Chapter 174 Prophecy, the Divine Infant Descends

The fourth and fifth floors of the library are off-limits, and Gaia tore open the barrier with a dagger when no one was around, and then slowly walked up the steps. The fourth and fifth floors are as empty as the library below, full of high shelves, piled with countless ancient books, and Gaia usually reads books on the fourth floor, where he can get some more meaningful information.

However, this time he didn't stay on the fourth floor for long, but walked directly up the spiral staircase, and then stood outside the transparent barrier, hesitated for a while, and still directly tore the barrier open, but when he stepped into the fifth layer of Gusu, Gaia had a strange feeling.

"You've been here many times. At this time, the old man's voice came out, and Gaia knew that his maternal grandfather had finally appeared, and this old man who had lived in isolation felt a mysterious and unfathomable when he first saw Gaia, and after this ethereal voice came out, Gaia also felt this way.

Gaia himself had guessed what level this maternal grandfather was, the strongest in the entire empire had always been considered the First Sword Saint Kailang, but the strength of Pope Fama and the Great Sage of Lankani was obviously above Kailang, and since Kailang had stepped into the ninth order, what level were these two popes.

Gaia relied on his powerful perception to lock the old man's location, but to his surprise, the entire slightly dim fifth floor of the library was completely hidden by no one's breath at all.

"I'm Gaia......" Gaia didn't hide his identity, because he knew that this Lankani who seemed to have done nothing had actually been helping him all along, if he hadn't been restricting Pope Fama in the first place, as long as Pope Fama made a move, Gaia would have been captured even if he had the ability to reach the sky.

"Oh, it's back......" The old man's words were calm but mixed with a strange tone, perhaps because of excitement or worry.

"I want to know ......" Gaia has been looking for Lankani's figure, but in this five-story library, he can't be seen at all, and the voice comes from all directions and echoes, which makes Gaia very puzzled why the old man didn't come out to see him.

"That creature of the Holy Mountain, right?" Lankani interrupted Gaia's questioning, and after a moment, said in a somewhat tired voice, "You've been away from Zachariah for more than three years, and you've probably traveled a lot. ”

"Yes. Gaia nodded. Lankani didn't seem to want to tell Gaia the answer right away, or rather didn't intend to tell Gaia, but he didn't want to refuse his request, so he had to change the subject.

Gaia didn't continue to ask, but recounted his general experience in the past three years, and it could be seen that the old man was very concerned about these.

"Then why are you coming back now, although your current strength is very strong, but that creature on the Holy Mountain ......" Lankani himself returned to the original topic.

"I can't watch Sarriv being sacrificed. Gaia said. This time the answer to Sachariah is naturally because of Nelan, she has the first artifact on her body, although Gaia is not very enthusiastic about this artifact, but he can't watch the survivors of Matu Village die like this, not to mention that he now gradually understands Nelan's mood from a village girl to a noble saint.

"She's a poor girl. Lankani let out a soft sigh, and then spoke slowly as if he was a memory, "For eight years, I have been on the fifth floor of this library, from which I can see the shores of the Holy Lake, and this girl will always appear in my eyes......"

Gaia didn't interject, because that night, Gaia understood why Sanliv always liked to think quietly on the shores of the Sacred Lake, and she should be quietly remembering alone, just as Gaia likes to go to the Sacred Lake, because the tranquility of the Sacred Lake always reminded Gaia of the peace of the village of Mattu.

"You are the granddaughter of the Pope, and you are the holy daughter of the Temple, but she is like a puppet placed at will, and she is instructed by others, and only in the dead of night will she timidly go to the lake and cry secretly...... I remember that four years ago, she threw herself into the lake and wanted to end her young but sad life, but I saved her and slowly guided her. She poured out all her depression and pain to me that day......" Lankani said with some regret.

Gaia's face was slightly bitter, because four years ago should have been the time when she was trapped in the forbidden land of the gods, even if she didn't have to explain the reason for Lankani, Gaia could guess that she must have done such a thing because of guilt.

