Chapter 1008 Quick Solution (2-in-1) When Father Raymond mentioned the "Great Mother", Father Raymond's expression was completely different from when he praised the "Eternal Blazing Sun". The latter had a hint of holiness and fanaticism, as if Looking directly at the sun, the "Great Mother" is like Raymond's real mother, whom he admires and feels intimate with.

A priest of the Eternal Sun Church actually recited the name of another being loudly in the depths of the church, calling it great!

But such blasphemy did not result in any punishment, and Raymond seemed to have expected this result. His expression calmed, he stood up from the chair, faced the only window in the room again, looked at the sun, opened his arms, He chanted again:

"The great eternal blazing sun..."

Then, together with the robe on his body, he turned into a gray stone statue in the sunlight.

The expression of the stone statue is still sacred and fanatical, with its mouth slightly open and its arms spread out, like a stone cross.

The sunlight in front of it dimmed, and a figure appeared in front of the glass window. It was Angel who had left the Eternal Sun Church and headed to the forest to the west.

The door behind her was opened from the outside. Bernadette, wearing a women's shirt and tight-fitting trousers, slowly walked into the room. Looking at Raymond who was completely petrified and lifeless, she said with a serious expression:

"I didn't expect that . That power has penetrated into the church of Lieyang. No wonder more than a month has passed since the incident, and there is no news from the outside world... I am afraid that a similar situation has happened to the administrator of this village, and he is even more worried because he does not have to worry about being discovered by the church. Seriously."

Then she looked at Angel, who was staring at the stone statue in silence, her expression softened, and asked:

"'Great Mother', is that the source of pollution you mentioned?"

She did not use "starry sky" to refer to it. Generations, worried about accidentally "crossing the line" and knowing more accurate information.

"Probably, but there is no pollution on his body, and petrification did not allow him to develop extraordinary characteristics... He is just an ordinary person, at least for now."

Angel replied, his eyes flickering, switching between his vision and "The Man in the Mirror" "The gaze cast by the person of "City of Disaster" did not detect that ray of red light.

As for the "Great Mother", there is no doubt that it points to the "Fallen Mother Goddess".

It can't be the Mother Goddess of the Earth. She is a "local god" through and through, and one of the righteous gods. There is no need to engage in such small tricks to rob believers... Angel muttered, and the power of "petrification" was somewhat restrained, letting Lei Mond's gray body turned into a puddle of stone powder. Before it fell to the ground, it was flipped into the mirror and sprinkled over the entire world in the mirror, completely destroying the body and eliminating traces of it.

Both she and Bernadette knew that using Raymond as a medium to divine the "Great Mother" was undoubtedly an act of seeking death, so no one mentioned it.

Seeing a priest from the Eternal Sun Church disappear without a trace in her church, Bernadette casually searched the room, but did not find many valuable documents. She immediately looked at Angel and said:

"Next Should we inform the Eternal Burning Sun Church and let the purifier handle it, or should we go to the administrator's house in Belon Village? "

The corruption of a priest is enough for the Burning Sun Church to dispatch its own armed forces to quickly solve all this. .

But...

"However, the purifier will not only deal with possible pollution, but also have a high probability of 'purifying' the entire village. Regardless of whether the villagers here are contaminated or not, they will be imprisoned in the tribunal and treated cruelly. , the entire village will be completely wiped out of all traces," Angel said slowly, looking at the small holy symbol on the table. "This is why I want to investigate first instead of directly informing the official Beyonders in Intis."

"But before coming to Beron, you asked me to tell Bonova about this? Is it because of the Church of Steam and the Is it because of the relationship between me and Him that the behavior of 'Mechanical Heart' is not so extreme and intense?"

Bernadette asked.

"Both. I have cooperated with the 'Mechanical Heart' in Loen. I know that their methods are quite restrained. And telling him is equivalent to letting the god know that if something goes wrong with our actions, There is still a backup plan...The most important thing is that I see humanity in Bonova, not complete divinity,"

Angel said, opening the window and jumping directly over the window edge to the cemetery behind the church, Bell. Nadine followed.

