Chapter 274: The Seven Sins – The Day of Judgment (12)
Cheng Mo walked into the holy platform at the sharp end of the eight-pointed star to take a closer look at the holy platform, the crimson podium-like instrument was reflected in the blazing fire in the center of the altar, like the color of solidified blood, he quickly reached out and knocked it, and after the metal gloves collided with the holy platform, there was a metal sound of "ding", to Cheng Mo's surprise, the material of the holy platform was not wooden, but metal.
Captain Wang, Leg Eater Collison, who was walking in front, also heard the voice, and when he turned around, he saw Cheng Mo standing next to the Holy Altar studying something, and he immediately shouted angrily: "Hey, Hillbilly, what are you doing? That's the Holy Altar, if it is broken, I can't afford to take this armor off your body..... If you delay the festival, I promise the dean will burn you to death along with those filthy witches!"
Cheng Mo raised his hands, replied "I'm sorry", and walked towards the team casually.
Collison, the Leg Eater, took off his helmet and turned his head to rebuke Aachen with disdain: "How did you city lord teach his subordinates?
"Hillbilly, how dare he say that the angel is a hillbilly?" Aachen said to himself, feeling the lining under the chain mail getting wet with sweat, and he bowed his head and responded in a humble tone as he prayed for the poor knight in front of him, "I'm sorry..... Honorable Knights. They're just there to show ..... Respect for the Holy Altar!"
"Discipline your men so that their dirty hands do not touch them, and they do not break the altar. ”
"Yes, Honorable Knight. Aachen put on a straight face and was about to say a few words in a fake manner, but when he saw that it was Cheng Mo, he remembered Cheng Mo's eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts and the terrifying bird's beak mask, so he still gave up on entering the play and continued to say in a humble tone, "Everyone be careful, don't touch the altar." ”
Collison, the Leg Eater, was deterred by Aachen's undeterrent criticism, not even criticism, but pleading attitude, and he raised his hand to knock on Aachen's chain mail, and let out an incredulous mockery: "Oh my God, how did you become a soft-footed shrimp?"
"It's an angel behind this, stupid! I don't want to die to scold an angel!" Aachen said to himself, and then he whispered to Collison the Leg Eater, "My lord, I promise they won't touch the altar." With that, Aachen took off the money bag he was tied to his waist and secretly stuffed it into the hand of Collison the Leg Eater.
Leg-eater Collison quietly put away the money bag, snorted coldly, and said, "If you still touch it, I promise I won't be polite to you hillbillies!"
The procession continued along the edge of the courtyard square, and occasionally a hooded monk in a red friar's robe emerged from the room and walked around the cloister to the refectory.
Aso, who was walking side by side with Cheng Mo, took in the expressions of the two NPCs, and turned his head to Cheng Mo with interest and asked, "What is that?"
"Probably an accessory to the altar, and I suspect that the witch's spirit is inlaid in the groove to complete the installation. Cheng Mo whispered.
Aso looked up at the huge Gisfield Monastery and said: "The land of Asgard ruins is the most interesting place I have ever seen, not only the NPCs are like real people, but there is also a plot, it really feels like traveling through the Middle Ages, but there doesn't seem to be such a place in Denmark in history, right? It's really strange......"
"There are so many people, things, and things that have been annihilated in the river of time, and we have no way of knowing for sure if there was a thousand-year-old forest in the Middle Ages, or if there was a Giesfield Abbey, or if Christenfeld was what it looked like in the Land of Ruins. Cheng Mo replied in a low voice.
"The land of ruins is a very inexplicable place, at first I thought that the land of ruins is just virtual reality, the entrance to each land of ruins is the interface that connects our brains with the central database hovering overhead, just like a large online game, Uroboros is the ID, when you have this ID, you can enter the land of ruins, and then level up by fighting monsters...... That doesn't seem to be the case......"
