Chapter 188: Not Worthy to Worship
Holding the gra.s.shopper in his hand, Ling Pingan turned around and said to the police officer, “Please!”
But..
The police officer looked at the gra.s.shopper in Ling Pingan’s hand in surprise.
He even looked scared.
“Is the police officer afraid of bugs?” Ling Pingan asked.
“A little…” The officer swallowed his saliva and looked at the thing in the bookstore owner’s hand.
It was a ferocious and terrifying bug.
Countless compound eyes appeared on its body, making it look very scary.
The officer suspected that he might have a nightmare tonight!
“Don’t be afraid!” Ling pingan smiled. He knew that many people in the city were afraid of even caterpillars, let alone gra.s.shoppers!
However, how could a police officer be afraid of gra.s.shoppers?
Ling Pingan couldn’t help but laugh in his heart.
He pinched the fat gra.s.shopper and waved it in his hand. He told the police officer seriously, “This is a very delicious thing!”
“Especially when it’s fried, it’s very tasty!”
At this point, Ling Pingan couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
He really missed the days when he caught gra.s.shoppers in the gra.s.s of the industrial park when he was young.
Unfortunately..
Nowadays, it was rare to see such wild little things.
So much so that if one wanted to eat gra.s.shoppers, they had to pay for them.
The price was also very expensive, almost as expensive as beef!
But..
Hearing his words, the police officer and the officials beside him seemed to be frightened.
Ling Pingan could clearly feel their breathing.
He could even guess what these people were thinking?
“He can eat bugs? !”
Or: “This person is too scary! He actually eats bugs!”
But..
The corners of Ling Pingan’s mouth curled up slightly. How would these middle-cla.s.s people who grew up in honey pots know that gra.s.shoppers were delicious and rich in protein?
This was a great tonic!
However, he did not force others to change their opinions.
Therefore, he smiled, grabbed the plump gra.s.shopper, and walked to the bookstore. “Gentlemen, please come in!” He opened the door and invited with a smile.
The police officer swallowed his saliva.
He looked at the officials of the Federal Relief Committee.
He found that these people also swallowed like him.
Then, they all knew why this mission was a top secret mission.
They looked at the horrible monster that was held in the hands of the bookstore owner and couldn’t even move.
Finally, they gathered their courage and walked over carefully.
When they pa.s.sed by the bookstore owner, everyone was on edge.
Fortunately, the monster had been completely subdued by the bookstore owner.
It was tightly held.
It didn’t have the strength to move at all!
Only then did everyone heave a sigh of relief. Then, they realized that their backs were already drenched.
Although they weren’t transcendent beings, they had all come into contact with transcendent events.
Naturally, they knew that the monster that was held in the bookstore owner’s hands was probably of a high level!
However, such a terrifying monster was held in the bookstore owner’s hands. It didn’t even have the strength to move or resist.
No wonder this mission was top secret!
Thinking of this, everyone quickly straightened their att.i.tude.
They knew the rules and regulations.
They understood that even if there was just a small mistake in this mission, they and their families would probably have to go to Beihai to plant corn!
… ..
Mr. A raised his head and watched the mysterious Easterner bring another group of people into the bookstore.
They were all ordinary people.
In the next moment, Mr. A saw the mysterious easterner. He gently stuffed a terrifying monster with countless compound eyes, which had the aura of h.e.l.l, into a transparent plastic cup.
Then, he flipped the cup upside down on the counter.
Mr. A could clearly see the monster’s full appearance.
Under the appearance of the Locust, countless eyeb.a.l.l.s were crowded together.
This was a devil Duke of h.e.l.l!
And it was the Lord of the fourth level of h.e.l.l — the 10,000-eyed Devil Evie from Rose’s myths!
But now, this terrifying Devil Duke of h.e.l.l was like a prey that has been caught, lying in the cup with its last breath.
Mr. A looked at it and could clearly feel that the Devil Duke’s soul was trembling in fear.
Mr. A swallowed his saliva and looked at the witches beside him.
At this moment, all of them broke out in cold sweat.
They looked at the captured Duke.
They thought of themselves.
“If we had foolishly tried to attack the person that this great father wanted to serve…”
They knew that their fate would not be better than that of the Duke.
