Chapter 468: Sacred Scripture of Life (please vote for the big chapter)
When He Ao's face emerged from the darkness little by little, a slightly frightened expression slowly appeared on Zaidi's face.
He is just a D-class, and when faced one-on-one with a C-class like He Ao who is so tyrannical that he can kill five strengthening potion users, he has no ability to resist at all.
He suppressed the panic in his heart, took half a step back, and asked cautiously, "When did you come here?"
"I always,"
He Ao still had a calm and natural smile on his face.
The next second, a calm voice sounded behind Zaidi, "Behind you."
Zaidi felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up one by one, and the cold air rushed down his back to the sky.
In front of him, He Ao's figure had long disappeared.
He turned his head slightly and looked behind him, and He Ao's smiling and calm cheek gradually appeared in his field of vision.
If He Ao had just tried to kill him, he would have been powerless to fight back.
Without hesitation, he activated the syringe on his arm, and the powerful medicine flowed into his body along the bloodstream in an instant.
A faint red glow spread along his body.
He Ao glanced at the syringe in his hand, took two steps back, and quietly stared at the faint light covering his body.
This was the first time he had seen the process of using strengthening potions.
He mobilized his consciousness and looked at Zaidi's body, only to see a powerful red energy flowing down Zaidi's arms to his whole body.
This energy is extremely violent, as if it will destroy everything it encounters, but a certain substance inside it binds its violence like a rein, allowing it to flow smoothly through the lines in the body, and the energy it emits begins to continuously transform.
Zaidi's flesh and blood.
The muscles on his body swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye, breaking his shirt. Thin blood vessels crisscrossed on the bulging skin, making his entire body appear a strange bright red.
His height increased rapidly, and he soon grew into a giant of more than three meters, and his eyes were filled with violent blood red.
All these changes were very slow in He Ao's eyes. He could even observe the details of Zaidi's physical changes, but the actual time spent was very little.
In just one or two seconds, Zaidi expanded from a well-proportioned man to a giant of over three meters.
He was bigger than the captain of the team that came to hunt down He Ao before.
"It seems that you are very arrogant," Zaidi sneered. His voice was like a loud bell, which made people's ears go numb. "When the potion took effect just now, it was the best time for you to kill me. Now you no longer have this chance.
"
The huge strength filling his body supported his confidence. He had not used these strengthening medicines before because he was worried about the side effects.
After having to use it today, he felt that his condition was better than ever before. This feeling of gaining great power and having everything under control was fascinating.
He Ao looked at Zaidi's blood-red eyes. This guy had gradually begun to be controlled by the power in the strengthening potion. He smiled and said slowly,
"Actually, I have always been a law-abiding person. As long as you..."
"Go to hell and obey the law!"
Zaidi laughed loudly and grabbed He Ao with two huge palms.
He Ao, who was interrupted, shook his head slightly. He raised the dagger in his hand, made a sword dance, then raised the sword forward and stabbed Zaidi's thigh, which was where Zaidi's energy converged.
He performed these movements in an orderly manner, and it seemed as if a long time had passed, but in fact the movements were surprisingly fast.
At such a close distance, the sword light pierced forward like running water, easily piercing Zaidi's skin that looked as solid as steel, piercing his muscles, and sinking into his entire leg.
Silky and smooth.
The whole process is like following the path of the wind, integrating with nature.
"how come···"
Zaidi's hands froze when he waved them down, and his body became as stiff as a stone statue. The power that originally supported his huge body was released at this moment and its violent nature was rampant in his body.
This easy blow became his final finale.
boom--
The blood and flesh all over the sky turned into a curtain of rain.
The silver sword light was retracted from the rain curtain, streaking through the sky with a glorious trajectory, and was collected into the interlayer of He Ao's clothes.
Dim yellow street lights illuminated everything.
In this silent night, terror and beauty merge into one.
He Ao knelt down, picked up the long black piece of equipment that had fallen on the ground, and gently swung the blood-red residue off the equipment.
This should be an advanced external storage device, which probably has its own computing core inside, which is not even worse than many computers.
Then he walked to the other side and picked up a large fragment of clothing. There were seven test tube bags on the fragment, which contained six red liquids.
Strengthening potions.
This test tube bag seems to have been specially strengthened and has very good toughness, so it was not directly blown into tiny pieces like other clothes.
He Ao put away these two things and moved forward slowly until the dark night completely engulfed his figure.
——
"dad!"
The moment He Ao opened the door, a large figure rushed forward.
"Okay," He Ao stretched out his hand and rubbed the little head of Aini who was hugging him, "Dad is very dirty, let him clean it up."
"oh."
Aini hugged her carefully for a while before letting go.
"Did anything good happen today? Or do you want something?" He Ao smiled and put away his clothes, "The last time you hugged daddy so enthusiastically, you were only this tall."
He Ao checked the position slightly higher than his knees.
"No way," Aini's face turned red, "I just want to hug you."
"The little girl has grown up and is now shy. Dad will take a bath first."
He Ao smiled and rubbed his daughter's head again, then walked into the back room.
