Deep in Fourth Epoch's Trier, on the street surrounded by thick fog.
The Saints of "Machinery Hivemind" walked carefully between the black asymmetrical buildings. They all wore special glasses and obtained a certain degree of Dark Vision, but it was still difficult to see through the fog that blocked their vision and Spirituality. They could only barely recognize their companions and the nearby environment.
But even so, the buildings within their sight seemed to melt into the surrounding gloom, with only a portion of the walls splashed with blood or the walls high on the left and low on the right exposed, like a poor theatrical set.
"Be careful not to go too deep, especially the huge building. If you get close, you will die."
The leading "Alchemist" Edgar Gibson whispered to his companions, pointing to the hazy huge mountain peak deep in the mist.
Having read the corresponding documents before setting off, he knew that it was not a mountain, but a collapsed palace. During the previous cleaning operations deep into Fourth Epoch Trier, he had witnessed the palace several times due to the thin fog, and those who witnessed it often ended up losing control or going crazy.
Of course, the dangers of Fourth Epoch Trier don't stop there. On the outskirts of these abandoned streets, there is a giant shrouded in Storm, flames and smoke that keeps wandering. As long as you get within a kilometer of it, even with the blessing of God, you will be controlled by the violence in your heart, and you will either lose control or surrender to this giant and become a part of it.
In the street, vague silhouettes of people flashed by from time to time, as if they were secretly peeping at them; a faint light occasionally appeared on the surface of the broken glass on the ground, as if someone's eyes were looking from the inside out; before taking a few steps deep into the street, another "alchemist" whose body had been partially mechanically modified showed symptoms of a cold, and his mechanical parts became stiff in the joints and slow in movement.
This reminded Edgar of the church's internal description of the abandoned city:
The remains of "Four Emperors War" are the places where many Angel and even God fell.
The divine power and pollution here must be extremely complicated. When the seal became weak or a cultist tried to open the seal, the church would indeed go deep into Fourth Epoch Trier to clean it up and strengthen the weak points, but usually together with Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun carried out, sending a large number of Saint to carry Sealed Artifact into the seal... But this operation was very hasty, and there was no "Purifiers" contacting Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun, as if it was launched temporarily...
Thoughts flashed in Edgar's mind, and he had a little more doubts about this dangerous operation.
However, the order was personally issued by Guardian Angel, Saint Bonoa of Trier, and was confirmed by the Pope, and is absolutely correct.
Maybe we are just part of a big operation, and the same team has entered here from other locations... He comforted himself in his heart, and raised the Sealed Artifact that looked a bit like a porcelain bottle containing ashes, but its surface exuded the light of Purification all evil and depraved things, causing the shadows peeking at them from the corner of the street to instantly burn and turn into ashes.
"Keep moving forward and exchange Sealed Artifact after five minutes to avoid the accumulation of negative effects."
he ordered.
Deep in the underground maze of "Red Swan Castle", Angel stood at the door of the hall where Bronze Coffin and a large number of White Candle were placed, quietly watching the illusory Purple Flame emerge from the coffin.
The flames did not spread upwards, but were absorbed by the iron-black metal ring below, blending with the viscous blood and water inside the ring, as if they were boiling.
At the same time, the bloody and crazy aura inside the coffin spread more and quickly filled the entire hall, enveloped Angel and Glaide Sauron, lingering around the two of them, but more around the red-haired "War Bishop", and instead avoided Angel with some fear.
This is undoubtedly the crazy aura of the "Champagne Earl" Formonda Sauron, so it is closer to the Sauron Family ancestor who reshaped his body with the flesh and blood of family members... Angel felt the breeze formed by the crazy aura blowing past him and asked:
"Has the seal been broken?"
Glaide shook his head:
"It will take a while, this aura is not strong enough yet."
He pointed at the Bronze Coffin, the iron-black ring, the blood of the withered heart inside, and the surrounding White Candle, and continued:
"These should be the measures they took to strengthen the seal hundreds of years ago after the seal became weak and pollution leaked. White Candle represents Beyonder Creature in the underground labyrinth, with 'Hunter' Pathway as the main one. The iron-black ring means the entrance to the seal, and being pressed by Bronze Coffin symbolizes the reinforcement of the seal.
"But when it came to Vermonda's generation, when he became 'Conqueror' and wanted to go further, in order to obtain the 'Sefirah' power of Fourth Epoch Trier, he conducted corresponding research in Red Swan Castle for a long time. Not surprisingly, he was affected by Sefirah Influenced by, he forcibly entered the inside of the seal, and his body turned into what you call Calamity Giant, wandering around that abandoned city, while his spirit remained at the seal, affecting everyone in Red Swan Castle with the roar of Affliction, affecting all Sauron bloodlines.
"My descendants nourish this bloody spring with the hearts of family members who have become Beyonder from generation to generation. On the one hand, they continue to strengthen the seal. On the other hand, they use their Spirit Body to integrate into the out-of-control Formonda Sauron to neutralize his madness, control the impact on family members within a certain level, and avoid the destruction of the entire family."
Angel listened to Glaide's narration, and sighed after a moment:
"A great sacrifice."
Of course she knew that Sauron Family's behavior of strengthening the seal was mainly to prevent the blood curse from making everyone crazy like Abraham Family, but it also contributed to sealing Fourth Epoch Trier and protecting the current Trier.
"Oh, sacrifice?"
