Chapter 167 Morning Flowers
Chapter 167 Morning Flowers
Jessica exclaimed:
"Have you thought it through? You wouldn't...really have such an amazing experience, right? And do you really believe me?"
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Combined with my special experience, I don't need to be like Wenrenjing. I can also judge whether your words are true or false."
"I have had this experience, but there may be risks. However, since I'm here, I plan to give it a try."
Although Jessica spoke seriously about the method for the priest...she did place her hopes on the tower climbers.
But when she actually heard the tower climber say this, she still found it hard to believe.
"You mean, you've defeated... someone who could defeat a priest?"
"No, it's violence, evil deeds, and bullying. Do you understand? The weak can actually bully the strong. Just like, you are not as powerful as Wen Ren Jing, but you can sleep with him, and he suffers and loses his virginity. This is also a kind of violence." Wen Xishu said.
Jessica nodded:
"Good... that makes sense."
"Right, our goal is to summon that person, but isn't it up to us to decide what kind of behavior will lead to his being summoned?" Wen Xishu patiently instructed the Honkai Impactor.
Jessica nodded:
"That makes perfect sense! You're right. Maybe I should go far away and continue to sleep with other powerful men!"
"Ah?" Wen Xishu didn't expect that Jessica understood it this way.
"How soon can we start dealing with the priest?" Wen Xishu asked again.
"It can be done right now. I'll make the first move. I've already thought of how to attract the priest's attention and help you successfully enter the realm." Jessica said excitedly.
Wen Xishu nodded:
"By the way, I have to tell you something. Once I defeat the priest... it will be a good ending for everyone. But it also means that your cycle is over."
"You will no longer enjoy the privileges of a Honkai Impact 3rd. Even so, do you still want to kill the priest?"
Jessica sighed:
"Kill. I told you, I am a good person now. Believe it or not, I really want to kill that pastor. The purpose is nothing else but to uphold justice."
……
……
Four p.m.
The stone walls were stained with a warm golden color, and the pointed cross stood quietly in the twilight.
Two figures have appeared in the church.
Jessica had forgotten how many times she had come here.
Church, prayer room.
The wooden benches were arranged neatly. On the altar in front, a cross stood quietly. On both sides were several bunches of fresh white lilies, and the fragrance of flowers and the scent of incense were intertwined.
The sun shines through the stained glass windows high up. The figure under the cross speaks slowly:
"Jessica, why are you here?"
The priest had an easygoing expression.
He was dressed in a simple black robe with a silver cross hanging on his chest. His hair was already gray and neatly combed back.
The pastor's eyes were light grey, gentle and deep, as if he could see through people's hearts, yet with endless tolerance and comfort.
Jessica came up to the priest and then walked to the foot of the cross.
The pastor was puzzled, but his gaze shifted with Jessica's arrival.
Meanwhile, Jessica said:
"Your power continues to affect the people around you. Everyone here is going crazy because of you. They repeat the cycle of evil and are harvested by you over and over again."
"You disgusting guy, you don't really think that you are an angel who purifies others, do you?"
"Bah, old man, guess who I killed recently? He spilled all his secrets!"
Jessica tested this set of lines several times. In the past cycles, Jessica found that as long as she said this, the priest would feel curious.
"Jessica, what are you talking about? Who did you meet?" The pastor's eyes widened.
The kindness disappeared in an instant, and a sense of viciousness emerged.
Jessica says:
"Purify me if you can, old man. You are the source of evil that has brought disaster to this town. Purify me if you can, or I will kill you and cook your flesh and eat it, hehe."
The priest opened his arms.
He really intended to purify Jessica. He intended to know what evil Jessica had done. He intended to make Jessica become kind and make Jessica reveal why Jessica knew that she was the culprit.
His voice was low:
"Jessica, you are guilty."
"I'm guilty of your mother."
Although the words were spoken wildly, Jessica was unable to move at this time.
A huge cross of light trapped Jessica, and black, swirling liquid appeared under Jessica's feet.
"Come on, Jessica, confess to me!"
