Chapter 3205: The Haze of Faraines (13)

When Schiller arrives at the church in the village, he sees an unexpected person here, and that is Batman.

His figure is hidden in the fog, only revealing a dazed outline in front of the withered garden fence before the church, simply so light that he seems about to float away.

The moment Schiller walks out from the corner of the street, Batman turns his head to look at him, but Schiller keenly discovers that Batman's eyes are not focused; he seems to be looking at him, but he hasn't seen him.

Schiller has a bad premonition.

"You came here too." He walks up and says: "I found something very important in Jeff's house, which makes me feel that this matter should be much more serious than imagined."

"What is it?" Batman asks: "What makes you feel terrified and incredible?"

"Don't make such jokes." Schiller says: "You are not a mind-reading master, how do you know I am terrified? Or do you think the church is a good place for flirting?"

Batman turns his head back and says: "You should ask your collar."

After speaking, he walks toward the church gate. Schiller pulls his Roman collar.

The Roman collar worn by Catholic priests is very special. It is a piece of white cloth pulled by the collars on both sides, just sticking to the male's Adam's apple. Every time he speaks, he clearly feels the existence of the cloth, making people feel very uncomfortable.

This is exactly the meaning of the existence of this collar, reminding priests to be cautious in their words and deeds, and to remember God piously enough before opening their mouths.

"You had better not curse out loud." The Transcendent suddenly reminds: "Otherwise it will be a roleplay failure."

Schiller walks up the steps with his mouth pursed silently.

Batman has already pushed open the church door. This church located in a remote small village is also as simple and gray as ever. In the center is a huge cross, and Jesus' head and arms are covered with dust.

Bright moonlight shines through the Gothic pointed window behind the cross, dragging the shadow of the cross very long. Rows of seats are close together. Some seats in the front row have been cleaned very cleanly, and there are footprints that have not melted away.

Before the strange event happened, some strange things had already happened. Someone must have come to the church in a hurry to pray, hoping to get God's protection.

Batman walks to the pulpit. Schiller follows closely behind. He takes the lead in pressing his hand on the "Bible" on the pulpit, and then picks up the "Bible" and opens the first page.

The text recorded on it is exactly the same as the content of the Bible in his impression. Schiller can recite the Bible backward, but for some reason, he just wants to flip through this "Bible" now.

"This is not used by a priest." Batman says.

"You can walk around here." Schiller reminds: "Go to the confessional and the bedroom to take a look, I want to communicate with God here."

Batman looks at him, but it is as if he hasn't seen anything. He turns and walks toward the inside.

Schiller flips through the "Bible," comparing the content with his mind one by one. At first, it seems there is no problem. The content is all correct, basically can be said to be word for word.

But flipping to the back, Schiller sees that some words have been painted over. Only one letter is painted over for each word, so one can still see what the word is, and can also deduce which letter was painted over.

Flipping all the way to the last page, Schiller finds that about a hundred characters have been painted over.

After the order of the characters is slightly passed in his mind, Schiller realizes that the order of the characters has been disrupted, and one must master the correct method to rearrange them.

But Schiller does not want to rearrange them. He can probably guess what the combination of letters will be after arrangement.

First, the number of vowel letters and consonant letters means that the things combined are unlikely to be English, and are more likely to be Latin, and the spells in "Water God Cthaya" are all Latin.

Secondly, Schiller originally thought that Jeff just happened to get a spell from someone, but after finding that book in his house, he understood that Jeff had most likely been contaminated with forbidden knowledge.

People contaminated with forbidden knowledge will have two endings: either they cherish the broom, worrying every day that someone will come to grab their treasure, and finally drive themselves crazy.

Or they must let the forbidden knowledge spread, hoping that the more people who know, the better, even at the cost of their lives to preach, and finally drive themselves crazy.

Schiller looks at Old Siltk as if he is the first type, while Jeff is more like the second type. And Batman says that this kind of "Bible" is not the kind used by priests, so it is highly likely left by Jeff, deliberately using this means to attract attention. Once someone cracks the secret of the characters, they have obtained another forbidden spell.

"Are you sure you don't try to crack it?" The Transcendent asks: "If the cracking is successful, you can get myth skill points, and you can also get a spell."

"There is no need." Schiller says: "I don't intend to deal with this matter in a mythical way, because in the final analysis, this is a human disaster. If things fall on humans, they must be solved in a human way. Relying on magic is not going to work."

"Your view is very special." The Transcendent says: "But it is not unique, because Batman thinks the same way."

