On the other side, Robert, who was once again hit by Father Cali's screams, was fortunate that the two members of the patrol team who were dealing with him were also affected.
He didn't know what happened to his lover, and he couldn't confirm it. He endured the swelling of his head and the pain of his eardrums, jumped up, and threw himself in front of the altar.
puff!
Ruiya's arrow hit the pile of clothes, but the destination Robert chose this time was not there, and it deviated quite a bit.
After falling to the ground, he continued to roll and hid behind the altar.
Ruiya drew the bowstring again, but did not release the arrow immediately.
This is because Robert's body is completely blocked by the altar, and she cannot aim at all. Secondly, as a devout believer in the "Eternal Blazing Sun", it is impossible for her to use "Rage Blow". With the special nature of the hunting bow, she can directly shoot
The altar was shot down.
Seeing this scene, Camus, who thought that the power of the revolver could not help him, jumped over the broken stained glass window, seized the opportunity, and ran towards the altar.
After a brief hesitation, Ruiya raised her hunting bow and shot an arrow wrapped with lightning into the air.
The arrow was thrown high, then fell quickly, just past the obstacle of the altar, and fell to the rear.
Unable to aim, it rubbed Robert's body and hit the gap between the two stone slabs. The electric current spread out and crawled onto Robert's body, paralyzing him briefly.
After getting rid of this state, Robert gave up the idea of going around to his clothes and taking out the psychic materials, and he no longer planned to save his lover, Father Cali.
He was ready to bite the tip of his tongue again, complete the "channeling", and use the special ability of the natural spirit just now to escape back to his own plantation, where there were still many spiritual materials in reserve.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Camus's light-colored trousers and leather shoes with holes, and he felt like a whip made of wires of electric current appeared in his mind.
The whip struck directly on his soul.
Extreme numbness and pain surged at the same time. Robert, who was squatting behind the altar, had weak knees and fell down, trembling.
"Whip of Pain"!
"The Inquisitor's" "Whip of Pain"!
Camus rushed to Robert's side in two steps, leaned down, and punched his left fist with some personal grudge.
Bang!
Camus, who was proficient in interrogation techniques, made Robert feel the pain without exceeding the limit, and then fainted, but did not suffer any substantial harm.
After taking control of Robert, Camus glanced at the naked man, picked up some clothes nearby, and helped cover his private parts.
He immediately picked up Robert and returned to the area where Lumian and others were.
By this time, Lugano had picked out the bullet that struck Amandine's shoulder and allowed the wound to shrink and heal.
…………
Father Cali still dreamed of the interior scene of St. Sean's Church.
Wearing a robe with a white background and gold thread, he knelt in front of the altar and kept whispering with a painful expression, as if he was repenting.
Amandine, who was wearing a black hunting suit, walked from the aisle between the two rows of seats to Father Cali's side. Remembering Louis Berry's instructions, she asked:
"What did this particular dream come from?"
Father Cali raised his head and replied with a rather distorted face:
"That, that strange tomb."
"Tomb?" Amandine suspected that she had participated in a fake "Dream Festival" before.
Where is the tomb?
Huo Ran, she had a flash of inspiration:
"That big, black stone?"
Is that actually a tomb?
Father Cali nodded:
"right."
It really is a tomb... Amandine felt a strong curiosity in her heart and asked proactively:
"Whose tomb is that? Why is it so special?"
Father Cali was still kneeling in front of the altar and shook his head:
"I have no idea.
"Even the tomb guards don't know. They only know that their mission is to guard that strange ancient tomb."
"Gravekeeper? Who is the gravekeeper?" The more Amandine asked, the more she felt that she didn't know much about the "Dream Festival".
Father Cali raised his head, looked at Amandine and said:
"The elders of the tribe in the jungle."
"I see..." Amandine's mind was filled with all kinds of questions. She picked one and said, "You took Robert to sleep in Tehuanaco's house so that he could stay awake, and then took him
Go to that ancient tomb and gain extraordinary power?"
"Yes." Father Cali buried his head, facing the altar, and said in a painful voice, "I am guilty."
Pretty much what I thought... Amandine further asked:
"How do you know that you can get extraordinary power by going there, and how do you stay awake? You have only been in Tizamo Town for more than five years, and I grew up here."
The blood vessels in Father Cali's neck bulged out:
"Tewanaku, Tewanaku, bewitched me."
"He seduced you with his body?" Amandine suddenly felt a little excited.
Father Cali was stunned for a moment:
“He saw my desire for status and recognition, gradually demonstrated my abilities, and told me that there was a way for me to gain strength quickly and easily, and with strong strength, I could do more things for the church.
, get more rewards and recognition...
"That devil!"