Glaide sneered and said with disdain:
"If they take advantage of the fact that the 'Weather Warlock' in the family has not been affected by Vermonda and has not yet lost control, contact Steam or Sun Church to cooperate, go deep inside the seal to kill 'Calamity Giant', and retrieve Beyonder Characteristic, why is this?
"Because I didn't want outsiders to know and was worried that Beyonder Characteristic would be taken away, I secretly hid the fact that the seal had become weak and tried to solve it myself, and finally ended up where I am now. Sauron's face was completely humiliated by them."
The Sauron Family ancestor made a few remarks about the weakness of his descendants, shook his head, looked around, nodded and said:
"That's almost it, let's go in."
As soon as He finished speaking, there was a deep roar from the depths of Bronze Coffin that seemed to come from afar.
The sound quickly spread along the complicated corridors of the maze, causing the entire Underground Area to begin to shake. The crazy and bloody aura became stronger and stronger, almost visible to the naked eye.
Even though Glaide Sauron still has the personality of "Conqueror" during his lifetime, and is now the "War Bishop" of Sequence 3, his body will inevitably tremble, and his expression will look slightly Affliction.
Glancing at him, Angel kindly persuaded:
"How about you stay here and I go down to deal with that 'Calamity Giant'?"
She was a little worried that as soon as she entered the seal, the "War Bishop" next to her would merge into Calamity Giant and become a part of the other party. That would really be the opposite of Tiangang, and the descendants would swallow up the souls of their ancestors.
Glaide chuckled lightly and replied:
"I can resist the influence of this bloodline. After all, I am the source of the bloodline. He is just my descendant. That Beyonder Characteristic originally belonged to me. And this is Sauron Family's matter. How could I not be there when Vermonda was dealt with?"
Isn't he planning to take the opportunity to snatch the "Conqueror" characteristic? Angel kept an eye on it, nodded and stopped talking.
Seeing that crazy and bloody aura becoming more and more obvious, the blood under Bronze Coffin almost surged to the ground. Glaide no longer delayed and took the lead towards the center of the hall, past the White Candle surrounding the coffin, and came to the illusory Purple Flame.
Taking this opportunity, Angel left Mirror Person outside, sneaked into Mirror World, recited Honorific Name of Fool, prayed to Klein, and told him what happened here.
Of course, judging from the last experience, after going deep into Fourth Epoch Trier, even "Fool" can't pay attention. This "notification" is just an insurance.
Then, she recited her own Honorific Name to let her "Mirror Person" know everything so that she could provide help at any time. In the City of Calamity that can connect to "Special Mirror World", Mirror Person can provide certain help, which is much stronger than Mr. "Fool".
Before knowing the identity of Klein, she did not dare to slander "Fool" like this, but now she could face the "recovering God" with a relaxed attitude.
Humph... She chuckled and returned to reality, just in time to see Glaide step onto Bronze Coffin and prepare to jump inside.
The illusory Purple Flame is the sealed entrance... Angel thought thoughtfully. When Glaide's figure quickly disappeared into the coffin, he followed suit and lay down Feather Fall, like a dying person who took the initiative to enter the coffin.
Then, her figure suddenly fell down and went deep into the deep entrance composed of flames and blood.
Angel's eyes dropped rapidly, passing through the gray mist, and landed on the edge of the wilderness, next to the floor paved with black stone tiles.
In the distance, the majestic but dilapidated huge city is hidden in the fog like War Fog, and the mountain-like palace in the center only shows a vague outline. Not far away, the giant tens of meters tall was shrouded in Storm, lightning and flames, and was moving slowly, seemingly wandering.
That is Formonda Sauron who went underground and went crazy, the former Archangel, and the "Conqueror" who is only one step away from the throne of "Red Priest".
Next to Angel, Glaide Sauron, who was wearing a windbreaker and with red hair fluttering in the hot air waves, had already stood still, his eyes focused on Vermonda. His eyes did not face the madness of Mythical Creature, and there was no enthusiasm or fear, only deep disappointment.
It was as if he was lamenting how the descendants of the incompetent family ended up in this situation.
Angel also looked around and confirmed that his position was far from the position where Mirror Person was brought to Fourth Epoch Trier last time by Sirio Sauron. It was almost at both ends of the Old Trier city.
The location of the two of them was only a few hundred meters away from "Calamity Giant", and the high-temperature air waves and the roar of lightning were very close at hand.
This made her suspect that the location after entering "Fourth Epoch Trier" corresponded one-to-one with the seal weakness of Trier in reality.
Assuming that Angel, who was still "desperate" Demoness at that time, appeared here, I am afraid that within a few seconds he would become crazy under the influence of "Calamity Giant", approach him involuntarily, and become a part of this "Conqueror".
Fortunately, I have become "Catastrophe" Demoness...Angel straightened up, puffed up his chest, and glanced at Glaide Sauron.
The latter didn't wait for her to speak, and said in a low tone:
"Let's begin to end the curse on the descendants of my family."
As he spoke, his body instantly rose up, his skin was covered with cracks, and flames surged out from within, turning him into Flame Giant.
Whoosh——
Glaide turned into a spear made of flames and flew towards "Calamity Giant" with an indomitable momentum.
Angel opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, the Flame Spear turned around and flew back again, and Glaide's somewhat confused voice came:
"Why don't you come?"
I thought you were going to duel Vermonda first... Angel sneered and reached out to grab it. The iron-black metal flagpole and the flag fluttering above appeared in her palm.
