The Final Story of Miss Weird

"..."

It was difficult for Luo Ling to adapt to the sensation brought by Alyssa's blind and broken body for a while. After a while, he got used to it and restored his vision with the help of the power of the spores.

However, even Luo Ling rarely uses spores as eyes all the time like this.

Because the vision of spores is completely different from that of living beings. Although they can perceive more, they cannot see colors. All they can feel are gray pictures and cold information, which is far less colorful and brilliant than what they see with their own eyes.

However, for Alyssa, whose eyes were forever taken away by "God", being able to have such a vision is already a precious compensation, and wanting anything else is just a luxury.

"These memories..."

Luo Ling spent a lot of energy before he finally separated the part belonging to Alyssa from the mottled and complicated memories, and began to read it carefully.

You don’t know until you see it. This sight really scared Luo Ling.

This feeling was like when you were playing an idle game and you hadn't been online for a long time, and then you encountered an unexpectedly large number of noobs. Luo Ling had never expected that the Church of Light could develop to this level.

Even...today, the Church of Light has been officially recognized as a branch of the Victorian Church, and is funded and supported by many families with considerable assets but little status, or more accurately, local tycoons.

This magnificent cathedral is one of the results of these families' donations to the Church of Light. In order to reflect their devout faith and ideas, no workers were hired to build the cathedral. It was all built brick by brick by the priests themselves.

It was miraculously built in just one month, and its scale is only slightly smaller than that of Victoria's most famous cathedral.

Such a miracle has become a hot topic of conversation in Victoria in recent days, and has attracted many new believers to join. The Church of Light has become the most popular state religious organization.

Of course, for something so counterintuitive, the "company" had sent employees to secretly check on the situation, to see whether it was the intervention of the awakened or a strange phenomenon.

Whether it is an awakened person or a weird one, the "Company" will take action to stop it so as not to overly affect the development of the world.

But in the end, the results of the "company" inspection were inconclusive.

Although these priests worked tirelessly day and night, and were energetic even when their bodies were almost exhausted, the progress of the cathedral construction was not affected at all...

But what is incredible is that they are indeed... ordinary people.

No matter how I checked, the result was the same. There was not even a trace of the power of the awakened world.

This abnormal and strange situation can only be explained by the words of the on-site investigator: "Maybe this is the power of faith."

If it is just ordinary people's affairs, no matter how bizarre, it is not within the scope of the "company".

Even if it is a serial killer, as long as the murderer is an ordinary person who has no strange power and does not use any power related to the awakened, the "company" will not intervene.

On the contrary, if this accident had any connection, even just a little bit, the "company" might not even need to issue the task, and the employees would all be clamoring to exchange their heads for points.

However, the reason why these priests, who were identified as "ordinary people" by the "company", were able to perform this so-called miracle was certainly not due to the power of faith.

It's just because they have all become lost lambs controlled by the puppet, and all their actions are no different from those of puppets.

The truly terrifying thing about Puppet Rumor is that no one can ever detect any abnormality in it. Even when the entire Jiangcheng County was transformed into its incubator, no one could detect it at all.

"However, the Church of Light has grown to such a large scale today. Haven't religious figures ever intervened?"

Even if... just secretly intervene?

Luo Ling pondered for a moment and wanted to look at the priests' memories, but then hesitated.

Thousands of priests and such a huge amount of memory fragments, how could she possibly find them all by herself?

I hadn't expected that Alyssa would have such great abilities. What started as a small fight was developed by her to the level of a branch of the state religion, so I didn't do any screening in advance.

After thinking carefully for a moment, Luo Ling suddenly thought that since these priests could work day and night under the control of Puppet Yao, it seemed that... they could also be used to organize memories day and night?

Anyway, the priests who can stay now are basically evil people who have committed many evil things, so they will be killed and dominated by Alyssa. There will be no psychological burden to drive them no matter how.

If someone joins the church planned by a religious leader because they are forced or have difficulties, Alyssa will punish them appropriately or exempt them from punishment, and let them leave the church after stripping their memories.

Although Alyssa is dead and everything is now given by Luo Ling, her memories and emotions... are still as simple and kind as before.

What is even more commendable is that when it is time to take action, Alyssa will not hesitate or hold back because of her kindness. This is not due to the influence of Luo Ling, but is simply the way Alyssa is.

Being able to survive alone with her sister in the dangerous slums...how could Alyssa be a weak woman who only knows how to be kind?

After thinking of this method, Luo Ling tried it on a few puppets, aggregating, retrieving and storing memories in their minds. Luo Ling then determined that this method was feasible.

However, something unexpected happened. In the process of verifying this plan, Luo Ling accidentally blew up the heads of several puppets, and even their brains were turned into brain pulp.

The reason is that the amount of memory is too heavy. Pouring it into an ordinary person's mind in one breath is almost the same as a high-intensity mental attack.