The sound of running water came from the master bedroom bathroom.
"Your dad is back?"
The door to the second bedroom opened and Roger raised his head and glanced at Aine.
"Um."
Aini nodded.
"Have you finished your homework?"
Roger asked casually.
Aini has a big head.
She quickly ran to her small bedroom, "I'll write right away."
······
Ten minutes later, He Ao took a shower, changed clothes, and walked out of the back room with his previous coat.
"How was the harvest?"
Roger sat on the sofa and looked at him.
"good."
He Ao dropped his coat with numerous test tubes on the coffee table.
He lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth. "Six C-level strengthening potions, thirteen D-level strengthening potions, and nineteen life potions."
Then he took out a long black electronic device from his pocket and threw it on the coffee table, "along with all the information of the institute."
Although the device Zaidi brought had security verification, it was far inferior to the supercomputer. It had been cracked by Eve when He Ao came back, but He Ao had not read the contents yet.
"It seems you have quite a lot of 'trophies' this time,"
Roger opened his clothes and took out a C-level strengthening potion from inside, "Is this the potion you mentioned that can directly strengthen ordinary people or low-level extraordinary beings into C-level ones?"
He pulled out the cork of the potion and fanned it in front of the test tube. "It smells like wild animals, which is interesting."
"To be precise, this is the physical evidence I found in the process of my bravery to investigate evil forces,"
He Ao held a cigarette in his mouth and looked at Roger with a smile, "Can you figure out how to make this strengthening potion?"
"It's difficult," Roger shook his head. "This kind of special extraordinary potion usually has a strict mixing sequence and proportion. It's difficult to restore the formula with just one finished product. However, I can try to study its ingredients.
Is this useful to you?"
"Maybe I can use it if I have a chance," He Ao said noncommittally, "Finding out what this thing is can help me avoid some risks."
"This kind of thing that forcibly enhances strength usually has extremely serious side effects," Roger stared at the red liquid in the test tube, thoughtfully.
"I'll try my best to analyze it for you. I'm also curious about how Qunxing Pharmaceutical does it."
"Thank you then."
He Ao smiled.
"By the way," Roger seemed to have remembered something, and took out a micro-storage device from his pocket and threw it in front of He Ao, "I finally got the full version of the "Sacred Book of Life" you want from my senior brother.
Come."
"You just showed me the Holy Scriptures of the Goddess of Life Church?"
He Ao held a cigarette in his mouth, bowed down, and picked up the storage device. The reason why he asked Roger to help him find the Bible of Life was because the series of properties displayed by the Fountain of Youth were too closely related to 'life'.
Stronger.
All content related to the goddess of life is recorded in this holy book and cannot be reproduced.
"The "Sacred Scripture of Life" is not that good-looking." Roger put the strengthening potion in his hand back on the table and looked at He Ao, "I remember I told you that to read the Sacred Scripture of Life, you must become a church member.
core believers.”
"Can someone like me, who is not a doctor, still become a core believer of the Goddess of Life?"
He Ao asked casually. At this time, he had already attached the memory to the bracelet.
The bracelet read out the memory, but there were no files in it, and the folder interface was blank.
"Of course, the goddess of life is the most philanthropic god. She loves all life. It is her vision to fill the world with vitality."
Roger straightened up and said slowly.
At this moment, he no longer looked like a pure doctor, but more like a priest full of holy glory.
He Ao tried to ask Eve to find the hidden files in this storage, but found that it failed. According to Eve's feedback, the storage was blank and did not store any data.
"what do I need to do?"
He Ao raised his head and looked at Roger.
"You only need to close your eyes and accept my baptism. After that, you will be marked with the mark of the goddess and become wherever He looks," Roger looked at He Ao,
"Are you sure you are ready? Joining a church and becoming its core member means that you must abide by the church's precepts, expose yourself to the gaze of gods, and cannot change your beliefs at will like ordinary believers.
"Although the goddess of life is a relatively gentle god, according to the laws of the supernatural world, as long as you have a connection with a god, your intersection with him will continue to deepen until you are completely involved in the vortex related to the god."
"One question," He Ao looked at Roger, "Why did you join the Church of the Goddess of Life in the first place?"
"Except for the major medical foundations, only the Church of the Goddess of Life has the 'truth' about life, and extraordinary people in the 'doctor' path will basically have contact with the Goddess of Life in the end. I just put this process into perspective.
It’s just ahead of schedule.”
Roger said calmly.
What he meant behind his words was very clear. He was a 'doctor' and had to take this path. However, He Ao was not an extraordinary person in the relevant path, so he did not have to make this choice.
"Then, will all evil...all gods mark their believers or priests?"
He Ao asked softly.
"Yes," Roger nodded,
"But only core believers and priests have it. The connection between priests and gods is deeper than core believers. This kind of mark can help gods quickly locate believers. If believers act apostasy, there may even be divine punishment.
.
"However, this kind of 'mark' is not always effective. It seems that gods cannot completely rely on marks to locate believers. Many people who have betrayed the church and joined other churches can still live normally and have not suffered divine punishment."