It was very likely that they would be captured like the Duke of demons and stuffed into a bottle or box.
Meow!
The Cat G.o.ddess jumped off the table gracefully and quickly climbed into the counter.
She stared at the Duke of demons who was upside down in a plastic cup.
She let out a low roar and angry roar!
“Little Boy!” The owner of the bookstore reached out his hand gently and stroked his pet. He smiled and said, “Tonight, brother caught a bug!”
“I’ll roast it later. I’ll give you more food!”
“I’ll roast it later…”
“I’ll give you more food…”
These words echoed in his ears. Mr. A swallowed his saliva, and the witches at the feast swallowed as well.
A Duke of demons..
Was just a bug.
A bug that he was going to feed to his pet.
… … … ..
Alucard sat beside the pond.
He looked at the pond water in front of him and gradually calmed down.
The aura belonging to Evie was rapidly fading away.
“What happened?” Alucard raised his head.
He recalled what he had just seen.
In an instant, the pond suddenly churned and boiled.
He saw Duke Evie’s origin being violently dragged out of the pond by some strength.
It was being dragged in a certain direction at an extremely fast speed.
“Ah!” Alucard howled miserably.
He let out a shrill cry and wanted to ask for help!
But, it was too fast!
Everything was too fast. It was so fast that Alucard couldn’t react at all. Duke Evie’s origin was dragged to a certain place by that strength.
“What is it?” Alucard was shocked and scared.
Every Devil Duke in h.e.l.l was an existence that had left a mark in the origin of h.e.l.l.
In theory, as long as the origin wasn’t destroyed.
No matter how many times they were destroyed, they could still be reborn from h.e.l.l at a certain time!
But now, the mark and strength left by the origin of Evie in h.e.l.l was directly extracted by some kind of strength in a brutal way.
This meant that if the Devil Duke fell in reality.
He would fall forever!
h.e.l.l would no longer have his place.
And he could not be resurrected again!
But the problem was..
Who could do this?
The commander-in-chief of the Blackguard?
Impossible!
What he could not do, he was only a human.
Moreover, Alucard knew that even if he surpa.s.sed the current vigilance and broke the imprison of his own body, turning from a human into a G.o.d or an immortal.
He wouldn’t be able to do that.
“Could it be that some awakened ancient G.o.d from the east has made a move?” Alucard thought in terror.
Heavenly Emperor, East Emperor Taiyi, and the Three Qing Dao Fathers?
He didn’t know.
It was precisely because he didn’t know that he was afraid!
… ..
Situ He stared at the surveillance screen in a daze.
Everything that had just happened still lingered in front of his eyes.
That bookstore owner..
Caught a Devil Duke of h.e.l.l with a casual grab.
And..
From the slow-down of the screen, it was obvious that he had used some kind of indescribable ability the moment he caught the Devil Avatar.
He pulled gently.
The main body and origin of the devil were all sucked into that body.
The Duke of the Devil in h.e.l.l was as weak and insignificant as an insect in front of him.
“What a terrible trick!” Li Shouyi also took a deep breath.
He knew clearly that the bookstore owner did it on purpose.
He deliberately exposed himself to the camera and deliberately revealed this trick.
This was both a kind of guarantee and a kind of deterrence.
He conveyed an indisputable message — as long as I want to, nothing is impossible!
“Let’s get ready…” Li Shouyi turned his head and said to Situ He, “Tonight, we’ll work overtime together. When the people come back, we’ll finish reading the files and records, and then we’ll reconsider everything that happened tonight!”
Li Shouyi understood that from the moment the owner of the bookstore appeared in his line of sight.
The direction and fate of this world were actually completely dependent on his thoughts.
Treat him and every move he makes, every message, every word he says.
Both require careful scrutiny and judgment.
Because, one should never misjudge his meaning!
One miscalculation, and it could be devastating!
Of course..
Like the courtiers who served the emperor in the past.
Accompanying a monarch is like accompanying a tiger at the same time, as long as you can accurately fathom the Emperor’s mind, and quietly to help him to handle things well.
Then, the rewards would naturally come in an endless stream.
Look!
This was the proof!
