An Unexpected Turn
There's something wrong with him... Thinking about it, Lorry stood up.
This middle-aged and elderly man, who was also wearing shabby clothes and had deep grooves on his face, laughed and said, "I knew you wouldn't let me down."
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet the other brothers."
"Trust me, you won't regret it when you get there!"
After that, he turned around and walked towards where he came from.
Lorry looked at the other person's back thoughtfully and raised his heels.
He thought about it, but there was no idea of looking for Altair. It was better to go there and see what was going on, maybe there would be some unexpected gains.
Lorry never considered the possibility that this was a trap.
First of all, the other party's striking up a conversation was an accident, and Spirituality didn't give any warning in his gut.
Secondly, he is confident that he has enough ability to deal with emergencies. No matter what happens, he can still escape by using "Teleportation".
In this way, the two of them left the street one after another.
Through casual conversation on the road, Lorry learned that the middle-aged and elderly man's name was Arthur, and he had just been fired from a glass-making company, Factory.
The reason is that the abolition of "Corn Laws" caused a large number of farmers to work in cities. He is a bit old and his work efficiency is not as good as that of young and strong newcomers.
Arriving at the gate of an abandoned Factory, Arthur turned back and said with a smile:
"We're here, Brother Bart, it's inside."
He then slammed the door hard.
A banging sound suddenly echoed in the nearby open space.
Soon, a whisper came from the door:
"All Things Are Illusory."
Arthur replied in a respectful tone, "See Through to the Truth."
After the words fell, Lorry's heart moved, and he secretly became a little more cautious.
The two acted like they were exchanging secret signals.
There is something unspeakably strange about similar operations happening to unemployed workers.
Boom!
The small door on the rusty dark red iron door was opened.
Lorry followed Arthur and walked in, continuing along the gravel road covered with moss and weeds, passing through a large number of collapsed or damaged factory buildings, and finally entered a relatively intact workshop.
Inside was a crowd of Wuyang Wuyang people, at least close to a hundred people.
They are both male and female, and their ages vary, but the only thing they have in common is that their clothes are shabby or even tattered, and their faces are pale and their eyes are numb.
Are they all laid-off workers? Lorry secretly guessed, pretending to be terrified:
"Brother Arthur, this..."
"Haha, don't be afraid, they are all our brothers and sisters." Arthur smiled heartily and respectfully greeted the approaching man in gray robe.
He lowered his head and whispered:
"Mentor."
Mentor...Lorry then lowered their heads.
"You did a good job and brought in many brothers and sisters for us." The man named Mentor by Arthur nodded lightly, his eyes showing satisfaction.
He patted Arthur on the shoulder and said in an encouraging tone:
"Keep up the good work, and you will soon be personally received by Archbishop, enjoy the baptism of God, and save more brothers and sisters."
Arthur promised with excitement:
"Follow the teachings of Mentor!"
After hearing the conversation between the two, Lorry couldn't help but feel very complicated.
Password, Mentor, Archbishop personally receive and enjoy the baptism of God... Co-authored This is a Evil God Believer gathering place!
Such unexpected gains really surprised him.
He couldn't help but wonder if there was a magnet on his body that attracted Evil God Believer. Otherwise, why did he encounter them one after another?
First it was Altair, and now there are a batch of other Evil God Believer.
At this time, Lorry suddenly felt the sight of Mentor looking over at him, and quickly collected his thoughts, pretending to be nervous.
Mentor looked Lorry up and down. "This new brother..."
"Bart, his name is Bart." Arthur helped answer.
"Bart, right?" Mentor nodded and said with a smile, "You are lucky. You can listen to Deputy Bishop's sermons just after joining our big family."
Sermon...Lorry took a deep breath and quickly communicated "Curse of Knowledge":
"Old Gentleman, this sermon..."
The old voice hesitated for a few seconds and said:
"The premise is that it does not involve the real and valid Evil God Honorific Name.
"There should be no problem. Didn't you find that those ordinary people are still alive and well? Of course, if you are worried, you can pray for the protection of God.
"I can use some means to let Him provide you with some protection. At least your Spirituality intuition can warn you in advance and give you time to leave here."
It paused for a moment and then chanted Ancient Hermes:
"Tower of Knowledge, Incarnation of Reason, God of Wisdom, Scholar Who Understands All Things."
Lorry imitated it honestly.
Soon, he vaguely felt the invisible majestic power coming to him, and his heart suddenly felt much more settled.
"Curse of Knowledge" sighed:
"All Things Are Illusory, See Through to the Truth... I wonder which incarnation of Evil God is this? Boy, if you make a contribution in this matter, you can save a fortune Pound."
"I would rather spend the money." Lorry replied, followed Arthur to find a corner to sit down, and like everyone else, began to wait for the arrival of Deputy Bishop.
Not long after, a man wearing white Hooded Robe, led by Gray-Robed Mentor, walked onto the high platform and looked around at everyone with sharp eyes.
Most of his face was covered by the shadow of the hood, but One-Eyed's eyes were so bright that even the shadows seemed unable to cover up their light.
When Deputy Bishop was staring at him, Lorry actually felt like there were thorns in his back.
Suddenly, Deputy Bishop shouted coldly:
"He has a problem!"
After the words fell, everyone looked at Deputy Bishop's gaze.
Gray-Robed Mentor showed a fierce look in his eyes. He waved his hand and scratched the air twice, attracting a stream of air out of thin air and turning it into a sharp blade in his hand!
What kind of ability is this? Lorry felt nervous when he saw it.
Not far away from him and Arthur, the old man who gathered everyone's attention looked panicked and stood up tremblingly:
"I, I didn't.
"I just, obsessed with it, went to Church.
"Nothing, I didn't say anything."
Deputy Bishop was silent for two seconds, nodded slightly, and glanced at Gray-Robed Mentor:
"Truth."
Hearing this, Gray-Robed Mentor shook his hand and turned the blade into air again.
Deputy Bishop stared at the elderly man closely and said indifferently:
"It won't happen again."
After that, he suddenly raised his voice, and instead of speaking as long as Lorry imagined, he first asked everyone two questions:
"What is reality?"
"How can you be sure that the world you see is real?"
Dusk.
Lorry left with the others.
There were hundreds of people in the workshop, which seemed crowded, but looking at the entire East Borough, it quickly disappeared like water droplets into the sea.
He walked outside East Borough and took Hired Carriage to Ceramics Factory.
In the silent carriage, "Curse of Knowledge" couldn't help but take the initiative to speak, "Evil God Believer always likes to exaggerate the facts. Their words cannot be believed."
"Haha, Old Gentleman, where did you want to go?" Lorry was awakened by the sudden voice deep in his heart, with a helpless expression on his face.
He whispered in his heart:
"I'm just wondering, where did this organization named "Fantasy Society" come from, and why is it so anxious to develop Believer?
"What is their purpose? What do they want to do?"
Thinking about it, he sighed with emotion:
"But to be fair, their Holy Communion tastes pretty good. It's meat pie, cake, and Black Tea. It probably cost a lot.
"I don't know what the standard is for non-preaching days... Well, I mean, this "Fantasy Society" is very dangerous!
"We must report to Lieutenant Colonel immediately!"
