Chapter 93: The Truth (4K large chapter, in )

Wu Chang stepped aside and let the woman outside the door enter the house.

The woman outside the door looked 80% similar to Morena, but her looks were more in line with Wu Chang's aesthetic. It's not an exaggeration to say that she was a better match for Morena.

The women not only look alike in expression, but also in speech and behavior. Even twins might not be so alike.

"Who are you?" Wu Chang asked puzzledly.

“Does it matter?” the woman asked.

Wu Chang said: "It is very important to me."

"You can just call me Morena. To you, there is no difference between me and her." The woman took off her coat, revealing the same pajamas as Morena.

Wu Chang sighed, thinking that this woman was really playing tricks, and he didn't know where she was going.

Is it a sister rice bowl or NTR?

But no matter how you play it, isn't it a bit too much to just use Morena's name?
The woman slowly approached Wu Chang and put her arms around his neck. Her movements were natural and there was no awkwardness in the atmosphere, as if she had seamlessly connected to the plot that was supposed to continue just now.

The fake Morena was not embarrassing, but Wu Chang found it hard to accept.

This is Morena's home. How could he and others do such a thing in her house?

He is a traditional man, and he has to do such things behind people's backs. It would be terrible if he was caught.

"Let's go somewhere else."

"Why? Don't you think it's more exciting here?"

Wu Chang's mouth twitched, and he really wanted to say, "You're so sexy."

Wearing Morena's pajamas, using Morena's name, and even choosing Morena's family as the battlefield, is Morena's nickname Pinru?
"Come with me."

Wu Chang took the woman away from Morena's house and walked all the way to the woods near the cathedral.

Looking off in the distance, you can see Morena investigating the scene.

"How about it, isn't this more exciting?"

The woman seemed to have received the signal and pounced on him, entangled with him.

After a passionate French kiss, the woman suddenly hugged Wu Chang and whispered in his ear, "Will you stay on this island?"

Wu Chang quoted the woman's previous response: "Does it matter?"

The woman said seriously, "It's very important. It will determine what happens next."

Wu Chang shrugged, "Of course not."

The woman looked disappointed, then she raised her hand to touch Wu Chang's cheek, but halfway through her hand, her movements froze.

Wu Chang pulled the woman off him and asked with a smile, "Did you lose control of your body? As a messenger of God, this feeling is rare, right?"

The woman showed an incredible look on her face. She wanted to speak, but found that the paralysis started from her mouth.

Her tongue was numb and she couldn't even swallow, let alone make a sound.

She looked at Wu Chang, as if asking, how did you know and what did you do.

Wu Chang opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue. A hollow hole could be seen at the base of his tongue.

"Have you ever heard of soul poison? Are you surprised or not?"

"Talent Skill: Snake Venom"

"Skill Description: In the Ocean Family state, your energy attribute increases by 50%, and you can convert energy into soul toxins. Targets hit by snake venom will lose control of their bodies, become poisoned, and receive continuous toxic damage. The damage value and duration are affected by the user's energy and inspiration attributes, respectively."

"Soul Toxin: A special toxin targeting intelligent life. The toxin reaches the soul directly. Energy bodies and fleshless life forms are not immune to it."

Although Wu Chang's original body's transformation into a sea snake is not as simple and crude as his true self's transformation into a giant whale, it also does not have an extremely high upper limit that allows for infinite stacking of attributes.

But in terms of the effect, it is not in vain at all.

It is especially effective against those who think they are special and are defenseless against him.

For example, the messenger of God in front of him, in front of other people, she is almost immortal, but when faced with Wu Chang's soul poison, she will lose control after taking a bite.

Seeing the fear in the woman's eyes, as if she was ready to run away, Wu Chang grabbed the woman's hand and took out the certificate of jealousy with his other hand.

"Elbow, come into the house with me!"

He pulled hard and brought the woman into the portal leading to the Church of Jealousy.

It was like a pillow being delivered to him when he was sleepy. Just when he was worrying about where to find the last three other worlds, lust suddenly came to him.

What's even more outrageous is that when he was approached, he was still carrying fresh resentment.

The resentment of the bald man from the Ironclad Regiment.

This was too polite. Not only did he travel thousands of miles to send a head, but he was also afraid that the other party wouldn't be able to accept it, so he sent the strategy guide as well.

This matter has become so serious that it would be inappropriate for him not to accept it.

He has always been curious about what would happen if a messenger of God entered the other world of other messengers of God.

Now he knows the answer.

They will lose the authority of God's messenger and become an ordinary being.

In fact, it makes sense if you think about it. The seven inner worlds each correspond to something that happened in reality, or the crimes of the townspeople.

