Saint Viève...
Angel remembered the "Saint Viev Church" he passed by when he came to Trier last time to solve the trouble of "Mirror Person". That was Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun In Trier, the largest church besides the headquarters Sacred Heart Cathedral, Guardian Angel is the only female Angel and Saint Viève in the church.
This month, Trier was on duty, and it was Saint Bonoa of Church of Steam who was escorting the city with many secrets. As a result, Viève had more free time and was able to get here so quickly... Angel frowned slightly, feeling a little troubled for a moment.
Her and Bernadette's identities are both a bit sensitive. They should not appear in Intis, but in Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun's parish. If everything can be resolved as soon as possible and left, the official Beyonder who arrived later can only pinch his nose and pretend not to know, but now he is blocked...
In short, let's ask this Angel why she's here. If that doesn't work, take Bernadette and get into Mirror World and run away. He shouldn't dare to chase... With this thought in mind, Angel looked directly at this woman who exuded bright light and asked loudly:
"Saint Viève Your Excellency of Sun Church?"
This is not only a polite confirmation of identity, but also a question of whether the other party is coming as Blazing Sun's Angel, or whether it is a more "private" action.
As she expected, Viève nodded slightly, then floated downwards, looked at Angel and Bernadette, and said in a vague and passionate tone:
"Angelica Zaki of Church of Evernight, wanted criminal Bernadette Gustav."
In fact, I am also a wanted criminal, but He seems to value me more as the beloved of Evernight, while Bernadette has lost the cover of Roselle. In His eyes, it is just "Queen Mystic" with a reward... Angel muttered silently, nodded as confirmation, and then asked:
"What's your purpose here?"
"Follow the guidance of my Lord and cleanse the corrupted Priest and Purification believers who have been contaminated by heretics."
Viève replied in a chant-like tone.
At this time, He had landed at a height not far from Angel, and the light on his body had also converged, allowing people to see clearly His beautiful and holy face and green eyes without any emotion, which were completely different from His emotional words.
This means that "Purification" means to kill all the villagers who may be contaminated by Outer Deity, or even the entire village. They would rather kill the wrong ones than let them go... Angel's heart gradually sank to the bottom.
As for how Angel got the news and rushed here quickly, based on His words, Angel also made some guesses:
When Priest named Raymond disguised his identity and prayed to "Eternal Blazing Sun", perhaps the last trace of conscience and original faith in his heart came into play. He did not pray perfunctorily, but prayed truly and devoutly. This made "Eternal Blazing Sun" learned the status of him and Belon Village, and sent out Angel and Saint Viève who were closest and could avoid being contaminated by "Outer Deity" information.
If He had come a few minutes earlier, he might have seen me and Bernadette digging graves... She laughed secretly and said:
"We have solved the biggest trouble. The fallen Priest and the corresponding pollution have also been eliminated, but Nast Solomon left here with more... gifts of 'Great Mother' and disappeared without a trace."
"'King of the Five Seas'Nast?"
Saint Viève landed lightly in front of the two of them and asked in confusion. Angel noticed that His bare feet were vaguely exposed under His holy white robe, which were the same as Angel Arianna, another woman she had seen.
But unlike Ascetic, the moment Saint Viève's feet landed, all the dead leaves and weeds on the ground were burned away, leaving "Purification" a small space free of dirt.
"That's him, Saint Viève Your Excellency," the one who answered him was Bernadette. "He came here a month ago, claiming that he wanted to repair the ancient house and bury his father, but in fact he was secretly spreading the belief of 'Great Mother'..."
She summarized the information obtained from Priest Raymond and the two people's guesses and actions, and succinctly informed Angel of Blazing Sun.
The latter listened quietly, nodded again, and asked in confirmation:
"Do you know what 'Great Mother' stands for?"
"I know, but she doesn't know."
Angel answered before Bernadette could. She was worried that this kind of question would cause Bernadette to think deeply and cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
"That's enough," Viève nodded with satisfaction, "You don't need to intervene in the rest. The 'Purifiers' people will continue to track Nast Solomon's traces and solve other problems he left behind. Belon Village will also get a thorough Purification to eliminate any hidden dangers."
"In view of your contribution in this incident, the church will not hold you responsible for illegal entry and private handling of Priest Raymond. However, due to the special nature of your status, please leave Intis as soon as possible."
Now we are ready to expel the guest... However, even if Nast is contaminated and mentally unstable, he will definitely not commit multiple crimes in the same country. Moreover, he should have got what he needs, and there is a high probability that he has left Intis... Although Angel was a little dissatisfied in her heart, she was able to hand over the incident the End to the official Beyonder. This was the result of her discussion with Bernadette, so she did not refute, but just asked in confusion:
"How are you going to 'Purification' this village?"
