When the good news spread to other dungeons, businessman Anthony came to Lu Li and brought back the news that Andrea and the others had returned with ten banyan tree guards.
These ten banyan tree guards will not only protect the dungeon, they will also serve as the eyes of the Swamp Mother, guarding the Weiner Dungeon together with the twisted figure.
In addition to bringing in banyan tree guards, the Swamp Mother drove the zombie banyan trees in Shadow Swamp to station at the edge of the swamp, allowing them to form a defense line to guard the Allen Peninsula.
Although even the land of light does not entirely belong to them.
The banyan tree guards entered the dungeon through the new entrance dug by the worms, and were temporarily stationed at the entrances of the three existing dungeons.
Andrea set sail again. The excavation of the dungeon was still in progress. Lu Li and the others fell into a kind of waiting.
On the third day, the twisted figure told Lu Li that the preparations for the traceability ceremony were complete.
They can uncover the evil god hiding in the shadows.
…
Solena is planning her escape.
Her caution was exaggerated to the point of persecution. She only guessed the conspiracy against her from the fact that the people around her were always migrating and they seemed to be left here without anyone paying attention.
Her many attempts to leave and their failure without exception confirmed her suspicion.
She had already prayed to the gods that she had been exposed, but she had not received a reply.
Now, her roommates are being called out one by one... She can even guess who is doing this. Apart from the kind, just, respectable, and glorious exorcist, who else would care about the residents?
life?
It's a pity that he came too late...
It's a pity that I am not the "life" he cares about...
Soon, only Solena and the bundle in her hand were left in the room...
She imagined those slimy pagans rushing in, or Lu Li entering the room with disappointment and questioning her. But none of them appeared, only the pain that gradually emerged as time went by.
The soul and blood seemed to be pulled away, just like the soul was stripped from the body. The huge pain enveloped Solena. The gap between reality and illusion born of pain made her seem to hear the murmuring prayers of countless believers.
Gradually, something appeared in the room where there was only Solena and her screams of pain. Some kind of obscure and depressing breath was drawn out from Solena's twisted body in the form of threads, changing into specious forms.
, will condense and float in a certain direction.
But the aura of the evil god that was taken away suddenly made a hissing sound like a poisonous snake, like the smoke rising from a pipe that suddenly dissipated.
The screaming Solena also dropped her body at this moment
After the disaster, she had no time to pay attention to the opened door, and collapsed on the ground, as if the exaggerated sweat that had drained her body was gathering under her body.
"The evil god gave up on her behind the scenes..." The twisted figure stopped beside her.
Lu Li quietly stared at Solena, who had pale cheeks, messy yellow hair, and was panting violently. The twisted figure bent down to pick up the bundle, and pulled out the arm that Solena was still holding on to.
"Your Lord has abandoned you," He said.
Solena refused to let go, but she didn't have much strength left. Before she could do anything in her twisted figure, her hand had already fallen off due to gravity.
The twisted figure opens the package.
Wrapped in faded and patched clothes, there is a petite skull that can be held in the palm of your hand. It should belong to a girl or a young child.
“Is that her church vessel?”
The whisper of the Swamp Mother sounded in my mind.
"There is no aura of the evil god..." the twisted figure replied.
"...That's my sister."
Exhausted, Solena murmured breathlessly: "The Lord... He said he could resurrect my sister."
It's another trick used by evil gods to lure human beings into depravity through resurrection.
But death is indeed the eternal destiny that everyone wants to escape but cannot escape.
The Twisted Cultists cancel the retrospective ritual and leave the surroundings of the room.
Solena was supposed to be executed for her betrayal of humanity, but the twisted figure stopped her. He believed that Solena had the potential that a believer should have.
Although the status quo of the church is distorted without preaching.
…
"Can you bring my sister back to life..."
A few hours later, on the eve of the transformation ceremony, Solena asked guiltily.
She had no objection to any punishment for betraying humanity, but she was not hanged or burned to death. She was grateful to Lu Li and the Twisted Shadow, and she was also glad that she did not really bring trouble to the dungeon.
The aura of the evil god in the bodies of the thirty-five infected residents has withered away. To prevent accidents, the twisted figure transformed the eight willing people into believers, confirming that the evil god had indeed given up its involvement.
This is strange, but a good thing.
"What's her name?" Lu Li asked.
"Milin."
"That's very straightforward, but we haven't found a way to resurrect the dead yet." Lu Li answered Solena, who was holding on to the baggage.
"Then please...can you let me see her? I know this is very inappropriate and I am not qualified...but please, I am willing to pay any price, as long as I can see her, summon spirits, channel spirits..."
Lu Li's black eyes were frozen at this moment.
"Ask Mateus...if there is a psychic in the dungeon."
…
"I thought no one would come to me to channel me until I die..."
The psychic wrapped in a blanket chuckled.
"But I didn't expect it to be The Exorcist..."
She looks older than expected, and seems to be older than David Godoy, the former uncrowned mayor; the dark and gloomy cave where she lives fits people's imagination of a psychic.
However, the aging of the psychic is only a negative effect caused by the spirit summoning, and the darkness is just because there is no more reliable light source than fluorite in the dungeon, and most people can only get fluorite fragments that are as big as a fist when gathered together.
The roommates were taken away from the cave, and she took out a piece of colorful silk cloth and a rough hemp rope set from the wooden box under the bed. The silk cloth blanket was spread on the ground, and she moved her aging body to sit on it.
"What do I need to do?" Solena said hesitantly.
"Tell me who it is and its name."
"Milin, my sister."
"Give me a psychic object. The deeper the relationship with it, the better."
Solena opened the bag and revealed the petite skull protected in the tattered clothes.
"Skeleton? It is indeed the most suitable psychic object..."
The psychic puts the rope around the neck and tightens it so that the rough hemp rope touches the skin.
"Who are you from The Exorcist?"
"...It's nothing, even before..." Solena lowered her head.
"Don't be nervous, this has nothing to do with psychics, it's just my curiosity."
The psychic held up his skull, like an old witch, and closed his gray eyes.
"Please keep quiet next time..."
Gradually, it seemed as if a breeze was blowing in, lingering around the people in the cave.
The distorted figure seems to be seeing something, and the line of sight is following the invisible object.
"A strange shape...a world formed by fire and heat...I'm looking for Milin...it's her...Hello..."
