Father Iller:
'
""
He suddenly didn't want to talk anymore.
It's so good to be young!
No, this is no longer a matter of "being young," it's a matter of "being perverted."
He put on a stern face, trying to salvage some of the senior's dignity.
"Take your things and come with me. I'll take you to your lodgings."
"OK."
Chen Yuan found his suitcase, picked it up, and followed Father Iller out.
As he reached the door, he suddenly asked a question.
"By the way, Father, who is this Mrs. William?"
Father Iller paused.
He had his back to Chen Yuan, paused for two seconds, and then continued walking forward.
Why are you suddenly asking that?
"Oh, it's nothing."
"7
Chen Yuan took out the business card and held it up to his eyes to look at it.
"That Mrs. William gave it to me just now."
"It has my name, phone number, and address, and it even invites me to her house tomorrow morning."
He sighed.
"The people here are so welcoming; they invited me to their home as soon as we met."
Father Iller felt a tremor in his heart.
He suddenly stopped and turned around.
"You can't go!"
His voice was a bit loud, echoing in the empty church.
Chen Yuan was startled and took a half step back.
"Why can't I go?"
He looked down at the business card in his hand.
"What's wrong with Mrs. William? Is there a problem?"
"Nothing much."
Father Iller realized he had lost his composure, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his tone.
In short, you just can't go.
After saying that, he turned around and continued walking forward.
Mrs. William was the lady who had just asked him for his contact information.
Her husband is a senior executive at a large company and is often away from home, rarely returning.
Father Iller had lived in this neighborhood for decades, and he could tell at a glance what kind of people were thinking.
He saw clearly the look in Mrs. William's eyes when she looked at Chen Yuan.
That's the look in the eyes of a hungry person when they see food.
That's the look in a cat's eyes when it sees a fish.
That is...
In short, you absolutely cannot go!
But he couldn't say it outright.
What do you mean by that?
Saying "That woman wants to sleep with you"?
How could an old priest like him say such a thing?
So he could only stop him.
"Fine, I won't go then."
Chen Yuan's voice came from behind, but his emotions were unreadable.
Father Iller breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking.
Not long after, Father Iller stopped in front of a wooden door.
He took out a bunch of keys from his waist, found one of them, inserted it into the lock, turned it twice, and the door opened.
"This is your dorm room."
He pushed open the door and pointed inside.
The room is small, about ten square meters.
A single bed was placed against the wall, covered with clean sheets.
A desk, a chair, and a wardrobe.
The window was open, the wind blew in, and the curtains swayed gently.
"The kitchen is next door."
Father Iller then pointed to the next room.
"You can make whatever you need yourself. There's a refrigerator in the church, and food will be delivered every week."
He gave a brief introduction and glanced at Chen Yuan.
"Pack your things first. You can come find me if you need anything."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Chen Yuan carried his suitcase into the room and threw it onto the bed.
tidy?
He looked at the suitcase; it contained only a few changes of clothes, a crucifix, and a Bible.
What's there to tidy up?
He took the clothes out, folded them, and put them in the wardrobe.
The cross was hung above the bed, and the Bible was thrown on the desk.
Done.
He sat down on the edge of the bed, his gaze fixed on the empty space, and opened the system template.
Chen Yuan's gaze fell on the [Item Card: Skill Synthesis Scroll] in the system warehouse.
There were originally two of these, but after one was used, the remaining one has remained unused.
Last time, in the world of Return of the Soul, the protective true energy of the Nine Yang Divine Skill damaged that ghostly thing, Li Sheng.
What does this tell us?
Does this suggest that the power of Qi, an Eastern system, might also be effective against ghosts and monsters in the Western world?
If we combine these skills, will we get something even more awesome?
Chen Yuan thought for a moment, then a thought struck him.
[Use Item Card/Skill Synthesis Scroll?]
Yes.
The light screen flashed, the scroll disappeared, and in its place was a blank frame.
Please select the skills you wish to combine (you can drag and drop multiple skills to combine)
Without saying a word, Chen Yuan dragged the Nine Yang Divine Skill inside.
An icon for the Nine Yang Divine Skill appeared in the box.
Two empty boxes immediately appeared next to it.
Chen Yuan dragged the Nine Yin Manual inside.
Then drag the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth into it.
Three boxes, that's all.
He took a deep breath, and his mind stirred once more.
【synthesis!】
On the light screen, three icons began to rotate.
It spun faster and faster, until it finally merged into a ball of golden light.
Chen Yuan's eyes widened in disbelief.
gold?!
Has the money been withdrawn?!
It wasn't this flashy last time!
He stared intently at the ball of light.
As the light faded, a new icon emerged.
[Skill: Psionic Power (Depending on the world, Psionic Power will automatically switch to the power system applicable to that world. The current world's applicable power is: Magic Power. It can enchant ordinary items to achieve the effect of damaging monsters.)]
Chen Yuan stared at those lines of text, completely stunned.
Holy crap?
He blinked.
Holy crap?!
This really is gold!
∑（OAO|II）
This, this, this...
He stared at the golden icon for a full five seconds.
What I wish for comes true, what luck...
Will this shorten my lifespan?
"Tap—tap"
The knock on the door was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to interrupt Chen Yuan's thoughts.
He closed the system panel and cleared his throat.
"Enter."
The door was pushed open, and Father Iller appeared in the doorway.
He had changed out of the white vestments he wore for Mass and was now dressed in a simple black robe, with a speck of dust on his cuffs, probably from where he had been working.
The old priest stood at the doorway, his eyes scanning the room.
The room was small, and Chen Yuan's luggage was pitifully simple.
A few clothes were neatly folded and placed in the closet, a cross hung above the bed, and the Bible sat on the desk. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
This is indeed in line with the standards of a priest.
"Is everything packed up?"
Father Iller's gaze swept around the room before finally settling on Chen Yuan.
"Now come with me to do our daily chores."
"They're here."
Chen Yuan stood up and followed Father Iller out of the dormitory.
Outside the dormitory is a small courtyard, not big, but very tidy.
The path paved with bluestone slabs is winding, with some flowers and plants whose names I don't know planted on both sides.
The courtyard wall is an old stone wall, covered with green vines, which gleam warmly in the setting sun.
Father Iller stopped, raised his hand, and pointed to the ground.
"These leaves need to be swept up every day."
Chen Yuan looked down and saw a few withered leaves scattered on the ground; to be honest, not many.
But he didn't say anything, he just nodded.
Father Iller took a few more steps forward and stopped next to a stone wall.
Vines climbed the wall, and colorful flowers bloomed among them—red, yellow, and purple—crowding together in a lively display.
