"Why don't the priests of the Temple of Insai judge such villains?"
Someone threw rocks into Leicester's home, smashing the windows.
The rolling stone came to Leicester's feet.
Lester sat in front of the table, bowing his head in the middle of the pile of books.
He glanced at the stones at his feet and listened to the noise outside.
He pressed his face with both hands.
He took a deep breath and continued writing.
There was a crowd of people outside Lester's house. These were the family members of patients with "living dead" at home, and there were also a small number of onlookers who had heard the news that Lester was conducting evil experiments.
Dozens or hundreds of people roared and cursed outside the door. Fortunately, there were servants blocking the door so they didn't rush in. They dispersed from early morning to night.
That night, the servants bid farewell to Leicester.
These servants did not dare to look up at Lester, because Lester was really nice to them.
But someone still stood up and said after bowing to Lester.
"Mr. Leicester."
"I really can't bear it anymore. It's a bit dangerous here. You'd better move to a safe place."
"Either go to the countryside to escape the limelight for a while and come back after a while."
Lester didn't say anything.
He silently paid his servants their wages and watched them leave.
When the last servant left, he called out to him.
"Do one last thing for me!"
The servant nodded: "No problem, Mr. Leicester."
He said to the last servant to leave.
"I'll move out tomorrow. You can help me hang a sign at the door saying the house is for sale."
Putting on dark clothes, Lester walked down the street with his head lowered.
Now in this cross city, he could only sneak out of the house at night.
On the dark street, he walked towards his medical clinic.
At the intersection in the middle of the city, he suddenly saw gravel lying on the ground.
It's a bit annoying to step on your feet.
He raised his head.
I found that the tall statue that had been erected by the city's civilians in memory of him had been pushed to the ground, half of it had been smashed, and it was beyond recognition.
The other half will probably be smashed tomorrow and then dragged out of the city as scraps.
Lester felt as if his chest was blocked. He was speechless for a long time and just stared blankly.
After a long time, he uttered a sentence.
"it's over."
"My glory is... so short-lived!"
Lester once thought that he would become a figure like Saint Stan Tito in Cross City, but now that he thinks about it, it turns out to be so ridiculous.
Not only was he not remembered by everyone after his death like a saint, but everything he owned had been overthrown while he was still alive.
Lester came to his medical clinic, and everything in the medical clinic was emptied.
There was only one apprentice waiting for him.
The apprentice handed him the key: "Mr. Leicester, I have been waiting for you."
Lester looked at the key: "Then let's disband!"
The door of the medical clinic was closed, and only Lester was left in the empty medical clinic.
Lester sat alone on the ground, hiding himself in the darkness.
The moon gradually rose, and finally there was a little light in the dark corner, but Lester remained motionless.
Until he burst out at dawn.
He took off the white pottery sign from Leicester Medical Clinic and smashed it to pieces on the ground.
"Go for it!"
"Let's all go!"
Lester held his face and straightened up, then bent down deeply.
"I did something wrong, but I saved more people!"
"I have saved thousands of people, I have put countless people out of pain, I have taught my medical skills to one apprentice after another, and I have shared my medical skills with others without reservation."
"Are my achievements fake? All erased by one failure?"
Lester kicked the debris on the ground away and waved his hands furiously.
"Why should I save someone's life? If anything goes wrong, it's all my fault."
"Why."
"Why?"
"It was you who begged me to save people. It was you who begged me to save people in the first place. It was not me who had to save them."
In the end, he could only kneel on the ground and sob.
Everything he owned was lost at this moment.
When Lester returned home, the servant had already left.
A for sale sign was hung at the door of the yard.
It was dawn the next day.
By the time people gathered around, the place seemed deserted.
The door is locked.
Never opened again.
But in fact, Lester locked himself in his room day and night, hiding in his laboratory all day long.
In the laboratory.
As a female corpse emitted light, an illusory and hazy shadow gradually floated from the corpse.
