Sun Ran was wearing a thick hooded cloak, and he was holding a stick in his hand, with a young carrot tied to the stick. The carrot jumped in the air, hanging just in front of the donkey.
So, the donkey carrying a sword, a bow, and two large bags followed Carrot all the way, painstakingly carrying Sun Ran across thousands of miles from Tire to Bethlehem.
After attracting for a while, he felt that it was almost done, so Sun Ran let the donkey get the carrot, then took out another carrot from his bag, tied it, and hung it in front of the donkey again, so the donkey started working hard for the next carrot again.
It was winter at this time, with dark clouds and heavy snow all over the sky. There were basically no pedestrians on the road, and even the guards guarding the gate were huddled in the barracks behind the city gate.
When he arrived at the city gate, Sun Ran threw a silver coin over and said, "I want to enter the city."
The guard reached out to take it, put it in his hand and blew on it, then put it to his ear and listened. After confirming the authenticity of the silver coin, he shrunk and asked lazily: "What are you doing in the city?"
"I am a bard. I heard that Bethlehem is a famous city on the mainland. I came to see the world." Sun Ran took out a powerful bow disguised as a lyre.
"Oh, it's so painful to run around in the winter. Come on in." The soldier waved his hand.
Sun Ran entered the city and followed the instructions of the Dragon of Order, walking all the way towards the birthplace of the Holy Son. After walking for more than half an hour, he suddenly saw a man on the side of the road who looked like him and was wearing a cloak.
Hold him.
Turning around to look at the man, Sun Ran turned the carrot in his hand and led the donkey into a remote alley, and the man followed.
When they arrived in the alley, they looked around and saw no one. The person took off his hood, and his face was very familiar. It was none other than Seraph Gabriel, but now she was in the mortal world. Like Sun Ran, she was only a third-level priest.
And looking at the specific level of divine power, there is still a bit of a gap between him and the current Sun Ran.
"Michael, you're late." she scolded.
"Haha, not too early, not too late, just right." Sun Ran smiled and asked, "Where's Raphael?"
"He accidentally got poisoned while in the hotel and returned to heaven." Gabriel sighed.
"Oh, it seems like the situation is very dangerous." Sun Ran was startled.
Gabriel nodded and looked at Sun Ran's luggage. He reached out and took out a bamboo tube. With a little force, the bamboo tube split from the middle, revealing an iron sword.
"It's good that you brought a sword, but can your body use sword skills?" Gabriel asked. She knew that Odin had powerful martial arts. But his current body has not been trained, has no physical fitness, and is not strong.
His body is too weak to fight.
"Of course." Sun Ran smiled and said: "I have been exercising and I am in good health. I can deal with more than a dozen formal knights without any problem. And I also brought a bow."
Gabriel closed the bamboo tube, put it back into his bag, and nodded: "That's good. The situation is very complicated now. The forces of both sides are intertwined in this city, and those dark angels have used all means. To kill Maria, the mother of the Son of God,
We have fought secretly many times. So far, nine of the ten guardian angels sent by the Lord have been destroyed! In the surrounding area, including me, there are only two angels left."
"It should be three. I'm already here, right?" Sun Ran said with a smile.
He jumped off the donkey's back, took out a bamboo tube as a walking stick, took out a bow disguised as a lyre and put it on his back, then gently patted the donkey's butt and said with a smile: "Man, you have completed your task.
Find a place to rest. Be careful not to be slaughtered and eaten.",
The donkey howled a few times and ran away. Sun Ran didn't have to worry about getting rid of him. The Dragon of Order would let someone adopt it, and then at the critical moment, it would run back to help.
"Then let's go now, take me around and see what's going on around me." Sun Ran said with a smile, leaning on a cane.
"Hmm~ Anyone else would be unhappy when encountering this situation. Lucifer may take advantage of this, so be careful." Sun Ran said.
"Okay." Gabriel nodded and continued: "There were rumors in the city a few days ago. An astrologer predicted that the future King of Bethlehem would be born in the city. The current King Herods is a man who has an incomparable grasp of royal power.
An obsessive person, he will not allow anyone to threaten his throne, not even an infant, or even an unborn child."