"I also see humanity in you, and it is stronger than any angel I have ever seen." This extraordinary person who became a demigod more than a hundred years ago said, "The vast majority of extraordinary people possess divinity. After becoming Sequence 2, they will gradually lose their humanity... Oh, this does not mean that they will do evil. In mysticism, human nature does not mean good, there are also evil human natures, such as enjoying depraved behavior, being murderous or full of destructive desires. But in general, the loss of human nature will make them no longer consider the thoughts of ordinary people, and act more recklessly and recklessly."

It sounded like she was commenting on the situation of Emperor Russell in his later years... Angel had some insights. thinking.

She is aware that she is still "full of humanity" and does not think this is a trait worthy of praise. After all, she has only been an angel for a short month, and because she has two extremely stable partners, Klein and the man in the mirror. Anchor, she left many legendary deeds as the "Golden Queen" in advance, and the "Angelica the Pirate" series of novels is widely spread. In the eyes of others, she is still a person who has a clear distinction between love and hate, and behaves in a way that is considered "kind" by the public. existence on one side.

Although it is unclear whether this state is an advantage or a disadvantage compared to other angels, Angel hopes to keep it like this.

...

Walking among the vineyards and houses of different heights, sizes and layouts, Angel and Bernadette soon arrived at the forest to the west of Belon Village.

They did not go to the local administrator's house on the other side of the village to coax and get more information like they did to Father Raymond. After all, the priest had prayed to the "Great Mother" before he was petrified. , Nast might get more inspiration and sneak away, leaving them empty-handed.

Therefore, Angel adopted the most straightforward plan: immediately go to the forest to find Nast's former residence.

Entering the depths of the forest, which obviously exceeded the density of winter, Angel soon discovered a three-story house that looked extremely dilapidated but had signs of renovation everywhere. It was located on a flat land in the forest and had a small garden. , with one and a half floors embedded underground, appearing lower than an ordinary three-story building.

Half of the outer perimeter of the garden has been surrounded by thick wooden boards that have been re-erected, seemingly made by the young people Father Raymond said he hired to build the wall.

Standing in front of this patched-up house that was still somewhat ventilated, Angel used a nearby mirror to start investigating, but soon discovered that the entire house was shrouded in a gray mist, which she was proud of. Mirror Divination" had no response.

She turned her head and glanced at Bernadette beside her, who also shook her head, indicating that her prophecy ability did not detect anything unusual.

And this in itself means that divination and prophecy are interfered with by a certain force.

Taking a deep breath, Angel's figure returned to normal after a moment of blur. Her body had hid in the "mirror world", leaving only a lifelike avatar in the real world that could convey the power of herself and the person in the mirror.

Bernadette used her fingers to outline star-like words in the air, summoning the muscular man Angel had seen whose upper body was wrapped in white cloth, and whose lower body turned into a spiritual creature that was lifted up by a whirlwind.

He handed a diamond-encrusted forehead ornament to Bernadette, who took it and put it on her forehead. Her whole body immediately exuded an aura full of wisdom but rather indifference.

This is the "Sage's Forelock", a "0" level sealed object that allows the user to turn into a pure information flow creature at any time, avoiding most physical attacks, including even pollution that requires direct contact to be transmitted.

In this state, Bernadette dared to follow an angel into the interior of a building that was likely to contain the contamination of the "Great Mother" instead of just staying outside and waiting for the results.

After making all preparations, Angel's mirror substitute came to the door, stepped back with one foot, and stabilized his body with the other.

The next moment, she raised her retreating foot and kicked forward, smashing the wooden door into pieces, and rushed into the room first. I've wanted to do this for a long time... Angel in the mirror world is a little excited. She uses the status of "City of Disaster" to look around the avatar as if overlooking a flat picture album, alerting her to any possibility of appearing in any direction. attack.

But as the two entered the building, a scene full of evil and filthy atmosphere appeared in front of them like an abstract painting in a museum.

The living room of the entire house is opened upward, and the three floors are connected together. The first floor that is half buried underground is sunken inward. In the center is an altar made of dark red wood. Its main body is round, with a hollow interior and four sides. Many strange-shaped branches stretched out, like new offspring on dead wood.