"So you were bewitched?" Amandine asked slightly disappointed.
Father Cali nodded slowly:
"Yes, Tewanaku needs someone to help him notice the changes in his dreams and host the 'Dream Festival' after he leaves Tizamo Town. He first asked me to sleep in his house, and after the 'Dream Festival',
He took me to that strange ancient tomb again."
"Did you also gain extraordinary power by touching that tomb?" Amandine asked casually.
Father Cali shook his head again:
"No, Tewanaku opened a gap in the tomb and let me put my hand in..."
"What did you touch?" Seeing Father Cali pause, Amandine couldn't help but urge.
"I touched a hand, a cold and temperatureless hand, and then I fainted. When I woke up, I had extraordinary power. I did this three more times during the next three 'Dream Festivals', and finally became
The 'ghost'." Father Cali recalled the original situation, with an uncontrollable look of fear on his face.
This is not only the fear of that cold hand, but also the fear of gaining extraordinary power so easily and simply.
"The hand of the corpse in the tomb?" Armandine quickly went over what Father Cali just said and thought of a question, "Didn't you say there was a tombkeeper? Why did Robert and I go there?
At that time, there were no obstacles?”
Father Cali's voice deepened:
"People who have lived in Tizamo Town for a long time will have a projection formed by suppressed emotions and desires in this special dream. They are usually hidden in the chaotic zone at the edge of the dream brought by that tomb, and the guardian
Tomb dwellers worship the ancient tomb together to protect it from others.
"When the 'Dream Festival' begins, these projections will return to their original bodies and form complete 'Dream Festival' participants who no longer suppress their own emotions and desires, while those gravekeepers don't know where they have gone."
Strange... Amandine was very confused about the whereabouts of the tomb guards.
She was a little worried because of this.
After thinking for a moment, Amandine asked with concern:
"Do I have projections of emotions and desires in this dream?"
Father Cali shook his head:
"No.
"You don't spend enough time in Tizamo Town every year. Even if the person who originally formed a dream projection, as long as he leaves here long enough and no longer suppresses himself beyond the limit, the corresponding projection will slowly fade away until it disappears.
"For those who can stay awake in this dream, the corresponding projection will gradually fade after a period of time.
"But this kind of wakefulness is not absolute wakefulness. After the 'Dream Festival' begins, everyone will have a tendency to express their emotions and desires. The same is true for people who can stay awake, but they will not be as thorough as those who have integrated their dream selves.
When you lose the ability to control yourself, you can control it almost as well as in the normal state, only showing it in some details."
Amandine recalled her performance in the two "Dream Festivals" and showed an expression of sudden realization.
She originally thought that because this place was a dream, and as long as there were no dead people, it was just a game, so she acted more selfish and wanton than reality, but she didn't expect that this would have the impact of the "Dream Festival".
Fortunately, I have always had the ability to control myself... Amandine had almost asked Louis Berry about the things he had explained, and the rest were all things that Father Cali himself didn't know, so he changed the topic:
"You have become a resentful spirit, yet you still dare to preach and hold mass...
"Are you really not worried that God will notice you, send down his wrath, and purify you into ashes?"
In the Southern Continent, Amandine and many other gentlemen and ladies in Trier knew what kind of power the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun had and had no doubts about the existence of gods.
Moreover, for more than a year, she has also been working hard to collect occult knowledge from Robert and various channels that she can access. She knows that the "Rose School", the protagonist in various horror rumors, is famous for its many resentful souls, and the resentful souls
What I fear most is the sunlight that comes with purification.
Father Cali sighed and said:
"I originally had such worries, but Tewanaku told me that he had a way to help me hide the power of the 'revengeful soul'. Unless the god himself watches here, it will not be discovered."
"What can be done?" Amandine asked curiously.
Father Cali answered truthfully:
"After the hand that touches the corpse in the tomb has gained extraordinary strength, don't leave in a hurry. Then touch the tomb itself, that is, the black boulder.
"This will hide all the extraordinary power in me, and the effect will last for more than a year."
Can it still be like this? What will happen if I touch the black boulder and then touch the hand of the corpse? Amandine thought for a moment and asked a question that she was very concerned about:
"How did you seduce Robert?
"Why did he become your lover?"
Amandine looked up and down, left and right, but she didn't think there was anything about Father Cali that attracted Robert, except for his strength.
Is love really blind?
Father Cali was silent for a moment and said:
"I aroused his desires and destroyed his self-control."
"You haven't shown any ability in this area..." Amandine didn't notice who Father Cali inspired.
Father Cali's voice was once again filled with pain:
"I'm guilty. I'm praying to the devil Tewanaku said..."
Before Father Cali finished speaking, the entire dream suddenly shook and collapsed inch by inch.