The sinners that God's messengers target are simply those who have violated its authority.

For example, Marty went to the former postman because the postman was guilty of laziness.

The God of Lust went to the bald man because the bald man was about to attack the hamster, which committed the sin of lust.

For original sins outside of their own functions, the gods' messengers cannot enforce the law across fields.

Just when he thought it was reasonable, he, who was holding the certificate of jealousy and had the authority of a god's messenger, actually saw the sin value on the god of lust.

Sin value, -100.

No, what happened? Did the god of lust commit the sin of jealousy?
He used the authority of the God of Jealousy to convict the God of Lust.

The moment he was convicted, he did nothing, and flames burst out of the body of the God of Lust, and he was burned to ashes by the fire of jealousy while wailing in pain.

Wu Chang cleared away the ashes and found a chess piece with a little man burned by flames carved on it.

"Item Name: Evidence of Lust"

「Item type: Special」

"Item Description: Holders of the Lust Certificate can freely enter a special space - the House of Bondage. In the House of Bondage area, they will be regarded as messengers of God and have the right to judge the target's sins. If the target's goodness and evilness value is less than 5, they will be judged as a sinner."

Looking at the evidence of lust in his hand, Wu Chang frowned. Not only did he successfully judge the God of Lust, he also killed him instantly.

This change was beyond his expectations.

Is the sin of lust the real-life counterpart of the sin of jealousy?

Or is there some special connection between the two?

The event recorded in the Sin of Jealousy is that the townspeople, out of jealousy, turned against Tian Gang, declared the saint a heretic, and executed her by burning at the stake.

If the sin of lust is related to the sin of jealousy, then what it represents is that the townspeople have lust for the saint?

Jealousy caused by lust?

Although it seems reasonable, can jealousy caused by lust really reach a good and evil value of -100?

No, his inspiration kicked in at this moment, a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind, and many fragments of information appeared in front of his eyes one by one, spontaneously piecing together.

Using the connection between lust and jealousy as a clue, he seemed to see the truth.

Marty said that the world in Fishman Wharf represents their past experience as pirates. Why is it once? As the descendants of pirates, why do the townspeople regard what they originally took for granted as original sin? At the same time, Marty has great respect for the Saint, and would rather blow himself up than reveal the Saint's information.

The Orgrimskirkja Ecclesiarchy is openly searching for the Saint, but compared to the Saint's life or death, they care more about the so-called holy marks.

When the saint was burned as a heretic, the emotion that arose in the hearts of the bishop and the townspeople was not hatred, disgust or lust, but jealousy.

In the bishop's mind, burning the saint to death was the biggest flaw in his heart that he was most reluctant to face.

The passage to the world of jealousy lies not in the statue of the Madonna, but in the bishop's eyes, which have been sewn shut.

The saint from outside the island actually has scales on her body that are produced after eating golden flying fish. Once you eat golden flying fish, you will become addicted and cannot get rid of it.

Before the Lustful Envoy attacked the Baldy and him, he asked a question, "Will you stay on this island?"

As a messenger of God, the Lustful God is in the inner world representing jealousy, but he is guilty of almost the highest degree of sin.

The last clue that emerged in Wu Chang's mind was his discussion with Linghu about lust.

Lust is not necessarily limited to sexual desire in the literal sense.

In religion, treating others in a way that ignores their feelings and only cares about using them to satisfy one's own desires can be called lust.

The God of Lust is so obsessed with staying on the island. Is his obsession with those who have committed the sin of lust?

I'm afraid not.

A famous detective once said that after eliminating the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.

A bold guess about the truth took shape in his mind.

He entered a meditative state, trying to fill in the clues and piece together a plausible truth.

Ten clues turned into ten memory fragments surrounding Wu Chang.

Wu Chang watched ten memory fragments at the same time, constantly adjusting, arranging and combining the order of the pictures. When a certain picture emerged, he would extract a clue from it and connect it with the corresponding clues in other pictures.

When he put all the fragments of the ten memories together like puzzle pieces to form the final picture.

A figure emerges in the picture, a figure that runs through all the clues and is at the core of all the problems.

That girl who was pure and flawless, seemed to be the epitome of perfection.

Saint.

Wu Chang took a deep breath and prepared to organize his thoughts and express his guess next time.

But somehow, his inspiration sensed a hint of danger from outside, as if countless dissatisfied eyes were staring at him. He immediately organized his thoughts and began to review the truth he had guessed.

Simply put, the death of the saint was not due to her faith, but because she was too outstanding. Her personal charm overshadowed the high-handed rule of Count Germaine, which ultimately led to her own death.

