697 Captive (1/2)
”Your Excellency Bishop, I don't understand!”
Seeing the bishop hospitably arranging food and lodging for the youth named Django, even treating him better than others, a trusted aide finally asked him in confusion after waiting for everyone around to leave, ”Why? Aren't they the sons of the Evil Demons and accomplices of the Purgatory?”
As an aide of the bishop, he knew that just on his side, the number of 'Sons of Purgatory' that they had secretly captured and executed were not few.
As for the sudden change in the stance of the church, he naturally had some doubts.
”First, this is because of the oracle… Furthermore, did the Sons of the Purgatory decrease from us capturing them? No, they're becoming stronger, and it's instead the Church that is gradually suffering losses!”
A wise glow was seen in the eyes of the bishop. ”Not to mention, after so many years of killing, do you see a decrease in the numbers of the Evil Demons? No, this also indicates that for the short term, we can't do anything about the Purgatory. Thus, we must change our course of action!”
”Draw over a portion of the Sons of Purgatory?” The aide seemed to slightly comprehend.
”Correct!” The bishop nodded. ”The Church has already prepared to form an Apologetic Knight Group, and the members are already chosen. It'll be those who worship Mother Earth and soldiers who have fought the Evil Demons for a long time.
”Therefore, please remember to entirely forget about everything before. We need to change our attitude toward the Sons of Purgatory.”
”As you bid!” The aide was immediately solemn.
…
These two people did not notice that after they had left, a faint glow flickered in the sky and materialized into a human figure.
She was as tall as an ordinary middle-aged woman, her eyes were amiable, and her body had a stern majesty that was inviolable.
She came before a set of doors, and the doors on both sides automatically opened.
Django crawled up from the bed and yawned before suddenly shouting in surprise, ”Ah! Who are you?”
Logically, such a loud scream should have alerted the guards outside, but at this moment, it was silent, as if the entire room had been separated from the outside world.
”Child, do not worry!” The woman smiled amicably. ”Are you scared? Uneasy because of the abnormalities in your body? Even though it came from your father?”
”Yes… that's right!”
Django clenched his fists tightly, as if he had returned to that night.
His father was a strong soldier. He was summoned to the battlefield, but he suddenly returned one night with his body drenched in blood.
”Go! Leave immediately! The further the better!”
Regardless of how long had passed, as long as he closed his eyes, the scenes from that night would vividly appear.
However, after escaping his hometown, he discovered that he was different.
Even without training, he was as strong as soldiers and unafraid of heat and cold.
If not for this ability, how would he have survived the merciless life of drifting from place to place, homeless and miserable?
This was the deepest secret in his heart. But not knowing why, his eyes became hot and he divulged everything after seeing this woman.
”Do not worry, my child!” The woman walked forward and lightly embraced Django. ”You have unparalleled talent and will definitely bear a huge destiny. I will bless you, to let your heart be filled with brightness at all times and not misguided by darkness!”
”Thank… Thank you!”
A warm feeling filled up Django's heart and tears flowed out in two streams.
…
This scene not only happened in the Church of Mother Earth.
In many other parts of the continent, the destinies of a few Sons of Purgatory were altered.
After Django fell into a deep sleep, Meira turned around and vanished into the sky.
When she reappeared, she had already reached the roof of the monastery.
”My pastor has run this place quite well!”
The God's gaze penetrated everything, and after a while, Meira nodded.
Seeing the glow of the sun in the horizon, she became a little worried.
According to the final will before Sun God Ramon fell into deep sleep, we've all been fooled by Apophis, that scheming Evil God. When he descended with the Nine Tier Purgatory, he was heavily injured and did not even have a body, only a strong will remaining!
He dispersed divinity in preparation for a huge plot. After the Sons of Purgatory slaughter each other to decide the final champion, his will will descend and resurrect in the body of that Son of Purgatory!
In order to stop everything, we need to change our actions!
The analysis of divinity has already been placed on the agenda by the Knowledge God, and the other is to divide the Sons of Purgatory through education and guidance, having them stand on the righteous side!
After experiencing the horror of the Sons of Purgatory and the Nine Tier Purgatory, all the Gods were already beginning to gradually change their actions.
Letting the Sons of Purgatory execute Apophis was a very good idea.
Furthermore, the Gods could gradually sense that the world's Son of Destiny was in the midst of being born.
The retaliation of the Monger World was about to begin!
…
At the focal point of all this, Fang Yuan had not yet detected anything.
He looked at the Goddess in front and could not help but rub his forehead, feeling a small headache. ”This freak can also become a Goddess?”
