Chapter 1459: Chapter 6: "OE: The Last Holy Communion ()"

【One day, a fox was playing hide-and-seek with his friends. 】

【“Plop, plop, plop.” Everyone accidentally fell into the puddle. 】

[A goat came over and saw the animals in the puddle and asked, "How did you all fall into the puddle?"]

[The little chicken cried and said, "Brother Goat, please save us."]

[The goat shook his head: "The pit is too deep. I can't go down." He shook his head and walked away.]

[After a while, a rabbit came over, saw the animals in the puddle, and asked, "Why did you all fall into the puddle?"]

[The duckling cried and said, "Sister Rabbit, please save us! It's too cold here."]

[The rabbit tried for a long time but couldn't save it, so he could only throw all his treasured carrots in to help everyone fill their stomachs.]

[It was getting dark, and everyone in the pit was cold and anxious. Seeing some young animals shivering, everyone burst into tears.]

[“We are going to die here. We can’t go home!” They covered their faces.]

[At this time, the calm fox said——]

……

"... Kotanis, come down."

The "magician" waved his hands, and golden light fell all over his body.

The clean light lifted his fluttering red dress, embellished with blood-red roses and pure white lace. He held his hat steady, and the silk ribbon fluttered in the strong wind.

"Shh-!"

A pair of emerald green eyes suddenly opened behind him.

It was as if a towering mountain rose up. People were unable to raise their eyes. Cold sweat streamed down their foreheads. Their whole bodies felt as if they were filled with lead.

Lin Yin hugged the soundless Su Mingan tightly. She almost wanted to cry and almost wanted to ask why this happened.

The red sun hangs high in the sky, and the red bird sings.

"Crashing - crashing -"

Countless bright red birds gathered, like living flames, and gathered behind the "magician". For a moment, it was unclear whether the fluttering behind him was golden hair or flowing red-gold bird feathers. The boy seemed to merge into one scene with the endless flying birds.

His pupils turned into pure dark blue, and he could no longer see any of the clarity of the sky. They were like a whirlpool deep in the sea, with no oxygen and no sunlight.

After Su Lin came out of the dream, what he saw was this scene that seemed like a divine visitation.

Red bird, red sun, golden feathers.

Cards of hearts, spades, diamonds, and clubs swirled around the blond boy, and the paint on the right side of his face became increasingly bright, almost burning.

The slender figure was projected against the vast bright red. The young man smiled and took off his hat to salute.

——The grand red sun hangs upside down, like the curtain of a magician’s closing performance.

"Retreat!" Su Lin stuffed the indulgence into his chest pocket and grabbed Lin Yin's wrist. Now, Katanis, the Lord of the End of All Things, and Yuritilola, the Lord of the Seventh Seat of Eternity, have both descended upon Noel Akinni. They can no longer stop them.

Lin Yin hugged Su Mingan tightly, her cheeks pale.

"...Why...We watched fireworks and ate cake together on my birthday, and I taught Noel how to make dumplings and put up Spring Festival couplets together during Chinese New Year. Noel even laughed at me for being so bad at killing ducks and geese...Are all these just trivial things in Noel's eyes? Are they not as important as today?" She said with a wry smile.

How could he force Su Mingan to death like this?
Su Lin said nothing and forcibly dragged Lin Yin away.

"Shh!"

at the same time.

A golden trident of Poseidon stabbed at Noel.

Mizushima Kawashima's black hair fluttered and his sword energy pierced the sky.

Yi Song whispered as a dark tentacle sprouted from his chest.

Tianyu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again he was looking north. His eyelids drooped, and his white robe was as ethereal as an immortal. He put his index and middle finger together, and the cold mist condensed into a giant frost sword.

Anthony swept his spear, sharp as lightning, pointing straight to the sky.

Halo, magic circle, sword energy... everyone who could still move launched an attack towards the sky.

However, as Noel slowly opened his dark blue eyes.

Everything was quiet.

The breath of the higher dimension leaked out, and the concept of "destruction" emerged in people's minds. When those dark blue eyes slowly swept over - seeing the mountains, the mountains collapsed, seeing the rivers, the rivers dried up, seeing the earth, the earth disappeared.

Even the luster of the World Tree became dim, and the petals withered one by one and fell to the ground.

People involuntarily hunched their bodies, lowered their heads, bent their waists, and touched the ground with their legs. They involuntarily revealed an irresistible posture and crawled on the ground.

The sky is surging, and the world is quiet.

