Chapter 14: God and ......
Dong Scorpion was sweating like rain at this time.
He entered the bathroom, stripped himself of his clothes, and turned on the shower to rinse himself.
At this moment, he realized that he had been cornered. If he could not awaken his spiritual nature, he would surely die. In this battle, he has no room for anything. If he couldn't get out of this classroom, he couldn't have killed Wilwin.
He let the hot water rush over his head, and the thought of Vervin gave way to hatred and murderous intent.
"Vilvin Gomynik! Wilvan! Wilvan! ”
Just the thought of Wilwyn made the hatred in his heart transcend fear.
He's going to kill Welvin!
At this time, outside the door, everyone's mood became more and more unstable. After all, a large number of ghosts gathered outside, but on Dong Scorpion's side, there was no progress at all.
But it's ...... This time, Gao Ying really couldn't think of any way. He had even tried to scatter money before, but there was no doubt that it was impossible to "buy" the ghosts. As for the guns on their bodies, they are naturally of no use to ghosts.
Agnes' expression was particularly grim, after all, she could feel more than anyone else how terrible the situation outside the classroom was.
Right now...... Not to mention going to take the midterm exams, it's impossible to even get out alive. In this situation, there is no other way than to pin hopes on Dong Scorpion. The thought of having her life in the hands of a man who used to have the surname Gomynik in mind made Agnes unhappy.
"Let's go back and rest first." Gao Ying made a suggestion: "It seems that in a short period of time, there will be no results. We gather here, and we can't change anything. In that case, there is only one thing to do. ”
Completely pinning one's life and death on others is not Gao Ying's consistent style. However, the reality is often harsh. Even though Gao Ying is full of wisdom, in the face of the current situation, there is no countermeasure at all. Humans are too weak in front of ghosts. All kinds of rewards can only improve self-protection ability at most, and even an Abyss-level candidate can't kill a ghost, at most he can do sealing. The Geerzwarren family has been studying this thorny problem for more than half a century, and the final conclusion is still unsolvable. Of course, this is also the same for Verwin, whether it is the Vatican or the Maoshan Taoist, the means that can kill ghosts in the exam do not exist at all.
The insurmountable gap between humans and ghosts puts them at an absolute disadvantage in the exam forever. And there is only one way to change this, pass the final exam and gain immortal life. This is the only way.
After Gao Ying and the others left, it was still a torturous moment for Dong Scorpion.
He was half-lying in the shower, letting the hot water pour over his head.
Father Midley......
In my memory, the priest's voice and smile seem to be yesterday.
But now the priest has become an out-and-out demon. For Dong Scorpion, this psychological impact is quite large.
"I should ...... How to do ......"
Dong Scorpion held his face in both hands, and he knew that he was still one step away from the complete awakening of the spiritual essence. However, this last step is like a moat, and it is not so easy to cross.
Father Midley had a high reputation in the Vatican and was close to the Gominic family. In Dong Scorpion's memory, the priest said that the two people he admired the most were Mother Teresa and the other was the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. Pastor Kim was only 10 years old when he was assassinated. Although Pastor King is a Protestant Christian, unlike the Catholic Church to which the priest converted, the priest very much agrees with Pastor King's declaration that "I have a dream". He was the only one in the entire Vatican to speak to the Gominic family and explicitly oppose the active hunt for the devil's messengers.
According to the priest, there is no essential difference between the indiscriminate and large-scale hunt of devil's messengers and the Sailon witch hunt in the United States. He said that man was born sinful, but Jesus Christ was willing to be crucified for the atonement of mankind, so why did he kill the messengers of the devil indiscriminately? As a child, under the influence of Father Midley, who personally baptized him, Werwin was not as aggressive and frantic as he is now, and took a murderous attitude towards the Devil's Messenger. As for Dong Scorpion, he is just an adopted son in the Gomynik family, and he has no right to speak at all, so naturally he can't talk about what to support or oppose.
Influenced by the priest, who had also admonished his father, Count Gomynik, he agreed with the priest that there was no need to kill all the devil's messengers. He even said that in the sixties and seventies, the Ku Klux Klan in the South discriminately discriminated against and even abused all blacks, and that the affirmative action movement corrected this mistake. But if the devil's messengers are killed without screening, what is the difference between them and the Ku Klux Klux Klan?
If you see Werwin now, most people will have a hard time believing that he will be like this when he was a child.
Dong Scorpion also likes the priest very much. In the Gominik family, except for the Count and the Countess, everyone else always doesn't have much of a good face when they look at themselves. Even Wilvan didn't like himself very much. At that time, Dong Scorpion would often go to the church where the priest was located. He hoped to get an answer from the priest that came from God. He wondered why the power of the devil was so strong and the evil spirits were so terrifying. If God exists, why not kill all those ghosts? And the priest would always say to him, believe in God, believe that God loves the world. All the trials God gave them would be the cornerstone of their faith.
Those days were short. However, in the church, in front of the priest, Dong Scorpion used to have faith in God. The priest was always kind and treated everyone equally, and it was impossible to imagine that he had a high status in the Vatican. Because of the threat of evil spirits, he had to live separately from his parents, and the priest guided him to believe in God, which opened a new door for him. It was also the faith that the priest guided him to endure the despair of losing his parents. However, such a priest died like this, not only did he die, but the god he believed in did not save him from the devil, but turned him into a demon.
When the priest died tragically in front of Werwin, he completely changed his mind and became the radical he is now. This degree of radicalism is even higher than that of Count Gominik. And Dong Scorpion is the same. He hated the candidates who had killed Count Gomynik, and later assisted Vilvin by killing them one by one. But the irony is that now Dong Scorpion and Wilwin have become candidates they once hated.
Dong Scorpion finally stood up and turned off the faucet.
"Are you wrong...... Father, God does not love the world. All the trials we go through are not the cornerstone of our faith, but only make us more aware of the cruelty of this world and the fact that the devil is more powerful than God. ”
Once, Dong Scorpion thought that by believing in God, he could defeat the devil by faith. Now that I think about it, how ridiculous.
"Father ...... You should have been in heaven, you shouldn't have been reduced to this......"
Dong Scorpion walked out of the shower room, came to the mirror, and wiped off the water vapor in front of the mirror.
"I'm still ...... Do you have to go this far? ”
Meanwhile...... Wilvin walked to the door of the midterm exam room.
Confused, Isabella walked up and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"God...... Father ...... "At this time, Wilwin's body trembled, which was a rare change for Isabella to see.
Wilvin clenched his fists.
"Father, he's here!"
Then, Wilvin took a deep breath.
"Isabella, I have to get out. I have to go to the priest. ”
"Are you crazy? Verwin? Isabella couldn't believe her ears, "You know it's going to ......"
"I was taught by the priest from a young age, and it was he who made me firm in my devout faith in God. I can't let him just turn into a demon. It doesn't matter, I have the reward of time control in hand, and the ghost can't kill me easily. In the name of God, I want to save the soul of the priest......"
