Don't call me evil god

Chapter 122 Reading Comprehension Full Score
Pete frowned and pointed to a description in the letter and asked Miranda:

"Ms. Warren, look here."

"Bishop Sket told Dursley that he found two suitable messengers from among the cultists captured by the Crusaders and sent them to Dursley. Through the ritual they organized, people can be contaminated by the power of the evil god."

"Can we really quickly create a large number of evil gods' followers in this way?"

Miranda thought for a moment and answered uncertainly:
"In theory, if the ritual is performed correctly, a large number of mortals can be bewitched by evil and fall into depravity at the same time."

"But... it is impossible to just find an evil god in the void and then be contaminated by his power."

"It is actually more difficult to get a response from most evil gods than from righteous gods."

"The church's scriptures have concluded that evil gods are irrational and crazy beings. No one should be able to understand whether or not they will respond to mortals and when they will respond to mortals."

On the side of the righteous gods, as long as the required ceremonies are held in the corresponding churches, they will respond to you, just like entering the correct number to complete the dialing.

Evil gods are different. Not to mention that they seem to have no fixed way of calling. Many times, even if a ceremony is held, the response may be crazy ravings or meaningless shouting.

Miranda thought for a moment and added:

"In a situation like the Blood Fang Gang, it can actually be done."

"If the fallen ones keep praying to the evil god at the ceremony, maybe they will get his attention and response one day. At that time, if we bring everyone to the scene and let them be contaminated by the evil god's power, we can achieve the effect of contaminating everyone and turning them into his followers at once."

"As for the advent ceremony just now..." Miranda was silent: "It is actually a very cruel method."

"By making sacrifices at the ritual site, you can increase the possibility of attracting the evil god's attention."

"The Dursleys sacrificed nearly a hundred members of the Bloodfang Gang at one time, and they were all fallen people who had been infused with the power of the evil god, and only then did they succeed in getting noticed."

Pete nodded seriously.

"So, the Blood Fang Gang was bewitched by the evil god and fell into depravity. The direct reason was actually that the two messengers sent by Bishop Skate performed a related ceremony, which led to the contamination of the evil god, right?"

Miranda confirmed what Pete said.

"Then now comes the problem."

Pete pointed to his head, indicating the oracle message that everyone had received:

"The Lord reminded us that there is an evil threat in the Blood Roulette that has not yet been eliminated."

"Where are the two messengers hiding now?"

Everyone present was shocked.

With the effect of the [Status Display] skill, they confirmed when they looted the corpses in the casino lobby that those people were members of the Bloodfang Gang.

There were indeed no two messengers as mentioned in the letter.

Gail exclaimed, "A secret room or a secret passage!"

Then he said helplessly, "But we don't know anything about the situation here. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack to find the secret room."

Pete: "Who said we don't know anything about this place?"

"what?"

"Didn't the Lord provide us with a map?" Pete affirmed, "Professional matters should be left to professionals. The members of the Brotherhood of Stonemasons are all experts in architecture."

"Ask Mr. Moni to help analyze the layout of this place remotely. If there really is a secret room or secret passage, he will definitely be able to find clues from the structure of the map!"

The map information was sent to Old Moni through the instant messenger magic, and a response came a few minutes later.

[Moni: According to the map information, there is a space without an entrance next to the VIP room. It may be the secret room you are looking for! ]

Pete was overjoyed: "Check the VIP room carefully, there must be a trap or secret door!"

Brandon raised the crowbar in his hand: "Mr. Pete, I have an idea!" "What is it?"

Without saying a word, Brandon poured his anger into the crowbar and smashed it hard against the wall beside him!

"Bang!!!"

A loud bang!
The wall was hit hard and a noticeable crack appeared.

Pete's eyes twitched: "Stop, stop, stop!"

He shouldn't have believed that Brandon could come up with any clever ideas!

"This is underground! Are you trying to save your life? If the wall collapses, we will all be buried inside!"

"Can't you use your brain for a moment?"

Brandon said honestly, "I used my brain, and I think that breaking down the wall to find the secret room is the fastest way, right?"

Pete held his forehead and sighed, "Forget it. We can't count on you. Let's find a way ourselves."

Miranda was a little confused: "Can't we pray to the God of Knowledge and ask Him to tell us?"

Pete shook his head and explained:

"Ms. Warren, you may have just come into contact with the faith of the God of Knowledge and have not yet understood the true meaning of His teachings. He is different from other gods."

"The Lord's teachings guide us to gain strength and seek the truth through our own efforts."

“To demand answers directly goes against that doctrine.”

“The Lord gives us guidance, and only guidance.”

"He told us that there is still a threat from the evil god in the Blood Roulette. This means that we should rely on ourselves to find out the truth and solve all this."

"Otherwise, why doesn't the Lord just send down divine punishment and wipe this place out from the world? Wouldn't that solve everything?"

“What He wants to see is our efforts, not our prayers and miracles.”

Miranda recalled her experience after she believed in the God of Knowledge and found that it was true.

When she was locked up in the confinement room, she prayed to the God of Light in the hope that he would send down his power to save her, while she prayed to the God of Knowledge in the hope that he would guide her in the right direction and tell her what she should do to save herself!

Being rescued and saving oneself.

This is the biggest difference between the two.

She fell into a misconception at first, including having similar thoughts when she was fighting with Dursley, wondering why the God of Knowledge did not bestow power on the believers.

Now she understood.

"I understand! Thank you for your reminder!" Miranda thanked Pete earnestly: "It turns out that He is not unwilling to help His believers, but is using guidance to let us solve the problem ourselves!"

"You are right, the God of Knowledge is indeed a great god!"

In the Kingdom of God, Nowen, who was paying attention to the conversation between the believers, was deeply moved.

"Thanks for your reading comprehension, Pete!"

"That's good to understand. Please don't understand next time!"

This is a deviation from the "doctrine" that Norman had originally envisioned!