Lester recognized it, he recognized this figure.
The shadow seemed to be saying something to him, but Lester couldn't hear it at all.
He stepped forward excitedly and wanted to hug the other person.
"You're back."
"You are finally back."
The method given to him by the "God of Knowledge" to resurrect the dead is to transform the remaining memories of his wife in his brain into a ghost.
But this isn't the end, it's just the beginning.
He also wants to use the life blood stone to create a new body and stuff his wife's ghost into it.
According to what the god said, he could resurrect his wife.
Lester will touch his wife's ghost with his hands, his palms penetrating the spirit body.
He put down his palm in despair, but his eyes immediately glowed with hope.
"It's just the last step."
"It's just that..."
"The last step."——
The Temple of Insai in Cross City received the oral instructions from the chief priest of the City of Gods, as well as a scroll with cipher text printed on it.
It is written on the scroll that the God of Knowledge is recognized as an evil demon by the Temple of Insai, and no one is allowed to offer sacrifices or believe in him.
The City of God's Advent heard that there was also a belief in the so-called "God of Knowledge" in Cross City, and the City of God's Advent immediately sent people over.
The priest of the temple read the scroll and asked the messenger.
"Did something happen?"
You'll find out once you ask.
A group of believers of the "God of Knowledge" made a big fuss in the south and even used human sacrifices to pray for strength or eternal life.
Moreover, some master craftsmen who received extraordinary talents and skills from the so-called "God of Knowledge" went crazy not long after receiving the gift.
Some of these people killed their own families, while others went crazy and did incomprehensible and crazy things in order to gain further knowledge.
One pile, one piece.
These horrific and bloody events made the priests in the temple tremble with horror. Only the statue of Insai behind them could give them some comfort.
"What?"
"These lunatics."
"What kind of evil is this? Can it turn people into madmen? Or is it in different territories at the same time?"
The priest on duty at the Innsai Temple in Cross City also knew that the problem was not simple, and the first person to investigate was the rumored painter.
immediately.
The soldiers and temple priests in the city mobilized their people and headed south of the city.
"Quick!" The soldier ran on the ground, holding a long gun and shouting towards the back.
"Quick!" Groups of soldiers followed, seemingly dozens of them.
"Boom!" The leading soldier kicked open the door, and the soldiers and priests rushed into the painter's home.
As soon as the door opened, I smelled a strong smell of blood and putrefaction.
There were several corpses piled up in the hall, and the painter was sitting on a high chair with his back to the door.
He held a pen and knife in one hand, and a silver cup filled with red liquid in the other.
A long framed canvas hangs on the wall, and the artist is adding details to it.
But combined with the corpses on the ground, the pottery basin from which the blood was drawn, and the filth everywhere, we can figure out what is in the cup.
he.
He was actually painting with blood.
And some people recognized that these corpses were relatives of the painter.
"Hiss!" Faced with this dark atmosphere and terrifying and strange scene, everyone who broke in couldn't help but take a breath.
"Madman, really madman." Even the priests completely felt why the City of Gods had designated this "God of Knowledge" as an evil spirit.
As the painter painted, his body was twitching and dancing, and his head was shaking from side to side.
Almost crazy.
What a picture he is drawing!
The brush is waved as if depicting the scroll of purgatory.
A huge open door with red lines all over it.
It casts a terrifying shadow, also in a maroon tone.
Behind the door are countless twisted and screaming ghosts, with dark and terrifying faces and mouths wide open, as if they are making an extremely harsh sound, which makes people want to cover their ears just looking at it.
The background of this painting is not the door, but a figure so large that it occupies the entire canvas.
It looks like a twisted figure or a giant tree that grows regularly.
"Ah!" The soldiers present screamed when they saw this painting.
"Bang!" Many people fainted and fell to the ground.
"Ouch!" Some young priests also felt dizzy and kept vomiting after seeing this painting.