Around the altar, circles of short creatures are regularly arranged in three concentric circles, close to the ground, kneeling in the direction of the altar. They have the same hands, feet, necks and heads as humans, but they are smaller, like babies. ...

No, they are real babies!

Angel's mirror substitute immediately saw the situation inside the room clearly through dark vision, and felt a chill rising from his heart.

Therefore, she immediately noticed that the humanoid creatures lying on the ground, numbering at least forty, were real humans. However, they had just gained freedom from their mother's arms. Not only did they not have time to grow, they could not get enough nutrition, so their limbs were damaged. It's as thin as a hemp stick, making the head look abnormally large.

Hearing the sound of the door being kicked, the babies lying on the ground raised their bodies in unison and looked at the two people at the door.

Forty faces of different shapes but with common characteristics also appeared in front of Angel's eyes.

Their faces are dry and wrinkled, their eyes protrude from the sockets, and are pure black with no inner pupils. The corners of their mouths are stretched to both sides due to wrinkled skin, revealing an interior filled with mucus and long sharp fangs.

This...they are not babies, they are obviously deformed monsters!

Angel, who had seen too many cult scenes and strange creatures, was briefly confused under the gaze of these evil creatures. The next second, another identical picture covered her eyes. It was the transmission of the "Man in the Mirror" Come, look at the real scene from the perspective of "City of Disaster".

Superimposed on the forty weird babies were wisps of blood-red light. Although they were dim, they shrouded the babies unswervingly, as if they were dyed with a layer of red gauze.

That is the pollution of the "Fallen Mother Goddess"!

The moment this was confirmed, all the babies in the room swooped in as if they had been ordered, and then hit the black flames that suddenly appeared in the air. Their bodies were ignited with raging fire. Then, the gray-white color representing disaster and death replaced the curse. The black color caused the flames in the air to crash to the ground with a muffled sound.

In an instant, all the weird babies turned into stones and lost their lives along with the black flames that burned them.

At this time, Bernadette had just stepped through the door, and her eyes had just focused on the dark red altar.

Is it over? She is indeed a "witch" angel whose destructive power ranks at the forefront of the twenty-two paths to God... Her eyes moved from the altar to the stone statues on the ground. As soon as the thought flashed through her mind, she discovered All the stone statues squirmed, cracking countless gaps, and the inside shone with blood-red light, as if blood-red flowers were planted on the stones.

The eerie color is reminiscent of the blood moon that would turn this color in the sky from time to time, giving all extraordinary beings and supernatural beings a spiritual uplift.

This is the reality of the pollution of the "Great Mother"!

The polluted bloody flowers were like eyes. The invisible sight immediately locked onto Bernadette, whose expression had changed. Her ears, eyes, and mouth each had their own thoughts and lives, allowing her to hear and see things that did not exist. Information, reciting words that I don't know what to call.

Without hesitation, Bernadette's body began to fade away, decomposing into streams of complex and pure knowledge, becoming a disembodied information flow creature. This effectively prevented the body from mutating and allowed her to escape from a certain kind of madness. recover from.

As if it was clear that there was nothing that could be done against this information creature in a short period of time, the invisible sight of the blood-colored flowers on the surface of the rocks turned to Angel, and the pollution containing maliciousness poured into her in a regular manner, trying to "activate" everything about her. .

But what greeted them was an aura of destruction that emerged from within Angel's mirror double.

The Angel from the "Mirror World", the Man in the Mirror from the "City of Disaster", come from the power of disaster and destruction caused by the personality of Sefirah that is far higher than Sequence 2.

An invisible hand swept across the entire building in an instant. The already dilapidated and incompletely repaired house seemed to have experienced another hundred years, decaying, collapsing, and turning into floating ash.

The cracks on the surface of the forty stone baby statues in the living room expanded to both sides and connected to each other, leaving the gray-white surface covered with lines of varying thicknesses. The blood-red light inside wandered and flickered among them, as if they were avoiding something extremely scary. things.

But as the power of destruction lingered and covered them, the stone statues were broken one after another, and a trace of blood-red breath escaped from inside. Some of them tried to fly into the air and escape from here, and some wanted to enter the dark red altar. They continued to dodge, and some gathered together and floated towards Angel, trying to make a final struggle.

