Chapter 23 Church



Levi began to help Fengzi clean the hair dye off her head while speaking lightly.

Fengzi was lying on the chair with her hair soaked in the basin of water. Her blue eyes were staring straight at Levi who was washing her hair intently, without blinking.

"Do you know how long it took me to truly understand the rules of gravity after I was given the key?"

Levi held the spray head and shrugged.

"Two classes in one?"

"I started to learn about natural sciences when I was 6 years old, determined my research direction in physics when I was 8, was officially assigned to the Gravitational Division when I was 12, was given the key when I was 15, and was only truly qualified to intervene in the rules of gravity three months after my 17th birthday!"

She looked very excited and aggrieved, as if she had suffered a great blow in some aspect when she had always been proud of herself.

"If you count from when I was 6 years old, it took me 11 years to get to where you are now!"

Levi smacked his lips.

"Then your talent is average."

"I'm a genius! They all say so! They've been calling me that since I was little! The problem is you!"

Fengzi was very angry and anxious, but she managed her emotions very well, and soon her reason made her think more.

"Yes! The problem is you 626!"

She suddenly looked into Levi's eyes seriously.

"No normal person would ever interfere with the rules of natural science so quickly. This doesn't conform to the system! Even biological humans are the same. There must be something wrong with Tianen Company controlling you and using a fake society to imprison you for so long!"

"I investigated your information before I was put under house arrest, but even with my authority at the time, I couldn't find out who was in charge of organizing this experiment. The current head of the Sun Branch is just an executor!"

Levi disagreed with this.

He is very clear about his identity. Since the game company has designed such an identity for the player, it is not surprising that he has any messy background.

"Maybe I wasn't man-made, but I popped out of a stone."

He said casually, picking up a towel, holding the back of Fengzi's head, letting her sit up, and helping her dry her wet hair.

Fengzi didn't listen to his nonsense, but thought of another thing.

She was very serious and solemn. She turned her head and looked at Levi earnestly and gave him instructions.

"Promise me, 626, that you will never let others know that you are a biological person and that you have mastered the power of natural science!"

"Being injected with the key is one thing, but actually using the key to become one of the rules is another! This is an absolute taboo in the scientific community!"

Levi snapped her head back together.

"I know, but now you have to go and blow dry your hair yourself with a hairdryer."

"I still have more things to do. My hairstyle and hair color need to be changed, our faces need to be changed, and your legs. These features are too obvious. I'm thinking that if it doesn't work out, I'll sign up alone."

Fengzi pursed her lips and suddenly fell silent. She just quietly picked up the hair dryer, sat on the swivel chair, and blew her hair in front of the mirror.

Levi was in the back room of the barber shop looking for some goodies hidden by the owner. Before coming, he had inquired about the fact that this shop also took on some shady business of changing its appearance privately, and he did not notice any changes in Fengzi's mood.

"I'll sign up with you, and we'll enter the white tower together." she said suddenly.

Levi, who was looking at a pile of human skin masks, various prostheses and a variety of makeup props from an inconspicuous box in the corner, smiled as expected.

"What about your legs?" He came out holding a box of harvest.

"Don't worry, I have a way to not become a burden to us." Fengzi reached out and touched the lining of her underwear, and said in a low voice.

The next day at noon.

No. 18, Labour Block 2.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Levi looked up at the dilapidated church. There was no trace of the solemnity and sacredness of faith from its appearance.

This is a rare brick house among the surrounding wooden sheds, but it is only two stories high and the paint on the exterior has long been cracked and peeled off. If it weren't for the huge star-shaped cross on the roof, Levi would even doubt whether he had found the wrong place at the first moment.

Today is a day off for some workers and also a rare holiday in a month, which makes the daytime in the community not as lonely and quiet as usual.

In addition, Block 2 is one of the labor blocks closest to the Yaoguang District. There are some commercial systems here, and the workers living here are slightly healthier than those living in the periphery in terms of their clothing and appearance.

People come and go outside the Twilight Church. In addition to their religious attributes, every pastor of the Twilight Church is also a free doctor. The bishop of the Sun Diocese is famous for his consideration for workers and is a pro-lower-class person who strives to fight for more legal interests for workers.

Judging from the information Levi had obtained, this bishop was not a hypocrite who was just pretending to be one.

He was indeed an ascetic monk. Not only among the laborers in Yuguang District, but also among the wealthy people in Yaoguang District, the bishop had a great reputation. He was even once recommended to join the upper seats of the parliament.

But he insisted on keeping the main body of the church in the Yiguang area and lived an extremely simple life.

Some big factory owners and congressmen who believed in Twilight could not stand the dilapidated church and donated money together to ask the bishop to rebuild a luxurious new church. However, the current bishop took it upon himself to use the money to help orphans among the workers and repaired a cemetery to provide a place for the elderly who had no money to bury themselves after death.

This left the big factory owners and council members helpless, but they were unwilling to lower their status to pray in the dilapidated church in Yuguang District, so they raised funds again and built a bright and beautiful new church in Yaoguang District.

The bishop gave face to those people and assigned some priests to live in the church, but he himself remained in the dilapidated church in Yuguang District, treating the poor, adopting orphans, and taking care of the funeral affairs of the elderly. He enjoyed a high reputation among the workers.

Therefore, every year before the Festival of Glory, when he organized a choir, the workers would actively send their children in the hope of being selected. Even if there were no benefits, they would regard it as a support and reward for the bishop and the Twilight Church.

Levi and Fengzi looked at the long registration line. They looked at each other and understood in their hearts that just taking the first step of being selected was not an easy thing.
