Loen North, Ammantha Mountain Range, Serenity Church outside.
After discovering that most of the High Sequence Beyonder of Church of Evernight were gradually withdrawn here, most of the Saint and Angel of Feysac and Feynapotter turned to launch a fierce attack on this church called "Holy Cathedral".
Under the deep night sky, streaks of Flame Spear flew across the black velvet-like curtain and flew towards the Gothic spire of the church, but their traces were wiped away before they even landed; on the ground, various weird plants grew crazily, absorbing all the vitality around them, and in an instant they were shrouded in deep black and disappeared quietly.
Next to Chasm in front of the church, a huge tree seemed to have been poured with oil, and its surface was covered with black viscous liquid. It was constantly squirming. Its branches were composed of strange arms with eyes and mouths.
These arms stretched out rapidly, some approached the Church of Evernight Saints who were guarding Serenity Church from the ground, some pointed to the sky, as if praying, and some simply smashed directly towards the bell tower of the church.
Boom——
A crisp sound spread, and a shield composed of faint morning light appeared between the dark arm and the church. It blocked the attack of "Abomination" Suah. It seemed to be crumbling, but it never broke.
If this Abomination had not learned before the war that Church of Evernight had mastered an Sealed Artifact with the long-lost "Glory" characteristic of God of War Church, one would almost have thought that God of War Church Angel, who was currently in the same camp, was blocking him.
Seeing that the strong attack was ineffective, the cracks on all the arms of this weird tree opened like a bloody mouth, and let out a piercing Spirit Body roar.
This "curse" that can bypass the obstacles of reality bypasses the defense composed of Grade 0 Sealed Artifact and penetrates into the interior of Serenity Church, causing those Demigod who have not yet reached the Angel level to stiffen their bodies and tremble in their souls.
The invisible barrier has inevitably changed and seems to be destroyed from within.
On the other side of Serenity Church, Daly Simone, who has become "Undying", is dressed in a black robe, surrounded by the death that Underworld has penetrated into reality. Aura, high above her head, a Bronze Gate door covered with mysterious patterns was open. Countless Underworld creatures inside surged out and penetrated into the pale but impossible to see through the mist in front of her.
There were many shadows in the mist, and there seemed to be many figures hidden inside.
This is War Fog of a certain "War Bishop".
Just when Daly was about to use the Underworld creature to consume this mist and reveal the Beyonder hidden inside, a spear composed of cyan flames penetrated the mist at an extremely fast speed and flew towards her.
The spear pointed directly at her weak point when summoning Underworld Gate, making her feel like she couldn't dodge it no matter what.
Boom——
The spear landed in front of Daly, and the huge explosion swallowed up several strange Underworld creatures, but did not cause any damage to Daly.
That "War Bishop" seems to be stuck in some kind of Misfortune.
Daly A black shadow suddenly appeared next to him. He had black hair and gray eyes. His windbreaker was in tatters. His top hat had flown to nowhere, revealing his hairline that was tilted back.
"Dunn?" Daly shouted in surprise, "Holy Cathedral What's the situation at the front entrance?"
"Lady Arianna is there."
Dunn replied softly, his eyes locked on "War Bishop" who was accidentally exposed due to throwing a spear, his eyes turned deep black, and he was instantly pulled into a deep dream.
Holy Cathedral main entrance, Ascetic who was just succeeded by Church of Evernight Pope Dabomachie used Sealed Artifact to escape Arianna stepped out of the church and immediately received the attention of "Glory" and "Barren Matriarch". The silver-white sword blade instantly appeared in his body, and the weeds under his feet seemed to have a life of their own. He suddenly pierced his bare feet and sucked the blood of this Angel.
But Silver Rapier seemed to be slashed at an invisible phantom, and the plant with its own life also found itself in vain.
The two Angel have entered a hidden world at some point.
In the night sky above their heads, Crimson Moon was huge and holy. The ground under their feet and the church in front of them all turned dark, as if they had lost all other colors.
This is the world of red and black, the secret world of "Servant of Concealment" Arianna.
The two Angel immediately understood their situation. Wearing silver armor, the giant "Glory" held up Sword of Dawn high, causing orange Red Light to rise around them. Blade Storm made of awns; "Barren Matriarch" who looked petite but exuded maternal glory next to him inserted the thick wooden scepter in his hand into the ground. The surrounding false vegetation immediately turned yellow, and all vitality was destroyed.
