Chapter 154: a perfect world (1/2)
The words of the elders sounded a wake-up call in the hearts of all survivors.
Although the clearance of the first few teams on the notebook is simple and easy, it is still a super S-grade copy and cannot be relaxed.
So after returning, the survivors had a discussion for the first time.
”Our goal in entering this dungeon is to find the savior predicted by Mr., right?”
Everyone nodded solemnly.
”That being the case, from tomorrow on, we will go to the Pope's reserve to find the child who best fits the image of the savior.”
Hong Lie closed his eyes, ”If we can, let's try to figure out what is going on after the ceremonial ceremony, and why the elder said that the pope will return to the embrace of God.”
”I don't know why, my instinct tells me that this copy is far from being as simple as the surface.”
Unlike several other teams, Guiguzi's old department is obviously much more paranoid.
They seem to have reached a certain consensus in private.
Zong Jiu watched them come to the palace behind the holy city together the next day.
The high priest led them into the hall of the palace. ”All the children are inside, dear guests.”
Some survivors asked suspiciously, ”Why do they wear turbans around their heads and cover their eyes?”
”This is the tradition of our ceremonial ceremony.”
The high priest patiently explained, ”Children with talent must wear blindfolds from childhood, and they can only be removed on the day when the successor pope presides over the ceremony.”
This is a weird tradition. Haven't these children seen what they look like since they were born?
The survivors had doubts in their hearts, but they also had scruples, and they hesitated not to speak.
On the contrary, the high priest seemed to be aware of their concerns, ”It is the godmother Sophia who is taking care of the children here. You can directly consult with her about the specific situation.”
After the introduction of the basic situation, the high priest sent them to the temple and hurriedly retired. Only the survivor and Zong Jiu floating in the air are left.
After arriving in the palace, I don't know if it was because of the memory of the little devil, Zong Jiu finally found that he could control his actions a little bit.
The survivors are still talking to the godmother.
”These children have their own special abilities. They were born with stigmata blessed by the gods. Of the billions of people in the world, there are only 30 children who conform to the oracle and speak with the stigmata. They are. I was taken to the holy city for training since I was a child...”
”But we haven't decided on the pope's candidate, because none of these children have special abilities related to purification.”
Zong Jiu looked back at the survivor who was talking with the godmothers, and slowly floated upstairs.
He remembered what the little devil had said to him that purification was a special ability he was born with.
What are the children's abilities, how can the responsible godmother not know? But why did she say that there is no special ability similar to it?
The doubts in the white-haired young man's heart became more and more serious, and he stepped forward to retrieve it in this memory.
There is a long corridor on the second floor of the palace with serial numbers around it.
Zong Jiu floated past room by room, and stopped in front of the only room door ajar.
Through the gap, he could see the little black-haired boy sitting on the ground inside holding a thick book and reading.
Behind him, sunlight projected in from the window, coating his outline with a hazy holy light, like an angel descending on the world.
The hurried footsteps sounded behind Zong Jiu.
The godmother in a white robe passed through the body of the white-haired young man, hurriedly opened the door, and quickly closed the door of the room.
Seeing this, Zong Jiu quickly penetrated the door like a ghost and floated in to watch.
”Sophia godmother.”
Perceiving someone coming in, the little devil put down the book in his hand and raised his head obediently.
There are many neatly stacked blocks behind him, and each stack of blocks forms a tall castle.
”Hurry up and put on the cloth strips, I'm going to notify others.”
The middle-aged woman named Sophia squatted down quickly, picked up the strip of cloth on the ground, and gently wrapped it around the little devil's head.
The latter's small body trembled insignificantly, ”Godmother...I'm afraid.”
”Good boy, don't be afraid.”
Sophia touched his head. ”Remember what the godmother said to you?”
”remember.”
The little devil said dumbly: ”If they ask me what my special ability is, I will say that I am not afraid of fire by nature.”
”Yes, don't tell them that you have the ability to purify, okay?”
The little devil nodded.
”Good boy.”
Sophia sighed, ”Remember, in any case, no matter what the situation is, you can't disclose it, you know?”
”The godmother will protect you, she will.”
......
Just when Zong Jiu fell into contemplation because of the scene in front of him, the surrounding scene changed.
This memory is not so complete, and there are often jumps.
Perhaps it was because the little devil felt that there was no need to watch things such as minutiae, so Zong Jiu showed only the most important part.
This time, the scene became an uninhabited desert suburb, surrounded by endless sand dunes.
The clean clothes on the boy had become dirty, because the desert at night was too cold, and he squatted and shivered behind the dunes, trying to hide himself.
However, this little trick is not enough for the survivors.
Several teams surrounded the little demon, with dignified faces.
”Brother Hong, he is the savior who has been fortune-telling.”
The notes left by the previous survivors provided them with new ideas, and it happened that there was a fortuneteller in the old ministry, so they deduced a divination on the spot.
Guiguzi is most famous for his ability to spy on secrets. He has such a movable type sign here. There are also many survivors with divination talents under his men. Among them, the divination master who followed them into the perfect world was also hand-in-hand by Guiguzi. Pointed.
”I remember this kid.”
