Chapter 182: The Little Classroom
While communicating with the dead spirits just now, William discovered something.
These dead spirits seemed to be able to share their vision.
For example, when asking for information about the Progenitor Mountain Man, the dead spirits acted as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
But through [Atonement Persuasion], William knew they had never left the altar.
If his guess was correct, as long as he won over the dead spirits here, the other altars in the dense forest might also defect.
So William immediately put on a look of regret.
"The Mountain Men have harmed you so miserably. You had families, friends, and many unfulfilled wishes."
"But because of an accidental passing, those Mountain Men deprived you of these rights and trapped your souls here to suffer torture..."
He spoke with emotion, denouncing the atrocities of the Mountain Men.
The dead spirits gradually reacted.
Those beautiful images remaining in their memories made the viciousness of the Mountain Men appear even more hateful.
For a time, ghostly howls rang out in various parts of the dense forest.
At a certain altar.
Two Mountain Men were stationed here; they discovered the anomaly of the dead spirits.
"..."
One of the Mountain Men looked puzzled.
But its companion waved its hand, indicating that these dead spirits just hadn't suffered for too long.
So it took out a long whip emitting black fog and lashed it fiercely on the dead spirits.
At the Forest Classroom.
The scene of the violence surfaced before the eyes of every dead spirit.
Their hatred became more intense.
William noticed this change, so he took the opportunity to mobilize the dead spirits against the Mountain Men.
And promised them that afterwards, he would personally pray for blessings to let their souls return to peace.
For a time, the dead spirits responded one after another.
Lea stood aside, her mouth wide open.
She stared at William as if looking at a monster.
What is the background of this priest?
He has access to high-quality Holy Oil, his strength might be comparable to a Templar Knight.
He also knows how to take hostages, communicate with dead spirits and monsters...
Lea recalled carefully but really couldn't imagine the Church having such an existence.
"Father said the Church has recruited many believers recently; could it be through this method..."
On the other side.
After winning over the dead spirits, William began the second thing—Teaching.
Among these dead spirits, there were many characters who died miserably in the Wrong Turn series.
And the reason they lost their lives was precisely because of a lack of safety awareness.
The Mountain Men deep in the dense forest were powerful.
William didn't want the plan to go wrong because of the "Carelessness" of a certain dead spirit.
So he knocked on the ground.
"Although you died miserably, you have only yourselves to blame!"
"The Lord clearly gave you many opportunities to escape, but you wasted them in vain."
William's tone was serious.
"For example, once in a sanitarium, a man caught three hateful Mountain Men."
"But when he planned to burn these beasts to death, a woman came out to stop him, saying it was too cruel."
"And the result? The Mountain Men escaped, covered the man's face, and sent him to find his companions."
Speaking of this, William looked like he hated iron for not becoming steel.
"But when the woman saw the man, she thought the Mountain Men had escaped."
"She didn't hesitate at all and killed that man, eventually leading to the annihilation of the survivors."
"Isn't this extremely stupid!"
As soon as the voice fell, the dead spirits howled one after another, denouncing the woman's actions.
They even cross-checked each other, trying to find this guy who dragged everyone down.
These were not fabricated by William on the spot.
In the original series, he was very impressed by this plot segment.
He wished he could rush into the movie and slap the person at that time.
"I understand everyone's indignation, but saying this is not to target anyone, but because we must learn the lesson."
William raised his hand and pressed down.
"We must keep this in mind when encountering Mountain Men next."
"Unless I specifically request otherwise, do not give the opponent any chance to breathe. You must ensure they are dead!"
The dead spirits responded one after another.
After that, William named and criticized several negative examples before letting the dead spirits disperse.
Lea aside was so shocked that she was completely speechless.
"We just entered the depths of the dense forest, and we got a bunch of helpers?"
She was prepared for a tough battle.
But looking at it now, this trip seemed to be very easy.
Recalling her past exorcism experiences, which one didn't involve facing life and death crises several times?
Lea began to doubt herself—Was I too stupid before?
In short, the two continued to move in the direction where the Mountain Men took Jenny.
William brought the Mountain Man cub along again.
Since it couldn't threaten the dead spirits, this guy should be of some use when facing Mountain Men.
Mountain Men revere bloodlines so much.
This cub is so ugly; it must be extremely pure.
Thinking of this, the Mountain Man cub started crying again.
"It might... be hungry," Lea said from the side.
She had once babysat for a friend, so she had some experience, though she didn't know if it would work on a Mountain Man.
William nodded upon hearing this, then grabbed a handful of dirt and stuffed it into the cub's mouth.
"You..." Lea was stunned on the spot.
"This thing can even treat sewage as food; eating some dirt shouldn't kill it," William said confidently.
The corner of Lea's mouth twitched; she found that she indeed couldn't refute.