They want to use brute force to destroy this hidden world and quickly return to reality.
But the next second, the entire illusory and strange world collapsed from the outside, and two Angel, belonging to God of War Church and Church of the Earth Mother, reappeared in front of Serenity Church.
Regardless of looking for traces of Arianna, the two of them raised their heads in response, looking southward through a distance of hundreds of kilometers to Backlund.
The deep night covering Winter County where Serenity Church is located is invaded by the orange-red dusk in that direction, forming a strange sky phenomenon of Evernight on one side and dim on the other.
The invisible impact made all Beyonder present feel fear in their hearts, and they all stopped attacking as if they were bathed in a tiring light.
Only Suah's entire giant tree was covered with an invisible barrier, and hundreds of weird arms were flapping constantly, still trying to invade Serenity Church.
Backlund is on the outskirts of the city, close to West Borough.
The windbreaker on Leonard Mitchell had long been burned by the flames, and the shirt inside was in tatters, exposing his charred skin. His handsome face was covered in blood, and his teeth were protruding and sharp. The Nature Spirit lodged above him had long been consumed.
Next to him was a woman wearing Loen officer uniform. Her long black hair was messy and draped behind her back, and her round face was full of exhaustion.
This is the royal Demigod, "Imperative Mage" Georgina Augustus.
What the two faced was a Intis military member "Iron-Blooded Knight" and a total of ten Sequence 5's Beyonder under his command.
Some of them have died in the hands of the powerful Spirit Body controlled by Leonard. Georgina also used "Execution" to kill several people, but the rest can still form a team and provide corresponding support to their captain.
Such confrontations occurred on every piece of land in the outskirts of Backlund, the coalition forces of Feynapotter, Feysac and Intis, and Earth Mother, God of Combat, Beyonder of Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun have an absolute numerical advantage, and Church of Storms who returned from Bayam and other colonies Beyonder and the military Demigod were blocked again and were unable to join the battle in time, which only widened the gap in numbers.
I'm afraid the royal family, the military and the church can't hold on for long... Seeing the figures that had retreated to the distance approaching quickly, Leonard clenched the "Word of the Sea" in his hand.
Suddenly, the old voice of Pallez came from his mind:
"Look to the sky!"
He felt something and looked up. Georgina beside him and Iron-Blooded Knight in front of him all made the same move.
In the sky above the heads of several people, the orange-red dusk in the northwest mixed with the deep night in the east, as brilliant as fire.
According to the previous "popular science" of Old Man, he already knew that the Strange Phenomenon above his head was not caused by the collision of the forces of Angel, but the projection of the divine battle taking place in Astral World at this moment on Physical World. This meant that the "God of Combat" of the Feysac Empire had already felt that the time had come to deal a serious blow to the believers, and Evernight Goddess, whose "anchor" was no longer stable, took action!
In Astral World, which is separated from reality and Spirit World, there is an endless deep darkness covered with Moon Flower, Night-Scented Herb and other plants.
But part of it has been shrouded in orange-red light, dyed with the color of dusk, and the flowers and plants inside are quickly withering and withering.
The light quickly occupied half of the darkness and continued to spread deeper. At the boundary of dusk, a figure like a mountain walked slowly. He was wearing silver armor full of dilapidation. Only the orange-red eyes were exposed above his face. The heavy sword in his hand naturally drooped. The tip of the sword scratched the ground with withered plants, giving the dark space a color of decay.
In the direction he was heading, in the deep night, the same huge figure appeared floating. This is a woman wearing a long dress with a night background and dotted with countless bright stars, but in addition to her normal limbs, she has two arms covered with dark short hair between her ribs and waist. Two of these six arms hold a crimson Moon, two hold a black scythe, one holds a golden bird-shaped ornament, and the last one is empty.
As soon as He appeared, the dusk that eroded the darkness around him came to a standstill, and was stopped by the sudden appearance of pale flames, and even had a tendency to be swallowed back.
In this regard, God of Combat, who invaded the Evernight Goddess Kingdom, was not surprised. He dragged the heavy sword that kept popping out the morning light, and began to charge towards the six-armed, two-legged Goddess holding a sickle. The orange Red Light glow behind him surged to boost him.
