Chapter 186 Night God Followers
Two nights later, Zhou Yi met Wei Wu.

It was wearing a white doctor's coat on the outside, a black long-sleeved shirt underneath, carrying a small suitcase in its hands, and wearing a sun hat on its head.

What is special is that unlike other skeletons, its bones are not yellow or dark in color. Its entire body seems to be painted with white paint, and it is white and clean.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, hello, Dr. Da Vinci."

The skeleton bowed politely.

"Please take a seat."

Zhou Yi sat on the sofa and said, "Doctor Wei specializes in treating bone-people diseases. He came to us because he thought that bone fish and bone-people have something in common?"

"Yes."

The other person sat on the chair with a straight posture: "My research direction is bone reconstruction and transplantation of bone man. However, it is very difficult to advance in this direction because there are not enough cases and targeted medical equipment, and the operation itself has a high risk."

"None of the electromechanical doctors who lead medicine is engaged in this field, and there is a lack of in-depth research on theories and cases. I want to try some surgeries, but I can't get help or recognition from electromechanical doctors."

"Seeing that Dr. Da Vinci was actually engaged in bone fish treatment and pathology research, I thought this would be the best learning opportunity for me, so I boldly came all the way to apply for the job."

Zhou Yi nodded: "There is no problem in this regard. Doctor Wei is a member of the Church of Night?"

"Yes."

Wei Wu confessed: "I am a member of the Church of Night."

"Why did you join this organization?"

Doctor Boneman seemed to have sorted out his thoughts. "I was the first to apply to join the Guangyin School. They have the greatest influence and the most resources. If I can become a member, I will get a lot of funding and opportunities. It is not impossible to go to the Holy Mountain to study medicine."

"But my application was rejected due to lack of references."

"Later, I applied to join the Guangfu Society. They are slightly weaker than the Guangyin School, but they are still one of the largest academic organizations. Unfortunately, I failed the review because my research on bone people was considered worthless."

"Finally, I applied to the Church of Darkness again with the attitude of giving it a try."

Wei Wu scratched his head. "Although the church is not recognized by the cities and is prohibited from publicity and public activities, the Church of the Night also has supporters and a certain amount of funding. Compared with the previous two organizations, the church's initiation ceremony is very simple. As long as you complete the written test and reach the passing score, you can join."

"I prepared for the exam for two years and was finally admitted to the Church of Night."

Zhou Yi's eyes became increasingly confused as he listened.

Wait.

Why is this Church of Darkness different from what I imagined?

"You said that the Church of Darkness requires an exam to join?"

"Yes."

Wei Wu nodded: "The exam consists of two subjects, one public exam and one professional exam. You can choose the field you want to pursue, but everyone must take the public exam."

"The entrance exam to the Church of Darkness has become increasingly difficult in recent years. I joined six years ago, and it was not that difficult at the time, so I was lucky enough to get in. Now everyone is aware of the church's advantages, so the competition has become fierce."

Zhou Yi smelled a familiar scent.

This does seem like something a human would come up with.

Zhou Yi asked it again: "What do you do in the church?"

"Actually, there is nothing specific to do. I am a doctor and will be notified by the church to treat some church members or participate in some medical research. However, because my professional direction is relatively narrow, so far, apart from treating a few skeletons in the church, I basically have nothing to do."

Wei Wu smiled and said: "Although the funding is getting less and less now, it is difficult to apply for it. But when I first joined, I still applied for more funding than I thought, and did a lot of related medical experiments. Although they all failed, I also gained valuable experience and data."

"..."

Zhou Yi found it difficult to evaluate this church.

He asked Hong Xun again through the synchronization of consciousness.

"What it said is basically true," the drone said.

"The Church of Night expanded rapidly and on a large scale in the early days, recruiting many members and obtaining an A rating from the Mechanical and Electrical City four years ago. However, after obtaining the rating, they tightened the threshold for new members, began to control their scale, and cut funding to reduce unnecessary expenses."

Class A.

Zhou Yi's eyes became serious.

This means benchmarking and pioneering.

The most recent one to be rated A was United City, which pioneered the alien city.

Mechanical and electrical cities have very high requirements and procedures are strictly controlled, so it is difficult to find loopholes under the strict rating system.

Zhou Yi didn't believe that the Church of Darkness could become A-level simply by relying on the number of people.

"The Night God mentioned by the Church of Night is not a fictional figure, but a special life form that actually exists."

Hong Xun said: "The specific information is unknown. But the Night God will appear at night and give enlightenment to the believers. It is just that it cannot be observed by the outside world. This has been confirmed through various channels."

"In essence, the church is not worshipping the Night God, but cultivating and shaping it into a deity, gathering a large number of believers around the Night God, and then using the power of the group to further promote the growth of the Night God's power."

"For the Kingdom of Heaven and the lords of the various seas, this kind of deification would threaten their dominance, so it is prohibited everywhere."

"The Mechanical and Electrical City imposed restrictions on the church because the Church of Night refused to disclose information about the Night God, resulting in uncontrollable risks."

The Night God is a created god.

Zhou Yi wondered in his heart, could it also be a conceptual life form?
He looked at Wei Wu: "Have you received the revelation from the Night God?"

"Had."

Doctor Skeleton nodded: "As long as you are a member of the church, you can worship the Night God at night. But only we can sense the Night God, non-members of the church cannot observe its existence."