Furthermore, the scale of these memories may become even larger in the future, and it is impossible to concentrate them in the minds of one or a few people. Even the state that has been partially strengthened under the control of the Puppet Rumor cannot withstand such intensity.

What's more troublesome is that these priests are all ordinary people and cannot be directly transformed using Puppet Rumors.

Otherwise, it might be discovered by religious people or "companies", and then the puppet rumor's greatest reliance, its absolute concealment feature that no one knows about, would be lost.

Luo Ling didn't want to take any risk, so he could only seek other methods.

"What if we divide the memory processing steps into several more? And then put the final processing result in a specific location..."

Thinking of this, Luo Ling began to intentionally look for puppets with larger brain capacity as the repository for the final processing results, and then found some with more flexible brains as the adopted programs for processing memory.

First, the memories of several people are gathered together in the adoption program. Through the adoption program, the more critical memories are separated, such as fragments related to "company" or "pioneer", and then these key memories are sent to the storage library.

The adoption program deletes the memories that have been processed and then adds the next batch of memories that need to be processed. It repeats this process in a similar way until the memories of thousands of people have been traversed.

Saint Alisa regularly checks the memories in the storage. If they are unimportant memories, they will be deleted directly, and if they are quite important, they will be sent directly to Luo Ling's mind.

If it is not that important but may be useful, then save it in Alyssa's own mind first and check it when Luo Ling's consciousness comes back.

In this way, the problem of complicated and redundant memory can be solved, and Luo Ling can receive key information in a timely manner without having to keep an eye on the situation here all the time.

It's simply...killing two birds with one stone!

Moreover, even if the number of people under subsequent control increases, it will be enough to add adoption procedures and repositories appropriately. Saint Alyssa's processing efficiency is still very high, and there is no need to add another final review mechanism for the time being.

If there are enough puppets serving as adoption programs and repositories, the pressure of processing memory will be much smaller, and the impact on the puppets' normal states will not be serious.

In the eyes of others, at most you are just a little absent-minded, and they will just think you are tired or distracted, and no one will notice anything unusual.

Luo Ling did what he said. He quickly configured several memory processing processes. In less than three minutes, the adoption program had completed the memory processing of several people, extracted useful information from them, and placed it in the storage library.

"Not bad, the efficiency is higher than I thought."

Luo Ling checked these processed memories in the storage. Although they contained some information related to the "company", they were not very important, so he simply deleted them.

Then, Luo Ling checked the adoption procedure and the status of the repository again to see the consumption and loss in this process.

The results are also quite good. Whether it is the processing or storage of memory, the consumption of brain power can be said to be almost zero, not to mention the loss.

Not to mention the unexpected brain explosion that just happened, even reading a book normally requires more brain power than this, and the degree of damage is not even comparable to staying up late.

Therefore, Luo Ling deliberately left enough redundant space to facilitate direct overload when needed. At worst, deep development of the subconscious mind can still tap into a lot of brain power.

All in all, pretty perfect.

There may be a lot of room for improvement, but... at least it works now.

As long as the program works, don't think about optimizing it for the time being. Accidents may easily occur, which will only cause more trouble.

Anyway, the program made by Luo Ling did not have a product manager, and even the requirements document was written by her herself.

"Hiss, am I really a genius?"

Watching this program running continuously and the corresponding memories being transmitted into his mind, Luo Ling couldn't help but have this thought. He couldn't help but sigh that these puppets were really easy to use and saved him a lot of trouble.

Perhaps, a lot of small tricks can be developed through the puppet's ability in the future.

It only means that the ability her sister left her is indeed powerful enough.

Soon, under Luo Ling's processing, the memories of thousands of priests began to be processed one after another.

The memories of thousands of people have been accumulated for two months, and it is quite time-consuming to process them. At least there is no hope of processing them all tonight.

Of course, compared to Luo Ling doing it himself, this amount of time is already short enough to rummage through a pile of disorganized memories to find what he wants.

As for Alyssa's memory, Luo Lingken personally analyzed it and indeed found a lot of useful information from it, which also answered her previous doubts.

"The religious leader has not shown up once... It seems that the "Pioneer" is indeed hiding something big. I thought that the three-month retreat the religious leader mentioned before was just a simple absence. Now there is no movement, which can only mean that he is really in seclusion."

Otherwise, it would be impossible for religious people to have no reaction at all to the Church of Light, which is now of an unusually large scale.

In addition, Luo Ling probably knew why the scale of the church was so scattered and unsystematic before. The main reason was... before, it was almost in the form of a cult, worshiping something weird.

Not only do they change the weird creatures to worship from time to time, and they do so more frequently than they change their clothes, but each offering is also very bloody. It would be impossible for them to attract believers under such circumstances.

It is estimated that even religious people who are good at this aspect have no solution to this situation. They can only try to find some bad people to take on the duties of priests and force the promotion of faith.

However, the situation of the Church of Light under the charge of Alyssa is completely different. As a high-risk and weird agent, she does not need to perform any bloody sacrifices to obtain the power of the weird side, so she naturally lacks a way to dissuade believers.

