Chapter 101: God's Lie!

"The order is: I set it, and you must follow it." When this sentence echoes in my mind,

Sitting on the steps, Karen quietly closed his eyes."Master Karen?" Mrs. Janney looked at Karen, who had been talking and laughing with her earlier, with some confusion. She subconsciously wanted to get closer to take a look, but was stopped by Eunice.Alfred also noticed the change in his young master. Although he was standing behind him, he could sense the change in his aura, as if the young master was sitting in the church, devoutly listening to the priest's teachings.Alfred immediately walked down the steps and stood in front of Karen.Although Boggs didn't know what was happening, he also stood behind Karen as soon as he saw Alfred's actions.The two of them stood in front and behind Karen, protecting him in the middle.Seeing this, Eunice immediately pulled her mother away."What is this...""Shh." Eunice made a gesture for her mother to be quiet.Mrs. Janney immediately nodded, indicating that she understood.

Actually, due to their contact in Luo Jia City and their experience of traveling on the cruise ship to Vienna together, Mrs. Jenny had already formed a fixed perception of Karen. In addition, the fact that he is her future son-in-law has caused her to view him with a mother-in-law's eyes for a long time.This has led to a feeling of discomfort for her when she returned home and faced her father-in-law's immense respect for Karen and his rising status within the Allen family.Although this daughter-in-law from an ordinary family knows about the special nature of the Allen family and many secrets within this circle, she has not had deep and direct contact with them.But she doesn't have any bad intentions, she just sometimes likes to deliberately appear "close" when talking about Karen or facing him, in order to gain a sense of vanity and satisfaction in front of her sisters-in-law.In the distance, Mr. Bede, who had been busy driving away the officials from the palace, finally had some free time and started walking back. He really didn't like dealing with the mundane affairs of the family, but with his father being old and his older brother in a wheelchair, he had to step in when serious matters arose.But when his gaze fell on Karen sitting on the steps at the entrance, he subconsciously stopped in his tracks."Divine revelation?"For a long time, no, even spanning several eras, the priests who served the true god actually looked down on those who only focused on exploring their own bloodline potential within the family's belief system.This was a deep-rooted hierarchy of contempt.

Others may not know, but Bede knows what Karen is doing.How long has he been purifying?Each church may have different names for the three stages of "servant of God, revelation of God, and shepherd of God", but they are essentially the same.The servant of God corresponds to "adjusting" one's own body, the revelation of God is receiving instructions from God, and the shepherd of God is receiving certification from God.Each stage may seem similar, but they are also very different. The most important aspect is the stage of "revelation of God".What instructions God gives you can basically determine your weight and position in God's heart.Although all beings are equal under the true God, it is often just a slogan. Perhaps God really thinks this way because he sees all people as ants, and his followers may just be ants with different colors that he finds pleasing.So, what are the ants doing, what are their roles? Even if one is the queen ant, she cannot change the fact that she is an ant in God's eyes.But the ants don't think so.This is like a system of departmental classification. Those who do research and those who do cleaning are all serving the operation of this system, and they are all working hard. But are they really the same?

So, Karen, what is the divine revelation that the God of Order has given you?When Mr. Bede saw Karen close her eyes and exude a devout aura, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again.Because he had experienced a similar scene before. After receiving a revelation from God, he entered a state of reverie, which was a moment that he still deeply missed.In that short period of time, he held a paintbrush and sat on the green lawn in the estate. In less than half a minute, he witnessed the "changing of the seasons" in the estate.When God speaks to you, your perspective, emotions, and inner self can align with God, even though the time is short, it is enough to be remembered for a lifetime.Because that is the most original form of communication between you and God;Unfortunately, it is too short, really too short.Bede deliberately inquired about the related divine revelations and learned that his half-minute time was already quite long. Most divine revelations last no more than three seconds.But even in those three seconds, it can leave a lasting impression on a priest.In addition, the "insights" and "gains" you receive during this time can guide your future and the specific benefits in terms of spiritual growth will vary from person to person.