Cheng Mo did not continue to chatter with Aso, because by this time they had already walked through the entire courtyard and came to the front of the solemn main hall. This 30-meter-high stone building is typical of the early Gothic style, and although it is not as elaborate and beautiful as the late Gothic churches, it has a quaint imposing atmosphere, and the façade is made of light gray marble, with a brilliant glow in the rising sun.
Leg-eater Collison turned to Aachen and said, "Tell your people to wait outside, you take the letter from the city lord, and I'll take you to Dean Stefan....."
"Honorable Knight, the letter of the Lord of the City is in the possession of our partner, and he will be responsible for reporting it to Dean Stefan. ”
"Hurry up and call your colleagues, and don't delay the Dean's prayers. Perhaps for the sake of a bag of silver coins, Collison the Leg Eater spoke in a much softer tone.
Aachen hurriedly trotted to the middle of the team and whispered respectfully in front of Cheng Mo: "Lord Angel, now you can go and see Dean Stefan!"
"Let's go!" Cheng Mo said, and then Cheng Mo turned his head to Aso Daikichi and said, "It's hard for Mr. Aso to wait here for a while. ”
Aso Daikichi held the hilt of the long sword that was carried at his waist, and the Dama Golden Knife nodded.
Cheng Mo followed behind Aachen and Collison the Leg Eater as he walked towards the side sanctuary of the main hall. When he opened the door of the Sanctuary, Leg-Eater Collison turned his head to look at Cheng Mo and said impatiently, "Hillbilly, why don't you take off your helmet when you meet Venerable Dean Stefan?"
Aachen's palms were covered with sweat, and he stammered to Collison the Leg Eater, "Knight..... Knight-sama...... You ....." Aachen really couldn't find an explanation, and looked at Cheng Mo with a panicked expression.
However, Cheng Mo took off his helmet casually, revealing a head of golden hair, and blue pupils, the skin of the carrier was already white, and wearing a hair cover and contact lenses was simply the hero king Gilgamesh.
Aachen looked at the blonde Cheng Mo and couldn't help but draw a cross on his chest and silently recited a prayer.
And Leg Eater Collison stared at Cheng Mo's handsome face and the pair of blue pupils that were not angry and arrogant, and couldn't help but be stunned, he had never seen such pure blonde hair and such blue eyes, more sacred and noble than the characters on the mural, this incredible face made Leg Eater Collison involuntarily have respect in his heart.
"You can go in now, right?" Cheng Mo said lightly as he held his helmet in his hand.
Leg-Eater Collison swallowed a mouthful of saliva and whispered, "Who is Your Excellency?"
Cheng Mo didn't intend to hide his identity at this time, what he wanted to do was to control the entire Gisfield Monastery, so he deliberately used his skills to cluster the sound and pour it directly into the ears of the leg eater Collison: "I am Michael." ”
The Leg Eater Collison's mind was full of Cheng Mo's low and majestic voice, and he was suddenly dizzy and dizzy when he was hit by the sound wave, and he grabbed the doorknob and fell to the ground on one knee, of course he didn't believe that the person in front of him would be an angel, he forcibly held the hilt of the sword, drew his sword, pointed at Cheng Mo and whispered, "Who are you?" However, he roared with all his strength but did not make a sound.
Collisson, the Leg Eater with a frightened face, widened his eyes and saw that the blonde man in front of him just glanced at his hand holding the sword, the hilt of the sword was like a red-hot soldering iron, and his hand was hot with green smoke, he screamed and still didn't make a sound, he quickly let go, and the ancestral "Leg Eater Sword" was suspended in the air.
Leg-eater Corrison sat down on the ground in fright, leaning against the wooden door and trembling.
"Mr. Knight, I think you've heard of angels escorting witches, and you're looking for the Holy Archangel, Michael. Aachen immediately triumphantly greeted the prestige of the Leg Eater Collison, who was in a state of shock and panic, and swept away the bad luck of being scolded as a hillbilly by Collison the Leg Eater.
Collison, the Leg Eater, collapsed by the door and didn't know what to do, shivering as he looked at Cheng Mo in the cold morning.