Facing the suddenly opened door and all the people who broke in, the painter still made no move.
He only has eyes for the canvas in front of him, constantly perfecting his paintings.
He was mumbling words as if he was in a daze.
"God~"
"God!"
"This is your country, this is your divine domain."
"I will do..."
The priest on duty in the temple roared: "Go and capture him."
The soldiers rushed over and tried to catch the painter.
The painter turned around, and his terrifying eyes scared the soldiers and priests present to stop.
The painter grinned, revealing a terrifying smile.
"Mortals."
"Eternal darkness is coming."
After the painter said this, he stabbed the scraper in his hand into his own eye.
Then open your arms.
He fell off the high chair with a big word and fell to the ground.
The silver cup in his hand made a crisp sound, and the donated blood was scattered on the floor.
He committed suicide.
The priest on duty in the temple looked at the painting and the painter who died in madness, and his hands were shaking unconsciously.
"Evil."
"Evil~" he repeated, this time seven times louder.
"It is indeed the deepest evil, a demon who dares to call himself a god."
He stepped forward to destroy the painting, but found that he had no idea what the painting was made of, and no matter how hard he chopped, he couldn't cut it down.
It was as if an invisible force was blocking him, and a voice told him in his ears.
This is a chapter and scroll depicting a myth, and it is something that cannot be destroyed by mortals.
The priest on duty retreated and quickly covered the painting with a piece of cloth.
"There's something wrong with this thing. Cover it up and take it back."
Later.
The priest not only found various evidences of offerings to the devil in the painter's home, he also found things about Lester.
Someone found out about Lester's visit to him in the painter's notes before he went mad.
in.
Lester and the painter exchanged information about how to worship the God of Knowledge.
"Holy Hand Lester?"
"Is it really him?"
"What kind of holy hand Lester? He must have made some kind of deal with this demon."
"That's right. Otherwise, why would all the patients he treated be rejected by the Kingdom of God?"
The priests of the temple have always had speculations about Lester's sudden power, just because Lester's reputation has not made any progress in the past.
But things are completely different now. Facts have proved that the power of the Holy Hand Lester cannot be called sacred at all.
His strange power probably comes from an evil and crazy existence.
"But Lester disappeared many days ago." A temple priest said.
"I know where Lester is." A soldier in the crowd raised his hand.
"Speak quickly!" The priest on duty stepped forward.
The soldier answered immediately.
"I heard that Lester never left. He was always hiding in his house."
"A few days ago, the patrolmen saw someone sneaking out of the back door of Lester's house at night."
The crowd had just finished searching the painter's home, and then rushed to Lester's home without stopping.
What just happened at the painter's house has made the priests and soldiers share the same hatred.
For this terrifying evil, they must not let each other's tentacles and evil plans appear in Cross City, their hometown and home.
"Open the door." The door is very strong and difficult to open.
"You, you, you, climb over the wall and get in." The soldiers immediately assigned their manpower.
"You guys, get in through the back door." More than a dozen people rushed towards the back of the house.
Soon, the door opened.
Lester was also alerted and ran out to stop the priest and soldiers.
"What are you doing?"
"This is my home."
"How could you break in without permission?"
The priest on duty stepped forward, grabbed Lester by the collar, and took out the scroll issued by the temple.
"Lester."
"You are guilty of three unforgivable crimes: conducting evil research, betraying Yinsai's faith, and worshiping evil spirits. Now we want to search your yard."
Soldiers and priests stormed Leicester's home.
soon.
They discovered the house at the back, as well as the secret door and basement.
Many evidence of his crimes were found in the underground laboratory, and people even discovered that Lester's wife had died long ago, but he had never been buried.
Instead, he was conducting some kind of experiment using his wife in the basement.
People looked at the bottles in the basement containing various organs, the body of Lester's wife, and various mysterious tablets with symbols.
Needless to say, it must be some kind of extremely horrific and evil experiment.