"Why did you sacrifice her?" asked Gaia. The sacrifice of the temple has always been a very elusive ritual, and if the four temples were only to eradicate some extremely influential people by means of sacrifice, then such a ridiculous act must not have been passed down for thousands of years, so Gaia guessed that this sacrifice had other purposes.

"This ...... Only Pope Fama himself would understand that you have been to the Diangeng Sect and succeeded to the position of bishop, so you have met your grandfather?"

"Yes, I see. Gaia nodded.

"So what do you think in your heart, tell me. Lankani was more concerned about Gaia's emotional affairs, and he didn't want to talk about anything else, as if he was avoiding something himself.

"I don't know...... I hadn't seen you until I was eighteen, and if I hadn't understood my origins, we might all be strangers. And now there is suddenly an additional blood relationship, which is indeed a little difficult for me, who is used to not having relatives, just like I don't want to call you grandfather now, because in my opinion, even if there is a blood relationship and a title, there will still be no more emotions between each other. So I don't want to be pretentious...... However, I will not reject and deny these relationships. For the first time, Gaia spoke out about the inexplicable presence of so many blood relatives.

"If you can say these things to me, it already shows that you regard me as an elder, and I am very pleased, but now I can't be like Cheber Lauren, and I can't intimidate other forces like Cheber Lauren, and I can't give you the right to inherit. Lankani's words were tinged with deep sadness, perhaps self-deprecating.

Gaia was silent for a moment, he didn't hold a grudge now because of Lankani's concealment of many things, Lankani was the former Pope of the Rosa Temple, and it was impossible for him to leak the secret under the constraints of the contract, and he also had a glimmer of hope for the temple, so Gaia could understand the old man's feelings.

"Gaia, there are a few books on the twentieth compartment in the twelfth row, I think you should be interested, read carefully, I'm a little tired......" Lankani's voice looked tired from the beginning, and it had faded by the time he said this.

Gaia searched around the shelves again, and asked Darkey to use his sentience to probe, but he still couldn't find Lankani, and finally he had to give up and began to find the books that Lankani hinted at him.

Thick dust piled up on it, and no one had read these three books for some number of years, and at this time Gaia was the only one in the library on the fifth floor, and after letting Norman and Ranny play casually by himself, he leaned against the window, blew the dust away gently, and then began to flip through it.

The titles of these three books are not so eye-catching, and even after opening one of them and flipping through a dozen pages, he still didn't see anything special, but when Gaia inadvertently connected what he knew and where he had walked, he was already a little stunned, and then, Gaia's eyes never left these three books.

The three books were very thick and thick, and Gaia read them on the fifth floor for a whole day, until the next morning, Gaia closed the third book heavily, and then sat on the floor, meditating to supplement his sleep time.

After leaving the library, Gaia returned to the apartment where she had stayed with Cerene, as it was the day of the temple's invitation. When Gaia reached the apartment, Knight Shad and ten of his men were already waiting there.

Shad still performed a knightly salute in a formulaic manner, and then led a temple horse for Gaia to ride, and Gaia didn't say much, and walked towards the holy mountain under the leadership of the Templar knight.

"Do you know the prophecy?" Gaia asked, riding his horse side by side with Shad, as they walked past the platform of the Holy Mountain beneath the Holy Mountain, where a priest was praying for a pregnant woman.

"The third prophecy?" Shad didn't ignore Gaia's question, but he wondered why the alien was talking to one of his knights about the prophecy.

"Don't you know the fourth?" said Gaia.

"I don't know, and I'm not interested. Shad replied indifferently.

Gaia didn't ask any more questions, and as the Templars walked up the sacred mountain, through countless hoof gates, and finally reached the magnificent temple, after passing through the huge prayer hall that could hold hundreds of thousands of people, Shad led Gaia all the way to the inside of the temple.