At the same time, on the side of Two Gods, Night-Scented Herb and Moon Flower on the ground suddenly grew rapidly, and instantly became like a virgin forest, covering half of the sky.
The dusk light carefully bypassed the forest, and also bypassed a plump woman who was as tall as a mountain peak walking out of the depths. Her dress was floating, and she was holding an illusory baby in her arms. She followed God of Combat and flew towards Evernight Goddess.
The moment "Angel of Time" Amon appeared, Angel called out his own Mirror Person in his heart.
King of Angel had no good intentions and might wait for their arrival at Giant King’s Court. Angel had already expected it. After all, the other party frequently revealed information and directed the two to find "Dark Angel". It was not to help them rescue City of Silver. It must have its own purpose.
But now the situation is clear. He has the same purpose as "True Creator". They are both controlled by the evil spirit Dark Angel. "Blasphemy Slate" makes God feel troublesome, and it is the first slate from "Chaos Sea".
Watching the sky gradually getting stronger as the surrounding shadows continue to disintegrate, a depraved and evil atmosphere emerges, which seems to trigger the giant hand of the gods to descend at any time. Looking at the smile on the corner of the mouth, as if everything is under control, reaching out to press the monocle Amon, Angel summoned the projection of "Salinger’s Blood Banner" again from Mirror World, held the cold hilt of "Sword of Glory", and let invisible colorless flames, gray-yellow death mist and morning light appear beside him.
She didn't know why Amon wanted to rob "Blasphemy Slate" that was formed from the Chaos Sea and had nothing to do with his Pathway, but as long as this King of Angel wanted to do something, Angel would not let him succeed easily.
Behind her, Klein, who was a little nervous when he saw the monocle, almost got directly into History Void, quickly waved the "Staff of the Stars" in his hand, showing the Arianna he had seen before. The ability caused Colin, Lovia and Derrick, who should not be participating in the current battle at all, to enter a "secret" state and disappear from the hall of Giant King's residence, which was still surrounded by a few shadows.
Then, Klein quickly recited Evernight Goddess's Honorific Name in his heart, and at the same time reached out to grab it in the air.
He wants to summon the Divine Descent Vessel of God, and the Historical Projection of "Mother of the Sky".
When Klein acted, Angel holding "Sword of Glory" had already gone out of Blade Storm "Teleportation" composed of Flames of Destruction. With the help of "Harvest" ability explodes in Amon's body, and as long as it hits, regardless of whether the person in front of him is the main body or not, this attack can rely on the connection between the clones to kill all the Amon clones around him and at the same time damage his main body.
But this flame that could destroy everything erupted inside the gradually forming and expanding giant hand above, igniting its increasingly rich aura of depravity and turning it into a black torch.
This is a Error.
When the hand of "True Creator" was weakened by Black Flame, Amon's right hand had been put down from the monocle, reaching for the gray-white stone slab, and was about to use "Stealing" to capture it.
At this time, Mirror Person, whom Angel had been calling, finally received a response:
"I'm here."
"Send 'Blasphemy Slate' into Mirror World!"
she yelled inwardly.
The stone slab with all the Pathway Potion formulas and rituals engraved on it disappeared from reality in an instant.
Klein, who had just pulled the dull-faced hooded lady out of history, and Amon, who had a smile on his face, were stunned for a moment by this turn of events. The latter immediately turned his attention to Angel, and the hand that was going to grab Blasphemy Slate reached out to her.
Angel's ability to control diseases and Frost were immediately stolen from her mind, along with her consecutive thoughts of attacking in a queue, which made her stand there for a moment, holding a flag in one hand and a sword in the other, looking around blankly.
But the thing about Luck is that her ability to control Mirror World was not stolen, otherwise the piece of Blasphemy Slate that was sent in would immediately fall back to where it was.
Luck...Angel had a thought and no longer paid attention to the giant shadow hand above his head that attracted the attention of "True Creator" and made him qualified to descend from the gods. Instead, he waved the Salinger’s Blood Banner in his hand, pointed directly at the interesting and smiling Amon, and commanded the invisible and colorless flames to gather and rush towards him like ocean waves.
She herself used "Flaming Jump" to appear behind Amon first. The Bone Sword formed from the remains of God of Glory, which had been lingering next to Chernobyl for thousands of years, went in and out of King of Angel countless times in an instant, almost turning him into a sieve.
