Infinite Stream Metaverse

Chapter 87
After the plastic goblin Upton Dupont was thrown into the castle by Fu Chenghai, he landed on his face with a "pia ji", and the big plate made of synthetic resin hit the floor tiles of the castle. He quickly got up and looked around. environment.

The top floor of the castle was empty, and there was no one there. The doll found a stone ladder leading to the lower floor, and walked down quietly on tiptoe.

……

Outside the castle, in the narrow alleyway between the two houses, three people crouched furtively here.

In the dark night, there were only sporadic fighting sounds in Biertan Village. The fighting among the reincarnations had gradually subsided. No one spoke, and the scene was quiet for a while.

In the silence, Zhang Yuning suddenly asked:
"After you go in, what are you going to do?"

Fu Qihai raised his head, knowing that Zhang Yuning was asking him, he said:

"Make a decision based on the information fed back by Upton, but if you insist, soldiers will block you, water will cover you, that's all."

Zhang Yuning asked:
"Have you ever thought that no matter what the message from Upton is, we have no way to seal the demon Valak anymore, we don't have the blood of Jesus, and the monastery was blown up, if we find the one who summoned Valak The ancient book of ceremonies may be able to be deduced based on the knowledge of demons recorded in the book, but there is no book now."

Fu Qihai took a deep breath.

That's right, what Zhang Yuning said is the truth, the sealing method in the movie is no longer feasible.

Fu Qihai clenched the black tile-steel sword in his hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Then kill, kill a way out, kill a dawn."

Zhang Yuning shook her head lightly and said:
"You said it yourself, the Wagang sword in your hand can only indirectly harm Valak by killing the human beings possessed by Valak, and cannot directly attack ethereal spirits and ghosts, Valak As long as you don’t possess a human being, you can’t do anything about him.”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Yuning gently asked another question:
"Besides, have you thought about a question? If Ron Bentham and I were also possessed by Valak, would you choose to kill us?"

Upon hearing this question, Ron immediately looked up at Fu Qihai eagerly, wanting to know his answer.

Fu Qihai was silent, paused, and said in a low voice:
"Will do."

Fu Qihai did not choose to deceive his teammates. He is not Constantine, the hell detective, nor the Warrens, the protagonists of the Conjuring universe. Fu Qihai does not know any exorcism. Choose to kill them all.

As long as it hurt Valak.

"Uh..." Ron Bentham's face was a little ugly. He knew that what Fu Qinghai said was realistic and the only way, but it was still difficult to accept for a while.

Zhang Yuning said:
"Actually, there is another way to break the game."

Zhang Yuning remained expressionless, and said slowly in a cold voice:
"Although I haven't watched the movie "The Nun", I still have some research on horror movies, including the category of European and American horror movies that the Conjuring Universe belongs to. "The Nun" belongs to the prequel movies of the Conjuring Universe. As for other movies in the universe, I can tell you with certainty that the spiritual core of The Conjuring universe is a religious metaphor and the universal values ​​of the Christian world in Europe and America."

The universal values ​​of the European and American Christian world... Fu Qihai chewed these words repeatedly, looked thoughtful, looked at Zhang Yuning and said:

"Go on."

"Didn't you notice that up to now, nuns, priests, monasteries, inverted crosses, suicide, the blood of Jesus...these elements are full of strong religious taste, and Wen Ziren's spiritual universe and other works such as "The Exorcist" "It's different from movies that satirize religion. The core of The Conjuring universe is to praise and promote Christian beliefs, and to oppose atheism and other religious beliefs. The protagonists of the Conjuring series of films are the Warrens, who are officially recognized by the Vatican as investigators of folk supernatural events. They The core weapon against demons is not complicated exorcism methods and rituals, but devout belief in God, which is their greatest weapon against evil.”

She continued:
"Each different horror movie universe has a different way to break the situation. The core logic of Chinese supernatural horror movies is to pay attention to a grievance with a head and a debtor. The key to breaking the situation is to let the evil spirit stop its obsession; Thailand Influenced by Buddhist culture, supernatural horror movies pay attention to a karmic cycle, good and evil are rewarded; Japanese supernatural horror movies are based on their unique culture of resentful spirits, even if they avenge the resentful spirits, they still carry extreme hatred and Evil thoughts are basically unsolvable."

Fu Qihai nodded frequently. Zhang Yuning’s practice of jumping out of the movie plot itself and examining the plot of the reincarnation world from a higher dimension and wider perspective is very similar to his own. He also used this method to analyze the Warhammer 40K universe.

But to no avail.

Zhang Yuning concluded:
"And to find a way to break the situation in the spiritual universe that extols the Christian faith, we must first have a very devout Christian here."

Fu Qinghai was the first to shake his head: "Let me say first, I am not, I am a firm materialist and atheist, in my opinion, even if there are gods in the world, gods are just a higher-dimensional materialistic form of existence that's all. .”

When Fu Qihai was digging the grave, he pulled out a cross as a hoe, how could he believe in God.

"Me neither." Zhang Yuning said lightly.

