Chapter 22: The Swollen-Faced Nurse

"Your statement is very interesting...... Dear Mr. Babu...... At the back of the crowd, a quiet voice was heard, and then a middle-aged woman, who was the cleanest dressed in comparison, approached by several tall men.

"You just said that this stranger dressed as a priest has the same faith as us, and he even has the power to drive out demons, right?"

The woman's words emphasize the "priest's clothes", but she does not admit that Lilin's "priest's identity ......" is just a few words of change, which has already exposed the woman's psychological posture of not welcoming Lilin.

"Yes, dear Chris? Bella, I can attest to that. "Babu doesn't have any heart, and he doesn't hear Chris at all? Meaning in Bella's words.

And at this moment, the old woman who was the first to attack Lilin and them suddenly rushed towards Chris, who had just arrived here? Bella, holding the woman's hands, cried and said, "Chris? Bella, they ...... These demons...... These witches, they yin* my Anna, delivered her into the hands of the devil, please...... I beg you, please punish them......"

Chris? Bella took a soft breath, a kind, warm smile like a virgin appeared on her face, she clasped the old woman's hands and said, "Eleanor, you must remember that Anna did not carry out the rules I set, she disobeyed my orders, went out alone, and even broke into the territory of the devil......"

Hear Chris? When Bella said this, the old woman Eleanor suddenly cried into tears, but she didn't say a word again. Bishop Chris? What Bella said is always right, since she said that it was Anna's fault, then it was already her daughter's fault, dead...... It can only be deserved, who told her not to listen to what Chris said.

"But......" The bishop's voice changed, but her eyes suddenly turned to Lilin and her party, and said with a cold smile on the corner of her mouth: "Eleanor is not wrong about one thing, Anna was indeed tempted by demons, and now, these witches have entered the realm of the supreme god, this cathedral."

Lilin they are witches, since Archbishop Chris? Bella said so, so even if they are men, they are still "witches......

This is not surprising, in the history of world religions, in the forties of the last century, there was even a "fighting chicken among roosters", because he violated the laws of nature, violated the laws of nature set by God, and laid an egg privately, and was thus tied to the stake. was burned to death as a "witch", although this is no different from "roast chicken......

The topic is far away, all in all, inside this cathedral, no, it should be said that in this human world of Silent Hill, she Chris? Bella, whatever she says is God's will, everyone must obey it, and she has the right to decide the fate of anyone.

It was the feeling that came with this power was so good that she made the decision to expel them after hearing the secret report from her men that a person who might threaten her position had been brought here by the Báb......

The person in front of him rushed up again, trying to squeeze himself out of the door.

The policewoman, Sibel, pulled out the pistol at her waist...... She still has one last bullet that could change the situation if it were used to fire a demonstration.

But Inspector Gucci beside the policewoman grabbed his trigger and shook his head lightly and quietly, unlike the policewoman, the detective who came all the way here with Lilin had already had almost blind confidence in Lilin's endless methods, and he believed that difficulties like the one in front of him would not be difficult for Lilin at all. ..., and the Ruth couple on the side obviously had the same intention.

Lilin really lived up to his expectations, in front of everyone, he resolutely took two steps forward, the next moment, the dazzling holy light has shone in every corner of the church, under the magical power that can wash away all the filth, here was originally all dirty people, in the warm fire in the blink of an eye was completely "cleaned", the worn clothes returned to their original color, and due to the extreme lack of water, it took a long time to be able to wash the body casually in a pool of stinky water, It's like a hot spring sauna for a whole day, and it becomes extremely clean......

This is the power of the fire of holiness, but the only person who uses this supreme flame of faith as a washing machine and a bathhouse is Ririn......

Not only everyone here, but also all kinds of filth on the ground, walls, and ceilings were completely burned away, and the whole cathedral was completely renewed......

The human skin that had been held in Lilin's hand before was also burned by the holy fire at close range, and the blood stains and stains on it were also burned, although there was only one human skin left, but the youthful face of the girl Anna could still be clearly distinguished from this human skin, and the face of the human skin had a satisfied smile, and there was still a little bit of endless pain caused by being skinned alive before......

Lilin smiled and handed the human skin of the young girl Anna to her mother's hand, and said softly: "Anna is a good child, she was caught by the devil in order to punish the witch, her fearlessness, her courage, have touched the gods, so her soul has also returned to the hands of the gods, and has received endless blessings...... So, you shouldn't feel sad, you should be proud of your daughter......"

