Master comes down the mountain, I don’t know martial arts, but I am an immortal

Hearing the words "Pierre the Great", Joyce felt strangely uncomfortable all over.

He had never interacted with the Pope of Tiluo Island, but as a believer who had joined the Holy Church and worked in the Holy Light Laboratory for many years, he knew many secrets of the Holy Sun Church.

The horrific ceremony when he entered the religion was still vivid in his mind. If the earthquake in Jasmine City hadn't interrupted the ceremony, he would have been living like a zombie now with his lofty and unchangeable faith.

After that, he saw countless believers entering the religion. He watched with his own eyes the chests of young men and beautiful girls were cut open, their entrails were dug out, their bodies were washed, their souls were purified, and then a vow to never rebel was implanted.

And all of this is not the will of God, it is all done by the Pope. Nominally, the believers are loyal to the gods. In fact, as long as the gods do not come to this world in person, the believers are loyal to him, the pope.

Pierre the Great's ambition was not just to be a pope, he dreamed of ruling the entire world.

Joyce looked at Hawkwood, and he felt that he had the same problem as the knight on the horse. Hawkwood is obviously awake, and in a chaotic world where right and wrong are reversed, the more awake a person is, the more miserable he is.

When people see the prophecy "The Emperor's New Clothes", they just think it's funny, but they don't know that we live in such a world. If you stand in the crowd, you are the child who has grown up and will never speak like a child again. Wuji.

What's even more frightening is that the people around you not only praise the emperor's new clothes, but their eyes are full of enthusiasm. They actually saw the emperor wearing beautiful new clothes, exactly as the ministers advertised.

Therefore, you can only be an ostrich and bury your head in the soil of ignorance.

Joyce thought that maybe this was why Hawkwood covered himself in armor.

"Did you join the Holy Cult because of this?" he asked.

"Yes." Hawkwood said, "I was brought back to Tiluo Island by the Pope. I asked him why he saved me, and he said it was because of the wisdom I showed in designing that church and my initiative to transform for love. The courage to become a vampire. At that time, I believed in him, worshiped him, admired him, followed him, and placed all my hopes on him."

"It wasn't until many years later that I understood his true purpose. He didn't want the vampire family to become too big, and wanted to use me to check them. The other thing I didn't understand until many years later was that what the Pope was afraid of was not Dracula is not a vampire, but Lilith, because Lilith is the real immortal and the real angel who fell into the mortal world."

"And I am still immersed in the dream of using the power of the Holy See to rescue Lilith. We built a laboratory in Jasmine City. I am the designer and the director of the laboratory. We are engaged in experimental research related to the Holy Light, and I Then I put a lot of energy into studying the blood of the vampires. I thought that as long as the genetic defects of the vampires were solved and the terrible curse was lifted, Lilith could be saved."

"With the help of the Holy See, we captured many vampires for research. Of course, the most important test subject was actually myself. After numerous experiments, I successfully lifted the curse of the infected vampires from my blood. But I also succeeded in alienating myself into a monster. This alienation technology was retained, improved, and became the later Knights Templar Legion. I became the leader of the Knights and was called the original knight."

Chen Wenxu unconsciously touched his chest and abdomen. The scars there had long been repaired, but his memory was still there.

It turns out that this inhuman body transformation method was invented by the guy in front of me, and the root of the invention of such a terrifying alienation technique was actually for "love"!

This world is so absurd!

Of course, he had to admire Hawkwood for being able to conduct inhumane experiments on his own body for decades or even centuries. He was really a ruthless person!

"The original knight..." Li Muchen read the name, looked at Hawkwood and said, "You became what you are now, probably not only because of experiments, right? Experiments can change your body, but they cannot change your spirit and soul. "

"Yes, the Pope helped me purify myself with Holy Light and gave me many ancient spell scrolls," Hawkwood said.

Li Muchen shook his head: "No, if it were just like this, you wouldn't be able to achieve what you have achieved today."

Hawkwood was slightly startled: "Your words remind me of a person..."

"Who?"

Hawkwood shook his head: "I don't know who he is, I only know that he is an Oriental."

"Oriental?"

"It's a long story. When I successfully alienated myself, I thought I had found a way to save the vampires, so I went to Bratislava to rescue Lilith. At that time, the church in Bratislava had been rebuilt, and they re-established themselves. The sacrificial ceremony was arranged, Lilith was nailed to the cross, and her body was covered with tubes. Her blood flowed along the tubes and into the abyss..."

The scene described by Hawkwood was exactly the same as what happened to Lilith. Lin Tianhao quickly asked: "How did you solve it?"

"I was very impulsive at the time. I first rescued Lilith from the cross and pulled out all the tubes on her body." Hawkwood's voice became dim when he said this. He looked at Lin Tianhao and said, "If I can With the same courage and wisdom as you..."

"She's dead?" Although it was different from his own experience, Lin Tianhao felt the same way, and felt a trace of sadness in his heart. At the same time, he was glad that his Lilith was still alive. Although she was getting older, he could at least accompany her through the last part of her life. happy time.

Hawkwood was silent for a while and said: "In anger, I burned down the church again. I hugged Lilith and prepared to rush to heaven together in the fire. At this moment, the oriental man appeared, saved us, and Tell me, Lilith has the original blood flowing in her body, which is the source of life, so she is immortal. Even if her body dies, as long as there is still a drop of blood, she can be reborn."

"He gave me a set of methods. After I returned to the Holy Light Laboratory, I began to conduct experiments according to his methods. The experiments lasted for many years, and in the process, I gradually became stronger."

Hawkwood looked at Li Muchen and said, "If you hadn't reminded me, I might never have realized that the experimental method was helping me become stronger while refining the original blood."

Li Muchen frowned slightly, feeling that this matter was a bit illogical, so he asked, "Did that person put any conditions on you?"

"He only took away a drop of blood." Hawkwood said. "Lilith's blood was almost drained at that time. He took away one drop, and the rest became my experimental material. He didn't say what he took it for. I didn’t ask. But speaking of it...that person looks a bit like you."
