Chapter 24: Intelligence on the Evil God and Information on China

After all three enemies were eliminated, Luke breathed a sigh of relief. The next thing to consider was the aftermath.

There are two choices: call the police or cling to the church.

Considering that the official authorities do not acknowledge the existence of the supernatural world, if you call the police, you will most likely be treated as a murderer first. Father Moore can give people a greater sense of security.

It just so happens that I didn’t ask clearly about the matter of cults last time, so I’ll ask about it this time.

As for the problem of progressing too quickly, he met two demon hunters yesterday and three cultists today. Unless the other party uses extraordinary abilities, it is basically impossible to sense whether the other party is an extraordinary person.

It’s not like the cultivation novels I read in my previous life, where you can know other people’s cultivation level by just sensing it.

Therefore, the probability of Father Moore discovering that I have become a supernatural apprentice should not be high. Moreover, even if I was discovered, it has been more than a week since I obtained the seeds. I am a genius, so it is understandable that I upgrade a little faster than others.

Luke woke up the frightened Lei Mulin. What a unlucky guy! He had never seen such a big scene in China, with rifles and grenades.

The distraught Lei Mulin followed Luke's figure, taking one step deep and one step shallow to avoid the three corpses and the concrete bricks and stones blown down by the grenade, returned to the dock on the shore, and got on Luke's small yacht.

Destination – Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church!

set off!

Nothing unexpected happened along the way, and Lei Mulin regained his normal sanity in a safe environment. With no other options left, he told Luke everything that happened yesterday.

After hearing what he said, Luke was still frightened. He didn't expect that there was such a cult organization in Broward. If they were allowed to grow and develop, who knows what kind of trouble they would cause.

Inside the Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, after being guided, Luke and Lei Mulin met Bishop Moore.

"Did you witness an evil god ceremony last night?" Moore stared into Lei Mulin's eyes and asked seriously.

Sensing the heavy atmosphere, Lei Mulin was a little nervous. He swallowed and said in a poor manner: "I don't know what it was. I just heard them singing, and then saw some disgusting corpses and tentacles, and then I lost control of myself."

"That's a festival, a ceremony to summon the power of the evil god." Father Moore's expression became more solemn.

Even a transcendent being could be contaminated by witnessing the evil god's ritual, let alone an ordinary person who has no ability to resist at all?
However, this person does look relatively normal, and doesn't look like he has been corrupted by an evil god.
He stared at Lei Mulin, as if he suddenly thought of something, and asked with sudden enlightenment: "Are you Chinese? I mean, the kind of pure Chinese who grew up there."

Lei Mulin instinctively wanted to say that he was Japanese, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly realized that this was a matter of life and death, so he nodded and said, "Yes, I am from Sichuan, China."

Luke was a little puzzled, why? The evil god also engaged in racial discrimination and did not pollute the Chinese?

Moore took out the dark silver cross that Luke had seen before, put his palms together, whispered a prayer, and then placed the cross on Leimulin's forehead.

As soon as the cross fell, it emitted a faint white light, and then a slight black smoke rose from the place where it came into contact with Lei Mulin's skin. Lei Mulin's forehead seemed to be burned by a lighter, and a burning sensation came over him, but he didn't know what was happening and didn't dare to move. His body was stiff and he let the priest do what he wanted.

After the black smoke cleared, the cross returned to normal. "It was indeed in contact with the cult, but the contamination was very light," Father Moore concluded, and said to Lei Mulin, "Attend the church service tonight, then rest in the church for a week, and attend again next Sunday, and the contamination will be eradicated."

Hearing that this handsome priest wanted to take him in for a while, Lei Mulin was overjoyed. He thanked him repeatedly and followed the people arranged by Father Moore to the guest room to rest.

After sending the homeless man away, Luke and Moore were the only ones left in the living room. Luke continued to ask curiously, "Why are the Chinese not easily contaminated by evil gods?"

Moore did not answer, but asked in return: "Have you had a headache, lack of sleep, or mental confusion recently?"

"No, my mental state couldn't be better," Luke responded.

"It seems that the last message did not cause too much mental stress to you." Moore nodded and started talking about the previous topic.

"Have you ever heard of this saying - you can't look directly at the gods, or that the evil gods cannot be named?"

Luke nodded.

Father Moore continued: "This is agnosticism. Our country, including most countries in the world, recognizes the existence of God and is fertile soil for faith."

"God is unknowable, invisible, and indescribable. Therefore, apart from God, the voices and appearances of other evil gods, even the slightest information left behind, are completely incomprehensible to the human mind. The human mind will instantly shut down and fall into madness. This is agnosticism."

"But the Chinese are different. Most of them have been educated in materialism since childhood. The biggest difference between materialism and idealism is the theory of knowledge. They believe that everything in the world can be analyzed and studied, even gods."

"Even if they don't have this clear concept, they still think so subconsciously. People with this worldview are much more resistant to the pollution of evil gods than ordinary people."

"There are actually quite a few people like this in America, but the proportion is much smaller than in China. You know, America is a country that cannot live without faith."

Got it, racial trait, increases the percentage of resistance to evil god pollution.

Then Luke discovered the blind spot: "Then there is no supernatural power in China?"

"Of course not. Materialism does not deny all supernatural phenomena." Father Moore has been studying in a seminary and has studied philosophy very thoroughly. "They just believe that all supernatural phenomena can be studied and mastered."

"In that country, there is even the only official institution in the world that can exist openly and legally. It is called the Special Ability Research Center."

Why is this?
Why was Area 91 in America destroyed, but the research center in China is still intact?
Because of the great river crab god!

Anyway,

There is no longer any soil for any outside supernatural beings to stir up trouble in that country.
