Sensing the approach of the divine Angel, even though "Salinger’s Blood Banner" was sealed, he was in a state of stress.
Its charred flag covered with a large number of blood spots kept swaying, which in turn suppressed the dark velvet aura that originally suppressed it. The aura of conquering and destroying everything instantly filled the entire space.
The steel soldiers around Corpse Mountain suddenly raised their heads, and the empty eye sockets on their helmets glowed with crimson light. They quickly lined up and gathered on the top of the mountain. The number of people was no longer the hundreds that Angel had seen with the eyes of Helene before, but thousands or tens of thousands, like an entire army!
Even Angel had complex emotions of fear, panic and admiration deep in her heart. The burning ceiling above her head pressed down like a mountain, and an invisible force came from her shoulders, making her knees tremble and her back bent. She just wanted to give up her dignity and kneel down to beg for mercy, and instinctively surrendered to Sealed Artifact in front of her.
And once she does this, it will represent complete surrender of body, consciousness and spirit, and she will completely become the puppet of "Salinger’s Blood Banner" like the steel puppets below, and become a member of the Legion who protects it.
This is the real reason why "City of Exile" Molora does not allow Beyonder above Demigod to enter:
This Sealed Artifact, code-named "0-01" and belonging to "Red Priest" Uniqueness, becomes stronger when it encounters strength. No one is allowed to retain dignity in front of it. Only surrender is the only way out.
And besides True God, who else can raise his head in front of Uniqueness, who holds the power of war and conquest?
Only Angel can.
Her neck bones creaked like rusty gears, and she slowly lifted up under the invisible pressure. Her eyes looked directly at the floating flag, with anger gushing out of her purple eyes.
I am the beloved of "City of Calamity", how can I surrender to Uniqueness who is just Pathway?
Provoked and mocked by her gaze, the tall iron-black flagpole of "0-01" suddenly jumped upwards, as if it was about to be pulled out of Corpse Mountain. The blood stains on the flag with burnt edges faded away from the dark color and became vivid.
The force that originally suppressed Angel's head and shoulders immediately reversed and turned into a pulling force. Her neck was suddenly pulled with a crisp click sound. A crack appeared in her fair skin in an instant, and blood gushed out and sprinkled on her chest.
Isn't this the pollution of "City of Calamity"... You actually used my power to deal with me!
Angel raised his hands instantly, pressed his right hand on his head that was about to leave the body, and stretched his left hand forward to hold it empty. Just like summoning the mirror image of "Salinger’s Blood Banner" from Mirror World countless times before, he grabbed the iron-black flagpole from the air and inserted it back into the mountain of corpses.
At the same time, the plague that she had spread in this enclosed space also broke out in the bodies of thousands of steel soldiers who surged up the mountain. This pathogen, which can corrode even inorganic substances and can ignore high temperatures, quickly made the originally shiny armor quickly become mottled and old, and the movable joints were stained gray-white, making it impossible to move at all.
Almost out of instinct, "0-01" began to transfer its power to its puppets, allowing them to fight the plague and regain freedom. The windless and automatic flag paused for a moment.
That's it now!
Seizing the flaw exposed by Sealed Artifact, who had no real consciousness and acted only on instinct, Angel took a step forward with the almost separated body and head. The invisible and colorless flames around her were dyed her own color by Demoness's "Flames of Destruction", and began to fight for her against the power of conquest emitted by Sealed Artifact instead of becoming a force that oppressed her.
These flames are essentially a kind of Catastrophe, but Catastrophe can be taken over and controlled by "Catastrophe" Demoness.
Snap, Angel stretched out his left hand and really grasped the flagpole that looked like it was stained black with blood.
The power that could disintegrate and completely destroy her body was instantly transmitted to her body through the flagpole, and was neutralized by the same power, followed by the breath of decay, Eternal Sleep and decay.
Angel's arms immediately became swollen, the internal tissues burst and rotted, and his body entered a state of near stagnation. His mind became cold Slowing, and his soul was about to Eternal Sleep.
This is the pollution of "River of Eternal Darkness", not the escaping smell separated by one or even several layers between "Samaritan Women's Spring" and "Dream Festival", but the real, direct pollution of Sefirah!
At this moment, "Hidden Holy Emblem" on her left wrist floated up, and the emblem belonging to Evernight Goddess on the thin metal sheet was completely hidden in the mist that alternated black and white. The two words "Underworld Daoist" The power sent into it, far beyond what was needed to seal the breath of Tudor, surged out, carrying the power of Eternal Sleep, aging, and death along Angel's arms back to the inside of "0-01".
Angel's sluggish thoughts recovered instantly. She activated the "City of Calamity" power in her body and followed the breath of "Underworld Daoist" into Sealed Artifact. Like an army breaking through the city wall, she began to sweep away the suppressed "River of Eternal Darkness" pollution.
Different from the situation where the two kinds of pollution reach a balance inside "0-01", this is a direct confrontation between Sefirah. The escaping power immediately creates a circle of darkness, depth, time and space around Angel and Blood-stained Flag. The chaotic space of Vortex, Corpse Mountain, the puppet turned into a stone statue, and even the space of Underground Mausoleum were attracted by it, kept approaching, and collapsed into the Vortex that seemed to be condensing into an origin.