Everyone lowered their heads in submission and fell to the ground like straw.

No.

There is another person.

There was one person still standing there—

The hands of the clock emitted a shimmering halo, and a young man with white hair and green eyes wearing a crown slowly raised the black knife in his hand that was wrapped in scarlet blood.

He stared at the "Demon King" in the sky and said:

"...I want your head and body to be torn apart, your blood to gush out, and your body to be torn into pieces."

In an instant, Noel touched his neck and felt a trace of expanding blood. The next moment, his head flew up, and blood spurted out three meters high, spreading in all directions like a fountain.

Faith in authority, everything you wish for will come true, what a convenient power...

Lu Shu raised his knife, the tip of the knife was wrapped in scarlet blood, and it turned into a swift stream of light, pointing directly at Noel's broken head!

Even though his entire body was wrapped in demonic energy, Lu Shu was still wearing a plain white robe embroidered with silver bamboos and pine cranes, and his emerald green eyes were not dark at all.

There was no pain in Lu Shu's eyes, as if he knew something.

The next moment, Noel's head flew back, his neck cracked, the blood line healed, and his eyes opened again.

"Oh, the authority of faith really suits you. You are indeed a person who likes to have wild ideas." Noel tossed the cards slowly, "But it's not enough."

His dark blue pupils slowly looked towards Lu Shu.

Being watched, Lu Shu instantly felt a tingling pain all over his body, as if he had turned into a pool of snow, about to melt into the world. He gritted his teeth, and the shadow of the clock behind him lit up.

The light of "Faith" flickered wildly, and Lu Shu imagined the scene of a sword emitting black light and tearing Noel apart with one blow. He imagined Noel's body falling like the setting sun, blood splattering all over his body. He imagined Noel Ajinni dying in various ways, with a broken head, an exploding body, a shattered heart, and limbs cut off... He imagined the extremely bloody death of Noel repeatedly, deeply, and over and over in his mind.

He finally fantasized about Noel's "death".

The black knife was drawn and stabbed towards the sky.

Lu Shu was completely black, while Noel, on the other hand, was bathed in golden light.

One was black and the other was white, as if the night had torn the day apart. The "Lord of the Abyss" was wrapped in endless demonic energy and stabbed at the "magician" who was covered in sunlight, like a black line that passed by in an instant.

They looked into each other's eyes, without any of the affection or hesitation of the past, only indifference.

……

[At this time, the calm fox said: "Don't be afraid, let's try to pile on each other and save the tallest one."]

[The puppy asked: "Who should be on top?"]

【Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.】

[It is already dark, and we don’t know if there are any ferocious beasts outside the pit. The person who goes out first to ask for help may be the first to be rescued, but he may also be killed by the beast.]

The fox thought for a moment and said, "Let me do it. I can run fast. If I am the first one to climb out of the pit and ask for help, then everyone else can be saved."

【So, the little animals piled up on top of each other and helped the fox out of the pit. 】

[The fox looked back, then quickly spread out its four paws and ran away.]

……

"clang--!"

As soon as the white sickle came into contact with the pitch-black blade, the latter suddenly retreated.

The sickle then penetrated and stabbed into Lu Shu's chest.

The white sickle ripped away the sticky flesh on his chest, and there was a sound of broken ribs. Intense pain poured into Lu Shu's brain, blood spurted out, his vision suddenly became blurred, and his whole body was shaking with pain.

……

[February 2. Su Mingan said I was very important. Noel said he wanted to be my good friend forever.]

[Very happy.]

【I hope everyone can survive. 】

……

Blood was flowing down Lu Shu's cheeks. He stretched his hands forward as hard as he could and stared at Noel's deep dark blue eyes:

"I want you, Noel Akinni...to die without a burial place."

"Even if you can't die, I want you to endure the pain of being bitten by thousands of ants, the burning pain, hunger and cold."

"Unless you are forgiven by Su Mingan himself, your pain will never go away."

After saying this, he spat out another mouthful of black blood, as if all his strength had been drained away. His arms drooped and he fell down powerlessly.

Noel was about to chase after him, but his face suddenly turned extremely pale, and his facial features almost twisted into a ball, but he still managed to maintain an elegant expression.

Only his violently trembling fingers revealed that he was in extreme pain.

“Cough… cough cough!” My back felt as if it was crawling with gnawing insects and ants. My chest was also aching. My exposed skin was burning and painful. My stomach, which had long been unaware of hunger, was growling. At the same time, there was a chill that made my teeth tremble…

Such desperate pain.

