While the little witch was strolling out, Shenkong watched the development of the vampire group for a while.
That's great. If he hadn't come to cause trouble, maybe no one would have noticed that Romania had completely turned into a city of vampires.
The situation in Romania is very complicated now. Most of the country's top leaders have been transformed into vampires, and only a small number of people are still kept in the dark.
There are also various vampire groups at the lowest level. They were vampires that were transformed from vampire bats and are considered wild vampires.
The upper-class vampires naturally know everything about the lower-class vampires, but the lower-class vampires have no idea that there are other vampires besides them.
In this environment, only the middle and lower classes of Romanian citizens were clueless and did not notice any other changes in Romania.
Although Romania became part of the European Union thirty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the economic development over the past thirty years has only allowed Romanians living in cities like the capital Bucharest to live a prosperous life.
Because of the extreme imbalance in urban and rural development, poverty, backwardness and feudalism remain the main theme of life for most people in this country.
Apart from their families, not many people care about the humans who disappeared after being hunted by vampires. Therefore, the vampires have not revealed any clues until now.
In Romania, however, there are huge problems with communication between the government and the church, and there are complex power relations between them.
After all, in a country where 99% of the population believe in religion, there will always be layers of conflicts between the government and religion.
That is why Shenkong left and came to the Romanian Orthodox Church, a religious group with about 1980 million believers, second only to the Lucia Orthodox Church.
"Let me see, how can we curb the development of vampires?"
Muttering to himself, Shenkong walked into the Orthodox Church headquarters in a swagger, his demeanor as natural as if he had returned home.
………………
Inside the magnificent church, the head of the church, Patriarch Danny, wearing a pure white robe, an intricate necklace on his chest and holding a cane, is walking towards the holy statue of God.
Under the milky white light, the statue of the Holy Spirit of the Trinity with a kind face seems to be looking at his believers with his eyes that transcend time and space.
Patriarch Danny walked to the statue of the Holy Spirit, knelt gently, and waited quietly for a moment until his heart was free of clutter.
"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread..."
"Lord, we thank you, because the kingdom, authority, and glory are all yours. Lord, we thank you for lifting us up from the dust and separating us from all nations with your name so that we can become your children. Lord..."
As the Patriarch, Danny needs to pray every day. He is different from ordinary people because he is the human being closest to God.
The Patriarch was immersed in thought and felt that his prayer today was different from the previous ones. He could even feel as if his whole body was really bathed in holy light.
"Oh...dear Lord~"
Patriarch Danny opened his eyes which were now filled with tears. He had never felt that his daily prayers could be so moving.
This was something he had never felt before. His whole body and mind were cheering for joy, and they were all praising the great Lord together. It was like being bathed in the spring breeze, and his body and mind were moved.
"Danny~Danny..."
The ethereal and distant voice seemed to come from the end of the void, which made Patriarch Danny, who was feeling moved, slightly stunned.
"Who? Who is calling me?" Patriarch Danny asked in doubt.
"Danny~Danny..."
The ethereal voice did not answer. The voice sounded like both a man and a woman, neither a man nor a woman, and it was impossible to identify it at all.
Before Patriarch Danny could answer, a golden but not dazzling, bright yet warm light descended from the sky, covering the entire interior of the cathedral, eclipsing all other lights around it.
Patriarch Danny, who was surrounded by bright light, stared at everything that suddenly happened with wide eyes. The light was not dazzling, but it was extremely bright.
This incongruous feeling made Patriarch Danny's breathing become lighter, his heart pounding, and he watched all this in disbelief.
"Danny~Danny..."
The sound came from far away and gradually approached from the sky. An indescribable figure appeared in the sky. There was no shadow because the light was emanating from that figure.
"God...angel!"
Attracted by the sound, Patriarch Danny looked up into the sky and saw a huge, indescribable sacred creature.
"I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up. The train of his garment filled the temple. Above him stood seraphim, each with six wings. With two wings he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he was flying."
