Witch, Fireball and Steam Evil God

Chapter 117 The Evil God's Chosen One
It’s itchy, it’s so itchy!

Aesok couldn't help scratching his cheek, but he tore off a piece of flesh instead. He stared blankly at his palm soaked in blood, but he didn't feel any pain. The unbearable itching on his face disappeared, replaced by a kind of comfort that is difficult to describe in words.

However, he was terrified in his heart. This extreme feeling of separation made Aesok feel as if his thoughts were divided into two. The other part came from the whisper deep in his mind, constantly telling him of the greatness of God, and asked him to embrace this gift from God.

Become a child of the Heavenly Father and you will gain more!
Must escape!
Another consciousness pulled Esoke back to reality, but before that... he looked fiercely at the thug in the corner.

The thugs laughed at the look on Asoke's face, a gloating smile, their eyes widened, as if they wanted to witness with their own eyes the moment Asoke fell into hell.

Aesok was furious and wanted to point the gun at the other party, but he found that the gun had fallen to the ground at some point. This subconscious action also allowed him to see his arms. His five fingers were nowhere to be found, and instead there were tentacles covered with barbs, with cracks torn on them, and new granulations were growing from these cracks.

He was so frightened by this scene that he screamed, and without even looking back, he slammed the door open and ran back the way he came.

Aesok's scream triggered a chain reaction. All the investigators he met along the way avoided him as if he had seen a ghost. Some were so frightened that they fell to the ground.

You guys...what are you doing?
A bunch of thugs!
I will kill you sooner or later!
Isoko did not stop, before he liquidated these people, he had to find a cure for the Red Death!

Yes, that's right, he was going to find the new investigator and order him to heal himself.

If it doesn't work, kill him and that weird cat!
Kill them all!
He ran all the way to the downstairs of the shelter. He met fewer and fewer people along the way. The noisy screams finally stopped, but the first floor of the hall was empty. This sudden silence intensified Aesok's fear. He just stood at the door of the branch and was greeted by countless gazes.

There were not only the musketeers he brought there, but also investigators from the Internment Bureau, the Kingdom Army, and even priests from the Vatican. Everyone had the same look in their eyes, even the musketeers were no exception. Out of conditioned reflex, all the barrels of their crossbows were pointed at him at this moment.

Troublemakers, a bunch of troublemakers! I am Aesok!

He roared and took a step forward. Gunshots rang out almost at the same time. Aesok saw the gun barrels spewing flames, and he also saw the priests begin to pray, gathering together silver-white energy.

The bullets hitting him felt light and had no real feel.

Finally, Aesok found the investigator with the cat sitting on his shoulder in the crowd. He saw the expression of the white cat. It was smiling with narrowed eyes and tilting its head mockingly to appreciate everything that was happening at the moment. Logically, he should not have understood the expression of a cat!
Then, his gaze shifted to the face of the cat-raising investigator.

Heal me!
He ran towards the other party desperately, but the investigator's lips moved and silently said to him, "It's hopeless, it can't be cured, goodbye, Esoke."

More gunshots rang out, and the silver-white light gathered by the priests hit Esoke.

He still felt no pain, but his movements slowed down.

You guys are a bunch of idiots, haven't you figured it out yet?
The new investigator is the follower of the evil god!
Asoke screamed, but people only heard unintelligible whispers, which reached everyone's ears clearly.

His forward steps finally stopped and he fell to the ground.

Aesoke saw that everyone's face showed genuine joy, that was the joy of surviving the disaster.

Before his vision fell into endless darkness, Aesok saw the officers of the Kingdom Army and the chief priest of the Church in Gear City solemnly express their gratitude to the new investigator - thanks to the young investigator's reminder, they were able to kill the evil god's creation before it hurt anyone.

Aesok seemed to see a woman wearing a black mage robe and heavy makeup at the end of the crowd. He felt his consciousness gradually dissipating, and before the last ray of light disappeared, he looked at the woman.

help me……

However, this time, the woman did not lend him a helping hand as usual. Instead, she raised her lips and gave him a malicious laugh. The last ray of light was extinguished.

The square-faced Steve-like branch chief, the Gravedigger, stood in the crowd, observing Ethan talking with the officers and the chief priest. This was supposed to be his duty, but at least on the issue of the Red Death, the ability shown by this newcomer was much more professional than that of his A-level investigator.

It really makes me feel ashamed.

The gravedigger was very pleased. Since the end of the Fallen War, everyone knew that the empire was getting worse and worse, but fortunately, when danger came, there were always people like Ethan who stood up.

I really want to keep a young man like this in Gear City and train him well!
It's a pity that it can't be cultivated.

On the night Ethan arrived in Gear City, the eldest daughter of the Margaret family sent him a letter, praising Ethan's work ability highly, while also tactfully telling him not to have any ideas about Ethan.

Ethan was destined to return to Riverwood Town. To him, the trip to Gear City was just an outing.

The gravedigger saw through Ivy's little thoughts. How could this be to train new people for the shelter? It was clearly just using the shelter as a platform to train her own assistant. When she returned to the imperial capital one day in the future, she would definitely take Ethan with her.

He could only envy Ivy for her keen eye for talent, being able to recruit such a newcomer from a small border town.

The conversation between Ethan and others was coming to an end. He made full use of his knowledge of the T virus and, based on it, he created a system of infection for the Red Death. He took Isoku as an example and described him as a second-stage infected person, who was more contagious than the first-stage infected people. Once a wound was torn by it, the person would almost certainly be infected with the Red Death.

But at the same time, the second-stage infected are the key to their conquest of the Red Death, and the key to curing the disease is most likely hidden in the twisted flesh and blood of the infected.

It is foreseeable that the Gear City Branch will have something to do for a long time to come.

On the issue of preventing the Red Death, the Church of Gear City and the Kingdom Army reached a strategic alliance.

Sitting on Ethan's shoulder, Lindong silently observed everything that was happening, and suddenly felt that Ethan was much more terrifying than the Church or the Inquisition.

Those people can only forge evidence, which often cannot stand up to scrutiny and can be seen through by any discerning person.

But when Ethan accuses someone of being the creation of the evil god, that person will really become the creation of the evil god, witnessed by countless people in public, and others will be eager to eliminate them without Ethan even having to do it himself.

Aisoke eventually died at the hands of the Empire's military production.

Ethan really fulfilled his promise and had him "paraded through the streets", and then was shot to death one by one.

In fact, if she had not known in advance the upgraded effect of Ethan's ice element, she would probably have regarded Asok as a real creation of the evil god.

Both the appearance and the manic muttering seem to be in the same vein as the old artist Bazatos.

This made Lin Dong a little worried. Ethan's aesthetic seemed to be being assimilated by Bazatos.

It seems...

In the future, I will have to use maid costumes more often to eliminate the influence of the evil god's aesthetic on Ethan.