"Night God is easy to talk to. He is a very gentle god. Sometimes he will give some enlightenment, but it doesn't matter if you don't listen. Night God is more like a friend who is always by your side and sometimes cares about you..."

Zhou Yi thought to himself.

I don’t know if my [radio] can observe it.

Zhou Yi said: "You can try to worship now, so that our company can make an assessment to see if this will affect the operation order here."

He was ready to see what was going on.

……

The Bone Doctor opened his suitcase, took out several wedge-shaped pieces of wood, and assembled them into a small stand. On it was fixed a polished bronze mirror and two diamond-shaped stones were fixed beside it.

Then it sat cross-legged in front of the mirror, chanting, "Night God, Night God, call my mind."

Zhou Yi waited for a long time.

Then he realized, it was gone.

The ritual of the Church of Night is just this one sentence.

Wei Wu stared at the mirror intently, and the bronze mirror reflected the pale skull of the skeleton.

Zhou Yi turned on the radio, channel 5 at the highest level. He immediately heard a light voice.

"Since they want to see it, let them see it. We don't have anything that we cannot tell others."

Zhou Yi noticed that there was a huge moon floating above the mirror in front of the Bone Doctor.

It seemed to have landed here from the sky, its entire body was icy white, and the craters on it could be clearly seen. However, its size was so large that it still gave off a chilly and oppressive feeling at a close distance.

The sound comes from this moon.

Zhou Yi looked up again.

He found that the moon in the night sky had disappeared.

What's happening here?
Night God is the moon?
Zhou Yi's mind was a little confused.

He summoned Unit 2 Suneo and asked it to help stroke it.

"It is the life consciousness that evolved from the concept of the moon."

The upstreamer made a judgment immediately: "The strength of a conceptual life of this size is really amazing."

"Normally, lower life forms like Skeletons would collapse instantly or have their self-consciousness completely assimilated if they were touched by its consciousness, but it looks very normal. This kind of restraint and control over energy and consciousness seems to be at the level of a light core body... It's a high-level life form native to this place."

A genuine photonuclear body.

Zhou Yi was a little surprised that there really was a great god in this Church of Darkness.

"Da Zhou, try connecting with it."

Xiaofu added: "Conceptual life forms that actively come into contact with ordinary life consciousness have generally evolved to a very high level. They are objects that can communicate and can accurately restrain and control their own power. They are different from the primary stage like Mai Ba."

"Higher life forms can recognize each other and have mutual respect and cooperation needs. You have this invincible body, so it won't be dangerous to deal with conceptual life forms."

Zhou Yi hesitated for a moment and decided to give it a try.

He took two steps forward, raised his hand, and touched the bright moon that was so close.

Cool to the touch.

Energy is input and consciousness is activated at the same frequency.

"Ok?"

The other party spoke first: "Can you see me? You are not an ordinary life... Among the higher life forms, I have never seen a type like you."

"Hello Stranger."

"Hello."

Zhou Yi also greeted the other party: "My name is Zhou Yi, should I call you Night God or Moon God?"

The other party let out a laugh that was almost indistinguishable from that of a human.

"In the eyes of different lives, I have different images and titles. In the church, my name is Night God. A name is a way of identification and labeling, so just use this one."

Zhou Yi was curious: "Different appearances...does that mean you can change?"

"Of course, if it's not a suitable form, it won't be conducive to consciousness communication, but generally speaking I will keep the original moon shape so that everyone can accept it. But if it's a higher life form like you, I can also tend to the form you like."

Zhou Yi immediately perked up: "In other words, you will transform according to my preferences?"

"can."

"As long as you imagine it in your heart, I will be what you imagine." said Ye Shen.

Zhou Yi searched for images related to the moon in his mind.

Then in the next second, the huge full moon was suddenly pulled and turned into a beautiful girl in JK combat uniform, and she blinked.

“This look is really peculiar.”

Not Sailor Moon.

The scene in Zhou Yi's mind changed.

Then the beautiful girl turned into a woman in ancient costume with a cone-shaped bun, powdered face and a long white dress with wide sleeves and fluttering sleeves.

Chang'e?

Zhou Yi thought about it and felt that this image was relatively approachable. Looking at it could remind him of the era when he lived in the past.

It’s you.

The form of Night Goddess Chang'e!
"So you like this look? It's a very ancient form..." Ye Shen also looked at himself.

The Night God in the form of Chang'e has become much more pleasing to the eye.

Zhou Yi thought.

This image is still very important. If the appearance is not good, it is indeed difficult to attract believers. In this respect, God is the same as an idol.

Ye Shen has a unique and accurate understanding of this point.

No wonder the huge Church of Night was created.

Zhou Yi suddenly noticed that the skeleton doctor next to him had his jaw stretched out, his body stiff, and he raised his trembling fingers.

"you you……"

"I was the first one to come here...how did it become you...Ya Shen actually...actually is like this..."

"Why did Ye Shen become like this for you..."

Wei Wu, who witnessed everything, seemed to be greatly shocked.

"Forgot it was still there."

Ye Shen said: "We have a distinguished guest visiting us. You should stay here for now and we will talk next time."

She waved lightly.

Then Wei Wu's head tilted and he fainted.

"Let's continue." said Ye Shen.

She seemed to adapt to this body image, and her facial expression, which was initially stiff, gradually became soft and almost human.

"Let's talk business now."

Ye Shen said seriously: "My Moon World is facing a disaster. Are you willing to help me?"

Zhou Yi had a blank expression on his face, but he was extremely panicked inside.

Let me help you?
I am?