Gaia still knows a little about the layout of the Temple of Rosa, and he can also see that Shad took him to the Temple of Faith, which is the place under the jurisdiction of Bishop Pandega, but Gaia knows that the chances of meeting Pandeg are not very good, and he doesn't want to act too impulsively this time.

"In front is the Great Hall of Faith, where His Holiness the Pope listens to the voices of the gods, and you need to wait a little bit. As he walked to the gate of the Temple of Faith, Shad said to Gaia.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the gate was opened by several temple guards, and Gaia naturally entered the main hall, but the others did not follow, and closed the door after Gaia entered.

Pope Fama carried Gaia on his back, and the long golden prayer robe dragged on the ground, and when he slowly turned around, it was very smoothly swinged, giving people a strange feeling.

"Sit down. Pope Fama pointed to the chair next to him, and then said to Gaia. Gaia also sat there naturally, his black eyes staring at Pope Fama with a slightly strange luster, so that Pope Fama would not be suspicious of his transformation technique.

"It's not just about being casual. Pope Fama himself sat down on the high seat and spoke.

"Prophecy is not just for humanity, your faith has angered the greatest of gods, but we need to bear the consequences of your actions. Gaia said in a completely alien tone, avoiding the Pope's questioning.

"So you already know the contents of the four prophecies?" Pope Fama was still not sure which species Gaia belonged to, but Pope Fama knew that he was probably a demigod, and that the intelligence of this creature was definitely superior to that of humans, so he was not surprised by Gaia's words.

"Well, the first three prophecies are all for humans, but the fourth prophecy is for the entire continent of Eden. Gaia said. Selene had already calculated the last two prophecies from the four parchments, but even knowing what they were didn't mean much, and they couldn't stop them.

"The Divine Child has descended, the source of the destruction of the world. Pope Fama's eyes were deep, and he slowly uttered this prophecy, and after a moment, he continued,

"The four empires are now sincerely afraid, every new life needs to be investigated by the temple, and the Tolan Empire even wantonly burns pregnant women at the stake, and all this actually does not play a role in preventing the birth of the god child in another twenty years...... After the Divine Child grows up...... He will still bring a catastrophe to the entire continent of Eden!"

Pope Fama said the third prophecy, after the Tolan Empire saw those pregnant women being executed, Gaia thought that it was the Tolan Empire that prevented the so-called divine child from coming, but Gaia felt that this was completely a foolish approach, perhaps even if all the pregnant people were forbidden or killed, it would be impossible to prevent the third prophecy from coming.

"Actually, in my opinion, you should be the messenger of divine punishment in Frye City, because you are in charge of everything. At this time, Pope Fama's sharp gaze fell on Gaia.

"Hmph, I am the future god, do you think I can be a slave of a god?" Facing the awe-inspiring gaze of Pope Fama, Gaia was even more bold, and a sentence directly dispelled Pope Fama's suspicions.

If someone else said such a thing, Pope Fama would definitely scoff, but the young man in front of him was different, Pope Fama knew that many foreign races had a long lifespan, and their different cultivation methods could allow them to successfully step into the demigod level, and even the future gods.

"That wizard, cursed the Blood Werewolf Clan, causing the Blood Werewolf to accumulate resentment for hundreds of years, and if it weren't for the Blood Werewolf's hatred of humans, I wouldn't have been able to harness them to launch an attack on Frye City. Gaia said.

"And what is your purpose?" said Pope Fama. Thirty thousand cultivators died, a quarter of the city was destroyed, thousand-year-old monsters were released, and a demonic beast master with a half-body level aura inexplicably appeared, and the incident in Frye City was not trivial!

"There's no purpose, because I don't like humans either. Gaia said coldly, after seeing the bloody night of the elves, Gaia's anger had indeed reached the extreme.

"Well, then back to the original question, why you came to Zachariah. I have to warn you, if you want to fight the Holy Mountain, even if you have the supreme position, I, the Rosa Temple, will definitely seal you in the Beast Altar!" said Pope Fama majestically.