As for the weirdness of the worship...I'm sorry, how could an officially recognized branch of the state religion believe in the weirdness that only cults like? It must be Lao Ye.

In order to fulfill the religious man's request and transmit the weird power to the corresponding weirdness, Luo Ling had previously analyzed the sacrificial ceremony created by the religious man. At that time, he missed dinner at Eve's house and only recovered after eating.

Luo Ling is a high-risk weirdo. She doesn't need to speculate on the connection between weirdos and believers like a religious person. She directly conducted several experiments on herself and Alyssa, and quickly found the corresponding method, successfully breaking the truth of this connection, allowing Alyssa to operate this connection relatively freely.

In fact, as a branch of the state religion, the Church of Light is quite immature and is almost entirely maintained by the personal charm of Saint Alyssa, but this immaturity is precisely the result deliberately caused by Alyssa.

In this way, believers of the Church of Light, in addition to Lao Ye, also believe in Saint Alyssa, who is hailed as an angel descended to earth.

Alyssa thus took over the faith connection of the believers. As long as she established a connection with some strange person or some existence, it would be equivalent to the believers' faith in the corresponding object.

This perfectly solves the problem of believers losing due to the frequent changes in the object of faith. It also allows Alyssa to become much stronger because of this connection, and she can carry more of Luo Ling's power. Her strength is not far from breaking through to the upper-level awakener.

"I didn't expect that Alyssa is also a genius!" Luo Ling sighed again.

Luo Ling only solved the problems of bloody offerings and strange connections. Almost everything else was done by Alyssa, including her ability to become a truly believed saint and the various means she used during this period... Luo Ling, who has a relatively simple personality, could not do it.

"In this case, I feel like I don't have the ability to make any arrangements for the church anymore..."

Luo Ling was flipping through the part of Alyssa's memory about the church. She had originally wanted to show off her talents and see if she had any undiscovered genius ideas in other areas.

After completing the memory traversal program, Luo Ling discovered that there were many things that Alyssa could do that she was unable to do.

Especially when looking at the church's current extremely large organizational structure, Luo Ling was extremely overwhelmed... She had never even become the captain of a combat team, let alone managing a team of thousands of people.

It's better to leave it all to Alyssa. With my own abilities, I can only be a big boss behind the scenes at best.

There are still too many things that Luo Ling cannot do.

After finishing all of these, Luo Ling suddenly heard some movement behind him. He couldn't help but turn his head slightly and looked towards the place where the movement occurred.

I saw a young girl carefully pushing the heavy church door. When she realized that the saint had discovered her, she showed a slightly embarrassed expression and whispered,

"elder sister..."

That’s right, the person who came was Alyssa’s younger sister Stasha. She was very different now from the first time she met Luo Ling.

Stasha's status today is completely different from before. As the most cherished sister of Her Highness the Saint, she will be flattered wherever she goes, and no one dares to neglect her anymore.

There would be no more hooligans disrespecting her, no need to worry about hearing the news of her sister's death tomorrow, she lived in a house so big that she had never believed before, she got fresh food every day, and even the expensive desserts enjoyed by the nobles were hers to choose from.

Even not long ago, Stasha was just an ordinary girl in the slums who was unknown to anyone.

In just two months, Stasha's life has been turned upside down.

But... for Stasha herself, this did not make her happy. On the contrary, she felt confused. Such a strong contrast in such a short period of time made her at a loss.

Stasha, who had not seen much of the world, found it difficult to understand these things. She only knew that one day her sister became the saint who had the final say in the Church of Light, and then suddenly, everyone treated her very well.

Even the private school teacher who had taught her before was extremely respectful to her, with a humble attitude, and there was no trace of contempt and disdain in his eyes as before.

All the changes seemed to have started from the night when the news of my sister's death came out...

Stasha still clearly remembers the horror she felt when she found out her sister was dead that night, and the relief she felt when she finally saw her sister come back. Even the faint fragrance at the tip of her nose seems to have not faded yet.

But why?

Why, after that, my sister... seemed to have changed.

Her sister did not stop loving her. On the contrary, no matter when, her sister always treated her as the most precious and important sister, and was as gentle as before.

No matter how she thought about it, no matter how she guessed, Stasha couldn't find any change in her sister. Everything seemed to be natural, just as she remembered.

She is her impeccable sister.

But for some reason, Stasha still felt that her sister had become a little strange, no longer the sister she knew before. This was the most troubling thing for her in recent times.

"Stasha, you're here."

Luo Ling called softly to the girl at the door, with the corners of his mouth curling up slightly involuntarily.

Every night, Alyssa would stay alone in the church to pray, actually establishing a strange connection, and later in the evening, Stasha would come to the church to take her home.

This is also the only time the sisters are alone in the day.

Luo Ling actually quite likes this girl who is very dependent on her sister. Perhaps it is because she sees some of herself in Stasha.

"elder sister..."
