Chapter 95 Ebert's Conditions
Wu Chang was surprised, and before he could even appreciate the girl's fitted nurse uniform, he quickly said:
"Is Professor Ebert dying? Come on, take me there."

This old Deng is finally almost unable to hold on, but he is still able to hold on.

If he could hold on for another two or three days, he would have completed all the copies.

The town hospital was built not far from the church, and dying townspeople were usually taken directly to the church for last prayers.

The town of Briver is not big, and there are not many townspeople. When each town resident reaches the end of his life, the bishop usually presides over his last prayers.

But not this time.

The bishop was the human-shaped key to enter the Jealousy Church. The moment Wu Chang opened up the other world, the bishop was corroded by jealousy and turned into charcoal.

Now, let alone saying last prayers, even entering the cathedral is not allowed.

The bishop was now lying in the cathedral, receiving condolences and blessings, while other townspeople who were preparing to set off had to line up outside.

Of course, if you can’t wait, you can go ahead and maybe catch up with the bishop in front and make up for the last prayer.

Because of the bishop's death, the whole town became dead.

The townspeople had just felt peaceful and calm yesterday because of the prayers led by the bishop, but when they woke up this morning, the negative emotions came back with a vengeance.

The square in front of the cathedral was filled with townspeople kneeling, surrounding themselves with candles and praying loudly towards the cathedral.

But no matter how loud the prayers were, they could not cover up the sadness and fear on everyone's faces.

Linghu and the other nuns were taking care of the townspeople at the scene. When they saw Wu Chang passing by, they trotted over to greet him.

Wu Chang waved his hand to signal the nurse leading the way to leave first, and then asked Linghu: "What is the situation of the church?"

Linghu shook her head, and dark circles appeared under her eyes again, obviously she did not sleep well last night.

"It's terrible. The bishop is everyone's spiritual leader. His death is like the sky falling for the cathedral. Everyone is very negative. The usually steady head nun went crazy yesterday and smashed everything in the house."

At this point, Linghu looked a little nervous and whispered:
"I could sense that with the death of the bishop, something was released in the cathedral and it started affecting everyone."

"I'm a little scared..."

Wu Chang stuffed a key into Linghu's hand and comforted her:
"The chaos is only temporary. Believe in Jianxing, he will find a way. Since the cathedral is not safe, you should stay in the post office for two days. When the situation stabilizes, you can decide whether to come back."

Just like the townspeople hearing the bishop’s prayers, they will not feel fear no matter how great the difficulties they encounter.

Hearing Wu Chang's voice at this moment, my soul felt inexplicably at peace.

Her face turned slightly red, and she said hesitantly, "Is it appropriate for me to go to the post office? Will it cause you any trouble?"

She had been to the post office in town. The lounge was a single room that was not very spacious. Wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate for two people to be together?
Wu Chang smiled and said, "It's okay. The town council is very busy these two days. I probably won't go back. You don't have to worry about me affecting you."

Spirit Fox: "Ah? No..."

Wu Chang saw the young nurse waving at him anxiously, and without bothering to listen to Linghu finish her words, he interrupted, "Remember to lock the door when you are alone. I have something else to do at the hospital. We'll talk later."

The young nurse waiting in the distance was originally calm, but after one of her colleagues ran over and said something to her, she became anxious.

When the nurse saw him running over, she said quickly, "Senator Sean, please hurry up. Professor Ebert has fainted again and is about to collapse."

Wu Chang followed the young nurse to Ebert's ward. When he got closer and took a look, he frowned instantly and pulled back the young nurse who was about to leave.

"Girl, you've taken us to the wrong ward. Who is this?"

The young nurse confirmed: "He is Professor Ebert. It is the disease that has turned him into this state."

Wu Chang took another look at Professor Ebert on the bed, this time looking more carefully, and at least he could make out some of Ebert's appearance.

The old professor was severely tortured by the disease. He still remembered the day when he first met Ebert. Although Ebert was thin, he was in good spirits, with clear and bright eyes, full of the wisdom that only scholars can have.

His hair and clothes were neat and tidy, and he looked like a typical old gentleman. But in just three days, Professor Ebbett turned into a human skeleton.

The crazy diarrhea caused him to become severely dehydrated, and his plump lips became dry and white, and his lips became cracked.

The continuous high fever made him extremely haggard, his hair was greasy and sticky, his eyes were sunken, and his face was dull.

The eyes that were once full of wisdom were now filled with turbid gray, from which only a thick aura of death could be seen.

In a coma near death, he still couldn't get rid of the nightmare, and muttered intermittently words that no one could understand.

Wu Chang sighed, wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, and said to the nurse:
"The disease is really so hateful. How could such a wise scholar become like this?"

The nurse consoled him, "Senator Sean, please accept my condolences. Birth, aging, illness and death are part of human nature. Professor Ebert is old. An old man of his age could easily fall and his body functions would suddenly decline."

Wu Chang said sadly: "I need a little comfort."

The young nurse's face flushed slightly. She looked around and seeing that no one was paying attention, she came up and gave Wu Chang a hug.

Wu Chang hugged the little nurse tightly until the little nurse struggled for the third time, and then he let go reluctantly.

"Senator Sean, we're still in the ward." After escaping from the clutches of the devil, the young nurse complained in a low voice and immediately ran out of the room shyly.

Wu Chang smiled and waved to the little nurse who turned back to peek, and the little nurse shyly ran away again.

The girl is still better. She shyly avoids the slightest thing. If it were Morena, she would probably drag him to the next ward and have an in-depth conversation.

He dropped his waving hands, exhaled a breath, and looked at Ebert on the bed.

Now no one will come to disturb them for a while.

He controlled the ability of evil spirits and adjusted the effects of "plague" and "evil spirits" in Ebert's body to a latent state.

Without the "plague" and "evil spirits", Ebert woke up from his coma a few minutes later with his strong willpower.

When Ebert woke up, he saw Wu Chang for the first time and realized that he had escaped from the nightmare. He was so excited as if he had seen a relative.

It seems that Old Deng has been torturing his conscience in his nightmares.

"Professor Ebert, how did you become like this?" Wu Chang leaned over in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.

Ebert coughed twice. He didn't bother to explain. He pulled Wu Chang's sleeve and asked with all his strength, "Are you sent by the church?"

Wu Chang was silent for a moment, then confessed, "Archbishop Gilman asked me to come to Briver to find you, hoping that you could help me investigate something."

Ebert grabbed Wu Chang's sleeve and began to use force, "I can help you, but you have to agree to one condition of mine."

"You say."

"You have to promise me that you will enter the Earl's manor, destroy me, and ruin the ceremony prepared by Earl Jermaine!" Ebert said with difficulty.

Wu Chang curled his lips and said, "You just said "I", right?"

You old man, I knew you did something bad in the dungeon.

Good fellow, it turns out that you not only betrayed the church, but also became Earl Jermaine's technical advisor. Even the formation in the Earl's manor was prepared by you.

Wu Chang pretended not to hear Ebert's slip of the tongue and said with difficulty: "I have explored the Earl's manor. It is surrounded by a mysterious power. I have tried every way but failed to enter. And even if I could enter, I don't know how to destroy the ritual."

Ebert: "Help me get my clothes."

Wu Chang took Ebert's clothes from not far away. Ebert removed several inconspicuous decorations on the clothes, inserted them together, and pieced them together to form a key.

"Take it and go to the lighthouse on the seashore. On the top floor of the lighthouse, you will find everything you need. When you destroy the ritual, come back and I will tell you the answer Gilman wants."
