Chapter Twenty-Seven: Necessary Evil

At the will of the Lord, all the people in the gathering place came to the room where the idol was located.

Everyone was lined up in four rows, and Catherine was carried to the idol, and at the front was their leader, Mamba.

Once everyone had arrived, the Mamba began the ritual by placing the sigil on the idol's chest and then placing the dagger on the idol's helmet.

As the stamp was soaked in blood, Mamba took it off and came to Catherine, who was still unconscious.

The "Lord" took control of his hand and pressed the blood stamp to Catherine's forehead.

Then everyone is out of the Lord's control.

……

"Lord...... Why do you want to forcibly control this ritual? Fran's eyes were filled with confusion, the meaning of this ritual was completely different from usual.

The Mamba silently put away the ceremonial dagger and stamp, and at the end only one sentence came out: "This is the will of the Lord, and do not tempt the Lord." ”

"Maybe this means ......" The tea end on the side suddenly spoke, "Who to join us in the future must be decided by the Lord himself." ”

The Mamba did not answer positively: "All this is the will of the Lord." He looked at the end of the tea: "Go and fetch water for the Lord to clean." ”

……

Tang Hao finally chose to do it himself, since he is the "god" in the minds of all team members, then he naturally has to shoulder his own responsibilities.

You can't let your subordinates carry the black pot, he can sit back and enjoy the results.

Besides, Tang Hao is not like the Mamba they thought, he can really control the unlimited population at will.

His own attribute column clearly reads: "14/200", and the maximum population limit is 200.

In addition to the fact that followers must be carefully selected, it is better to perform rituals to force them to believe in themselves, and this "necessary evil" is better done by themselves.

After making up his mind, Tang Hao had no obstacles in his heart,

Watching Cha Mo walk into the room with a smile on his face, Tang Hao felt a chill on his back, this girl should not pretend to be public and private, and take the opportunity of cleaning the idol to do wrong to herself.

"Hehehe, Lord, let me help you clean it~~" Cha Mo's eyes smiled into a line, and her vigorous posture almost rushed towards Tang Haofei......

……

After some time, Catherine woke up in a daze.

The first thing she did when she opened her eyes was to hold down her arm, the shocker was always in a state ready to be activated, ready to activate if in danger.

"Are you awake?" Fran and her daughter, Armand, who had been staying by Catherine's side, asked when she saw her move.

Catherine jumped to her feet, shrunk into a corner against the wall, stared at Fran and asked, "You...... Are you from that expedition? Where is this? ”

Fran comforted her, "This is our gathering place, you came to us for help after you were injured, do you remember this?" ”

Catherine frowned and thought for a while, she only remembered that she had encountered another expedition team, and the other party took advantage of her unpreparedness and suddenly attacked her, and after being injured, she fled all the way, and finally ......

She couldn't remember exactly how she ended up here.

Mamba, who rushed to hear the news, approached Catherine: "How is it?" Is the injury healed? ”

Catherine barely remembers seeing his face before she fell unconscious: "You saved me?" ”

The Mamba waved his hand again and again: "No, it wasn't me who saved you, it was the Lord who saved you!" ”

"Lord?" Catherine looked confused, this word was probably the first time she had heard it.

"That's right!" Mamba said righteously: "You were very seriously injured at that time, we had no way to revive you, it was the Lord's grace that brought you back to life, all of this is the Lord's will!" ”

He didn't directly state Catherine's current situation, but poured into her the concept of "Lord" in advance.

Catherine looked at her body, and she felt that she was going to die after being hit by the group of people one after another.

And now, she couldn't even find a single wound or even a scar on her body, as if she hadn't been injured at all.

The current situation, for Catherine, is indeed very magical.

She shook Mamba's hand with great gratitude: "The will of this 'Lord' is truly miraculous, please be sure to bring me over to express my gratitude to him." ”

Mamba said kindly, "The Lord is everywhere, you have felt the gift of the Lord, and from now on you will be our own." ”

What he said was so misty that Catherine didn't understand it for a while: "Who are you talking about?" ”

The Mamba nodded and said, "The Lord is the Lord, the Lord sees everything and arranges everything, and the will of the Lord is our goal." ”

"Since you have not yet felt the will of the Lord, then I will take you to meet the projection of the Lord in the world."

The Mamba then led her to the idol: "You just need to pray earnestly and the eyes of the Lord will rest on you." ”

Catherine, as a nomadic trader, traveled far and wide and knew that some of the congregations had strange religious cults.

But today's situation is a bit beyond her imagination.

Listening to Mamba's description, this "Lord" they worship can really affect the real world, for example, to heal her serious injuries?

Is there really a "god" in this world?

Catherine did not believe in the existence of "God" in her heart, otherwise the world would not have degenerated into what it is now.

All people, rich and poor, spend their lives like rats in the sewers, living on garbage and corpses.

Even if "God" weren't merciful, He wouldn't let His people live in a garbage heap, would he?

Looking at Mamba's earnest gaze, Catherine had no choice but to kneel in front of the idol and pray symbolically.

"My lord, I hope you can guide me, a lost child......"

……

After Catherine became a follower, Tang Hao could directly browse her attribute panel, and her skill descriptions were also explained in detail.

Spatial Transport, which replaces the relative spatial position of two areas.

This skill comparable to teleportation, just by looking at the description, you can know how perverted it is.

It is almost certain that Catherine was able to escape from those enemies by relying on this powerful skill

The "Subspace Backpack" allows you to place items in a subspace that is in a state of time standstill.

It may be that this special ability, "Subspace Backpack", causes the inventory on Catherine's panel to remain "hidden", but it is unknown how large it is.

This is also a perverted ability, which can store a large number of items without affecting movement, and can ensure that food does not spoil when it stands still.
