Chapter VII.
Tonight at 1 o'clock in the morning will be a meeting between Lucifer and Gabriel, and since Lucifer has invited us to go, we must admire our faces, let alone go with unpleasant feelings. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
We slept all day, and at 1 o'clock in the morning, we adjusted our mood to meet Lucifer at Richard the Lionheart. That night, Lucifer also brought a bouquet of bright red roses to give to Gabriel. He already knew what happened to us last night, and he said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help this time, I only found out after the incident." ”
"No, you've helped us enough. I said, "Don't mention it, it's a blessing in misfortune for the three of us to be alive to meet you, and if it weren't for the strength you gave me, we wouldn't be here tonight." ”
"The souls of your dead compatriots will rest forever in their rightful place. Thank goodness the three of you are still alive. ”
"Gabriel should have arrived, right?"
"Not yet, for such an important matter, she shouldn't miss the appointment. ”
"Wait. ”
"Your Highness. A familiar voice suddenly appeared behind us.
Lucifer turned, "Beelzebub, why are you here?
Beelzebub looked embarrassed, "You may be waiting for Gabriel." ”
"yes, what's wrong?"
"I'm afraid she won't be able to come?"
"What? You tell me clearly, what happened?"
"Gabriel has been accused of treason, and some say that she has long wanted to join you in the rebellion against the kingdom of heaven. ”
"No way, his meeting with me was approved by the Holy Father, absolutely not what you say. Where is she?" Lucifer was so annoyed that he threw away the rose in his hand and grabbed Beelzebub by the collar, "Tell me, where is she now?"
"I am preparing to be punished in the City of Angels. ”
"Beelzebub, how do you know?" I asked.
"It's true. ”
"Lucifer, don't be impulsive, beware of being fooled, maybe Gabriel is on his way to meet you. ”
"Can I still lie to him? Even if you wait until dawn, she won't come. ”
Lucifer stabilized his mood a little and loosened Beelzebub's clothes, "Beelzebub, I ask you, how do you know?"
"An angel who supports Gabriel sneaks into Hell and asks for your help in the hope that you will save Gabriel from the guillotine. ”
"Guillotine? So, she's sentenced to death?"
"Probably. ”
"What's the name of the angel who told the news?"
"He didn't have time to say his name, he just told us the fact. ”
"How could Gabriel be accused of guilt for no reason? ”
"You'd better hurry up and save her, it's a waste of time to think about it like this, Samael and I have decided to go with you. ”
"Someone can't have made this up, right?" I asked.
"Who would have to make up such a lie? You wouldn't be suspicious of me, would you?"
"I didn't say I doubted you. Lucifer, you must think carefully, don't act rashly, you had better go to Heaven to confirm it, if there is really no other way, it is not too late for you to save her. ”
"The angels who wanted to put Gabriel to death wanted His Highness Lucifer to come to the door himself, so that he could be captured in one fell swoop. ”
"No, I've got to go see what's going on?" Lucifer looked anxious.
"Perhaps, Gabriel has now been guillotined. ”
"I don't believe it. ”
"Well, if you don't believe it, what do you think it is?" Beelzebub handed him a ring as she pulled out a ring.
Lucifer looked at the ring closely, "This is Gabriel's, why is it here for you?"
"The angel who told the news was afraid that you would not believe it, so he sent Gabriel's ring. It could also be that Gabriel deliberately asked him to send it, which means that she is sending you a plea for help. Whether you believe it or not, I've told you anyway, believe it or not. Now that you have heard of this, it would be your sin if you did not save Gabriel before she was put to death. ”
Lucifer thought for a moment, "Gather the army and join me in rescuing Gabriel." ”
"Do you want Samael and I to go with you?"
"You two, take your men with you, and wait for my orders, and you are not allowed to attack without my orders. ”
"Yes. Beelzebub smiled and vanished.
I thought: if what Beelzebub said was true, then there must be a way to clarify everything for Gabriel, and there was no need to go to war. If what he said was false, or if he deliberately set up a conspiracy to frame Lucifer, wouldn't Lucifer be unlucky? If Samael was the mastermind of this conspiracy, the consequences would have been terrible.