But as ice mirrors appeared in the air, accurately "catching" the red breath and dyeing themselves crimson, these escaped pollution quickly returned to the "mirror world", mirroring each other in countless, seemingly endless mirrors. Reflected back and forth, it was finally shrouded in a deep black shadow, and disappeared unwillingly into the depths of the mirror world.

This is the first time Angel has used the power of "Origin" to crush the pollution belonging to the "old days".

The effect was pretty good, and the pollution from the outer gods was not allowed to flow to the outside, but... As soon as a thought flashed through Angel's mind, he heard a sharp, somewhat angry sound coming from the only dark red altar that was still intact around him. roared.

Then, the altar shattered and collapsed right in front of her eyes, and a wisp of gray-white mist floated from it, quickly dispersing into the spiritual world and disappearing.

What kind of power is this...

Angel was thoughtful as he looked at the sky where the gray-white mist broke through the distance between the spiritual world and the gaps were visible to the naked eye.

Behind her, the information-based Bernadette reorganized her body, covered her ears that were almost separated from her body just now, quickly took off the "Sage's forehead ornament" on her forehead, and handed it to the servant of the spirit world who appeared again.

"Was that the pollution of the 'Great Mother' just now?" She looked around at the ruins crushed by the force of destruction, looked at the broken stone statues of babies, and asked with lingering fear, "Have they all been removed?"

"If you mean The pollution here has all been resolved.

Angel replied slowly, recalling the extraordinary characteristics of the "Planeswalker" and the "Mother of Desolation" seen in the "City of Dreams" Patis Underground Memorial Hall. , and the blood-red smell of pollution inside them.

"But if you are talking about the pollution carried by Nast... then only one-fifth of it remains here. "

PS: I have been very busy working overtime these days, so I had to rush out of this chapter, so I didn't stop at night.

(End of chapter)Chapter 1009 Digging

the Grave Angel's words are well-founded, because she has seen two other contaminated Sequence 2 characteristics in the memorial hall below the City Hall of the "City of Dreams". Quantified by the size of the red light contaminated by "Fallen Mother Goddess", the pollution levels within the characteristics of "Planeswalker" and "Desolation Mother Goddess" are completely consistent. This means that the pollution transferred from the inside of the "Duke of Entropy" to Nast's body is very likely to have the same amount.

The contamination of the "Great Mother" in the forty babies that Angel had petrified and destroyed just now was far from enough. At least 80% of it was in other places, maybe still in Nast's body, or maybe in more mutated babies.

Thinking of this, she quickly glanced around the surface of the house that had been reduced to ruins and the superstructure had almost completely collapsed. She explored every corner with the help of the few remaining mirrors, but found no other enemies.

Bernadette frowned on the side and repeated with some confusion:

"One-fifth...you mean, there are four times the number of such monsters hiding near the village?"

"The greater possibility is that there are Nast, and he may have received warning before, or he may have left the village earlier, leaving only these... children of the 'Great Mother' believers."

Angel replied in a guessing tone.

She wanted to say "Nast's children", but recalling the moment she saw these babies before the battle, she felt that they looked nothing like the black-haired, black-bearded, burly Nast, but had different shapes. It's like each comes from a different "parent".

Thinking that after Nast came to the village, he would hire some young people to help and work deep in the forest from time to time, Angel couldn't help but have a terrible guess.

As for how to make men give birth to children, this is not a very important issue in the field of occultism, especially since the real name of the "Great Mother" has the phrase "filthy mother's nest", which represents the path of "moon" and "mother". It is very likely that the sefirot holds the power of fertility and reproduction.

"Those babies, the villagers here?"

Bernadette's expression also changed a little. She turned her head to look in the direction of the village, as if she saw countless contaminated followers of the "Great Mother" through the dense forest.

Although she didn't know about "Outer Gods" and "Essence", she could get a glimpse of the source of pollution from the title "Great Mother" and guess the corresponding authority and power.

According to her experience, once you recite the honorable names of these evil entities, devote yourself physically and mentally to them, and change your beliefs, everything is irreversible.

Even if he repented and returned to the "Eternal Burning Sun" or other righteous gods' faith, it would be of no avail. He might die in various strange ways at any time, and would harm other people around him.

