Chapter 135 False Miracles

Wu Chang asked Han Er, "Have you seen their miracle of coming back to life?"

"I often see them perform for believers almost every month." Haner's tone was flat, but Wu Chang could vaguely hear some dissatisfaction in it.

"Do you think they are really coming back to life?" Wu Chang continued to ask.

Han Er is an old gravekeeper and has close ties with the Soul Light Sect, so he must know a lot of secrets.

Speaking of resurrection, Haner's tone became complicated. He looked at the holy table in front of him, but it seemed that he was talking about more than just the ceremony on the holy table.

"It's not that easy to cross the line between life and death. If it were that easy, those poor souls who long for immortality wouldn't have turned into half-human, half-ghost monsters, wandering around the cemetery at night."

Wu Chang nodded, thinking that this kid had such a deep understanding, he must have suffered a great loss at the hands of the Soul Light Church, he would find a chance to inquire about him later.

The ceremony in the church continued.

A middle-aged believer with a gray face walked out of the crowd with the help of several nuns.

The middle-aged believer had a pale face, his hair was as dry as grass, he was so thin that only skin and bones were left, and his eye sockets were so sunken that passers-by were afraid that his eyes would fall out. With every step he took, he would gasp violently, and those who passed by felt they could not breathe just by listening to him.

If this kind of person were to exist in real life, Wu Chang wouldn't dare fast forward the video even if he was watching it through the screen, for fear that if he sped up the video, the guy's body wouldn't be able to bear it and he would die inside his phone.

The resurrection ceremony was presided over by the Pope of the Soul Light Sect himself. The Pope looked extremely young, no more than thirty years old, with a gentle temperament. He looked more like a young scholar than the Pope of a major sect.

Although the Pope is young, he has a tough job. Whether it is establishing the Soul Light Sect or presiding over prayers, he has done an impeccable job and has a very high reputation among believers.

As the Pope appeared, the believers became more frantic, shouting the Pope's title loudly.

The Fire Saint.

It means the person who holds the fire of the soul.

Zhang Huo smiled and signaled to the believers. After a short sermon, he estimated that the middle-aged man's time was almost up, so he took out a silver dagger and cut open the middle-aged man's clothes.

The middle-aged man was as thin as a skeleton, but his belly was as big as that of a pregnant woman. Under his stretched skin, one could vaguely see worms like blood vessels moving around in his body.

It was obvious that he was infected with extremely serious parasites and was already terminally ill. With the medical conditions in the Kingdom of Mikel, he could not be cured at all. Faced with such a patient, the only advice given by the doctors was to go to Serina and spend the last period of his life in peace.

The man lay on the holy table, somewhat at a loss. Although the palm fire kept asking him to relax, close his eyes, and sense the presence of the gods, he still closed his eyes reluctantly.

The man was well aware of his condition. Once he closed his eyes, there was a high possibility that he would never be able to see the world again.

But gradually, his eyelids began to grow heavy and consciousness began to leave him, and the man's labored breathing became quiet as the man's chest stopped rising and falling.

He died on the Holy Table.

But the next moment, a flame rose from under the holy table and enveloped the man's body.

No matter how many times they have seen it, the believers in the church could not help but exclaim when they saw this scene. Even Wu Chang could not help but let out a light exclamation.

He was not surprised by the miracle itself, but because he knew the flame that came out, and was very familiar with it.

That is Suihuo!

How could the Suihuo in the Sui Sui Ping An dungeon appear in the Midnight Cemetery dungeon?

That's not right. The plane numbers of these two copies are different, and they don't share the same world view. He quickly realized that in the Sui Sui Ping An copy, the Sui Fire of Huaigu Village came from the Four-Direction Sui Fire Lantern. Where did the Four-Direction Sui Fire Lantern come from?
It was a passing scholar who saw that the New Year's Eve ceremony was out of control, so he specially rearranged the New Year's Eve formation and left behind four New Year's Eve lanterns.

At the end of the Sui Sui Ping An dungeon, he thought that the scholar who arranged the Sui Fire was played by Chi Yuan, but Chi Yuan denied it. At first, he was surprised that ordinary players could be willing to give the powerful Four-Directions Sui Fire Lamp to the NPC.

Now it seems that the scholar who is causing trouble in Huaigu Village is most likely a member of the Ningjing Sect, and may even be the Fire Master!
It goes without saying that since he took away the Four-Sided Sui-Huo Lamp that controls the fire, the other party must be holding a grudge against him and trying to take the treasure back.

An enemy hiding in the dark is definitely a hidden danger. When the Miracle Stone fulfills his wish, it won't include this guy.

The Miracle Stone seemed to be much more capable than he had imagined.

After discovering that the Soul Light Sect used the Suihuo, the so-called miracle of resurrection was no longer mysterious.

The Fire Master simply took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and used the Fire of the Year to keep the middle-aged man alive, then violently removed all the parts with parasites, and then used recovery potion to regrow his flesh and blood.

A bottle of recovery potion that can quickly regenerate flesh and blood is worth about 3000 Corrupted Silver Coins. It seems expensive, but compared to creating a miracle, the price is much smaller.

While Zhanghuo was treating the man, it was not known whether it was intentional or the treatment was incomplete, but the man was not completely saved. Although white vitality appeared in his body, it was very weak and mixed with the black energy representing death, turning into gray.

The black, white and gray gases in the bodies of believers who were resurrected through miracles are in a strange state of balance.

Wu Chang could see it clearly, but the other believers could not. They shouted the name of the Fire Master loudly, and the situation was almost out of control.

Wu Chang asked Irene in a low voice: "Did you see anything?"

Irene's eyes turned a light golden color as she carefully observed the middle-aged man who was crawling on the ground and kissing Palm Fire's feet madly.

After a moment, she said in confusion: "During the ceremony, I didn't feel any fluctuations of magic power. In my perception, the man didn't even really come back to life, but he had consciousness and didn't have the decaying smell of death..."

"If it were you, could you save these people?" Wu Chang asked.

Irene shook her head. "Light magic can heal injuries and purify negative states, but it cannot cure diseases or prolong a person's life. I think the so-called miracle of resurrection is just an illusion. Before long, the man will die again."

After Irene finished speaking, Haner beside her trembled, as if these words touched him.

After the miracle ceremony, the three of them visited the Soul Light Church again. While others were not paying attention, Wu Chang released his spirit to explore the Soul Light Church inside and out.

When the opportunity is right, he is confident that he can wipe out this quiet church hideout in a short period of time.

The only drawback is that some of the secret rooms are shrouded in mystical power and his spirit cannot break in, so he needs to think of another way.

After coming out of the Soul Light Cathedral, Wu Chang accompanied Irene to stroll around the city for a while, and then they took a public carriage back to the cemetery before the sun set.

Their timing was perfect; when they returned to the gravekeeper's cabin, the carriage carrying the corpses arrived.

The driver unloaded the body on the open ground, said hello to Haner and turned away, with no intention of helping to transport the body to the chapel.

There were seven bodies transported in this batch. Wu Chang took a quick look and his eyes stopped on the seventh body.

Through the body bag, he could see the black, white and gray energies inside the deceased's body.

In Serina, this condition only occurs in people who have undergone the resurrection ritual.

Irene was right. The believers who had been resurrected would soon die again and enter this cemetery.