For some reason, a passage from the Book of Isaiah suddenly popped into Patriarch Danny's mind.
Chapter 227 Seraph's Wing
"Each of the four living creatures had six wings, and they were full of eyes all over their bodies and outside. They kept saying day and night, 'Holy, holy, holy, the Lord God Almighty, who was and who is to come.'" - The Revelation of John
Patriarch Danny's face was full of sincerity, and clear tears flowed from his cloudy eyes. Even though his eyes had become cloudy due to aging, they could not obscure the light in his eyes.
Angel, he saw an angel!
This was different from the angel of wisdom that he had heard about before. This was an angel that really appeared before his eyes, and it was a Seraph of the "Divine Class", the highest level in the heavenly order!
The Seraph has no fixed shape, a red face, a body of fire, and six wings, two of which cover the face, two cover the feet, and the other two are used for flying.
Holding a flaming holy fan with the words "Holy, Holy, Holy" engraved on it, the Seraphim praises God endlessly and flies around God's throne.
But at this moment, the existence of God chanting the Three Holy Ones actually appeared before his eyes. How could he not be moved to tears of gratitude?
"Danny~Danny..."
“Here is the faithful and humble believer of the Lord!”
Patriarch Danny lowered his gray-haired head and listened to the words of God's messenger with tears on his face.
A voice that seemed distant and yet right next to my ear, ethereal and undifferentiated from male or female, came from the air.
"Darkness and filth grow on the earth, and the abominable demon tempts all living beings to fall."
"Dark creatures appear here. The merciful Lord loves humans and loves to listen to what they say."
"The Lord gives you guidance and protection, and the Lord gives you the power to destroy darkness."
"Thank God, praise God, God is guiding you..."
The voice of the Seraph became smaller and smaller until it disappeared. Patriarch Danny, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head with a pious look on his face.
The Seraphim floating in the air suddenly lost a feather from both of its wings, which were used for flying, and floated towards Patriarch Danny.
Patriarch Danny's eyes were filled with piety. He slowly raised his hands and caught the two feathers that were floating towards him.
In an instant, platinum-colored holy light suddenly bloomed, and the world seemed to have no other colors.
In an instant, Patriarch Danny returned to the interior of the church. The statue of the Holy Spirit under the milky white light seemed even more holy and merciful.
"I... I'm back?"
Patriarch Danny was a little confused and couldn't tell whether what he just saw was a dream or reality.
But the tears on his face were real. He was about to wipe them away, but he felt something else in his hands.
When he lowered his head, he saw two feathers, one in each hand. They were extremely holy and emitted a faint platinum glow.
"This, this, this..."
Seeing this scene, Patriarch Danny could no longer remain calm and tears flowed from his eyes again.
He reverently placed the two feathers in his hands under the statue of the Holy Spirit, then knelt down on his knees and prayed.
"Lord, we really come to call on your holy name and walk with your Spirit in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ..."
Then, after thanking and praying, Patriarch Danny reached out and picked up two Seraph feathers.
In just this instant, something strange happened.
A platinum light shone brightly, and two feathers emitted a soft holy light, wrapping Patriarch Danny in it.
The gray beard began to fall off, the traces of time at the corners of the eyes were gently smoothed out, and even the gray hair began to turn black from the roots to the ends.
He became younger, or rather, he, Patriarch Danny, head of the church, regained his former youth.
Feeling the power emerging from his body, and the healthy, powerful body that was no longer tired, Patriarch Danny, with trembling lips, prostrated himself in front of the statue of the Holy Spirit.
"Thank you, merciful Lord..."
"Huh, we must not forget the Lord's mission. We must use these Seraph wings to fight against the dark filth that grows in the dark."
Patriarch Danny clenched the two feathers in his hands. The moment he got them, he already understood how to use these two feathers to fight against the dark creatures.
A moment later, in the secret room, the Black Clergy and the White Clergy gathered together, including the Patriarch and Metropolitan of the Black Clergy, and the Chief Priest and Archpriest of the White Clergy.
