Chapter 410 Divinity and the Red Moon
Chapter 410 Divinity and the Red Moon
Upon seeing the symbol of the Soul Light Cult, Han's breathing became rapid, and his fists clenched tightly.
He was well aware of his physical condition. When a person is about to die, there are not many things that can make him angry, and the Soul Light Cult is one of them.
When he developed the belief that he would become an extraordinary gravedigger, he began to forget the former Serena.
The only thing he could not forget was that the Soul Light Cult used the so-called miracle of resurrection to pretend to heal seriously ill believers, but in reality, they were overdrawing the life force of these believers and turning them into living corpses after death, making them into bricks for the Soul Light Cathedral.
His wife was among the victims who were turned into zombies.
Every time he dreams of his wife turning into a monster, neither human nor ghost, crawling out of the grave and being killed by his own hands, he wakes up from the nightmare.
Upon seeing the Soullight Cult's symbol again, he almost lost control of his emotions.
But reason told him he had to be patient, and at least know what the Soul Light Cult was planning before he took action.
The burning flames transformed into a door, and a young man pushed open the fiery door, appearing inside the temple.
Wick covered his mouth with a handkerchief, coughed twice, and then introduced himself to everyone:
"Before the miracle guidance ceremony, the world's faith power could not accommodate the descent of the true god, but after President Thompson's improvement, the existing faith was used to open a gap between the plane and the upper realm."
"This is the messenger of the Soul Light Cult—White Wolf. The gods were worried that we would not be able to complete the ritual, so they specially sent the messenger to help us."
The moment Han saw the white wolf, his heart skipped a beat.
The young man named White Wolf did not display any astonishing aura or great power, but the moment Han saw him, he instinctively felt a desire to submit and could not muster the courage to be his enemy.
Ever since Hanl saw through everything and wanted to give up his supernatural abilities, his senses had become exceptionally sharp. He sensed a different kind of aura emanating from the white wolf.
That aura was similar to, yet different from, the aura he exuded over Eileen.
He couldn't explain the specific differences, only that the other party was extremely dangerous and not simple.
White Wolf approached Wick, his expressionless gaze sweeping over the crowd. His eyes lingered briefly on Han, before he asked:
"Are you the archbishop of the Eternal Light Cult?"
Hanl suppressed his hostility and said humbly, "It used to be."
White Wolf nodded slightly, asking no further questions. His gaze continued to move, scanning all five of them before he said softly:
"None of them are useful."
White Wolf's words instantly made the old men at the table look embarrassed, and they were somewhat at a loss for words.
Anger flashed in everyone's eyes, including Han'er's. Putting aside the fact that White Wolf was a messenger of the Soul Light Sect, not their sect's messenger, even if he were, he shouldn't be so arrogant.
Although their abilities were meager, their devotion to the gods far surpassed that of the young man before them!
Simmons, a member of the Forest Cult, was known for his fiery temper and was about to slam his fist on the table and argue with the White Wolf.
Before he could make a move, the white wolf waved his hand, and a layer of silver light shone down, enveloping the group.
Everyone felt a refreshing current flow through their bodies, and the old injuries and illnesses that had plagued them for years were healed by the silver light.
My back doesn't ache anymore, my legs don't hurt anymore, and I feel energetic all over.
Especially for Simmons, given his familiarity with his own body, if he wanted to slam his fist on the table, he would first have to stomp his feet hard on the ground, tighten his waist and abdomen, then lean his entire upper body on the conference table, and after two seconds of gathering strength, use his arms, waist, abdomen and legs at the same time to stand up from the chair in one go.
But now, while his brain was still waiting two seconds to gather its strength, his body had already suddenly stood up, and due to the large movement, he knocked the chair he was sitting on to the ground.
The white wolf didn't look at Simmons. He stretched out his arms, and a stream of air surged from his body, bursting outwards and sweeping across the entire city of Serina.
Han and his companions were closest to the white wolf and were the first to feel the airflow. The airflow passed through their bodies, and the supernatural power that had been depleted within them was revitalized.
Under the power of the White Wolf, Serena, who had fallen into a state of supernatural decline, regained his supernatural abilities.
Once all the areas of Serena were transformed, the White Wolf retracted his outstretched arms and had time to deal with Simmons.
