Chapter 75
Chapter 75
Although everyone was killing people, they didn't expect Adam to do it so cleanly, leaving no one alive.
Seeing Adam casually step onto the altar and pick up the bone staff, William's mouth twitched. "You killed them all just like that? Don't you need to leave a few alive? "
Adam used psychokinesis to raise the white bone staff and let it float in front of him. This kind of thing looked very strange, so he wouldn't touch it with his body until he was sure it was harmless. After hearing William's words, he replied, "No need. It's just a low-level disciple. He won't know anything valuable."
"But …"
"Our mission is to destroy the Supreme Church, not to subdue them. So we just need to follow the energy reaction and kill our way over." As Adam spoke, he tried to use magic to stimulate the bone staff. With the addition of magic, the bone staff showed signs of collapsing. This meant that its material was ordinary and couldn't support magic.
Ophelia walked up and picked up the staff. After observing it carefully for a while, she suddenly crushed it.
Adam didn't stop her. After Ophelia did all this, he asked, "What did you find?"
"An alchemy product made with special means. The material is the body of a young girl, an ordinary young girl." Ophelia's voice was calm, but the others could hear her murderous intent. Obviously, this action made her very angry.
"A low-level energy converter. It only has one function, which is to turn flesh and blood into energy and release it." Ophelia walked to the side and stroked her greatsword. She didn't say anything else.
Adam looked at the broken staff, then said to the Devil, "So this is not a medium?"
Cold sweat dripped down the Devil's forehead. It came to the broken staff and scanned it with energy again and again. "That's not right. I clearly felt that there was an idiot trying to communicate with the Mage World. How could it not be?"
Adam did not blame the Devil, because at this time, he had a faint clue in his mind. The medium must exist, otherwise, there was no way to explain the source of the power of the first god to communicate with the otherworldly creatures. But there could only be one medium, and its function might be to give power. Perhaps the otherworldly creatures' way of obtaining the world's coordinates was through believers?
After Adam voiced his conjecture, William and the others fell into deep thought. Corestal recalled Mage Black's words and said to everyone, "Master once said that in the endless planes, all kinds of creatures obtain power in different ways. Some creatures in the world can receive the faith of their believers. The Mage's Plane calls this power the power of faith. Perhaps the Supreme God is such a creature?"
Adam nodded. This was similar to his own speculation. "The number of samples is not enough to complete the judgment. We need to observe more sacrificial scenes to gather enough information."
The four of them once more took to the skies, flying towards the west. Soon, they encountered yet another Overgod Shrine that was attacking the city.
This time, Adam and the others arrived before the sacrificial ceremony. They saw a different scene from the last time.
This time, the head priest of the Overgod Church was actually a kind-looking old man. He was wearing a white robe embroidered with golden threads. He floated in the air alone and performed 'miracles' to the panicked people in the city.
"Don't love the world, and don't love the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Supreme God's love will not include him. Everything in the world, the greed of the flesh, the arrogance and madness of human nature, does not come from God. It comes from the world. When the Supreme God descends, he will cleanse the sins of the world. Those who believe in God and love God will be forgiven. "
"God loves the world. He cannot bear to see the world suffer because of poverty, war, disease, and death. After the creation of the world, he came to this world again to deliver the gospel. The Supreme God said that those who believe in me will be free from all pain and will be washed away of all sins. Those who are devout will come to my divine kingdom to become the children of God and receive my glory."
As he spoke, the Overgod cast a spell and brought an ordinary person who had lost all four limbs into the sky. He gently stroked his body with a creepy gentleness. After muttering to himself, the healed wounds split open. The ordinary person cried out in pain, but in the next second, his limbs began to regenerate.
The people in the city began to tremble. They realized that the Overgod Shrine was not as cruel as the legends said. Instead, they showed a miracle. Some people were ready to speak.
The four people hidden in the sky were stunned. Perhaps official mages could do this on themselves, but they had never heard of anyone who could regrow limbs. Otherwise, Frank would not have been inoculated with a mechanical body.
William thought of his father. He suddenly turned to Ophelia and asked, "This, this kind of thing, is it true?"
Ophelia did not look back. Her voice was confused as she replied, "I don't know …"
The pain quickly passed. He looked at his regenerated body in disbelief. He suddenly knelt down in the air. The Overgod put his hand on his head and said loudly, "You were once a heretic. Now, your sins have not been washed away. However, the Supreme God is merciful and has forgiven your sins. He has given you a new body. Now, are you willing to sacrifice your life for the Supreme God?"
The person had completely fallen. He replied in a sobbing voice, "I am willing. I am willing to sacrifice everything for God."
The Overgod said lovingly, "Good child. If you believe in God, God will not give up on you." As soon as he finished speaking, the power that supported the ordinary person's flight disappeared. He fell directly from the sky and landed heavily on the ground. He lost all signs of life.
All the voices in the city stopped. They looked at the Overgod in fear, not knowing why he had done this.
The Overgod opened his hands as if he wanted to hug something. As he moved, the corpse on the ground was enveloped in a red light and slowly rose. A moment later, it was in front of the Overgod again.
The Overgod hugged the corpse. Then, a miracle happened. The ordinary person who had died came back to life. He knelt down in the air again and crawled at the feet of the Overgod, kissing his boots.
"You must firmly believe in God. The Supreme God loves the world and will not give up on any believers. Those who have died will be reborn."
Boom!
The people in the city went crazy. If regrowing limbs was not enough to make them crazy, then reviving the dead made them believe in the existence of God!
"I am willing to believe in God! I am willing to sacrifice everything for God! "
"God, please save my child!"
"God, please heal my body!"
They had completely fallen. There was no need to attack the city. Everyone opened the city gates spontaneously and welcomed the Overgod and believers.
In the sky, William and the others could not help but feel confused. This was very different from the bloody and barbaric way of preaching that they had imagined.
