Pauls hurriedly picked up his magic weapon, which was a silver dagger that looked like a cross. Pauls did not hold the short hilt of the sword with his hand, but pinched the sword. His palm was directly cut open by the sword blade. The blood did not drip down, but solidified on the dagger. The dagger symbolized the cross. The blood stained on the cross was the holy blood of Jesus, which could protect him against some magic.
Pauls opened the door and walked straight out, but he soon felt something strange, because the street was quiet. It was not the noisy people here, but the sounds of cats and dogs. The sounds of insects and even the footsteps of night watchmen patrolling at night have all disappeared. This is by no means a scene that should occur under normal circumstances.
"No!" Pauls stopped. Soon he discovered that the Zhongzhou team that had already left was actually hiding in a dark corner nearby. When he stopped, these people all appeared and directly He surrounded.
"Pauls, actually we noticed something was wrong with you from the very beginning. Since Evelin said in the letter that they were leaving in a hurry, and their identities could be discovered at any time, how could they entrust the letter to others in that case? What? The best way is to hide the letter with magic.
And if the letter left by Evelin is discovered by her enemies, and her enemies want to find out what is described in the letter, the best way is to wait and see! So the question is, are you from the English Puritan Church, or are you a remaining member of the Golden Dawn? "Chu Li asked directly.
Pauls didn't want to answer this question. He gritted his teeth and held the cross dagger hard. Blood continued to flow on the dagger. He also planned to make a last ditch effort.
However, in the next moment, the dagger flew away from his fingers. The huge force in that moment almost cut off his fingers. With their fingers connected to their hearts, Pauls felt huge pain and he couldn't help but roar. stand up.
Chu Li also got the cross dagger. Qi Teng looked at it for a while, frowned and said, "This is not a magic weapon, it's just an ordinary cross-style dagger."
"This is magic performed with the help of idol theory. Idol theory means that the replica can borrow part of the power of the original. The magic you use is to use the blood-stained cross of Jesus to block the invasion of other magic, but as long as you use any A spear, named the Spear of Longelus, can easily pierce you, right?" Chu Li asked, then used his mental power to separate the blood on it, and threw the cross dagger back on the ground.
Pauls was still partially conscious under the severe pain. He did not try to pick up the dagger, because Chu Li's statement was correct. This is also the biggest weakness of idol theory magic. As long as you know the power he used, The source can be found in mythology. Although the magic of the cross and holy blood can resist most other demons, it only needs a spear to kill him.
Moreover, the magician from the East opposite him was even more powerful. He did not need any spears or any other magic. He could easily take away his cross dagger without even moving his fingers. He could not imagine such a person. What is the possibility of defeating the other party? Maybe the other party is the kind of person with 'talent'? A born saint, a heavenly savior.
Pauls murmured and asked: "Why, why must you help Aleister Crowley? This is the most despicable person and the most evil person. His existence is a blasphemy to the Lord!"
When Chu Li saw this, he looked directly at Zhan Lan. The other party directly planned to hypnotize Pauls. After a few seconds, Pauls's eyes became lifeless, but soon, Zhan Lan's brows also frowned.
She said in the spiritual link: "I got the reason why he hates Aleister from Pauls' memory, because his wife Leila is seriously ill and must receive magic treatment every year, otherwise she will not be able to maintain a healthy body." And soon died, and Pauls was once a member of the Golden Dawn. Later, the Golden Dawn disbanded, and the other party knew the Archbishop's prophecy that Aleister would cause all magic to disappear, so he hated Aleister so much. tower. 』
"Hmm..." After hearing this, the people in the Zhongzhou team became a little silent. They originally thought it was just an ordinary 'enemy'.
To be honest, ever since Team Zhongzhou entered the world of reincarnation, their judgment of 'enemies' has been very clear. The zombies and lickers in the first reincarnation world, the aliens and Nurgle in the second reincarnation world, and the aliens and Nurgle in the third reincarnation world. Kayako and Knocker in the world of reincarnation, Team Inzhou and Immortun in the fourth world of reincarnation.
These enemies are either completely human enemies, or they are in opposition to the Central Continent Team. For someone like Pauls who was an enemy of the Central Continent Team for what he loved, this was the first time they had encountered such an enemy.
"There is a first time, and sooner or later we will encounter a second, third, and fourth time. We are not the savior. Even the real savior cannot save everyone, because the world is inherently unfair and unfair. It’s unjust. We are only acting to keep ourselves alive and to seize the interests of the Zhongzhou team..." Chu Li said in the spiritual link. At this point, Chu Li is no longer confused, let alone because of the other party. It was pitiful to give up the rights and interests of the Central Continent Team, and even put the Central Continent Team into possible danger.
Zhao Yingkong was used to this. She was a person living in darkness. She took out the small bell sword and prepared to directly understand the pitiful magician in front of her. However, at this time, Chu Li changed the topic and said: " Therefore, when we encounter a real threat, even if the other party is a 'good guy' in the general sense, I will not show mercy, but this Pauls is not such a threat. 』
Chu Li directly asked Zhan Lan to lift the hypnosis on Pauls, and then he said to Pauls: "I know you love your wife Leila, so we can save her, not by magic, but by science. She Is the disease she is suffering from tuberculosis? With current medical technology, this is basically a disease that cannot be cured, especially since she has been ill for a long time. Even using magic can only delay it, but I say we can We saved her because we have medicine and technology in our hands that are far ahead of this era. Yes, we have a specific drug that specifically treats tuberculosis!"
Chu Li said this and glanced at Zheng Zha. The other party took the medicine directly from Najie's hand. The Zhongzhou team now has many medicines that specialize in treating various diseases. They also exchanged these medicines for corresponding information, even in reality. China in the world also has a share. You must know that the prosperity of a country does not only depend on what powerful technological weapons the country has, but on whether the country's science and technology can make its people happy and healthy.