"Is something wrong?"
Simmons, who had intended to slam his fist on the table and berate the White Wolf, froze in place.
Sensing the miraculous changes brought about by the white wolf, Simmons made a decisive move and shouted:
"God has made you right, I am worthless!"
White Wolf: "Understood."
Simmons sat down awkwardly, not daring to say anything more, and behaved exceptionally obediently.
After completing the preliminary preparations, White Wolf addressed the group:
“I used my divine power to mobilize the remaining faith power in this city, temporarily restoring the city to normal. By evening, you will be able to transform back into superhumans and use your full power.”
"I will assign you tasks and place you at key points of the ceremony to ensure the smooth progress of the miracle ceremony."
"This is your only value. Don't mess it up. Once the passage to the divine realm is reopened, the gods you worship will be able to send down miracles through the passage."
Upon hearing White Wolf's words, both the five archbishops at the conference table and Wick's servants inside the temple showed expressions of ecstasy.
Only Hanl's mouth was practically stretched to the back of his head, but there was no smile in his eyes.
No, his gaze suddenly noticed that even Wick, the one in control of Serina, showed no smile, only the indifference of an observer.
Before Hanl could confirm, Wick felt his gaze and turned around.
The moment their eyes met, they were filled with unbridled joy.
There is a problem, absolutely there is a problem.
As afternoon approached, the white wolf, acting as a messenger of the gods, set up a ceremony in the city of Serina.
To trigger a miracle, it is not enough to simply rely on the believers brought by the capital; the dormant power within this once holy city must be unleashed.
Han and his group were tasked with finding once-glorious sects and using these locations as nodes for rituals to extract the remaining power of faith.
After being healed by the white wolf and regaining their superhuman powers, Han and the others have regained their mobility, but Wick still arranged a carriage for them.
Wick arranged separate carriages for Simmons and the others, but he left Hanl with them.
On the carriage, Han asked:
"Archbishop Wick, is there something you need to ask me to stay?"
Wick smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that you're different from them."
"What's the difference between us?" Han asked guiltily, worried that Wick had seen through his desire to sever ties with the supernatural.
Wick said calmly, "The god you worship is real, while the gods they worship are fake."
Hanl was taken aback by Wick's bluntness and didn't know how to respond.
The carriage continued forward, carrying the two to survey the situation in the city of Serena. Wick looked out the window, his face ashen, as if he were deep in thought.
Wick's behavior made Han uneasy, unsure of what the other party wanted, so he probed:
"Archbishop Wick, the divine revelation you mentioned earlier, was it from a deity of the Soullight Cult?"
Wick turned his gaze from the window and replied:
"Yes, the Soul Light Cult, as a cult capable of performing miracles, also worships a true god."
“Religions with true gods have a wide spread of faith. Like the Eternal Light Church, the Soul Light Church also has a large number of believers in the capital. President Thompson converted to the Soul Light Church.”
Han continued, "Since you can discern whether a true God exists, why don't you convert to the Soul Light Cult and instead stick to the Spirit Medicine Cult?"
Wick didn't answer immediately. He remained silent for a while, long enough for Hanl to realize how offensive his question had been and prepare to apologize before Wick finally spoke:
"Isn't it more worthwhile to be a part of the faith and be remembered by people than to be a believer in a god?"
Hanl paused for a moment, then asked, "What did you say?"
Wick shook his head and said, "It's nothing, you've forgotten."
As the sun gradually set, a group of people appeared outside the city of Serina.
Dressed like former ascetics, carrying simple bags, they appeared outside the city of Serina, led by a middle-aged man.
There are a great many of these people; by visual estimation, there are about two or three thousand.
Selina hadn't seen so many people in a long time, let alone so many believers.
They are the main source of faith tonight.
Two or three thousand people may seem like a lot, but those present here are almost all the believers that the capital city could muster.
The Kingdom of Mikel, once a place where every person had a believer, now has only two or three thousand followers, a stark contrast that clearly demonstrates the decline of faith.
Before they even entered the city, several of the accompanying superhumans let out groans of pleasure as the superhuman power within them was awakened by the abilities displayed by the white wolf.
