Chapter 2: The Devil Worshippers
1929 was a year for the capitalist world that was definitely worth writing about, as the New York Stock Exchange stock price crashed like an avalanche in October of that year, and the chain reaction that ensued began the great economic crisis that swept through the capitalist world.
However, the crisis has been around since October. The disastrous day of October 1929 was preceded by the twilight before the darkness of the capitalist industrial powers, and it was in what seemed to be the most glorious time, and so was Germany.
With the implementation of the Dawes Plan, which helped Germany recover its economy after World War I, the years before 1929 were years of hope for Germany. In 1927, his industrial output once again surpassed that of Britain and France, and returned to the second place among capitalist countries. However, the pride of the Germans was only until 1929, and the economic crisis that engulfed the entire capitalist world would send Germany back into the hell it had been a few years earlier, and by the way, pave the way for the coming to power of the mustache a few years later.
In the last quiet months before the catastrophe, the construction of the pocket battleship Reichs, located at the Kiel shipyard, was in an unexpectedly smooth way. The large-scale introduction of the welding process into the construction process of warships is a completely new technology, which requires extremely high levels of skilled workers in the field operation, and it is not surprising that there are quality problems and rework.
But in fact, the construction process of the entire warship was extremely smooth, not only did there not have a single quality accident, but the construction of several connection parts that were originally worried about difficult welding was all completed smoothly at one time. So by September, the Deutschland was built a month faster than expected.
The reason why it is so smooth is entirely the result of the covert manipulation of Hans and Lin Han, two "unscientific" beings. As a "crossing welfare", one of the special abilities possessed by the two "inhumans" is the ability to deform and shape metal materials. Those parts of the construction process that were not of good quality were repaired by Hans with his own ability long before they were discovered by the quality inspectors.
Of course, the use of competence does not come without a price. Changing the connection status of a solder joint, or repairing a tiny crack in a solder joint, consumes the "power of faith" that Hans has accumulated over the course of seventy years.
In order to travel back in time, Hans had exhausted the power of faith that he had accumulated over the decades.
The current Lin Han and Hans, they have to consume a certain amount of faith power to maintain their own existence every day, and after coming to 1929, the source of faith power from the original time and space has been cut off. If the power of faith is exhausted, he and Lin Han will naturally die as well.
Fortunately, they are now on the battleship Deutschland, which is under construction, and those Germans who have the dream of reviving the German navy have been providing them with a steady stream of faith power. The amount of these faith powers is not too large, but they can still accumulate in addition to maintaining the existence of the two of them. If the Deutschland can be completed and launched as soon as possible, it will definitely be able to absorb more power of faith. Due to the small amount of faith accumulated by the two of them and the limited capital, Hans can only make minor repairs to the Deutsche under construction in small places to eliminate "rework" and speed up the construction progress. If the power of faith is sufficient, Hans can use his shaping ability to fuse all the welded and jointed seams of the hull directly into one, and even turn the entire hull structure into a single whole - provided that he has a large amount of faith to consume.
While Hans was staring at the shipyard workers as if he were overseer, Lin Han's consciousness was in a fugue state for a long time. He wandered around the shipyard for several kilometers in a bored sense, watching the movements of the people around him. As the construction of the Deutschland continued, so did the range of their senses, and by September 1929, they had expanded to a radius of 10 kilometers, including both residential and commercial areas around the shipyard.
Long before the end of the first month after the crossing, he and Hans had "nothing to say". The communication between two minds that will not get tired is a very short and fast thing, because the process of "language expression" is completely omitted, and the other party knows what you want to say, and the two are in a state of synchronous sharing of thoughts and ideas, and the communication is really fast. Therefore, in less than a month, the "words that both sides can say" were said early.
What does the future hold? The two discussed a rough plan. For the rest of his life, Hans was engrossed in the unpaid role of a free overseer, while Linhan focused on watching the lives of the commoners in the nearby living quarters.
As evening approached, business began to improve in a beer hall less than two kilometers away from the shipyard Deutschland. In the dim light, workers from all over the factory gathered in the beer hall, listening to the music played by the gramophone, drinking beer, and telling their stories through the strength of the wine.
For the time being, we have not seen all kinds of street politicians speaking on the beer hall speaking platform. With a month to go before the Great Economic Crisis that swept the entire capitalist world, Germany was enjoying the last days of leisure and tranquility under the Weimar government.
Lin Han paid attention to this beer hall and listened intently to the different stories of different characters, and this feeling of looking down on all beings in a "god" posture was very strange, and if he personally ended up and manipulated the fate of all beings, it would feel even more wonderful.