He said slowly, "Maybe this is the mercy of the gods."
"It may also be that these gods simply feel that it is not cost-effective to kill this believer with divine punishment."
He Ao shrugged and answered casually.
As a person who has many good friends and has personally experienced divine punishment several times, he still has some profound insights into divine punishment.
The consumption of divine punishment is not low, and there is no surplus food in the evil god’s house.
So the God of Knowledge has a good relationship with He Ao, and even at his own expense, he would come down and project himself to see He Ao.
Roger:······
Although He Ao's speech is a bit blasphemous, it makes sense.
"Ahem," Roger coughed and did not continue the topic, but asked softly, "Are you sure you are ready?"
"I'm ready."
He Ao nodded solemnly.
He used to be a priest of the God of Knowledge. If this mark is really useful, every time he opens a new copy, he will definitely feel the cordial greetings from his good friends within five seconds.
He didn't know if this mark was useful to other people, but it was useless to him anyway. When the next instance started, he would have a completely new identity.
"You didn't have any other beliefs before, right?"
Roger looked at He Ao and suddenly asked.
He Ao looked at his eyes and suddenly remembered his identity as 'K'.
Roger seems to regard 'K' as a secret society-like organization. This kind of organization usually has a high-ranking being who believes in it, or it can be said that the organization exists because of a certain high-ranking being.
But in fact ‘K’ has no object of belief, because so far all ‘K’s are He Ao himself.
If ‘K’ really has faith, he is the one who believes in it.
He Ao shook his head, "No."
Roger glanced at He Ao with a slightly strange look, but he did not ask any more questions, but said softly, "Put your hand on the "Sacred Scripture of Life" and close your eyes."
He Ao glanced at the storage device in his hand, slowly held it, then looked at Roger, and slowly closed his eyes.
In the darkness, he felt a finger touching his forehead.
"The brilliance of life favors you. From now on, we are compatriots under the gaze of the goddess. The past has been cut off from now on. Only the service and pursuit of life will never stop."
Roger's voice seemed far away, like a vast singing voice that enveloped He Ao's ears.
At the same time, a little warm power entered He Ao's body along the center of his eyebrows.
The moment this power entered his body, He Ao felt that all the fatigue he had accumulated since today's battle was wiped away, and his body felt more comfortable than ever before.
This power seems to be the most normal power of a god that He Ao has ever experienced.
And after this comfort, there are gentle murmurs like a mother's sleeping hands.
These murmurs made He Ao wake up from that intoxicating comfort in an instant.
······
This goddess of life is normal, but it seems that she is not completely normal.
Roger removed his fingers from He Ao's eyebrows.
"it's over?"
Heao opened his eyes.
Originally, "Night Walker" had a babble, but after the baptism, he had another babble from the goddess of life in his mind. If the background noise of super memory is included, a band was almost formed in his mind.
At the same time, he felt that he seemed to have established a connection with a great existence outside the endless time and space.
This connection is so weak that it cannot transmit any information. Its only function seems to be to tell both parties that you have a 'connection'.
"it's over."
Roger held his head and said, "I didn't expect that 'baptism' consumes so much mental energy. It is equivalent to constructing a ceremony."
"Is this your first time baptizing someone?"
He Ao asked with a little curiosity.
"I am an experienced priest of the goddess of life."
Roger straightened up.
He Ao glanced at him suspiciously, then picked up the storage device in his hand and sucked it on the bracelet.
This time, something magical happened. A book icon appeared in the originally blank folder.
The cover of the book is a giant prosperous tree. He Ao can feel the vibrant atmosphere of this book through the screen.
He did not click on the book, but asked Eve to check it again first.
As a result, there is still no data in the memory.
He Ao was stunned for a moment, then clicked on the book, and the pages of "Sacred Scripture of Life" slowly unfolded.
Is this 'Sacred Book of Life' really in the storage?
A question emerged in He Ao's mind.
He turned on his super memory and checked it with his spiritual consciousness, and it seemed that his soul was not 'polluted' in any way.
Is this the power of gods?
Can electronic devices also intervene?
After thinking for a moment, He Ao opened the home page of the Bible of Life. Then he glanced at Roger beside him and asked casually, "Have you read this book?"
"These are all made-up stories to deceive people. They are not medical knowledge. Why should I read them?"
"Aren't you a priest of the goddess of life?"
"Who is a serious priest who reads the holy scriptures? Isn't it enough to hold this thing in your hand just to show off? And isn't the main task of a priest to attract believers to the church?"
"So how many believers have you gained?"
"The words now...one."
"...If you say this, are you really not afraid of the goddess of life being angry?"
"Don't worry, the goddess of life is different from other gods. She has a good temper..."
boom--
There was a loud thunder in the sky. Roger who was talking paused and stopped talking. He shrank his neck and chuckled, "So why are you reading the holy book? Although it is said to be descended by the goddess of life.
Oracle, but most of the content was made up by the later church itself..."
Having said this, he looked up at the sky and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that nothing happened.
"I'm looking for some," Ho turned to the next page, "possibly lost history."
