Picking Up Beautiful Girls In The Post-Apocalyptic World!
Chapter 77 - The Chosen.
The room they took Han to was a small one with only one bed pushed to the end of the wall. There was a chair and table on the other end of the room with a paper, pen, and a black book on it.
Han was given a bundle of clothes and then told to change and meet the rest of them outside. The bundle was a priest robe with a large chain cross on it. Han changed into it and couldn't deny that it was more comfortable than his former clothes. And although he wasn't the most religious person in the world, he wondered why the cult was using the cross as their symbol, weren't they worshiping some other god? It was strange that they would still have the symbol of Christianity.
Oh well, Han just had to play along with them for now. They were a bunch of eccentric people who all believed he was one of the greatest saints sent to bring them salvation. So he would just have to use this privilege to his advantage.
Han walked out of the room to see the woman that injected him still standing there. She had a reverent look in her eyes and looked up at him like a god.
"My, lord. Praise be the Lord's name for only he is our savior..."
Erhh.... yeah....Did she expect him to give a response now? It was obvious that she was waiting for something from him. Oh, wait, what was it that all those people were answering while they were gagged and even when they were in the crowds, Praise the lord, right?
"Praise the lord,,,.?"
The woman's face brightened up and she fell to her knees before Han immediately. She began to cry and shout and yell.
"Praise the lord! Praise the lord! Praise the lord!"
Damn, these people are all insane!! Was that really all he needed to do to avoid suspicion? Just chant a single phrase over and over again? It was like a game on simple mode!
After a long time of the woman simply trying her best to bang her head on the ground, Han finally had enough of her stupidity and told her to get off the floor.
"Isn't there somewhere we were meant to go?"
"Ah! Yes! Oh. Lord, forgive me for i have departed from your will! Punish me lord! Punish me for i have put my desires before your own!"
"Just take me there!"
"Of course!"
The woman bolted off the floor like nothing happened before she began leading Han through the hallway. There were dim candle lights arranged along the wall and this finally allowed Han to see the woman's features.
She was a simple looking woman that Han didn't think he ever met before. She had brown hair that fell in front of her face in bangs and brown wide eyes that Han wouldn't be surprised to see on a maniac. Her back was straight and she walked with the stride of a person who was used to silently moving across surfaces. She was so silent!
Was she an assassin?
Now that Han really tried to listen, Han realized that he almost couldn't even hear her footsteps at all as they walked! If not for his enhanced senses he definitely wouldn't be able to hear her coming up from behind him! Did that mean she was an [Unchanged]? It would make sense for her to be one too since she was on top of the wall with all those zombies. They wouldn't make the normal people that were not affected by the virus do something like that. Right?
The two of them walked into a room where all the other people that Han lined up with were. The ones that managed to break their bricks were standing to one side while the ones that couldn't break them were on the other side.
On a stage in the middle of the room was the bald man with a crooked nose. He had his hand spread wide like he was about to receive a hug from an invisible person and Han could see all the other people 1looking towards the man with unrivaled reverence.
"For the lord has called us here today to worship him! For the lord has given unto us the will to do his word! Let it be known that we are the servants of the lord! We are his children now and forever!"
"Praise the lord!"
Everyone changed and then the bald man opened his eyes and looked towards Han. Ah, good. Now that Han was there he could begin his actual purpose! The sermon was over, but that did not mean Han would miss out on the blessing of the lord. He was one of the chosen of the lord, so surely he would be closer to the lord than all of them!
"May the lord be praised for we have amongst us one of the lord's chosen! He is one of the children of the lord promised to us in the book of the prophets! May his name be praised as we follow in the ways of the chosen!"
The room was silent and everyone turned towards Han expectantly with wide, reverent eyes.
"Uh... Praise the lord"
"Praise the lord!!!"
Oh God. Han could already tell that this was going to be a pain in the ass! How was he one of the chosen!? Was it just because he managed to break a rock better than other people broke a rock!? It's just a rock!
The bald man shook in happiness before shooing his hands forward and his head upwards. He had an expression of pure bliss on his face as he received the word of the lord from his creator. He was one of the select few who was fortunate enough to receive such a blessing! He was going to pray for an hour longer today to thank the Lord for his grace!
Nine hours of prayer was not too small for the lord!!
"My brethren, you are truly fortunate! May we remain steadfast as we listen to the words of our lord's chosen!"
Han eyed the crowd wearily! Did they just say he was going to give a talk!? That was definitely not going to happen! He had no tolerance for spouting nonsense praise for some false god!
But Han was not the person the balding man was talking about. The curtain on the other side of the room opened and a woman wearing the ling black robes of the priests entered. She had a large hood drawn over her head and came to stand in the center of the stage.
The man immediately bowed to her while moving backward. He did not deserve to be on the same stage as a chosen of the lord! The fact that he was there for this short time would be the highlight of his life! They would surely write this on his gravestone!
The woman put her hands on her hood and threw it down and Han's eyes flew open in shock as he saw who it was!
Rin Woo began the sermon of the lord.
"Praise the lord for he is kind! Praise the lord for he is merciful! Praise the lord for his will be done!"
"Praise the lord!!"