The principle is clear to both Angel and Bernadette. It is the invisible connection formed by "prayer". They can use this prayer connection to transmit power and respond to prayers. Couldn't the "Great Mother" do this?

Premonition of what would happen to these villagers, the two looked at each other helplessly.

"Let's search the scene first. Maybe we can find some other clues..."

After a moment of silence, Angel spoke first.

Above the ruins of the collapsed house, invisible threads appeared out of thin air. Like invisible hands, they separated various wood fragments and stone wall edges and returned them to their original positions, barely reassembling the original shape of the house.

Bernadette recruited an "invisible servant" who could not be seen with the naked eye and asked him to shuttle through the crumbling house and quickly search every inch of the house.

Soon, the servant returned to the two of them holding some valuable items.

Among them are charts of the Misty Sea southwest of Intis, some books recording the glorious history of Roselle, and many corpses hidden in the basement.

Angel recognized at a glance that they were also deformed babies, but they were already dead and the pollution in their bodies no longer existed.

"It seems that Nast did a lot of 'experiments' during the month he was here, and then used the Great Mother's contamination and some means to create the babies just now... After that, he left Belon Village , go to other locations and continue to complete his 'mission'..."

Looking through the found items, Angel made a preliminary judgment.

"The charts and these books may be able to point to his true purpose... Could it be that he still has not completely given up on becoming the 'Black Emperor', and is even looking for the tomb of Emperor Russell?"

She still remembered that this time traveler was used to One of the secret mausoleums promoted to the "Black Emperor", the key mausoleum that even the Church of Steam and the Sun can't find, is located in the depths of the Sea of ​​Mist!

As if she thought of this at the same time, Bernadette's eyes became hot. She glanced back and forth on the chart, but did not find any marks.

"Are you suspecting that Nast used these contaminated babies and the weird worship ceremony just now to find the tomb of Emperor Russell?" Angel pointed out her thoughts, "But the ones completely contaminated by the 'Great Mother' Does he really still retain his desire?"

After hearing this, Bernadette, who was continuing to control the invisible servants to search nearby, shook her head and said:

"Not all believers of the evil god are completely depraved and give up thinking. Many of them don't even know that they have been contaminated, they just think that they have heard the ravings of a great being, or have received some kind of 'revelation', and that as long as they follow the guidance of this power, they can meet all their needs. "Just like Old Neil who wanted to resurrect his fiancée and sought a way to resurrect him, but was eventually contaminated by the "Hidden Sage" without knowing it. He still thought he was on the right path... Angel's eyes dimmed. , and immediately thought that the Moss Dervish Order controlled by the Hidden Sage was the mortal enemy of Bernadette and her "Elemental Dawn". Presumably, the eldest daughter of Emperor Russell had also encountered many similar incidents. Only then did I summarize this information.

Just as her mind drifted back to Tingen a year ago, Bernadette's expression changed again and she said:

"The grave of Savini Solomon has been found."

...

To Angel's surprise, the contaminated Nast He actually built a tomb for his father who passed away in the "City of Dreams", and it was not far behind the restored building, and it was almost destroyed by Angel's "disaster" power.

Like most tombs in Intis, a pit is first dug in the ground, the coffin or urn is placed in it, buried with soil and stone slabs, and finally a tombstone is erected.

Since Savigny only had a handful of ashes left, the tomb was not large in size, but the stone slab covering the tomb showed a strange asymmetry on both sides, one large and one small, one thick and one thin. The inscriptions on the tombstone were majestic and contained The faint majesty is obviously the work of Nast.

In addition to Savini Solomon's name and date of birth and death engraved on it, there is also a brief epitaph:

"Death is not the end of the journey."

Seeing this sentence, Angel did not hesitate to use invisible threads to open it. Tombstone and slab below.

Bernadette understood, and the invisible servant quickly moved the lower soil away until the new soil, which was clearly distinguished from the hard soil on both sides, was piled around the tomb.

But they still haven't found the urn or coffin.

The tomb is empty!