Moreover, the appearance of the saint is the root and fuse of the world of the seven deadly sins on Briv Island.

Before the arrival of the Saint, the islanders worked as pirates under the instructions of Earl Germaine, plundering merchant ships of the kingdom and living an easy and comfortable life.

Compared to the ill-gotten gains from plunder, working hard to earn money seems too hard.

But with the arrival of the Saint, everything changed.

She was unaware that the townspeople were followers of the Cult of Perception, or even if she knew, she chose to forgive them and spread the true Orgrimskian Church to the townspeople.

Under the saint's preaching, the cognitive barriers in the hearts of the islanders who were completely controlled by Earl Jermaine gradually broke down.

They begin to understand what is right and what is wrong, and truly understand virtue and kindness.

As the saying goes, I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the sun.

Without the saint, the townspeople could continue to live under the manipulation of Count Germaine and lead their previous lives.

But after the appearance of the saint, they had true faith and wanted to get rid of the miserable past.

He wanted to stop being a pirate and instead earn wealth through labor and work like the people in the outside world.

But Earl Germaine was the first to disagree with this change.

The saint's appeal is indeed strong, but Count Jermaine knows the townspeople too well and has too many ways to control them.

Just one sentence is enough to make the townspeople who want to walk into the light fall into darkness again.

"The Saint will leave sooner or later."

The saint's personal charm is enough to overshadow Count Germaine's iron-fisted rule, and it is also enough to overshadow the doctrines she promotes.

For the people of Briff, the doctrine is not their light, but the saint is.

Hence the question raised by the God of Lust.

"Will you stay on this island?"

Unfortunately, the saint was not destined to stay on this island.

So Count Jermaine kindly offered help and allowed the saint to eat the golden flying fish.

The saint who ate the golden flying fish became addicted to fish and could not turn back, and fell into the control of Count Jermaine.

Perhaps from the very beginning, the Saint was Count Jermaine's target because of the holy marks she carried on her body.

Although we don't know what the stigmata represent yet, the fact that recovering the stigmata and searching for the missing Saint can be used as parallel conditions for completing side quests shows that the stigmata have a higher priority than the Saint.

Because this means that as long as the holy marks are found, the religion will not delve too deeply into the life or death of the saint.

In order to completely cover up the secret, Count Jermaine, who had obtained the stigmata, used his understanding and control over the townspeople to once again incite their desires.

This time, it was jealousy.

Maybe it means that the Saint has broken free from control and is preparing to flee from Briver; maybe it means that once the incident of the Perception Sect is exposed, the Saint will regard the townspeople as heretics and will no longer have any mercy or compassion...

There are many methods. Wu Chang can come up with seven or eight different methods just by thinking about it.

In short, Count Germaine succeeded in arousing the jealousy of the townspeople, including the bishop.

As an opinion leader in the eyes of the townspeople, the bishop's verdict completely ignited the townspeople's jealousy.

They were jealous of where the Saint was going and that there would be others to share this light with.

With the belief that what cannot be obtained should be destroyed, the townspeople's jealousy burned the saint to death, and also burned themselves who felt the light in their hearts.

This scene corresponds to the image that Wu Chang saw in the remnant of the bishop's mental image.

When the townspeople lit the stake, they also set themselves on fire.

By the time everything calmed down and the townspeople repented, it was too late.

The bishop calmed down and fell into endless self-blame. The jealous verdict he made that day became the biggest flaw in his heart.

He sewed his eyes shut, but was still trapped in that day, unable to get out. As an ascetic, his inspiration and willpower were inferior to Professor Ebert.

Not only the bishop felt guilty, but all the townspeople as well.

They learned virtues from the saint, experienced the transition from darkness to light, and then from light back to darkness, and clearly saw their own original sin and the ugliness that original sin brought.

The experiences related to the saint were extracted by them and became the seven other worlds on the island representing the seven deadly sins.

The townspeople, whose inner morality and conscience have been burned out, can only simulate the life under the light that the saint once described for them by enacting strict rules and maintaining the rules through extreme means.

Wu Chang let out a long sigh and shifted his attention away from reconsideration of the truth.

He already had a rough guess about what happened on Briver Island, but as the truth gradually came to light, many questions arose.

If Count Jermaine is targeting the Saint with the goal of taking the stigmata, what is his plan?
After the trial of the Saint, why did Count Jermaine also disappear? And what was the huge faceless nun that stayed in the main house of the Count's manor?
What do the greed and rage that he has not yet discovered correspond to?
The plot has been basically explored, and next, he needs to speed up the copy strategy.

At the same time, as if sensing Wu Chang's decision, the saint whom he brought out from the remnant of the bishop's mind image opened her eyes from her coma.
