Mystery: Higher-Dimensional Overlookers

Chapter 509 Anchor's Determination
The Grim Reaper's scythe and mysterious gunfire intersected, thousands of tombstones rose from the river, and billions of destinies were entangled in Sefirah Castle.

Two gods were fighting in the sky, and the god himself was also fighting with himself.

In the quiet church, people shrouded in darkness were praying deeply. Their prayers were more sincere than ever before, hoping that the gods could protect them from this terrible disaster.

——In most cities, such scenes are constantly happening.

Sharon's expression was calm. She slowly stood up from her kneeling position in front of the abstract sculpture of divine symbols in front of her, slowly turned around, and stood with her back to the statue.

Her eyes swept across every believer in the church from left to right. Sharon took a deep breath and walked forward.

The believers around were still praying devoutly - to their God.

Sharon pursed her lips, turned around and walked to the back of the church. The believers around her did not feel at all surprised by this situation, because such things had happened frequently before.

Although Sharon also has the responsibilities and functions of a nun here, she is actually the archbishop of the church, so it is naturally impossible for her to be by the side of the believers all the time.

The darkness gradually engulfed Sharon's figure. In the thick darkness, spiritual walls appeared around her one after another, and Sharon's expression was still as calm and silent as before.

A huge headless figure emerged from Sharon's side, and another figure slowly walked out of the darkness - a figure wrapped in bandages and thorns, it was the "Bound God" Tolzner.

In front of Him was a baby carriage, in which a small silver-white snake was coiled. Although it did not transform into a human form, Sharon could still see the serious expression on the head of the white snake.

"Teacher, His Excellency the Angel of Suffering, His Excellency the Angel of Mercury."

Sharon lowered her head and saluted respectfully to the three people in front of her. Will Auceptin, who was in the stroller, stretched his head forward and looked at Sharon in front of him with his eyes that looked like blood-red gemstones:
"I feel the flow of fate, Sharon. Does Mr. Fool have any plans?"

He had sensed a certain chaos and flow in fate, so he called the current "Angel of Suffering" and Tolzna's follower Renette Tinicole to come here.

Moreover, they could see that the darkness that was spreading in the distance had now slowly stagnated, and some even saw a trend of slowly shrinking back. Will guessed that this might be because the Night Goddess's promotion had reached the most critical moment, and had formed a certain degree of confrontation with the "Eternal Darkness".

As for the gods they are following now, Mr. Fool is likely to play a role in them.

"Mr. Fool ordered me to eliminate the heretics in the Fool's Church."

Sharon said expressionlessly, but both Tolzner and Reinette could hear some hesitation in Sharon's tone. After all, she was speaking more subconsciously than usual, and she didn't seem like a prisoner at all:
"Mr. Fool seems to be competing with a certain god for faith right now."

Will's expression suddenly became more serious, while Tolzner on the side spoke in a hoarse voice:
"Heresy, how many are there?"

"...hundreds of thousands of people." Sharon said, "Not only the heretics in the Church of Fools, but also the former Balamites who believe in Salinger and death itself are heretics."

The blood in Tolzner's pupils seemed to flow, and he continued to ask:
"time?"

What He wanted to express was the time limit that Mr. Fool had given to complete this task.

"The sooner the better."

"Okay." Tolzner said, "What about other cities?"

"I have contacted most of the bishops in the Old Church, but several of them are no longer reachable. We suspect that those who believe in the evil god have already begun offering sacrifices to the evil god they believe in."

Sharon's tone was a little hurried. Tolzner shook his head slowly:

"This is not your responsibility."

"The gods are higher than us and cannot be selected."

The evil god's bewitching often starts from the most subtle places. Except for church members above the bishop level who can be directly detected by Mr. Fool, it is difficult for ordinary people to be completely included in Mr. Fool's eyes. What's more, Mr. Fool has not sent down an oracle for some time.

It was not Sharon's responsibility emotionally or logically, but Sharon still blamed herself for the invasion of the Church of Fools.

At this moment, Reinette Tinicole spoke. Although her head had not yet returned to her neck, she was now speaking much more fluently:

"After that, more people will... fall into depravity and become... followers of the evil god."

"Go optimize... Mr. Fool and the followers of the Goddess of Death, Sharon."

After saying this, Renette Tinicole and Tolzner fell silent. They looked up at the sky under Sharon's puzzled gaze. The sky was blood red at this moment, and far away there, a god who had failed and been expelled was about to return.

Tolzner and Reinette whispered, "I want to be the Bound One."

"Otherwise, there is no way to fight against the Mother Tree of Desire."

The sky is red, and the end is near.

……

Xiou pulled the sword in his hand out of the neck of a Beyonder who was close to a demigod, and blood immediately splattered. Because the Beyonder in front of him was close to crazy, and had a higher order gift, Xiou's own divinity did not have much effect on her - Xiou was now a demigod.

Beside her, Fors' figure suddenly appeared. At this moment, the hem of the brown windbreaker Fors was already stained with a layer of fresh red. She looked a little tired and said to Xio:
"Why did so many evil god believers suddenly appear..."

They were not in Backlund at this time, but in a nearby city. In these cities, there were a large number of evil god believers who originally "believed" in the Fool and began to make crazy sacrifices close to self-destruction, forcing Fors and Xio to run around in cities. Fortunately, the cities that Fors and Amon had "cleaned up" in advance seemed relatively normal.

After all, under the influence of those mystical vacuum cleaners, most of the evil god believers were gathered together and caught in one fell swoop. Otherwise, Fors's workload would be so huge that she couldn't imagine it.