Cheng Mo didn't want to waste time, and looked down at the leg-eater Collison and said solemnly, "Collison, get up, take me to see Stefan." With that, the sword suspended in the air automatically plunged back into Collison's waist.
The miracles made Collison dare not believe that the handsome man in front of him was Michael, he trembled and stood up with the door, and said in horror: "Yes, Michael!" Hearing that he could make a sound again, he immediately subconsciously touched his throat.
"Don't be afraid, I don't blame ignorant mortals. ”
"I'm sorry, Michael-sama, forgive me for being stupid, but I've never wasted my devotion to the Creator!" the agitated Leg Eater Collison was a little incoherent.
"If you are true to your word, the Creator will forgive you for the abomination and deception of meddling in the marriage of others. ”
Leg-eater Collison didn't expect the angel to even know this, his knees weakened, and he fell to his knees: "I swear, I will definitely serve the Creator for the rest of my life!"
"Even if you lose your life, do you hesitate?" Cheng Mo asked.
"Even if you lose your life!" said Collison the Leg-Eater.
"The Creator will bless you!" Cheng Mo said.
Collison the Leg Eater kissed his silver metal boots and whispered in fear, "Thank you, Mistress Michael, I will be your most loyal servant!"
Aachen on the side also knelt at Cheng Mo's feet, and said with his heart and lungs: "Lord Michael, I am also willing to be your most loyal servant. ”
Cheng Mo did not laugh at the ignorance of the ancients, in other words, he could only believe in God in the face of such a situation, he drew the long sword at his waist and whispered: "You two follow me!" Cheng Mo put the sword on the marble floor and said, "O Creator, please give me the virtues of courage, love, patience, goodness, faithfulness, temperance, and wisdom!"
The two kneeling on the ground folded their hands, hung their heads, and repeated: "O Creator, give me courage, love, patience, goodness, faithfulness, temperance, and wisdom!"
"If you call, I will go gladly, for your foolishness is wiser than men, and your weakness is stronger than men." ”
"If you call, I will go gladly, for your foolishness is wiser than men, and your weakness is stronger than men." ”
"Please give me the strength to crush all enemies!"
"Please give me the strength to crush all enemies!"
"Like the wind at dusk. ”
"Like the wind at dusk. ”
"Amen!"
"Amen!"
Cheng Mo raised his long sword and slapped it twice on each of their shoulders, and then said, "I give you the name of the Holy Knight, please cherish the holy name of the god!"
"Thank you, sir!" both bowed at the same time.
"Get up, let's go to Stefan and see if he is faithful to the Creator!"
"Yes, sir!"
After Collison the Leg Eater stood up, Cheng Mo turned his head to look at him and asked, "By the way, Collison, do you know the whole process and content of the festival?"
—————————————————————————
Moments later, Cheng Mo arrived at the temple under the leadership of Collison the Leg-Eater, where a group of monks were praying for the morning, and the solemn and distant sound of chanting scriptures lingered in the temple, and Cheng Mo looked up at the dome of the temple, which was painted with ornate frescoes, mostly based on the Genesis and Notices, and was bordered with fine geometric patterns, while the shrines on the walls around the temple contained marble statues of David, Solomon, Mary, and other prophets, and the statue of the Creator was placed in the center of the temple.
Standing at the entrance to the Sanctuary, Collison the Leg-Eater shouted at the horse-faced, white-bearded old man in a white monk's robe standing below the Creator, "Excuse me! Abbot Stefan, Lord Leohhard's cronies have something important to report!"
The monk who looked like Gandalf in "The Lord of the Rings" looked up at the entrance of the temple, and at first glance he saw Cheng Mo, and then his face changed greatly, and he shouted loudly without hesitation: "Plague Demon! Plague Demon! Now prayer is the only salvation! Kill him!" Abbot Stefan waved the scepter in his hand and pointed at Cheng Mo and shouted again: "Kill him!"