Through the present, Lin Hanzheng unconsciously positions himself from the perspective of "non-human".
There was a soft snort in the beer hall, and the beautiful waitress who had just put a bunch of beer on the table suddenly covered her chest with her hands and shook her body, and then her skirt was lifted by an invisible hand, revealing the sexy thong inside.
There was a small commotion in the beer hall, and the male customers around him, some of whom looked gentlemanly and turned their heads away, some of whom gloated and took the opportunity to feast their eyes, and the initiator of the chrysalis felt a little depressed.
"I used to be happy to be able to touch a woman like this, but now, I don't feel anything."
There is no ** and no feeling, Lin Han, who is in a spirit state, sighs secretly, and his mood is very depressed.
"Sheltered" on the Deutschland, he possessed non-human abilities that changed with the distance from the Deutschland's hull. The half-completed Deutschland is his home turf, where he and Hans can shape the metal form of the hull at will at the cost of the power of faith, microscopic at the atomic level. With invisible telekinesis, they can lift even objects weighing hundreds of kilograms with lightness.
But these mortal abilities are only limited to the hull of the ship deposited by the spirit, and if they are more than ten meters away from the hull, these abilities are weakened by Yan Zhan to only two percent of the effect, and when they are two kilometers away, what Lin Han can do, in addition to perception, is only to use his telekinesis to be an invisible **touch woman. These days, when Lin Han is bored, he often does this kind of thing, which makes this beer hall "famous", and after the "invisible supernatural event" comes out, it has caused countless good people around him to come to hunt for curiosity.
Among these curiosity hunters, there are many so-called "devil worshippers", and they are Lin Han's prey. Now Lin Han does not hesitate to consume the power of faith to do these things, not only because it is "fun", but for a special purpose.
In an upscale private room on the second floor of the beer hall, three men and a woman sit around a table where two men from the United States are businessmen from the United States and a local jewelry merchant and his beautiful young wife on the other.
The German businessman, whose name was Derek, had gone bankrupt five months earlier and was preparing to commit suicide by jumping into the port of Kiel. But now, he is a well-known local jeweller and a guest of many Junker aristocratic households.
Derek. Franz had just negotiated a $2 million diamond deal with an American businessman today, and now it was just a courtesy banquet. After ten o'clock, the guests parted ways happily, but instead of leaving, the Derek couple returned to their seats and sipped their wine in silence, their faces showing no joy after the business was settled.
The beer hall was closing, and he was open a little earlier than before.
By eleven o'clock, the beer hall had been completely deserted, and most of the staff had dispersed, except for the upskirted hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Derek, and the tavern owner with a balding head in the Mediterranean.
After eleven o'clock, the beer hall is bustling with activity again, and new customers arrive by car or on foot, knock on the small door of the beer hall, and enter one by one. Before they entered, they both showed each other's tokens: an inverted cross around their necks. Only this time, they were not entertained in the wine hall on the ground floor, but in the basement on the ground floor.
The basement on the ground floor was originally a wine cellar, but when the beer hall changed hands three months ago, the new owner expanded it into an underground prayer hall that can accommodate 300 people.
There were no lights in the basement, only a few candles were lit in the four corners. More than a hundred people entered the tavern, including the richly dressed jeweler couple from before, all dressed in fat black robes at this moment, and only one face appeared, and sat together in four circles in a circle.
In the center of this hollow circle there was a dry pool less than a meter in diameter, and two maidens dressed in white gauze, one gold and one black, each carrying a silver flask, pumped red wine from the oak barrels on the side, and carefully poured into the pool.
The girl's face was reverent, and the people sitting around the side also had extremely pious expressions. When the red liquor poured into the pool, there was a chanting around them.
"Zaa, Nastanada Zaza, Zaza......"
+++ "You can feel it, such a strong power of faith, although there are only more than a hundred people, but it is stronger than more than a thousand people combined. As long as we gather enough fanatics to provide us with the power of faith, we will not have to sink with the Junkers on the wrecked ship of the Deutschland. Why can't you think about it? What is the future of helping the mustache fight World War II? ”
Looking down at the scene that was taking place in the basement, Lin Han smiled lightly, this qiē was all planned by him in the past few months. He has not been idle in the past few months, and these cultists who believe in evil gods are the tricks he has made these days.