Why am I not surprised at all? Is it because I, Klein and even the captain all have a similar tomb? Of course, we are either not dead or resurrected, and Savini has been dead for more than a hundred years, and there are only a few left. Pounds of ashes are unlikely to pop out of the grave on their own... Angel muttered in his heart and tried to enter the field of vision of the "man in the mirror" to rule out the possibility of contamination from the "Fallen Mother Goddess" around him.

It seems that he was not resurrected by the power of the "Great Mother". Perhaps Nast did not bury his father in the grave at all, but took away his ashes... What he longed for most in his heart was not to be with Bernadette. Same, resurrecting his father, right?

Angel's mind was constantly filled with thoughts, and he looked at Bernadette as if to verify. The latter thought for a moment and said,

"In all these years, I have never heard of the rumor that the 'King of the Five Seas' is obsessed with looking for his father. Maybe this is It was a desire buried deep in his heart that was later distorted by the contamination of the Great Mother. This psychology prompted him to conduct other experiments, such as creating deformed babies, and spreading more beliefs about the Great Mother. "

This . It was similar to Angel's conjecture, but there was a lack of conclusive evidence, so the two could only restore the tomb, bypass the three-story building that collapsed again due to lack of invisible thread support, and walked towards Beron Village outside the forest.

Angel plans to first use the identity of the "City of Disaster" to observe all the villagers one by one to confirm whether they are contaminated by the "Great Mother", that is, the "Fallen Mother Goddess", and then decide whether to notify the Eternal Sun Church or wait for the steam The advent of the earthly angel of the Church, Bonova Gustave.

In any case, to "deal with" the people of the Republic of Intis in large numbers, it is best to let the Church of Steam or the Burning Sun come forward, even now that the two countries are at war.

After all, neither the "Eternal Burning Sun" nor the "God of Steam and Machinery" are different from the God of War. They have no essential conflict with the Goddess of Night, and they are parties that can be won over and cooperated with.

Bernadette followed Angel, her brows furrowed from time to time, as if she was lost in thought.

Wouldn't she still be concerned about the sea chart left by Nast, the dark red altar in that building, the prayers of forty contaminated babies, and the last gray-white mist, could they all be related to the "Black Emperor" "Is it related to the mausoleum?

As soon as this thought came to Angel's mind, he felt the sunlight above his head became fierce, as if he had just come out of the shadows and came under the scorching sun of July or August.

She looked up in response.

Although it has set to the west, next to the sun that is emitting scorching sunlight, a female figure wearing a white robe with gold threads, a beautiful appearance and a holy temperament slowly emerges.

Her long golden hair was fluttering, her green eyes were calm, and her whole body seemed to be outlined by sunlight, which was translucent, but emitted almost as much brilliance and heat as the sun.

Being illuminated by this scorching sunlight, the meditative Bernadette also raised her head. As soon as her eyes touched that dazzling figure, her pupils shrank and her expression became serious.

"He is... the earthly angel of the 'Eternal Sun' Church, Saint Veiver!"Chapter 1010 How to deal with it is a difficult problem:

Saint-Vieve... Angel remembered the "Saint-Vieve Church" he passed by when he came to Trier last time to solve the problem of the "Man in the Mirror". It was the church of the Eternal Sun. The largest church in Trier besides the Sacre-Coeur Cathedral, the headquarters, the patron angel is the only female angel of the church, Saint Vieve.

This month, it was Trier's turn to be on duty, and the one who escorted that city with many secrets was Saint Bonois of the Church of Steam. As a result, Veve 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 somewhat sensitive. They should not appear in Intis or in the parish of the Eternal Sun Church. If everything can be resolved as soon as possible and they leave, the official extraordinary people who arrived later can only hold their noses and pretend. Tsukuru didn't know, but he was stuck in a traffic jam now...

In short, let's ask this angel why he came here. If that doesn't work, take Bernadette into the mirror world and run away. He shouldn't dare to chase after him... so he thought , Angel looked directly at this woman who exuded dazzling light, and asked loudly:

"Your Excellency Saint Vieve of the Church of the Burning Sun?"

This is not only a polite confirmation of identity, but also a question of who the other party is as an angel of the Burning Sun. Regardless of identity, it is still a more "private" action.

