Chapter 1605: There should be awareness, death reminder

Faced with the gains of Ancient One, Peter really felt like he had nothing to say.

I just found someone very casually and asked, and I could actually dig out the clues. Isn’t this the clues they were looking for when a priest who retired from St. Michael’s Church?

However, even though he said so, Peter still had quite doubts about Gu Yi's attitude towards play. He still didn't want to believe that such a result was obtained through the tarot divination that was not rigorous. In contrast, he was more willing to believe that Gu Yi used some other means to make things what he saw now.

Fake, everything is fake, it's just a trick. Peter was still muttering like this in his heart, but Gu Yi was already greeting him.

"Don't stand there, Mr. Parker. We should visit him as soon as possible while the priest has not yet rested!"

This sentence reminded Peter, making him realize his current top priority, rather than wasting the world on such trivial matters. This made him unable to help but pat his face, cheer up again, and then hurriedly caught up with Gu Yi.

Soon, the two of them came to the library and found the librarian they were looking for, named Dennister.

The ex-priest who was holding a book obviously did not expect that someone would come to his library at this time point, which made him quickly put down the book in his hand and push the glasses on his nose. While watching the two uninvited guests, he warned them.

"The library is closed. If you are here to borrow or return books, please come here during normal working hours. If you are here to make a fortune, then I'm sorry, there is nothing but books here. You are here in the wrong place!"

"We didn't come for these things. We came for you, Dennister."

With a snap of his fingers in front of the former priest, Peter could clearly see that the former priest's eyes began to fade. Obviously, Gu Yi had used some hypnosis-like means to him, just like the one who had dealt with the security guard before. He no longer had hostility to them, but also began to speak out to them.

Peter did not feel that there was anything wrong with this method. Because they did not use this method to seek money and kill life, but used this method to solve the world crisis. With such righteousness, they can be morally strongly established. As for issues such as violations of human rights and privacy, unfortunately, this is not within their thinking scope.

Peter believes that he can't do the same as Batman in the movie. When facing a global crisis, he can still think of human rights and privacy. Even Batman, when fighting against the Joker, did he use his urban sonar system that would greatly violate the privacy rights of Gotham citizens?

If you want to be a hero, you will never be able to achieve the best of both worlds. If you want to save the future of countless people so that they will not fall into hell, you must not care about the gains and losses of one or two individuals. Sacrifice the ego to achieve the greater self, which is not just the hero itself. Many times, for some heroes, this principle applies to others.

Perhaps in the past, Peter, who had naive ideas, would not have such ideas. But now, he has obviously changed his ideas and has begun to learn to become realistic.

After all, this cruel world does not exist in fairy tales, and fairy tales are not what he pursues. What he pursues is justice, and it is just justice. For the sake of a just cause, he even has the awareness of sacrificing his own life. In comparison, the little secret of an ordinary person is of course a trivial thing.

In short, Peter allowed Gu Yi to do this. Gu Yi quickly asked his ex-priest who was confused by his mind.

"St. Michael's Church, it is said that you were in charge of donations in the past, so I want to ask you, do you know about the matter between this church and the Ghost Rider?"

"That's just a legend, something I only heard when I was young. When I was a child, Houston had a story about hunting evil spirit knights in the dark at night, inspired by the Lord and converted to St. Michael's Church. The old church was nearby, with the cemetery under the name of the church. It was famous, and no matter how powerful the gangsters were, they dared not set foot here casually at night. They were afraid of the evil spirit knights than the police. In fact, I did see the legendary spirit knight when I was young."

"He was burning with flames, riding a horse with only skeletons left, whizzing in the darkness. It was because of him that I believed in God's existence and determined to become God's servant. But I really didn't expect that this world would become like this in the end. The God I believe in never caring about human life or death, and he was not as concerned about us as those heretic gods. He was a liar, the liar who had deceived me for my whole life."

Speaking of this, the former priest couldn't help but curse the gods he had served. This is actually the flaw of this simple means of confusion.

It can indeed make people know everything, but it is precisely because of this that it is difficult for it to control the degree of speaking. Just like now, the priest has indeed said everything he knows, but how much of it is nonsense can tell anyone who is discerning.

Of course, this is not the first time Gu Yi has encountered such a thing. She has long been used to dealing with similar problems, so she quickly analyzed the useful parts from these problems. This made her interrupt the priest's constant yelling and questioning again at the same time.

"You said the old church is nearby, are you referring to the train museum next to it?"

"Yes, it was indeed a church there fifty years ago. But the town hall said it would move the church and the cemetery, so it became a train museum. The new church was two blocks away, and I worked there for nearly forty years. As for the cemetery, it was really hard to stay in the city. The people in the town hall moved it to the outskirts. These damn government bureaucrats colluded and pushed the price too low. Even the newly built church cut corners, otherwise it would not have been possible that the place would be sold for such a little money."

The former priest was still swearing, but Gu Yi no longer wanted to continue listening. She just snapped her fingers, interrupted the old priest's words, and then said to him in a low voice.

"Go back and have a sleep, Dennister. You've been busy for too long and are almost hallucinating when you're tired. As for your dissatisfaction with the City Hall, I think you can go to the parade and demonstration to express your opinions. You complain to others, but don't take any action. This behavior is so bad!"

After sending the former priest away with one sentence, Gu Yi took Peter directly away from here. Until this time, Peter was still confused.

"Have you figured out where the person we were looking for? Why do I still feel like I didn't find anything?"

"I've got a little clue, Mr. Parker. Come on, let's continue to draw cards! Tell me about your question, maybe we'll know the answer soon, right?"

"What a hell." Peter sighed deeply at the tarot cards lined up in front of him, and then he said his own question with an attitude of not believing in his belief that he was not trusting. "Okay, where should we find that guy?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the new tarot card automatically turned up. The card showed the god of death riding a white horse, which meant death and rebirth. Looking at this card, Gu Yi waved his sleeves and said to Peter.

"I think we have a goal. Let's go, Mr. Parker. Let's go to the cemetery in this city. I think there, we can find the answers we need."

"I hope." He had already begun to get used to the nagging style of Ancient One's master, and he had no choice but to follow her footsteps. And under the footsteps of the two of them, they soon arrived at the cemetery of this city.

Just like all the cemeteries in other places in the world, this is not a place for ordinary people to play and visit. Especially at night, it is naturally more quiet and empty. The tombstones are erected there, which is enough for everyone who walks into it to smell the smell of death. When facing such a place, even a guy like Peter will inevitably feel uncomfortable.

‘Are you sure we can find the answer here? I mean, are you sure the guy we are looking for is not in the coffin under a certain tombstone?’

"Of course, I'm pretty sure. Don't forget that the Death Card represents not only ending, but also rebirth. Besides, a mere two hundred years of time, unless something special happens, is not enough to end a Ghost Rider."

The reason given by Gu Yi was very sufficient, so even Peter could only temporarily suppress his disbelief and asked her like this.

"Well, since you said that, then where should we find it? Do we need to ask one by one from these dead people? To be honest, although I have the power of Zatanos, I can't do this for the time being when I let the dead people speak."