Chu Li directly took a bottle from the other party, but instead of giving all the medicine to Pauls, he only took out half of the medicine and said under the longing eyes of the other party: "One bottle of medicine can cure tuberculosis." , but we can’t give them all to you!”
"...What do you want me to do? If this bottle of medicine can really cure Leila's disease!" Pauls was silent for a while and responded in a hoarse voice.
"Are you a member of the Church of Necessary Evil? You serve that archbishop. What is that archbishop's name?" Chu Li asked directly.
"Lola Stuart..." Pauls had no intention of concealing information for his immediate boss. If he could get a bottle of medicine, and if that bottle of medicine could really cure Layla, then there would be nothing wrong with him. It is necessary to remain in the Church of Necessary Evil.
"Big devil!" Chu Li said in the spiritual link: "She should be a demon summoned by Mathers to destroy Aleister's life and help him take revenge. She once tried to take over Aleister's body before, but failed. .
Later, she chose to sneak into the English Puritan Church, hoping to use the power of the Cross to achieve her goals. And if I guessed correctly, she is not an archbishop, but the highest bishop currently registered in the Puritan Church. Probably to paralyze Aleister Crowley, right?
A supreme bishop is inexplicably hostile to him. A magician like Aleister will not remain indifferent. Once he starts an investigation, it is very likely that he will find out some truth. After all, Laura's true identity cannot withstand investigation. An ordinary person will not be indifferent. Archbishop, this identity may be just right. 』
Chu Li said a few words, and then said to Pauls: "I want you to sneak into the Church of Necessary Evil and collect information in the church, including Laura Stuart's personal information, but mainly to protect your own safety. ! These medicines are enough for your wife to take for half a year. Within half a year, we will return here. At that time, after exchanging information, we will give you the remaining half bottle of medicine."
Pauls agreed, but he did not immediately trust the Central Continent team. Instead, he first let his wife Layla take one pill. One pill of this special medicine was effective on the spot. Leila immediately said that she felt much more relaxed after taking the medicine. Seeing this, Pauls made up his mind.
He asked the Central Continent team to hypnotize him and Layla again, but to leave some mental hints for him to secretly pay attention to the needed information, "Being a spy in the Church of Necessary Evil is not an easy thing. If I remember that I am If you are a spy, you will be discovered one day. The safest thing is only if you don’t even know your identity!"
Regarding Pauls' words, Chu Li also agreed. Pauls had completely forgotten his identity before and was a magician used by the Necessary Evil Church to investigate Evelin's letters. This resulted in the Central Continent team not discovering his identity before. It wasn't until Chu Xuan saw the letter that he first noticed something was wrong.
The next day, Pauls got up and checked the secret compartment again. The letter was still there. His wife had also gotten up and took a new medicine prescribed by the doctor. Pauls asked about his wife's condition. Then he went to work with his briefcase, passed through the flow of people, and entered the bank. Finally, he came to the underground of the bank through a secret passage, which is the real location of the Church of Necessary Evil.
At this time, the Zhongzhou Team and the others had already left the British border, and the Zhongzhou Team's near-earth vehicle was sailing all the way across the sea. They did not intend to enter France. This country also has powerful magical forces in the forbidden world. Anyway, it has near-Earth aircraft, so they planned to bypass Spain and Portugal, enter the Mediterranean directly from the Strait of Gibraltar, and finally reach Sicily.
After the team led by Chu Li arrives in Sicily, the remaining people will continue to enter the Indian Ocean through the Red Sea and finally reach China. This is the more appropriate movement method and route after discussion by the Zhongzhou team.
The scenery on the sea basically remained unchanged. Finally, when he arrived in Sicily, Chu Li first obtained his identity certificate from a local official through Zhan Lan's hypnosis, and then he took Qi Tengyi with him to find Aleister. Whereabouts.
He did not take away other members of the Zhongzhou team, because if there was a fight, it would be easier for Chu Li to escape with only one person. The rest of the Zhongzhou team gathered together to maintain great fighting ability.
Aleister is relatively well-known here in Sicily. He regularly publishes magazines and periodicals to promote his Thelema Monastery, so Chu Li found the location of the monastery without any effort.
When he came to this monastery, he found that it looked a bit dilapidated. It was more like an ordinary residence than a monastery.
But when Chu Li approached, he immediately felt something different. It seemed that this place was in a completely different 'phase' from the outside world? He might be able to use this word to describe it, but it might not be very accurate.
In this monastery that has been specially transformed by Aleister, it is a special world that is completely different from the outside world. When he comes here, Chu Li feels that his spiritual power is particularly active. He seems to be a little ready to move, and wants to escape from this place. If you have an orifice, you will definitely have a more special experience than other places.
As if reading Chu Li's thoughts, a voice said from a place not far away from him: "Whatever you want to do is your law. Love is a law and is also controlled by the power of will. The so-called human They are all stars. Since you have such desires and impulses in your heart, why not act in accordance with this desire? Go ahead and act like this! You can see your true will!"
When Chu Li heard this, he turned around and looked over. That person was Aleister Crowley, undoubtedly the greatest magician of the twentieth century. The moment Chu Li saw him, he felt that this person Incomparable profound knowledge and wisdom.
When Crowley saw Chu Li, he also showed a smile. A treasure, no doubt a treasure. His soul shines like a bright gem. This is not like a saint, because the mark is so similar to the son of God. The characteristics of the Son of God are attributed to the authority and power of the Son of God through the theory of idols.
Rather, he has such a pure and brilliant soul. Such a person should learn his own Thelema. He himself is the best proof that the age of Horus has arrived!
