On the road outside the city of Bethlehem.

Sun Ran was wearing a thick hooded cloak and carrying a stick in his hand, on which was tied a tender carrot, and the carrot jumped in the air, hanging right in front of the donkey.

So, carrying a sword, a bow, and two large bags of luggage, the donkey followed the carrot all the way, and tirelessly carried Sun Ran across thousands of miles from the city of Tyre to Bethlehem.

After attracting it for a while, it felt almost over, so Sun Ran let the donkey get the turnip, then took out another one from the bag and tied it, and hung it in front of the donkey again, so the donkey began to work hard for the next carrot again.

It was winter, with dark clouds and heavy snowfall, and there were basically no pedestrians on the road, and even the guards guarding the gate were huddled in the barracks behind the city gate.

When he arrived at the city gate, Sun Ran threw over a silver coin: "I want to enter the city." ”

The guard stretched out his hand to take it, put it in his hand and blew on it, and then put it in his ear to listen, and after confirming the authenticity of the silver coin, he shrank back and asked lazily, "What are you doing in the city?" ”

"I am a bard, and I have heard that Bethlehem is a famous city on the mainland, and I have come to see the world." Sun Ran took out a strong bow disguised as a lyre.

"Oh, it's really painful to run around in winter, let's go in." The soldier waved his hand.

Sun Ran entered the city, according to the instructions of the Dragon of Order, all the way towards the birthplace of the Holy Son, and after walking for more than half an hour, he suddenly saw a person on the side of the road, like him, wearing a full-body cloak looking at him.

Turning his head to look at the person, the carrot in Sun Ran's hand limped, leading the donkey into a remote alley, and the man followed.

When he got into the alley, he looked left and right and saw no one, and the man took off his hood. The face is very familiar, it is the Seraphic Angel Gabriel, but now in the mortal world, she is the same as Sun Ran, she is only a third-level priest, and it depends on the specific level of divine power. There is still a bit of a gap with the current Sun Ran.

"Michael, you're late." She reproached.

"Haha, it's not too soon, it's not too late, it's just right." Sun Ran smiled and asked again, "What about Raphael?" ”

"He accidentally got poisoned while he was in the hotel and went back to heaven." Gabriel sighed.

"Oh, that's a dangerous situation." Sun Ran was stunned.

Gabriel nodded. looked at Sun Ran's bag again, reached out and took out a bamboo tube from it, and with a little effort, the bamboo tube cracked in the middle, revealing an iron sword.

"You've brought a sword, that's fine, but can you use sword skills with this body?" Gabriel asked, knowing that Odin possessed powerful martial arts. But now the body has not been trained, there is no physical fitness. If you don't have a strong body, you can't fight.

"Absolutely." Sun Ran said with a smile: "I've been exercising, I'm in good health, and it's no problem to deal with more than a dozen formal knights." And I also brought a bow. ”

Gabriel closed the bamboo tube, put it back in his bag, and nodded, "That's good." Now the situation is complicated. The two sides are at odds in this city, and the dark angels have done everything in their power to kill Maria, the Mother of the Son, and we have fought many times in the shadows. Up to now, ten guardian angels sent by the Lord. Nine have already been lost! In the surrounding area, plus me, there are only two angels left. ”

"It should be three, haven't I already arrived?" Sun Ran said with a smile.

He jumped off the donkey's back, took out the bamboo tube as a cane in his hand, took out a bow disguised as a lyre and put it on his back, then gently patted the donkey's buttocks, and said with a smile: "Man, you've completed your mission, find a place to rest." Be careful not to be slaughtered and eaten meat. ”、

The donkey snorted a few times and ran away, Sun Ran didn't have to worry about his removal, the dragon of order would let people adopt it, and then at the critical moment, it would run back to help.

"Then let's go now, take me around, and see what is going on around me." Sun Ran leaned on crutches and said with a smile.

"Follow me." Gabriel led the way, introducing the situation as she went: "Our Lady's name is Maria, and she is the fiancée of a carpenter named Joseph, who is very unhappy because she became pregnant out of wedlock......

"Hmm~ Whoever encounters this situation will be unhappy. This point could be exploited by Lucifer, be careful. Sun Ran said.