After stuffing the cub's mouth full, the two continued on their way.
Because of the guidance of the altar dead spirits along the way, they soon found a camp.
Calling it a camp, it was just some temporary tents built around a bonfire.
There were some Mountain Men moving inside.
Compared to the tall Mountain Man, the monsters here were much more normal in size.
However, their limbs were of different shapes; some even grew sharp bone spurs.
But similarly, these Mountain Men also had many pustules on their bodies, from which black mist spewed out from time to time.
There were also several female Mountain Men with bulging bellies; they should be pregnant.
Beside the fire, there were several normal humans. Judging from their clothes, they should be tourists hiking here.
But at this time, these people had become corpses.
Their organs and intestines were piled casually on wooden stakes.
And a calf was stuck upside down in one of the cooking pots.
William looked at the entire village and his eyes lit up quickly.
In the corner, on a wooden frame, lay a girl with short blonde hair, looking identical to Jenny.
However, Jenny's hands and feet were tied, and her eyes were blindfolded with a cloth.
At this moment, she was trembling all over, curling up her body.
From William's perspective, Jenny seemed to be placed separately, not among that group of "Meat."
"Any plan?" Lea lowered her voice.
After experiencing the altar incident just now, she decided to listen to this priest's idea first; maybe it could avoid many dangers.
William nodded secretly; I was waiting for you to ask!
He immediately handed the Mountain Man cub to Lea: "You attract their attention and stall for time; I'll go make some arrangements."
"Me... this." Lea was a little confused.
Seeing this, William reminded: "You've seen police and bandit movies, right?"
Lea thought for a moment and nodded.
"Later you rush out, hold this cub high, and for the threat, just imitate the movies." William seemed quite experienced in this.
"This... isn't appropriate, right?" Lea still couldn't let go of her dignity.
"If you want to confront that group of guys head-on, I have no objection." William shrugged.
Lea looked at the group of ferocious guys and finally nodded.
William soon disappeared into the dense forest.
Before long, Lea saw the priest appear at the edge of the camp.
The latter made a gesture, indicating she could start.
Phew.
Lea took a deep breath, then jumped onto a small hillside.
She held the Mountain Man cub high with her left hand and placed the cross long sword horizontally against its neck with her right hand.
"You... you bunch of guys, if... if you don't submit obediently, I will kill this chil... this little thing!"
Lea managed to finish this sentence with great difficulty.
On one hand, she felt a little ashamed inside.
On the other hand, when watching movies usually, her focus was on those cool fighting moves, and she replicated them in reality.
This gave Lea a feeling of being an "Expert."
Who creates memories of the villain's threats?!
If anything, I remember the heroes!
She racked her brains to piece together such a sentence.
"Great Holy Spirit, I am only doing this to eliminate those cannibals, not because I truly have evil intentions in my heart!"
Lea prayed inwardly after making the threat.
The Mountain Men below were indeed attracted.
Perhaps language was a barrier, but Lea's act of holding a sword against the cub clearly showed her attitude.
Especially when the group of Mountain Men saw that the cub was so ugly, which was proof of a very pure bloodline.
Therefore, they were even more furious.
Many Mountain Men immediately revealed their limb weapons and were about to rush to the hillside.
"Stop!"
Lea exerted a little more force with her hand, and a thin red line soon appeared on the cub's neck.
And the Mountain Men below indeed stopped in place, but the fierceness in their eyes became more intense.
"Why do I feel like I am the bad guy?"
Lea already regretted it a little inside and screamed silently.
"Hurry up and act, Mr. Priest!"
At this time, on the other side.
While the Mountain Men in the camp were all attracted by Lea, William quickly came to the wooden frame.
Jenny seemed to hear the movement, and her body began to tremble again.
"Don't... please, Mmph!!"
William immediately covered Jenny's mouth from behind to avoid the sound being heard by the Mountain Men.
But this made Jenny even more terrified, twisting her body vigorously.
Even William was a little surprised; Jenny didn't look strong, but he couldn't hold her down without spending some effort.
Just as he planned to explain the situation to her, the girl suddenly turned over and pressed William's hand under her body.
Warmth and softness soon came from his arm.
William raised an eyebrow; didn't expect this girl to be quite well-endowed.
However, this actually put him in a favorable position.
So William immediately lay close to Jenny's ear: "Don't move, I was entrusted by your father to save you."
Jenny's neck shrank; she seemed unaccustomed to someone speaking so close.
But hearing the familiar language and her father's name, the girl cheered up.
"O... okay."
Jenny's voice was very soft.
"I'll untie you now; you have to let me pull my hand out first," William whispered.
Only then did Jenny realize she was still pressing the other party with her chest.
"So... sorry!"
She turned sideways immediately, a blush spreading across her cheeks.
