Chapter 70: Countermeasures
After receiving Adam's answer, Amon scoffed:
"Really? I knew it. β
Adam just continued to look at Amon in front of him without saying a word. Amon wasn't waiting for Adam's words, but just looked at Adam and chuckled:
ββ¦β¦ You didn't inherit Him. β
One by one, the crows flew down from the sky and landed on Amun's shoulders. Amon turned, and all the crows spread their wings at the same time, flying towards the sky.
Under the flock of crows in the sky, Amon's figure suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving Adam alone standing in place.
Adam was silent for a moment, then spoke:
"Under the threat of the 'shadow of order' in Beckland, Leonard Mitchell eventually chose to return to the church and seek refuge from the gods."
"The parasite who dwells on him has a lot of experience, but it is this experience that puts him in danger."
His body slowly disappeared in place, and the two of them were no longer visible, leaving behind the same ruins as before, burning in flames.
β¦β¦
Klein's figure emerges from the "Traveler's Door" that has been opened by himself. After a simple divination, he stretched out his hand and pressed it into the air in front of him.
There was a bloody liquid flowing from the ground. What had previously been seen in the depths of the sewers was now on the ground, and for some reason, blood gushed upwards like blood spilling out of a broken blood vessel.
Crane reached into the fog of history, his consciousness traveling to the distant past, from which he pulled out a projection of history belonging to Medich, the Angel of War. This historical projection quickly became vivid, no longer consuming Klein's spirituality. Klein knew that now this historical projection had been taken over by Medici himself.
The bright red liquid was about to flow out of the entrance, and with Crane's movements, a red figure was pulled out.
"Your Excellency the Angel of War." Crane said to Medici, asking Medici, "I sense that there is a smell here that is closely related to the 'Red Priest' pathway. β
Medici opened his eyes, and there was a small sound on the left and right sides of his cheek, which seemed to be a festering wound that had been stitched together:
"It's His Breath......"
Medici gave Sauron and Einhorn a big mouth, and after doing all this, he turned his head, looked at Klein in front of him, and snorted:
"You're all Sequence 3 now? You're making so much progress. β
"Worthy of the Lord's favorite......"
Medici sighed simply, looked at the blood in front of him, and squinted his eyes:
"There's a distinct smell of 'red priesthood' in it. But this aura is dying, and the source here should be gone. β
"Heh, the handwriting here reminds me of an old friend who was born after death."
Klein was taken aback and failed to do a good job of language management: "You mean ......"
"Isn't it called 'Angel of War' this time? I don't care about such honorific titles, it's just that the way you want to be close always reminds me of a certain old dragon. You are the chosen one of the Lord, you can just call me. β
Medici scoffed, "If nothing else, there should be only an empty shell left here." As for the George III you are looking for, it should be long gone, and judging from the smell here, whether he is George III or not is another matter, but he should have completely gotten rid of madness. β
"The ...... out there now"
Medici sneered: "Don't think that this shadow that seems out of control is the essence of George III, no, maybe it used to be George III, but now it is not necessarily." I reckon this was a means of depriving George III of his madness, and it seems that George III is seeking something now. β
"After all, the 'Red Priest' path does not require a territory of its own, and it is not as troublesome as the Black Emperor. If he really is the old friend I imagined, according to his character, as long as he has enough troops to support him in solidifying himself, with an anchor to maintain on the eve of madness. β
In other words, all the inhabitants of Beckland presumably became pawns on his way to becoming a god. The same choice made by the goddess of the night. They threw what others thought was most important to them as a pawn, just for their own schemes. β
Seeing that Klein was suddenly stunned after hearing his words, and seemed to be a little unacceptable, Medici raised his eyebrows:
"You find it hard to accept? In that case, I advise you not to be promoted, so that Amon might as well become a god. β
ββ¦β¦ No. On the contrary, I am well aware of the plans of the gods. Klein shook his head slowly: "It's just that in this way, our actions will have to change, and what we need to deal with is not the current 'shadow of order'." β
Medici nodded, motioning for Crane to continue, wanting to hear what Crane, the junior, had to say.
"In two days, Russell will be resurrected, sucking away the three sequences belonging to the Black Emperor and returning to the divine personality. At that time, the shadow of order that now reigns over the land of Bakeland will disappear, and these two days must be the best time for George III to attract the attention of the other gods and seize what he needs. β
"Which gods are watching Beckland closely? Undoubtedly, it is the god of Fersak, the 'God of War'. With the experience of Arista Tudot, it is likely that the god of war will think that George III has lost control and is now destroying the anchor points of all the gods indiscriminately. β
"And considering the two 'conquerors' that George III needed to be promoted to the 'Red Priest', there is a high probability that he wants to attract the attention of the god of war, so as to obtain the 'conqueror' characteristics of the Einhorn family."
"And the 'conqueror' trait that belongs to the House of Sauron...... If Gavid Cecil, the emperor of Intis, was also involved in this scheme, then George III's god-making materials would have been gathered. β
"However, these two days are also the best time for us to get our hands on Rune."
"Yo." Medici sighed in surprise: "Your consciousness is so high?" Ready to follow Russell's example and usurp power and stage a coup d'Γ©tat? β
"If that's the case, then I'll have to give you a good hand and keep Rune in check. Ha, when the time comes, remember to spread the Lord's Church throughout Rune. When the time comes, I'll help you kill a river of blood, okay? β
"It's not like I'm trying to learn from Russell......" Hearing Medici's eager war criminals speak, Crane took a deep breath, "The most important thing in the battle of the gods is nothing more than the number of allies and their own anchors in the non-adjacent path. β
"Now because George III was preparing to be promoted to the 'Black Emperor', many of the people in Rune recognized him as the Emperor, so they were able to become George III's anchor."
