Chapter 142 142·Cleaning up
Rays of holy light flowed like light liquid over the still moving pieces of flesh on the ground.
When the holy light flowed through, the piece of meat immediately stopped moving, and a younger priest slowly stretched out his hand toward the piece of meat.
Just when his hand was about to touch him, a priest suddenly rushed over and held him firmly.
"I...I want to see if the things on the ground have been completely purified...I...I didn't mean it!"
The restrained priest reacted like a child who had done something wrong and was waiting for an adult to scold him, eager to explain.
"Are you crazy?
Be serious, don't lose your mind so easily!"
The priest shouted loudly and sighed heavily.
What just happened attracted the attention of the people around them. They looked at them one after another, and then they all lowered their heads to deal with the work at hand.
And the piece of meat that was originally quiet and motionless in front of them suddenly became active again. Although it was not as active as before, if you reach out and touch the 'living' piece of meat, something terrible will happen.
"Someone had an accident again, a soldier from the Fatan Army!"
Hearing someone next to him say something, the priest immediately pulled the young priest to the place where the accident happened, so that he could see the long memory with his own eyes.
"Someone else can help!"
A circle of church priests had gathered there, but there were still not enough manpower, so they immediately rushed over to help.
The person next to me said: "Release purification and healing!"
Inside was a huge piece of meat, even mixed with some broken bones, but what was even more frightening was that a soldier from the Fatan Army accidentally touched the piece of meat, and then his whole body fused with the piece of meat.
At this moment, the Fatan soldier looked at the surrounding priests with a demanding look. He begged the priests with his eyes not to give up on him.
But he couldn't speak at this time, because his tongue was on the other side of the meat, and several fingers ran to the top of his head.
Other parts of the body, limbs, and organs are spread over other areas of the flesh.
He was completely dismembered, and at the same time his body was fused with the piece of flesh.
Even so, the soldier was not dead yet, perhaps the piece of meat also brought vitality to the soldier.
Two more people joined in, which did not make the people around them relaxed. The eyes on that person's face began to move and appeared in places where they should not have existed.
He opened his mouth wide, and his teeth began to wiggle, and then they were like white bugs, crawling around on the meat.
The priests' nerves were already tense. After seeing this scene, some young priests couldn't hold on any longer and vomited right next to them.
Purification and healing did not save the soldier's life.
After several priests stopped releasing the holy magic, they had no way to continue to control the stability of the meat.
They saw that the brains inside the head were drilling out along the other's mouth and nose, and finally stuck tightly to the flesh.
In the end, the priests in the surrounding circle stopped releasing the holy magic and gave up. Anyone who touched the flesh would have to cut off part of the body in time before the situation was not particularly serious.
Otherwise, it will end up alive and fused with the meat.
At the moment, it is in an administrative office building of the zoo, which has been cleared away for the priests to use as a command center.
Priests and high-ranking military officials were constantly coming in and out here, but the innermost office, a huge square table that was joined together, was filled with a circle of priests.
They are all bishops, headed by a cardinal named ‘Martin’.
"There are many things we have to do here, but the first thing is to dispose of Liplett's body.
According to the text message sent by the Pope's Chamberlain, Liplett almost became a god.
Even the execution team sent out by the Holy See suffered heavy losses.
If we have to define the top priority for us."
Bishop Martin took a deep look at everyone, and then said in a serious tone: "We are dealing with the body of the demigod at this time."
For a moment, the sound of the priests praying fell silent throughout the room.
The canons of the Holy Bishops do not allow them to recognize any god other than the Holy Lord.
The Holy Lord is their only god.
What Bishop Martin said just now is the most serious blasphemy in their eyes, especially when the other person is a cardinal who has successfully embarked on the holy road.
A cardinal sitting next to Bishop Martin slapped the table with dissatisfaction: "What are you talking about?
You are blaspheming!"
Bishop Martin looked calmly at the people who were very excited after praying.
The person with the lowest status sitting here is also a bishop, and there are more than a dozen cardinals here.
However, the reason why they did not join the executive team in the first place was because they did not step into the holy way on the day the Pope concluded the High Mass.
But they also succeeded in the next period of time.
He reached out and took out a simple stapled book from inside his divine robe.
Then he ignored the accusations from the cardinal next to him, turned over one of the pages devoutly, and read it aloud.
"Our religion has always recognized the Holy Lord as the only God in the world, because the Holy Lord, as the Creator, already rules over everything.
Above God…
The evil gods believed in by other religions are just a class proof of their strength.
The Holy Lord is our Lord, God is God, God itself does not possess holiness or divinity, it is just a term of title!”
"What do you mean?"
“Haven’t you seen the new version of the Bible?
You may not be proficient in reading, but this content was written by His Majesty in the new version of the Bible."
Bishop Martin raised the book respectfully with both hands: "The original manuscript of the new version of the Bible, His Majesty the Pope's manuscript is here."
"Praise the Holy Lord, praise His Majesty the Holy Son!"
There was a lot of praise in the room.
"Your Majesty has already defined gods. There is no need to argue about this now. Our first priority is to complete the work of cleaning up the corpses of demigods."
"Why is this sacred object here with you?
Didn’t Father Jose take him back to the Holy See when he left?”
This sacred object played an important role in Father Jose's ability to eliminate Liplett, who was about to become a god.
"Neil's head has also been left behind. This is His Majesty's wish. It will be very troublesome to clean up the demigod's body. With these two sacred objects here, we can help us solve possible accidents."
Everyone calmed down and looked at Bishop Martin.
He placed the papal manuscript respectfully on the table in front of him, and then said: "As long as the demigod's body is not cleaned up for one day, this city will remain under seal.
In just this short period of time, many accidents occurred while cleaning the flesh and blood of the demigods.
We even lost some people, including priests and some people from the Fatan military.
A detailed report will be issued as soon as possible tonight and reported to His Majesty."
Everyone looked at Bishop Martin, who continued: "The pieces of meat outside are basically everywhere now, according to Father Jose's explanation before leaving.
When the demigod died, the shadow of condensed flesh and blood began to disintegrate, and the blood clots and bones inside scattered around.
The farthest locations are close to the suburbs.”
He continued: "The difficulty of cleaning meat can be rated into three levels: ordinary meat, meat mixed with some bones, and a pure piece of bone.
Among them, the bones are the most difficult to clean.”
"The most important thing is not to touch these pieces of meat unless they have been thoroughly purified.
Otherwise, even if you touch it with a wooden stick or other tools, it won't work."
The equipment available on site is limited, and the Fatan military's transportation is only used to transport people and priests, as well as some cleaned meat.
Things like projection equipment will not be on the delivery list for a short period of time.
Bishop Martin could only talk and gesture.
"When an ordinary piece of meat is touched, people will immediately feel extremely hot and cold temperatures, just like being thrown directly into liquid nitrogen or lava.
In addition, it will be corroded by strong acid.
The body will gradually begin to melt, but as long as it is evacuated early and purified and healed, one's life can still be saved."
"But the meat mixed with some bones is different. If you accidentally touch it, the person's body will be sucked in immediately.
Then all parts of the body will move around on the piece of meat and finally merge into one.
There is no way for people to die, they can only consciously endure pain that is more terrible than that of a corpse."
Bishop Martin took a deep breath and said, "I just saw a Fatan soldier touch a piece of boned meat.
His arm was directly sucked up.
To be continued...