As she expected, Veve nodded slightly, then floated down, looked at Angel and Bernadette, and said in a ethereal tone with fiery emotion:

"Angelica Sage of the Church of the Night is wanted. Prisoner Bernadette Gustave "

Actually, I am also a wanted criminal, but He seems to value my identity as the Night Blessed more, while Bernadette has lost Russell's cover, and in His eyes she is just hanging on. The "Mysterious Queen" with a reward... Angel murmured silently, nodded as confirmation, and then asked:

"What is your purpose here?"

"Follow my lord's guidance, clean up the fallen priests who have been bewitched, and purify those contaminated by heretics. " Believer,"

Veve replied in a chant-like tone.

At this time, He has landed not far from Angel, and the light on his body has also converged, allowing people to clearly see His beautiful and holy face and green eyes without any emotion, which are completely different from His emotional words. .

This means that "purification" means killing all the villagers who may be contaminated by the external gods, or even the entire village. It is better to kill the wrong ones than let them go... Angel's heart gradually sank to the bottom.

As for how this angel got the news and came quickly, based on his words, Angel also had a guess:

when the priest named Raymond disguised his identity and prayed to the "Eternal Burning Sun", he might have the last trace of his heart. Conscience and original beliefs came into play. They were not perfunctory, but prayed truly and devoutly. This allowed the "Eternal Sun" to know the status of him and Beilon Village, and sent out the closest ones that could avoid being harmed. The angel of information pollution from "outer gods", Saint Vieve.

If He had come a few minutes earlier, he might have seen me and Bernadette digging a grave... She smiled secretly and said,

"We have solved the biggest trouble. The fallen priest and the corresponding pollution have also been eliminated. Cleared, but Nast Solomon left here with more gifts from the 'Great Mother' and disappeared. "

"Nast, the King of the Five Seas?"

St. Veve fell lightly on the two. In front of the person, he asked with a little doubt. Angel noticed that His bare feet were vaguely exposed under His holy white robe, which were the same as Arianna, another female angel she had seen.

But unlike the ascetic monk, the moment Saint-Vieve's feet landed on the ground, all the dead leaves and weeds on the ground were burned away, "purifying" a small space without pollution.

"That's him, Your Excellency Saint-Vieve," it was Bernadette who answered him. "He came here a month ago, claiming that he wanted to repair the ancient house and bury his father, but in fact he was spreading it secretly." The Great Mother's faith..."

She summarized the information she got from Father Raymond and the two people's guesses and actions, and succinctly informed this angel of the blazing sun.

After listening quietly, the latter nodded again and asked in a confirming manner:

"Do you know what the 'Great Mother' means?"

"I know, but she doesn't know."

Angel spoke before Bernadette. replied. She was worried that this kind of question would cause Bernadette to think deeply and cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"That's enough," Veev nodded with satisfaction, "You don't need to intervene in the rest. The 'Purifiers' will continue to track the traces of Nast Solomon and solve other problems he left behind, Veron "The village will also be thoroughly purified to eliminate any hidden dangers."

"In view of your contribution in this incident, the church will not hold Father Raymond responsible for illegal entry and private processing. However, due to the special nature of your status, please. Leave Intis as soon as possible. "

Now we are ready to expel the guest... But even if Nast is contaminated and mentally unstable, he will definitely not commit crimes multiple times in the same country, and he should have got what he needs. It is very likely that she has left Intis... Although Angel was a little dissatisfied in her heart, the fact that she was able to hand over the end of the incident to the official Beyonders was the result of her discussion with Bernadette, so she did not refute, but just asked in confusion. :

"How are you going to 'purify' this village?"

Veev turned sideways and looked at the vineyards and low houses outside the forest, watching those who walked out of the room curiously because the sunlight suddenly became fierce. The villager said in an emotionless tone:

"Since you know the true meaning of the 'Great Mother', you should know what this pollution means. Everyone in this village will be thoroughly 'purified' to avoid any pollution "Leaked."

Sure enough... Angel sighed secretly and made a last-ditch effort: "Including those villagers who didn't know anything at all? Most of them have never even come into contact with Nast, but from the deformed baby inside the building in the forest? Look, there are not many people who are bewitched to become believers of the 'Great Mother'. "

"If this happened in Loen, among the followers of the Night Goddess, what would you do if you risked leaking the deep-seated contamination? Should the risks be carefully screened one by one, or should this small number of people be sacrificed for the safety of other surrounding parishes?"