"Alex. Lucifer said, "You'd better go back first, I don't want to get you involved." ”
"Lucifer, you must not use force to solve it, I think there must be a misunderstanding here, Gabriel will not be so easily accused, don't believe Beelzebub's words. ”
"If Gabriel was indeed on the guillotine, and I didn't save her when I learned about it, wouldn't I have done her a disservice? So...... For her sake, I'd rather go out and have absolutely no regrets. ”
I was in utter despair, if he was deceived, he would be the scapegoat for this war, and I could only pray silently for him in my heart! In order to help him, I decided to go with him, hoping to help him in his time of danger, so I asked Frank and Isabel to go back to the base first.
"Why aren't you leaving?" asked Lucifer me.
"I'm going with you, you've helped me so much, I'm going to help you this time. I said.
"Well, you have to be careful, if there is a fight, I won't care about you. ”
"Got it. ”
A fallen angel dressed in civilian clothes handed Lucifer a double-edged sword with a glittering cold light, "Your Highness, your sword. ”
Lucifer took the weapon, and his body was quickly wrapped in dragon scale armor, and six wings grew. He swung his sword into the sky, and a flash of light suddenly appeared in the night sky, and a huge gaseous vortex appeared. The gates of heaven are opened.
I'm a mix of angel and demon, vampire and human, and the left half of my body is like a devil again, and this time I'm completely able to control this energy and fly like Peter Pan for long periods of time without wings.
Lucifer led us into the great maelstrom, and he ordered his army to hide in the dark clouds, leaving me alone to accompany him to the City of Angels, to find out what had happened to Gabriel.
If Gabriel was really taken to the guillotine, Lucifer would have given his life to save him, and I would have helped him at that time, and if I helped him, I would be the enemy of God.
When I arrived in the realm of heaven, I saw that outside the beautiful Foggy Mountains, a beautiful city standing in the clouds was built around the mountain, and there was no end in sight, like a magical realm, and there was no doubt that this was the city of angels. There is a wide river that meanders through the mountains, dividing the city into north and south, and several tributaries of the river also flow through various areas of the city, and on the huge triangular stone platform in the center of the south of the city, there is a gate that radiates colorful light, like a time and space tunnel, but it is not a time and space tunnel, but a gate to the seven heavens.
Outside the city gates, two angelic guards stopped us with spears. "Lucifer, what are you going to do?" one of the guards scolded.
"I've heard that Gabriel has been framed, is that true?" Lucifer asked.
"I don't understand what you're saying, get out of here. ”
"Is she guillotined? ”
"Gabriel has been guillotined? ”
"You have to answer my question right away. ”
"What do you want to do with your armor and weapons?"
"Don't delay here, don't let it go, beware of my welcome. ”
"Calm down. I advised Lucifer, "Beware of misunderstandings. ”
And he didn't take my words seriously at all, but became even more annoyed, and he pointed his double-edged sword at the guard and scolded: "Quickly answer my questions, if you don't answer my questions again, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
"You can't go into this place. ”
"What's the matter?" said an archangel as he stepped out of the tall gates.
I saw that he was a little familiar, and immediately remembered that I had seen him when I was in Elias, and his name was Raphael.
"Raphael, you've come just in time. Lucifer said.
When Raphael saw Lucifer, he immediately became vigilant. "Lucifer, what are you doing here?" he asked.
"Don't you even need to ask?
"What the hell is going on?"
"I figured it out, you know I'm going to come to save her, so I'm deliberately delaying time. ”
"Please make me clear. ”
"I don't have time to talk to you. Lucifer rushed forward, he quickly cut off the spears in the hands of the two guards, and then rushed towards Raphael, who quickly dodged, and Lucifer did not continue to entangle, but flew into the city.
When one of the guards on the bell tower saw this, he blew the horn of warning, and the whole city was capturing Lucifer. I didn't rush in with him, but flew to a huge tree about a few hundred meters high outside the city to look inside. I saw Lucifer in the city with his powerful magic, easily killing a way, he just injured the angels who stood in his way, and he didn't want to kill them with malicious intent. I thought: I'd better stop looking at it, so as not to get into trouble.
"Who are you?" asked an angel.
"I ......," I said, "I'm a friend of Lucifer." "At this moment, Lucifer rushed out of the city and landed in front of me, and he looked puzzled. "What's going on?" I asked him.
"What's going on?" he said, puzzled.
"What's wrong?"
