiful.
Worship sermons have one and only one purpose: to tell believers where the boundaries of faith are—where the boundaries of discerning sin are.
Then in the confessional of the church, no matter what the penitent said to the priest, living with guilt, uncertainty and confusion in order to make his life better, the priest would only say, "Child, the Lord has heard your voice. Yes, I forgive you on behalf of the Lord."
Those who repent feel better, but do they need to be reminded that the priest is a possessed demon? Nothing has been forgiven. All the doubts and confusions that arose during the sermon, all the attempts at atonement after the sermon, and all the things that were thought to have been transcended are still there, not a little less, achieving the final judgment of faith.
To take an extreme example, Matthew's father believed that his inability to work was a sin, but he was comforted by the God and Demon Father. He educated a good boy like Matthew and atoned for his sin. What was redeemed? He is still unable to work and works as an idle deacon in a church in the South District, relying on the church for support. He also brings a werewolf (Matthew) with him every Sunday to listen to the devil's sermons. What did he redeem? At the Last Judgment, it will be a sin not to work, it will be a sin to act foolishly, it will be a sin to raise a son who is opposed to witchcraft and belief, and it will be a sin to pollute the church of the faith. Yes, he will live a happy life under Matthew's care, but if Grande doesn't do something, he will go to hell.
There are less extreme examples, such as Smith. He took his whole family to attend church services every week and donated money to get a nominal title. The sins of his underground business were offset? No, and to make a malicious guess, when Smith found himself in hell, he might have said, "Haha, as expected, the donation is not enough."
Just like the ideological lessons in childhood, faith teaches children good and evil. There is only one thing Crowley is doing, 'You are wrong, you must know that you are wrong, remember that you are wrong, if you are wrong, you will go to hell. Haha, but don’t be confused, you still need to walk on the road of life by yourself, move forward bravely, the Lord is watching you. Come, follow me and recite the above ten thousand times. '
Still, look at the people around us. No one has grown up to meet the moral standards in the textbooks. There are still extremely vicious people squatting in prisons, and there are still people on the streets who casually stick chewing gum on street lamps.
For faith, life is just like a child. In the adult world, after the trial of faith, demons and angels are the camps chosen when they grow up. What Crowley wants is believers who voluntarily come to choose a camp!
"And because of you, Grande." Crowley still frowned, "I lost the southeast, and I can't take action against those people in the west. All I can do is cultivate believers. And then use my power carefully. Five seconds to the gate of hell!" These words were full of resentment.
"This is for your own good." Zach waved, "If you are allowed to expand your influence, even if I don't do anything, Anthony will. You don't want him to tear down your church, right?"
"So I cooperated." Crowley's resentment was still there, "I think I have shown my sincerity."
"I also helped you win over Constantine." Zach was very direct. "I responded to your sincerity." He tilted his head and said, "As long as you can play the role of a preacher who represents your faith, I have no problem with it. Anthony and I both We don’t care where people go after death, whether it’s only hell in reality or the promise of heaven brought by Camille, we only care about the people alive in this world.”
Crowley was ready to say something.
Zach took the lead, "Okay, I've wasted too much time with you. Just remember what I said. We only care about the people living in this world. Your purpose is to fight for the fallen angel forces in hell." Take action and find a way to bypass the parts we care about, and then we can talk about mutual harmony." (.)