"Oh~" Sun Ran pondered, and then said: "In that case, we can't stay in this city anymore. Let's take Maria and leave here now."
"I have already done this." Gabriel said: "Joseph is planning to take Maria to leave the city. It will probably be tomorrow."
"Oh, it looks like I'm not too late here, haha." Sun Ran said with a smile.
With that said, the two of them arrived near Joseph's residence.
"Mary is inside, and Joseph is taking care of her now," Gabriel said.
"Just the two of them?"
"No, there is another guardian angel, Maria's mother. She was originally a powerful god named Zeus and was Athena. However, she seemed to be suspicious of the Lord, so she failed to become a Seraph." Gabriel introduced.
"Oh." Sun Ran was relieved: "With her here, there will be no problem."
The two walked around the residence and found nothing unusual. Sun Ran sat down on a street corner, curled up and said: "I saw, this is the most important gap, I will guard this place."
"Okay." Gabriel nodded, and she hurriedly left and stayed in another location.
As time passed, snowflakes continued to float. A thick layer of snowflakes fell on Sun Ran's cloak, and the sky slowly darkened.
Suddenly, Sun Ran's ears moved slightly and he heard the faint sound of horse hoofs in the distance, and then a message from the Dragon of Order came to his mind: "King Herod was bewitched by Lucifer and gave an order to kill the city.
All children under the age of two. The soldiers have set off now, take countermeasures quickly!"
The Dragon of Order not only informed Sun Ran, but also informed Gabriel and Athena of the news.
After coming for a while, the door of Joseph's house opened not far away, and three figures appeared. The old mother played by Athena helped Maria out, and Joseph followed them, holding a carpenter's chisel in his hand, and...
His face looked around him warily.
The three of them hurried out of the door. Sun Ran looked at Athena and saw that she quietly made a few gestures to him. It was sign language, which meant: They were preparing to leave the city now.
Sun Ran stood up, took off the bow on his back and hid it under his cloak, and followed the three of them from a distance to protect them.
After a while, he saw Gabriel in the other direction. She was also fully armed, watching the three figures advancing in the wind and snow from a distance.
"Whoosh~" Suddenly there was a soft sound in the roaring wind. It was a hidden arrow, shooting at Maria.
Sun Ran's body moved in response to his heart, his hand shook, the bowstring rang softly, and two arrows shot out, one intercepted and the other shot towards the assassin.
There was a "pop" sound, the hidden arrow was intercepted, and a "pop" sound was the arrow entering the body, and the assassin was shot to death on the spot.
These sounds were very soft and were covered by the wind and snow. The three of them were unaware and were still moving forward. Only Gabriel in the dark saw all this, was startled for a moment, and then gave a thumbs up to Sun Ran.
To be able to use such archery skills in the wind and snow is really amazing, she couldn't do it.
At this moment, there was the sound of horse hooves behind him. It was the guards chasing after him. Hearing the sound of horse hooves, the number was about ten. Sun Ran did not hesitate. He stood on the side of the street and listened to the sound through the heavy wind and snow.
Position, raise the bow and shoot continuously.
The arrow sank into the wind and snow, and immediately there were sounds of "Uh~", "Plop!", "Ah~" and "Uh".
In less than half a minute, the sound of horse hooves disappeared in the wind and snow, and the figure never appeared. All these cavalrymen were shot to death on the spot. From the beginning to the end, they did not see where their opponents were.
Joseph obviously heard the sound and looked back, but the distance was too far and he could only see a vast expanse of wind and snow, which made him feel very uneasy.
But the strange thing is that no one caught up from the beginning to the end. There seemed to be an extremely powerful force hidden in the wind and snow, which isolated all dangers.
This situation was so weird that Joseph couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that what was in Mary's belly was really the so-called Holy Spirit?"
No one gave him an answer, so he could only continue walking towards the city gate.
The dark places of the city.
The two shadows were discussing in low voices.
"The situation is not good, Michael is here. He used to be Odin, and he was once the king of the highlands, with unparalleled fighting skills. Now he is the most powerful priest in the world, very powerful!"
"No matter how powerful he is, he is just one person. Now that the whole city is rounding him up, the soldiers will soon find out something is wrong. He cannot stop him."
