Chapter 891 - 492: The Current Situation of Old Friends in Greece

Xue Dili had once visited the church, not referring to himself, but the Xue Dili from the parallel world, the double doctorate from Boston, who experimented thousands of times to research bacteriophages that could counteract the Divine Tree, that Doctor Xue Dili.

However, at that time, he was in America. In order to obtain experimental materials, Doctor Xue had to contact a group of professional corpse collectors to acquire experimental materials, which also allowed him to obtain data on Divine Tree ashes infection.

Yes, America had a specialized profession called "corpse collectors," and they were not considered a lowly profession but rather a particularly respectable and prestigious one. Typically, only church priests or professionals from medical universities could join this line of work.

Xue Dili often interacted with the priests who brought him corpses, and sometimes what they brought weren’t even corpses but elderly people who had only a breath left.

Doctor Xue, who once held normal values, also asked why they didn’t save them.

The priest said, "They sold themselves to the church."

Once, when the experimental materials weren’t delivered on time, Doctor Xue personally went to the church to ask what was happening. At that time, he saw a single mother, holding a child, in an environment in Boston with a similar latitude to the northeast, and the child’s cries came from her chest.

She seemed dazed, looking half-confused and half-awake, asking the priest, "Please, Father, give us something to eat..."

The priest said, "No, please wait for the Lord’s miracle, or you can find a place to sell yourself..."

The next day, Doctor Xue received the experimental material, which was that single mother, and the priest had successfully delivered the material.

That child became part of his teaching material. A very dignified person said, "This concerns your funding. Give him some other illness to find a solution for this complication for the wealthy."

These things Youtiao had never experienced because Doctor Xue bore all these things in his heart. Even if it was experimental material, Youtiao would only feel unwillingness.

Even at this time, Doctor Xue hoped that the priest was just like the stereotype from his hometown. If he was just a pervert who liked young boys, then how kind could this priest really be?

These matters were actually just insignificant experiences for Doctor Xue, but after gradually accepting these memories, Xue Dili felt very uncomfortable.

Because no matter how hard Doctor Xue tried, he could access mysticism, the Cursed Blood left by Xue Dili, and even find the bacteriophages needed to counter the Divine Tree and resolve it.

But he could never save these people.

Because they didn’t die from any harm but poverty.

At the same time, he understood why the healthcare level in his hometown would never catch up to America’s, because in his hometown, he couldn’t have so much experimental material, and even if he wanted to experiment to find microbes that could counter the Divine Tree, he had to use these materials.

That’s the reason why Doctor Xue wanted to enter the mystical forces.

But before that, Old Xue had already crossed over and solved the Divine Tree, even though this resulted in hundreds of millions of people becoming completely twisted fungal mats by the Divine Tree, but in Doctor Xue’s view, he saved more of the lower-class people.

And these matters always remained deep in Doctor Xue’s memory, and only after Xue Dili slowly reminisced did he realize something was off.

"Father, the child is hungry, please grant me some food..." a woman’s voice came.

This seemed to activate the memory of Doctor Xue left in Xue Dili’s mind, and Xue Dili immediately turned around to look. It seemed to be a single mother, the child sleeping on her chest, while she looked pale and emaciated, as if always in a state of malnutrition.

This scene made Xue Dili stop in his tracks, and he looked toward the holy professional, an unfamiliar middle-aged priest.

"I’m sorry..." the middle-aged priest sighed.

Just when Xue Dili thought he might see this scene again, the middle-aged priest took out a "Holy Scripture," as if painfully, tore off two pages, and chanted...

"Bread Technique!"

At this moment, even Xue Dili was stunned.

The next moment, in front of the pale and emaciated woman, the torn two pages of the "Holy Scripture" turned into a bread-like flatbread. He also showed a forced smile and said, "I’m sorry, I only have so little. If you could bring me some straw or paper, I could create more bread..."

The priest sighed and had no choice but to hand the flatbread, which seemed as thin as a sheet of paper, to the single mother.

Xue Dili was silent and asked the nun beside him, "Is your place really short of food, and even lacks trees and straw?"

The nun seemed silent too and then said, "Indeed, we are very short. As you know, the undead naturally pollute the land and wither the trees. Only lands purified by the Holy Light can grow plants..."

Xue Dili could only respond in silence, then asked, "Bread Technique, when did you learn this technique?"

"About half a year ago. Ever since the new Pope received a divine response during prayers and was granted this technique called the ’Bread Technique.’ Although it requires cost and consumption to convert sweet grass and twigs into bread, it has helped us in emergencies. As long as we endure for another half-year, the newly cultivated land will be able to grow food, and life will get better day by day," the nun said.