The priest on duty at the Insai Temple in Cross City looked at the female corpse, as well as these occult books and magical secrets that even he could not understand, and finally fixed his eyes on the "God of Knowledge" on the stone slab of the spiritual contract ceremony.
" on the symbol.
"Holy Hand Lester."
"This kind of person can actually be called a saint."
When Lester saw that his wife's body was found, he excitedly stepped forward to stop the soldiers and priests.
"Don't touch her!"
"Don't touch her!"
Lester used the power of blood-sucking worms, and his arms turned into tentacles like worms, sweeping towards others.
Seven or eight soldiers were swept away like rags, and he rushed to his wife's body.
but.
He also revealed the strange and inhuman power he possesses.
The soldiers looked at Lester in monster form, not daring to step forward.
They all ran away.
"monster!"
"He's a monster!"
Now Lester's crime was completely confirmed. His terrifying form and power not only frightened the ordinary soldiers to retreat, but even the priests present were frightened.
The priest on duty immediately issued an order: "Seize him, life or death."
The entire team immediately formed a formation and used their mental power to control various weapons and attack Lester.
Although Lester has mastered extraordinary strength, he is obviously not good at fighting. This is the first time he has fought against a powerful person.
And it’s this whole team of priests.
Especially in such a narrow space, he couldn't move.
"Boom."
With a wave of his hand, he flipped over the roof of the laboratory.
He jumped out with his wife's body in his arms, jumping over ten meters in one leap.
The priests immediately followed, using all kinds of magic to greet Lester.
Not long after, another sacrificial team arrived, carrying silver thorn chains.
Lester was captured immediately, and chains were pierced through his body. As long as he moved, severe pain would immediately overwhelm him.
Lester looked angrily at everyone who broke into his home and interrupted his experiment.
"ah!"
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Why?"
"What did i do wrong?"
Everyone else looked at the priest on duty: "What should I do with him?"
The priest on duty looked at Lester's strange strength and form. He had injuries like a dozen holes pierced through his body by chains, and ordinary people would have been dead long ago.
Yet Leicester still looks energetic.
Moreover, Lester's body was seriously injured several times in the battle just now, and he recovered from his injuries in the blink of an eye.
This healing ability simply dumbfounded everyone present.
The priest on duty made a decision: "He is no longer a human being. If we delay him, there may be problems. Even the prisons in the city cannot hold him."
"This monster must be dealt with immediately, otherwise it will cause trouble."
A priest said: "Ordinary methods cannot kill him."
The priest on duty looked at Lester with cold eyes: "Then burn him to death."
"Burn him at the execution ground. I'll see who else in the Cross City dares to sacrifice to the devil in the future."
The people present nodded: "This is good, we must kill him as a warning to others."
Lester was tied in a cage, his hands were chained with silver chains, and he didn't know why he couldn't change back.
Several soldiers pushed the prison car, and four priests beside them held the other end of the silver chain to closely monitor Lester's every move.
You can see the fear of him.
The streets were full of people, and more people came out of their homes and came to the street.
Because what will be judged is the glory of the former Cross City, representing the glorious divine hand.
"Is this Mr. Lester?" People looked at the monster-like Lester and recognized his face, but they never dared to think that this was Lester.
"How did he become like this?" More and more people came to watch the fun, but they backed away after seeing Lester's terrifying form covered in blood.
"Monster, Lester is a monster!" someone shouted.
"No wonder the people he saved all turned into the living dead." People in the crowd suddenly realized and guessed the truth.
"He lied to us. He is a liar. He is not a divine hand at all. He has been using innocent patients to conduct his own evil experiments." Someone yelled and cursed in the street.
Lester was pushed to the execution ground in full view of the public.
A priest stood in front of the execution place and shouted to the dense crowd.
"After a unanimous verdict by the temple priests, we sentenced Lester for committing blasphemy, insulting corpses, sacrificing evil spirits, etc..."
"This is God's judgment."
