Before leaving, arkas looked back for the last time and said, "half elf, the power you have does not belong to you. Without that holy thing, you are still just an ordinary mortal today. You are not qualified to stand in front of me and say the word 'sanction' to me. ↗ Vertex novel, www.23wx.com com”
"Likewise! Your strength comes from ishutar," Serena retorted.
"That's right!" For this, arkas did not deny, but the angel's eyes have more confidence and pride than Serena: "but even without the gift of my Lord, my power is still above all mortals in the world, and once you lose the holy thing, you are only one of mortals."
Serena's eyes flashed a cold light and met arkes fearlessly: "it is because I am a mortal that I can better understand the needs of mortals, and you! Angel ~ you stand too high, just like the goddess you serve, and are determined to achieve your own ideas. When did ishutar listen to the request of her believers?"
Edward noticed a detail. When it came to the title of "angel", Serena's words were full of strange ridicule.
To Serena's question, arkas smiled calmly: "Ha ha ~ secular mortals are foolish and blind. They set fire to the forest for a little harvest and lose their reputation for a little money. Similarly, they don't know how to look at the long-term future. They just pursue short-term interests. Therefore, secular mortals will support the strong and those who know how to govern to become kings. But this is not enough. Mortals still need one more day A more powerful existence to guide them also needs a 'God' who will not be corrupted by power to draw up a blueprint for their whole future. Although it will bring some pain in the process, after all, only our Lord ishutar can lead the world to the right track. "
"The mortals in your mouth probably include other races besides human beings?" Serena asked, disgusted but still cold.
"Isn't time proven?" The wings behind arkas opened fiercely, with holy streamer: "Humans! This weak and short-lived race, but they have the ability to reach the peak of all things in the world. My Lord has seen this ability of humans long ago. Whether elves or dwarves, other races will eventually be eliminated by humans in the process of development. It is only a matter of time, and what my Lord does is to promote and shorten this process Just. "
With the last word, arkas spread his wings and rushed into the sky with the other two female angels like a sharp arrow, just like a shining meteor.
At the end of the sky came the voice of yarkeith. When she saw the other party leave, Serena frowned slightly, but shook her head slightly. The priestess came to Edward and others and touched the protective shield of the three people: "how's it going? Are you hurt?"
When she noticed that Edward had lost his right hand, Serena asked with concern. At the same time, the priestess noticed some large and small wounds on Edward. Obviously, the child must have gone through a fierce battle to save TIA.
Edward scratched his head and finally said with a sigh of relief, "it's OK. His right hand is just a mechanical armor, but it's broken. If you want to repair it, there may be some trouble."
Serena nodded and gently waved her hand. The clean water element moistened the wounds on Edward and TIA back and forth. Under the action of magic, the wounds quickly stopped bleeding and began to heal. Soon the skin from their wounds became as smooth as a newborn baby. When receiving divine treatment, Edward probably explained the whole story to Serena.
There is no doubt that Tiya was found missing, kidnapped by heretics, left the city to search for the altar of heretics, fought with heretics and human lions, and then dug a tunnel to reach the underground devil altar, which was suppressed by the devil in the abyss. However, he destroyed the devil's altar by injecting underground water, and then rescued Tiya. The night after he escaped, he was found by heretics, Until the crisis, three angels came down from the sky and destroyed all the evil believers.
"That's about it." Edward sat on the stone and waved his hand, that's all.
Serena thought for a moment. It should be true that the two children destroyed the devil's altar. In the temple, it was because the altar was destroyed that the cultists had nowhere to hide in the eyes of the snow goddess, and it was because of the goddess's prophecy that they had time to use the sacred objects to distort the space to get here.
"Do you know what the devil in the altar is like?"
Edward was stunned. Recalling that the devil appeared completely like a black shadow like smoke, Xiaodou had to shake his head, but recalling that he saw the emblem on the gate before entering the altar, Edward said it in detail.
