Chapter 151 Can’t angels be evil?
"Why do you look at me like that?"
Wayne turned around in a circle: "I don't have any clothes on me, how can I hide the stone slab."
"You can hide things without clothes. Your statement doesn't hold water!"
"Okay, okay, you're being unreasonable, aren't you? I'm going to find a rock. You can try hiding one." Wayne kicked the rock at his feet, the size of a fist, and asked Kerr to give it a try.
Ker lowered his head and said nothing. He had only heard of that kind of Tibetan method and had zero practical experience, so he would not demonstrate it.
"Let's go, stop squatting. I'm going to change clothes, and you go find a car. Silent Hill is not safe. People from the Church of Death will come at any time. Let's get out of here first." Wayne carried Mona and walked towards the dormitory.
Kerr stood up holding the big tree, grinning in pain, and complained: "Why don't you ask me why I lay down, and what kind of dangerous battles you and Mona went through to protect me?"
"As long as you live, why do you care so much? I just want a cup of steaming milk right now." Wayne drifted away.
Half an hour later, Mayor Wells was stuffed into the trunk, and the car drove away from Silent Hill and headed straight for Eclipse Town.
The mayor's mansion.
The three of them did not go to the hotel. Kerr's magic power was severely exhausted, and Mona's mind was exhausted and she fell into a coma. In case there were minions from the Death Church, they chose to spend the night at the mayor's house in the dark.
It was dawn the next day.
Wayne was full of energy after only four hours of sleep. His vitality was strong and his need for sleep was getting smaller and smaller. If this trend continued, after he was promoted to the Golden Mage, only one hour of sleep a day would be enough.
He took out the account book buried under the crooked neck tree. He was lucky enough that the car parked next to the hotel was not driven away by the local gang.
When I returned to the mayor's house, I saw the long-awaited Mona.
"Are you awake so early?"
Wayne closed the car door and said hello in surprise.
He cheated every time he was indecisive. He had never experienced mental exhaustion. According to the symptoms described in theoretical books, he knew that this was a very painful process and the plot was seriously life-threatening.
Mona's mind was nearly exhausted twice in a short period of time, and she became full of energy after just one sleep. Holy Light Magic indeed has merits.
want to!
Mona stepped forward quickly and grabbed Wayne's arm. She looked as excited as if she had seen an idol, and was afraid that he would run away if he let go.
She lowered her voice and said, "Bruce, you are an angel who came to earth, right?"
"Ah this..."
Wayne was stunned by this unprovoked question, whether he was Bruce or not. He was still in the Schrödinger state, and it was difficult to make a conclusion before opening the blind box.
No matter what Mona says, he won't admit it anyway.
But what does "an angel who has descended into the world" mean? Akito doesn't tell secrets. With his flexible moral bottom line, even if he is an angel, he is still an angel who has fallen into the world.
Advent is not the right word to use!
Wayne looked at Mona with a retarded expression on his face: "First of all, I'm not Bruce, and secondly, I'm not an angel. If I go back to sleep before I wake up, you see, I'm talking in my sleep."
"It's useless if you don't admit it, I've seen it all."
Mona suppressed her voice: "When you saved me, I saw the wings and the eye of judgment. You are exactly the same as the angel described in the Bible."
"No way. Wouldn't it be too evil for your archangel to act like this?"
Wayne blurted out, then clenched his fist and coughed, and said seriously: "Mona, I don't know what you saw. Based on your mental state at the time, I seriously doubt that you were hallucinating. Listen, you are just too empty. Go back to sleep." Once you wake up, give your friends a chat and fall in love a few more times and you won’t have random thoughts.”
Mona ignored Wayne's nonsense and said seriously: "The image of angels is not static. The initial appearance of angels was very scary. As the times changed, angels gradually became the gentle and friendly images they are now."
Mona explains to Wayne why the angel's image changes.
Initially, the image of an angel is defined by itself, that is, the true appearance of an angel, which has a sacredness that makes people awe and fear.
Later, the influence of the Heavenly Father Church declined, and its control over the Chosen Continent was far less than it once was. The image of angels began to be defined by the world. The world put their fantasies of all things holy and beautiful on angels, and that was how they got the current human-shaped wings.
"That is not ugliness, that is majesty, the first and most sacred life."
"..."
Wayne was speechless. He had been lucky enough to see the appearance of the ancient god. If someone asked what the first and most perfect life in the world looked like, it would probably only be the appearance of the ancient god.
Life is evolving, and different beliefs have different directions of evolution. Wayne alone knows about elves, giants, dragons, skeletons, angels, devils...
The Heavenly Father Church is the most powerful religious force in the past and is now. It must have seen ancient gods. Angels are the highest level evolutionary sequence in heaven. It is reasonable to refer to the ancient gods in their existence form.
Can't angels be evil?
