I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

Roland said, "Those six people are six people, but at the same time, they are many, many people!

Miss Florence and five caregivers came to me this morning. I pointed at Miss Florence and said she was 'Williams'.

Then, Florence went mad—Williams also went mad!

The two of them disappeared after that. So, what went out was 'Breanna' and another patient.

I pointed at a caregiver and said he was a secretary.

Then, the caregiver went mad—the secretary also went mad.

So, the caregiver and the secretary disappeared afterward and became two patients.

Therefore, what came in were Florence, the secretary, and the caregivers, and what went out were patients."

Hearing this, the Executive Bishop and the priests were dumbfounded—they didn't understand!

Lord Williams, however, revealed an extremely strange expression: "Mr. Roland means that their self-awareness is confused... a logic lock? A simple theory, an interesting application."

Williams looked at Roland and nodded deeply, saying, "Good, very good."

The Executive Bishop asked, "Lord, what exactly is Mr. Roland saying?"

Williams said, "This morning, it was clearly Mother Florence and the nuns who went to check the rooms. But when they left, they turned into six patients.

So, during this period, someone disappeared.

What disappeared were the head nurse and the caregivers—or rather, they became patients.

Therefore, the multiple-person theory is correct.

The shadow theory is also correct.

The two theories contradict each other, but they are both correct."

Collier suddenly raised his hand, interrupting, "Lord, enough. I have other matters to attend to."

After speaking, he turned and left.

The other priests also expressed with unsightly expressions that they had other matters to attend to, and followed Executive Bishop Collier out—they didn't understand, but their heads hurt.

Lord Williams muttered to himself, "Interesting, interesting. Although there isn't a complete derivation process, this line of thinking is fine.

But what should the formula be like?

Johnson has always said that there are problems with the formula I derived before, but I always thought it was an error. It seems I was indeed wrong.

I should be missing a constant."

He muttered to himself as he walked away—this appearance didn't resemble a bishop at all, but rather a wizard.

Jeanne, standing to the side, revealed an extremely strange expression as she watched Williams' back.

Roland calmly said, "He understood. There's a problem. Now he thinks he's the Black Abyss Elder 'Williams'. Shadow possession."

His senior's expression immediately became extremely unsightly. She asked, "Are you saying that if you stay in this madhouse for too long, you'll be taken over by the shadows? That you might turn into someone else at any time?"

Roland said, "Something like that."

His senior's face immediately turned pale, but then she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, muttering softly, "Fortunately, I didn't come in person. Otherwise, I'd be going crazy with these guys too."

Roland smiled and said, "Humph, same difference, senior. You think you can escape? As long as you enter Saint City, you'll become like this!"

His senior's expression immediately stiffened slightly.

Roland looked into her eyes and asked, "Darling, don't you think you've been getting too into character lately? What do you think your name is?"

His senior was stunned for a moment, and then her body swayed slightly as if she had been hit by a heavy hammer.

She asked, covered in sweat, "If it goes on for too long, what will happen?"

Roland said, "Become one person."

His senior's face turned ashen: "Don't talk nonsense. How can two people become one person?!"

Roland said, "Not two people, everyone becomes one person. There are currently six left."

His senior was dumbfounded. There were clearly over a million people in this city, so how could there only be six left?

She frowned and said, "Are you going crazy again? What nonsense are you spouting?"

Roland looked at her and asked, "Darling, then let me ask you a question."

His senior glared at him and said, "Don't call me darling."

Roland smiled and put his arm around her waist, saying, "What are you afraid of? Your sister isn't here. She won't know."

His senior pushed Roland away angrily and said, "Hurry up and say it. What do you want to ask?"

Roland nodded and asked, "What's the name of that Black Abyss Elder who was imprisoned?"

Jeanne frowned and said, "Isn't it written there—Black Peter. Peter Jefferson Williams."

Roland nodded deeply and said, "That's right, it's written on the list—Black Peter."

He looked at his senior again and asked, "Then, what's the name of the Archbishop just now?"

