Chapter 10 The Horrifying Shadow on the Church Mural
"I don't remember! I don't remember! Where is this?" John kept shouting.

Raven slapped his forehead. It was over. He really had lost his memory.

When the car overturned, he hit his head on the shaft in order to protect himself. That should have been the cause.

Ugh!
Raven sighed, pointed at the table and said softly:
"Here's some food. Eat something first. I'm going to go out."

As the door closed, John hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but went up and started eating.

He is too hungry.

Raven stayed outside for a long time, and when he returned to the house, John had already eaten and drunk his fill and fell asleep.

"What a good attitude." He laughed at himself, then tidied up and went to sleep.

This is a vast and boundless world.

The purple sun shines on the earth, the towering peaks rise and fall, and the wide rivers flow.

The whole world is filled with thick, uncivilized fuel.

Because it is so dense, flashes of lightning and whirlpools appear from time to time.

Countless towering cities stand on the earth.

Every city has a towering power tower, with powerful electric sparks shooting out from the top of the tower, which is quite spectacular.

"Where is this?"

Raven looked at everything in front of him in amazement.

This place is completely different from my hometown, but it gives me a familiar feeling.

Real and weird.

Rumble!
A low roar sounded from the sky.

He looked up and his eyes suddenly widened. It turned out to be a floating city!

The city is so big that it almost blocks out the sun.

The towering golden city walls stretch as far as the eye can see, with countless colorful ribbons hanging from the walls, casting rays of blazing light along the way.

There are many strong men standing on the top of the city.

They were so powerful that it was terrifying, and judging from their aura, each of them was far superior to President Christine.

Looking at these strong men, Riven's eyes showed a trace of confusion.

These people seemed familiar to him, but he couldn't remember where they were.

Especially the majestic man surrounded by powerful people in the center.

He was wearing a purple armor covered with mysterious wheel patterns, emitting circles of fluctuations, and his eyes were flashing with lightning.

Raven stared at the man blankly, and suddenly two lines of hot tears flowed out, muttering:
"Father, is that you?"

"Damn! Why am I crying?" Raven felt very strange. "This is weird."

The man didn't see him, but flew past him.

Even the strong men around him didn't notice him.

It seemed as if he was transparent.

"Father! I am Wittgenstein, father!"

Raven found her mouth shouting uncontrollably.

However, the middle-aged man still went away.

Raven's scalp suddenly went numb.

Wittgenstein?

Who the hell is this and why is he in my body?
No, it seems like he is controlling the body.

Could it be... that I am in his body?

Sure enough, the next moment the body flew up and chased after the city.

Just as he was about to enter the city, a magnificent forbidden area lit up, and endless flames engulfed him.

Raven felt a sharp pain, and all he could see was fire and lightning, and then he lost consciousness.

Ah!
Raven suddenly woke up from her dream.

He touched his face and found that he was in tears.

"Damn it, it's just a dream, why am I so devoted to it?" he muttered.

But the dream just now was too real, as if it was his memory, especially the heart-wrenching feeling.

"Forget it, it's just a weird dream."

Raven shook her head and looked out the window.

It was already daybreak, but John was still asleep.

He got up carefully, made some breakfast, and left the room.

Today he is going to the church to ask the pastor to treat Caroline.

After asking along the way, he crossed half of the city and came to a church.

This is St. Peter's Basilica, the cathedral of the Temple of Wisdom in Lennon.

St. Peter's Basilica is built on the banks of the Midsummer River. It is magnificent and many people come here every day to pray and seek healing.

Raven followed the crowd into the church. There was a long line in front of them, all the way to the door.

Despite the large number of people, the team was well-ordered. At most, a few people were whispering to each other, but they stopped quickly.

Raven looked around and saw many lives of unknown races painted on the tall walls.

The shorter ones among them are about the same size as humans, while the taller ones are as tall as mountains. Some have flames burning on their bodies, some are wrapped in chains, and some are standing on giant monsters. In short, they have different appearances.

But they have one thing in common: they are all crawling in the same direction.

There is the dome.

There are three huge shadows on the huge dome.

The shadow makes it impossible to see the face and the outline of the body is also blurred, but it exudes eternal majesty.