"Gabriel is not in the city at all. ”
Raphael soon led a multitude of angels around us. "Lucifer, do you know what this place is, dare you go wild here, don't you really want to live?" said Raphael.
Lucifer was still confused, and he didn't answer.
"Answer me. Raphael asked.
Suddenly, a cloud of smoke flew to Raphael's side, and the smoke instantly turned into Samael and Beelzebub. "Your Highness Raphael, thank you for staying in the city today. Samael said.
"Samael, how could it be you?" Raphael looked surprised, "why are you here too?
"Of course not, we're here to save you. ”
"Save us?"
"Lucifer wants to use the excuse of looking for Gabriel to counterattack the City of Angels. ”
"What?" Lucifer was furious when he heard this, "Samael, why are you doing this?"
"You don't have to quibble. Samael looked at the angry Lucifer, "Your legion of Hell is hiding in the dark clouds below. He waved his wings at the large dark clouds below, blowing them away and revealing all of Lucifer's army.
When Raphael saw the army of fallen angels, he panicked, "Oh my God, Lucifer, what do you want to do?"
"What the hell is going on?" Lucifer immediately realized that he had been fooled, "Samael, you...... It turned out that you and Beelzebub were playing tricks on me. ”
"Assemble the army. Raphael shouted. The angelic army immediately assembled and prepared to fight Lucifer to the death.
"That's right, Lucifer is not satisfied with his life in hell, he wants to be the lord of all gods. Samael said.
Lucifer rushed to Samael in anger, Samael and the angelic legion rushed up, trying to stop Lucifer, the fallen angels saw that the situation was not good, and they also swarmed up, and the two sides immediately fell into a bloody fight. A great war that could have been avoided unfolded.
I don't know what this is all about, but is it a personal vendetta that has caused this war that should not have been?
Lucifer led several henchmen to lead the army into the city. Raphael led his army in a swift retreat into the city. Samael's rebel army, led by the Three Great Demons and some of the fallen angels, is gone. However, the dominant Lucifer did not take advantage of the victory, as he seemed to know that Gabriel had not committed a crime and was not in the City of Angels. He thought: Gabriel must have been taken away in advance by Samael's gang. Enraged by Samael's betrayal, he cut off the heads of two angelic statues and vowed to kill him with his own hands.
"Gabriel is not in the city. Lucifer said.
"Your Highness, the angels defending the city have been hit hard, so we might as well take advantage of the victory and pursue and occupy the entire city. A fallen angel said.
"There is no need, if we do as you say, we will fall for Samael's tricks. ”
"Since Gabriel is still alive, we should go to her first. I said.
"The point is...... He is the only one who knows the cause and effect of this war caused by Samael, and if Gabriel is really kidnapped by him, then he will definitely threaten me with Gabriel's life. ”
"With this possibility, using Gabriel as a hostage is also the only bargaining chip that can defeat you. Perhaps we should go to Michael first, and he may help you analyze the matter. ”
"Can Michael believe me? I wanted his life, and he wanted to kill me, and I wouldn't go to him. ”
"Don't forget, he showed mercy to your men when he was in the Alps. ”
"That's because I've been merciful to his men before. ”
"When something so big happens, Michael will never sit idly by, let him investigate the matter thoroughly, and it is better to talk to him alone. ”
"But how can I see him?
"Gabriel should be fine. ”
"Alex, you don't know Samael, he can do anything, and the more time passes, the more worried I become. ”
"I think it's better not to act rashly, or it will cause a big disaster. ”
"No, I have to find Samael as soon as possible. ”
"How do you find it? The City of Angels is so big, it can't be turned around in a few days, and it's even harder to find someone. ”
"Then I will take the city, unless they hand over Gabriel. ”
"No, you're only hurting her, she's gone missing to see you, and if Samael had really taken her away, he wouldn't have hid her here. ”
"Then I will force the angels to hand over Samael, or else...... I'm not leaving. ”
"Oh God, what's in it for you?"
"You don't have to worry about that, Alex, you just need to help me, if something happens, I'll carry it for you, but don't worry, I won't let you do something unwillingly. He ordered his troops to divide into five routes and prepare to march into the interior of Angel City.
The City of Angels is so big, it's the first time I've seen such a spectacular sight, with majestic buildings of different shapes standing in the middle of the city, where you can see the overlapping mountains and cliffs in the city, and you can also see the brilliant stars in the sky.