"Okay." Gabriel nodded and continued, "A few days ago, a rumor appeared in the city, and an astrologer predicted that the future king of Bethlehem would be born in the city. The current king, Herous, was a man of great obsession with royal power, and he would not allow anyone to threaten his throne, not even an infant or even an unborn child. ”

"Oh~" Sun Ran groaned, and then said: "In that case, this city can't stay anymore, let's leave here with Maria now." ”

"I've already done that." Gabriel said, "Joseph is planning to leave the city with Maria. I guess it's tomorrow. ”

"Oh, it doesn't seem like I'm too late, haha." Sun Ran said with a smile.

So saying, the two of them had already arrived near Joseph's house.

"Maria was inside, and now Joseph is taking care of her." Gabriel Road.

"Just the two of them?"

"No, there is also a guardian angel, it is Maria's mother, she was originally the powerful god of Zeus, Athena. However, she seems to be suspicious of the Lord, so she failed to become a Seraph. Gabriel introduced.

"Oh." Sun Ran was relieved: "With her here, there will be no problem." ”

The two walked around the residence and didn't find anything abnormal, so Sun Ran sat down on a street corner, curled up and said, "I looked, this is the most important gap, I'll keep it here." ”

"Okay." Gabriel nodded, and she hurried away, staying in another direction.

Time passed, the snowflakes kept drifting, and a thick layer of snowflakes fell on Sun Ran's cloak, and the sky slowly darkened.

Suddenly, Sun Ran's ears moved slightly, and he heard the faint sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and then a message from the dragon of order came to his mind: "King Herous was bewitched by Lucifer and gave an order to kill all children under the age of two in the city. Now that the soldiers have set off, hurry up and make countermeasures! ”

The Dragon of Order not only informed Sun Ran, but also informed Gabriel and Athena of the news.

After a while, the door of Joseph's house opened not far away, and three figures appeared, and the old mother, played by Athena, helped Maria out, and Joseph followed them, holding a carpenter's chisel in his hand, and looked around with a wary expression.

The three of them hurriedly went out, and Sun Ran looked at Athena, and saw that she quietly made a few gestures to him, which was sign language, which means: They are ready to leave the city now.

Sun Ran stood up, took off the bow on his back and hid it under the cloak, and followed the three of them far away to protect him.

After a while, he saw Gabriel in the other direction, also fully armed, watching from a distance the three figures advancing in the wind and snow.

"Whoosh~" Suddenly a soft sound appeared in the whistling wind, it was a dark arrow, shot at Maria.

Sun Ran's body moved as he wished, his hand shook, the bowstring sounded softly, and two arrows were shot, one intercepted, and the other shot at the assassin.

There was a 'pop' sound, and the dark arrow was intercepted, and with a 'poof' sound, the arrow went into the flesh, and the assassin was shot dead on the spot.

These voices were very soft, muffled by the wind and snow, the three of them were dazed, still advancing, only the secret Gabriel saw all this, was stunned for a moment, and then gave Sun Ran a thumbs up.

Being able to use such archery skills in the wind and snow is really powerful, and she can't do it.

At this moment, there was the sound of horses' hooves behind him, it was the guards who were chasing over, listening to the sound of horses' hooves, the number was about ten, Sun Ran did not hesitate, stood on the side of the street, through the heavy wind and snow, listened to the sound to identify the position, raised his bow and shot continuously.

The arrow was submerged in the wind and snow, and suddenly there was a "hmm~" and "poof!" "Ah~" "uh" The sound kept ringing.

In less than half a minute, the sound of horses' hooves disappeared into the wind and snow, and the figures never appeared, and these cavalrymen had all been shot dead on the spot, and from beginning to end, they did not see where their opponents were.

Joseph apparently heard the sound and looked back, but it was so far away that he could only see a vast expanse of wind and snow, which made him feel very uneasy.

But strangely, no one caught up with him all the time. In this snowstorm, there seems to be a powerful force hidden in it, keeping all danger out.

It was so strange that Joseph couldn't help but think, "Could it be that Maria really had the so-called Holy Spirit in her belly?" ”

No one gave him an answer, so he could only continue walking in the direction of the city gate.

The shadows of the city.

The two shadows whispered.

"The situation is not good, Michael is here, he used to be Odin, and he was once the king of the highlands, and he is unparalleled in war. Now he is the most powerful priest in the mortal world, very powerful! ”

"No matter how powerful it is, it's just one person, now that the whole city is rounding up, the soldiers will soon find out about the abnormality, and he can't stop it." (To be continued......)
