Chapter 350: The Church and the Hunter(1/3)
[Affected by special reasons, your level cannot be further improved at present, and the experience points gained have been accumulated and saved! 】
…
A system prompt forced back the light effect that Cheng Shen had already seen.
He can't even level up until he regains his body.
Cheng Shen sighed helplessly.
Lift your head.
But he immediately found that this church became a little different in his eyes.
The narrow space inexplicably creates a strange sense of distance.
Things that seemed so close suddenly seemed to be a world away from me.
Under the dim firelight, there was an illusory white light moving slowly, as misty as smoke.
The statue of the Invisible Lord standing in front of me changed its shape at some point. It was no longer holding something in its arms. It raised its hands and raised its head, as if it was welcoming the arrival of some great being...
"doctor?"
Teresa's voice woke him up from that strange state. He turned around, but he almost didn't draw his sword.
A dry, dark and inhuman hand was quietly resting on Teresa's shoulder. She seemed unaware of it, but when she noticed Cheng Shen's gaze, she was slightly startled, then turned to look at the terrifying
palm.
"This is an invisible gift."
She frankly stated the fact that she could see the palm.
"Gift...?"
Cheng Shen couldn't detect the ghost's aura fluctuations, but the more so, the more he wanted to cut it off.
Teresa smiled slightly: "The fact that you can see its existence means that you have been recognized by our Lord. She will never ask for anything from us, but her tolerance and kindness always protect us."
"So, she is still a kind deity."
Cheng Shen was unconvinced.
He can indeed feel that after gaining status, he can get a kind of hidden protection in this church.
But he remained skeptical of what Teresa said.
No need to pay a low price when trading with God?
Perhaps so.
But that's just because her existence has not yet reached the point of being useful.
god,
It is never noble and selfless.
What's more, if they are evil gods and chaos gods, simply believing in and worshiping them will have a very serious impact on themselves.
So what is the purpose of the system...?
It's very quiet inside the church.
There was only the sound of Teresa adding some firewood to the brazier from time to time, stirring the charcoal fire. The few people who were originally very cautious and did not dare to talk easily became even more reticent after seeing the profound methods of the process.
"Woo..."
The old lady's wound was so painful that she couldn't help crying out in pain. The blind man suddenly said: "Doctor, can you help me treat my eyes?"
After hearing this, Teresa also raised her head and looked at Cheng Shen.
"Are you rich?"
Cheng Shen asked without raising his head.
After treating Mo Yinla well, his professional resume was updated with a description, but his performance did not increase at all.
Resume is something that only he can see and is basically useless.
performance,
consultation fee,
This is real income.
The blind man sneered and said: "I am just a wanderer who relies on church relief. If I had money, why would I stay here..."
"Laite's family members have all passed away, leaving him alone and helpless. I helped him apply medicine for his eye disease, but I have no experience in treating it, so I can only keep his condition from getting worse.
"
Teresa explained to him on the side.
"Wanderer?"
Cheng Shen turned his head and looked him over, "Are you a wanderer or a fleeing soldier? I'm not interested in your origins. I just paid Mother Teresa for taking me in. If you don't have money, don't bother me."
Bangdang...
The blind man stood up and bumped against the bench, but then he sat down again with a gloomy expression, "How did you know my identity?"
"..."
Cheng Shen turned around and was not interested in answering this question.
If it weren't for the sake of getting close to Teresa, he wouldn't even bother to reveal Laite's true identity. He would have already dealt with extraordinary beings and even gods! What's the point of chatting with a few ordinary people?
but.
His words also almost made it clear to Teresa...
"Mr. Laite..." Teresa was stunned, a trace of confusion flashed across her soft face, but she still turned her head and said: "If you are sure that you can cure Mr. Laite, consider it as a favor that I owe you.
!”
[Trigger mission—Teresa’s request 2!]
【Accept?】
…
Coming.
Cheng Shen silently thought to himself.
He just tried it, but he didn't expect it to work...
Cheng Shen looked at Teresa and was wondering, how important is this person to get such attention from the system?!
If a request from an "NPC" alone can trigger a task.
So at this moment, Laite has already begged him, and Cheng Shen has not received the mission prompt.
This conjecture is obviously untenable.
As soon as Theresa opened her mouth, he immediately received the task, which undoubtedly showed that her identity was quite special.
Or rather.
The god behind her is very valued by the system.
The system has been updated.
As expected, this side mission has a generous experience reward of 200,000, as well as Theresa's favor and a favor from her.
Favor?
How come this thing has ready-made mission rewards?
Cheng Shen was thoughtful and said: "Since it is Mother Teresa who speaks..."
The rewards that are presented to you for free will not be earned unless you earn them.
He suddenly looked at the remaining man and the woman in the yellow dress in the church, "Do you have any illnesses that need treatment? Since we have met, it is fate. I think Mother Teresa is also very willing to help!"
He cast his burning gaze on Teresa, now it was her turn to be confused about the situation.
She was very confused but answered professionally: "The Lord teaches us that we should learn to be kind."
"The debt for treating your illnesses can be placed on the church!"
Cheng Shen explained to her very enthusiastically.
"I, I..." After hearing this, Teresa realized what promise she had made unintentionally. She opened her mouth but didn't say a word. Otherwise, what should she say now? Deny what she just promised.
matter?
How can God’s spokesperson be so fickle?
but,
How should I repay this debt...
Teresa, who had inexplicably incurred three debts, was filled with confusion.
To be continued...