This is complete destruction, and Calamity is unavoidable...Angel has come to understand that the mixed power of "City of Calamity" and "River of Eternal Darkness" will cause far more destructive damage than a single Sefirah.
But what does this have to do with me? Even if I die, I will be resurrected in Mirror World, and you will be completely destroyed...Angel The corners of her mouth slowly raised, looking contemptuously at "0-01" who was held in her hand but unwilling to give up resistance.
Clatter, the blood-stained flag buzzed in the Vortex that ended everything, like a warrior who refused to admit defeat and raised his middle finger towards the enemy.
But the next second, the flag with blackened edges drooped as if it had lost its power. In Angel's perception, the power of "River of Eternal Darkness" was suppressed by the aura of "Underworld Daoist". Having mastered "City of Calamity", she completely gained control of "0-01".
Uniqueness of "Red Priest" surrendered at the feet of "Demoness" who was in charge of Calamity.
If only it had been like this, it was so unpleasant... Angel curled his lips and restrained the power of "City of Calamity". He looked warily at the Vortex that was constantly devouring space and time, like a black hole. When it lost the power of Sefirah and dissipated, and the whole Underground Mausoleum returned to calm, he breathed a sigh of relief.
She was actually not sure whether she could be resurrected with the help of Mirror Substitution after being swallowed by this power, but she had to maintain her courage and not let the enemy see her cowardice.
Fortunately, "0-01", who had no way out, could not withstand the pressure and surrendered.
She used her left hand, which was still somewhat swollen and slowly recovering from internal corruption and aging, to insert the flagpole that had almost escaped from Corpse Mountain back into place, allowing it to continue to be sealed by this "City of Exile".
Although she became the real owner of this Sealed Artifact, Angel decided to keep it in the hands of Church of Knowledge first. After all, Angel could no longer find a suitable sealing place except in this city full of serious criminals, and she could not carry this violent character with her, which would bring war and the flag of Calamity, unless it was truly contained.
If we talk about a simple ceremony, World War triggered by my assassination of George III has won, and it should be considered completed. However, with the body of Sequence 2 "Catastrophe" Demoness containing "Red Priest" Uniqueness, it is very possible It would lose control on the spot, and either become the resurrection carrier of Alistar Tudor, or become an indescribable monster... Angel saw that it no longer caused invisible colorless flames, and did not direct the steel puppet to approach. "0-01", who seemed very well-behaved, decided to wait to take it away when he actually fought with "Primordial Demoness" Cheek.
Passing through Astral Gate, which had become shaky in the previous fight but never closed, Angel returned to the library filled with Brass Book shelves, and saw Archbishop Hella Berg standing there waiting.
The latter covered his stomach and said in a joking tone:
"I almost thought that the power to end everything was going to explode in my stomach."
"I will prevent this from happening at the last moment," Angel explained without sincerity, and then asked curiously, "If that happens, will it affect you?"
"It might make your stomach upset."
Hella Berg answered with a smile.
Really? That's the power of Sefirah... Angel cursed, her mind couldn't help flashing back to the scene just now that made her soul tremble, and instantly overwhelmed "0-01"'s final resistance spirit, Vortex swallowed everything.
She is convinced that the combination of the power of other Sefirah will definitely not achieve similar effects, at least there will be no similar reaction between the two additional Sefirah contained in "God Almighty" and "Celestial Worthy", otherwise they will gain a significant advantage in the confrontation with each other.
So "City of Calamity" and "River of Eternal Darkness" are special? They are respectively accommodated by two Pillar, but they can jump to each other as non-adjacent Pathway... This only incorporates a little Sefirah pollution. If two complete Sefirah are truly combined, for example, they form a complete "Great Old One"...
The world won't be destroyed because of this, right?
Angel After thinking about it for a while, he felt that this kind of thing was too far away from him, so he temporarily put it behind him.
Of course, she also noticed that this kind of power could be easily triggered with her own Sequence 2, which could be regarded as a "trump card" that surpassed her own Sequence.
When I pick up "Sword of Glory", wear "Pale Crown" on my head, hold "Salinger’s Blood Banner" in my hand, and add the effect of Hidden Holy Emblem, can I truly master this power of destruction and end everything, and pose a threat to "Primordial Demoness"... Thoughts flashed through her mind.
Looking at Angel, whose eyes were a little out of focus, and whose expression was indifferent and a little absent-minded, Hella Berg shook his head, took out a brass sheet the size of a coin from his robe, with an uneven surface covered with various complex patterns, and said:
"This is the Charm that records the Astral Gate just now. It can be used once and directly enter Molora Underground Mausoleum. If you want to go there next time, you don't need to come to me."
Angel took over Charm, which looked a little tingling, as if waking up from a dream, and asked curiously:
"Aren't you worried about me using it to bring others into your... um, stomach bag?"
"Then I will thank nature for its gifts."
Hella Berg put his hands back into his cuffs and answered with a smile.
That's it... Angel nodded in relief, carefully put away "Astral Gate" Charm, and was about to say goodbye when he suddenly remembered something and asked:
"Archbishop Your Excellency, if due to the situation, you need to give up everything you have now, or most of your life, what would you think about it?"
