The Great Arcanist Who Traveled Through the World of American Variety Shows.

Chapter 652: In the End
A golden light curtain enveloped the palace where Richard lived in the imperial palace.

Seeing this scene, the polytheistic priests who had just arrived to support were furious.

"Monotheism, you deserve to die!" The high priest of the polytheism was furious. After seeing this barrier of divine power, he immediately understood that today's assassination was completely led by Monotheism.

Obviously, this time the Monotheism decided to take a risk and assassinate the emperor of the empire once again.

The last time polytheism was completely defeated by monotheism was because the emperor of the empire was assassinated. All of them became rats crossing the street, living in constant fear.

Now those bastards from the monotheistic religions dare to use the same old tricks again.

The last time they were able to succeed was because although Julian was the emperor, he did not possess the unparalleled prestige and power like Richard.

That's why the Monotheism was able to seize the opportunity and quickly take control of the situation after assassinating Julian. But Richard was different. If the Monotheism did this, it would inevitably be met with a crazy counterattack from the Empire regardless of success or failure.

But the problem now is that their polytheism has failed twice in this matter. This is unforgivable.

Once something happens to Richard, even if the Monotheism is destroyed, it will be an unacceptable loss for them!

"Send an order. The Monotheism has rebelled. Have someone notify the central prime ministers to deal with it."

"Also, send someone to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. His Royal Highness's safety must be guaranteed!"

Following his order, several polytheistic priests around him immediately led their men to protect the crown prince. The high priest took a deep breath and said, "The monotheistic religion is now desperate!"

"It's just that you, the Monotheistic Church, dare to fight to the death. Don't we, the Polytheistic Church, dare to do so?"

The high priest looked at the golden barrier in front of him and said solemnly: "Is the Thunder Spear ready?"

"It has been brought." said another priest nearby.

This Thunder Spear is not the real artifact in Zeus's hand. That artifact is now held by Athena. This Thunder Spear is a replica of Athena's divine power.

However, although it is a replica, after incorporating Athena's divine power and a large amount of power of faith, this weapon has become a powerful holy object.

This holy object was specially prepared by Athena for polytheism to counter the holy objects of monotheism.

This time, after seeing that the monotheistic religion once again resorted to assassination, the polytheistic religion directly took out the holy objects and prepared to go to war with the monotheistic religion.

Divine barrier.

The two saints created this divine barrier directly at the cost of the gods, covering Richard's so-called palace. The Monotheistic people had no time to pray for the two martyred saints, and they had to get rid of Richard as quickly as possible.

So, after the divine barrier rose up, he quickly rushed into the palace.

The palace was not as heavily guarded as they had imagined. On the contrary, there were no soldiers guarding the palace at all. Everyone should have been very happy about this scene, but they felt something was wrong.

"You are finally here!" a voice suddenly sounded.

"Who?" St. George, the leader, asked with a serious expression.

"Aren't you here to find me?" Richard appeared in front of everyone.

"Your Majesty, you should be very clear about our purpose. If you can swear in the name of God, swear to believe in monotheism, and make monotheism the state religion, we can retreat today." St. George said solemnly.

Richard gave him a mocking look, then said, "Do you still have a chance to retreat?"

"At this point, you have absolutely no chance!"

"Don't try to fool me with these little tricks."

"It seems that His Majesty the Emperor is determined to have his own way!" said St. George.

"Do you think you can win this time?" Richard smiled at everyone and said, "You succeeded in assassinating Emperor Julian last time, but do you think we will repeat the same mistake?"

"Your Majesty, you have no chance!" Saint George said nothing and took out the Spear of Longinus. Then, one holy object after another burst into golden light.

The twelve saints gathered all their strength together at this moment, intending to completely destroy Richard, the destiny of the Roman Empire, and the throne of the Emperor!

Figures emerged one after another.

