Alien Relic Hunter
Chapter 359 Priest
"When you come here, you must first learn our rules." He said word by word.
"If anyone violates the rules set by the great god." He widened his eyes, and his cold gaze swept over each miner, "He will personally punish you."
To impose criminal laws personally? Another question popped up in Ke Lan's head. As far as he knew, the "heretical sect" on the ground, the great god they worshiped, was an invisible and intangible existence. Except when using the "Holy Word", More often than not, the great god is just a symbolic symbol.
But in the mouth of this "priest", this great god seems to be a real creature.
Could this just be a metaphor? Ke Lan couldn't help but think of a cold joke he had seen before. A certain sinner was about to be sent to the execution ground. He claimed that he was a devout believer, and only God was qualified to judge him, but the person responsible for the execution only treated him He said: Okay, now you can think about how you will defend your crimes in front of God after you meet him.
What is similar to this cold joke is a more famous movie line: "It is God's business to forgive them, and my task is to send them to see God."
The priest said that the great god would personally punish the offenders...probably to kill the people directly, right?
However, the priest's next sentence instantly made Ke Lan realize that things seemed not that simple.
The priest turned around and said to those who had just killed the seriously ill patients: "Bring their flesh and blood to the great god and let them become the nourishment of the great god... This is the end of their old life, and it will also be The starting point of their new life.”
"Bring it to the great god?!"
Could it be that the great god they believe in is on this space station? !
Ke Lan felt that his heartbeat seemed to be a little accelerated. He clenched his fists hard and glanced at Layton and Ivan who were far away from the people. The equipment they carried had eavesdropping devices, so they could naturally hear this. What a "priest" said.
Both of them seemed a little nervous. Layton even took out the Gauss assault rifle from his backpack and held it in his hand, ready for battle at any time.
His actions naturally attracted the attention of the locals. The priest looked at Layton and the two with extremely disgusted eyes and muttered something in a low voice.
"He said, 'Those are not our compatriots.'" Akira Asano said in Ke Lan's ear.
Ke Lan was not surprised by this. In the records of the previous batch of explorers, it was mentioned that the residents of the sick village were extremely xenophobic. If they entered the space station as an investigator, they would not be able to interact with the locals at all. Communicate.
"They... they have guns, do we want to take action?" Another tall man wearing a cloak and holding a steel pipe asked the "priest". Ke Lan noticed that although this man was nearly two Meters tall, but not strong, with not much muscle at all on his body. The reason why he looks very burly is entirely due to his highly deformed frame - if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, Ke Lan also had a hard time imagining how such a skeleton could perform actions similar to those of humans. In comparison, primate skeletons were far closer to humans than this guy.
"Don't provoke them yet," the priest said. "Let them do whatever they want, but they must not be allowed close to the residence of the great god."
"Yes." The deformed giant replied with great respect.
The abode of the great gods...
So, does this thing really live on the space station?
No wonder there are differences between this group of people and the heretical sects on the ground. Although the gods they believe in are both called "great gods", they are actually not the same thing at all.
Could it be that the "great god" these people believe in is a powerful monster?
But the problem is that this space station is isolated from the world, and the indigenous creatures on Alpha Planet cannot enter it at all, even if there are monsters...
That's only one possibility.
It was transformed by humans.
"You." The priest looked at Ke Lan and others, "Follow me."
…
Under his leadership, a dozen people, including Ke Lan, Asano Akira and the two "missionaries", walked towards the exit of the unloading area.
The deformed giant took out several bundles of cables twisted with copper core wires, tied the two corpses together, and carried them on his back. Several other people also carried the remaining corpses without saying a word. , followed him towards another exit.
Layton and Ivan immediately followed. They did not choose to follow those carrying the corpses, but followed Ke Lan and the others. In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, they deliberately kept more than fifty meters away from the miners' team. distance.
The crane on the top of the unloading area made a loud "crunching" sound, and the huge metal hook lowered, lifting the boxes containing supplies into the air, but Ke Lan had not yet seen what was being sent to these boxes. There, the priest had already led them through a low metal door and entered a narrow and dark space.
Ke Lan recalled the structural diagram of the space station in his mind. If the structure of the space station had not been changed since then, then this should be the only two places where people live.
Area B.
[P.S. Regarding the names of religious personnel, I only found out after checking the information that priests are called Catholics and Orthodox Christians, and Protestants, which are usually called Christian clergy in China, are called pastors... And the most interesting thing is, Protestantism does not recognize the status of the pope (that is, the pope). It suddenly occurred to me that there were many novels in the past where priests and popes often coexisted in the same religion. Now that I think about it, it always feels weird...
However, since it is a parallel world, the settings should be according to the author's instructions. Therefore, I hope you will not bully me in terms of some settings. I will try my best to make the world settings more perfect and have fewer bugs. As for some things that readers may not understand, there are generally two situations: First, this may be a foreshadowing. Second, if you cannot understand something involving memes, nouns, concepts, etc., please use Baidu.
So far, I admit that the biggest bug in this book is that the description of the power of anti-matter weapons does not conform to reality. In other places, I feel that there should be no problems.
If you, the reader, have a different understanding, please join the group 667413621 to discuss it with me. However, if you make a point in a book review or this chapter, or start a direct rant, I may choose to delete the post and ban you.
Of course, if there are grammatical errors or typos or omissions, you can mention them directly in the description of the chapter. As long as the chapter is still within the revision period, I will revise it immediately when I see it, and I will be very grateful to the brothers who help catch the bugs ( VIP chapters can be modified within seven days after they are published. If they are released for more than seven days, they will be locked and the author will not have modification permission). 】
[P.P.S Thanks to Mu Xinmo for the 1398 starting coins. 】
