Chapter 172: God's Redemption
The meteorite fell from the sky, bringing out a beautiful arc. It fell from the sky and spanned thousands of miles. The arc of light brought out in the sky is so beautiful that it is shocking. At this moment, it is constantly approaching Babs City and constantly magnifying in everyone's eyes.
Everyone can see the thick and strong flames burning above it, and the star body hidden inside the flame, beautiful and deadly. This power and scene are completely beyond everyone's imagination, and it is the destruction hidden in the ultimate beauty.
Everyone had just escaped from the killing of the Death Legion of Adenos. This was indeed the scene that came towards him. He immediately saw everyone who had escaped from death kneeling on the ground in despair. Many people covered their faces and cried, without the courage to struggle.
The flames burned on the street, and many people knelt on the ground in rows, looking up at the meteorites in the sky, as if they had accepted their own destiny. A large number of believers in the Church of Light kissed the sacred patterns the size of silver coins on their necks, and silently chanted prayers.
"This is God's punishment, this is our sin, and all this is God's punishment."
"God, I confess my sins to you, and forgive me and allow me to ascend to your kingdom."
Many people couldn't accept this phenomenon and were driven crazy by this cruel scene. A crazy old man with his upper body and thin, with only pork ribs left, ran like an orangutan on the street that was half destroyed after the war, with corpses on the ground, and half-burned houses. He cried and laughed wildly, standing in the front of the street, facing the city gate and the meteorite in the sky, stretching out his hands.
"Die...haha...all dead!"
"We all have to die! We all have to die!"
"This is not a punishment, this is destiny, it is destiny! It is the destiny that God has destined for us!"
The sharp screams were transmitted in the air, penetrated the sky, making people feel the despair and desolation in some words. Many people kneeling on the ground nearby burst into tears after hearing this.
In the palace, the nobles surrounded by groups had not yet come back to their senses from the joy of Adenos' demise, and they discovered this scene like a world-destruction. A large number of nobles were slung to the ground, and many people were even cursing and cursing. More people could only cry. Finally, the atmosphere became calmer in the holy hymns sung by a famous priest, repenting their past and everything, and looking back on their life.
Edward, who was covered in scars and holding the corpse of Adenos, looked blankly at the falling stars in the sky, and suddenly remembered what the Great Sage Anthony said to him when he was about to go.
"When Babs City is completely transformed into a city of the dead, in order not to collapse the situation to the point where it is uncontrollable, I will destroy the entire Babs City with my own hands."
"Is it too late?"
Edward's eyes were already lost, his head was lowered, his throat was shaking, and he swallowed his saliva could no longer stop the sour smell. He tried all his strength, instilled all his will, and gave up so much, but in the end, he ended up like this.
"In the end, I couldn't save the fate of Babs City!" Edward's tears kept flowing down both sides.
"Adnos, you're right, I can't save anyone!"
"Let's die here together!"
Edward held the corpse of Adenos wrapped in a disgrace of the broken king, straightened the crest on his head, stood in the center of the palace in Babs, and welcomed the last moment with everyone.
"Look, what is that?"
"God? Is this a warning and redemption to us?"
"My God, what the hell is going on?"
At this moment, the meteorite, which had originally locked in the center of Babs City, suddenly became remote, as if a mysterious force was guiding its trajectory. When it was about to fall into Babs City, it deviated from the orbit and landed diagonally into the mountains on the other side.
"Boom!"
The earth shook like a flip. Such a huge meteorite fell to the ground and instantly destroyed everything within dozens of miles around. The impact of the violent explosion was even further. Countless trees and mountain bags were instantly destroyed. The strong smoke and dust spread to all directions. The violent fire illuminated the entire sky, making people feel unable to open their eyes.
The violent impact even affected the city of Babs. Half of the lake was blown away by the impact and turned into a large amount of water mist. A large amount of lake water fell into Babs like rain, and many houses burning with raging flames were extinguished.
