Unlike the ornate palaces above the clouds that many people imagine, heaven is a whole world, like hell, divided into many parts, including the familiar New Jerusalem and the Garden of Eden.

The place where the angels are located is called the Holy City, and the Holy City has twelve gates, each of which has angels depicted on it, and the city walls have twelve foundations, on which are the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

Entering through the east gate, one can see the veiled houses and the elect believers who came and went, and who were engaged in the same twelve occupations here as they did on earth.

After passing through the settlement, you can see an incomparably clear, crystal-clear river of life flowing through the city, reflecting the glittering light on the surface of the river, and the banks of the river are planted with verdant trees, which bear twelve kinds of fruit every month, and the emerald green leaves are the most precious elixir in the world, which can heal all people.

Swimming up the river of life, you will come to the sacred palace of three buildings, the halls of which are endless, and only the holy angels can walk by its throne to the end of the river, a garden full of green grass and flowers.

The garden is also infinite, a place for angels who have returned from guarding duty to sleep on the grass by the river or lean under the trees to feather each other, and chirping newborns prefer to run in groups to fish in the Garden of Eden.

There are no flower pavilions or tables and chairs in the garden, and angels walk barefoot and sit on the ground, but in the center of the garden there is an octagonal curtain erected by archangels, where archangels often gather to talk about trivial matters at work.

As Michael and Lucifer sat in the midst of the curtain drinking from the fountain of life in crystal glasses, Michael sighed and said, "Of course I know that you have come back to gas Gabriel, but you must have a long-term plan, and will you go back to hell again?" ”

"I've long been tired of hell, and if it weren't for the wheat dissuasion, I would have sealed it off and driven all the devils out."

Michael shook his head, as if frustrated by Lucifer's willfulness, but he continued, "I have told Raphael to bring back the newborn angels who had been commanded by Gabriel to fall into hell, and to bathe them again in the holy spring and be baptized in the light, in the hope that they will return to purity." ”

"I thought you'd judge them directly."

"That is unjust, they have only been deceived by Gabriel, and every angel is born with the blessing of the Lord, if it is so easy to fall, how can I guard the dignity of heaven?"

"Rigid." Lucifer took a sip of spring water and commented, but he didn't refute it, he wiped his mouth and said, "Wheat's wound is not healed yet, I won't stay in heaven for long, I'll leave later." ”

Michael frowned a little dissatisfied, and he didn't know whether he was against him and the female demon, or if he was dissatisfied with Lucifer who had just returned and was leaving his post without permission.

"The Archangel's duty is to guard the Holy City, you can't leave for too long, or you'll ......"

As soon as Michael said this, another young angel came over, saluted Michael, and said, "Your Crown Michael, Your Crown Raphael said that the newborn angels have arrived, and he is checking them one by one for signs of depravity, and asks if you would like to go and have a look." ”

"I'm not going." Michael glanced at Lucifer, and the implication was that I was going to be here looking at another guy who was even more uneasy than the newborn angel.

After the young angel had departed, a short time later, the figure of Raphael flashed outside the hedge of the trees, and he was leading a group of young angels towards the palace, apparently to the source of the holy spring, to reflect their souls with the water, and to check their purity.

Michael didn't care at all, and said there: "Gabriel's trouble this time is not small, the new angels born in the past thousand years must be checked, and some of them who have misbehaved a long time ago, had quarrels with their brothers and sisters, or sneaked into the human world to cause trouble, must be dealt with together, so that this kind of thing will not happen again......"

"By the way, Lucifer, if you can contact the demon king on the other side of hell, ask them if they know which angel has contacted them, their information must be accurate...... Lucifer? Lucifer?! What happened to you? ”

I saw Lucifer staring at the fence on the fence gate of the bush, his expression was very stiff, his expression was like a ghost, he opened his mouth a few times, and then said in a daze: "No, nothing, I may have been under too much pressure recently and hallucinated." ”

Michael immediately frowned, his personality was more serious and serious, and he rarely joked, seeing that Lucifer's expression was not fake, so he asked, "Are you alright?" …… Well, if staying here stresses you out, I'm not going to force you to leave, but you should know that you can't have any deep relationships with demons, it's unclean......"

Lucifer stood up suddenly, grabbed Michael's arm by the side, and pulled him out of the hedge.

Michael was dragged to his feet by some unknown reason, and as he walked out, Michael asked, "Where are you going?" Have you forgotten your way out of heaven? Then you can find another angel to lead the way for you, and I have to go back to the Garden of Eden......"

"Shut up! …… I mean, I think the fall of the newborn angels is quite serious, and we have to go to the baptism ceremony for ourselves, and we can't count on Raphael's sleepy spirit. ”

Lucifer turned back to Michael and showed a stiff smile that did not smile, Michael frowned, looked at Lucifer with a puzzled and slightly disgusted gaze, and said, "When have you been so responsible?" When God said that new angels would be born from the spring, didn't you still want to drain the water to prevent them from bothering you? ”

"That's all in the past." Lucifer pouted and said, "Have you forgotten that when the first newborns first arrived, you were annoyed by their shedding every day?" ”

While they were talking, they had rushed to the chapel where the ritual was performed, and the holy spring that flowed from the icons was the most holy of baptismal springs, and the newborn angels came out of the spring, and the blessed spring gave them all kinds of good qualities.

