Without the heroic sacrifice of the Pope, perhaps the fate of Horleta's entire civilization would have been completely different.
Although the giant captured by Hao Ren belonged to the "rational faction", he still had the idea of destroying the Horleta civilization before he was stopped. It can be said that the guardian was in an extremely dangerous state of swing at that time.
, destroying or letting go of this planet can be decided by him in a single thought. The Pope's sacrifice pushed this critical point, allowing the Guardian to truly give up the meaningless reckoning and revenge. Mentioning such a true
Hao Ren respected the old man who shouldered great righteousness from the bottom of his heart.
There are not many decorations in the simple darkroom. Only the religious artifacts of the Huiyao Sect and a few simple living utensils can be seen everywhere. A simple wooden table filled with manuscripts and files is placed against the wall on one side of the room.
In the center of the room is the distinctive black and red abstract icon painting, but there is nothing else in the room. Archbishop Auburn was the last person to visit this room before the Pope was martyred.
At the same time, as the acting pope appointed by the church to take over the power urgently after the unexpected death of the pope, he also came here as soon as possible to sort out the pope's relics.
"The Pope should have understood the guidance of the goddess from the icon paintings," Bishop Auburn pointed to the abstract oil painting in the center of the room. "The goddess warned us that no matter what happens, we must not stop thinking, because everything in the world
The occurrence and evolution of all things have their reasons.”
Then he picked up a piece of parchment from the table next to him: "This is the note left by the Pope before his martyrdom. No one else has read it yet. It is for you."
Hao Ren subconsciously took the parchment. He found that the handwriting on the paper was very new and the smell of ink had not yet dissipated. He asked curiously: "If you don't show it to those bishops, why don't you show it to us outsiders first?"
"The Pope left a special message for me." Bishop Auburn spread his hands and showed the note he found when he came here to sort out the relics. "Under the guidance of the goddess, he has understood everything. He mentioned that if the foreigners
Mentioning a conspiracy to kill the gods, then I will hand over his manuscript to you, because the gift of the goddess has appeared in you. Look at the manuscript, it is specially written for you."
Hao Ren was about to read the manuscript when he heard Archbishop Auburn's words and was immediately shocked. He never expected that the Pope would leave these behind before he was martyred! Could it be that the old man had a premonition in the last ten minutes of his life that the Gentiles would
Did he learn the truth from ten thousand years ago from the guardian? Or... there was really a goddess with powerful supernatural powers who told him all this and guided him to leave these things behind?!
No matter what the truth was, he realized that this manuscript was extraordinary, and an inexplicable sense of urgency urged him to read it quickly:
"Gentiles, by the time you read this letter, I must have been called by God. I regret that I have to tell you something in this way, but time is running out and I have no other choice.
"I saw your arrival in the vision descended by the goddess, the leader of the foreigners, Hao Ren. I can't describe the scene of the vision, because it is beyond the scope of mortal understanding. I saw light, flames, and stars. You stand there.
In the midst of this, the blessings of the goddess surround you. This should be an omen. The goddess is conveying her will in this way, and you are the chosen one. You and your friends must be closely related to the goddess,
Although time has not allowed me to understand the full content of this omen. But I believe in my judgment and if my judgment is correct, you will also know the truth.
"Ten thousand years ago, our ancestors committed a terrible crime, the evil of which is beyond description..."
What is written after this is exactly the God-killing incident ten thousand years ago. The Pope somehow "enlightened" the truth out of thin air. Although it was information obtained through enlightenment, his description has many ambiguities and contradictions.
, but Hao Ren could still see that what the Pope said and what the giant said were exactly the same thing.
He already knew this part of the information, so after skimming it he quickly turned to the end. The content of the last few paragraphs made him frown:
"...The sins of the past are unforgivable, but just as night and day are inseparable, there is hope left in the disaster. I saw in the vision that when the conspiracy enveloped the starry sky, the power of the goddess split, and she became
Sleeping in the depths of this universe in a form that mortals cannot understand, she gave me a sign and made me understand the immortality of God. The atrocities of the traitors can only make the Lord sleep temporarily, but they are far from being able to truly kill a person.
A god.