"It's been five seconds already," Bede thought to himself."It's been ten seconds already."Very impressive."It's been half a minute already."You've surpassed me."It's been a minute already."Tsk, Di's grandson....Karen actually knew what the state of divine enlightenment was like, because Pu'er's original plan was to quickly and effectively reach the position of divine shepherd, and then aim for the level of a judge.

But even for Pu'er tea, I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.Karen didn't expect it either;And at this moment, he was completely focused, simply immersed in this perception.He closed his eyes,But "eyes" were also open;In his ears, he faintly heard the sound of water flowing rapidly, was it his own pool, flowing out?Karen, who had been continuously experimenting with the "Punishment Gun" for more than a week, was no longer unfamiliar with this "flowing water" state. In fact, when he sensed that there was no tearing sensation of his forehead being hit and his nose bleeding, he felt more at ease.Because he knew that his reservoir was very wide and deep, and if it was just normal flowing water, it could flow for a long time.At this moment, the "world" in front of Karen's eyes was gray and white;The first thing he saw was himself, sitting on the steps, and there was a thread spreading out from him.

First, a gray thread spread out, it began to connect far away, and the first place it reached was the busy workers in the auditorium."This job is not difficult.""Yeah, without those guys with white wigs on their heads, this job is obviously easier.""I heard that the master of the Allen family just came out and drove them away.""Hahaha, it's good that they were driven away. Before sunset today, we can finish this job and sleep well tomorrow morning without having to rush to the Allen Manor in the early morning.""Yeah, after finishing today, we should be able to get paid. The Allen family's construction wages are always settled quickly and won't be delayed.""Hurry up, will the Allen Consortium care about owing us this little bit of money? What a joke."A group of workers were working in the auditorium, and the gray thread extending from Karen's body was winding around them one by one, but they were completely unaware.After the thread wrapped around each worker, it continued to spread outward.Outside the auditorium, a group of male servants were rearranging potted plants.

"Just use the flowers in the manor for transplanting, it's very convenient, no need to go outside to transport anymore.""Yes, the ones brought from outside never meet the standards, it's a hassle.""Those royal folks even want specific flowers, ha, why don't they just bring back the prince to the palace for the funeral?""It seems to be a noble honor, to hold a funeral for the royal family.""But I'm not a noble, I can't enjoy such honor.""That's true, but after transplanting these flowers, do we have to transplant them back after the funeral?""I don't think so? But we definitely have to repair the lawns in those areas.""Sigh, that's a lot of work.""How long will you continue to complain? As servants of the Allen family, it is our sacred duty to maintain the beauty of the Allen Manor!""Yes, my lord."

"Yes, my lord steward."The gray silk threads wrapped around these male servants, then made a big circle and entered the castle."These silverware must be carefully polished, they will be used for the funeral.""The plates must also be cleaned, they will be used for the funeral.""In addition, every corner of the castle must not be overlooked. Her Majesty the Queen may stay at the manor on the day of the funeral. We must not lose our manners and embarrass the master and the Allen family!"Inside the castle, all the maids were busy, with gray silk threads running through their bodies.Finally,The silk thread returned to the entrance and entered Karen's body.They, these people, are all following my orders, preparing for the funeral, preparing to welcome Her Majesty the Queen's stay.It was my demands, my rules that I gave them, and they are following the order I established.

Karen frowned, subconsciously, he really wanted to say that this was right, because the rotation of the gray silk had already confirmed that sentence.[Order is: I set it, and you must follow it.]But Karen also instinctively felt that something was wrong. Perhaps, this could be a response to God's test, but it could not confirm his own heart.They are doing things according to my requirements, but the workers are for the sake of money, and the servants are for the honor of the Allen Manor.Even without me, they are still walking, but because of my appearance, they have changed their current direction of walking. However, my appearance may also be one of their daily walks.Everything about God is supreme, and what God says is equivalent to the truth of the rotation of the sun and moon.But for some people,Dialectics,It is almost engraved in the spiritual sea.Even if he,

Facing God!At this moment, Karen found another thread extending from her body. It first wrapped around Alfred, who was standing in front of her, then turned to wrap around Borg, and then wrapped around Mrs. Janine and Eunice. It also wrapped around Mr. Anderson in the distance, and... wrapped around Mr. Bede.Immediately after,The thread once again entered the castle, as if searching, and as if heading towards a predetermined destination;It wrapped around Puer and the Golden Retriever, and inside the castle, on every person.In the next moment,The threads on each person began to change colors, and each color seemed to represent a different order attribute that radiated from itself as the center.For a moment,Karen's mind was filled with colorful threads, the intricate colors, the special meanings, as if a huge spiritual impact directly hit her mind."Boom!"

