Chapter 1725 Bitter Fruit (XIV)
As the saying goes, it is rare to be confused.
Hilaria's thirst for knowledge obviously brought considerable psychological pressure to her.
So much so that when faced with the doll that was handed over to him, he seemed to have no strength to accept it.
I didn't force anything beforehand, and put the things back to their original places with great understanding.
It's weird enough to have a stranger come to your door with a doll that looks exactly like you, but it turns out the purpose is to use your own body to make a new one.
Even those who have faith can hardly avoid being impacted on their minds.
"So...you are here to kill me?"
Her eyes followed the doll to the side unconsciously. After a moment of silence, Hilaria came back to her senses, looked at Fu Qian and asked slowly.
And perhaps the power of faith finally came into play. After the initial impact, she neither ran away nor struck first.
"It depends."
Before paying, he did not give any meaningless consolation, but thought about it seriously.
"Because there are four more such tools, theoretically, I could try to pick other targets as well."
…
The person he was talking about before paying was undoubtedly the bride and the others.
It's a pity that this statement seems to have caused greater psychological pressure on Hilaria.
After all, this glimmer of hope is achieved through something like death transfer.
Although Fu Qian's tone was calm, it still made people dare not doubt the authenticity of this statement.
"Who are the other four people?"
But in the end Hilaria showed her strong side.
Even asking, he did not retreat but advanced. He walked to the seat opposite Fu Qian and slowly sat down.
"I don't know their names, but there is a middle-aged man wearing a felt hat, a neat old lady, a strong young man dressed like a miner, and one younger than him, A bride with a slightly unrestrained spirit..."
He did not refuse the request. He recalled the scene of the healing dream and briefly introduced the four auxiliary personnel.
"Just saying that, I'm not quite sure who you are referring to——"
Hilaria, who was listening attentively, finally shook her head after her eyes flickered for a while.
"The one with the hat is sitting where you are now, and here."
However, her helplessness was interrupted instantly by Fu Qian.
He gestured towards Hilaria's feet with his chin, then turned around and pointed in three directions in succession.
"Here, and here..."
"I saw them in a special dream. They gathered in this building. They are obviously devout believers of Lord Akons. Does this help you remember something?"
…
"Pious believers...they told you?"
It was obvious that this supplementary explanation had a great impact on Hilaria, so much so that she couldn't help repeating Fu Qian's words with mixed emotions.
"Yes, most people are still very enthusiastic. I had a brief exchange with them..."
Nodding seriously before paying.
"The one sitting here with you can't help but stick to the statue of God. His firm faith is touching."
hehe……
Although there was almost no sound, Hilaria could still be detected laughing.
"That's really a beautiful scene... But if that's the case, where was I sitting in that dream?"
The next moment she even asked in an introverted manner.
"You're not here, you're down there."
…
"And to be honest, they seem to question your belief in Lord Akons and disdain to be associated with you."
…
To sow discord and grasp the key points has always been the core.
Fu Qian believed that if it were just a few curses and criticisms, it would most likely not be harmful to Hilaria who had been alone for so long.
However, whether loyal believers are questioned about their beliefs or disloyal apostates, the level of strength is undoubtedly not the same.
Combining this with the previous death substitution, Fuzen is undoubtedly very interested in how Hilaria's reaction will change.
As we walked along the way, we could vaguely see that this place seemed to be a town that prospered due to mining.
On the one hand, it can explain the downcast brother's clothes. On the other hand, the social structure of this kind of place is generally simpler.
This abandoned faith should undoubtedly play a rather important role in its operation.
Therefore, I don’t think it is a waste to give this stickler some stimulation appropriately.
"Is that what they said? I'm not too surprised..."
Although it seems to have the opposite effect.
After a long, waxy silence, Hilaria not only did not get more excited when she spoke again, but instead entered a kind of calm relief.
“The eternal, unanswered cry is a more painful experience than facing the abyss, especially when you are in darkness.”
Instead of angrily spitting out the addresses and names of several abandoned believers and using them to complete the execution, she even expressed her understanding of their feelings.
"This place is dead, even its name..."
"There are fewer and fewer people, and everything is crumbling and decaying. I can't remember the date for a long time...The darkness will swallow everything sooner or later."
Shaking her head slowly, Hilaria stared at the dark night outside through the colored windows on the wall.
…
Yes, he looks a bit like a saint.
Sure enough, if you want to persevere in decline, you can't just rely on fanaticism.
"But you still stayed."
Although the last believer Hilaria's stress reaction was too flat, Fu Qian didn't mind it, and even looked outside with her.
"In addition, I heard that it was not even a simple irregular day and night switch. When darkness falls, there will really be special creatures wandering inside, and its name cannot even be discussed. Do you know this... or do you know the name of 'it'?"
Fu Qian sounded like he had high hopes for her.
"I don't know... I have never walked in the dark."
Unfortunately, Hilaria shook her head calmly and firmly in an instant.
"Although I did hear some special sounds, they were obviously only from humans. I don't think that can prove the situation you said, let alone get a name."
"Makes sense."
Fu Qian obviously agreed with this statement, but the next moment he blinked and his expression suddenly became weird.
"So - do you know my name?"
"You..."
At first, she didn't seem to react to why Fu Qian asked this question together, but the next moment, Hilaria's pupils suddenly dilated, and she suddenly realized that the other party had come from the darkness.
Unfortunately, before she could even say anything else, her face and the black veil were shattered by an invisible impact.