As soon as she said this, Jessica's eyes immediately became cloudy. Those things in her consciousness seemed to break through the barrier between reality and story and were forcibly pulled out.
Many people come to confess to the pastor, but the pastor does not take those minor sins seriously. People just feel that they are healed by the pastor’s kind smile.
But only Jessica knew that those who were affected by evil thoughts would never feel remorse, and most of them were forced to repent.
The pastor's words "Confess to me" seemed to carry some kind of meaning that could not be disobeyed.
All of Jessica's evil thoughts seemed to materialize at this moment, and were instantly stuck by the black liquid under her feet. After being contained, she felt that a certain desire was leaving her body.
"I...I can't hurt the priest. I can't commit violence against people..."
This idea was implanted in my mind.
But the next second, past memories began to correct her view.
"No, this is not an act of violence. I am seeking justice!" As a Honkai Impactor, Jessica knew the past of the priest, so she could try to resist. She gritted her teeth and suggested to herself.
At this moment, Jessica's body was covered with black sticky liquid, as if she was covered by some monster's vomit.
Gradually, Jessica stopped struggling. She anchored her belief. As a person who had gone through many cycles, dying and being reborn with memories, Jessica could not be invaded so easily unless it was some sequence related to memory.
Her eyes became more determined. The black liquid seemed to penetrate into her body. At the same time, the black liquid suddenly emerged and a figure emerged.
The black liquid on the figure's body gradually faded away, revealing a perfect face.
Not only was his face perfect, but his body was also perfect. His long hair was dancing, and at that moment, it was like the birth of the Son of God.
"Jessica? Why am I here?"
Wenren Jing's voice appeared.
"Who is this?" The pastor was puzzled.
The process went smoothly, and at this moment the priest had visualized in Jessica's consciousness the victims of all her evil deeds.
By killing these victims, he will purify Jessica's "sin" and turn the sin into his own power, while also devouring the power of those victims.
This is indeed a perfect self-growth system.
But the pastor suddenly felt something was wrong. He didn't know this man.
But he had to admit...it was a perfect body.
It was said that priests liked to molest little boys, which he did not understand, but when he saw this man, he understood. "Whoever he is, just devour him!"
Wen Renjing's sudden appearance was really unexpected. All this was because of Wen Xishu's advice. There was no need to defeat the other party. It counted as having done evil, bullied, or teased.
In a sense, Jessica had teased Wen Ren Jing and taken advantage of him, so naturally she could summon Wen Ren Jing.
Although this trivial evil was not enough to satisfy the pastor.
But the priest could feel that by devouring this extremely handsome man, he might be able to gain other powers.
The pastor laughed and said:
"I see, this is your method. You want to use this person to defeat me!"
The Wenren Mirror, which was shaped by a mysterious force beyond reality, was indeed almost indistinguishable from the real Wenren Mirror. Even the memory was shaped.
"I see, I understand, Jessica."
Wenren Jing, who was simulated by the power of the priest, instantly judged the situation.
Wenrenjing said:
"Pastor, why do you continue to do evil?"
"You have actually seen me?" the pastor was surprised.
Wenrenjing said:
"It seems that after me, there are other cycles with higher scores that have overwritten my record."
Wenren Jing said something that the pastor couldn't understand.
The pastor didn't care. No matter who the person was, he would just kill him.
But the next moment, the pastor suddenly felt relaxed. He only felt that the handsome man exuded an aura that made it impossible for anyone to have any evil thoughts.
Afterwards, the kindness in the pastor's heart grew infinitely, and he even felt like letting the other person go.
Wenren Jing's desire sequence is so powerful that even beings at the level of priests can be affected.
At this moment, he seemed to care less about everything and just wanted to study philosophy seriously.
"Walk."
Wenren Jing uttered a word. At this time, the black liquid on Jessica's body had gradually faded away, and she regained her ability to move.
But Jessica was actually quite familiar with this scene.
She knew she couldn't leave.
Sure enough, Wen Ren Jing suddenly frowned.
His power of tranquility has reached the pinnacle. Although those who climb the Desire Tower only have strong mental defense capabilities, they may not be able to defeat even a normal person in the corresponding level of the Slaughter Tower...
