Chapter 142 The Wasteland of the Earth (15)

"Ah, Miss Molly...you...hello." After Hank turned around and saw the woman, he quickly recognized her and replied hesitantly.

"I've told you many times, Hank, just call me Molly." The woman looked to be about the same age as Hank and shorter than him. Her dress was white, which showed that she was the third residents of the area.

"Are these two your friends? Eh? Why are they wearing protective clothing?" Molly asked doubtfully.

"Miss Molly." Hank's expression was tense, sweat dripping from his temples. He mustered up the courage and said before Feng Bujue spoke: "My friends and I have something to do, and we are not free now. Please Forgive me, I will come back to apologize and explain to you when we are done..." He said and continued to move forward.

"Doing business?" Molly looked at Hank in confusion, "To the third area?" Her eyes quickly fell on Feng Bujue and Kuangzong Jianying again: "Why don't you change out of your protective clothing?" She Her eyes moved upward, and the abnormal height of the two players aroused her suspicion: "Are you also scavengers? What are you going to do?"

Hank stared, "This is an order from the superior." He emphasized his tone: "Please leave it alone, Miss Molly."

"Hank, what's wrong with you?" Molly replied; "You never talk like that."

"Hey..." Feng Bujue spoke at this time: "Actually, he wants to help you." He paused, "Unfortunately, I have decided now that I cannot let you go."

"This is on the street. If you kill someone, you will be surrounded immediately!" Hank lowered his voice and said to Feng Bujue.

"Ms. Molly." Feng Bujue ignored Hank and said to Molly, "I'm sorry, we have to invite you to come with us."

Molly instinctively took two steps back: "Who on earth are you?" She looked at Hank: "Hank, what on earth is going on?"

"Hank has been kidnapped by us. If you yell, run away, or do anything that might attract the patrols, Hank will be killed." Feng Bujue said the threatening words first to prevent the other party. Acting rashly: "I know. You may not believe what I say at this moment, but please use your understanding of Hank and calmly think about the situation at hand to judge whether what I say next is true."

Feng Bujue said: "We have some kind of weapon in our hands that can kill others quickly and effectively, and the two of us also have abilities beyond your imagination, whether it is running speed, jumping power, or survivability. Beyond your understanding of humanity.

If we were exposed, Hank would die immediately. Then we will kill every villager who tries to approach or stop us. Your village will suffer losses of at least thousands of people, not to mention material losses.

But if you are willing to cooperate and take us to visit the front area, we will leave quietly after achieving our goal.

Now you can choose to cooperate with us or start shouting. "

…………

Five minutes later, in the third area.

"It's unbelievable that you actually brought outsiders into the village." Molly whispered to Hank in a complaining tone.

Hank walked beside her. He also replied softly: "I was held hostage... just like the situation we are in now."

"What are you two... I will draw a clear line with you from now on." Molly replied unhappily: "I should have listened to my family and not interact with people in the first area."

"Alas..." Hank opened his mouth to speak. In the end, he still didn't say anything. Many times, even if he had thousands of words, they could only turn into a sigh.

At this time, Feng Bujue and Kuangzong Jianying were walking behind the two of them. Since Molly walked in front, no one from the street patrol came up to ask questions. It seems that finding a resident from the third area to lead the way does work.

"Don't worry, Ms. Molly. You just need to follow us to the junction of the third area and the fourth area." Feng Bujue said at this time: "Next, you can leave."

Molly was obviously stunned when she heard this: "Are you going to enter the fourth area?" She then asked: "What about Hank? Will you also let him go?"

"Hmph...I'm afraid not, and I can't." Feng Bujue replied.

"Heh...thank you." Hank replied with a wry smile.

This answer surprised Molly, but what Hank said next in a self-defeating tone explained everything: "I think...from the moment I brought you into the village, it is impossible for me to continue to work in this village. Stay in the village."

"Oh? I finally realized it." Feng Bujue said.

"I should have thought of this before when you didn't let me go back to life, but you still deceived me." Hank said: "I am really too slow, I just figured it out."

Feng Bujue said: "Then, I can also put it aside. No matter what the outcome of this matter is, as long as you fall into the hands of Kouben's minions, you will definitely die. Only if we succeed, you will have a chance to survive. "

"I don't even know what the hell you're going to do," Hank replied.

Kuangzong Jianying put on a dead fish face, looked at Feng Bujue and said, "Yeah... I'm not sure, can you tell me."