But all the attacks were like passing through the air and did not cause any damage to Amon who was standing there.
He seems to be using some kind of Error again.
At this moment, the "Mother of the Sky" that Klein had just summoned cast its empty gaze at Angel behind Amon. The figure of the latter holding the flag and Bone Sword disappeared little by little as if erased by an eraser.
But the next second, the real Angel was outlined again.
Mother of the Sky, whose ownership was stolen by Amon at some point, is secretly just a mirror projection of her.
This, I am simply sending him helpers... Klein, who was about to summon Reinette's projection, stopped moving.
He guessed that Goddess did not respond to him. The reason why the god descended into the container was probably because the war between gods outside was at a critical moment. Otherwise, Amon would not have dared to steal "Mother of the Sky" no matter what.
It seemed that Stealing had reached his idea. Amon, who was wearing a pointed hat, turned his head and smiled at him.
This smile made Klein, who had been tricked by Adam and Amon, tremble in his heart. He was about to think about it, but he was exposed in front of Angel. I also wanted to return to Sefirah Castle, and when I was upgrading my status to fight against this King of Angel, the giant shadow hand above the few people finally dispersed the black flames on their bodies, and an extremely evil and depraved aura came out.
"True Creator" used this hand to send part of his power to Giant King’s Court.
Amon's hand reaching for the monocle froze. Klein, who straightened up and was about to return to Sefirah Castle, was stunned. The projection of "Mother of the Sky" that had changed hands several times was simply shrouded by the shadow under his feet, and the whole thing turned into a shadow with no specific image, only the outline of the shadow.
Angel, who had escaped the secret of "Mother of the Sky" and was about to use the ability of "Catastrophe" to summon meteorites to strike indiscriminately, was enveloped by this aura and immediately found that his ability to control "Mirror World" had become weak, and his connection with Mirror Person had also been greatly reduced.
This power seemed to restrain me, whether it was "connection" or cooperation with Mirror Person... As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, the piece of "Blasphemy Slate" hidden in Mirror World returned to reality with a sharp sound of broken glass, returning under the huge Dark Angel throne.
That is where Amon is. He would rather use "Error" to avoid various attacks than leave the location!
At this moment, the giant shadow hand melted into a huge figure hanging upside down. Without any movement from him, the gray-white stone slab that reappeared jumped up from the ground and flew towards him quickly.
This is the natural advantage of True Creator formed by the negative emotions of Sastiel who once took charge of "Blasphemy Slate" fused with "Hanged Man" Pathway!
Seeing this scene, Amon smiled unsurprisingly. He raised his right hand and finally touched his monocle. The surface of the crystal-ground lens immediately became dark, and an ocean of all colors appeared inside.
Angel immediately judged from this familiar breath that it belonged to "Chaos Sea", but it was not the power of Sefirah, just a wisp of its breath.
Chaos Sea, Amon... Lightning flashed in Angel's mind, and he remembered the Amon clone he had seen beside the pit deep in Chernobyl. He claimed to have gone deep into the Chaos Sea and was contaminated.
That clone was lying. He didn't really come into contact with the Chaos Sea. He just did some research on the edge of the dangerous Sefirah. Stealing took a breath and returned to the main body, leaving it for use at this time!
Attracted by this breath, Blasphemy Slate, which was originally running towards "Hanged Man", stopped in the air with a buzzing sound, and then turned around and turned towards Amon, as if it was throwing itself into the arms of a familiar person.
Oops... Angel did not hesitate to "Flaming Jump" and appeared between Amon and Blasphemy Slate, activating his own "City of Calamity" power and letting this breath of destruction pass through Mirror World and appear in Giant King’s Court.
This effectively blocked the trace of "Chaos Sea" released by Amon and stopped Blasphemy Slate in the air.
If the other party released the real power of Sefirah, she would not dare to do this at all, but according to this King of Angel's cautious character, Angel judged that it was impossible for him to really come into contact with "Chaos Sea", otherwise He wouldn't have to instruct Angel and Klein to deal with "Dark Angel", he could just take away Blasphemy Slate by himself.
"Tsk..."
The smile on Amon's face faded, and he adjusted his monocle to let all the breath go away. Only the lens with the shadow of the deep ocean returned to normal, and he reached out to grab Angel again.