Jeanne recalled the Archbishop's full name and said, "Peter Jefferson Williams."

Hearing this, his senior's expression became extremely unsightly.

Roland chuckled and said, "What a coincidence, I have a roommate who is a Cardinal-designate. He has the same name as the founding director of the Black Abyss, both called 'Alvin Johnson'!"

Jeanne was dumbfounded.

She suddenly remembered something. When those idiots reported to her before entering, they patted their chests and said something like this.

—"Don't worry, Miss, a sacred artifact is stored in Saint Vermike's Cathedral. A few days ago, we secretly swapped it out.

This sacred artifact is very interesting and is related to the ancient Old Church. It can turn one person into another.

We'll study it for a few days first, and when we understand it, we'll use the power of this sacred artifact to perfectly disguise ourselves as people inside the Holy Spirit Hospital!

Let's experiment first, and when you're about to come over, tell us. We'll perform a ritual at that time and help you disguise yourselves too."

They were disguised too perfectly!

These guys' disguises were indeed very successful—rather than disguises, it was more like possession!

They ate those people!

Now that more than ten years have passed, the people they disguised as have been completely eaten by them.

Even Archbishop Williams might not be completely finished yet, but the memories and perceptions of the two people are becoming more and more confused.

His senior cursed, "These damned lunatics! What trouble have they stirred up! How is the whole city affected!"

Roland said, "Don't worry, we just arrived, there's still hope. Also, the drugs in the Holy Spirit Hospital that purify madness and pollution can have some effect.

You're not too sick yet, take your medicine on time.

Hmm... Corrupted Holy Blood, this kind of thing is also fine. This thing is similar to the Poison of the Ancient Gods, both are a type of pollution."

His senior rubbed her forehead with a headache. She said, "The matter of Vermike must be resolved as soon as possible. If it really doesn't work, tell us earlier, let's leave earlier."

Roland shook his head secretly. I'm afraid it's impossible to leave now.

He didn't say much to his senior. It was useless for her to know, it would only make her worry.

Roland said, "In fact, Catherine, I suggest that we try to call each other by our real names as much as possible afterward, otherwise, once our self-awareness anchor points are messed up one day, we'll turn into someone else.

As for the matter of leaking secrets, I don't think we need to worry about it.

Because the six people share memories.

That is to say, there are no secrets in Vermike."

His senior's expression became extremely colorful, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.

Roland smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, as long as we catch those six and selectively modify some of their memories, everyone's memories will be changed.

Of course, if we don't catch them, there's no need to worry because everyone has become one person. What does it matter whether secrets are leaked or not?"

Jeanne's expression changed for a while, and she suddenly asked, "Roland, don't you think that this kind of mysterious law is very similar to your Forbidden Metamorphosis Art?"

Roland: "."

His senior suddenly revealed a horrified expression and looked at Roland: "The God of Arayashiki wouldn't really exist, would he?"

Roland rolled his eyes and said, "Don't talk nonsense, senior. You know that's just a fictional god, just the visualization method of our family."

After a pause, Roland changed the subject: "Alright, now there's no problem of leaking secrets, tell me, why did the Old School Black Abyss Warlocks appear here?"

His senior sighed and told Roland the whole story.

When Catherine and the others were salvaging the Black Abyss from the abyss, some problems occurred, or rather, there was a deviation in the anchor points.

The deviation of the anchor points caused some of the old Black Abyss to appear in the Southern Territory.

His senior knew this was a warning from her father.

He was telling his senior not to stab her old father in the back.

After all, even if the King of Thousand Eyes believed that his senior really intended to help her father, he couldn't trust the people under his senior's command. In case the old Black Abyss forcibly 'bestowed the yellow robe' on his senior, even if his senior was unwilling, he would have to stab his father in the back.

—The King of Thousand Eyes was right, the old Black Abyss clearly liked to act first and report later!

His senior understood her father's warning, so in order to avoid suspicion, she didn't let the old Black Abyss return by boat. Instead, she let them stay in the south and try to infiltrate the Church first.