Angels don't necessarily have to be very holy. This is just the wishful thinking of ordinary people.
"Bruce, admit it, you are an angel!" Mona held Wayne's wrist tightly and said every word.
"I'm Wayne, not Bruce, and I'm not an angel. You've found the wrong person." Wayne shook his head. He and the angel bumped into each other purely by accident, and advised Mona not to waste any more time.
Mona didn't believe it. What she saw with her own eyes couldn't be false. She tried her best to persuade Wayne to admit his identity. This was a good thing and not embarrassing.
There are no angels touching nuns’ butts, and devils are more or less the same. You really think too much!
Wayne said no more. If it's not, it's not. Windsor is a society ruled by law, at least on the surface. It has a complete set of procedures. Talking without evidence is slander.
He took out the account book and put it in Mona's hand: "The mayor is in the trunk. These are the evidences. Let Kerr take them back to Lundan and deal with them."
"Please rest assured, I will definitely supervise him to complete the task." Mona took the account book solemnly, with a serious look as if she was on a pilgrimage.
Wayne rolled his eyes. Religion makes people stupid. This guy is hopeless.
He turned around and walked towards the car, and found Mona following him like a little tail. He said angrily: "Pagan, I am going to the stronghold of Jianhe County. You have also seen that I am the pastor of the Church of Nature. If I really Being an angel, I cannot join the natural church.”
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
Mona said she understood, just like Bruce was undercover in the Thousand-Eyed Demon stronghold, angels were undercover in the Natural Church to prepare for the Holy War.
"Okay, as long as you are happy. Also, don't use honorifics. Although we are not familiar with each other, we can still be considered friends. Just call me boss."
Wayne closed the car door, refused to go with Mona, stepped on the accelerator, and drove to Jianhe County to check in.
Mona looked at the car going away and wanted to follow it, but she was afraid that the owner would be angry. After thinking about it, she decided to contact the archbishop first.
Mission accomplished, she found the angel!
Because Bruce = Wayne = Angel, the title Master immediately became sacred. Unlike some time ago, the shame was mixed with a small excitement of breaking the taboo.
As the car left Eclipse Town, Wayne took out the white dove from his gentleman's hat, made sure that no little tail was following, and took out the map to take a detour to Silent Hill.
“It’s time to settle the harvest!”
————
It was noon, and Wayne was carrying his suitcase, walking through the inaccessible mountains and forests like a fugitive.
The sealed book was lost in the wilderness by the portal. It took him a lot of effort to find the coordinates and the four rings. Fortunately, he was quick, otherwise he would have lost them again. Wayne returned to the car, took out a piece of clean clothes from the trunk and changed into them, facing the end of the mission with a full spirit.
The first is the four rings, which store a large amount of elements inside. They are the Headless Horseman's savings for many years. They can be released at once, enough to fill three Parises.
Due to the impact on the obelisk seal, one-third of the four elements in the ring were consumed, and now it can barely fill two Parises.
This is still a very exaggerated number.
It is far inferior to the gray space of the Free Mage Alliance, but it has a crushing advantage over the elemental space of the Lord of the Void, one sky and one earth. There is no comparison at all.
If Wayne gets four rings at the hexagram stage, he can complete the transformation of the essence of life without entering the elemental space, and the Lord of the Void will not die.
"Lord of the Void..."
Wayne silently recited the other person's name, as well as Sebastian and the Death Knight. A man must not forget his roots. These are his precious people and must be pulled out and whipped repeatedly.
Wayne's chest tore open, he put four rings into it, and agreed with the Book of Greed to split it 30-70. This time he wanted 70%, and he would split it 50-50 with the Book of Greed when the ancient silver coins were found.
After being promoted to the Silver Cross, his life essence was further amplified. Coupled with the faith of the five goddesses, the demand could not be met by four rings. The ancient silver coins had to be brought back.
Wayne looked at the sealed book. The four rings could only be considered a small profit, while the obelisk slab was the big one. He believed in the eyes of the devils and the slab was definitely a treasure.
"Sebastian said that once the slate leaves the Sealed Book, other slate holders will see me..."
Wayne frowned. When he stared into the abyss, the abyss was also staring at him. This operation was very reasonable, just like raising worms. All the stone slabs would eventually return to one place.
Wayne thinks he has some strength. Without borrowing the Death Knight vest or integrating the Book of Greed, with a small opening, he can compete with the Golden Mage.
The legendary mage is probably very tough. He is too advanced and has mastered a lot of knowledge. With his ability, he is afraid that he will be locked up in a dark room before he even meets the opponent.
The treasures of heaven and earth are inhabited by the virtuous, and the treasures are only for the strong. Assuming that someone has found other stone slabs, they are at least at the legendary mage level.
"You must not open the sealed book in Lundan..."
