Capítulo 247: 13
The Godsfall Battlefield was destroyed, and the only eight secret realms were scattered across the Magic Continent.
The Realm of Ice and Wind Blade fell on the Nois Continent in the north, the Desert Border suddenly appeared on the Weiss Continent in the west, the Oz Continent in the south was visited by the Forest of Ten Thousand Trees and Ten Thousand Miles of Volcanoes, and the Yise Continent in the east was scattered with the Jade Sea and the Realm of Nothingness. Even the Helios Continent where the central Holy Church was located was not spared, and the casualties were the heaviest when the secret realms fell.
Because that was where the Realm of Wrath fell.
The eight secret realms were the resting places of the Gods of Ice, Fire, Water, Earth, Wood, Wind, Thunder, and the Realm of Nothingness. It was full of danger, but it also meant that the blessings left by the gods were likely to be hidden here.
Sorcerers pounced on those who came before, because even a slight kiss on the toes of the gods could benefit them for the rest of their lives. And the eight secret realms were the holy places in the hearts of the sorcerers. It was rumored that the opportunity to become a Saint Magus was hidden here.
But now, no one was surprised. They were praying to the God of Light in fear, asking for his protection.
The Godsfall Battlefield was very dangerous, but because of the existence of a special enchantment, it was a relatively independent place in the Magic Continent. No matter how powerful the magic beasts inside were, they would not endanger the creatures outside.
But now, the protective layer was gone.
And the magic beasts of the same element were ineffective against the magic beasts, so they attacked the sorcerers and ordinary people indiscriminately.
The magic beasts came out and wreaked havoc on the continent. In just a few hours, the human race, which had been living peacefully for thousands of years, suffered a devastating blow. If the Holy Church had not reacted quickly and urgently summoned the sorcerers of all continents to the place where the secret realms fell to fight, the human race would have been reduced to hell.
Thousands of years later, when I wake up, darkness will come to the world again.
Seeing this tragic scene, the believers all thought of the curse of the God of Darkness left in the Codex of Light.
They also knew that the God of Darkness had awakened, and the curse had really come to the world!
But they had not seen the God of Light yet. They could see nothing but death and darkness.
The sorcerers were no match for the magic beasts at all, and they could not hold on any longer. In a situation where even the Pope was losing ground, there was nothing they could do other than pray.
Even so, they did not give up hope, and their faith had not collapsed.
They kept singing praises of the God of Light, hoping that he would come to the human world and redeem them from the dark abyss, just as he had done thousands of years ago.
And the God of Light did not disappoint them!
Yes, after the Godsfall Continent fell apart, and the Arcana Realm fell to the major continents, causing heavy casualties, another piece of news that rekindled hope for the human race spread throughout the magic continent.
Someone had obtained the Blessed Ring of the God of Light.
The God of Light had sent the Divine Son Emissary to save all living beings from the calamity.
And this Oracle was undoubtedly Gou Liang.
At that time, the Pope had already given up on resisting. All he could do was to issue orders for the people to flee to the nearest Church of Light as soon as possible. In a situation where they were at their wit's end, they could only save their men and plan for the long term. With the Holy Statue of Light around, the Magical Beasts would not be able to get close to the Church, and that was enough to protect their lives.
The Pope and the elders of the Central Church, as well as their knights, were the last group of people to walk. The thunder in front of them was roaring violently, and blue-purple lightning kept striking down, taking away the plants and creatures, leaving behind a mess of ruins.
"Your Excellency the Pope, go quickly!"
The knights stood in front of the Pope, roaring at the top of their lungs. Looking at the approaching thunder beast, it would be too late if they did not leave now.
"Escort the elders away first."
The Pope was not only the master of these people, but also the one with the strongest magic power among them. There was no reason for him to leave before them.
"But …"
"Stop talking, do as I say!"
The Pope's face was solemn, and the elders and knights had to obey. A female elder who was also of the light magic attribute looked back at the Pope and said devoutly and humbly, "May the God of Light be with you."
She threw her staff in the direction of the thunder beast, and the sudden light made the thunder beast's attack stop for a moment. Everyone took the opportunity to escape, and the Pope, holding the staff, brought up the rear alone.
After the scorching light elements dissipated, the thunder beast's attack became more ferocious.
The Pope had expected such a situation, but he still insisted on chanting the magic incantation, and with the support of the staff, he kept releasing light magic.
However, he was already an arrow at the end of its flight.
Facing a thunder beast that was comparable to a sacred magus, the Pope, who was only a grand magus, was not a match for one, let alone now that he was facing a group of thunder beasts.
