Chapter 168 - C168 Base 001

"Cunning Demon!" Allen exclaimed.

He had noticed that Apophis had already begun absorbing the demonic energy in the region at a very fast pace.

This can't go on. If the Demon absorbed the demonic energy in the surrounding, Allen did not know how powerful will he become. However, Allen already got what he wanted. He too will become a lot more powerful when he devoured the Eternal Fire.

"Rise and Destroy!" Allen said as he waved his hand.

In the next second, the ground cracked as rotting bodies appeared from underneath the ground. They are none other than the zombies.

"Kill them all."

Allen commanded them, as he strengthened the order of life on them. If he did not do so, they would not be able to go near the Demon and would immediately be swept away by its chaos.

In the next second, Allen no longer bothered with the Demon. He knew that the Demon would not be of any match to him when he devoured the Eternal Fire.

…

"My Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death! I beg of you, spare us of the life we have. We don't have food. We are yet to eat for many meals now."

Amidst the human bases, the three Angels along with Orginech are having a headache as they kept hearing such complaints.

Meanwhile, Allen, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, temporarily disregarded them as he is busy devouring the Eternal Fire.

"My Lord, how can you be biased to the three bases. We are still your followers. Have you forgotten us?"

In these past days, when Surtur's aura swept the planet, the military announced that humans are under a state of calamity. Hence, the prices of the goods had gone up.

However, everything is fine within Allen's three Bases.

"The military had taken their stance. Silent but precise," Orginech said as he was seated on a long table along with the Angels.

"Indeed, they had taken advantage of the Demon's aura to screw up." Cold Wind agreed.

"I don't think this is not a bad thing. We don't want the unfaithful ones to receive the grace of our Lord, right?" Plague said which garnered the attention of the others.

After that, they looked at Cyrus.

They are not oblivious that he came from the era where their Lord came from.

"Our Lord is the Divine Spirit of Life and Death…"

After that, the three Angels along with Orginech had decided to temporarily let things be. However, they had their plans.

…

Meanwhile, at Base 1, where Atlas' pillar rose from the ground, there is destruction everywhere. However, despite that Allen's followers in this area are more faithful than the ones in his three bases. of course, disregarding the class holders.

"Helen, we've gathered the injured," Brett said.

As he was followed by a small crowd of followers.

"I see."

In the next second, Helen closed his eyes and concentrated for a while.

"Healing!"

He cast a healing skill and healed the injured people.

"Thank you!"

In turn, they expressed their gratitude. However. Helen did not accept the credit.

"It's all because of our Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death," he replied with a pleasant smile.

"The Lord is the most graceful."

After saying that, those that he had healed left to help with the chores.

After Atlas' pillar broke out in the Base, the military still has not restored Base 001 making it rather chaotic.

However, thankfully, there are ones that took initiative to organize the people in the Base. They were the ones saved by the grace of the Divine Spirit of Life and Death's subordinate, Orginech, back at the time.

After that incident, those that did not believe in the Divine Spirit of Life and Death had started believing. The ones, that they were grateful is the Divine Spirit of War and Glory. However, since he was the subordinate of the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, they also praised him.

"We can't go on like this, Helen," Brett said with a worried expression.

Brett and Helen are best friends.

"I know, I already prayed and am waiting for our Lord's answer."

"Do you think he can hear us?"

Hearing what Brett said, Helen went silent for a while.

"I am not sure. However, I will keep on praying."

As she said that, an extreme determination could be seen in her eye. It was written within that she would not stop until their Lord notices her prayer.

"The Lord saved us once, I know he will save us again."

Sigh!

In the end, Brett could only sigh. He knew that he could not change her decision.

…

"Lady Helen, should we pray together."

On the next day, Helen had her heart thumping as an old lady come to her. Along with her is a group of a hundred or so old and young people. They are none other than the people that she had healed. At the same time, they were also Allen's followers.

They were all looking at her with expectation.

"We'll pray to the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, a while later."

Hearing her reply, the crowd is confused. However, Helen did not stop there.

"We'll first have to sing or utter praises to our Lord, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death. We can't be too dull in praising our Lord, can we?"

Thus, they uttered praises. However, it took them a rather long time to create a system on how to praise their Lord.

…

A week later, they had noticed that little by little, their health is becoming better as if something unknown is nourishing them.

At that time, they knew that their Lord had answered their prayer for good health.

However, one fine day after the prayer, Brett spoke with Helen with a solemn expression.

"The military had noticed us and would like to speak to you."

It might be simple speaking with the military; however, they both have a solemn expression. There is more than what meets the eye.

"Had they finally decided to interfere on how we, the followers of the Divine Spirit of Life and Death, praise our Lord?"