His target is the item blocked by Angel.
"Steal!"
King of Angel, who owned "Marauder" Uniqueness and three copies of Sequence 1 Characteristic, took action personally. "Blasphemy Slate", who was confused by Angel's breath of Sefirah, flashed a faint light and disappeared in front of her. When he reappeared, he had...
... came to the shadow of Hanged Man formed by "True Creator".
This "Hanged Man" did not hesitate to let its figure surge, swallowing up the gray-white stone slab. The evil and depraved aura instantly converged, as if it was using all its strength to contain and control "Blasphemy Slate", and had no time to think about it.
A delicate vanity mirror appeared in Amon's hand. Vortex, which seemed to hold all the colors on the mirror surface, faded away, and a wisp of crimson aura hit the mirror surface, seeming to escape from it.
That was the mirror where Angel and Mirror Person sealed the aura of "Mother Goddess of Depravity". It was thrown out from Mirror World together with the first piece of "Blasphemy Slate", and under the deliberate control of Angel, it successfully replaced Blasphemy Slate and fell into the hands of Amon.
Almost at the same time, the violent lightning over Forsaken Land of the Gods subsided, and the everlasting darkness temporarily receded, and a huge Crimson Moon appeared above the heads of the few survivors.
The light on its surface flashes continuously, forming eye-like wrinkles, and quietly turns to the position of Giant King’s Court.
It sensed its own aura and set its sights here, but found nothing.
A few seconds later, dark Sun once again occupied the entire sky, and lightning flashed as usual, as if nothing had happened.
Angel and Klein, who were watching everything happening, slowly looked at Amon, who was holding the dressing mirror in his hand. The latter showed surprise for the first time in front of them, and the smile froze on his face.
The next second, he turned around without hesitation, used the "Door Opening" ability that he had stolen at some point to open an illusory hole in the exit door of Giant King’s Court, got in and disappeared.
The shadow of Hanged Man floating in the air also completely enveloped "Blasphemy Slate". A look that seemed to come from an infinite height, containing a crazy and evil look, stayed on Angel and Klein for a moment, making them think deep in their hearts that they did not dare to fight against it.
Then, the shadow figure completely dissipated in the air, Giant King’s Court orange-red dusk light shone on Earth Mother, and Dark Angel tranquility returned to the hall where the evil spirit was sleeping.
A ball of Distortion's flesh and blood fell from the air and landed in front of Angel.
That was the seed planted by "True Creator" in Klein, and it was the culprit that attracted the power of this evil god. But at this time, it was emitting a dark light, and it seemed that some characteristics were about to be released.
Without any further prompting, the two of them knew that this was some kind of Beyonder Characteristic left by the "True Creator", which was his reward for getting "Blasphemy Slate".
It's like giving alms... Although this thought flashed through his mind, Angel still picked it up quickly and put it into Mirror World temporarily before processing it later.
The gift from one True God is nothing short of great.
After doing all this, she looked at Klein who had relaxed her whole body with some sadness, and showed a smile.
Although "Blasphemy Slate" was obtained by the evil god they had offended many times, at least it did not fall into the hands of brothers Amon Adam.
Although "Dark Angel" Sastiel is just an evil spirit, it was successfully eliminated by them. Giant King’s Court is no longer blocked by them, and the door to the outside world is right in front of them.
The three City of Silver and Saint were all prepared to sacrifice before, but none of them suffered any loss, which can be regarded as the best result.
By the way, Derrick and the others...Angel then discovered the reason for the emptiness in his heart and reminded:
"Let Mr. 'Sun' and the others be released."
Before he finished speaking, the "Star Staff" in Klein's hand flickered and disappeared because the summoning time reached the limit. "Chief" Colin was holding two swords and his armor had some traces of holy light burns. Lovia, the silver knight evil spirit, had not yet completely recovered from the body. Derrick, who looked a little excited, also appeared in front of the two of them.
Finding that all the shadows around him had disappeared, the giant hand above his head and Amon at the door were nowhere to be seen, Colin Iliad looked at Angel as if confirming, and asked:
"Is it all over?"
Angel nodded and said:
"Although the result is not perfect,... today's battle is over."