Viève turned sideways and looked at the vineyards and low houses outside the forest. He looked at the villagers who walked out of their rooms curiously because the sunlight suddenly became intense. He said in an emotionless tone:
"Now that you know the true meaning of 'Great Mother', you should know what this contamination means. Everyone in this village will be given a thorough 'Purification' to avoid any leakage of contamination."
Sure enough...Angel sighed secretly and made his last effort:
"Including those villagers who don't know anything about it? Most of them have never even come into contact with Nast. Judging from the deformed baby inside the building in the forest, there are not many people who have been bewitched to become believers of 'Great Mother'."
"If this happened to Loen or among Evernight Goddess believers, what would you do? Carefully screen them one by one at the risk of missing the deeply hidden contamination, or sacrifice this small group of people for the safety of other surrounding parishes?"
Saint Viève raised his head, looked at Angel with his jewel-like green eyes, and questioned him mercilessly.
But Angel could see a hint of deeply hidden emotion in the other person's eyes.
It turns out that He was not completely overwhelmed by "divinity"...Angel Such an idea suddenly came to his mind.
She actually knows that Saint Viève's approach is the safest and most responsible. It is different from the loss of control of Beyonder and the impact of Sealed Artifact. The pollution that "Outer Deity" has penetrated into the earth It is extremely difficult to deal with it through ordinary means. Even if it is Demigod, as long as it does not reach Sequence 2, it cannot guarantee its own safety in the face of this power, let alone help other people who have become Outer Deity believers.
Of course, this does not mean that Beyonder, the official Beyonder in Low Sequence, cannot handle this kind of incident. As long as "Outer Deity" does not transmit its power into the barrier, it is a matter of pure "belief". Let ordinary "Nighthawks" and "Purifiers" deal with it, just like the "Mother Tree of Desire" believers that Angel and Klein once faced.
However, the "Great Mother" belief spread by Nast Solomon this time has a rare trace of pollution that truly originated from Outer Deity and Great Old One. This comes from the power of "Dream City" and was sent to the earth by "Mother Goddess of Depravity" at some time. Once leaked, the consequences will be disastrous.
I want Him to be merciful. I am afraid that a large part of the reason is because "the matter is none of my business." Belon Village is Intis's village, and those who bear the risk are also Intis people... Angel is analyzing his inner thoughts, and will give up his own opinions under the watchful eyes of Viève.
At this moment, Spirituality of Angel felt something and naturally looked up. The same happened to Saint Viève in front of her.
At the end of their sight, a space seemed to be Distortion ed, causing the sunlight that passed through to refract, as if the physical laws here had changed.
Then, a figure appeared in the center of Distortion space.
He is tall and handsome, with long chestnut hair and a white apron around his gray robe. He looks like Apprentice who walked out of a certain workshop.
As soon as he appeared, his blue eyes locked on the three people below, especially Bernadette Gustav, who was standing at the farthest position and also had a pair of light blue eyes.
The latter looked at his younger brother, Bornova Gustav who had become Church of Steam Angel, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"Bornova Your Excellency, I think it is enough for Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun to handle this matter."
Viève, who looked up into the sky, spoke first.
"In fact, before today, Ms. Bernadette and the beloved of Evernight notified me in advance and reported this matter. Although this is not a formal announcement between churches, it also means that Church of Steam has jurisdiction over this matter."
Bornova, who had chestnut hair shawl and an expression as calm as a doll, also landed at the edge of the forest and spoke.
"Belon Village is not the parish of Church of Steam, and the fallen Priest and the villagers are all believers of Eternal Blazing Sun. You should not interfere in this matter."
After glancing at Angel and then at Bornova, Viève realized that the two of them were obviously standing in the same place. His expression changed slightly, but his tone remained calm.
"I have no intention of getting involved in Blazing Sun's treatment of his followers. I think Miss Angelica does the same," Bornova replied in a monotonous tone, "But for Belon Village's 'Purification', There should be a more appropriate solution... for example, gather them together and ask each believer to recite Honorific Name of Eternal Blazing Sun. If there is actual pollution, Purification. If not, you can consider centralized observation and confirm that it is harmless before releasing it."
It's very rational, but it is unacceptable. Sinner's approach is very consistent with the style of "Machinery Hivemind"... Angel's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he immediately looked at Saint Viève, who represented "Purifiers".
If she was hesitant before about whether to go against this Angel in Eternal Blazing Sun's territory, now with the support of "God of Steam and Machinery" Angel who is also preaching in Intis, her mentality is naturally completely different.
Even if we don't consider Bernadette who has "0" level Sealed Artifact, in terms of combat power at the Angel level, it's two against one. The advantage is mine...
Saint Viève also had the same idea. He was silent for a moment, whether he was weighing the pros and cons or waiting for instructions from a certain God.
Just when Angel's inner expectation gradually reached the top, this Angel nodded.