"You will be burned at the stake."
Lester was chained to a stone pillar, facing everyone in a kneeling posture.
Lester didn't understand what he had done wrong.
He tried his best to treat every patient. In order to obtain real medical skills, he learned from the witch doctor and brought the witch doctor's knowledge and technology back to everyone.
He created the panacea in order to save the lives of his wife and others, but he never thought about being a human being.
Why.
Why does this happen?
Lester looked down at the pair of eyes that hated and doubted him, and he roared.
"I just want my wife alive."
"What's wrong with me?"
"I don't want to harm anyone, I only want to save people."
"I……"
However, a stone hit him on the head, interrupting his next words.
The one who threw the stone was the child's mother.
She looked at Lester with great hatred and let out a sharp roar.
"Evil!"
"He is the devil."
More people followed and pointed at Lester, and the curses and shouts gathered into an overwhelming wave.
"kill him!"
"Kill him to avenge the lives lost in the evil experiment."
"What are you still looking at?"
"Light a fire! Burn this damned blasphemer to death."
How much these people admired Lester and how much they trusted him.
I hate him so much now.
Lester never thought that one day he would be treated like this.
He knelt on the ground and laughed wildly, but tears kept flowing from his eyes.
"Hahahahahaha!"
"What exactly is this……"
"What the hell is this?"
"This world...this world..."
Lester seemed to be going crazy, even stumbling when he spoke.
The priest on the execution ground said to the soldiers: "Let's begin!"
The soldiers poured kerosene on the "monster" Lester, and several priests chanted the Ledlicky Oath, hoping to use the power of God to wash away this evil and sin.
Lester was tried at the execution ground, but the search for Lester's home was not over yet.
The paintings just found from the painter's house were also taken with them by several temple priests and placed in the hall of Lester's house, preparing to take them back to the temple together after searching Lester's mansion.
Searching.
The priest standing in the hall suddenly noticed something on the stone beam above his head, and he pointed at it.
"Look, is there something up there?"
The priest beside him nodded: "There seems to be something."
The two found a ladder and climbed up.
Then they discovered that it was actually a sarcophagus.
The two looked at each other and nodded.
"Open it!"
The two of them used force from both sides to lift the lid of the sarcophagus.
The moment the sarcophagus was opened, a bright light burst out from inside.
The cloth on the painting was suddenly lifted up automatically, the paint on the painting began to flow, and the half-open door on the painting was completely pushed open bit by bit.
The terrifying shadow above is twisting little by little, as if trying to break free from the canvas.
"boom!"
There was a loud bang and Lester's home was flooded with light.
Everyone present was unable to move and was swallowed by the light.
The two priests fell from a height and fell to pieces on the ground like stones.
On the execution ground, the chaotic trial continued.
"Monster Lester."
"Kill this monster."
"Look at his ugly posture, how evil he is."
Everyone shouted, and a soldier held a candlestick and used it to light the kerosene.
Seeing that Lester is about to be burned to death.
A lightning-like light burst from the earth in the distance, breaking through the clouds and connecting to the sky.
The soldier holding the candlestick was startled, and the candlestick in his hand suddenly fell to the ground and rolled downwards.
Lester immediately looked over, and he was the only one who vaguely guessed what happened.
His wife's body had long been turned into an empty shell, and he had already created another body for his wife, a powerful and perfect body made from the universal elixir.
He has been waiting for the fusion of ghost and body.
He didn't expect that he would finally complete his "resurrection ceremony" at this last moment.
Lester looked at the movement in the direction of his home and suddenly struggled forward.
The chain pulled and made a clattering sound.
"I succeeded, I succeeded."
However, something was clearly not quite right.
Because there is no need to make such a big noise when resurrecting a person.
Everyone who watched the "monster" Lester being burned to death on the execution ground looked back with shock and bewilderment in their eyes.
Only the sun in the sky dimmed in an instant, and the scorching sun turned into a dark cloud cover at noon.