Wayne set a bottom line for himself, carefully opened the book of seals, touched the obelisk slab with his fingertips, and closed the book of seals five seconds later.
Without saying a word, he started the car and drove towards Jianhe County as fast as possible, his face full of ecstasy and helplessness.
Happily, when he touched the stone slab, his mind entered a world similar to the gray space, with thunder and storms roaring, and homeless fellows with sad faces, eagerly waiting for kindhearted people to accept him.
Book of Greed: I’m coming!
In five seconds, as soon as the Book of Greed stretched out his hand, Wayne closed the door.
He was helpless because he sensed another slate holder who was very close. If the feeling was correct, the other person was in Lundan.
Wayne didn't know who the holder was.
The hazy feeling was more like the stone slab was in a sealed state. The sealing effect was not as good as the sealed book provided by the devil. A wisp of breath leaked, allowing him to gain the opposite position.
It can only be positioned in Lundan, no matter how precise it is, it cannot be done.
"Lundan is so big, where can I find it?"
Wayne complained, and when he realized it, he found that he had inflated again. So what if he found it? It was not certain who was the hunter. What if the other party was fishing for law enforcement?
Wayne analyzed the pros and cons. He hid in secret. As long as the stone slab was not moved, the other party would definitely not be able to find him, so he temporarily took the initiative.
This initiative is very passive!
The Book of Greed is very hungry, let Wayne open the seal again, just ten seconds, just ten seconds, even if it is not for himself, he must think about the homeless fellow villagers.
If you have something to do with a fellow villager, if you have nothing to do with others, you will be a troublemaker!
Wayne rolled his eyes and refused the temptation.
However, the book of greed is himself. If he can resist the temptation, the book of greed will not be the book of greed, but the book of generosity.
To make him generous, it would be better to kill him directly.
Wayne briefly rejected the temptation. He knew very well that it was not the voice of the Book of Greed. It was him who longed for the obelisk. He longed for the four elements and the storm and thunder. His patience was already at the limit, and sooner or later he would reach out to the opponent. .
"If you can't open the sealed book in Lundan, you can only open it in Jianhe County... no, in Eclipse Town."
While driving, Wayne analyzed the strategy. He first concealed his existence, and then read books to gain knowledge and make plans. He would check in at Jianhe County every week and open the sealed book every seven days.
Although there are still some risks, he has made up his mind and no one can persuade him.
If you leave it alone, the slate will be in vain!
Wayne can bear it, but the people of the Church of Death who presented the slate cannot bear it. He will definitely die with his eyes open after knowing it, even if it makes them smile, he must use it.
"There is also Lundan's slate. If I can get it, I can open the sealed book openly..."
————
As a sovereign country, Windsor's intelligence agency has been criticized in various ways and has created many classic and popular jokes.
But to be honest, Windsor is still okay, at least in the context of its peers.
Silent Hill is 100 kilometers away from the capital Lundan. An earthquake suddenly occurred and a mountain collapsed. It immediately attracted strong onlookers from various departments.
Ignoring pure academics, the Ministry of Magic in Windsor immediately sent people to the scene.
It was the afternoon of the second day after the earthquake. Well, Wayne had already arrived home and was enjoying black tea from his butler, Fra.
After checking in during the period, he also helped the literary girl go to the cathedral to borrow ancient books and increase her favorability.
The investigation turned out to be inconclusive.
The leader of the investigation team was a silver mage with limited abilities and found nothing. They only found the bodies of members of the Death Church.
These corpses are the work of Kerr. He submitted an investigation report, describing the causes and consequences, the mayor, the Church of Death, the slate...
Kerr did not go deep into the mine, and the information he knew was extremely limited. Why the Death Church was looking for the slate and what the slate was was not mentioned in the report.
The Ministry of Magic interviewed Wayne immediately.
Was stopped.
Auston interfered and took the initiative to take over the job. He will personally investigate the matter and let the superiors wait for a process and be sure to give a satisfactory answer.
As we all know, many things often go unfinished while waiting.
Another informed force is the Heavenly Father Church. Mona said everything, Wayne is Bruce, and Bruce is the angel.
Archbishop Gunther was shocked to hear the good news. He sat up in his dying illness and asked with a smile where the angel was. As soon as the man was refreshed, he was cured on the spot.
Compared to this big news, he didn't care about the slate at all, and it had nothing to do with the devil. It gave the Free Mage Alliance and the Three Goddess Alliance a headache.
In case Mona was mistaken, Gunther urgently wanted to meet Wayne and confirm that he was one of the seven angels who came.
This is very critical and is a top priority for the entire Holy See. Because of this matter, the Pope's hair is almost falling out.
"Archbishop, he doesn't want to admit his identity." Mona was helpless.
"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether he admits it or not. Just confirm that he is."
Gunther looked at the cross: "Invite him to the cathedral. I have a way to confirm his identity."
