Chapter 266 God Advent
Chapter 266 God Advent
Okay, let me first briefly summarize the current situation.
Vanessa Castle is backed by a cliff and faces the savanna. It is centered on a huge bell tower. The family cemetery of the Frimmisret family is located behind the bell tower.
After reuniting in the castle, Geza and Auror and his wife wandered around for a few more times, learned the rules of the game in the castle, and witnessed the deaths of other players. In confusion, they gradually lost confidence in escaping from here, believing that they must have been rejected by God and banished to this devil's realm.
Ordinary people in religious countries are generally ignorant, or it can be said that there are few normal people among those who believe in religion.
In the early 2000s, several Catholic missionaries came to Ning Zhe’s hometown, Gubei Town. Chen Yaming’s uncle was deceived into believing in God. After listening to their sermons several times, he became superstitious. Before every meal, he would face the table and thank God for giving him food to fill his stomach.
Then he was beaten severely by his own father, an old farmer, with a pair of tongs, who cursed him as he was beating him, saying, "You are an unfilial son. You eat the rice I grow and you don't thank me. You should thank God for it."
Then those missionaries were driven away by neighbors who complained to the village committee, causing Ningzhe's grandmother to have to go to the next village if she wanted to get free eggs because there was no church in this town.
Geza and Oral are a typical white Catholic family. Both husband and wife have a devout belief in God. The way of thinking of religious people is fundamentally different from that of people who have been educated in materialism since childhood.
Therefore, after accidentally entering the castle and witnessing all kinds of strange and bizarre phenomena, Auror, as a wife, did not try to think about finding the rules, nor did she try to work with her husband to find a way to escape. She chose to... ask God for forgiveness.
Ning Zhe's mind flashed through the last memory of Auror before her death.
Sadness, despair, guilt, determination... It was in the lecture room with huge paintings hanging on the wall. Auror knelt on the red carpet and pierced her heart with a cross iron spear carved with thorn patterns, praying to the Almighty God to forgive her husband and children with her death.
After his wife's death, the heartbroken Geza collected her remains and planned to bury them in the cemetery behind the bell tower.
Then Ning Zhe descended upon her.
Ning Zhe found that he really couldn't understand the way these religious people thought, and he was too lazy to understand.
But now one thing is certain.
"When I passed by the execution grounds before, I found the body of another player who was killed by a ghost on the guillotine. The player's name was 'Reiner Fafnir'. His body was the same as those invisible weirdnesses. It was usually invisible and would only become visible under the light."
Reiner's body, which was killed by a demon, cannot be seen or touched, and can only be found by lighting an oil lamp.
However, the body of Auror, who committed suicide, could be put into a coffin by her husband and could also be summoned by Ningzhe.
The different ways of death result in different states of death for the two.
Geza hugged Ningzhe's shoulders tightly and cried, "We succeeded, Aurore, your piety really won the Lord's forgiveness..."
"Yes, Geza, the Lord has forgiven us." Ning Zhe smiled and patted his shoulder, with no expression of joy or sadness on his face.
Witnessing his wife's suicide and resurrection, Geza has regarded this as a miracle on the same level as Jesus' resurrection. His originally desperate mental state quickly improved, as if everything had a purpose. It seems that religion is not really completely useless. Although five fish and two loaves of bread cannot fill the stomachs of the poor, they can provide a spiritual pillar for these desperate people to cheer up.
"Father, we will definitely be able to get out..." Gezza let go of his wife's shoulders, picked up the thorn cross iron spear that Aurore used to commit suicide from the ground, his eyes full of determination.
Ning Zhe pulled Geza's hand and climbed up from the ground, and asked: "Tell me, Geza, if I don't come back to life, what are you going to do after burying me?"
Geza bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then said, "It is difficult to make such a decision, but... I actually thought about leaving this world with you and seeking God's forgiveness."
Looking at Geza's determined eyes, Ning Zhe frowned slightly.
It is known that if he had not descended into Aurore's body and if there had not been the miracle of Jesus' resurrection, Geza would most likely have committed suicide in this cemetery. This is how things were supposed to develop.
But if Geza was dead in the cemetery, why was he in the library?
"So what are you going to do next?" Ning Zhe asked directly, "Are you going to find a way out? Or?"
Ning Zhe didn't care about his abrupt questions and stiff tone. No matter how abnormal his behavior was and how inconsistent it was with Auror's character and personality, Gaiza, who had already been ideologically stamped, would not doubt his identity.
Rules are absolute and rules are unshakable.
Geza thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps we can go to Grand Duchess Vanessa's bedroom. It is said that this duchess was a master of architectural design during her lifetime. This castle was her own work, so her room should still have the design drawings of this castle."
——Grand Duchess Vanessa’s bedroom is on the third floor of the bell tower. If you want to go up, you need to pass through the lobby on the first floor where countless ghosts roam, and the large corridor full of dangers. It can be said that it is a life-and-death experience.
But his wife's resurrection gave Geza full confidence. He believed that he and Aurore had been blessed by God, and that having been forgiven, they would be able to overcome the obstacles of the devil and reach their destination safely.
As long as we find Grand Duchess Vanessa's castle design, we may be able to find the specific location of the so-called secret basement from the developer's drawings.
Ning Zhe noticed the change in Geza's mentality and felt a slight movement in his heart.
So, Geza was looking for the castle design drawings in the library?
Ning Zhe immediately sorted out the cause and effect relationship:
"There are ghosts wandering in the bell tower, so Geza didn't dare to try to climb up the bell tower, and naturally couldn't enter the library next to the city lord's bedroom. But his wife's resurrection gave him the confidence to take the risk, and the person who caused his wife's 'resurrection'... was me."
So, it was me, as his wife, who helped Geza successfully climb up the bell tower and enter the library to find the developer's drawings?
And then I was the one who "descended" onto Gazza and killed him behind the library door?
Is the speed of time different on the first and third floors of the clock tower? Or is it simply that my consciousness "descended" to two different time points one after another?
After figuring out the key points, Ning Zhe was a little surprised for a moment. The development of this matter was somewhat beyond his expectations.