As a result, one of these people, a great wit, proposed a very perfect plan—he infiltrated the Saint Vermike Monastery and discovered this Holy Spirit Hospital.

After learning that there were many important figures of the Holy See in the Holy Spirit Hospital, Mr. Great Wit decided to have everyone disguise themselves as these people and replace those important figures.

After explaining the plan to the young lady, everyone hadn't received a reply, so they acted first and reported later, preparing to take credit after doing a good deed.

The plan went very smoothly. This group of people was even feared by the King of Thousand Eyes. If they infiltrated the Twilight Council, they could throw the Twilight Council into chaos.

So, taking care of a Holy City was a piece of cake for them.

Even William, the Archbishop, a demigod-level figure, didn't notice these 'devils' in human skin.

This group of people had been causing trouble under the Archbishop's nose for over a decade!

Only recently did the Holy City discover that there might be a group of black wizards in the city!

Things went very smoothly. Everyone successfully entered the hospital and successfully replaced those people—they even built their own connections!

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

However, they encountered a problem—they couldn't leave!

Because according to the teachings' regulations, they must be cured before they can leave and resume their positions.

But the key is, they really have mental illnesses!

And it's the incurable kind!

The diagnosis is out—terminal illness.

The Archbishop suggested that these people undergo permanent treatment in the Holy Spirit Hospital.

After all, these people are devout followers of the gods. Once they return to the secular world and go crazy, it will have a serious impact on both order and the reputation of the teachings.

Out of desperation, everyone wrote a letter to the young lady, asking her to find a way to get them out.

Catherine hated that smart aleck to death.

By the way, that smart aleck is 'Johnson'.

The Black Abyss Elder is a very cautious person, but Johnson convinced him.

So, it was all Johnson's bad idea!

Of course, as the leader, the Black Abyss Elder can't escape the blame—he had been interested in the Holy Spirit Hospital for a long time!

After cursing in a low voice, the senior sister said, "From what you just said, Johnson's self-awareness is very clear. Get in touch with him as soon as possible. They should know more about the situation. We need to synchronize information."

Roland grunted in agreement, then looked at Diana, who was sitting on the ground knitting a sweater.

Roland asked, "What's up with this guy? Why is she wearing the robes of a Red-Clothed Archbishop?"

Speaking of Diana, the senior sister couldn't help but smile—this is her precious trump card!

She said, "Diana, tell Roland about your identity and mission."

Diana timidly raised her head and said, "Young Lady, don't say that. Although I came here under the guidance of the goddess Hela, I don't understand human affairs very well. So, this mission will still be led by the young master."

Roland understood.

Catherine discovered Diana's diary and then modified it, making her believe that she was the Holy Child.

So, she is the Holy Child.

Or rather, she was originally the Holy Child.

—Yesterday, after I finished reading the diary in front of the senior sister, I began to suspect her identity.

With the senior sister's curiosity, she would definitely check the diary.

She quickly understood what was going on.

The senior sister secretly said to Roland, "You bad thing, you always use diaries to trick people. But you don't think about how to help her solve her cognitive problems."

I used the diary to correct her self-awareness.

Although the senior sister has only studied various subjects for more than three hundred years, she is almost unmatched in certain professional fields.

She should have found the root cause of Diana's self-cognitive confusion and then largely solved the problem through the diary.

The senior sister continued, "Of course, she has many problems that even a god can't solve, so I can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause."

In fact, even the senior sister can't be sure whether Diana's current self-awareness is correct.

In any case, Diana is the perfect spy.

Because there is no issue of her being exposed!

No matter who Diana is, in the eyes of the church, Diana is Hela's most loyal believer, the Holy Child of Hela.

The Holy Child has many privileges.

It can be said that in the ancient era of the gods, the entire world existed to serve the gods and the Holy Children!

The whole world was the playground of the Holy Children, a big sheepfold!

The rise of the wizards gave the sheep human rights.

