Chapter 6 Stand-ins
Dismask, there is a place on the side hill of the first house of the Sanctuary - Aries Palace, where an ancient bell is enshrined.
Now that Mu and Arudiba are guarding their palaces, you are the only ones who have time to complete this task.
While the Immortal Army has not yet broken through our preset defenses, you will need to find the bell and ring it during this time.
"At this time, you have to risk me to find a broken bell, that old guy can't be really confused, right?"
Dismask ran between the mountain roads and soon arrived at the perimeter of the Aries Palace, the silent palace exuding a powerful deterrent from the usual outward.
It seemed that Mu was ready for the battle, and Dees was a little relieved, so he jumped onto a large rock and looked around.
There wasn't much vegetation in the zodiac, so he could see it more clearly, and if the place Tong Hu said really existed, then it should be nearby......
"Huh?!"
Dismask's eyes lit up, and a little isolated light not far away was shining on a small hill,
"Found ......"
Sanctuary, a semi-circular wall of light enveloping the Zodiac and its surrounding areas.
At this moment, the defense that could hold out for a while gradually weakened due to the sudden change of the temple, and soon one after another black small universe clinged to the wall of light, eroding a little gap.
It didn't take long for the light wall to become full of holes and almost shattered.
And in front of the largest breach in the defenses, a man sat by the campfire, quietly waiting for something.
A heavy, dull bell rang in the distance, finally causing him to move.
"Don't you think it's too late to know the warning now?"
With his words, one black shadow after another slowly gathered around him.
It's enough to have these people, as long as you take Athena's head, the world is in the hands of Lord Hades!
"Shhh
The black wolf stood in front of him, destroying his extreme excitement and excitement,
"Ferekias, are you standing there, ready to take my credit?!"
In response to the dragon's questioning, Ferekias lowered his head and said.
"Of course not, Lord Radamandis, I am only here to convey God's instructions."
"Oh?"
"God Himself has said that you will not be allowed to go forward for ten days from now."
"What did you say?!"
The dragon's vertical pupils locked firmly on Ferekias, almost tempting to tear him apart one piece after another.
"Do you know what it costs to stop me in the name of God, Jackal of the Sin Star?!"
Ferekias was intimidated by the other party's ferocious aura, but he only took a step back as if he was weak, and said calmly,
"Lord Radamandis, I Ferekias don't have the guts to do such a thing, and if you have any grievances, you can kill me, but God's instructions ...... You probably know better than I do what the penalties will be. โ
Radamandis's movements faltered, but the invading universe still forced the jackal into a cold sweat, and it wasn't until a long time later that he snorted coldly and fell silent again.
Ten days, okay, I'll wait another ten days...... Then wash away this shame with your own hands!
"It seems that the activities of the Immortal Army have stopped."
Mu watched from afar as the restless demon stars returned to silence, and said to Arudiba beside him,
"Let's go, let's go to Libra Palace."
"Is that good?" Arudiba said worriedly, "The Hades army will attack at any time, right?" โ
"No, they can't come up, the barrier has begun to recover."
Mu said lightly, but it was not so much the restoration of the old enchantment, but the formation of a new enchantment.
What the hell is going on?
"Teacher, you're finally here."
In Libra Palace, Aiolos couldn't help but step forward and ask when he saw Saga and Tong Hu coming,
"How's His Highness the Pope?"
"He needs to rest now." Saga replied simply, "The teacher has already seen it roughly, and it will take at least three days to wake up"
"Damn, Hades actually took advantage of this gap to attack!" Aioria slammed his fist into the pillar, smashing a gap,
"No matter how much you call the Pope, he won't wake up." Leaning against the wall, Mirรณ said, "The question now is, who attacked the Pope and what are we going to do next?" โ
"Being able to interfere with the enchantment of the Sanctuary so easily, and inflict harm on the Pope without us noticing, the identity of the other party is obvious, isn't it?"
At the entrance of the Libra Palace, Mu walked over with Arudiba, "I just don't know which god it is." โ
"That little universe can't be Hades." Sha Jia's voice came slowly, "In addition, if the other party's power is fully used, it should not be difficult to kill the Pope, but in the end, it only caused this level of injury, I think it is probably a silhouette of God." โ
"Will you attack it again next time?" Shura asked,
"No, it won't." , Tong Hu walked over with a cane. "Even among the twelve gods, few can use their divine powers wantonly in Athena's temple, but the other party has clearly done this.