Karen felt as if her head was being pierced by a severely corroded iron rod at this moment."Ah! Ah! Ah!"After the most intense c****x, the surroundings suddenly returned to silence, but the expected end did not come.In front of him, it was pitch black and he couldn't see any stars or moon when he looked up.He suddenly felt very cold, even though there was no wind, the chilling coldness kept coming in waves.Karen instinctively wanted to hug himself for warmth, but was shocked to find that he had no arms!He lowered his head and realized that he seemed to have completely merged into this darkness, truly merged, because he was "completely exposed".Like a soul, a lonely soul;After realizing this fact, Karen felt even colder, completely losing the sense of security, feeling lost, helpless, and a despair as if he had been abandoned by the world.Karen began to "walk" forward, not knowing if he was really walking because he had no feet, and even the darkness on both sides could not give him any "reference" for his walking.

But in order to leave this place, one must instinctively move forward. It's impossible to just stay here and cry.This may be Karen's own belief, it's not grand, it's afraid of death, afraid of setbacks, and afraid of pressure. When faced with various negative attributes, it will be pulled and kneaded.It will also cry,But even when crying, it will continue to move forward with determination.This has nothing to do with any belief, nor does it have anything to do with any ideals. It's not about proving anything.The world may abandon you, but at least you have to be responsible for yourself.Perhaps the word "responsible" is too big, in short, you have to be able to live with yourself.Gradually,Karen sensed a new "reference point", because he found himself getting colder and colder. This sense of progression is like a person getting closer to a bonfire and feeling warmth. In short, he is really moving forward....

"Is it not over yet?" Mr. Bede had completely lost control of his expression, his shocked look very clear.Because the other people in his family were either ordinary people or followed the family's belief system, they did not have a clear understanding of this situation.But he knew, he had experienced it, and it was precisely because of his experience that he understood how precious this "process" was.At this moment,An image appeared in Bede's mind, in which an old man was sitting there, and he was standing respectfully in front of the old man."I don't like the Wall God religion, not because of the relationship with the God of Order, nor because of the teachings of the Wall God religion.But because I feel that you followers of the Wall God religion have long misunderstood your teachings, and they are almost crazily pursuing abandonment, hoping to find beauty in dedicating themselves to art.""Can teachings be wrong?" Bede asked respectfully."Can teachings be wrong?""Teachings are the will of God."

"God, can't you be wrong?""Please forgive me, I cannot understand you.""I really want to know, do you feel pain?""Pain...""The more you want to give up, the more it is something you truly care about. Some ties are not limited to just a surname or a bloodline awakening.""I...I don't know.""I allow your daughter to become my grandson's wife.""Thank you for your mercy and reward.""I am very pleased.""If you are willing, I would like to listen."

"As an elder, the thing we least want is to see our mistakes repeated by the younger generation.""Do you think you have also made mistakes in your life?""What if you have been on the wrong path from the beginning?""Well...""The further you go, the more mistakes you make.""I am foolish, because I do not understand.""Perhaps, one day you will understand.""Understand...what?""You will understand, God..."

Actually, he will deceive you."...Jinmao carried Puer and went down the stairs, arriving at the door.At this moment, Alfred and Boge were still protecting Karen in front and back."Wang~" Jinmao whispered."So fast... has he been enlightened?" Puer widened his cat eyes, "It's just like Di Si back then."In Puer's established understanding, Di Si was a unique exception. Perhaps in the future, some geniuses could be compared to Di Si, but they could never be like him.Because Di Si was the only one;But the scene in front of him forced Puer to admit that Karen, Di Si's grandson, was replicating Di Si's path."His foundation is very solid, solid enough to make most of the servants of the gods feel desperate. So when he receives enlightenment, he will be even more inspired."