Following her words, Lovia's gray eyes slowly scanned the surrounding hall with countless traces of battles, and finally landed on the gray-blue Double Door behind the huge throne, and his expression changed uncontrollably.
The same expression also appeared on the faces of the other two City of Silver residents. They looked at each other as if to confirm, and finally looked at Angel, as if waiting for the final order.
"Go and see the outside world."
Angel smiled and moved away, standing next to Klein.
Bang, Colin dropped the long sword in his hand, walked around the throne, and took the lead to walk towards the door with a dusk scene, followed by Lovia and Derrick.
Arriving in front of the door, Colin stood for a moment, bent down and pressed his hands on both sides of the door. With his muscles pumping, he pushed hard.
"I can't push it anymore. Come together."
A smile appeared on his scarred face, he looked around and said.
Lovia pressed on the door on the left, and Derrick on the right. The three of them shouted slogans like children and worked together to push open the door that had been closed for thousands of years.
In the crack of the door, a golden sunlight that was different from Giant King’s Court's solidified dusk light shone on Colin's face, causing him to subconsciously squint his eyes, then forcefully opened them and looked outside.
It was the golden sea, the surging waves, and...
City of Silver has been looking forward to the light for two thousand five hundred and eighty-four years.
In the Kingdom of God, which is filled with flowers and plants so exaggerated that they reach the sky, on the dividing line between dusk and darkness, the heavy sword of Twilight Giant and the giant scythe of the humanoid demon wolf intersect in the air, as if frozen.
Whoa, Evernight Goddess took back the sickle, and the heavy sword fell down and hit the ground with a dull sound.
Also rang out were the doubtful voices of God of Combat Badheil and Affliction:
"Li, Li, Si?"
He did not look at the enemy in front, but turned his head and looked behind him, looking at Earth Mother holding the illusory baby in one hand and holding the huge Wooden Staff in the other.
One end of this Wooden Staff penetrated the solid armor from his back, pierced into his divine body, and was frantically sucking the life of God.
At this moment, Bardhiel understood everything and knew that the plan he had been planning for thousands of years to use mother and son to jointly deal with Evernight Goddess was simply impossible to realize, because his mother, Earth Mother Omebella, had long been replaced by another God.
That was Lilith, the ancestor of Sanguine who died in Second Epoch.
Evernight Goddess deliberately concealed the "weakness", the mortal war went extremely smoothly, Church of Evernight Angel retreated Holy Cathedral gave way to the Backlund defense line, and even Demoness blocked the advancement of the front several times Angel suddenly disappeared. It turned out to be a conspiracy to deceive God of Combat and lure him into taking the initiative to enter the opponent's kingdom to launch a divine war.
Just when he figured this out, Evernight Goddess, who was wearing a long dress dotted with stars, had a female human body shape, and magic wolf arms, chuckled, raised the bird-shaped ornament in his hand, and inserted it into the only opening on God of Combat's mask.
At the same time, He threw the crimson Moon in his hand towards Earth Mother Lilith.
This Moon Pathway and Uniqueness returned to its original owner.
Watching the body of Twilight Giant, who was as high as a mountain, collapse. Groups of light representing Beyonder Characteristic penetrated the darkness and returned to reality, falling like meteorites all over the world. The plump lady holding a false baby in her arms and holding Crimson Moon was about to leave. Evernight Goddess asked in a tone as gentle as a lullaby:
"Is everything still normal?"
Lilith slowly turned around, nodded slightly, without saying a word, and then the figure disappeared deep into the giant tree like a virgin forest.
Those overgrown Night-Scented Herb and Moon Flower were immediately covered by the deep darkness, leaving only Goddess standing in the darkness, looking at the disappearing back of Lilith with indifferent eyes.
Deep in the Berserk Sea, on an uninhabited island.
Wearing a pointed soft hat and a black robe, Amon was sitting by the rocks on the seaside, playing with a small dressing mirror in his hand.
He looked at Moon, which was as crimson as usual in the sky, and asked in a low voice:
"Everyone gets what they need? But how can I trust you and them? After the plan is completed, you can go back on it at any time, but there is nothing I can do."
After a moment, he chuckled and asked in surprise:
"You said you had a guarantee?"
PS: I won't divide it into chapters and I'll just post it right away. There won't be any tonight. I may take a day off tomorrow to sort out the outline at the end.