"For thousands of years, Huiyao believers' prayers to the goddess have never failed. We can always feel that a great will still protects all things in the world. This is the power of the goddess. Therefore, we should firmly believe that the goddess has not truly fallen. She
The remaining parts must still be hidden somewhere.
The miracles left by the goddess still walk on the earth, and the glory of God will one day return to this world.
"Foreigners, I was inspired by the omen sent by the goddess. However, I know very well that our world and our civilization cannot respond to the goddess's expectations. But I see in you the way to realize this omen. Perhaps everything is deep in the starry sky.
The answer is that in the vision given by the goddess, you stand in the light of the starry sky, so I implore you, please accept my last request: to find her and awaken our mother.
"If you can really see this letter, it must be guidance from God."
Hao Ren read the contents of the message with a serious face. As soon as he finished reading, Lily grabbed him and said, "Hey, let me take a look, let me take a look!"
Lily, Nangong Wuyue and the other three people who were just joining in the fun were all lying in a pile on the table. When they looked around, they saw three tails of different shapes dangling there like dogtails. Vivian was looking around.
He looked on with his head tilted, and then poked Lily's back with his nails for a long time: "What did you see?"
"It's nothing," Lily flicked her tail, "What the Pope said is no different from what we guessed before. He was talking about the reverberation left behind after the death of the goddess."
"No, if it was just the reverberation, he wouldn't have left such a serious message," Yzaks said in a muffled voice with his arms folded. Taking advantage of his height, he could read the contents of the letter without having to poke his head over.
Finished, "According to the content of the message, the Pope obviously had a breakthrough connection with the power of the goddess while meditating. He may have really come into contact with something essential...probably the sleeping goddess."
"You said the goddess is really alive?" Lily's eyes widened, "Not reverberant, but really... alive?!"
Vivian glanced sideways at Husky and pointed to the original words on the parchment: "Keep your eyes open and look. The Pope has made it clear that the goddess sleeps deep in the universe in a form that mortals cannot understand. Since it can be used
The word "sleeping" shows that he really witnessed the goddess's condition with his own eyes. You must know that the original teachings of the Huiyao Sect never mentioned that the goddess was in poor condition."
Lily didn't listen to the second half of Vivian's words at all. She just stared hard: "I'm staring!"
Everyone: "..."
"Why is this Husky's thinking always different from others..." Hao Ren covered his forehead and sighed, then put the parchment away properly, "In short, this matter must be taken seriously, regardless of whether the Pope's meaning is Lao Wang's guess or not.
As such, we should all continue to trace the whereabouts of the goddess."
Hao Ren's initial goal was to track down the whereabouts of the Goddess of Creation, but after learning that this god had fallen 10,000 years ago, he almost gave up on this idea. However, now that he saw the Pope's message, the hope in his heart suddenly disappeared
Ignited again: The true God is immortal!
He was shocked by the atrocities of the "rebellious son" before, and actually thought that the goddess had been wiped out with only a trace of her soul left. But now that he calmed down and thought about it, he realized various doubts: According to the giant, the goddess was being killed.
There were no real witnesses at the moment of death, because the goddess and the entire Founding Star were exiled to an abnormal space called the "Dark Realm" in a big explosion, and the guardians were either
Those who were caught in the explosion could not survive, or they could only watch from a distance, and no one really saw the death of the goddess.
That means the goddess may really be alive!
"It's a pity that the Pope is dead," Nangong Wudi sighed, "otherwise you must ask him what he saw during meditation. I'm sure he saw more than that, but there are many things that cannot be passed through.
Language and writing make it clear.”
"Now I sincerely hope that all the teachings of the Glory Sect are true," Yzaks also sighed, "so that the Pope's soul can really return to the goddess, which will also be a comfort to him. That is a
Respectable human beings who are willing to risk their lives for their own beliefs remind me of my old friends..."
Archbishop Auburn solemnly made a religious gesture on his chest: "The soul under the Pope's crown will inevitably return to the embrace of the goddess. Please do not doubt this."
"Doubtless or not," Hao Ren smiled and nodded to the archbishop, "I agree to this matter. We will continue to pursue it until we find your goddess and wake her up. If she is really just sleeping."
Lily blinked and looked over: "Because of the guidance of gods?"
Hao Ren curled his lips: "Because of the guidelines in the work manual..."