As if to prove what Lilin said, behind Lilin, a large area of holy fire was spilled out, and in the pure white firelight, the face of a young girl loomed, wasn't it the unlucky girl Anna......

"This ...... This is magic, this is witchcraft, absolutely yes, it is a messenger sent by the devil, he is here to deceive us, and we must drive them out at once...... It's not enough, we're going to burn him here right away," the supreme lord of this cathedral is already in disarray...... The "miracle" that Lilin Fang showed just now was almost beyond her comprehension, but the heroine instinctively felt the crisis, the biggest crisis, the slightest carelessness, and she would never recover......

Chris? Bella, in the parish of Silent Hill, counting the thirty years trapped in the nightmare space, has actually controlled the church for nearly forty years, and it is no exaggeration to say that if she had not led the believers to build this last refuge at the most critical moment, the revenge plan of the archdemon Teresa would have been completed thirty years ago.

So Chris? Bella, who has an absolutely high prestige here, said what she said, no one dared to doubt it, she actually said that what Lilin had just performed was witchcraft, then it must be.

Lilin must be a demon, a witch, and the only way to treat them is to use a burner at the stake......

Looking at the fanatics who were approaching him again, the smile on Lilin's face still did not change, I saw that he took a deep breath, and the next moment, he actually shouted and cursed......

"Stupid~~~"

Rilin's voice was so loud that everyone here felt their ears buzzing and their heads were dizzy.

Lilin looked around for a moment, satisfied with the effect of his shout, and he paused before he continued: "The Lord says, you have to believe, believe what you ought to believe, believe in yourself what you ought to believe, but you also have to doubt, doubt what you would not normally doubt, doubt what you would not otherwise doubt...... Then, you will find that there is only one truth, and it is right in front of your eyes........., everyone was stunned by him for a long time, although they did not understand all of his meaning, but they did stop their movements.

Li Lin looked around and smiled slightly, "Is it really witchcraft that I just performed?" Do you really think it's witchcraft? Well, I can tell you clearly that every single one of you here is a true witch."

"You're talking nonsense"

"You lied"

"You liar who speaks for the devil......"

“……”

“……”

Lilin smiled until they had all finished their words and the scene was quiet again before continuing, "The reason why I say that is because the miracles I have performed just now are actually your own power. ”

"What's going on? You're lying again" There was another commotion, and Lilin was not in a hurry at all, and waited until they were quiet before continuing: "The Supreme God cannot deny that all of you are the most devout believers, and the power of faith you exude is so mellow and so clean, as soon as I came here, I clearly felt your faith, your power, so I brought this power into play, and let your pure faith show miracles in yourself...... This is what the Lord has given you, and this is what you deserve......"

This time, everyone stopped talking, if what Fang Cai Li Lin said was true, wouldn't it mean that Fang Cai's pure holy light, that warm feeling, that power that could completely calm the whole mind, that kind of power that was infinitely close to God, would actually come from his own body......

If Fang Cai Lilin said that this was his doing, then everyone would naturally go back and doubt, after all, this kind of experience given by others can't last long at all, it's just a dream, and if it's addicted, it will be controlled by others, isn't this the method that demons are best at using to tempt believers to fall?

But Rielin said that this kind of power came from their own faith, a gift from God, and that such a favor was not something that only the Most High God could do......

Moreover, everyone instinctively felt that the miracle they had just experienced on their body did have a strange sense of familiarity, as if it were a part of their own body.

Of course, they would feel this way, because Lilin did not lie, and the "miracle" of Fang Cai was the fuel of the fire of faith that he ignited in this church, which was almost condensed into substance, and the fuel of the fire of holiness was itself the power of faith.

"He, he's lying, you can't believe him, he's here to tempt you to fall" Chris? Archbishop Bella was still struggling, and where could Lilin give her this opportunity, only to see him suddenly point at the bishop and shout: "Witch, shut up for me"

"What did you say? You said...... You say I'm a witch? What are you kidding? "Chris? Bella never dreamed that one day, someone would point at her and buckle the big basin of "witch" on her head......

Myself...... I must still be dreaming......

