Alessa's true body had not died, so the Otherworld still descended. Accompanied by warning sounds, many residents poured out of buildings and ran towards the church.
Taking advantage of the transition between the Overworld and the Otherworld, Yang Tao led Sibyl and Rose into the church.
Their appearance immediately drew the attention of everyone in the church, and all eyes were fixed on the three of them.
No one spoke, and their numb and wary gazes made even Sibyl, the police officer, feel a chill down her spine.
Yang Tao, however, paid no mind to these souls who should be in Nether. Instead, he stared at the woman standing on the high platform at the deepest part of the church's main hall.
Yang Tao's lips curved slightly upward.
Because he seemed to have guessed some things wrong.
The other people hiding in the church were all dressed in gray clothes. Only Chrisbella wore a purple gown, a clear visual contrast that made her immediately noticeable.
She was like an arrogant white swan, surveying him, Sibyl, and Rose with a condescending gaze.
Yang Tao walked step by step towards her, and the residents blocking his path instinctively made way.
When he was about to reach the foot of the high platform, the figures standing behind Bella, armed with various cold weapons and with their faces covered, walked from behind her to stand in front of him, blocking his way up the steps.
Bella had a calm smile on her face. She gently motioned for the guards standing in front of her to move aside, then looked at Yang Tao and said, "Stranger, since You have come to the sanctuary, You must listen to God's teachings, otherwise I have the right to expel You…"
"Bang!"
"Ah~"
Bella was shot in the leg and slumped to the ground.
"You don't even have divine protection, so why do so many people believe You? I really can't figure it out…"
Then, a wooden door appeared behind Yang Tao, and the remaining dozen or so Iron Golems from the Main World streamed out from it. The cultists, who were about to riot, immediately stopped.
These surviving souls were more afraid of death than the last, otherwise they wouldn't have appeared in this church, seeking Bella's protection.
"Madam Bella, where is your God?"
"You, a living person, deceiving these souls… Tsk tsk, what a show You put on."
Bella had lost her initial composure and frantically screamed at the surrounding cultists, "Kill him, otherwise You will all die at the hands of the Demon King."
Bang…
Another bullet pierced Bella's shoulder.
Some fanatics heeded Bella's call and raised their weapons, charging towards Yang Tao.
However, these weak soul bodies were even worse than the small monsters outside. With only about ten health points, they couldn't even withstand one punch from an Iron Golem.
Poof… Poof…
These charging fanatics were sent flying backward, falling to the ground and turning into dust, disappearing. Only a few experience orbs were left on the ground, proving their past existence.
"You are a demon! You are a demon!"
Bella was screaming like a madwoman. Yang Tao stuck out his pinky finger, picked his ear, and said with a smile, "Yes, I am a demon, so what? Come and hit me?"
When others suspect You have weapons of mass destruction, You'd better actually have them…
Bella's body retreated two steps on the ground, and she looked at Yang Tao with malicious eyes, saying, "I curse You, I curse You to go to Nether and suffer endless torment!"
"Cough cough, excuse me, interrupting for a moment. For me, a demon, going to Nether is like going home. How about You curse me to go to heaven instead?"
Bella: "..."
Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, or being angered, Bella rolled her eyes and fainted.
Yang Tao ascended the high platform, turned around, and looked at the terrified believers, saying, "You bunch of guys who worship an evil god, considering that You were deceived, I have decided to give You a chance."
He took out an Iron Pickaxe from his backpack and threw it into the crowd below.
Then he raised his gun and pointed it at the person closest to the Iron Pickaxe, saying, "Pick it up."
The person's body trembled, and he looked at Yang Tao in terror, making no move.
"Pick it up!! I told You to pick up the pickaxe!!"
Yang Tao's angry voice echoed through the church. The person snapped out of it and scrambled to pick up the Iron Pickaxe from the ground.
In an instant, Yang Tao's face broke into a brilliant smile, saying, "Very good!"
"You can live, and I will also bestow upon You food to live on, and the chance to live freely in Silent Hill town."
Clang…
Another Iron Pickaxe dropped to the ground.
A nearby believer immediately squatted down and picked up the Iron Pickaxe from the ground. He was about to speak, but then he saw that Yang Tao had already raised his gun and aimed it at his forehead.
Bang.
"Remember, what I give You is Yours. If I don't permit it… this is the consequence."
As he said this, the fallen figure had already turned to ashes and disappeared before everyone's eyes.
"You, pick up the Iron Pickaxe!"
The bloody suppression worked very well. The person Yang Tao pointed at immediately picked up the Iron Pickaxe.
Yang Tao's face showed a brilliant smile, but this smile sent an inexplicable chill down the spines of these believers.
"All of You stay here quietly…"
With that, Yang Tao stepped down from the high platform and, feigning seriousness, said to Iron Bro, "If anyone runs around, then slaughter him."
In reality, Iron Bro couldn't understand such complex commands. It could understand commands like attack, stop, and guard, but watching this group of people was a bit difficult for it.
However, Yang Tao didn't care, because the cultists below understood.
He didn't believe that these cowards would risk their lives to test whether the Iron Golem would kill them.
Seeing Yang Tao descend from the high platform,
Rose immediately ran over anxiously and asked, "Yang, my… my daughter."
"Let's go, I'll take You to find your daughter."
Through the mini-map, Yang Tao had already discovered Sharon, who was located behind the church. Compared to Rose, who only cared about her daughter, the policewoman Sibyl followed the two of them with a complex expression to the space behind the church.
Sharon was confined in a special room. The door was an iron door, and through the small window on the door, one could see the little girl Sharon lying on a single bed inside.
Yang Tao glanced at it, took an Iron Pickaxe from his backpack, and in a few swift movements, dug down the sturdy iron door.
Rose immediately ran into the room excitedly and embraced her daughter: "Sharon, wake up… wake up… Mommy's here."
Watching the mother and daughter reunite, Yang Tao chuckled and handed the pistol back to Sibyl: "Thank You for your gun, it's quite useful, just a bit weak in power. I somehow thought a shot would make a fist-sized hole in a person."
Sibyl took the pistol and put it back in her waistband.
"This is a Glock 17, not an M500…"
"What exactly do You want to do? Can You tell me?"
Yang Tao looked at Rose and her daughter and said with a smile, "You might not believe it, but I am saving these deceased spirits."
"If I hadn't intervened, only Rose and her daughter and Alessa's mother would have survived in all of Silent Hill."
"Everyone else, including You, would have died in this church…"
"And now, I want to use the life of the culprit Bella and the treatment of Alessa as a price to see if I can gain ownership of these spirits."
If not… then I can only send Alessa on her way, but before that, she can personally kill Bella to complete her revenge.
