On a makeshift wooden platform, Nuo's preaching resonated with many listeners. In other words, those who survive the Flood will have a purer heart than others.

Those who are suspicious, cunning, or who often harbor ill will not believe in the sudden kindness of others. They didn't believe what they said, and they died in the flood as a matter of course.

In contrast, the audience here is clearly not among them. Especially after experiencing a near death, looking at the desolate city, what Nuo said is naturally particularly touching.

It's just that although Nuo's words resonated with many people, there were still people in the crowd who expressed different opinions.

"What you say does make a lot of sense, but no, maybe the gods on Mount Olympus are not all so unbearable, at least in the previous disasters, it was the goddess who sheltered me."

Emerging from the crowd, Kavi was still wearing the robes he had worn to Hestia. He bowed silently to the flame, then looked in No's direction.

"There is nothing to hide now, for in the past, as you might have guessed, the priests deceived others, deceived the gods, and deceived themselves. But when it came time to die, I finally let go of those thoughts, confessed my sins to the incarnation of ten thousand fires, and waited for her to give me the punishment I deserved. But it didn't turn out that way, and after the disaster, like every one of you, I survived. ”

With Kawei's words, dozens of people also walked out of the crowd, all of them having similar experiences to Kawei.

"Perhaps the gods may not be merciful, but not every god is indifferent to mortal calamities, and this is the case with His Highness Hestia."

With a sincere expression, Ka Wei really thought so from the bottom of his heart.

"But No, your actions remind me. The Goddess has forgiven my sins, but I should not forget it, and from this day forward, I should repay her kindness by proclaiming the name of the Holy Fire on earth. ”

A catastrophe that destroyed a civilization created two inspired saints. It's just that compared to Kino, the object of Kavi's faith is different

"Your character deserves respect, Kavi, not everyone can face their mistakes and have the courage to change. However, have you ever wondered if the sacred fire brought back by the God of Foresight of the created man was really the manifestation of the power of His Highness Hestia? ”

Stepping down from the high platform, Nou came to the unquenchable flame.

"If not. You pray to the flame, and who will answer you? ”

Although humans do not know the nature of these gods, after a long period of contact, many people with high natural inspiration can perceive that the sacred fire brought back by Prometheus does not seem to be similar to the original god-given flame. In addition, as we all know, the goddess of the stove fire is the eldest sister of the god king, will she disobey her brother's edict for the sake of mortals?

The answer is probably no, especially since No, knowing that the gods who descended to take refuge in the calamity also had an agreement with Prometheus.

"Perhaps, if not, then I am grateful for the kindness of those who saved my life, but my faith remains the same."

With a calm expression and a life and death experience, Kawei has seen his heart clearly. Faith is not easily changed, and most importantly, as a priest who once sacrificed to Hestia, he had felt the breath of the goddess in the image of the goddess countless times before the connection between the gods was broken, and now he felt it again in the ruins of this city.

The goddess has been here, not so long ago. For a believer, such plausible evidence is sufficient.

"Alright then, Kavi, I respect your beliefs."

Sighing, Nuo's heart felt a little regretful, but he still expressed his blessings to his compatriots who escaped the disaster together. Across from him, Kavi nodded at him, and then drew a flame with a fennel branch.

"I will leave here and follow in the footsteps of His Highness Hestia, and I wish you all the best in whatever your plans"

Kavi left with dozens of followers behind him. Noh didn't stop him, he just watched the other person leave with the others.

In any case, at this time, the difference in belief was not enough to evolve into a sword and a soldier, not to mention that in Nuo's impression, the goddess of the stove fire was indeed a kind god. She did not send down punishment like the god-king, nor brought the flood like the god of the sea, nor did she take Prometheus away like the sun god. So for Kawei's choice, Nuo still expressed his acceptance.

"Lord Cohen, are you also the one who survived the Lord's protection?"

Seeing off Kavi, Noh turned to look at the edge of the square. In fact, when he had just spoken, he had already noticed Cohen's arrival, and only now did he have time to greet the other party.

Mortal eyesight has its limits, and he didn't get to see the scene of Cohen and Terry fighting each other when the flood came, but that didn't stop him from recognizing each other. After all, because of teaching others swordsmanship, Cohen has a reputation in Aurora City. Seeing him coming, Nou thought he had just woken up from the city.