Lilin put away his kind smile, and with a solemn look on his face at this time, he pointed at Chris? Bella said loudly: "Witch, look at yourself, that is the most direct proof of your filthy identity"

"On my body?" Chris? Bella looked at her in confusion, and at the same time, she became the focus of attention of all the cultists, and soon, everyone knew what Rilin was referring to......

Archbishop of Silent Hill Cathedral, Chris? Bella, at this time, she is the only one in this church, still dirty, her face covered with dirt ........., "You...... You...... I...... I ...... "For a moment, Chris?" Bella didn't know what to say, and to be honest, she still hadn't had time to understand why Rilin had labeled her a "witch" because she hadn't been baptized by the fire.

Lilin's face was holy, and he said solemnly and sacredly: "What I have just done is to ignite the 'faith' in all the people here, and the more people who have devout beliefs, the more extensive the divine grace will be experienced......

At this point, Lilin deliberately paused and let these members check on themselves, and sure enough, among those who are recognized as "not religious enough" (but relatively speaking, anyone here can be as pious as cardinals in other planes), the degree of cleansing by the Holy Fire is relatively weak, and there seems to be a faint residue of filth in the most inconspicuous places of the body, and those who are often in Chris? The core figures of the church who assisted Bella were simply emitting a blurry and gentle white light inside and out, and they had not completely retreated until now......

And the outsiders behind Lilin were still the same from beginning to end, and even the blood stains on their bodies did not disappear.

Lilin is an outsider, and it is impossible to know the level of faith of the people here, but the facts are in front of him, and the level of faith of everyone is clear at a glance, and they are basically convincing.

On the other hand, this directly confirms Lilin's words, so, is he still the same Chris? Bella, is it really the witch sent by the devil to tempt them to fall, as Rilin said?

"He, he's lying, Fang Cai's witchcraft is his work, he can naturally make nothing happen to me, you can't trust him. The things that have just happened to you, the magic, are the dirtiest things, they are all illusions, and you cannot accept them......"

Chris? Bella argued hoarsely, but this time, instead of touching the crowd, her words showed disgruntled expressions on the faces of those who were most loyal to him.

The "miracles" that remain in them are the most obvious and strong, which is the truest and most direct proof of their unwavering faith. Isn't Bella's outright rejection of their beliefs?

For these people, this is the only thing that cannot be compromised and cannot be accepted......

Chris? Bella quickly realized this, but it was too late, she saw the naked dissatisfaction and anger from those who had always stared at her henchmen with the adoring gaze that made her feel intoxicated, but the panicked Chris? Bella, there is no way to remedy her mistakes.

And at this moment, the old woman holding her daughter's human skin in her hand hesitated to take a few steps forward, and after thinking twice, she still spoke: "Dear Chris? Mistress Bella, actually...... I can also feel that Anna, who is smiling at me behind Lord Rilin, is definitely her own soul, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with this, Anna's child, only when she is the happiest, will show her left half of her teeth, this is known only to me as a mother, my greatest god, since the end of the world came, I have not seen that child smile like this for many years...... Chris? Lord Bella, please believe me, after all, my daughter will never admit her mistake......"

After hearing such testimony, Chris? Bella's fingers and toes were cold......

Lilin had a solemn expression on his face, but the corners of his mouth were slightly tilted upward........., "It's time to give her the final blow......

Lilin thought of this, and then spoke: "The most devout believers of the supreme gods, do you know that outside this world, there is no end of the world......

Lilin's words really caused an uproar*, and Babu, a fanatic who had wanted to ask Lilin a question before, lowered his head at this time and said softly: "Sure enough, ......"

Due to the foreshadowing of Fang Cai, no matter what Li Lin said at this time, he would not surprise everyone too much......

"Like the four people there, we are actually from another world, a peaceful world shrouded in the glory of the Lord, where there are no demons, no witches, no endless dust in the air, and no monsters dare to kill in that world...... In fact, the end of the world did not happen for nothing, but he was only here...... In this land that belongs to Silent Hill, it happens...... And you're the only one living in the end times......"

"Chris? Bella, you deceived us, you told us that the whole world has perished, and only we have human beings here, but you see, so many outsiders have come here now, and when I see the clothes they are wearing, I already suspect that you all know, before the end of the world, I have always been a tailor, the best tailor in the town, I swear by the glory of my profession, the clothes on their bodies are all high-end clothes made in the past year, and now you come and tell me, How can a world that has been destroyed have a new high-end costume? "The one who raised the sharp question was none other than Báb, who had led the way before Ririn. Convinced that he already knew the truth, the middle-aged man roared furiously at the most respected archbishop ever.