"The emblem of the six fingers? It should be" Lord Wu Yan. "Serena nodded:" forget it. Don't say it until you go back. "
The cloak behind Serena sparkled a streamer, which wrapped the people and disappeared in place.

After a few hours
In the logging yard more than ten kilometers away from the king's capital, thousands of workers, along with several times of guards, dozens of mages and priests of the holy capital. Led by Serena, the chief priest of the goddess of ice and snow, the demon altar built underground was excavated. In the face of the demon altar blasphemous to the gods, although the altar has been washed away by the flood and lost its function, in order to prevent evil believers from trying to repair the altar, the main priest has divinely turned the whole demon altar into ruins.
According to the information of the owner of the logging farm, the Saxony royal guard, together with the security team, the urban defense team and the intelligence department, launched an unprecedented large-scale strike against the heretics. With important information, the guard quickly arrested hundreds of evil believers lurking in the king's capital and nearly 1000 suspects suspected of having dealings with evil believers. Moreover, the intelligence department also tracked down a plan for the outward transfer of evil believers, carried out a large-scale encirclement and suppression together with adjacent territories, and wiped out hundreds of evil believers at one stroke. Not only the king took action, but the Lords of all territories of the whole Saxony Kingdom also received the royal order and began to search for possible cults in their respective territories.
So far, the Saxony Kingdom has captured more than 400 evil believers and destroyed several evil believers' dens, which can be said to be a major victory against evil believers who worship demons in the whole eastern continent recently.
One day later, Miriya finally got back from the temple Edward and Alphonse who had been investigated for "details". In the temple, Edward and TIA were both subjected to the purification ceremony personally carried out by the chief priest Serena. Of course, this purification was really to ensure that no residual power of the devil would remain on them, but the magic incense that TIA smelled before was not found, Under Edward's reminder, Serena checked several more times. Finally, by asking the main priest, she calculated that the incense might have been purified from the holy inflammation of the angel.
As heroes who destroyed the devil's main altar, Edward and Al were treated with unprecedented courtesy during this time in the temple. If their identities were not too sensitive, the temple wanted to take this opportunity to hold a grand ceremony for them, and had commended them for what they had done.
Only under the urging of Miriya and Alfonsi's body could not be repaired, Edward had to leave and go back to his residence first.
"Just send us here. TIA, your body is just right. Take a good rest." When he reached the gate of the temple, Edward said to TIA who saw him off.
TIA just nodded slightly. Although the girl still kept a smile on her face, after so many things, she was kidnapped by evil believers, sacrificed to demons, and finally saved by the angels of the Holy See. In particular, the questioning of yarkese's faith about TIA's faith made TIA seem very lost. Although she was enlightened by priest Elena, the girl has not fully recovered her previous openness.
"Goodbye, TIA!" Alphonse also greeted TIA at the last goodbye.
On the way back, Edward and Al kept silent, and Miriya in the carriage just watched the two children quietly. This time they ran out and did an unexpected event. When they reported back, even the boss (Yalin) was shocked. They sneaked into the devil's altar to save people and destroyed the altar. I have to say it's really incredible.
Miriya's silence made Edward feel guilty. It is reasonable that he and Al should be severely criticized for such a big thing this time: "that ~ Miss Miriya, we \
"Don't say anything."
Miriya directly interrupted Edward and said, "I have reported this matter to Lord Yalin. Now Lord Yalin has asked you to return to the Arnold mountains immediately. I have informed the Saxony royal family to arrange your trip back."
"Go back?"
"That's right! The time is tomorrow afternoon. I told arinda in advance about the situation of you two."
"Al's body may be able to recover, but I'm afraid no one can repair my mechanical armor."
Edward doesn't give any hope for the mechanical technology of the different world. The world is still using very primitive forging methods, and is still using blacksmith hammer to make ironware completely by hand. It's a fantasy to let a group of primitive people repair such precision instruments as mechanical armor.
Miriya looked at Edward and said, "don't worry, it has been arranged. As for the mechanical armor, Lord Yalin seems to have arranged professional personnel to repair it." (to be continued.)