"I don't know."

Meeting the other party's gaze, the dream that benefited him from 10,000 years ago flashed in his mind, and Cohen shook his head slightly.

He looked at the crowd around him again, but still couldn't find a familiar figure.

"Whether it is or not, Lord Cohen, we are probably the only surviving humans in this world today."

Turning around, the city wall had long since collapsed, and there was hardly anything to be seen on the former plain and the current plateau.

"There may be new human beings, but no one knows exactly when, and the world is still dangerous, even if it is washed away by the flood. If possible, hopefully we can go all the way. ”

"Aren't you going to stay here and rebuild the city?"

Somewhat surprised, Cohen glanced at the unquenchable flame.

"This is where the gods of Olympus gave the bronze humans, but now, when they destroy the bronze humans with their own hands, then I will no longer regard them as gods."

Shaking his head, No's smile was gentle.

"Bronze humans are the names they give us, not our own, and humans are human beings and don't need to be called anything else. I will proclaim the Lord's name to every wise being all the way until we find our new home. ”

"Okay."

Looking at the other party, Cohen didn't know what to do now, he was about to nod his head, but in the next moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Very well, mortal, you are not like your kind."

"Who?"

A soft, ethereal voice rang out, echoing around this shrine, and the humans who had just passed the calamity were immediately alert, but they failed to detect anything.

The next moment, the void fluctuated, and a figure that had once made Cohen's life unforgettable slowly emerged. She was covered in bands of light and a little starlight, but this time, she didn't wear the hood that covered her face.

On the holy and perfect face, there hung a disregard for all equality in the world, and the white wings spread out behind her, and she stepped on the ground, but it seemed that she did not belong to the world.

"What's your name?"

Ignoring the others, the visitor looked directly in the direction where Nuo was.

Mortal life wasn't supposed to deserve her attention, but today there were some exceptions. Now, she wants to see if the other party's heart is really so religious.

······

Evangerine didn't come to the world for nothing, in fact, if possible, she could have stayed in her own place for 10,000 years, but recently it was a little different, because of frequent events, the angel still came out.

First of all, someone in the outside world openly stole the soul, and she had to temporarily guard the reincarnation, but there was no problem sooner or later, but when she was on duty, the beings of the third layer of the spirit world didn't know why they actually ran to the world of all souls, and they made a lot of trouble.

Although in terms of strength, no spirit life can compete with the spirit angels who hold part of the interface permissions, but due to the large number of opponents, many souls have been affected.

Of course, no one had expected Hypnos's actions before, so Lyanna, who had returned to the spirit world, did not blame her. However, in order to prevent similar things from happening again, they decided to seal the path of the first three layers of the spirit realm to the depths.

At this juncture, Lyanna needs to deal with it herself, and it is inconvenient to leave, so the other things are once again in the hands of Evanjieline.

The Goddess of the Moon told her to check if the rituals that dotted the human city still existed, and if so, to figure out how it worked. However, Asmodeus clearly did not leave such a flaw, and by the time Evangeline arrived, every inch of the ritual had already been reduced to dust, and even historical images could not be summoned.

Because the Lord of the Nine Prisons skillfully transferred part of the malice of the laws of the world to the ritual itself at the last moment. What has been destroyed by the present world, even Ryan may not be able to see its past, let alone Evangerine.

So the angel, who had once again returned in vain, was a little troubled, and she walked about the earth at will, intending to see the flame that the Lord had left for the chariot of the sun, and now it had fallen into the hands of men. It's just that when she came here, she accidentally heard Nuo's preaching.

A group of mortals from the outside world actually developed a devout belief in the Lord, which immediately attracted the attention of Evangelin, which was rare in the past. She knew that the Lord may not care about this, He just sowed some knowledge 10,000 years ago, and the faith of mankind will continue to flow, but for the angels, the life of the outside world does not know the greatness of the Lord, which is far more intolerable than the power of faith itself.

For a while, Evanjielin couldn't help but have a special idea. If she hadn't been able to find the trace of the soul thief, she had to do something, and she believed that even if Lyanna knew about it, she would definitely support her.

