It is said to be holy water, but in fact it is just clear water from the pool in the backyard of the church. It is filled with the Holy Grail. It is crystal clear and seems to be nothing special.
The priest waved away the trembling believers, then held the Holy Grail and looked at Officer Zhang.
"What's wrong?" Officer Zhang asked, raising his eyebrows.
She knew from the police station's information that the main battle force against those cultists decades ago was actually mostly due to the church. After all, as a religion, they should also have some methods to deal with foreign teachers.
Although the current church looks very shabby no matter how you look at it, the bishop, priest and pastor are all the same person. There are not many believers in the huge church, not even knights...
The more I think about it, the more shabby I feel.
The priest smiled and said in a warm voice: "You endure the pain, it's probably similar to alcohol disinfection."
Hearing this, Officer Zhang looked around, pulled out the cushion from the seat in the hall, bit the edge, and then raised his chin towards the priest.
Previously, she was suddenly attacked by Lan Ruo while driving, and she almost had a car accident. Although she finally subdued the opponent, her entire right arm was stained, and there was a dense burning pain like a burn.
Even if there was nothing to distract her attention, her thinking would seem to be affected by the severe pain, making her feel as confused as a nightmare.
And now, at the moment when the priest was holding the holy water and pouring it over, Officer Zhang bit the cushion tightly, and the girl's delicate and lovely face appeared in his mind.
"呲——"
The holy water flowed down the arm, and instantly there was a sound of hot oil grilling. Black mist surrounded white air rising up. Officer Zhang took a deep breath, endured the pain and lowered his head. He clenched his left hand and his whole body trembled slightly.
With.
After the swirling black fog dissipated, Officer Zhang's arm was revealed. On the pale gray skin, a piece of flesh that seemed to be torn was hanging softly, and the surrounding area had rotted, showing a strange pitch black color.
The priest calmly took a square towel, soaked it in holy water and wrapped it on the piece of black carrion. Then he made a gesture, closed his eyes and began to pray.
Officer Zhang was kneeling on the ground, leaning her upper body against the seat, burying her head in her arms and enduring the execution. After a while, she felt that the tearing pain in her arms had eased, and she could bear it normally.
"It's okay, just rest for a while."
At this time, the gentle voice of the priest came.
Officer Zhang let go of the seat cushion he was biting in his mouth, and immediately cursed with clear consciousness: "Fuck! It really hurts!"
Priest: "..."
After the crisis was over, Officer Zhang naturally returned to his normal appearance. He looked at the wet square bandaged on his hand without touching it, and then turned to look at Lan Ruo on the ground.
She thought this thing was really dead before, but at that time it seemed that it had just entered a dormant state for some reason. As for the reason, it probably had something to do with Qiuzi.
I don’t know what Qiuzi did to her at that time.
Officer Zhang thought about it, frowned and said: "These things seem to be hiding in the shadows, and the darkness can activate them. The black mist they emit has the effect of losing consciousness, and the attack is also highly polluting."
She told the story of how she was facing this thing. After all, the two of them were on the same front now, and she didn't mind revealing all the details of the enemy!
The priest nodded and revealed his information: "According to the church's records, these things are 'Death Eaters' under the command of the 'Black God', created by the Black Cult. After complete transformation, the consciousness will disappear.
It acts on instinct, feeds on flesh and blood, and is highly contagious and contaminating, just like the plague."
As he spoke, he glanced at Officer Zhang's arm and added, "For example, if you are injured by it, you will also transform into a Death Eater."
Officer Zhang's expression froze.
Then the priest added: "The holy water in the church has a healing effect on this kind of pollution. Although it is not as good as before, it is still called 'holy water' anyway."
As long as it is called holy water, it is definitely still holy water!
Officer Zhang: "Let me take a bucket back later."
"...If there are too many, there will be no overlapping effect."
"I'll sprinkle it elsewhere."
"It's no use praying without a priest."
"Tsk."
…
It would not be good for Lan Ruo, who had entered a dormant state again, to remain in the church hall. Officer Zhang dragged her with a blanket and temporarily locked her in a small secret room of the church.
Then the lights were turned on and candles were lit in the room, and it was brightly lit!
"I didn't expect that your church actually has a private prison!" Officer Zhang clapped his hands and walked out, shaking his head.
The priest mopped the floor with holy water. Hearing this, he said with a calm face: "You, the police, can pursue this matter after this period of crisis is over."
Anyway, it will be none of his business by then.
Officer Zhang just made fun of her identity. She then asked: "Did you find any other information today, such as the hiding place of that group of people?"
"No." The priest frowned slightly: "Lan Ruo's figure has always only appeared under the road camera heading to the dance studio, and it cannot be traced after entering the village in the city. I have only locked two possible areas now, but there is no specific one.
Location.—Where are your people over there?”
"Stop talking, there is no news, and they were almost wiped out." Officer Zhang curled his lips and said.
The police don't have the sacred means of the church, so they can search for information alright, but if they face that kind of weird attack, there's nothing they can do for the time being.
Although the church has little information, it has the means to purify cultists, so the two parties joined forces back then.
Now that the incident has resurfaced, the cultists obviously understood the reason and immediately attacked the police who could find their location. This also caused the investigation to stop at a critical moment.
After hearing this, the priest pondered for a moment and said, "I wanted to tell you before. Since they have already attacked the police, I think the church will also be attacked soon."
"Then what?" Officer Zhang asked, touching his right arm.
"You got Lanruo from Qiuzi today. I also figured it out. Qiuzi's current state is probably similar to that of a Death Eater." The priest continued.
Hearing this, Officer Zhang remained silent as he thought of that delicate, cute, and occasionally a little spooky girl.
The "black dog" arouses inner desires, and the polluted person will infinitely amplify the evil thoughts in his heart and only act according to his instinct.
Lan Ruo probably killed Qiuzi because she couldn't control her jealousy, so what will Qiuzi do after being contaminated?
She remembered the way the girl danced during the day, her graceful and jumping figure like a graceful and pure white swan.
I really can’t think of what Qiuzi will do after turning black. After all, if she wants revenge, she will naturally kill Lan Ruo. But Lan Ruo is already dead, what else can she do?
Winning the acting competition?
Then kill Xena?
This plot is really contaminating the dance troupe one by one...
Officer Zhang's thoughts couldn't help but spread out.
At this time, I heard the priest say again: "So, Qiuzi must know something. Didn't she say before that she was looking forward to you finding her? Why don't you go directly and ask where the cultists are hiding?"
