Chapter 103 Hidden Path: Man-Made God

The illusion that just appeared before Wu Chang's eyes recreated the scene that happened in the Earl's manor that day.

After killing Irene, the townspeople, whose jealousy had subsided, fell into endless regret and self-blame.

At this time, Ebert said something to the townspeople, which successfully made them transfer their anger to Earl Jermaine.

Ebert's words simply told the townspeople that Jermaine was behind everything and they were just being used.

It doesn't matter whether the statement is reasonable or not; what matters more is that the townspeople are willing to believe it.

When it comes to religion, it's all about psychological comfort. As long as there's a big shot telling you that he has forgiven you on behalf of the Lord, then everything can be treated as if nothing had happened.

Otherwise, why have indulgences been popular for nearly a thousand years, with various variations still popular today, and supporting various environmental protection and human rights organizations?
A suitable scapegoat is undoubtedly the best atonement for the townspeople.

Under the resonance of inexplicable emotions, all the emotions accumulated in the past burst out.

People took up weapons, gathered together, broke into the Earl's manor, which people usually dared not even look at, and dragged Jermaine in front of everyone to execute him.

Because of this, Jermaine died under the statue and turned into an arrogant messenger of God before the seven inner worlds matured and the proof of original sin was born.

"The player has completed the second main mission: Investigate the missing earl and find the truth."

"Since the player has collected all the evidence of the seven original sins and successfully explored all the truths, the player can end the dungeon early and leave the quiet town."

Wu Chang chose no without any hesitation.

Oh, after spending so much time, the harvest time has finally come, but now there is no way to let him go!

The prompt for completing the second main mission confirmed that the illusion was not a fabrication of God's messenger, but a real event.

But looking back following the information in the illusion, a figure inevitably appears again.

It was Ebert again.

As the guy with the lowest presence on the island, why does it feel like he is everywhere at important points in the plot?
Fortunately, we killed this old Deng, otherwise who knows what kind of evil he would do.

Just as he was thinking about what to do next, a voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Mr. Sykes, what happened just now?" Irene asked in confusion.

After she came back to life, perhaps after being deprived of her original sin, her soul was damaged. She could only realize what had just happened, but could not be sure what had happened.

Wu Chang said nonchalantly: "It's just a bug that was killed. Don't worry about it. What comes next is the highlight of tonight."

He pointed to the roof and asked, "Can you see anything up there?"

Erin shook her head.

"Then you stay down there for now. Once I have dealt with her, you will be freed."

Wu Chang picked up a wooden stick and drew a circle on the ground.

"It will be dangerous outside. I drew this circle, which is as strong as a copper wall and iron barrier to keep those demons and monsters away. But if you step out of the circle, you will be killed. Remember this."

After saying that, without caring whether Irene understood what was happening or not, he turned and walked towards the roof of the main house.

He reached the rooftop and carefully approached the huge faceless nun in front of him.

Just now, when he deliberately lowered his will and allowed the murmur of prayer to enter his mind, the murmur of prayer brought a hint.

"Hidden side quest triggered."

"Hidden side quest: Place the evidence of the seven original sins into the artificial statue, complete the fallen statue, summon the artificial god, and witness immortality. There is no penalty for failure. Do you want to accept the quest?"

Another hidden side quest.

Compared to the hidden side quests brought by the Perfectionist title, the prerequisite tasks for completing the artificial statue have been completed. You only need to insert the Certificate of Original Sin to complete the task and receive the reward.

It can be said that it is almost a free reward.

If it was at the beginning of the copy, he would accept it without hesitation.

But now that he had seen the truth, he hesitated.

Forget it, let's take a step by step.

He shook his head and walked up to the Faceless Nun.

The Faceless Nun was like a puppet waiting for orders, standing quietly in place without any desire to attack.

Of course, it is also possible that Wu Chang inherited the identity of the arrogant envoy, causing her to automatically identify him as one of his own.

As Wu Chang gathered his inspiration, he saw a hexagram inside the huge nun's body. There was a hole in each of the six corners and the central area of ​​the hexagram. The seven holes corresponded to the seven evidences of original sin.