The two looked at Ron immediately.

Ron Bentham hesitated for a moment, and said hesitantly:

"Uh...Actually, I believe in God, but I only believe in it once in a while. When I encounter terrible things, I think about it. In this way, my previous thought was that there is no loss if I believe in it anyway, but if I don't believe it, I may encounter ghosts. would not be protected."

"You are not even considered a shallow believer." Fu Qihai concluded.

"You belong to Pascal's theory." Zhang Yuning said.

"What is Pascal's theory?" Fu Qinghai asked.

Zhang Yuning said: "The theological theory of the 17th century French philosopher Blaise Pascal, the original words are: a rational person should believe in the existence of God and live by it, because if God does not exist, then neither will those who believe in him." There is nothing to lose, but if you don't believe in God, and God exists, then the loss is very great, because everyone who doesn't believe in God will go to hell."

"Also known as Pascal's Wager."

Fu Qihai understood. This is a bit similar to some Chinese aunts who burn incense and worship at temples. It is tantamount to analyzing investment risks and expected returns in terms of faith.

None of the three people present was a devout believer, so there was no way to break the situation in the soul-calling universe.

The scene fell silent again.

At this moment, the sound of rustling water suddenly attracted the attention of the three of them.

Fu Qihai stood up, went out from the alleyway, and looked into the street.

On the streets of the village, in the cracks of the houses and in the depressions of the stone slabs, thin crimson blood flows continuously. These thin blood flows slowly gather together and become trickles. The flow is approaching the castle.

It's blood, the blood in the bodies of all the dead villagers and reincarnations in Biertan Village!

Fu Qihai was shocked.

Fu Qihai stretched out his foot to step on the blood flow, and the blood flow automatically crossed his shoe and continued to flow towards the castle.

If you think about it with your toes, if such a vision appears, it must be that someone is performing some evil ritual in the castle.

This game is finally closing!
……

At the same time, inside the gloomy and dark castle.

A small, big-headed plastic doll was leaning against the wall, step by step, carefully walking out of a dark corner.

He tiptoed and slowly approached a hall.

In the hall, a pale middle-aged man in an elegant windbreaker, with a shiny back combed his hair, was kneeling in front of a tall ghost nun, and said in a low voice:

"Master Valak, the ceremony has already begun, please enter my body, so that, as I promised you before, you will endow me with supreme and powerful power, and I will take you out of this universe and go to the Spread the omniscience and evil of hell to more universes.”

The ghostly nun with a black and gray face looked down at the man kneeling in front of her, with a satisfied smile on her lips, and said:

"Very well, Rusfan, although the blood of Dracula in you is weak and heterogeneous, and you are a pitiful and ridiculous low-level blood, but based on your stronger execution and determination than Duke Santa Cata, I don't mind giving you a stronger bloodline." The power of hell, the pure power from hell, the evil power that is far more pure than the power of Dracula in your blood."

Lu Sifan, who was kneeling on the cold marble floor, was so excited that his shoulders trembled slightly. Although Valak's words "low-level blood" made him feel a little humiliated, if he could gain more powerful power, all these plans would be All this layout is worth it!
Upton Dupont, who was hiding behind the corner, was listening all the time, and his little red mouth opened wide.

Suddenly, the ghost nun raised her head, looked around, and said in a deep voice:
"I feel that besides you, there is a soul here."

What?There is another soul... Lu Sifan immediately got up from the ground when he heard the words, and looked around.

This is an empty gray-white stone hall with a high dome supported by several thick columns.

Lu Sifan searched around the empty hall with gloomy eyes, and his feet moved very fast. After a while, he found and picked up a doll behind a corner.

The workmanship of this doll is a bit rough, the brown hair is inserted one by one on the synthetic resin head, the face is a bit dull and stiff, not vivid and cute.

In an ancient stone castle where no one lives, a plastic doll appeared?

It does seem very abrupt.

Lu Sifan's first thought was that it might be a bug or a monitor. He pinched the body of the plastic doll with his fingers. The synthetic resin felt soft but not hard, and there was no bugging electronic device inside. He looked carefully at the plastic doll. The doll's big light blue eyes also don't use a pinhole camera inside.

There isn't even a battery in the battery slot on the back of the doll.

"Strange……"

Rusfan was puzzled.

He suddenly remembered the words of the ghost nun: There is still a soul here.

"Soul..." Lu Sifan looked at the plastic doll in his hand, murmured thoughtfully.

Seeing that he was about to be seen through, a ferocious smile suddenly appeared on the stiff face of the plastic doll. He took out a small hand from the overalls, took out a sharp knife, and stabbed it in Lu Sifan's chest. hand.

"Ah!"

Although the ghost doll is small in size, it is quite powerful. This knife pierced through Lu Sifan's tiger's mouth. He let go of the hand holding the plastic doll, covered his hand and screamed.

The plastic doll fell to the ground, moved quickly with its two short legs, and ran away with a giggle.

Lu Sifan bowed his body, looked at the blood pouring out of his hands, screamed angrily, and was about to catch up.
