Chapter 7 Training
In the dark night of the desert, the wind was cold and the dust was howling. In the oasis of the ancient desert city of Bastis, in a small woods, the corpse dolls Ed and Neveu controlled by Dorothy were in a secret place here. Dorothy relied on the materialized spiritual thread to carry out meticulous treatment for a member of the Savior's Advent Sect rescued by Neveu.
This afternoon, when Vanya was confronting the residents of Bastis and the Immortal Cult, she used her powerful life perception ability to detect that one of the members of the Savior Cult nailed to the city gate was not dead yet and had very weak signs of life. After Vanya came back from the confrontation with that group of people, she told Dorothy the news.
Wanting to learn more about what had happened in Bastis recently regarding the Savior Sect, the Immortal Cult, and the plague they had created, Dorothy chose to let Neveu rely on the Soul Whisker to rescue the dying Savior Sect member to see if she could get any useful information from her.
"How is her injury? Can it be cured?" Looking at Ed who was being cured in front of her, Nephness, who was standing beside her, couldn't help but ask curiously. Dorothy also let Ed answer in a deep voice.
"She has a lot of parasites in her body, and her body is being eaten quite badly. It's very troublesome to clean it up, but fortunately it's not difficult to solve." Dorothy controlled Ed to respond to Neveu. When Neveu heard that the woman she just carried had countless parasites that could eat flesh in her body, she immediately felt goose bumps and began to scratch herself with fear.
"Hmm... Parasites? I feel so disgusting... Are there any bugs crawling into my body?"
Neveu began to touch her body to check if she had any parasites, while Dorothy answered slowly through Ed.
"You don't have any in your body, but I'm not sure if it's on your clothes."
"On the clothes... Well, you take your time here, I'll go back to check and take a shower!" With that, Neveu left the scene in a flash. Dorothy ignored her and continued to treat the Savior woman in front of her.
When deworming the Savior woman, Dorothy discovered that the woman's body had lost a lot of nutrients, and there were signs of gnaws on her tissues and internal organs. The key point was that there were traces of some food in the woman's stomach, and judging from the digestion state, it had not been long since she had eaten. In other words, the woman was still being fed when she was nailed to the city gate. In Bastis, the only people who openly fed her were the Immortal Cultists.
Seeing the condition inside the woman's body, Dorothy more or less understood why the Immortal Cult members did not kill the Savior Cult members directly, but instead kept them hanging and torturing them.
'According to the habits of the Afterbirth Cult, most of the Extraordinary People captured by it will be used for blood-eating and become Extraordinary sashimi. The reason why these guys were able to survive and most of them had an intact body is mostly because the Immortality Cult has a more efficient method of absorbing spiritual energy, allowing parasites to absorb spiritual energy for them.
'These guys use the human body as a breeding ground to cultivate parasites. The parasites can rapidly reproduce by absorbing the host's vitality, and then they can seize the host's spirituality by recycling the parasites...
'Although the spiritual power gained by doing this in the short term may not be as good as that gained by the blood-eating method, in the long term the spiritual power gained may be more considerable than that gained by the blood-eating method, because the parasitized people will not die immediately. As long as some method can be used to keep them alive, they can continue to be a hotbed for cultivating parasites. For example, this extraordinary person of the Path of the Virgin Mary of the Savior Sect has a stronger vitality than ordinary extraordinary people. It is not difficult to think of some methods to keep her alive. As long as she lives one more day, she can cultivate more insects for the group of people in the Immortality Sect...'
While treating the woman in front of her, Dorothy analyzed that if her analysis was correct, and if she did not come to save her, she would probably continue to be tortured by the parasites for a long time until her body completely collapsed and could no longer serve as a breeding ground for the Changsheng Cult to provide spirituality.
'These cults collect spirituality... one is more ingenious than the other...' Dorothy commented in her heart, and then continued to focus on her healing work. With the nimble and swift movement of Dorothy's spiritual thread, the parasites and eggs in the woman's body were being quickly cleared out.
After completely clearing the parasites from the woman's body, Dorothy began to use wound transfer to treat the internal injuries that had recently been caused by the parasites. After the healing process lasted for a while, the woman began to respond. Her body began to tremble and shake slightly.
Dorothy understood that the patient was about to wake up, so Dorothy immediately asked Ed to step back and controlled another corpse puppet to move forward. This corpse puppet walked out of the bushes. This corpse puppet was wearing a priest robe and turban that had been modified to adapt to the desert. This was the standard uniform of the Savior priests. This corpse puppet was the other Savior member who was crucified. Dorothy crushed the corpse puppet.
"Cough... cough cough..." Finally, after several violent coughs, the woman lying on the ground slowly opened her eyes after a violent cough. She looked weakly in front of her, and then she saw the corpse-doll Savior believers controlled by Dorothy.
"Adil...it's you...are you still alive?"
"Don't move yet, you have just been cured, don't do any violent movements..." Dorothy let the corpse doll called Adil speak. Listening to Adil's words, the woman turned her head slightly again and looked at the surrounding environment.
"Where are we...? Where are those disgusting cultists?"
"We have been rescued. The Holy Church sent someone to save us. Now we have finally escaped from their clutches..." Adler said as he looked in another direction. The woman also looked weakly in the direction Adil was looking in. Then she saw the masked Ed, wearing a robe and a headscarf, smiling at her.
"Well, let's have a good talk now."
The moment Ed spoke, the woman felt a sense of security and trust.