The commander of the knights looked back at the thunder beast's roar, only to see several thunder beasts fiercely pouncing on the retreating Pope. Their speed was many times faster than the Pope's. In the time it took him to turn his head, the first thunder beast bit through the Holy Shield of Light that the Pope had set up behind him, and the fierce blue-purple lightning on its body was about to touch the Pope —
"Your Excellency the Pope, be careful!"
The commander of the knights roared at the top of his lungs, and without a care, he turned the flying magic dragon under him and pounced on the Pope.
The Pope turned back at the sound, and the thunder beast's claws were already in front of him. He did not even have time to fight back, and the beast's claws were already reaching for his heart!
At this critical moment, the Pope only felt that his life was over, and instinctively closed his eyes, silently praying for his most beloved God of Light.
As if this prayer was heard by the God of Light, he only heard a loud bang, and he actually avoided the misfortune of having his heart dug out by the thunder beast. When he opened his eyes, he only saw the dazzling Holy Shield of Light in front of him, and the thunder beast that crashed into the magic shield actually fell to the ground with a scream.
Then, the commander of the knights arrived, carried the exhausted Pope on the flying dragon, and was about to leave.
"Wait!" The Pope opened his eyes wide in shock, and cried out involuntarily, "Stop, wait a moment!"
"It's too dangerous here, Your Holiness, you …"
The commander of the knights who turned back was also stunned by what he saw, and could not speak.
They saw that the Holy Shield of Light that had just saved the Pope's life was enlarged, and enlarged again, and became a transparent film that was no longer so dazzling, and gradually became transparent, like air, and disappeared in front of their eyes.
However, wave after wave of thunder beasts crashed into the Holy Shield of Light, and fell to the ground one by one.
They did not even try to break through the Holy Shield of Light that "disappeared", but instead fled in the opposite direction as if they had seen a terrifying natural enemy.
"This …"
The commander of the knights who did not know what was going on was dumbfounded.
"Silence."
As a light magician, even if he could no longer see the Holy Shield of Light, he could still feel the extremely rich light elements that made him hot all over. They were constantly closing in on the thunder beasts, driving them away from the land of the human race!
The Pope jumped off the flying dragon, landed on the ground, and knelt on the ground without hesitation, and said with tears in his eyes, "Great Holy Highness of Light, please allow your humble servant to kiss the back of your feet, I am willing to offer my faith, my life, my everything as a sacrifice to welcome you back to the human world …"
The commander of the knights was stunned, and finally reacted.
He jumped off the flying dragon in ecstasy, and shouted to the people who were still running behind him, "The Holy Highness of Light is here, the God of Light did not abandon us, God is here to save us!"
As he said, he knelt behind the Pope, and greeted their God with the same devotion as the Pope.
"What did he say?"
"Oh my god, look, the thunder beasts are retreating!"
"It's, it's the God of Light! It's the Holy Highness of Light!! "
The elders and knights were very surprised, and their faces were full of devotion. They all rushed back and knelt behind the Pope.
When the cries of the thunder beasts were so weak that they could not be heard, Gou Liang stepped out of the void.
No one knew of his arrival, until he landed on the ground, until the Pope, who was humbly bowing his head in praise, saw a corner of the golden robe in front of him.
"God, you … you …"
He was so excited that he did not know what to say, whether God was in front of him, whether he had any instructions for him, whether he would allow him to kiss the back of his shoes. He instinctively lowered his head even more, pressing his forehead against the ground, offering the most sincere respect.
Gou Liang looked at them silently for a while, and then said, "The thunder beasts have been suppressed in the Heavenly Punishment Secret Realm by the Holy Light Enchantment, you can all get up."
"God …"
"I am not God."
Gou Liang calmly interrupted the Pope's words. The latter shuddered and raised his head abruptly.
He was about to ask Gou Liang about his identity, but the first thing he saw was the Holy Light Ring on Gou Liang's finger. It was exactly the same as the one worn on the Holy Light Statue in the Central Temple. Only he could wipe it, and it could never be duplicated.
The Pope's body trembled even more. He stopped in his tracks and knelt down again. "Are you wearing the ring of the God of Light?"
He finally confirmed, and this sentence also made the people who did not know how to react to Gou Liang's claim that he was not God quiet down again.
The Holy Light Ring!
Without God's permission, no one was qualified to wear the Holy Light Ring …
"Yes."
Gou Liang gave a positive answer, and the people's hearts were suddenly at ease.
Even if God did not come in person, he still sent an emissary, and the emissary sealed the thunder beasts in the secret realm. Didn't this mean that they were saved?