"I ...... I...... These are all hallucinations, all of which are demonic methods to deceive us...... "It's just that at this moment, no one believes what she says anymore......

"Don't get excited, don't be blinded by anger, the Lord said, anger is also an original sin......" Now Lilin already has the deterrent power to calm the crowd with a few words, and in the minds of many fanatics, he has completely replaced Chris? Bella's place in everyone's minds.

"The Lord is merciful, and He treats His followers fairly, and how can the Lord, who have the most devout faith, be forgotten by the Lord...... Therefore, he has sent me here to guide you and redeem you, so follow me...... Believe me...... For only then will the glory of the Lord overcome all and shine again here......"

"And now...... We have something more important......"

"We ......"

"To Pray ......"

“Thefoesoftherighteouswillbecondemned.”

“Evilwillslaythewicked; thefoesoftherighteouswillbecondemned (Evil will kill the wicked; Whoever hates the righteous will be condemned.) ”

“……”

"Dear Savior, don't you really need protective clothing? Although its defense is very limited, it is better to have it than not to have ......."

One of the fanatics removed the heavy and ugly hazmat suit from the winch rope and said to Rilin. They are planning to go to the underground hospital where the archdemon Teresa is hiding, because only there will Rilin be able to find what he needs...... Uh, that's right, it's the stockings that the swollen-faced nurse was wearing......

Of course, Rielin would never tell the fanatics his true purpose, and even if he did, he would only be perceived as a "humorous" man......

Therefore, the excuse used by Rilin is to go alone to expel the archdemon Teresa so that the people trapped here can return to the real world. ..., his proposal was undoubtedly welcomed by everyone, but unfortunately they had nothing else to give, so in the end they only gave away the title of "savior". Although it doesn't have any practical value, it also makes Lilin, who likes to draw fresh, feel a little interesting......

Speaking of which, these protective suits are made of leather, which are made of different colors, different thicknesses, and shapes, which are spliced together from a variety of leather materials in the east and west, which can be said to be difficult to see a realm......

These protective suits are usually hung in front of the windows of the cathedral, and they are more or less contaminated with some power of faith, and it is precisely because of this that these protective suits have the ability to resist the acid of the "man in the suit", and they also have a certain protective effect against the attacks of several other weaker monsters, but Lilin can ask about the smell of this clothing from fifty meters away, and then look at the extremely ugly and extremely suffocating design, Lilin has no intention of trying to wear it on his body at all.

"Thank you for your kindness, Adam, but I don't need this—" Lilin smiled and declined.

"So, can I put it on?".

A female voice suddenly sounded beside Lilin, and it was Ruth, the heroine of the plot, who spoke. She stood there, then unceremoniously took the suit and slipped it on her body.

And her husband Silva, who was standing beside her, immediately frowned and said, "Ruth, you don't have to go there, you have to believe Mr. Lilin, he is an expert, and you have seen his magical powers with your own eyes, they are very magical...... Please believe that he will bring Sharon back to us. ”

"I know...... My dear ......" Although she replied so, Ruth's maternal love and stubbornness were not mixed with any water, and she said without any room for negotiation: "But, Sharon she needs me, I know, she must be there waiting for me, so I must go." ”

"Alright then......" The tall man let out a long sigh and turned to the hazmat keeper named Adam, "Mr. Adam, could you please lend me one too?" ”。

Adam turned his head to look at Lilin, who thought for a moment before nodding his head, and Adam took a new hazmat suit off the shelf.

"What do you want to do, dear?" Ruth shouted anxiously, "You don't have to go down, it's dangerous there"

"I know, I ......know very well," the man nodded resignedly, and said, "It's because I know very well how terrible those monsters are, that I can't let my lover go there alone." ”

"Honey, you ......"

"Mr. Adam, could you please get two more suits?" Inspector Gucci also came over and said, "As a police officer collecting taxpayers' taxes, Sybil and I can't watch the victims go to find their missing children while we do nothing." ”

……

"It's good, it's getting more and more lively...... "Lilin thought ......,