The vast majority of newborn angels are very simple, to put it bluntly, they are a bit stupid, they do not have the all-knowing and all-powerful person created by God himself, and they rarely leave heaven, a place where the big guys are very simple, so since the birth of the newborn angels, the depravity of being deceived, abducted and polluted has been repeatedly prohibited.

The best way to detect if the newborn angels are tainted is to lead them to the source of the holy spring where they were born, if the surface of the holy spring can reflect their shadows, they will still be pure, if not, I am afraid they have fallen.

When Lucifer rushed in with Michael, the ceremony was already halfway through, and the newborn angels who had passed the test were gathering in groups to discuss the recent events, and Lucifer could hear them talking about himself, but he didn't have time to care.

Lucifer's gaze fell on a figure at the very end of the line that had not yet been inspected, and when his gaze focused on the face, Lucifer was completely transformed into a sculpture, and then cracked on the spot.

Angels of all stripes huddled around the fountain, their winged feathers falling to the ground due to crowding and rubbing, most of them had dark hair, and there were only a few like Lucifer who had brilliant blonde hair, most of them were brown and dark brown, and there were also some red-haired angels.

Contrary to human rumors, the pupils of angels do not have so many bells and whistles, nor do they glow, most of them are the pale color described in the Bible, that is, white with a hint of gray, but also yellow, which is close to gold, and even reddish-brown.

Then one of the blue eyes stood out, and even more prominent was his handsome appearance that was not inferior to a group of angels, but also slightly superior.

And what made Lucifer crack in place was the name represented by the familiar facial features on this handsome face - Bruce Wayne.

It's hard to tell that this is Batman, because unlike all the dark and even gloomy Batman Archangels know of him, this Bruce is a little too holy, and the light surging in his soul is stronger than all the newborn angels present combined.

Curious as to what had happened to Lucifer, Michael followed his gaze and brought up the second cracked sculpture in the sanctuary.

Raphael stood in the middle of the holy spring, his dazzling red hair braided into the back of his head, his expression like all the migrant workers in the world who stayed up late and worked overtime to deal with the mess of his colleagues, his eyebrows drooped, his expression sleepy, and he mechanically repeated the work at hand.

"Next!" Raphael shouted.

The angel in front of Bruce walked over, he saluted Raphael, walked to the front of the fountain and bowed his head, and the moment his shadow was reflected on the surface of the fountain, he breathed a sigh of relief, folded his wings and walked to the other side.

And when Bruce walked over to that side, Raphael didn't even look at his face, just waved his hand to signal him to hurry, and Bruce walked in front of the Holy Spring.

Just as he looked down at the water, there was a whoosh sound, and the two most famous archangels in heaven grabbed his arms one on the left and one on the right.

Lucifer on the left gritted his teeth and said, "Bruce! What are you doing? Is this the place for you? ”

"How can there be a Batman here?!" Michael's voice was even more horrified than his: "How could Batman go to heaven?!" Who's doing this good thing?! Is it crazy to lead angels?!!! ”

Bruce reached out and grabbed Lucifer's wrist and pulled it down, then moved his arm away from Michael, rolled his eyes and said, "How I got here, won't you see for yourself?" Get out of the way, don't stand in my way. ”

After saying that, he was about to walk forward to look at the surface of the holy spring, but Lucifer grabbed him, and after being stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and he looked at Michael on the opposite side and said, "It's Gabriel...... Gabriel gave him his wings! ”

"God! Look at the good things you've done! Michael hurriedly made a series of prayer gestures on his chest, and said in a rather angry manner: "This is the fate of Gabriel that you rushed back to Qi Gabriel!" He even wanted to blow up heaven! Think of a way! ”

Bruce frowned, shook Lucifer's arm away from him, and said dissatisfiedly, "Is there anything I can't say until I'm done with the ritual?" ”

"Wait a minute." Lucifer scurried in front of Bruce with a nimble movement, between him and the Holy Spring, spreading his wings to block Bruce's path.

Michael stopped in front of Bruce in the same way, but he didn't know why, so he lowered his voice and asked Lucifer, "What's wrong?" Why are you holding him back......"

"If you don't stop him, what if a clown pops up in the holy spring later?!"

As soon as Michael wanted to say that it was impossible, he saw that Batman on the opposite side "cut" and pouted, as if the conspiracy had been exposed.

"Haven't you found out yet? This Batman is like no other...... He...... He ...... "Lucifer snorted for a long time, but couldn't find a suitable adjective, and finally gritted his teeth and said."

"He's a little too trendy!"