One of the extraordinary individuals moved swiftly, appearing before the middle-aged man in an instant, and said:
"President Thompson, we've arrived in Serina. The divine revelation was right; reaching the Holy City truly will restore our supernatural powers!" Thompson turned to the people behind him and said, "We've arrived at the Holy City from the divine revelation. Is there anyone who hasn't memorized the ritual diagrams I showed you along the way?"
Seeing that no one spoke, Thompson said, "Very well, then let's begin our journey into Serina. Tonight we will witness a miracle, and at the same time, the descent of the gods!"
A multitude of believers poured into Serina. Without any additional command, they neatly dispersed into five groups and, led by the superhumans, headed towards five different areas within the city.
At this moment, Selina is divided into five areas: east, west, south, north, and center, with six ritual nodes selected from each area.
Led by the superhuman, they first found Simmons and his group in the area, and then, led by several archbishops, arrived at the dilapidated church that served as the ritual site.
They arranged themselves around the church, following the pre-arranged formation.
The archbishops couldn't understand the meaning behind the arrangement of the crowd, but they instinctively felt a sense of unease from it.
After helping the visiting believers determine the timing of the ceremony, the five archbishops returned to the church under their jurisdiction. Upon their return, they discovered that the believers they had gathered, at White Wolf's request, had also formed a similar formation to that of the visiting believers.
Foreign believers occupy six ritual nodes in each area, plus the five remaining sects in Serina, and the ruins of the Church of Souls of Light in the center of Serina, forming a total of thirty-six ritual nodes.
From an aerial view, the thirty-six ritual nodes, together with the believers forming a formation, outline a mystical array drawn by human hands.
Hanl stood in the Eternal Light Church, looking at the more than one hundred believers around the church, his eyes filled with worry.
Although these believers were followers of the Eternal Light Cult, after coming into contact with the White Wolf, they seemed to be possessed, standing straight in their places, motionless.
Even when Archbishop Hanl asked them to rest for a while, they seemed not to hear him.
After the thirty-six ritual points were arranged, it was completely dark.
Before Hanl could speak, the believers standing outside all took out a torch and lit it.
Hanl looked into the distance and saw that at that moment, countless torches were lit in the city of Serina. The orderly flames revealed a sense of holiness, but within this holiness, there was also a hint of eeriness.
Before Hanl could recover from the scene before him, a voice suddenly appeared behind him.
"Wow, it's so lively! Hanl, did you call us here just to see this festival?"
Han turned around following the sound and saw Wu Chang and Eileen appear behind him at some point.
A few days ago, he would not have wanted the two of them to leave that two-story building and appear in front of the crowd. He was afraid that someone would recognize Eileen as the Light of Eternity and start believing in miracles again.
But now it's different. Seeing the two of them appear now, he felt as if he had seen the saviors of this world.
"You are finally here."
Wu Chang looked around curiously and said:
"Let me see what's going on outside: a mystical ritual, the power of the Root, and a trace of..."
Wu Chang and Eileen exchanged a glance, and then Wu Chang said, "There is still a trace of divine power."
"Seven days have passed, and Serina is unrecognizable. Han, can you tell me what happened?"
Wu Chang used Eileen's lap pillow to relieve the mental strain of researching the power of the mystical roots. He learned that Han Er had come to him with a heavy heart, so he immediately began to examine the things Han Er had left behind.
Besides the daily necessities, Han left behind a note that said if he did not return before dark, Wu Chang and Eileen should perform a miracle.
Wu Chang looked at the contents of the note, somewhat puzzled. Han Er had been the guardian of the supernatural's tomb not long ago, so why did he suddenly want the supernatural to reappear?
After leaving his residence, he discovered that Han was at the Eternal Light Church, so he took Eileen to find Han and asked him what was going on.
But as soon as he approached Han, before he could even ask any questions, he discovered that Serena's situation was unusual.
Han told Wu Chang about everything that had happened during this time, including Wick receiving divine revelation, the miracle he caused in conjunction with Thompson, and the appearance of the messenger from the Church of Soul Light today.
Wu Chang didn't think much of what he heard before, but his expression changed when he heard that it was the envoy of the Soul Light Sect.
If he remembered correctly, the Soullight Cult was the name the Tranquility Cult used in the Midnight Graveyard plane.