Raven looked for a while, and one of the shadows suddenly became solid, revealing its face and looking at him quietly.

It was a huge, inhuman face, simple, majestic, and exuding a primitive aura. Just looking at it made one want to prostrate oneself in worship.

Especially those eyes, made up of thousands of tiny compound eyes, looking at him quietly, as if examining him.

Raven's whole body instantly went cold, and his soul froze.

At this moment, he felt that he was completely seen through, and even his life and death were controlled by the other party.

In his sea of ​​consciousness, the silent Star Punishment suddenly trembled violently, bursting with dazzling light, as if cheering. Of course, Riven didn't know.

He just felt his head was swollen and numb, as if something was kicking inside, or like a wooden stick was hitting him.

The face on the mural seemed to feel the star's punishment, and the corners of its mouth suddenly curved up.

"Damn! What is this?" Raven was shocked.

"Boy, what did you see that made you so absent-minded?"

At this moment, a voice rang in his ear.

The huge face of the dome suddenly disappeared and turned into shadow again.

Raven was sweating and breathing rapidly.

"You... you really saw it?"

The person who had spoken looked at him in shock.

Raven looked.

This was a young man of similar age, dressed like a diviner.

"I……"

Raven opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't make a sound at all, as if some force was stopping him.

"I was silenced?" he was surprised.

When he was in church school, he heard his teacher talk about the art of silence.

This is a mysterious burning technique that allows the silenced person to keep a secret forever.

If he forced himself to tell it, he would be seriously injured at best, or die immediately at worst.

Raven was surprised. When did he get infected?

Could it be that shadow?
This is the only possibility.

Why did he do this? Doesn't he want me to tell others?

Raven thought quickly.

"Why don't you speak?" the boy asked.

"Nothing, I just thought the roof was so high, can you see things?"

The boy shook his head and sighed:

“I could only see three shadows.

The archbishop said that this is a mural left over from ancient times, depicting the three supreme creatures: Wisdom, Fate, and the Void."

He suddenly lowered his voice:
"I heard that if a person is blessed by fate, he or she can see things that we cannot see."

"what?"

"Usually it's some kind of oracles, or it could be a Titan, or if fate is against the will of heaven, then it could also be the original god.

Well, according to legend, some people have seen creation, but I think that is just wishful thinking. "

Raven nodded, thinking about it.

If this is true, what did I just see?

Genshin Impact? Titan?
Are you kidding? How could such a being pay attention to an ant like him?

Is it a revelation?
What does it tell us?

It's ridiculous. He is not a believer and is just a small fry. Who would give him instructions?

After thinking about it, he felt that it was probably just his eyes playing tricks on him.

"Brother, why are you sweating so much?" the boy asked puzzledly.

"I am weak."

"Have you touched too many women?"

The boy smiled with an "I understand" look on his face.

"It's okay, I have a way to make up for it."

"unnecessary."

"Alas... Men, you know it all, don't pretend."

As he said this he pulled out a bottle of small blue pills.

“This thing is called Juge, have you heard of it?
It is a good tonic and can also cure chronic cold legs. The Prime Minister’s legs were cured with it.”

"The third tui?"

The young man was immediately confused: "Brother, we are all from the same path! I am so sorry for my disrespect!"

"So-so!"

"Since we hit it off right away, I'll give it to you for free."

The boy handed the small blue pill to Raven and said slyly:
"Leave me your address. I'll call you if there's anything good in the future."

"I say, you are a bishop, isn't this against doctrine?"

"I'm just a hired apprentice, not a bishop." The young man waved his hand.

"Where is the priest?" Raven didn't want to get entangled with him.

The boy said in an ambiguous tone: "You don't need a priest to cure your disease. I can do it."

"Fuck, what are you thinking about.

I asked a pastor to treat my mother, who was in a coma. "

“Ah, then you should go to Reverend Charles.

He is soft-hearted. If it were someone else, your mother would have to come."

"Thanks."

This stuff is kind of useful.

Raven patted the boy on the shoulder:

"Brother, you are very angry with me, so I will give you a saying from my hometown."

"what?"

"The strong oars were reduced to ashes."
