This is a nightmare.

Walking among the buildings filled with death and blood, Fang Zheng finally discovered the darkest secret of the Healing Church hidden here.

Here, Fang Zheng found that apart from the hunters, the most common people were a group of "patients". Their common feature was that each person's head was wrapped in a cloth bag, and the situation inside could not be seen at all. But Fang Zheng was able to learn from those

From the way the bag squirmed, it was clear that the thing contained inside the bag was definitely not the "head" he recognized.

As for what their heads looked like... Fang Zheng wisely chose to ignore it.

From the information in the laboratory building, Fang Zheng finally understood what the Healing Church was doing.

Although Lawrence and William broke up due to ideological reasons, this does not mean that Lawrence does not agree with William's approach. He is just unwilling to give up everything just by saying "fear of the blood of the ancient gods" as William said. And.

In fact, Lawrence's ideas are consistent with William's. He wants to elevate humans to a higher level by improving the "inner eye" in the human brain.

In other words, Lawrence's core idea is still William's.

To do this, they injected some people with a certain liquid into their brains.

Of course, these people were not randomly selected. Through lengthy experiments, Lawrence found that some people showed good adaptability after injecting the blood of the ancient gods. Not only that, their blood seemed to be able to interact well with the blood of the ancient gods.

Fusion produces a very unique and powerful healing effect.

Therefore, the Healing Church gathered these people, injected them with the blood of the ancient gods, and extracted the "improved" blood from their bodies that was fused with the blood of the ancient gods as the main source of "blood therapy."

After seeing this, Fang Zheng finally understood why the Healing Church had so much blood for blood therapy... It took them a long time to build a bunch of human blood banks!

It's true when you think about it. After all, humans and ancient gods can't understand each other. As you keep pumping, maybe one day the ancient gods won't give you a mouthful and you'll be dead. But drawing blood from human bodies is obviously safer.

, and more controllable.

However, for those in the Healing Church, those people are not just used as a waste of blood. These people's good adaptability to the blood of the ancient gods means that they can better feel what the blood of the ancient gods brings to them.

Knowledge and mysteries. They can listen to the voices coming from the depths of the blood of the ancient gods, and feel realms and levels that mortals cannot understand...

From one of the big heads that could communicate, Fang Zheng learned that these people were once called "Blood Saints" and that they were the source of the human blood bank, and he was very convinced that they could use these powers to become higher-level beings.

According to Big Head, after they first show their adaptability to the blood of the ancient gods, they will be named "Blood Saints" by the Healing Church, become human blood banks, and donate blood to others for free. In return, these

Blood Saints will be eligible to be injected with more blood of the ancient gods, and they can feel the presence, sounds and images that others cannot.

But with the increase in the input of the blood of the ancient gods, these blood saints also began to change. Their heads became bigger and bigger and became "indescribable". At this time, they could no longer continue to live outside and interact with each other.

Work. They will come here as "patients" and then become guinea pigs for the Healing Church.

According to the records that Founder searched, the heads of these blood saints will get bigger and bigger, and eventually break away from the body and become an independent life... Of course, they are also unsuccessful failures.

In addition, Fang Zheng also learned two things.

The first thing is that there seems to be a person in charge here named Maria. Logically speaking, these Blood Saints have become experimental subjects for the Healing Church, and they should hate the Church. But this is not the case.

The big heads that Founder met, whether they were rational or not, all respected and loved a person named Ms. Maria. From what they said, it seemed that Ms. Maria had been trying her best to appease their pain.

, and allow their hearts and souls to calm down...

Well, it's like being a doctor caring for mental patients in a mental hospital.

And the second thing is... these big heads all mentioned "the deep dark place of the deep sea" and the sound of water flow like "tick-tock-tock" without exception. They were attracted by this sound, and they were completely addicted to it.

, simply unable to extricate themselves.

It seems that if you want to know the secrets and truth of all this, you have to go to the lady named Maria.

And she was right in front of her.

"boom."

A swollen, blue monster fell in front of Fang Zhong. It had almost completely lost its human shape. Its head and body were completely fused together, turning into something that looked more like a piece of limbs.

