The dormitory manager sneered, stared at Josh's figure, stood still, his hair suddenly grew wildly as if it had life, spread to the ground, and crawled towards Josh faster than the monster.
Josh dodged.
As soon as he landed on the ground, the dormitory manager's hair turned into a thick whip and lashed at him.
The floor beneath Qiao Xi's feet was blown away by the force, and she was also pushed out, sliding and falling at the feet of the statue.
She covered her injured arms and legs and climbed up from the ground, threw herself at the feet of the statue, and hugged the corner of the statue's clothes: "Your Holiness, I am your most loyal believer, please save me! As long as you can save me, I am willing to serve you for life and give you my body, mind, and even soul!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the statue burst into a dazzling white light, almost illuminating the entire academy.
The long-tongued monster and the dormitory manager were frightened by the divine light. They quickly knelt down and panickedly returned to their human form: "Your Holiness, please forgive me! Your Holiness, please forgive me!"
The statue transformed into a human form, and a tall and handsome man walked down from the altar. The man's lips were black, but this did not affect his handsomeness at all. His pair of golden eyes made Qiao Xi inexplicably think of Yu Ze.
The man had a divine aura about him, and his face looked dignified and holy.
His eyes were full of coldness and indifference, but when he looked at Josh, there was a slight ripple in his eyes.
He squatted down, and gently lifted Josh's chin with his slender white fingers, forcing him to look at him.
Qiao Xi inexplicably felt that she would not be able to lie if she looked into a pair of eyes like that.
I have an inexplicable feeling that lying will lead to eternal damnation.
It's not a feeling, it's a certainty.
Her intuition told her that if she lied to this man, she would be doomed.
The man smiled slightly, his dark lips curled up slightly: "Little believer, are you sure you want to dedicate your body, mind and soul to me?"
Josh instantly switched to devout believer mode. After a moment of shock, his eyes were filled with joy and worship. "Of course! Your Holiness! You actually appeared to me! It's like a dream! Are you here to save me? Did you hear the prayers of your most loyal believers?"
The Pope stroked her chin with a smile in his eyes: "Of course, but I have a question."
Josh listened carefully to what he said, as if she would regret it if she missed even a word.
The little believer's earnest and pious look pleased him.
but……
The Pope moved closer so that she could be bathed in the divine light. "You have just started school, right? In just two days, you have already become my most faithful believer?"
The pressure from God almost bent all the red and white roses in the flower bed to the ground.
Qiao Xi felt her back stiffen, and the cold feeling coming from above her head seemed to pierce through her head.
She was sure that if she didn't fool this god today, his hand would pierce her heart in the next second.
She looked up and met the Pope's golden eyes.
One could faintly see extremely tiny and complex spells flowing in those golden eyes.
She felt that she was not facing an ordinary monster in a copy, but a real ancient god passed down from ancient times.
She had experienced this feeling of oppression a long time ago when she was traveling with her senior sisters.
They are like towering mountains, quietly overlooking the tiny humans at their feet, without compassion or pity. Everything is just self-touching and over-interpretation of sentient beings.
God is not as loving and gentle as you think.
If there is any discomfort, they will easily overturn the entire earth.
Josh raised his head and looked directly into God's eyes: "From the first time I saw the statue of the Pope, I have been your most loyal believer. My loyalty does not need to be measured by time. Time may be extremely precious to people, but to you, it is just the cheapest thing, isn't it?"
[Ding! Gained 20 points of favorability with the Pope, current favorability -10.]
The Pope stared at her for a long moment, as if trying to discern the look in her eyes.
"Since you are so loyal to me, prove it to me."
Josh's mind was racing. She didn't think she was so unique that she could immediately attract the statue to appear for her.
But what was it about her that attracted this statue?
Could it be that she used her super powers to test God that day and he noticed something?
Josh raised his eyes. Even though he was frightened by the god's revealing his true identity, he still looked him in the eye bravely: "How can I prove it to you?"
The Pope helped her up and asked her to look at the NPC and the dormitory manager who were kneeling on the ground not far away: "If you help me kill them, I will believe in your loyalty."
"They?" Qiao Xi was slightly surprised.
The Pope smiled and lifted her chin slightly: "No, it's them."
Josh saw two people hiding not far from the NPC and the dormitory manager, Susanna and a girl.
The two men suddenly retracted their heads and hid behind the pillars.
The Pope raised his hand and pointed casually, and the two men flew up uncontrollably and landed in front of Josh. Their hands and feet were still tied up by the divine light and they couldn't move at all.
Susanna's face changed drastically: "Sister! You're not really going to kill me, are you?"
"Sister?" The Pope smiled slightly, "That would be even more interesting."
He gave his precious sword to Josh: "Go ahead."
Josh took the sword and looked at the Pope innocently: "Will this really prove my loyalty to you, and will you accept me?"
The Pope leaned over and kissed her forehead. His voice was low and pleasant, even a little bewitching: "Of course, my little believer."
Josh seemed to be greatly encouraged. She turned around and looked at Susanna, her expression becoming increasingly cold.
With a "swish", the sword in Josh's hand pierced into Susanna's chest.
Susanna's pupils suddenly contracted because of the pain, and she stared at Josh in disbelief: "Sister..."
Josh glanced at her coldly and pulled out the sword mercilessly. Blood gushed out from Susanna's chest and splashed on the left side of her face.
She was trembling all over, and she clenched the sword in her hands tightly. The sweet and hot blood flowed down, causing the hilt of the sword in her hand to slip slightly.
She wiped her hands expressionlessly, gripped the sword tightly, and swung the sword again, killing the girl next to her.
Under the cold white moonlight, the girl was wearing a scarlet school uniform and holding a long sword. Her face was delicate and ethereal, and her big eyes were blinking like an elf, but her face was covered in blood, like a pure white rose immersed in a pool of blood.
It seemed that killing her companion did not make her feel strange.
A man's chuckle came from behind.
"You will be the only believer recognized by God."
[Ding! Pope's favorability +20, current favorability 10%. Congratulations on successfully activating the hidden NPC and obtaining the hidden task, "Pass the Pope's Test"]
Josh lowered his eyes to hide the strange color in his eyes.