The emergence of the new teachings gave the church the right to 'manage angels in the human world' and even to restrict gods who descended into the human world and lost their divinity and gained humanity.

The former Pope was a servant of the gods.

The current Pope has become the general manager of the gods' branch in the human world.

But even so, the Holy Children still have great power in the human world—they are the sons and daughters of the major shareholders.

It is even possible that they are the shareholders themselves.

Therefore, in the eyes of the church, people like Diana are equivalent to half a celestial being. In the church, they have the 'right to elect the Pope'! This is almost the same status as the Red-Clothed Archbishops!

Unless the Pope issues an order in the name of the gods, declaring Diana guilty, otherwise it is difficult for ordinary people to convict the Holy Child.

Therefore, what the senior sister brought was not an inspector, but a young grandmother!

Today, the Archbishop knew that Isabella would send someone, but he didn't go out to greet them, but sat at the table eating—he planned to put on airs for the Mysterious Affairs Department.

As a result, as soon as Diana came in, the Archbishop realized that something was wrong. So he immediately put down his knife and fork and personally welcomed her.

The senior sister did lose some dominance, but she used Diana to regain some of it.

Roland thought to himself: 'Great, with Diana here, I can go wherever I want. As long as she says a word, the monastery will even teach me the core mysteries of the Holy Knights, as well as the core mysteries of the path of faith of the Goddess of Dawn!'

Roland was overjoyed. He looked at the statue of the Goddess of Dawn and secretly felt a little excited.

The statue of the goddess in front of him was very lifelike, and seemed to implicitly describe the god.

But this statue should not be the complete version, but a statue to help with prayer. It cannot be used to comprehend the path of faith.

But Roland could still vaguely see something.

He thought to himself: 'Maybe it's because my holy element attribute is particularly high, I feel that I am very suitable for learning the things of the Goddess of Dawn.'

'The Wilmik Monastery is a training school for the Holy Knights and the Great Priests of Dawn. There must be a core statue here.'

'As long as I comprehend it and read through the core literature of the monastery, I will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort.'

Roland always thought that his strength was not enough, so he had no power to fight back in front of a second-tier powerhouse. Therefore, he looked forward to advancing.

In fact, this is not the case.

He also didn't think about it—that second-tier early stage Cyrus was much fiercer than a normal second-tier early stage person. And it was in the sea, his home field!

Although Roland and the others relied on the advantage of numbers and various treasures to kill this BOSS, Roland was a frontal MT!

That move 'Time Stop' was obviously not a magic that mortals could use.

Those six things were not six people at all—they were an aggregate of more than one million people!

So, not to mention Roland, even a normal weak god would be pinned to the ground and dragged to a mental hospital if they encountered those six things!

Among the people Roland knew, only the King of Thousand Eyes could come over and practice with them—even the White Queen couldn't.

But Roland has not yet deeply realized this problem.

So, he thought that his strength was not enough. So he was very eager to advance.

He felt that if he stepped into the early stage of the second tier, then with his treasures, he could compete with a powerhouse in the middle stage of the second tier.

Whether it was the Elegy or the Small Hammer Chisel, they were all incredible secret treasures. But he can't exert their true power now.

But it will be different after advancing—although Roland will not have magic power in the short term after advancing, the Elegy is a sacred object!

This thing was originally used by second-tier priests and knights!

And although the Small Hammer Chisel requires realm and a lot of magic power support, he has the Philosopher's Stone.

With the Philosopher's Stone, he can still use all kinds of magic!

Therefore, after he has an additional priest and Holy Knight profession, his strength will only be improved to a higher level.

Roland planned to ask the monks about the statues and the Holy Hall training after going out for a while.

But they probably won't let people watch these things casually. So what reason should I find?

If it really doesn't work, let Diana tell them.

After making up his mind, Roland planned to leave. 'Jeanne' gave Roland the snake ring and the dimension bag.

She said, "Find our people as soon as possible, confirm who they are, and tell me."