A rectangular rice cake-like thing.

Failure product......

Watching the monsters in front of him turn into pus and blood, Fang Zheng murmured to himself that he had learned from the data that these four strange monsters were the final messengers used by the Healing Church to contact the ancient gods, but unfortunately they

They also failed. While transforming and losing their human form, their thoughts also transformed into existences that humans cannot understand.

And this sunflower field on the roof is their final destination.

Glancing at the completely dead failure, Fang Zheng withdrew his gaze. Regardless of whether this was a nightmare or not, he had seen enough monsters along the way. Although until now, Fang Zheng didn't know why he was

When you come here, you must know that according to William, he should go to the center of the lake to eliminate Rohm and relieve the endless night of hunting.

But here, it is obviously a completely different world.

Perhaps the biggest secret of the Healing Church is hidden here, but what does this mean to Fang Zheng? He is not interested in the secrets of the Healing Church. In fact, every organization has its dark side, and no matter how noble an ideal is, it will inevitably be stained with blood.

The same goes for the dark and square Tiandao Palace. He basically leaves all the dirty work to the Zerg. In fact, what the Zerg does in the iron-blooded world is not more noble than the Healing Church, and it will not be affected by it.

Even greater. In essence, there is no difference between the two sides, except that Founder did not choose his own race as the experimental subjects like the Healing Church.

After all, all this has passed.

"Squeak-"

Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, pushed open the door in front of him, and walked into the room. In front of him was a wide hall with candles lit on both sides, and on the wall directly in front of him, there was a huge metal clock inlaid on it. A man in a dress

A woman with beautiful blond hair in a hunter's uniform sat on a chair and stared at Fang Zheng quietly.

"A visitor? How unexpected."

Her voice was calm and steady, sounding like the warm spring breeze. Looking at the woman in front of him, Fang Zheng asked tentatively.

"Are you...Ms. Maria?"

"Yes."

The woman nodded slightly, then looked at Fang Zheng.

"Welcome to this nightmare. How do you feel when you see those bestial patients and the filthy wards in the church? I know what you did to them. It's not your fault. The nightmare has taken over them.

, and now, they have finally gained relief. And what about you? How do you feel about all this?"

"Thinking...?"

After hearing Maria's question, Fang Zheng thought for a moment and shrugged.

"I think...it's okay."

"………good?"

Faced with Fang Zheng's unexpected answer, Maria couldn't help but be stunned. She had been prepared to wait for the other party's angry accusations or curses about the dirty and dark secrets within the church, but she didn't expect it at all.

The young man in front of me actually gave him such an unexpected answer.

"It's okay...what do you mean?"

"It's just okay."

Facing Maria's rhetorical question, Fang Zheng spread his hands.

"Every organization has its dark side. Only innocent children will think that everything is bright and beautiful. However, when we are immersed in darkness, aren't we just protecting those children's beautiful expectations for the world? Moreover, he said

To be honest, I have seen more cruel experiments than the Healing Church. Maybe to you, what the Healing Church does is unacceptable. But in my opinion, at least it is all based on the consent of both parties.

It may be crazy, it may be ugly, but at least the people who make the decision are adults with the ability to judge for themselves, right?”

"this………"

Hearing this, the woman couldn't help but be speechless.

"That's true, but...the pain they endured..."

"The pain they have experienced is also the result of their choices. To be fair, at least this choice was made by themselves. Madam, the evil and darkness you call are far from what I have seen.

It's not worth mentioning, have you ever seen those innocent and immature children being sent to the operating table amidst the malice of adults? In order to record the process of them becoming monsters, these adults will hurt their bodies again and again, exhausting their energy.

Torturing them in various ways just to record some data? Those children suffered torture and suffering, but they did not get even the slightest sympathy. Not only researchers, but also ordinary people could abuse and harm them arbitrarily.

Without worrying about any punishment? Those children's cries and prayers only resulted in being hurt again and again? Have you ever seen these?"

"……………………"

After hearing this, Maria was completely stunned and didn't know what to say.

Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.

"So you see, this is nothing compared to what I'm talking about."