“Let’s go to the next location.” Xio looked at Miss Salty Fish beside him and said firmly, “With every delay, more ordinary people and innocent civilians will be sacrificed, and Mr. Fool will also be in danger.”

"what……"

Fors made a sharp explosion, but her movements did not slow down at all. Her fingers kept pulling the trigger of the "Recorder" pistol in her hand. Large groups of cultists fell down one after another under her cleaning, and no ordinary people were hurt - mental damage did not count.

“Mr. Fool has given us so many conveniences. Now it’s time to repay him.” Fors said to himself in a self-destructive manner:

"I just hope that after Mr. Fool wakes up, I can rest. Can you imagine? Rest. I have been on a business trip for a long time and have not relaxed at all..."

“No ordinary demigod would be like you!” Xio suddenly became a little irritable. He waved his hand in the air and accurately blew up the head of a Sequence Six cultist: “Sacrifice is prohibited here! You are breaking the law!”

……

Alger stood in the darkness. Beside him stood a tall middle-aged man with short blue-white hair and a straight line of hair and beard. Even compared to the half-giants of Silver City, the man in front of him was quite tall.

One after another, the sophisticated instruments were pointed at Alger. He was watching the staff of the Church of Fools and the Church of the Creator making arrangements. He turned his head and glanced at the man next to him, and said politely:
"Mr. Rhodes, you may begin."

Next to him was the angel that had been sent by the Creator Church to provide support. Although he was not familiar with the angel next to him, this angel was also arranged by the gods to assist in the security of their mass.

Another female angel, Tia, was the technician in charge of this mass that affected the entire continent. Alger heard that she was an angel of the "Perfect One" path, that is, a member of the Steam Church.

"It's done, Mr. Alger." After finishing the complicated debugging, "Tia" made an OK gesture to Alger in front of him. Alger nodded and confirmed the situation outside with Mr. "Rod" beside him again.

After everything was ready, Alger tidied his clothes meticulously and said to the lady in front of him:
"let's start."

For a moment, endless lightning was infused into the machine from the hands of "Rhodes". Alger looked solemn as he watched the mass, which was being broadcast to the entire continent through technology, officially begin.

Leodro, who was watching Alger's passionate speech from the audience, said quietly to the God of Steam and Machinery beside him:

"It's not that I made a wrong judgment. He is indeed from the Storm Path, but... is he really?"

As a human battery, Leodro was a little confused. He always felt that the Alger in front of him was like the White Tower, the Visionary, or the Extraordinary in the Mysterious Realm, but he was pretending to be Storm Path.

"I don't know."

The God of Steam and Machinery, who had transformed into "Tia", said: "Wasn't your last pope also a Beyonder from Storm Path?"

"Yes..." Leodro sighed softly, "But he is still very much like a storm. This is why I chose him to be my Pope, because he is so much like me and can serve as my vessel."

"If I had used a different method to make the Storm Church's attitude more moderate, would the outcome be different now?"

"what are you thinking about."

The God of Steam and Machinery sighed: "Can you defeat the gods of the three and seven paths with a single path?"

"……really."
-
"In an ancient time, he was also called He."

"Mr. Fool, the Creator, and the Goddess of Night all emerged from the Age of Ignorance. In that chaotic era, one of them fell into a long slumber, one was betrayed by the kings, and one lost his own authority."

"But Mr. Fool has finally awakened from his long slumber, the Creator has taken back his authority, and the Goddess of Night is fighting against the despair and disaster in the darkness. Don't forget that He brings hope, not curse."

“Before that chaotic era, Mr. Fool had a different name. He was the king of the entire world and the god who controlled destiny.”

"We call him, Blessing of the Mysterious Heavenly Lord."

Alger's voice was serious and gentle, as if he was just telling an ancient story, but beneath his words was a confrontation between two gods.

The honorific name of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun was created by Alger using Loen words based on the description that Mr. Fool had given him before. It roughly means the source of all good luck and the supreme god who controls heaven and earth.

If we use more normal words, it would be "Heaven's Way" and "Tao Zun".

This was also the task that Klein assigned to Alger. After all, as the current Pope of the Church of Fools, it would be a waste if he did not use the network he had previously laid out throughout the Republic of Loen to hold a nationwide mass to help him suppress the will of the Celestial Lord.

“The world is indifferent to everyone, but Mr. Fool at that time still cherished humanity as he does now. The name of his past incarnation cannot be mentioned now, only his surname can be passed down from the past.”

"He adopted the name of the kingdom that was destroyed as the name of his incarnation on earth, and the third dynasty that was destroyed was named 'Zhou'."

“In the past years, He was the God who loved people the most, and He was the one who was later called God.”

"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun, 'The Fool', and 'Zhou' were originally one. He was called 'Tianzun' in one continent and 'The Fool' in another kingdom. But the gods are divided."

“In the chaos, the old era was eventually destroyed, and Mr. Fool woke up again, bringing salvation to the earth and the sky…”

Under the mass attended by extraordinary powers, people throughout the Republic resonated with it on different levels. Under Alger's deliberate exaggeration and the church's propaganda, a large number of Fool believers, and even some ordinary people who did not believe in the Fool, had a fixed understanding of the image of Mr. Fool's incarnation, "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun".

That is, "Tianzun" is a god who loves people.

If it were only this, it would not be enough for ordinary people to form a fixed impression of "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun", but at this moment, the "Tianzun" sculpture launched by the Church of Fools and Aurora Company appeared.

From a secular point of view, making sculptures similar to evil gods is undoubtedly a blasphemy against the gods. But since Mr. Fool himself has no objection - this is also a solidification of the understanding of Tianzun - the believers have even less objection.

After all, "anchor" can also influence gods.