As a Cunzi who evolved from a German stick fan to a German black, Lin Han knows very well what kind of mess Mustache took over when he came to power three years later, and he also knows very well how bad the cards in Mustache's hand were during World War II, and how powerful and terrifying the opponent was. To paraphrase a modern phrase, even with him and Hans behind him, this World War II quest called "Mustache's Ambition" is still a hellish task.
As long as he has a choice, Lin Han doesn't want to accompany Hans to go crazy and do this kind of stupid thing that is almost the power of a country to challenge the whole world. During this time, he gave Hans a lot of very undisciplined advice, such as getting rid of the mustache in advance and killing the key figures in the group of Junker generals, instigating the fight between the National Socialist Party and the Junkers officer corps, and leading to the German Civil War, but unfortunately Hans rejected them all.
"No!"
This time, Hans's answer was as resolute as ever.
"I'm so stupid, how could I want to discuss with a soulless machine."
Lin Han screamed weakly.
Hans continued: "I am a combination of the human will to yearn for war! ”
"Originally I was an aggregate of Nazi Germany's will to fight."
"Later, I was the polymer of the world's will to war."
"The meaning of my birth and existence is to prepare for a world war, plan a world war, and move a world war."
When Hans usually communicates with Lin Han, he always maintains the tranquility of the ancient well, and does not feel a trace of human affection at all, but every time he mentions war, his will immediately becomes fanatical like a fire, just as Hitler heard the news of the outbreak of the First World War.
War is Hans's greatest pleasure, just as Lin Han's friendship (river crab) is the greatest pleasure for men.
He said to Lin Han in a fanatical and rational "tone": "I can't refuse to help Adolf by myself. Hitler moved the ** of World War II, this is a natural mission engraved into my soul. There is no point in trying to convince me! Just as I will not be able to persuade you not to help your country cope with the Japanese invasion seven years later! Although your soul is still filled with low-level ** such as mating, in the deepest part of your soul, you still have the dream of bringing your motherland to the top power. Isn't what you're doing here here just to help the man who can take your country out of the abyss in the future in a few years, with the help of those people out there? It is also an irresistible sense of mission engraved into your soul. ”
"The man in China is the great man who will bring China back to earth from hell, and the mustache of Adolf will bring Germany to hell. Forget it, what am I arguing with you brainless ......"
Lin Han muttered in his heart. Hans, who was one with him, was not a man, and as a collection of ideas, he had no soul but wisdom, no human emotions such as joys, sorrows, and sorrows—there was still one thing, and that was the fanaticism for war. He stores a lot of knowledge like a computer, but like a computer, he is a dead brain who only follows preset programs.
Once again, Linhan's persuasion of Hans was fruitless. Reluctantly giving up on the idea, he put his consciousness back into the "Evil God Prayer" ritual that was taking place in the basement.
The pool was filled with jugs of red wine, and gradually rose to knee-high levels, and the surrounding incantations of "Zaa, Zaza, Nastanada Zaza......" became louder and louder.
The two praying girls who poured wine put down the wine jug and slowly took off the white gauze skirts on their bodies, revealing two sexy and perfect young and delicate bodies. Then they hugged each other and stepped barefoot into the wine pool.
The moment the second girl stepped into the wine pool, the candle flames around her jumped violently, and the shadow cast by the girl on the ground also shook violently. The pool wine under the girl's feet floated as if it had come to life, and the girl's sexy and charming body was constantly climbing along the ankles. Soon, the part of the girl's body from the neck down was completely wrapped in red wine.
The golden girl and the black girl hugged each other, kissed, rubbed, and came out of their mouths as if there was nothing in their mouths.
The liquid of red wine attached to them is constantly changing into various shapes, such as ropes, hands, and sticks, which are as strange as demons.
Under the light of the candle flame, the two bewitching bodies writhed like two entangled beautiful snakes. The air was filled with the aroma of red wine, the ears were filled with the moving sound of spring, and the more than 100 onlookers lowered their heads and still chanted reverently and repeatedly, and no one dared to raise their heads.
When the clock struck twelve o'clock in the night, the two entangled bewitches screamed together, and then collapsed in the pool. The golden girl and the black girl hugged each other and collapsed in the wine pool, their heads resting on the edge of the pool, panting for a moving breath.
And the red wine pool under them continued to bubble strangely at this time, rising denser and denser, and the surrounding prayers also stopped their spells at the moment when the midnight bell rang.
The bubbles of the red wine became denser and denser, and the whole pool of red wine boiled as if it were boiling, and a large amount of red wine rushed out of the water, solidifying in the air and forming a humanoid body.
The "Call of the Evil God" ritual is complete!