I didn't expect the city of angels to really exist, some strange flowers and trees are scattered in all corners of the city, the sword-like sunlight penetrates the clouds, draping the angel statue in the center of the city with a golden veil, and there is a large dazzling golden yellow under the green mountain in the city, what could it be? Lucifer seemed to know what I was asking, and he told me: it is the Golden Leaf Forest, the Golden Leaf Tree is a species unique to the City of Angels, a special protected plant in the City of Angels, and any angel who picks the golden leaves will be cursed and will fall into hell, and endure the bite of the skeleton fish in the River Styx.
"Your Highness, everything is ready. A fallen angel reported to Lucifer.
Lucifer then ordered: "According to the original plan, take the northern city first." ”
"Yes. ”
The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd legions of fallen angels swarmed up to fight to the death against the angels defending the city. The 4th and 5th Corps were responsible for keeping guard outside the city.
Lucifer took the lead and greatly boosted the morale of his army, and his army swept to the river that flowed through the center of the city with lightning speed.
By the time more angelic armies arrived, Lucifer's army had all but captured the northern city. The defenders gathered in the southern city, but they were still three or four times as numerous as the fallen angels.
Subsequently, more angelic armies came from the Seven Heavenly Gates in the southern city to reinforce one after another, and the angelic armies of the seven heavens soon came to the southern city, and their number was six to seven times that of the fallen angels.
Although Lucifer won an unprecedented victory, it was certainly not a permanent occupation, and this act of brazen war often became a step for Samael and others to strengthen their position in the kingdom of heaven.
Lucifer and I went to the temple of Medanzo by the river, where a fallen angel walked in and excitedly reported the victory to Lucifer. Thankfully, Lucifer let go of all the captured Angel defenders, and did not deliberately sabotage or kill innocents in the occupied territory.
When we came to the rooftop, we saw Raphael and Samael discussing their strategies on the ruins on the south bank of the river, and Beelzebub occasionally called out to the north bank, and he shouted: "Lucifer, you are now guilty of a serious crime, and the Holy Father will punish you, and it is clear that Gabriel has defected to you, but you have pointed the finger at others, and you want to occupy the city of angels under the pretext of looking for Gabriel." ”
Lucifer could hear it clearly, and he muttered remorsefully, "I'm so stupid, I'm so stupid, it's all because I didn't listen to you, Alex." ”
Samael wanted to take this opportunity to return to Heaven. I said, "He is the one who planned this war, and now unless there are witnesses to prove your innocence, you will ...... No one will believe you. ”
"The only witness is Gabriel, but where is she?"
"I'm afraid no one will believe her. ”
"This Samael, I must get rid of him with my own hands. ”
"The most important thing now is to find Gabriel. ”
"Samael is on the other side of the river, he is so close that I will never let him escape again. ”
"For the sake of your reputation, please calm down, if you kill Samael now, it will make others think that you are trying to kill people, and it is also a sign of weakness. ”
"Yes, the bell needs to be tied to the bell, and only Samael knows where Gabriel is. ”
"Do you want to beg him? I don't think it's necessary. ”
"Maybe Gabriel was hidden in some corner of hell by them. ”
"It's a bit of a possibility, the closest places are often the ones that are most overlooked. ”
"Hopefully she'll be alive when I find her. ”
"She's definitely alive, and Samael wouldn't use the dead Gabriel as a hostage, it would be foolish to do that. ”
"Playing hard is not the way to go. ”
"I guess you have something else to do?"
"I'd like to go to the riverbank alone and talk to Samael. ”
"Are you crazy? What if he dies and doesn't admit that he captured Gabriel?"
"Whether he admits it or not, I'm going to try anyway. ”
"I'm going to be with you. ”
"Okay. ”
"You gave me the power of hell and saved my life, so I've been looking for an opportunity to repay you, and today I finally found it. ”
"I hope you don't abuse your great power until you have to. ”
"Then don't you worry, shouldn't we go to the other side of the river now?"
"Yes. Lucifer retracted his wings and thrust his double-edged sword into the crack of the marble brick, "Let's go." ”
"You don't have a weapon?"
He smiled contemptuously, "No, you don't need a weapon against them." ”