"Looking forward to it, really looking forward to it. What kind of divine revelation will the God of Order give to Karen?""Woof~" The golden retriever barked softly again."Hmm?" Pu'er jumped off the golden retriever's back and slowly moved to Karen's side. In the process, it saw the clear look of "astonishment" on Mr. Bede's face.Yes, astonishment.And when Pu'er saw Karen's expression, it was also stunned.Because on Karen's face, there was no devout and happy expression of listening to the divine revelation. Instead, he furrowed his brows and bit his lip, as if enduring some kind of pain, or having a nightmare.Is he still... receiving the divine revelation?...It's cold, so cold.Although in this pitch-black darkness, Karen had no limbs, but due to long-term habit, he still maintained this perception.

Legs, already frozen stiff, unable to bend;Arms, unable to swing, only fixed at the sides of the body;Skin, starting to c***k, the fresh blood inside seems to have frozen;Brain, already in a daze, the brain matter seems to have frozen as well.Even the soul, has been frozen into an ice sculpture, afraid to touch, one touch will cause it to shatter.At this moment,Any warmth,Even a match, is enough to drive a person crazy, willing to do anything to grab it, even swallow the flame.In a daze,Karen felt a phrase constantly appearing in her mind:

"Order is what I have set, and you must follow.As long as you silently recite it,As long as you follow it,As long as you believe in it,You will end all suffering and return to warmth.Under your feet is a frozen kingdom, ahead is a fallen hell.Only by chanting his name, only by praising his greatness, can one truly be redeemed.But Karen did not do so, he stubbornly continued on."

He longed for warmth, for fire, but the more that sentence churned in his mind, the more numb he felt. It was a strange feeling, like drowning and someone on the shore trying to save you with a bamboo pole, but instead of being grateful, you grew to hate them more and more! It didn't make sense, but it was happening. At that moment, Karen heard the sound of running water, gradually becoming fainter. This state was about to end. After the water dried up, he would once again fall into a coma, escaping from the current torture. It was a relief, a self-forgiveness without any psychological burden.

It's not that he didn't persist, even though he wasn't sure what he was persisting for. It's not that he didn't try, even though he didn't understand if his efforts were right or wrong.But finally, he can lie down and end it all.However,A surge of anger rises in Karen's heart,Why does it have to end like this, why?Karen continues to move forward, not knowing what lies ahead, maybe there is nothing ahead;But he still has to keep going, while his strength hasn't completely drained, he will take one more step!At this moment,Grandpa's voice echoes in Karen's mind:"Because of you, Karen, you don't believe in God."

Karen laughed,He finally understood why,Because he didn't believe in God, he could accept purification from God and learn magic, but when it came to sitting down and listening to God's teachings, because he didn't believe in God, he naturally doubted what he said.If God's words are the alternation of night and day, then I will... walk from night to day, to verify it!Because, I'm afraid you will deceive me!Finally,The water dried up,Karen felt that he really couldn't "walk" anymore, but he still forced himself to take another step forward, or rather, threw his body out, even if it was just half a meter, half a centimeter, or even half a millimeter, he had to complete it!"Thump!"Karen fell to the ground,

The cold chill disappeared in an instant, and the surroundings changed from pitch black to a greyish-white with visibility. Immediately after, Karen was shocked to see that her hands could move her body, they were actually there the whole time. Then, Karen turned her head and looked behind her, she realized that the path she was walking on was a greyish-white canyon, and she had been following the grooves on the sides of the canyon. I have hands, I have feet, I can walk on my own, I am not lost, and I don't need to despair. The long darkness covered the path that was already here, I don't need guidance. So, was I drowning? No, I wasn't. Instead, it was the person with the bamboo pole struggling in the water. The pole he reached out was not to save you.

But I want to pull you into the water with me.[Order is what I set, and you must follow.]This voice echoed in my mind again;Karen laughed,laughed happily,as the surroundings were quickly collapsing, as consciousness was about to return,he shouted loudly:"Before you set it, order was already there!"