These were high-ranking members of the Orthodox Church; even the archbishops and priests were not worthy of entering this secret room.
At this moment, everyone looked at Patriarch Danny, who had returned to his youth, in astonishment. They were so shocked that they couldn't even make a sound.
"Grand...Grand Patriarch, what's wrong with you?" The Metropolitan asked in a trembling voice. He was most familiar with the Patriarch and could naturally see that the Patriarch had really returned to his youth.
After all, the two of them had once entered the church together, devoted their bodies and minds to the Lord together, and became senior church leaders together when they grew old.
How could he not be shocked when he saw the Patriarch in front of him who looked exactly the same as he did forty years ago?
"John, you are really out of control. This is the will of the Lord."
Patriarch Danny smiled slightly, and his every move revealed a calm and indifferent temperament.
"The Lord... the Lord's will?" The high priest asked in confusion. Forgive his stupidity, but he did not understand the meaning of this sentence.
"This is it..." Patriarch Danny slowed down his voice and explained the scene of seeing the Seraph just now and the Lord's mission, "This is it..."
After a while.
“The Lord actually sent down His messenger!!!”
In the secret room, everyone could no longer remain calm, especially when Patriarch Danny took out the two Seraph's feathers.
As soon as this final piece of evidence came out, everyone's emotions exploded in an instant, and they immediately praised the Lord's glory and mercy on the spot.
Patriarch Danny just smiled and looked at the people who were praying devoutly. He understood them.
Then, after everyone calmed down, Patriarch Danny continued to explain how to use the Seraph's Wings.
The Seraph's Feather requires a qualified person. Only after reacting to the feather and getting a response from the Seraph's Feather can one use the power of an angel.
The search for qualified people does not depend on the piety of their faith. If we go by the degree of their faith, who else could be more suitable than them?
But they couldn't really find a qualified person who had no faith at all, so they started screening from the religious level, from top to bottom.
The higher-ranking teachers would first come into contact with the Seraph's Wing to see if they could react to it, and then use this to lower the rank until they find a qualified person.
After listening to Patriarch Danny's plan, everyone thought about it and felt that there should be no problem. After all, this was the fastest and most convenient solution.
But at the same time, a new problem emerged.
Do they need to tell the world that the messenger of the Lord has appeared and they are selecting warriors of the Holy Light to fight against the darkness?
After a unanimous decision, everyone decided to keep it secret for the time being. After all, the Lord's messenger had said that dark creatures appeared here.
Where is this place? Of course, it is the country where their church is located, Romania.
In Romania, dark creatures are breeding.
And they are the Lord's warriors, destroying the abominable demons for the world.
In order not to alert the enemy, they need to proceed in secret until they eliminate the dark creatures in one fell swoop and kill the demon that tempts people to fall.
And now, let's start by selecting those who are qualified to bear the Seraph's Wing.
Chapter 228 Talks
Bucharest.
In the only city that can be called wealthy, everyone is dressed so brightly and beautifully. They are lucky because they live here, and they are unfortunate because they live here.
If you don't have money, Bucharest is just a high-pressure city with endless pressure and breathless life. However, as long as you have money, Bucharest is a capital of luxury and debauchery, a world of partying every night.
Those who yearn for this city, when they come here, they realize how naive they are and how despairing this place is.
The upper class will always be the upper class, and will always be vastly different from the lower class.
Fortunately, Klaus skipped this desperate step and became a member of the upper class in one step.
Until now, Klaus still feels like he is dreaming. Just a few months ago, he was still that small gang boss, a small-time gangster who could be said to be insignificant.
But now, he has become the sole controller of the underground forces in this country, a person second only to the emperor and above everyone else.
The only one was a little lady who disdained power and even completely ignored them.
It has been a long time since he last saw the little lady. If it weren't for the vague connection between him and the little lady, he might have forgotten about her.
"Forget it, forget it. I'd better not think about it. My life now is enough to satisfy me."