At this moment, everyone looked into the distance like a scene of destruction, and was shocked for a while and couldn't say it. Then everyone was filled with a strong sense of joy. The sudden change made people feel that everything that happened before was like a joke.
"Long live the salvation, long live the god!"
"This is God's warning and redemption, everything belongs to God!"
“Our sins are redeemed!”
Everyone let go of everything and ran unscrupulously on the streets. At this moment, there were no hierarchies and classes in the city, no slaves or nobles. Everyone rushed to the streets to shout and shout, celebrating their escape from death, and even celebrating the salvation of the gods.
Many mothers held their children's excitement and burst into tears. The elderly father hugged his tall son's shoulders and knelt and prayed with him in the direction of the fall of the meteorite. The rain wet everyone's clothes, and everyone seemed to have experienced a holy baptism.
In the sixty years of the Holy Calendar, the Church of Light records that the undead prince Adenos sold his soul to the devil, and used his brothers, sisters and father as sacrifices to summon the Legion of Death from hell. Saint Peter summoned the power of the gods at the cost of death, destroyed Adenos's army of death, and drove Adenos back to hell.
The land of Starfall has re-formed a lake. Together with the original lake under Babs, like the two moons above the earth, it is called Lake Silnano, meaning the light of stars or the light of gods, but more people are willing to call it the holy lake—
In Babs' cemetery, Edward selected a cemetery in the corner of the cemetery and was slowly digging. The original guardian of the cemetery, Old Jock, was dead, and the entire cemetery was in a vacant state at this moment.
Due to heavy casualties in Babs, most of the buildings were burned down and a large number of people died. An urgent re-establishment was underway. Perhaps it was because of the salvation of the gods, or perhaps it was because of the hope ignited under the great ups and downs that prompted them to quickly come out of sadness and despair, settle their dead relatives, and start to build a brand new Babs city that belongs to them.
What Edward did not expect was that Adenos did not kill all the royal family. His youngest sister, Elsa Monal, did not die. She was found in a corner room in the palace. In order to stabilize the situation in the entire Mara Kingdom and for the benefit of the church, the new cardinal appointed this little girl, who was just ten years old, as the queen of the Mara Kingdom.
Edward dug up the tomb and put Adenos's corpse into an irregular quadrilateral coffin. At this time, he found that Adenos had a diamond-shaped silver-white crystal that was the size of a mung bean, and Edward immediately recognized it.
"Sage Stone? Adenos actually stole the method of making this thing, and then he successfully made it alone!"
This is the highest secret of the Wizard Tower, and it is also a kind of witchcraft with extremely difficult conditions. Some mentors cannot master it and make it alone. I have to say that Yadnos is a genius.
Edward sighed and did not take it away, but put it and all of Adenos's personal belongings into the coffin and buried it in the cemetery. However, he did not notice that the Sage Stone was shining with a faint light when it was sticking to Adenos' bones, as if it was about to melt into it.
Edward knelt on the ground and erected a tombstone for Adenos, but did not write the name. He wrote down the name of the erector, Edward Clermo, in the lower right corner. He relied on the tombstone of Adenos. Until the sun set, Edward stood up and left Babs City. Since then, he has never been to this city again.
Time flies, and time passes by~
Ten years later...
In a nameless cemetery in the cemetery, the soil suddenly began to rise, shaking and arched. With the sound of a bang breaking the coffin, a white bone palm broke through the ground deep in the ground.
"Crack!"
"Dongdong!"
The tombstone collapsed, and a skeleton with a crown crawled out of the tomb. A skeleton that could move was standing in the cemetery on this dark and windy night. The cold wind blew by, with the shadows of trees, accompanied by the shrill cry of crows.
In the skeleton's eye sockets, there is a strange green firelight. The skeleton is different from the human skeleton. It has a metal-like color, and the joints are also wrapped by a layer of strange bone tissue, allowing it to move and combine freely.
At this moment, the monster looked around blankly, as if he had lost everything, and seemed to not understand everything.
“Where is this?”