But when it comes to Wenren Jing's level, few people can have bad thoughts towards him.
Next, something unexpected happened to Wenren Jing. Endless evil thoughts burst out in an instant.
At this moment, the evil that had been absorbed by the priest instantly and overwhelmingly destroyed Wen Ren Jing's calming power.
Evil thoughts happen to be the most common thing in priests.
In a sense, this is a natural nemesis of Wenrenjing.
"I will devour you completely."
The black liquid was driven again. The priest waved his hand, and the waves formed by the black liquid instantly enveloped Wenren Jing.
At this moment, the black liquid seemed to have become some kind of living thing and began to eat Wen Ren Jing's body.
"I'm sorry, Jessica, that's all I can do to help you. But fortunately...our mutual friend seems to have made it."
The black liquid instantly devoured more than half of the simulated Wenren Jing. The priest showed a satisfied expression, feeling that there was an unexpected surprise today.
Although Jessica's crimes were insignificant, the "victims" in Jessica's crimes were particularly important, and he could feel that his strength had obviously increased.
But then, the pastor's face froze. What did common friends mean?
He suddenly realized...
Wenren Jing was just feinting. Wenren Jing blocked his evil thoughts just to distract himself.
At this moment, there was another person in the prayer room.
Wen Xishu.
Wen Xishu kept repenting for his evil deeds in his mind, but in fact he was always worried about one thing...
He was worried that that horrible feeling would reappear, and that someone in the dark would target him again.
But this time, Scorpio's knife did not move.
The moment Wen Ren Jing appeared, he understood everything. Jessica had actually teamed up with Wen Xishu.
He had already sensed the familiar aura of Wen Xishu. In the Desire Tower, although Wen Renjing's combat ability was not strong, he had no shortcomings in other aspects.
In just a blink of an eye, Wenren Jing came up with a battle plan and began to attract the priest's attention.
Although he is a simulation of Wen Ren Jing, he can't help but sigh... Wen Xishu actually came here, his growth rate is really fast.
The priest's power is terrifying, perhaps because he comes from that place of origin, so he possesses one of the most ancient powers, a power that can modify reality.
But his strength is also his weakness.
Wen Xishu stepped on the black liquid and began to repent for his evil deeds.
He didn't care that Wen Ren Jing was actually whipped by Jessica. This woman was quite cruel. But he couldn't care about these things. He had to concentrate and constantly repent for his evil deeds.
I am guilty, I possessed the body of Wen Chaohua's brother. I have been investigating Wen Chaohua's secrets, and I have tried to find out everything that Wen Chaohua has hidden.
I'm guilty.
The black liquid began to invade Wen Xishu, affecting his mind. Although Wen Xishu was not a Honkai Impactor and did not have a cyclical memory to resist the priest's purification... after swallowing ten fingers, Wen Xishu, who was carrying the purple prop wooden fish, was not so easy to invade.
With Wen Xishu's willpower and the help of props, he finally completed his confession.
"So there's another person!"
The pastor turned around and saw Wen Xishu. At this time, Wen Xishu's heartbeat slightly accelerated.
It was not because of the priest, but because the black liquid began to surge, and the figure that Wen Xishu had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared.
Wen Xishu pointed behind the pastor:
"I can't beat a monster like you, but what about him?"
A huge pressure came, as if the gravity of the planet had suddenly changed, and the priest felt that everything was so heavy.
Can an omnipotent God create a being more powerful than God?
This philosophical paradox seemed to have an answer at this moment.
The priest turned around in surprise. His power to break the rules of reality created a being even more terrifying than his power.
"You are……"
The familiar voice suddenly awakened another soul in Wen Xishu's body.
"A small tree?"
The black liquid faded away, and the man's figure finally appeared.
On the other side, Wen Ren Jing, whose flesh was being eaten away by the black liquid and was about to be completely swallowed, suddenly made a move.
He was not Wenren Jing, but he was simulated and had all of Wenren Jing's memories and emotions. He tried to push away the black liquid that enveloped him, because he saw that familiar old friend.
"Chaohua!"