St. Veyève raised her head, looked at Angel with her jewel-like green eyes, and asked mercilessly.

But Angel could see a trace of deeply hidden emotion in the other person's eyes.

It turns out that He was not completely overwhelmed by "divinity"... An idea suddenly came to Angel's mind.

She actually knew that Saint Veve's approach was the safest and most responsible. Unlike the loss of control of extraordinary people and the influence of sealed objects, the pollution that "outer gods" penetrated into the earth was extremely difficult to deal with through ordinary means, even for demigods. As long as you don't reach Sequence 2, you can't guarantee your own safety in the face of this kind of power, let alone help other people who become believers of foreign gods.

Of course, this does not mean that official Extraordinaries of medium and low sequences cannot handle such incidents. As long as the "outer gods" do not transmit their power into the barrier, the simple issue of "belief" can completely make ordinary "Nighthawks", The "Purifier" will deal with it, just like the believers of the "Mother Tree of Desire" that Angel and Klein once faced.

But this time, the belief in the "Great Mother" spread by Nast Solomon has a rare trace of pollution that truly originates from outside gods and from the past. This comes from the "City of Dreams" and is unknown when it was removed. Once the power sent to the earth by the "Fallen Mother Goddess" is 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 has nothing to do with me." Belon Village is an Intis village, and those who bear the risk are also Intis people... Angel analyzed his inner thoughts, Under the watchful eyes of Veve, he would give up his own ideas.

At this moment, Angel's spirituality sensed something, and she naturally raised her head to look up. The same was true for Saint-Vieve in front of her.

At the end of their sight, a space seemed to be distorted, causing the sunlight that passed through to refract, as if the physical laws here had changed.

Then, a figure appeared in the center of the twisted space.

He is tall and handsome, with long chestnut hair and a white apron around his gray robe, like an apprentice who walked out of a workshop.

As soon as he appeared, his blue eyes were locked on the three people below, especially Bernadette Gustave, who was standing at the farthest position and also had a pair of light blue eyes.

The latter looked at his younger brother, Bonova Gustave, who had become an angel of the Church of Steam, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Your Excellency Bonova, I think it is enough for the Church of the Eternal Sun to handle this matter."

Veev, who looked up into the sky, spoke first.

"In fact, before today, Ms. Bernadette and the Beloved of the Night notified me in advance and reported this matter. Although this is not an official announcement between the churches, it also means that the Steam Church has Jurisdiction over the matter."

Bonois, who had chestnut hair and an expression as calm as a doll, also landed at the edge of the forest and said.

"Belon Village is not a parish of the Church of Steam, and the fallen priests and villagers are all believers of the Eternal Blazing Sun. You should not interfere in this matter."

He glanced at Angel and then at Bonova, realizing that the two There was obviously a slight change in Veve's expression as she stood at a distance, but her tone remained calm.

"I have no intention of intervening in Lieyang's treatment of his followers, and I think the same is true for Miss Angelica," Bonova replied in a monotonous tone, "but there should be a more suitable plan for the 'purification' of Belon Village. ...For example, gather them together and ask each believer to recite the name of the Eternal Blazing Sun. If there is actual pollution, purify it completely. If not, you can consider focusing on observation and confirming that it is harmless before releasing it. "It's

very rational, but yet . The approach of not offending others is in line with the style of "Machine Heart"... Angel's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately looked at Saint-Vieve, who represented the "Purifier".

If she was hesitant before about going against this angel in the territory of the Eternal Blazing Sun, now that she has the support of the "God of Steam and Machinery" angel who is also preaching in Intis, her mentality is naturally completely different.

Even if Bernadette, who possesses a "0" level sealed object, is not taken into account, her combat power at the angel level is two against one. The advantage is mine...

The other person who had the same idea was Saint-Vieve. He was silent for a moment, and I don't know why. Weighing the pros and cons, still waiting for instructions from a certain god.

Just when Angel's inner expectation gradually reached the top, the angel nodded.