Immediately, the kappa monks standing around the temple all looked at Cheng Mo, and at the same time followed Abbot Stefan and began to chant aloud: "The Creator has come to earth in the name of God! Give us weapons and forgiveness of sins......"
The surrounding idols all moved, they were not originally looking in the direction of Cheng Mo, but at this moment they all turned their heads to look at Cheng Mo, and their eyes emitted golden arcs of light, and suddenly countless golden curves like snakes shot towards Cheng Mo. Like a thousand arrows.
Leg Eater Collison and Aachen did not expect such a situation, and in the face of the overwhelming golden light, they were so stunned and overwhelmed that they even forgot to dodge. Cheng Mo thought to himself that things were really not so easy, but he had already prepared. Before the rain of golden light arrived, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and sighed in a low voice: "Field: Absolute Zero. ”
The translucent sphere expanded in all directions, and instantly arrived at the golden light that shot out, but these fast-moving golden lights immediately stopped after entering the translucent sphere, and all of them were magically fixed in the cool air, and then the translucent sphere "swallowed" the monks who were reciting scriptures around like water, condensing their voices, movements, and even expressions in the translucent realm.
Abbot Stephan, who stood under the idol, waved his scepter and shouted, "Pray the Lord to keep us from temptation!
The golden scepter emitted a pillar of pure white light like a plasma cannon, shooting directly at Cheng Mo, but after encountering the "Absolute Zero Domain", the pure white pillar of light completely stalled, but the white pillar of light also resisted Cheng Mo's translucent realm advance.
Cheng Mo sneered: "You vainly claim the name of God, destroy the wisdom of the wise, and destroy the wisdom of the wise, God will not tell you to make the wisdom of this world become foolish! I have come to take back your authority. ”
As he spoke, Cheng Mo floated in mid-air and walked into the Sanctuary, and the translucent Absolute Zero Realm followed him, pressing Dean Stefan's pillar of light back. Doing a full set of acts, Cheng Mo did not forget his control skills, and opened the snow-white ice crystal wings behind his back, and the lifelike ice and snow wings emitted brilliant light chips under the sunlight that happened to be projected from the glass window.
At this moment, Cheng Mo was like a god who came into the world.
The monks, who had not yet been swallowed by the Absolute Zero Realm, looked panicked, and they chanted the scriptures even louder, like a cry of despair.
Watching the translucent orb of light approach, Abbot Stefan clenched his scepter and shouted, "Full of lies!
"Let me go to Hellfire, repent, Unclean!" Cheng Mo shone with a golden glow like the sun, and he slowly walked into the sanctuary, the wind blowing in all directions, and all the scriptures on the table were blown away, and Abbot Stefan stood unsteadily, and leaned back.
The white pillar of light was extinguished, and the entire sanctuary was controlled by Cheng Mo's absolute zero realm, the scriptures that had not yet fallen in mid-air, the flames that burned around the walls, the sunlight that shone through the windows, the cockroaches crawling in the corners, and the rector Stefan leaning back, even all the voices, everything was immobilized in the translucent ball of light.
Cheng Mo flicked his finger at the sculptural Dean Stephen, and Dean Stephan shattered into ice and collapsed under the statue of the Creator.
As the ice hit the ground, a golden Ouroboros ring fell from Dean Stefan's hand, and Cheng Mo raised his hand and sucked the Ouroboros ring into his palm.
Cheng Mo turned to the leg-eaters Collison and Aachen outside the realm and said, "Get out of the way!" Then he put away the realm, and the time in the sanctuary began to flow again, the golden light shot towards the entrance of the sanctuary, the monks began to breathe, the cockroaches in the corner of the wall quickly crawled towards the brick cracks, the flames began to beat lively, and the books also fell to the ground.
Floating in mid-air, Cheng Mo, with snow-white wings, turned around and looked down at the first monk on the left, and asked solemnly, "Are you willing to take refuge in the true Holy Lord!"