Nuoer gritted his teeth and maintained his composure, no longer caring about the falling Lu Shu, and stretched out his hand towards Su Mingan. His most important goal was Su Mingan's "devouring" power.

At this time, Su Lin was flying with the silent Su Mingan.

Noel endured the pain and uttered a soft, pleasant voice, just like the dean's brother telling a bedtime story to a child:
"[The stars sleep upon the dark and silent waves.]"

A huge suction force rose from Noel's palm, like a deep black hole.

Pitch-black frost and snow floated around Noel.

"[White Ophelia is like a grand lily]"

——This is the fighting style of the Seventh Seat, the Eternal Lord.

By singing poems, songs, and stories, he transforms eternal memories into real attacks. Although he is a childish guy, he unexpectedly loves reading.

Su Lin's body froze, sensing the extremely terrifying suction force that dragged him towards Noel. He immediately swung his sword, and instantly the clouds and mist rolled, the mountains shook, but the suction force did not decrease at all.

The stars sang, and the sounds echoed. The huge green eyes stared at Su Ming'an in Su Lin's hands, as if they were salivating over a delicious meal.

……

[“Mom and Dad, where did the fox go after it left the pit? Did it successfully save everyone in the pit?”]

[“Noel, do you like fairy tales like this? Mom and Dad will tell you a few more, okay?”]

[“Mom and Dad, why don’t you continue telling the story of the fox? This fairy tale is not finished yet.”]

[“Noel, Mom has just seen the ending of this fairy tale. You won’t like it. Let’s change to a better fairy tale, okay?”]

……

"…Not good." Noel whispered:
White lilies blossomed in his palms.

"[A bird rustled in its nest,]"

"[A mysterious song descends from the golden stars.]"

Golden stars flickered behind Noel, transforming into golden cannon muzzles, accumulating manic heat energy.

Flames burst out of Su Lin's body. He snapped his fingers and golden thunder appeared and disappeared in the sky. He was about to fight with all his strength when he suddenly saw a cat.

A red bird holding a black cat in its mouth jumped onto Su Mingan's chest and shook its head.

"What do you mean?" Su Lin didn't understand cat language.

The black cat meowed a few times, stomped its limbs around, raised its paw, pressed it against Su Lin's chest, and pushed back.

"...I understand." Su Lin said.

The black cat owner meant... to keep Su Lin away.

Su Lin was silent for a moment, looked at Su Mingan's pale cheek again, took out the indulgence from his chest pocket, tore off the duplicate ticket along the perforated line, and stuffed it into the pocket of Su Mingan's black windbreaker.

This means that the "God" living in the clouds has forgiven your sins.

"With this indulgence, I forgive your sins. May God's mercy and grace be with you." Su Lin had a splitting headache, recalling his childhood memories, imitating those godfathers sitting in the confessional, slowly lowering his eyes, and speaking according to the indulgence:

"I forgive you all the sins you have committed. May you receive divine forgiveness and salvation. May the grace of God be with you and guide you to goodness... May you be bathed in light and walk in peace in your afterlife."

When Su Lin was a child, he had heard such words of forgiveness in the church. He had also prayed seriously to the gods of Yunshang City for some trivial matters, such as stealing a piece of barbecue, forgetting to do homework, and skipping breakfast to buy ship toys.

Things have changed, and today I am the one who comes to pardon the original god of Yunshang City.

Su Lin lowered his eyes, his voice was soft and generous. This was the voice he usually used when he issued oracles. Every devout bishop in Praia had heard such a voice and felt honored and sacred. However, this time, his voice was a little different.

Even Su Lin himself couldn't tell what the difference was. Perhaps it was because a god shouldn't forgive another god.

Immediately, he gently loosened his hand.

Since Su Mingan gave him the indulgence.

Then he has to go through the formalities.

He silently injected a trace of vitality, then let go.

The next moment, the dark swallow was sucked into the distance.

……

Noel flashed and finally grabbed Su Mingan's shoulder.

very light.

The black-haired young man's body turned into pure energy, like a piece of clean crystal, his flesh and blood were turning into light spots and scattering around, like a snowman that was about to melt.

"It's so cold." Noel touched his shoulder and his hand was frozen. Even if he was enduring the extreme cold left by Lu Shu's curse, it was not as cold as this touch. He shook his hand, put on white gloves, and then grabbed Su Mingan's shoulder:

"It's so cold...Su Mingan."

Su Mingan has no warmth left.
