Chapter 43: The Church of Dawn
Outside the crystalline palace, several men in silver armor were discussing something, and Alec's appearance stunned them, and then avoided them with disgust on their faces.
Bruce asked with curiosity on his face, "Teacher, who are they?" ”
Alec glanced at the silver-armored knights, let out a cold snort from his nose, and said, "The miscellaneous pieces of the Ten Thousand Gods Mountain, the lackeys of the gods. ”
"Gods?"
"Yes, gods."
Curious, Bruce didn't pursue any further.
He was keenly aware of Alec's displeasure.
Thinking of Alec's identity, and then looking at the group of knights who shone with the light of "justice", the idiots knew why they didn't deal with it. Bruce mentally compared, and found that he admired the devil's style more. Although he still wants to bring justice and hope to the world, those knights who have been brainwashed by the gods and sing two hymns when they have nothing to do are really not his favorite style.
…………
The illusion in the clouds was very large, and on the hanging corridor, Bruce saw all kinds of life.
Handsome elves, short, strong dwarves, Medusa with human heads and snake bodies, human wizards with magic staffs, hideous faces of abyssal demons, and even disembodied elemental beings.
If you don't step out of the plane, you'll never know that there is a lot of the world.
Bruce originally thought that the United States was big enough, but only now did he understand that compared to all this in front of him, the United States and even the entire DC world are just a drop in the ocean. He finally understood where the arrogant arrogance in Alec came from -- after seeing all this, the so-called strong people in DC were just arrogant turtles.
He was glad that he had the opportunity to step out of the DC world.
Even at the cost of becoming an apprentice to the devil.
……
The two of them walked all the way along the sky corridor, and after about half an hour, they finally reached the end of the trip.
Canyon in the clouds.
This is a canyon suspended in the air, in the rolling clouds, green mountains and green water are faintly visible, and there are clear springs left on the top of the mountain, throwing down like a waterfall. Many buildings have been built in the canyon, most of them made of colorful crystals, and only a few are made of rock. Stone buildings are generally the residences of travelers, while those crystal clear buildings are places of trade.
Alec led Bruce into the canyon, where several humans stared at them in disgust.
Eighty percent of the devils' targets are humans, and the remaining two layers are a variety of alien races. This is actually quite normal, in the endless plane, the number of humans accounts for eighty percent, and the various alien races account for the remaining two layers...... If you look at it from this point of view, the devil is still very fair.
But apparently.
Humanity, as a victim, doesn't think so.
A paladin in silver armor blocked the way of the two, and he said in a proud and high-pitched voice, "Yo! What do I see? Which family's cub is this, only intermediate level, ran to the cloud fantasy to wander, lost? Do you want Uncle to send you back to hell? Anyway, it's the home of you devil cubs, so it's perfect where to go back from......"
Alec's face sank: "Get out!" ”
The paladin choked, and a few fierce lights flashed in his eyes: "Boy, do you know who Lao Tzu is?" ”
He pointed to the badge on his chest, a glittering sword with holy streaks all over it, and at the top of the sword, the head of a demon hung from it. This is a demon slaying insignia, representing the military exploits of the knight in front of him in the demon slaying war. Next to this badge hangs the seal of the church, and the content of the seal is very simple, only a silver rising sun.
Lord of the Dawn.
Mount Loda.
Alec's lips were a little bitter, Lota Mountain was one of the most hostile gods to the lower planes, and his teachings were full of disgust with demons and demons, even the silent underworld was criticized as an "insult to life".
In the Church of this powerful god of light, believers openly exchange the heads of demons and demons for magic and divine graces, and each of his followers must hunt enough demons to be recognized by the Lord of the Dawn...... But the years of conquest did not weaken him, in fact, on the contrary, the Dawn Church has cultivated an astonishing number of masters of the light system in the battles again and again, and has also become one of the top gods of the light god system.
The man in front of him is his follower.
Judging from the aura that the paladin did not deliberately hide, he was already a knight at the peak of the lord level. This may be a bit inaccurate, because in the power system established by humans, the lord level is called a legend, and the king level is revered as a saint, or demigod.
This is a legendary knight.
Not to mention that Alec in front of him is just a clone, even if his body comes, he can't escape being slapped to death.
The only thing that made him feel a little comforted was that he was in the plane controlled by the Storm Lord of the Ancient God System, and without the Storm Lord nodding, the man in front of him had ten thousand courages, and he didn't dare to touch him in the slightest.
……
The paladin continued to dance and perform his show, while Alec stared at him as usual.
This is a fantasy in the clouds, and nothing escapes the eyes of the Lord of the Storm.
If he'd guessed correctly, the Storm Djinn would be over soon. The paladin's energetic performance in front of him was nothing more than trying to provoke Alec, if Alec was angry and rushed to strike first, he would be able to kill Alec on the spot. If Alec really is a newborn devil, such a trick can easily work, and for the Church of Dawn, such a method is a vile but a good way to weaken the power of Hell, and many priests and paladins are quite skillful.
The paladins danced for a long time, until a few powerful storm djinns came from a distance, and they had to stop doing so.
He snorted on the ground, gave Alec a hateful look, and left with a few of his companions.
Seeing that things had subsided, a few storm djinns simply turned to leave.
This happens all the time, not only when the paladins humiliate the newborn devils, but also when the old devils use the same tactics against the younger paladins. For the weaker side, at this time, if you hold back, you will live, and if you are impulsive, you will die.
Alec had already experienced it.
But now that he has experienced it again, he still feels an indescribable humiliation.
He silently jotted down the paladin's appearance in his mind, then sneered and left with Bruce. Although there is a huge gap between his strength and the paladin, it does not mean that he must swallow his anger, there are rules customized by the Lord of the Storm in the cloud illusion, and playing tricks within the rules, no matter how strong the paladin's strength is, he may not be able to play a cunning devil.