"First of all, what we want to do is definitely not to massacre the villagers. If we want to do that kind of thing, we can directly kill people after entering the residential area." Feng Bujue said: "Secondly, we can't just visit. I don’t think you would really believe that because of the local customs.” He smiled and said, “My main purpose is to obtain the technological knowledge in the temple, and my secondary purpose is to change the social system of this village.”

"What technology are you talking about? There is no technological knowledge at all in the temple. The classics passed down by the gods are recorded there. Only a very small number of priests are qualified to learn them." Molly interrupted at this time.

"These nonsense are all lies that were instilled into you at an age when you were unable to distinguish right from wrong." Feng Bujue said: "The Kouben family only monopolizes some natural science knowledge that you don't know. They don't let you have access to it. That knowledge is used to enslave you with religious lies." He sighed piteously: "Ignorance and panic are two beasts that will always remain hungry and thirsty in the human heart. Only civilization can defeat them, and they will guard the cornerstone of human progress. On the stairs, pioneers are being devoured.

As far as the era in which you live is concerned, a thousand years ago, people burned innocent women as witches, just so that they could sleep peacefully or have a good harvest next year; five hundred years ago. People take Darwin's theory out of context, shout "We are not monkeys", and ban the teaching of evolution in schools. Haha... I don't think there is much difference between these people and monkeys.

And more than two hundred years ago... the people of the Kouben family firmly held the fire of knowledge in their hands, keeping you people who live in darkness and cold in fear and ignorance, so that they can rule and enslave for a long time. . "

"I don't believe your nonsense. The priest has warned us long ago that outsiders are devils who tell lies. Don't even think about using those blasphemous words to distort my beliefs," Molly replied.

"Ah~ they just want to ensure that...when you meet someone who knows the truth, don't be affected by those words." Feng Bujue sneered: "They also asked you to kill outsiders unconditionally, didn't they?"

"Just give up. If you encounter the guards, you will be dead. Their equipment is different from the patrols. They will kill anyone who tries to break into the fourth area, regardless of whether you have hostages in your hands..." Molly still Don't follow Feng Bujue's trick: "As long as you agree to let me and Hank go, I can try to take you out of the village."

"Well... you are better at negotiating than Hank." Feng Bujue said: "But unfortunately, our purpose will not change." He laughed: "And... Hank can no longer stand against the enemy. Ben's over there, right?"

Molly turned to look at Hank in surprise, who showed unprecedented calmness: "I'm sorry. Miss Molly, there is only one way in front of me. It is to act with them. I can't look back."

"Hank..." Molly read: "Have you been bewitched by the evil witchcraft of these two outsiders?"

"No, I'm very sober. I've never been so sober." Hank replied: "Although these two outsiders have repeatedly threatened to kill me, at least they did not use any gods or other rhetoric to manipulate my thoughts. " He said firmly: "If everything the Son of God told us is true, then I am a sinner who helps outsiders and attempts to subvert God. I don't know what the outcome will be. Anyway, at most I will die by my own hand. What if I kill these two outsiders? Will the priests let me go? I will be punished and sentenced to death. "

Kuangzong Jianying smiled for some reason: "Well said. Hank, keep talking."

Hank continued: "And what if these two outsiders are right? What if the so-called sons of gods and priests are all lies?"

"Do you know what you are talking about? Hank, how can this be..." Molly wanted to interrupt him.

Hank asked in return: "Why is it impossible?" He turned to look at Molly: "I was told that I was God's people when I was born, and everything must be obeyed by the Coburn family and the priests' arrangements. As long as I violate them It means that if you violate God's will, you will be punished. My father and brother risked their lives to work and labor, but they could only live a life of luxury, but they did not have to do anything.

I can only learn what they assign me to learn, say what they allow me to say, do what they send me to do, and also praise them and worship them.

If this is God's will, then a god like this is not worthy of my dedication, because it obviously does not want to repay us believers. He just treats us as messengers. Only the Coben family and the priests are human beings. . "

Molly looked at Hank with surprised eyes, "You're crazy..."

"Maybe." Hank said: "But I feel great. I have never felt better than now. For the first time, I feel that my destiny is in my own hands. Even if the price for this feeling is death, I will not It will be a pity.”

"This feeling is called 'zì yóu'." Feng Bujue said: "When the restraint they imposed on your mind is broken, whether you are in jail or on the verge of death, at least from this moment on, you are free. As long as you are alive, no one can take away your freedom again." Feng Bujue said in a very provocative tone: "As long as you help us, overthrow the Kouben family and the priests' monopoly on knowledge, and break their monopoly. Lie... Hank, not only can you survive, you will also become a hero. All your compatriots, including this Miss Molly, can taste the taste of freedom."