Behind them, a huge and magnificent gate appeared in the light and shadow. It was the legendary Gate of Heaven. One after another, phantoms appeared and then merged into the bodies of these saints. The twelve saints named after themselves used the power of the holy objects to force the divine power to descend upon the real world.

In the air above these people, natural shadows also appeared in the palace. For today's scene, these people have decided to go all out.

"Is this your trump card? If you have any more, take them out now. It will be too late to have any chance!"

Richard snapped his fingers and a chair appeared behind him. He then poured another glass of wine and looked at everyone leisurely.

The twelve saints of the Holy See forcibly lifted the rules of the world and allowed myths to descend upon the world. This certainly greatly increased their strength, and even some angels were able to descend to the earth, but it also allowed Richard to temporarily be free from the constraints of the world's rules.

Therefore, Richard can now cast almost all spells easily without having to bear any pressure from the world's will, because all the pressure is borne by the smart people on the other side.

"Sure enough, you are not an ordinary person!" Seeing Richard's calm appearance, St. George seemed to understand something instantly.

"How can an ordinary person rebuild such a glorious empire? You must be a descendant of the gods of polytheism, a demigod!"

"No wonder you were able to build such an empire. But this should be the last of the polytheistic religion. After we get rid of you, the polytheistic religion will be swept into the dustbin of history!"

"It's time to end everything!" As St. George's words fell, the Spear of Longinus in his hand, like a flash of lightning, crossed the sky and instantly appeared in front of Richard.

This weapon, which was once used to kill the Savior, became a holy relic after being stained with the Savior's blood. It is also the most powerful offensive holy relic of the Church.

It has lightning speed and the ability to hit the target. If it is pierced with a wound, it will basically kill you. However, this holy spear that once killed the savior's human body and Julian stopped in front of Richard.

A magical force of time blocked its way.

No matter how this holy object struggles, it cannot break through the limitations of time.

Although this holy object is powerful, it is not a divine weapon after all, and it does not transcend the laws of time. In the end, it was easily blocked by Richard.

Then, in the horrified eyes of everyone, Richard actually reached out and took the weapon in his hand.

"This is the Spear of Longinus." Richard looked at the weapon in his hand. This weapon could only be considered a legendary weapon at best, but it contained the law of cause and effect.

It was this law of cause and effect that made this weapon sublime in essence. "You actually blocked the Holy Spear." Saint George was shocked, and the other saints' faces also changed drastically.

"Not good, pray to the Lord, please give me strength!"

Seeing this scene, everyone spoke without thinking. Immediately, the holy objects in everyone's hands burst into powerful power. The gate of heaven, which was originally just a phantom, actually began to solidify under this power. The kingdom of God in the sky was about to descend at this moment.

"It's time to end this farce!" Richard looked at the people in front of him and shook his head slightly.

"The Twelve Saints? Haha!" Richard smiled slightly, then stretched out his hand to grab everyone, only to see that the divine power in the bodies of the most powerful saints, Saint George and Saint Henry, was actually drawn out by Richard.

As the two most powerful of the Twelve Saints, they had no ability to resist at this moment. When Richard gave them the power of saints, he had already left a backup plan in their bodies.

St. George and St. Henry felt that their bodies were completely out of control, and the divine power that they used to control with their arms had no response at all.

"Lord, please forgive my sins, give me strength, and let me defeat evil~!" Feeling the changes in his body, St. George immediately prayed loudly, wanting to obtain the Lord's power and blessing.

But their master could not come to the world, and the power in their bodies was quickly drained under Richard's control. The divine power was drained, and their bodies also aged rapidly at this moment.

In just a few moments, his originally strong body turned into an old man in his seventies or eighties. He looked like an ordinary old man.

When the ten saints behind saw this scene, their faces suddenly changed.

"Devil, you will not succeed. The Lord will always shine upon the world!"

Before he finished speaking, the scarab in his hand kept cracking, and with a bang, it turned into countless golden lights. At the same time, the cross, crown of thorns, holy nails and other holy objects in the hands of the saints next to him also exploded at this moment.

