Chapter 279 Let’s try this one
“What should I do, do you want to do it?” The blood spider was eager to try.
"I'm new here, and I don't know the depth of the water in this world yet, so don't act rashly for the time being." Bai Pu said softly, "I have an idea..."
At this time, the atmosphere of the assembly hall Already instigated by Father Thorn, infected by the crazy mental state, more and more curious people "embracing suffering" appeared.
The woodcutter, who had been beating his thighs with thorns, took off the firewood he was carrying. While weeping, he praised the Virgin loudly and even stuffed the wood into his throat until his eyes. Suddenly, he died of suffocation.
The crazy people instinctively felt fear when they saw the dead woodcutter.
Priest Thorn shouted loudly: "This man is not pious enough, and his pain is not enough, so God did not accept him!"
Bai Pu can feel the invisible and qualitative spiritual fluctuations, As the shouts of Father Thorns spread throughout the audience.
What is more embarrassing is that the whole audience is doing crazy and curious hugging and painful movements. Bai Pu and Xue Spider, two normal people, are extremely eye-catching.
Of course, their appearance and clothes also appear to be out of tune with this world.
"Who are you? You have heard the miracles of the great Virgin of Thorns and other favored ones, and you are not touched at all? What a cold and hard heart, even the blood of the Virgin cannot change it!"
In the shouts of Father Thorn, the crazy people present seemed to have found the target of bullying.
"Whoever can take off their heads may be favored by God!" Father Thorn shouted loudly.
Suddenly, the crazy people swarmed towards Bai Pu and the Blood Spider like sharks that smelled the smell of blood.
“Wait!”
Bai Pu's language was transmitted through the automatic translation function, and he shouted loudly: "I am also a believer in the Holy Mother!"
"What evidence do you have?" Father Thorns signaled the people to stop.
Bai Pu remained silent as he took off his armor and the silk shirt underneath, revealing his strong muscles.
He took out a bottle of ointment and smeared it on his body.
Blushing, the blood spider picked up a wooden stick and smashed it with his hand.
"Praise the Holy Mother! Praise the suffering!"
Bai Pu roared louder than Father Thorns, "My assistant, please don't hold back, help me embrace the pain more deeply! Only in this way can I get God’s favor!”
The blood spider gritted its teeth and closed its eyes.
Pah, pah!
The wooden stick shattered with a sound.
After all, it was a random stick, not equipment.
An ordinary wooden stick, under the elastic force of Bai Pu's tendon flesh, can endure so many beatings before breaking into pieces. It can only be said that this is a world with a strength of 3.6.
Bai Pu's body surface also showed signs of slight blueness.
This is equivalent to the blood spider using its own power to attack Bai Pu with its bare hands, which will cause mild bludgeoning damage. Of course, after Bai Pu turned on adaptive evolution of defense, this bludgeoning damage was basically the same as his life recovery speed.
“Hmm! It seems that your faith is very pious!”
Father Thorn looked at the Blood Spider aside: "What about you?"
The Blood Spider pointed to his mouth and remained silent.
Bai Pu said: "The way she embraces pain is eternal silence. She will never say a word before she gets the favor of God!"
"...Well, it is true that few people try it. But I want to warn you, young believer! The more intense the pain, the more likely you are to get favored by God!" Father Thorn said to Blood Spider. Bai Pu got the hint.
[Priest of Thorns: Arius’s favorability towards you has increased by 200 points. Current favorability level: Neutral (100/300)]
The blood spider also received the same prompt, but the favorability she gained was only 50 points, the current favorability level is even only cold (-50/0)!
It can be seen from this that the Church of Thorns is actually quite hostile to outsiders.
In general spiritual planes, the initial favorability of the natives is mostly neutral. However, the initial favorability of this very enthusiastic-looking Priest of Thorns is actually cold, minus 100 points!
Priest Thorn handed Bai Pu a dark iron rod: "I admire your devout faith in embracing pain. With your potential, ordinary wooden sticks are useless, let's try this one ”
There were sharp spikes on the iron rod, and there were even stains of dried blood on it. After taking it, Bai Pu's palm sank.
[Reprimand Stick (rental)]
[Equipment quality: Elite (blue)]
[Equipment location: One-handed]
[Equipment Requirements: Basic Strength 20】
[Attribute: Additional attack power 8~15 points]
[Additional skill: Painful Discipline: Passive, the attack hits the body and causes additional pain. 】
[Durability: 66/80]
[Explanation: The disciplinary stick of the Church of Thorns was also the murder weapon that took away the lives of 12 believers. 】
Bai Pu could only express his gratitude.
"The way you express your gratitude is to walk on the path of piety and accept stricter discipline!" Father Thorn signaled the Blood Spider to take action.
Obviously Father Thorns did not directly believe that Bai Pu and Bai Pu were devout believers, so he wanted to give them a first-hand test.
The blood spider looked at Bai Pu with some embarrassment.
This is different from attacking with bare hands. When the blood spider holds a weapon, the damage caused by the attack must be calculated based on its own strength bonus, combat expertise bonus and level suppression bonus.
And with Father Thorn and his subordinates watching, the Blood Spider can't let go even if it wants to.
"Come on! I will prove my faith to God!" Bai Pu's performance gradually became better.
The blood spider could only take the admonition stick and hit Bai Pu hard.
Bang!
The barbs of the iron rod brought out traces of blood, and bruises and swellings appeared quickly.
Bai Pu silently activated the active effect of Steel Skin, and blood river fighting energy flowed on the surface of the skin.
Lines of mysterious runes emerged on Bai Pu's body. This was exactly how the Blood River Dou Qi circulated according to rules.
Under the infiltration of the ointment applied in advance, the swellings subsided at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Exclamations sounded one after another.
“Divine grace!”
Beside Father Thorn, a holy warrior from Thorn Church excitedly shouted, “Oh my god, I actually saw divine grace! Praise the Virgin, praise suffering ! ”
The people below fell to their knees one after another, pressing their foreheads to the ground. Many people shed tears of excitement, chanting the teachings of the Church of Thorns and chanting slogans of praise.
Priest Thorns hesitated when he saw that Bai Pu was enjoying himself under the full force of the iron rod.
But at this time everyone believed that this was divine grace, and it was God's favor that Bai Pu received by embracing suffering! The doubts in his heart were quickly put aside, and he said loudly: "Yes, this is divine grace. Young foreigner, you have the potential to become a favored one by God! Come with me, return to the Church of Thorns! I will invite the saint Vitex, help you get the favor of God as soon as possible!”
