Chapter 182: Final Judgment
As everyone knows, since the beginning of the birth of this world, the struggle between black and white, good and evil has begun, with the expansion of the scale of the war, both good and evil feel that they should strengthen their teams, so the demon king split out of his own body "Twelve Demon Gods", and the heavenly realm gave birth to the so-called "ancient gods", at that time, although the status of the god king in the heavenly realm was the highest, but it was far from reaching the point where it is now a monopoly, but with the end of the "starting point war", the demon power was suppressed, and everything began to change, The god-king became increasingly intolerant of sharing his rights with the gods, and the reason for the eventual sweep of the gods from heaven was actually human...
Because in the "Beginning War" human beings chose to stand on the side of the gods, so after the war, the gods gave mankind great favor, taught humans to farm, weave, and use various tools, in the long contact some gods, including Watthughes, gradually liked humans, hoping to teach humans more things, but this is against the will of the god king, in his opinion, too much wisdom will only disturb the hearts of human beings, and eventually shake their fear of the gods, this move is undoubtedly extremely dangerous, For this reason, the gods held many meetings, but unfortunately there was no result, at this time Vat Hughes was keenly aware that the god king wanted to suppress the rest of the gods and monopolize power, so it carried the god king behind his back, and quietly taught more knowledge to mankind, hoping to shake the rule of the god king, it can be said that human beings can stand out from the many creatures in the world, with enough power comparable to the gods and demons, Vat Hughes has made great contributions, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, Vat Hughes's little tricks were finally discovered by the god king, The latter was furious and drove Wadesius out of the heavenly realm, which also directly led to the division within the gods, and broke out a "civil war of the gods" that the Holy See tried to cover up, and the final result was naturally needless to say, the god king won the final victory and became the supreme existence in the Three Realms, and the defeated gods were either imprisoned, or exiled to the earth realm like Vat Hughes, even a few who stood on the side of the god king eventually encountered an overhead, and with the gradual increase of the Holy See's power in the earth realm, Consciously erased from the various legends, not many humans now know about this history, except for a few wild lands and "heretics" like Guillaume.
And the Vatesius who was driven out of the heavenly realm can only wander around the earth like a lonely ghost, and has previously confessed that only gods and demon kings can produce magic power on their own in this world, and other gods and demons must use all living beings if they want to gain power, the main source of which is human beings, the practice of demons has always been relatively simple and rough - directly devouring human souls, and the practices of the gods are more gentle, relying on human sacrifices and faith, but with the Holy See prohibiting all kinds of sacrifices other than gods, and the great effort to erase the existence of the gods, resulting in the exiled gods, including Watthughes, living in space and their mana becoming weaker and weaker, which is why the "god of wisdom" can only live in such a dilapidated old temple now.
"I see, no wonder those believers of yours before refused to tell who their master was..."After listening to Waldehughes's narration, all the mysteries that had plagued me before seemed to be solved, but at the same time, it had to make me feel more emotional.
"If I let the Heavenly Realm know that I am still alive and have made contact with you, the Demon King, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Then why did you bring me here, it's not as simple as reminiscing, right?"
"Of course, old friend, how about we work together again?"
"Cooperation?" I was surprised.
"That's right, now that you have woken up, the Heavenly Realm will take action sooner or later, and the second battle of gods and demons is inevitable, so instead of sitting and waiting, it is better for the two of us to join forces to fight against the Heavenly Realm, and there may be a glimmer of life."
"So the dignified "God of Wisdom" is now cooperating with his former enemies in order to save his life?" I couldn't help but sneer.
"There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests...", in the face of my taunt, Vat Hughes took it in stride.
"That's not like what a god should say."
"Oh, what should the gods say?"
"At the very least, it should lead people to goodness."
"There is no absolute between good and evil in this world..."
"Maybe, but with you, even if I join forces with my current strength, I'm afraid it won't help, right?"
"Of course, the situation is indeed a bit grim, which is why I am in such a hurry to find you everywhere, but thanks to the Juggernaut, now that the two of us have finally met, as long as we find ways to expand our strength, it will still be enough to fight with Heavenly Court."
"What do you want to do?"
"The first step, of course, is to collect the remaining Demon King's souls."
"Do you know where those Horcruxes are?"
"Of course, my dear friend, you don't think I've done anything these days, do you?"
"Tell me whereabouts?" I can't help but be a little excited to hear this.
"Don't worry, my friend, actually those Horcruxes..."Before Watt Hughes could finish speaking, we both felt an immensely powerful energy response almost at the same time, and we were both familiar with this energy.
"It's an angel!?" I couldn't help but exclaim.
"These guys still have such a smart nose...", although Watthughes's tone was full of mockery, but his voice trembled uncontrollably, and he could feel the complicated emotions in his heart about the angels. Almost at the same time the ground began to tremble under our feet, and there was a melodious singing outside, which were all precursors of the angel's coming, and I hurried out of the room without caring about Watthughes.
Obviously it should be late at night, but at this moment it is as bright as day outside, Anton La and the others are all looking up at the sky, their faces are full of fear, this is not to blame them for being rare and strange, it is really because the picture at that time was too shocking, hundreds of angels floating in the air, they have wings as white as snow, wearing gorgeous armor, helmets cover their beautiful faces, but they also reveal a bit of mighty and murderous atmosphere, this picture is like the "doomsday picture" depicted by countless artists, However, there is no mortal work that can bring such a shock, at that moment, even if I have been hovering on the line of life and death many times, I feel a sense of fear in my heart.
"O sinful soul, prepare for the final judgment." Suddenly, a light and beautiful female voice began to echo in the sky, I swore it was the cleanest voice I had ever heard, like a clear spring in the mountains, refreshing my heart, but at the same time its tone revealed a majesty that surpassed any king in the world, and that sense of oppression made people feel as if they unconsciously wanted to surrender to its feet, and I had heard this voice more than once in the memory of the demon king.
"Judgment Angel Flame...."I muttered to myself, as everyone knows, since the end of the age of the gods, God has relied on seventy-two archangels to carry out its rule over the Three Realms, these archangels have a clear division of labor, each with its own thoughts, among which Angel Flame is responsible for the final judgment of those souls who have turned their backs on the right path, of course, I personally think it is more appropriate to call it execution, I don't know how many sinful souls are scattered under its flaming sword, so she is also the most feared angel of all the demonic heretics in the world, I have seen her many times in the memory of the Demon King, although she has a peerless appearance, but she is as brave as a lion on the battlefield, but I never thought that I would face her alive one day...