A terrifying figure steamed up from the direction of Lester's house, turned into a black shadow and twisted on the ground, and finally followed the light and landed on the ground.
It was clear that something had come to Lester's home.
Everyone in Cross City heard a whisper, with a voice filled with madness and joking.
"Mortal!"
"Your god has come."
Immediately afterwards.
Rays of light spread along the street and spread rapidly from the end of the sky.
The priest on duty immediately guessed something and shouted.
"not good."
"It's the devil, it's the power of the devil."
"Everyone, run away quickly and head outside the city."
The light of original sin.
Plunder the blood of myths and create the power of ghosts.
The light of original sin swept across the earth, and in an instant countless people were frozen and turned into statues.
Street after street, city after city.
Dozens, hundreds, and tens of thousands of people died one after another in the light, turning into pale and empty statues.
"ah!"
"Evil, the evil has arrived!"
Families rushed out of their homes and fled outside. Thousands of people ran wildly on the streets. The scene was so similar.
But no matter how they ran, they couldn't outrun the light.
The second ghost city appeared.
On the execution ground, the crowd dispersed in a hurry.
Who cares about burning Leicester to death?
But the priest on duty at the execution ground fixed his eyes on Lester, and he burst out roaring.
"It's you!"
"It's you!"
"It was you who summoned the evil spirit."
The priest on duty roared and rushed forward, trying to light the kerosene to kill Lester.
However, as soon as he took two steps, the light from the sky swept across and froze him for a moment, unable to move again.
But it's interesting that when the light was about to sweep past Lester, it deliberately avoided him.
Lester saw a huge whirlpool appear in the sky, and endless fluorescent light rushed into the whirlpool and rushed to a distant place.
That is the blood of the Trileaf people, derived from the blood of the First King Lederiki.
The city became quiet little by little,
From the noise, the noise.
It became deathly silent.
At the end of the avenue, a figure in luxurious clothes walked out.
"How about it?"
"Lester..."
"Are you satisfied with this resurrection?"
Lester looked at each other and yelled: "What's going on?"
"what happened?"
"Isn't it like resurrecting my wife? Why is this so?"
Obviously, it was not Lester's wife who was resurrected.
Instead, another terrifying existence descended into this world through the body he created.
The figure laughed and said, "Your wife has been resurrected? Has she become an immortal ghost?"
Lester: "That's not the case. The resurrection you promised is not like this."
The figure said: "Then what kind of resurrection do you want? You didn't make it clear!"
"Anyway, the resurrection I gave you...is like this."
The figure opened his arms: "But you did a really good job."
"Look at this body you made for me. It's so wonderful."
"The only two beings in the world who have the power of immortality are the witch doctor and me."
"Now."
"I also got the witch doctor's share."
The God of Knowledge laughed loudly: "Perhaps, this is perfect eternal life!"
He grinned and tilted his head to look at Lester.
"I granted your wish."
"Now, it's my turn to collect the price."
Lester looked at him blankly: "What on earth are you...?"
The existential voice went straight into Lester's mind: "Me?"
"Then there's no need to ask."
"I am God!"
Lester struggled fiercely: "How can there be a god like you?"
Lester yelled at him crazily: "Why don't you kill me?"
"You killed me!"
The figure laughed: "Your life has been mine for a long time. You are very interesting and you have done a great thing for me."
"I won't leave you here, I will turn you into a ghost and take you away."
"Lester."
"You are my treasure."
The figure looked at this dead city and let out an exclamation.
"Look! This scene is so beautiful."
"I will take your life last."
"Take a good look at this city of death you created!"
That voice.
Evil to the extreme.
But at this time, the "God of Knowledge" did not notice the deep changes in his body.
His body was rapidly deforming, and the two bloodlines of wisdom and life were rapidly conflicting, which was immediately reflected in his body.
The way he wanted to come to this world by relying on the power of life was simply not feasible.