"What's your name?"

So she showed her form, and Evangeline said to this special mortal.

"My name is No."

With a solemn expression, Nuo replied softly.

In the face of the sudden change, Nuo's heart was only nervous for a moment, and then he let go, and even had some expectations. This strange being does not seem to be hostile, and it is due to his disparaging statements about the Olympian gods and the praise of the spirit world.

So, which side she is from, I don't even need to ask. And in front of Nuo, Evangeline also continued to ask:

"There are few things among all things that can recognize the greatness of the Lord's life, and this is what distinguishes you from them."

"But I wonder what you can do for what you say, for the sake of spreading the name of the Lord throughout the world?"

The sound was like a tune, so that the person who heard it couldn't help but let down their guard, looked at Nuo in front of him, and Evangeline quietly waited for the other party's reply.

And in front of her, No's response also made her feel very satisfied.

"I will give everything for the rest of my life, Your Highness. If my life should have been destroyed by the will of the gods of Olympus, then every day I continue to spread the glory of the Lord. ”

"Good."

The originally estranged voice carried a bit of approval, and Evangeline finally nodded, this mortal still has some merit. So she reached out and made a gesture. The next moment, a quaint astrolabe appeared in her hand.

The phantom shadows in the astrolabe correspond to the stars in the sky, but only some of them exist, and they are illusory stars that belong to the spirit world. With a flick of it, it floated in front of Nuo, emitting a faint glow.

"Follow its guidance and build a city where the stars indicate, where you and your civilization will grow and continue."

Feathers flickered slightly, and Evangerine glanced to the west.

There, the false gods who claim to rule the world dwell.

"But remember, since you can see the truth of this world and offer piety to the Lord, then stop referring to those beings as 'gods.'"

Taking the astrolabe, Nuo's heart burst with joy, he didn't expect the problem to be solved in this way, but he still had some doubts about Evangeline's last words.

He was about to say something, but beside him, another voice spoke first.

"Your Highness Evangeline, do you remember me?"

After standing aside and waiting for a long time, Cohen finally asked this sentence. Looking at the astrolabe given by the person in front of him, he seemed to see himself who was able to watch the [Civilization Slate] in the past.

But he still doesn't know why he was able to look at the slate, at least the promise in front of him, or if he was only blessed after expressing his piety.

However, Evangelin just glanced at him and didn't have any more emotion.

"Of course I remember you as the first human being created by the Lord."

The expression was calm, and the wings behind the angel were gently stirred.

"But what about you, do you believe in the Lord who created you?"

As soon as the words came out, Cohen's heart shook, and on the side, Nuo's eyes widened. The first human being created, this short sentence contained too much information for them to digest for a while.

Seeing this, Evangeline didn't say anything more, she just set her eyes on Nuo again.

She noticed the other party's previous doubts, and for a mortal who was willing to spread the glory of the Lord, she was also willing to spend a little more time.

"Speak your questions, and as a believer in the Lord in this world, I will answer your confusion."

"Your Highness, I just want to know, why can't you no longer use 'god' to refer to the existence of Mount Olympus, aren't you, also a god?"

Resisting the shock in his heart, No's afterglow glanced at Cohen, and then asked his own doubts.

And listening to his words, Evangeline smiled for the first time today.

In the past, she had heard similar mistakes more than once, but she had never corrected them because she didn't pay attention to the outside world. But since the faith of the Lord is to be spread to the world, this mistake can no longer exist.

After all, how can a false god in the outside world have the same honorific title as the Lord?

"Because it's a mistake. Although the outside life regarded me as God, I never recognized it myself, nor did the angels in the spirit world. ”

"We serve by the side of the Lord with a more devout faith than you do, for there is only one God who knows and sees all in the world, from beginning to end."

Slowly floating in the air, Evangeline looked down at the crowd at her feet.

"No, since you want to spread the name of the Lord, then remember my words: whether it is past or future, whether in heaven or on earth, the truth in this world is eternal and unchanging, and there will naturally be no two."

"So."

For the first time, Evangeline's voice was cold, so that everyone who heard it could feel her thoughts, and she didn't hide it.

She just looked in the direction of Olympus, as she did at the outside world.

"Therefore, there is no god but my lord."