The monk's eyes, who had just been able to move, were very confused, and he said hesitantly in the face of Cheng Mo's questioning: "I.... I ....."
Cheng Mo didn't wait for the monk to think about it clearly, and said coldly: "Your sin is irreparable!" As soon as the words fell, Cheng Mo snapped his fingers, and the monk also turned into fragments of ice.......
———————————————————————————
When Aso came in, there were only about a dozen monks left in the temple, and Aso looked at the monks who were cleaning the temple, and they put the ice cubes that could see the flesh and bones clearly on a wooden screen, and then they didn't know where to carry them.
"What are you trying to do here?" Aso sneered, "Do you really think that by controlling these NPCs, you can pose a threat to the stargate?"
Cheng Mo glanced at Aso Daikichi and said noncommittally: "Ants also have the use of ants. ”
"Okay, okay, but this is different from what I thought, I thought we were lurking in the monastery, waiting for the people of the Star Gate to summon Alkan, and secretly launch a fatal blow when they attacked Alkang....." Aso shrugged his shoulders, "but you ..... now." I really don't understand what you're trying to do?"
"I've already asked clearly, and I won't delay the festival. Cheng Mo said lightly.
"But it's not necessary?" said Aso, confused.
Cheng Mo didn't answer, just said: "Send one to watch in the monastery, and the others can set the activation position, and they can go offline first." ”
"If you don't tell me the reason, I won't cooperate with you so obediently!" Aso Daikichi sat down on the monks' desks and said with his legs crossed.
Cheng Mo said quietly: "In order to save those who have been slandered as witches." I can't watch them burn to death!"
Aso Daikichi was stunned for a moment, then leaned back with a smile, he raised his hand and pointed at Cheng Mo and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a sympathetic person.....! Oh my God, I didn't expect that, Mr. Lin. ”
"It's not funny at all, Mr. Aso, they are just NPCs to you, but they are no different from people to me. Cheng Mo pretended to be a little angry and said.
"Alright, Alright, Monsieur Mary, I hope nothing goes wrong with the festival, and if you can't summon Alcon, it will be funny! May your merciful heart make you reap the rewards of this night..... See you in the evening!" Aso began to roll off the line, colored DNA spirals around his feet.
"Don't forget to inform your people. Cheng Mo advised again.
Aso Dakichi smiled "haha", winked at Cheng Mo and said, "Don't worry! I'm okay here, you just need to deal with your NPC army." ”

December 24, 2020 at 2:00 p.m.
On the Strasbourg highway on the border between Germany and France, an old Volkswagen Polo seemed to have broken down on the side of the road, and the clown Sith wearing a Santa Claus costume and carrying a red burlap bag on his back was waving and shouting with a red warning sign.
However, all the cars seemed to be rushing home for Christmas, speeding past him, and none of the cars stopped to look at him.
The clown Sith was not in a hurry, so he tirelessly sang while waving a triangular warning sign on the emergency lane, perhaps his enthusiasm and persistence touched the passers-by, a silver-gray sign rushed past him, but soon slowly fell a little in front of him along the emergency lane.
The window of the cab of Sign 307 rolled down, sticking out the head of a girl who looked like a sign, and she asked loudly, "Mr. Santa Claus, what's wrong with you?"
The clown Sith put down the warning triangle in his hand and said helplessly: "Oh, as you can see, my reindeer has run away, my sleigh has broken, and oh my god, I have to go to Paris tonight to climb the chimney and give gifts to the children....."
"Why didn't you call for help?"
"I'm Santa Claus, how can Santa Claus use a cell phone! Besides, it's Christmas Eve, even if I call the towing company, no one will pay attention to me!" said the Clown Sith walked towards the silver sign 307, he unceremoniously lay by the window, the woman in the driver's seat was startled, and immediately shrank inside, the Clown Sith looked inside, and the co-pilot and a man were staring at him with a frown and some dissatisfaction.
Sith the Clown waved at the man and grinned, "Hey, two, can you give a poor Santa a hitchhike?" ”