"So, why don't we take control of the Rune Empire and recreate a 'hero' to strike at the image of George III and strike at George III's anchor?"
"That way, whatever George III wants to do, we'll be able to fight back." "For example, the disaster in Beckland is now due to George III, who took the initiative to wage war outside......
When a lie is repeated a thousand times, it becomes the truth. We boil frogs in warm water, and George III's prestige can be devastated. β
"βyou're much more insidious than you used to be. Before you, you probably wouldn't have said such a thing. But even so, I don't think you're willing to purge the die-hard royal masses yourself. β
Klein only felt speechless about Medici's words.
"And if you want to 'clean' George III's anchor by gentle means, you'll need a lot of time, at least five to ten years." Medici asked rhetorically, "And you must not forget that there is an angel and an archangel in the royal family of Rune?" β
"No, those two angels ......"
If nothing else, there are already people who are already "hunters" who have set up traps, waiting for angels to step into the arranged nets. The words of the lamp god and himself passed through his heart, and Crane said in a low tone:
"Someone will help us out."
"And there's a good chance he's already started to do it."
Who is it? Is it Him?
Medici also thought of the high-dimensional overlooker, and said casually: "You are still damaged by that thing, and the sinister things you are doing now are like learning from him." β
Hearing the name of the high-dimensional overlooker, Crane coughed violently twice.
ββ¦β¦ Ahem. Crane cleared his throat and changed the subject slightly, "Anyway, we'd better deal with the Shadow Tree here first." β
"It's made up of ...... after all The ritual of the power of the Mother Tree of Desire, it is troublesome to remove it without the power of the gods. β
"It's just burning a tree, is that hard?"
Hearing Klein's words, Medici laughed wildly:
"Although I have not yet returned to Sequence One, which symbolizes the Archangels, the Lord has given me a 'charm' to use here."
A frozen glow appeared in Medici's palm.
"Let there be light, says God."
A ray of light bloomed like a flower in Medici's hand.
It was the most beautiful ray of sunshine Klein had ever seen. It was like a frozen crystal, with a rainbow-like color floating in the unknown source of light.
No, it's a "light source".
It was from this spell that the sun shimmered, shrouded in the shadow of order, like a star twinkling in the darkness, and with Medici's movements, the meteor rose from the ground and flew backwards towards the sky.
The light gradually magnified, forming a cross shape in the sky made of countless sun-like patterns. In the center of the cross, a little bright light suddenly magnified and became as bright as a sun.
This is a blow that belongs to the gods, a talisman at the level of a true god. For the "Angel of War", who is now only in Sequence 2, it has already taken nearly half of the spirituality to drive this spell.
With Medici's announcement, the cross in the sky overlapped with the already existing sun, and both shimmered at the same time, becoming extremely bright like never before.
A beam of light broke through the shadows and the huge trees and shone down from the sky.
Under the power of the sun, the "shadow of order" that was entrenched in Beckland, with Beckland as the base, and relying on instinct to fight the giant tree, was suddenly pierced by the sun. Before he could react, there was a "hole" in his chest that was dissolved by the sun.
And under the sunlight, the "tree" that was spewing out a thick curse also burned violently, and even those curses were "purified" and "burned" under the sun.
Looking at this scene, Crane knew that this would probably be the easiest time for him to solve the divine descent ritual - under the attack of the former creator, even the rituals that were not conceived and belonged to the original dominance of the "old days" would be destroyed.
Under the sunlight, the earth seemed to have been burned and cracked into a huge crater, and an area quietly disappeared under the sunlight, and all life was destroyed in this devastating solar flame.
Medici stood in the sun with his back to the sun.
He turned slowly, and his tone was reverent:
"Praise the Lord!"
"All-knowing and all-powerful God, the Creator of all; You are the ruler of the vast astral plane; You are the master behind the Veil of Shadows! β
Behind the shadows of order and the huge trees, a huge cross sowed the light of a quiet destruction, and Medici stood under it, arms raised.
He is like a believer in the light.
- The eternal night symbolizes death, while the ancient sun brings light.
β¦β¦
"What now?"
Seeing a scarlet or pitch-black shadow flash in the sky from time to time, Audrey dodged as she headed in the direction of the church.
Most of the inhabitants have now been evacuated through the efforts of Mr. World's secret puppets, but now there is also a liquid that looks like blood and has an ominous feeling flowing between the underground shelters. It even flowed out of the shelter - some of them had collapsed.
"There's no smell of blood here...... There may be survivors in this vault! β
After determining the position, Audrey quickly climbed down the ladder, fortunately the clothes on her body were made of her own flesh and blood, and she didn't have to worry about whether it would hinder her movements.
Once she reached the door, she reached out and without hesitation let the flesh between her fingers flow out - there was still some of the flesh that had been saved over the days, and under the transformation of flesh magic, it had turned into a strong acidic occult solution, eroding a hole in the door of the vault.
Looking at the restless crowd behind the door, Audrey's eyes flickered, and she showed her night emblem, and her expression became as majestic as a dragon:
"I'm a night watchman in the Church of the Night, it's not safe here, I'll take you to the church's shelter!"
