One Piece: Holy Cult

Chapter 188 Soul Spore (Part [-])
Putting his hands on the dead body, Uriel felt that the bluish-white corpse under his hands, whose body was as cold as ice, was quite unusual.

Although he lost all pulse, could not hear the heartbeat, breathless mouth and nose, it seemed that he died very transparently, but there is one thing that is very doubtful.In such icy and snowy weather, and with such a body temperature, the muscles of the corpse should have been as stiff as ice edges, but where Uriel could touch it, it was loose and soft, no different from a living person.

"This is really very curious."

The strange feeling coming from his hand made Uriel a little more concerned.

It seems that the secret cannot be explored without using divine magic.

The golden flames are like torches, rising in the pupils of the left and right eyes.

Chopper stood aside, paying the most attention to DR. Wu's every move. He was taken aback by the doctor's eyes that suddenly turned golden, and then immediately became extremely envious of this luxurious and high-profile move. .

Divine art, the eye of spiritual vision.

In an instant, the world changed and appeared before Uriel's eyes.

As if penetrated by the rays emitted by a super powerful X-ray machine, the whole world revealed to Uriel countless truths that are invisible to the naked eye after the appearance.

The same is true for the corpse in front of him. Without dissection, all the details inside and outside the body are presented in Uriel's field of vision.

Looking through the scalp and bones, Uriel caught sight of the dead man's brain.

The eyes of spiritual vision have the vision that can even capture energy, and immediately discovered that there are countless tiny currents that are still being transmitted and transformed in the cells of the brain.

"This is?"

There was surprise in Uriel's eyes.

"The brain is still active, that is to say, this person is just in suspended animation."

After staring at the brain for a while, Uriel made a firm judgment in his heart.

The bioelectricity is still active, and the brain activity has not stopped. Of course, this person cannot be regarded as a real death.

"Interesting, then let me see what kind of disease is playing tricks that can turn a living person into this dead state."

The divine power flowed into the eyes, making the light of the eyes of spiritual vision brighter and scorching. Uriel's eyes passed through the dead man's body without hindrance, and saw his soul directly.

Sure enough, since man is not yet dead, the soul still resides in his body.

But compared to his body, his soul doesn't look too miserable.

On top of the illusory and transparent soul, densely covered with a layer of head, big body and small roof like a small umbrella, it is very sensual... a small mushroom!

The turquoise fluorescent light is transmitted from the inside of the small mushrooms, like countless small light bulbs flickering, very dreamy.

But this kind of dreamy light is invisible to the eyes of ordinary people, because they are spiritual light, the light emitted by the spiritual body, and only the ability to see the spiritual body like Uriel's spiritual vision eye can detect them.

The little mushrooms flicker on and off, there is a pattern.Whenever they light up, Uriel finds that the already very illusory soul of the fake dead is even darker and emptier, as if these little mushrooms are absorbing nutrients from the human soul.

"Is this the true face of the plague?"

Uriel speculated.

Immediately, the notes in the eyes of spiritual vision proved his thoughts.

Soul Spore: A parasite of spirits.It can parasitize on the souls of creatures, decompose and absorb the souls as nutrients for its own reproduction.

The truth is revealed!

No wonder Holy Angel Statue and Holy Light Healing spells can't take full effect.Because what is really sick is not the body but the soul of the patient.

Of course, the thinness of the soul will also be relatively reflected on the body, so that there will be an appearance of the body becoming weaker and weaker day by day.

"In this way, even if there is a holy light to heal and make up for the weakness of the body, as long as the root cause of the disease does not go away, once the soul completely dies, the infected citizens of Drum Kingdom will still inevitably end up as a living dead."

After understanding the cause of the disease, Uriel couldn't help feeling a little more sympathetic when he turned his attention to the group of infected people who were celebrating their condition being stabilized.

"DR. Wu, did you find anything?"

Seeing that Uriel had stopped observing the corpse, Chopper came over and asked half curiously and half expectantly.

"The cause has been found!"

Wuju held up his thumbs up.

"So fast!"

Many infected people who were paying attention to Uriel shouted in surprise, they just cheered a few times, how could the doctor find out the cause of the disease?

Only the naive Chopper continued to believe in DR. Wu, and there was a lot more worship in his eyes.

He is not completely ignorant of this plague. You must know that the only two doctors in Drum Country, DR. Shiruluk and DR. Kuleha, have been studying the causes and secrets of the plague since the outbreak of the plague. Haven't even got a clue yet.

"Not only that, but I've even figured out a cure. Let's try it with this old man in front of me first."

Uriel pointed to the dead body that everyone believed to be dead.

"Huh? Isn't he already dead?"

Everyone was shocked.

"It's just suspended animation. The cause of the plague you contracted is not the body, but the soul being parasitized by some kind of parasite. The spots on your body are also the reaction that appears on the body after the soul is absorbed."

He explained the cause of the disease to everyone in detail.

"Soul parasite?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling incredible.

"Do souls really exist?"

Chopper opened his eyes wide and asked everyone's curious questions.

"Of course it exists. Above the sea, there are terrifying figures who use souls as weapons, and even steal life from people's souls."

Uriel's tone was serious, instilling the reality of this world that was not at all scientific to everyone.

"Moreover, I have seen many terrifying evil spirits with my own eyes!"

With a ferocious expression on his teeth and claws, Uriel leaned in front of Chopper's face with a fierce look on his face and said.

"what!"

The little reindeer screamed, "Ghost or something, it's really scary!"

"But it doesn't matter. A good doctor must not only be able to cure physical illnesses, but also be able to cure spiritual illnesses. It just so happens that I am such the best doctor."

"Since I'm here, you can rest assured that I will be responsible for healing your souls. And taking this opportunity, I wonder if you want to see your own souls with your own eyes?"

Uriel dropped another bombshell on the crowd.

He never forgot his real purpose, which was to recruit believers to establish a church.

Allowing mortals to witness the existence of souls is undoubtedly a good means for them to establish god worship.If the soul is real, then the existence of gods is naturally beyond doubt.

Anyone who is curious will not refuse such an opportunity.

Thousands of uncommented versions of the eyes of vision were released by Uriel to the citizens of Drum Country. He only demonstrated this ability once in Faran, so as long as he concealed it afterwards, it would not be known by the world government.

Thousands of pairs of golden eyes fell straight on the body of the corpse that Uriel was about to treat. Countless little mushrooms made everyone's scalp tingle.