Everyone was overjoyed, but they did not dare to rashly open their mouths to disrespect the emissary.
Only the Pope respectfully asked, "How should I address you?"
Gou Liang said, "I am Les Alex."
Everyone present was not unfamiliar with this name. On the contrary, they were very clear about who Les Alex was.
Because there were very few people with light magic talent, once a newborn was found to have such talent, they would be sent to the Holy Church to be taught. Those with outstanding talent would be selected to enter the Central Church at the age of fifteen, and could even become the Holy Son, which was the next successor of the Church.
Les should have been like this, but his father, the only two Grand Magus in the North continent, doted on him and did not want him to leave his side. The Holy Church of North did not dare to say that their educational ability was better than the Grand Magus, so they could only acquiesce in this matter.
However, when he was fifteen, Les Alex had an accident and lost his talent and intelligence. Naturally, he lost the qualification to enter the Central Church.
They were all clear about the twists and turns that followed.
Especially after Gou Liang recovered his magic talent and became a Grand Magus in one leap, the Pope personally wrote a letter to Alex, hoping that he could send Les to the Central Church.
Although for some unknown reason, this letter did not receive a reply, but later on, Gou Liang was attacked by dark magic. Not only did he lose his affinity with light magic, he even became the abandoned child of the God of Light with black hair and black eyes. He could only enter the battlefield of God's Fall to search for the God of Light's ring to recover his talent. The Pope had also heard of this matter.
It was just that he never thought that Gou Liang would actually obtain the God of Light's ring!
After a moment of astonishment and jealousy, the Pope was even more surprised.
Gou Liang received the God of Light's blessing at this time and was appointed as the emissary of God. Did this not mean that they would be saved?
"This is really great."
The Pope stood up and said, "Emissary Les, it's really great that you arrived in time …"
"This is what I should do." Gou Liang interrupted him again, frowning slightly, and then said lightly, "I still have to seal the secret realm in the four continents. Time is tight. I can't chat for a long time with Your Excellency Pope. Please forgive Les for being rude."
"You're too serious. Sealing the secret realm is the most important thing. I'll send someone to escort you —"
"No need. I can go alone."
With that, Gou Liang raised his hand, and a phoenix condensed by light elemental spirits appeared in the void.
Gou Liang stepped on its back, performed a human peer's etiquette to the Pope, and said, "I'll go first."
The Pope said in surprise, "Emissary Les, where will you go after sealing the secret realm? Can you tell me?"
He very much hoped that Gou Liang could return to the Central Church. This way, after surviving this disaster, not only would it be easier to settle the people's hearts, but the Church's control of the magic continent would also be higher.
Gou Liang did not let him down. He left a sentence, "After the matter is done, I will come back here to report to the God of Light." Then he left.
The Pope was completely relieved, then he turned around and said, "elders, quickly spread the news of the Emissary's arrival, so that the poor children can return to their homes at ease."
This matter could not be delayed. The elders agreed one after another, and soon the news spread to the Central Continent and the other four continents.
It was easy for Gou Liang to force the magic beasts to return to the secret realm and seal them with the light enchantment. It did not take much time for him to return to the Central Church.
The Church welcomed Gou Liang as the Son of God. The Pope even intended to give up his position and asked Gou Liang to rule the Holy Church and the believers.
Gou Liang did not accept, but continued to stay in the Central Church as the mortal Son of God.
Staring at his own statue, Gou Liang was speechless.
Churches were everywhere on the magic continent. Every church would have a statue of the God of Light to accept the worship of believers. However, only the statue of the Central Church was a substitute for the God of Light.
Legend has it that it was made by the God of Light himself. Everyone, including the Pope, could not look directly at his appearance. All those who offended him would have their eyes burned by the light.
And now, Gou Liang finally understood what it meant by 'seeing is believing'.
What was it made by himself? This was simply an ordinary magic stone of light. It was casually molded into a sitting figure. The details of the face were not carved at all. There was only a blank space. He suddenly thought of what Alex said. The God of Light was furious after seeing his own statue in the human world.
Presumably, this statue was left behind at that time.
And if he wanted to return to the temple, it was not enough to restore his divinity. He needed a steady stream of faith to rebuild his cultivation.
In order to achieve his goal, there was no better place than the Central Church, and no more suitable identity than the Emissary and the Son of God.
When Alex recovered from his injury and learned about Gou Liang's whereabouts from the dark elemental sprite, he also showed an expression of knowing that it was so.
The Central Church.
Then, it had been a long time.
Alex smiled ambiguously and stepped out of the wilderness surrounded by dark magic elements.