Because he had done a good job of figuring out the emperor’s intentions, he generously gave out the rewards!
The leader of the Brotherhood’s beast sect and the thirteen witches of the feast offered them with both hands!
Thinking of this, Li Shouyi suddenly mocked himself, “Why do I feel Like I’m the former Chief of the Board of Regents…”
… … ..
Ling Pingan carried the kitten and turned around to look at the crowd that had already filled the bookstore.
He walked up to the poor man wearing the mask.
Ling Pingan squatted down and looked at his mask.
He thought for a moment and said, “I know that you’ve all suffered a lot and taken many detours!”
“But from today onwards, all of you can be reborn!”
When the other party heard this, he suddenly raised his head.
Tears faintly flashed in his eyes under the mask.
At this moment, Mr. A only felt that the light of G.o.d was bathing him, this pitiful and sorrowful lost lamb.
The will of the Black Pharaoh was already unquestionable — to obey the great ruler!
Ling Pingan looked at the women in black again and said softly, “I roughly understand that your past…”
The moment he squatted down, he caught a glimpse of the poor people’s legs from the corner of his eyes.
They were mostly dark-colored with bruises.
Some people’s calves were even covered in bruises.
This made him even more certain of his guess — they were indeed members of a circus or an acrobatic troupe.
A group of disabled people, a group of disabled people who were determined to fight with their own hands.
For the sake of living, they traveled all over the Federal Empire.
They might even have crossed oceans and gone to Northern Zhou, Southern Zhou, and Western Song to perform.
Although they didn’t know their ages.
Ling Pingan guessed that they should be in their thirties or forties.
This was because it was basically impossible for young people nowadays to be in the circus or acrobatic troupe.
Hearing his words, the dozen or so women in black suddenly began to sob.
The witches of the feast saw the figure of the Black G.o.d of the Feast that they served.
Whispers were echoing in their ears.
“In the past, you were as lowly as ants…”
“In the present, you have sinned deeply…”
“In the future, you have a bright future!”
“Obey the ruler…”
“Regain your glory and favor!”
Thus, the witches became excited.
Tears streamed down from their eyes.
G.o.d… did not abandon them.
G.o.d did not despise them!
The Great G.o.d even gave them a chance to regain their favor!
How glorious!
How honored!
The mentality of being saved and redeemed occupied all of them.
Thus, the witches of the feast obeyed their hearts.
They all knelt down.
And this time, their actions were approved!
Thus, they were even more convinced that this was the will of G.o.d that they believed in!
With a crash, more than ten people knelt down together.
Ling Pingan watched and hurriedly helped them up one by one. “No, no…”
However, his words had changed in the ears of the witches of the feast
“The Great G.o.d is unwilling to accept our worship…”
“That’s right…”
“We are such lowly and insignificant people…”
“How can we have the right to worship him? !”
“Moreover, we were ignorant and foolish to attempt to offend him…”
“Such a sin… how heavy is it?”
“How can we still have the right to worship him…”
“For the rest of our lives, apart from repentance and regret…”
“What else can we expect? !”
The witches of the feast did not persist.
They gave up.
But this also strengthened their faith!
They must obey G.o.d! Obey G.o.d’s orders!
Atonement, repentance, confession!
G.o.d had already shown the direction and the way.
Such lowly and insignificant sinners were not qualified to serve and fight for G.o.d now.
They were only qualified to serve as G.o.d’s servants!
They were only qualified to be the slaves of G.o.d’s servants!
Perhaps after countless years of atonement and repentance,.
G.o.d would pity them and allow them to pray to them again.
But now..
They were sinners!
Sinners should atone for their sins and repent!
… … ..
A few minutes later, Ling Pingan stood at the door with the kitten Bastet in his arms and watched as they were taken to the van one by one.
They sat down with tears in their eyes.
They were tears of excitement and grat.i.tude.
The young bookstore owner waved at them. “Come on, everyone! I’ll come visit you when I have time!”
The van slowly started and disappeared into the night.
Ling Pingan carried the kitten Bastet and walked back to the store.
Then, he looked at the gra.s.shopper that was upside down in the plastic cup.
Meow!
The kitten couldn’t wait to eat it!