Wu Chang filled the holes with the evidence of the seven original sins in the order of the seven original sins in religion.

The first one is the evidence of lust.

Wu Chang said that this is how religious doctrines are written, and he did not do this out of his personal interest.

As the evidence of lust filled the hole, the cold body of the Faceless Nun began to have some fleshy texture and looked more alive.

The rough, root-like lower body below the waist turned into smooth, long legs, plump and white as jade.

The only problem is that the Faceless Nun's lower body has hundreds of roots.

White legs are beautiful, but if there are suddenly hundreds of white legs in front of you, it’s not a question of beauty, but whether you will lose your SAN.

Even a tough guy like Wu Chang, who had seen the collection of the fourth roommate and whose willpower was close to 70 points, could not stand it.

Just as he was thinking about whether to dig out the certificate of lust or trim the legs in front of him to only two, the Faceless Nun wisely turned the legs back into roots, saving him a lot of effort.

As the evidence of lust was completed, a one-sixth golden halo appeared on the head of the Faceless Nun.

The shape of the halo is similar to the halo on the head of an angel in mythology.

Wu Chang had a hunch that the thing was the holy mark that had previously resided in Irene's body.

He continued to take out the certificate of gluttony and put it into the body of the Faceless Nun.

The Faceless Nun's body trembled, and then the back of her uniform was torn, revealing a pair of golden flying fish-like wings.

Wu Chang: “…”

No, which genius came up with the idea of ​​replacing the angel's wings with shark fins?
Although they all have wings and can fly, and I can understand that it is indeed difficult to find suitable wings, but isn’t this plan a bit too hasty?

Not to mention the low-spec beggar's version, even the poorest of beggars wouldn't make do with this.

Forget it, just treat it as eating golden flying fish.

He glanced at the halo on the Faceless Nun's head that was now one third complete, and injected the Certificate of Greed into the nun's body.

The nun's body began to emit a faint light, and a faint black mist appeared on the surface of the half-completed halo.

As the fourth certificate of laziness was filled into the nun's body.

The nun's tense body suddenly relaxed, and the halo above her head was filled to two-thirds, and the entire halo had turned light black.

With the addition of the fifth certificate of wrath and the sixth certificate of jealousy, the Faceless Nun looks no different from a human except that she still has no face.

Even if you observe carefully with inspiration, you can feel from her blank face that she is angry, jealous, greedy, and expecting something.

The halo above the nun's head is completely complete, different from the golden halo that represents the gods, or the red or white halo that represents angels and saints.

The halo above her head at this moment was pure black.

The light was dim and restrained, as if it was restrained by something and temporarily unable to radiate outward.

Wu Chang took out the last Certificate of Pride. As the greatest original sin, the Certificate of Pride was undoubtedly in the C position.

As long as it is placed in the center of the hexagram in the Faceless Nun's body, the artificial fallen statue can be completed, everything inside the statue can be activated, and the advent of the artificial god can be completed.

He took a deep breath and slowly moved the Certificate of Pride in his hand closer to the Faceless Nun.

The Faceless Sister showed great desire. She ignored her reserve and moved forward slightly, actively moving towards the Certificate of Pride.

Just as the Certificate of Pride was about to penetrate into the body of the Faceless Nun, Wu Chang suddenly pulled his hand back and took the Certificate of Pride back.

Hey, no.
The Faceless Nun was stunned for a moment, and then she seemed to understand something. Her originally empty face actually showed facial features in her rage.

The high nose bridge, the eagle-like sharp eyes, the angular face, the absolute pressure from the aura, once seen, will never be easily forgotten.

That was the face that belonged to Count Germaine.

"Damn ant! How dare you fool the gods! I will make you ..."

Before Count Jermaine started to lose his temper and utter harsh words, Wu Chang's true self had transformed into a giant whale. With one hand, he ripped off the black halo on Count Jermaine's head, and with the other hand, he slapped him hard in the face.

"I told you, kid, if you dare to let me see you in the Earl's manor, you will definitely suffer the consequences! I must pull off your hood and slap you in the face!"

"I, Sycos, always keep my word!"