The powerful divine power almost condensed into substance.

Then these divine powers merged into the Gate of Heaven behind him.

"Boom!"

The heavy metal door slowly opened, and the next second angels flew out one after another. Each of these angels was handsome and extraordinary, with golden light covering their bodies, a pair of white wings behind their backs, and a cross sword in their hands.

“God said: Let there be light!”

A ray of light fell directly from the sky and instantly landed on Richard, but the light stopped completely one meter above Richard's head and did not move forward at all.

The remaining angels quickly performed the same trick, but the result was the same.

These angels, summoned by the saints at a huge cost, were unable to help them defeat Richard.

[Angel: Divine creature; Messenger of another world (Legendary); (Monotheism); (Blessed by God) (Prayer) (Reincarnation) (Descend) (Hostile)]

"It's over!"

--exile!
A ray of spiritual light suddenly burst out, and the six angels who had just rushed up to fight Richard were hit by this force in an instant.

The next second, the divine power that originally surrounded them quickly disappeared. However, in just a short moment, these angels who forcibly broke the rules and came to the world were wrapped by a powerful force and then thrown directly into the gap between time and space.

In the blink of an eye, all six angels disappeared.

These creatures were not originally from this world, they only came here with the power of God, and now they have been exiled outside the world again by Richard.

Seeing this scene, the saints couldn't believe that the angel they had placed high hopes on was defeated so easily.

After dealing with these angels, Richard also blocked back the angels and the gate to heaven that these saints had just summoned at the cost of sacrificing holy objects.

The gate of heaven was sealed directly, and the angels could only watch but were unable to descend.

"I'll give you this Spear of Longinus now!" Richard raised his hand and threw back the most powerful holy object of the Monotheistic Church. However, these saints did not have the strength of Richard.

Moreover, they had already exhausted all their divine power when they summoned the Gate of Heaven just now, and they had no power to resist the Spear of Longinus.

However, the spear went straight through the body of a saint, and without slowing down, it went through the saint behind him.

Directly nailed the two saints together.

Immediately afterwards, Richard stretched out his hand and a thunderous sound was heard. The next second, a lightning spear appeared and shot towards the remaining saints.

Rumble, boom, boom. The remaining saints had no power to fight back at all. One after another, they were turned into charcoal by the lightning spears.

"Boom!"

There was a muffled thunder, and the next second, the divine barrier that originally covered the outside of the palace shattered, and then an agile figure rushed in.

"Your Majesty, I am here to protect you!"

"Monotheism, your doom is here!"

The leader was the high priest of polytheism, but when the high priest who had just rushed in saw the scene inside, he was stunned for a moment.

He had thought about it countless times in his mind, but what he saw before him was more explosive than anything he had imagined.

No matter how optimistic he was, he never imagined that twelve saints of the Holy See would be killed without any resistance, while His Majesty the Emperor would be unharmed.

What is going on? What is the monotheistic religion doing? These are the twelve saints. The monotheistic religion once overpowered the saints of the polytheistic religions, but now they are being slaughtered one by one like chickens. Is this how it is solved?
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" The high priest asked in disbelief after seeing what was happening in front of him.

"I'm fine." Richard said with a smile.

"Since you are here, it's your turn to do the rest. I'm going to go back and rest!" Richard waved to these people, then got up and left.

The polytheistic priests and palace guards all saluted Richard.

Then start dealing with the monotheistic religions in front of you.

At the same time, along with the assassination of Monotheism, the whole of Rome also became mobilized, and soon the news that Monotheism was the mastermind behind this assassination spread throughout Rome.

When people in Rome heard the news, they were all in disbelief, but soon more accurate news came.

The empire directly ordered that monotheism was a cult, and preaching was prohibited in the empire. All believers must convert. If they were unwilling, they would be directly expelled from the country.
