Chapter 100: Sir's Wisdom Is Beyond Our Reach
"The entire Paradise has been sealed, and more than three hundred followers have returned to the embrace of the Tri-Deity."
"The financiers that the Church developed in the North Sea have also been uncovered."
"What do you all think about this matter..."
The Sufferer sat cross-legged on the ground, with an expression that revealed neither joy nor sorrow, yet his body was covered with wounds of all sizes, deep enough to expose bone, bloody and mangled.
The statue of the compassionate Blood Mother before him flickered with a sinister red glow.
Clink, clank~
Under that flickering light, dozens of chains suddenly emerged out of thin air, intertwining and crisscrossing in the air.
Except for the No. 1 Spirit Host, the other three High Tier believers were pierced through by these chains, with even their viscera penetrated, their skin torn apart by the chains.
A vast amount of blood surged on the ground, yet their wounds no longer bled, deathly pale. Clearly, the blood within their bodies had almost been drained dry.
The Three Deceits Cult is called the mad cult for a reason.
The reward of this cult is pain, and the punishment is also pain. Any sane person would find this rule problematic, but only the cult followers find it reasonable.
Of course, there is a secret within, but outsiders could never know.
"Master Sufferer, this has nothing to do with us!!"
"It was... it was No. 1 who misled us, that Spirit Host had issues!!" The High Tier cultist quivered in pain.
The Sufferer slightly lowered his brows: "Oh? Kai, go on."
The chains on Kai's body ceased trembling, giving him a moment to catch his breath.
"Today, when the special task force went to the Paradise, I went with Maka and Lin Nan to the Paradise."
"We happened to see the bodies of our fellow believers emerging from the space..."
"At that time, I invoked the Power of the Heart and Spirit to review everything, only then did I discover that the so-called mister from No. 1's words had arrived at the Paradise, and then a believer led him into the Subspace."
"After that, that person came out and was taken away by the special task force..."
"That guy simply wasn't a Spirit Host of the Church, and Li Hu called him junior disciple, junior disciple, you understand?!!"
"Who is Li Hu? He's the captain of the special task force's first team. We were all deceived, all because of your misleading, resulting in the failure of the Paradise plan!"
Kai shouted angrily at the No. 1 Spirit Host.
Paradise was one of the most important links in their plan, now destroyed, causing a major impact on the entire plan, all original calculations and arrangements had to be delayed.
Now they hold the upper hand; if they wait until the myriad races come to observe and the Martial Fortune rises completely, they will lose their advantage.
Due to this, the Sufferer was so furious and punished them.
"No. 1... what do you have to say?"
The Sufferer looked coldly at No. 1.
To be honest, he now wished to also hang No. 1 on the chain to punish him, but he couldn't; Spirit Hosts have a special status in the Church, even though they are just ordinary believers.
But as the purest followers of the Tri-Deity, only the Sect Leader has the qualification to punish them.
Others, regardless of their status, are fundamentally of the same rank as Spirit Hosts.
Therefore, even if the Sufferer had complaints about him, he was helpless.
Listening to Kai's furious questioning, the No. 1 Spirit Host displayed a slight disdainful smile.
His eyes concentrated, and instantly a terrifying Power of the Heart and Spirit swept like a huge wave, directly fixing Kai in place.
"What are you doing!" Kai shouted in terror, feeling he had lost control of his body.
Immediately, No. 1 stretched out his hand and casually manipulated the void.
The next moment.
Segments of memory emerged from Kai's head.
There were memories of Kai casting Divine Grace, of him chanting doctrines, and even... of him playing games on his phone...
Finally, within the memories, the visage of Su Tu emerged.
It was the scene of Su Tu conversing with Li Hu and others. Of course, this was not what Kai saw with his own eyes, but rather the scene he traced back using the Heart and Spirit, which No. 1 had restored.
No. 1 looked at Su Tu, his eyes changing repeatedly, finally a frenzied expression appeared on his entire face.
"Look! You all look!! You dare suspect such a person isn't a Spirit Host??"
"He is the most purely devoted Spirit Host to the Tri-Deity that I've ever seen, his Heart and Spirit always sing praises to the Tri-Deity."
No. 1 raved, tears streaming involuntarily.
However, the Sufferer and others were utterly confused, for they were not Spirit Hosts and could not see the so-called purity.
No. 1 noticed this and coldly snorted.
"Ignoramuses!! Today, I'll allow you to share my vision to prove the mister's innocence!"
As he spoke, with a thought of the Heart, red light covered his eyes, then the red light flew into the eyes of the others.
Subsequently, when the Sufferer and others looked at Su Tu again.
The expressions in their eyes all transformed into ones of shock.
At this moment, in their eyes, that young man's body was filled with extremely intense faith. If the Sufferer's faith was a drop of clear water, then Su Tu's faith was an endless ocean.
Even within that faith, they felt an extremely familiar aura, cold, sinister, terrifying, powerful, it was... the aura of the Tri-Deity!!
Just how steadfast must one's faith be to have even their Heart and Spirit stained with the aura of the Tri-Deity!
Compared to Su Tu, they were hardly Tri-Deity cult followers, at most dabblers.
They finally understood why No. 1 believed in Su Tu so much.
No. 1, seeing their expressions, was filled with arrogance, sweeping his palm to clear the various means.
"Now, do you dare doubt the mister anymore!"
"Even if he really killed those three hundred followers, there must be unknown secrets to us!"
If No. 1 had said this earlier, the Sufferer would have had doubts, but now he nodded in agreement.
A single drop of sweat falling from Su Tu surpassed the combined purity of their faith, how could such a person not be a Spirit Host.
If this is the case, then the story behind this matter is significant.
As for his body being the junior disciple of Li Hu's...
"Mister truly has stratagems, actually parasitizing on Li Hu's junior disciple.."
"Only such a person deserves to be called mister!" No. 1 spoke of Su Tu with worship in his voice.
They had already imagined that Su Tu, for the sake of the Church, deliberately chose this body, which means facing danger at all times, increasing their inner worship by a few degrees more.
If this is the situation... then the Paradise Space must have hidden implications.
"The Paradise Space is a deal made by the Archbishop and Bakalu."
"He used our Divine Thought to construct an avatar in the Paradise Space. That space is completely isolated. What exactly happened to make the mister go on a killing spree...?"
The Sufferer muttered softly, now fully trusting Su Tu.
"Redirect the faith!" No. 1 suddenly spoke.
It immediately drew everyone's attention.
"How despicable the Evil Gods are! Bakalu has long wanted to spread his meme in the present world, seeking followers, but due to His nature, it would cause chaos, so his followers have never formed a scale."
"And Paradise, being a completely isolated space, a single Evil God's avatar is enough to instantly cause our followers to betray their faith, and once these followers returned to the Three Deceits Cult, they would spread His faith."
"Yes!! That's definitely the case!! For sure, the mister with the purest faith saw the followers' betrayal, thus... he purged the heretical backsliders!"
"Then, using these traitors, gained Li Hu's trust, and climbed a step higher to plot significant matters!"
"No!! Maybe, the mister has even more distant schemes that I haven't thought of, his wisdom exceeds mine!!" No. 1's fervent voice reverberated endlessly.