Schiller hears that there is something in his words, so he tentatively asks: "Batman has also come into contact with mythical knowledge?"

"He has gone much further than you."

Schiller immediately realizes that Batman might have come into contact with forbidden knowledge. After all, he was the first person to go to the pier, not only likely to run into many Deep Ones, but also likely to run into some other terrifying things.

Thinking of this, Schiller feels a bit worried. He walks quickly from the side door and sees Batman standing at the end of the corridor. Some hallucinations flash by, which is a manifestation of the decline of Sanity.

"What did you see at the pier?" Schiller asks very directly.

"I found the correct application method for Psychoanalysis." Batman seems to answer the question irrelevantly, saying: "At the same time, I came into contact with a magical existence."

Schiller gasps. God bless, don't let it be an Outer God. Even a big octopus would be better. Now they have no means to deal with the arrival of an Outer God. If it comes, it is a TPK.

"What is his name?"

Batman shakes his head and doesn't say. Schiller doesn't know if he is unable to repeat the name or doesn't want to say it, but he reminds: "I hope you haven't been bold enough to communicate with him directly. You haven't, have you?"

Batman shakes his head again.

Schiller breathes a slight sigh of relief, and then continues: "I learned from this book that there are many terrifying existences in unknown places ready to descend at any time. I hope you won't become their accomplice, otherwise you will never be able to escape your guilt."

He feels that his hint is clear enough, and he doesn't know if Batman has listened. Batman's current state is very peculiar, and the whole person has become ethereal.

Batman just said that he found the correct application method for Psychoanalysis. Schiller guesses that he should have put points into this skill, but he also doesn't know what kind of situation could make Batman take the initiative to put points into Psychoanalysis.

"Have you finished reading the 'Bible'?" Batman asks.

"I have finished reading it, but this thing can't be given to you." Schiller puts the "Bible" away directly and says: "This is not me being stingy, I don't think you are the kind of person who would pin hope on religion."

"You saw some things in it that you don't want me to know." Batman says: "Even things you don't want to know yourself, some things you feel might bring disaster."

Schiller sighs and says: "Even if you can, you don't have to be so eager to show me mind-reading, because this is not rare. I spend time with thousands of such people every day. You just need to know it yourself, you don't need to tell me, and I don't have time to listen."

After speaking, he looks at the corridor and says: "Have you investigated the bedroom and the study?"

"Yes." Batman nods and says: "There are some things in the study, do you want to come and see?"

Batman turns and walks forward. Schiller follows behind him. After the study door opens, Schiller doesn't follow Batman into the door, but raises the crowbar in his hand high.

Bang!

"Hiss..." The Transcendent gasps in Schiller's heart, saying: "You really strike with lethal intent?"

"He is very wrong." Schiller puts away the crowbar stained with blood, looks at Batman who fainted after being hit in the back of the head, and frowns deeply.

"I believe he would indeed have to seek help from Psychoanalysis because of temporary distress, and his old friend would help him, but once he is out of trouble, he will quickly solve this trouble."

"Because he is not used to using this kind of method at all. If possible, he will definitely restore his sanity as soon as possible, let everything return to the right track, instead of suddenly converting to this subject that he once treated as theology, and having to show it off to me again and again."

"What on earth is going on?"

Schiller just wants to lower his head to pull Batman, but when he looks up, he sees the scene inside the study.

All the candles are lit, making the room brilliant, and all the walls, floors, tables, and even objects in the study are engraved with blasphemous spells.

"Ugh—"

Schiller lets out a scream, blood flows from his eyes, he hurriedly retreats a few steps, squats on the spot and gasps for a while.

Opening his eyes, he finds that his vision is blood-red, with no signs of improvement. Those blasphemous and terrifying words are still circling in his field of vision. Schiller has no choice but to activate his Requiem skill, forcibly pulling his Sanity up.

After a while, he finally recovers, and Schiller exhales a long breath.

He had anticipated that this might be a trap, because Batman's reaction was too abnormal, but he didn't expect that the guy who confused Batman was so ruthless.

Just now, he only glanced at it with his peripheral vision for a moment. If he had really followed Batman in and was surrounded by these spells, and Batman blocked the door to leave him no way out, then he could really choose his favorite heaven.

After Schiller recovers, he hurriedly drags Batman by his ankles. Because he is worried that other rooms also have dangers, he simply drags Batman to the pulpit.

First, he feeds Batman a painkiller, checks the wound on the back of his head, and after confirming that it won't make him bleed to death, Schiller starts thinking about what on earth is going on. ===== CHAPTER 3206 =====
