Chapter 51 The Silent "Do Not Believe in God!"
Qin Lianghan?
Pei Hening's face darkened; he was the culprit responsible for the deaths of Chu Xuange's parents.
If Chu Xuange knew he was still alive, he would definitely chase after him and kill him!
Knowing this person's exact location is definitely good news!
She replied, "Thank you."
[In good spirits]: By the way, I couldn't get in touch with Xuan Ge today. Do you know what he's doing?
Pei Hening frowned and quickened her pace toward the parking lot.
I didn't see Chu Xuange's RV in the parking lot.
Her palms were sweating, and she sent a message to Chu Xuange to inquire about the situation.
Unfortunately, there was still no word from him.
The only thing that's certain is that he's still alive, and his profile picture is still lit up.
——
After Pei Hening left school, the rosy complexion began to fade.
After a while of driving automatically, a Christian church with a cross standing in front of us appeared as a stop.
Pei Hening saw the station bathed in holy light, drove the car inside, and parked it in the parking lot set up on the lawn.
"Welcome player [DibiDibi] to the Highway Church (God). Please remember the following rules carefully."
1. The church contains a nave, altar, prayer area, and choir seating, each with a different function. (These functions are unlocked after you have converted to Christianity.)
"2. When entering a church, you should dress appropriately, refrain from making noise, and respect the ceremony."
"3. There is a chance of encountering a pastor explaining the Bible and imparting doctrines."
4. Waste is prohibited when eating communion in the church.
"5. Players who have not yet determined their faith in God can only stay in the meeting area."
"6. Players may not stay in the church for more than 3 hours."
"Special (Correction): A villain with tens of millions of sin points has appeared in the world. The Highway Police Department and bounty hunters are jointly pursuing him. If you encounter the Highway Police Department, please cooperate with the investigation."
Pei Hening observed her attire and, after confirming that it was appropriate, walked towards the church.
She doesn't believe in God, so she can only stay in the reception area.
The entrance to the reception area was carved with statues of the Virgin Mary and others. Pei Hening glanced at them a few more times, feeling as if the statues were watching her.
His cold gaze swept over her from head to toe, like a leech clinging to her bone, making her feel nauseous!
She instinctively became defensive.
But the idea only lingered in her mind for a moment, then vanished without a trace.
As soon as she stepped into the reception area, she found more than a dozen players gathered there, including men and women, the elderly and teenagers.
They sat in a circle, each with a serious expression, looking like brainwashed believers. Standing inside the circle was a player explaining the Bible.
This player was dressed in a priest's outfit, with a holy cross around his neck, looking very holy.
However, a knife wound that grazed her brow bone distorted the sanctity of her face, making her look strange and awkward.
After finishing his presentation, [God's faithful follower] caught a glimpse of Pei Hening entering from outside the door, and his eyes widened in surprise.
An NPC dressed in a black holy robe carried a bowl of holy water and walked towards Pei Hening.
[God's Faithful Follower] strode up to Pei Hening, raised his hand and smiled at the NPC, saying, "I'll take care of this guest."
Before the NPC could refute him, he immediately adopted a superior demeanor and said to Pei Hening, "May the Lord's peace and grace always be with you, Amen."
"Hello, I am a 'trainee pastor' [a faithful believer in God]. Let me show you around the church."
Pei Hening's ears twitched when she heard his name.
She scrutinized the "faithful believer of God." He was a towering 1.9 meters tall, bald, and with a slightly fierce appearance, dressed in a white robe, he looked rather odd...
"[A faithful follower of God]? That sounds familiar."
Upon hearing this, his old face flushed uncontrollably, his lips moved, but he ultimately offered no explanation.
He abruptly changed the subject: "Well, let me tell you about the church first."
"Come with me."
He led Pei Hening to a sculpture surrounded by many players: "This is a sculpture in our church. Long-term viewing will increase your attribute points."
He added, "Apart from charm points and luck points."
"After you believe in God, you can come to the church every day to sit and enjoy the sculptures, murals, Bible reading, and choir performances, which will increase your four major attribute points."
Pei Hening understood. No wonder after [God's Faithful Believer] finished reciting the Bible, all the players gathered around and carefully admired the sculpture.
Looking at the bustling reception room, she felt a sense of absurdity!
Apart from her and [God's Faithful Follower], all the players present wore happy and contented smiles, as if they were cut from the same mold.
Bizarre, absurd, and terrifying!
Pei Hening carefully reviewed the site rules, and her face darkened.
Neither the site rules nor the words of "[God's faithful follower]" mention anything about what players need to pay in terms of money; it's all about the benefits for players!
—What are the benefits for the site?
Remember, what's free is often the most expensive!
She had to spend money from the initial closed beta test to later going to the site!
Seeing that she remained unmoved and seemed unconcerned about these temptations, [a faithful follower of God] moved his lips and continued, "There are many other items in the church, from healing medicine to holy water that can break curses."
Pei Hening looked him straight in the eye and asked directly, "What is the price of believing in God?"
What price do players have to pay to enjoy so many great things for free?
You should know that she hasn't found any items that can break the curse since the closed beta!
Even though she raised her luck to fifty and drew over eight hundred times at the gym!
The church has these, and players can use them!
According to [the faithful believers of God], as long as you have faith in God, you will have everything.
—His profession is still "trainee pastor".
A flicker of pain crossed [God's faithful follower's] eyes. He led Pei Hening to a quiet corner in the reception area and urged her in a low voice, "You should leave now. Don't go into the church again. Just know that not all stations are harmless."
Pei Hening was full of questions. She asked, "What are your career restrictions?"
Every profession has its limitations. For example, her goal as a "race car driver" is to cover an additional 100 kilometers per day. It's fine now, but in special circumstances such as icy roads or snow blocking roads, the extra kilometers would be a death sentence!
She doesn't believe that there are no restrictions on the profession of "trainee pastor"!
[God's faithful follower] stared at her silently for a while, his eyes churning with pain. He forcefully pushed Pei Hening towards the door!
Before the door to the reception area closed, she saw clearly the silent lip movements of [God's faithful follower].
Do not believe in God!