Was the messenger of the Soul Light Cult sent by Lyman?
The Midnight Graveyard plane has been blank for thirty years, and the long-term lack of miracles has caused even extraordinary powers to begin to decline.
But not long after he entered the instance, Lyman immediately sent people in, which didn't seem like a coincidence.
Just as he was pondering what Lyman was up to, there was a commotion outside the church.
A piercing whistle rang out in the silent night sky.
Wu Chang subconsciously looked up and saw the crescent moon, which had been chipped off by Eileen, moving to the highest point in the sky.
thump.
At the sound of the whistle, the believers who stood like statues outside knelt down in unison, facing the center of Selina, in a posture of worship.
They were muttering incantations, reciting unknown scriptures.
As the scriptures were recited, the believers' expressions became distorted, as if they were suffering some kind of great pain, but they could not stop reciting the scriptures and could only continue.
Through his Eye of Breaking the Law, Wu Chang could see that the life force, faith power, and emotional power of pain within them were being forcibly extracted by the so-called miracle-guided ritual.
The energy that was forcibly extracted flowed through the mystical ritual and converged at two central nodes, one large and one small, within the ritual.
At the major central node, the ruins of the Soul Light Cathedral in the center of Serina, the divine power that Wu Chang had previously sensed was thriving within it as faith power was infused.
It seems that a divine seed is sprouting with the help of faith.
Another small central node is located in the Medicine Cathedral where Wick is located, and the cathedral's surface emits a faint light of faith.
The light of faith and the moonlight of the waning moon in the sky seem to form some kind of connection, with the small central node drawing the moon overhead downwards.
In addition to attracting the moon to its lower position, it also projects the suffering of the believers in the ritual onto the waning moon, causing it to turn pale red.
interesting.
However, it's only somewhat interesting.
The power within the Cathedral of Spirit Medicine was not even at the level of Root Power and posed no threat. He was more concerned about the Soul Light Envoy at the Great Central Node.
Wu Chang pointed to the center of Serina City and said, "You stay here and don't move. I'll go see what's happening over there. Don't worry, I won't let the Soul Light Cult succeed in creating a miracle."
Han'er understood Wu Chang's meaning and asked, "After you deal with them, won't you take over the faith here?"
Wu Chang shook his head and said, "I promised that I would not create miracles for this world."
Hanl's brow twitched slightly. He looked in the direction of the Church of the Elixir of Life and said, "If that's the case, I'd like to go take a look over there."
Wu Chang frowned slightly, wanting to stop Han Er, but Han Er immediately said:
"As a survivor of the Age of Miracles, I want to settle things with him personally, and since I'm going to be an extraordinary tomb keeper, I want to personally add the last shovelful of soil."
Wu Chang hesitated for a moment, but considering that Han Er didn't have much time left, he decided to let Han Er do what he wanted in the last moments of his life.
However, before Hanl took action, he said, "Since you're going to put the last shovelful of dirt on the Extraordinary, how can you do it without a shovel?"
As he spoke, he activated the power of the Tree of Miracles.
"Item Skill: Miracle"
"Skill Description: Consumes willpower to trigger a small-scale miracle, fulfilling the user's wish. If the willpower is insufficient to support the wish's fulfillment, forcibly activating the wish will bring some uncertain negative effects."
As the true owner of the Eternal Light Church, with Eileen present, the divine guidance ceremony could not possibly steal the accumulated power of vows here.
The intercepted willpower was now poured into the Tree of Miracles, transforming into a beam of light that fell upon Han'er.
After the light faded, Hanl's eyes became exceptionally resolute.
He clenched his fists, feeling the changes in his body. He didn't feel any obvious improvement in his physical body, but he felt that he possessed infinite power.
What have you done?
Wu Chang shrugged and said, "It just gave you a little more courage."
The miraculous effect triggered by Wu Chang was simple: it raised Han'er's Willpower attribute to fifty points.
Immediately afterwards, he took out the Light of Steadfastness that Eileen had replaced from his personal space and handed it to Hanl.
Han recognized the hammer; it was the very hammer that Eileen had used to shatter the First Miracle.
He gripped the hammer tightly, bowed to Wu Chang and Eileen, and then ran towards the Church of the Spirit Medicine with the hammer in his hand.
