After hearing what the priest said, Levi was stunned on the spot.
He believed what Carter said, even though Levi had never felt any danger on this strangely patterned stone.
But the "Necronomicon" would not lie to him. This kind of stone is a creation related to the outer gods.
Even though he had been living peacefully in this small town for many days, he always remembered that the mission level this time was A-.
Before this, the only A-level dungeon he had ever experienced was the one where he killed Yamata no Orochi.
Even the last dungeon where I faced the Golden King and Mugu Dan was only B+ grade.
He snatched the stone from the priest's hand and crushed it directly in his hand.
"You..." When the priest saw Levi's actions, he was stunned at first, and then he only felt unparalleled anger.
"Father, believe me, this stone is poisonous and will throw away all the things in the church." Levi put his hand on the priest's shoulder, and then handed a gold brick to the priest's hand.
The priest's expression suddenly became kind, and he secretly slipped the gold brick into his sleeve and said, "I understand."
After saying that, the priest secretly glanced at Carter, who looked like a muscular man, and he breathed a sigh of relief after making sure Carter didn't see the gold brick.
"Your Excellency Levi, the matter is more serious than we thought. We must not let this stone continue to circulate. In such a short period of contact, I felt something talking in my brain." Carter pointed to his own.
Brain, speaking of.
The two people immediately left the church, both looking solemn.
However, Levi did not feel any hallucinations or whispers, and this stone seemed like an ordinary fossil in his hand.
Except for the initial reaction to the "Necronomicon", everything else seemed to have no effect on him.
If this kind of stone had an effect on him, he would have discovered the strangeness long ago since he had been living in the church.
"Your Excellency Li Wei, Your Excellency Li Wei..."
Carter kept calling Levi's name to bring his thoughts back.
"Sir Levi, it seems that you have also been affected by that strange stone. Then we have to go to the West India Company quickly and ask about the origin of this stone." Carter saw the way Levi had just come back to his senses and mistakenly thought that Levi
It was also affected by the stone.
Levi did not explain, but immediately said: "Then let's leave quickly. Do you know where the headquarters of the West India Company is?"
"In this case, it's ten kilometers north of the Massachusetts port, where they established a dedicated port." Carter replied.
"Then let's set off quickly." Levi came to the stable behind the church and stepped onto the horse's back.
The originally listless horse immediately came to life after Li Wei rode on it, roaring to the sky as if steam could gush out from its nostrils.
Levi also brought along this folklorist who called himself Qiao Qiao, because he could find the town of Salem through just a stone. At least he was far better than Levi in terms of intelligence tracking.
Levi has always been used to being reckless, and intelligence analysis and tracking are not his strengths at all. Therefore, he also established a Ninja Village in the main world to make up for his lack of intelligence.
After the two left, the priest put on new clothes and came to the cross, and began to confess and pray in front of the cross.
"God, forgive me. I need money. I need a lot of money to go to the Holy City to pray for Betty to get holy water. Betty's illness requires me to take her for treatment. I can't see Linda and my only daughter die like this... Forgive me.
I, God... forgive me..."
In the dim church, only the priest's low murmur echoed on the cross.
In the attic above the church, Betty, who was only nine years old, was holding her head, shouting loudly, and rolling crazily on the ground. Next to her, Abigail, who was only eleven years old, hurriedly stepped forward to hug Betty.
, to prevent Betty from crashing into other places.
"Sister Abigail, my head hurts so much, my head hurts so much, and this time there is someone talking inside my head, ah ah ah..." Her petite body, which was less than one meter tall, screamed and trembled.
"Betty, don't cry. It's the witch's bewitchment. My uncle will definitely be able to help you drive out the witch and cure your illness."
"Sister Abigail, am I going to die..."
"No, it won't happen. My uncle said that he can take you to the Holy City next year to receive the baptism and blessing of the bishop. Your illness will definitely be cured."
The eleven-year-old girl kept comforting her nine-year-old cousin. After an unknown amount of time, Betty seemed to be tired before she fell asleep.
She put Betty on the bed, and at this moment, Abigail also felt the whispers repeating in her head.
She only felt that her eyes were red, as if a huge red moon appeared in front of her eyes.
"Get out, witch! Get out of our heads!"
She picked up the broom and waved it around randomly, as if doing so would make the whispers in her mind disappear.
Until the next day, neither Levi nor Carter came back, but on this day, everyone in the entire town of Salem was in low spirits.
Everyone, starting yesterday, felt like there was a devil whispering in their minds, and many people even saw a red moon rising in the sky.
Therefore, a large number of people came to the church early this morning, waiting to pray.
However, this morning another man dressed like a missionary came to the small town of Salem, but this new missionary was dressed in purple, which was completely different from the black and white color scheme of the Catholic priest.
The missionary was followed by many other people in purple clothes with enthusiastic faces. Many people walked three steps at a time and bowed at ten steps, just like pilgrims.
"The end is coming! The world is in danger. The world-destroying witch will release demons into the world. We are all going to die!" The missionary in purple picked up a scepter, danced and shouted loudly in front of everyone.
His scepter is inlaid with a stone that looks like an upside-down spire, and is covered with patterns that look like the helix structure of DNA.
Others waiting for the priest to pray in front of the church didn't quite believe in the new missionary, because the priest had been here for several years, and the residents of the town obviously still believed more in the priest they were familiar with.
It was still dark at this time, the church was not open yet, and the priest and others were probably not awake yet.
But soon, more and more people came to the church, but all the people who came after them looked frightened or crazy.
"The devil is coming, the devil is coming! All my cows are dead!"
"My sheep are also dead, all dead, hahaha, all dead..."
"My sheep's head grows on the body of the cow, and the head of the cow grows on the body of the sheep. This is God's punishment for us. We will all die, we will all die..."