Although I don't want to admit it, I am afraid that his or her identity is really not far from Hades. โ
"Could it be ......," Mu Shen muttered, "Is the Heavenly Realm ready to start interfering in the Holy War?" โ
"No, that wouldn't be the case if God intervened." Tong Hu said lightly, "The reason for this situation is that my old friend has done something outside the rules. โ
"What did the Pope do?"
Saga asked, frowning.
"This will only be known when he wakes up." Tong Hu said slowly, "In addition, you don't have to worry about the attack of the Pluto Fighter for the time being, the Pope has already made arrangements. โ
"Yo, teacher."
Behind Mu and Arudiba, Dismask walked over,
"Fortunately, the bell has been ringed."
"Almost all of the Golden Saints of the Sacred Realm have been summoned here," Saga asked, "Teacher, what the hell are youโ?"
Aries, Mu.
Taurus, Arudiba.
Gemini, Zachar.
Cancer, Dismask.
Leo, Aeolia.
Virgo, Shaga.
Scorpio, Mirรณ.
Sagittarius, Aeolos.
Capricorn, Shura.
Tong Hu confirmed the Golden Saint Seiya here one by one, and all that was left was ......
"Teacher, I've already brought him."
Ka Miao led a man in, who was obviously not expecting so many people to be here, and asked,
"The Golden Saint Seiya is almost here, could it be that the Pope had an accident and wants to choose the right person to assist Master Athena again?"
"Garon, be careful." Zacharem shouted,
"No, Garon is right." Tong Hu was silent for a while, and finally said. "In order to prevent the Pope's condition from worsening, and to maintain stability in the Sanctuary for the next few days, we have to choose someone to replace him temporarily."
Everyone was surprised by Tong Hu's words, but Garon was slightly better and recovered from the shock first.
"Tsk, the holy war hasn't started yet, is there going to be an infighting?"
"Garon, don't talk nonsense." Aiolos said slowly, "The teacher only had to do this for the sake of the stability of the Sanctuary. โ
"So?"
Garon asked Tong Hu,
"Then why don't you tell Athena, who is more qualified than us to decide who will assist her?"
=====================================
It was time to leave, and after settling the girl, Abrodi estimated the time, and prepared to go to the main hall of the Libra Palace to meet the people.
Although he didn't quite understand why Tong Hu wanted to gather everyone, he didn't have much reason to object, not to mention that the side hall was only a little away from the main hall, and the Golden Saint Seiya was next to it, so this environment was much safer than the temple.
"Well, Abrodi, where have they gone?"
The girl's question, still weary, came to her ears, and Abrodi turned to see that the goddess of the Sanctuary was now wearing a white tulle nightdress, holding a goat doll and wiping her eyes, looking around.
That kind of uneasy, sleepy, hesitant, confused look really reassured him,
At this point, they should have all passed, and it probably doesn't matter if there is no one of me.
"They have very important things to take care of."
Abrody crouched down and said softly.
"Is it about the Pope?" The girl asked, "Shura told me that the Pope is sick and may need to recuperate for a while. โ
Abrody was not good at lying, so he could only prevaricate with a hum.
"Abrodi is going too, so let's hurry up."
The girl yawned loudly and held on to her spirits.
Abrody smiled, and his already beautiful face was even more amazing,
"No, I'm not going, I'm your guard tonight, and the task given to me by His Holiness the Pope can't be abandoned halfway."
"Huh? Butโ"
"Let's go, going to bed earlier is good for your body."
Abrodi stretched out his hand, and without knowing what he remembered, he stopped abruptly, tore off the white cloak of the holy robe, wrapped the girl's body, and held her in his arms.
Even through the golden vestments, the girl could feel the warmth, and the comfort and safety of the atmosphere hastened her tiredness and soon prompted her to fall asleep.
"Abrodi's body...... It smells so good. The girl said with a smile on her face.
Abrody shook his head helplessly, carried the girl to the edge of the bed, and gently lowered her.
Even in her sleep, the girl still did not let go of her grip on Pisces' arm.
"Don't worry, I'll always be here."
Abrodi said softly, and then slowly took the girl's hand and covered her with the quilt.
Walking a few steps outside the curtain, Abrodi made sure that the place was well insulated from danger from the periphery, and rushed to her side as soon as possible, before resting quietly against the wall.
