American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool

Chapter 449 Cause of the Incident
"Where is this?"

Negan, who had fallen asleep in a daze after returning to the hotel, suddenly "woken up" and found himself in an unfamiliar church. The overall layout was a bit like the church in a Christian town, but this place revealed a retro style everywhere.

Moreover, in the place of the statue, it is not the Virgin Mary, but Jesus who was nailed to the cross.

Yes, what is now displayed in the church of the Christian town is the statue of the Virgin Mary.

In the "dream", Negan was observing the surrounding situation when suddenly a white light flashed in front of his eyes, and a woman with a holy halo appeared in front of him.

"You, you are the Virgin Mary?" After seeing the woman's face clearly, Negan's throat tightened a little.

There is no doubt that the woman of holy light in front of me is exactly the same as the Virgin Mary described in the Bible.

"No, although my name is also Maria, I am not the Virgin Mary. I am the devil Satan, the woman who stayed in the human world~" Black Maria explained her identity.

What is a devil's woman? Of course she is also a devil.

Hearing the woman introduce herself, Negan was startled and retreated to the statue of Jesus and said, "This is a church. What do you want to do?"

"Of course I'm here to find you. You have a congenital heart disease and are about to die. Jesus can't save you, but I can." Black Maria showed a weird smile.

"Heart disease? You must be kidding~" Negan was sure that he was in good health and did not have any congenital heart disease.

But before Negan could refute, he found that he could no longer control his body.

As his thoughts merged, Negan saw his previous "self" from a third-person perspective.

He was 100% sure that the young man in priest's clothes in front of him was not himself.

"What do I need to do for you?" Then, the young man in front of him began to act on his own, without being controlled by Negan.

This young man in priest's clothes is Alice's grandfather, and everything in the dream happened in 1944.

After integrating his memories, Negan finally figured out his own situation. He is now reviewing the "story" of Alice's grandfather from a third-person perspective.

In the story, Alice's grandfather agreed to a "deal" with Black Maria in order to cure his heart disease.

He helped Black Maria build a statue in the church to help her collect faith.

Black Maria helped Alice's grandfather recover his health.
As for the reason why Black Maria collected faith, she said that she needed this thing to help her improve her strength so that she could go to hell and meet her lover Satan.

Of course, these are all excuses. In fact, Black Maria and the Demon King don't have such a close relationship. She is at most his concubine or maid.

Of course, Black Maria’s desire to improve her strength is real, but collecting faith is fake.

What she really needs are the souls of her believers.

Alice's grandfather in the dream also realized this very quickly. As believers in the town died one after another, he finally chose to face the devil, Black Maria.

Then, he made public the fact that Black Maria was a demon, and then he gathered the residents of the town, tied the Black Maria who possessed the statue to a big tree in front of the church and burned it.

The "story" ends with Black Maria in flames, her face distorted.

"It's well cooked."

Things had a happy ending, and Negan, who watched it all from a third-person perspective, couldn't help but applaud.

Then, he woke up.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Negan, who had truly woken up this time, also connected the entire incident together.

"The flames did not completely burn Black Maria. She was probably sealed in a doll by Alice's grandfather before he suffered a heart attack..."

'This is equivalent to offending the other party.'

"That night, without knowing it, I crushed the puppet that sealed the devil and released the devil Black Maria..." "Now, Black Maria is seeking revenge on Alice, the descendant of a priest..."

"Oh no, Alice is in danger~" After figuring out the whole thing, Negan realized that the girl who was blessed by miracle should now have become the prey of the devil.

Negan mistakenly thought that all this was caused by him stepping on the doll and felt that he needed to do something for the girl.

So he put on a T-shirt, rushed out of the hotel and ran towards the church.

By this time, it was already evening, and the foggy Christian town seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist.

"Would you like some? This pizza tastes good~" In front of the Christian town church, Mike had already finished his dinner and handed a piece of pizza to Father James standing next to him.

In the Christian town today, except for those who have been treated by Alice and become "believers", other residents remain normal.

However, as the strange events at the church became more and more serious, the normal residents all hid in their homes and generally did not go out.

The pizza that Mike ate was a scarce commodity that was bought by sending Team X members to a half-closed restaurant in the town.

"I'm not hungry, thank you~" Father James frowned and rejected Mike's kindness.

He couldn't understand why Mike could still act so relaxed at this moment.

"What are your plans?" Father James watched Mike eat five servings of pizza, and then leisurely drank two large cups of milk tea, and finally couldn't help but ask.

"What are you going to do?" Mike leaned against the sports car and said, "Wait for the demon to appear, then destroy it."

The reason he was blocking the door of the church was to monitor Alice. As long as this girl was there, the devil would definitely appear again.

Moreover, according to the information collected by Mike, when Alice comes every evening, she will bring down a "miracle" and bless the believers.

Judging from the sky, it should be about time.

At this moment, the church suddenly became brightly lit, followed by waves of hymns praising Mary.

"Finally I've waited for you~" Mike said with a smile on his face.

In his perception, the originally ordinary church exuded a foul smell of decay.

This is a sign that the Lord has appeared.
"Let's go in and take a look." Mike stood up and walked towards the church door, not forgetting to call Father James.

"What did you find?" Father James straightened up and chased after him and asked, "Also, how do you plan to get in?"

The door of the church had been locked from the inside by Alice and the "believers", so it was not easy to enter from the outside.

Of course, Mike didn't consider these. He gently pushed the church door, and with the sound of the wooden stick breaking, the door was successfully pushed open.

"What did you just say?" Mike walked into the church and looked back at Father James who was standing outside the door with his eyes wide open.

"No, nothing..." Father James looked at the wood chips scattered on the ground and swallowed. Then he calmed himself down and said, "I mean, you suddenly acted. Did you find something?"

"Yes~" Mike nodded, turned around and looked at the girl standing devoutly under the statue of Mary in the depths of the church, and said in a faint voice: "The devil has jumped out by himself~"

[Power of Corruption]... [Possession Ability]... [Seduction Ability]...

The characteristic light balls floating in the air also prove that Mike's perception is indeed correct.

At the same time, the believers surrounding the girl Alice all seemed to have a last burst of energy and became very energetic.

Only Mike knew that their vitality was slipping away, or to be more precise, their soul energy was fading.

It won’t be long before this group of people will die suddenly one after another, and no problems will be found among them.
