Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 234: First meeting with Chitian Laodeng

"It actually took ten years. That's too long!"

After Noah had an in-depth communication with the angel and calculated the time period for his child's pregnancy, he was shocked.

"Ten years? Not long!"

Compared to Jin Long's slightly intense reaction, Ophelia seemed much calmer, because in her concept of time, ten years was nothing.

Although this time is a bit outrageous for the incubation period of life, it seems very reasonable when combined with the identities of its parents.

After the initial shock, Noah accepted this fact, but this kind of waiting did make him feel very difficult.

In order to kill time, Noah chose to join the angels' war to save the world and fight side by side with the phoenix he first met.

However, this war, which is so long that there is no end in sight, is more about gathering the last remaining races in this world than saving the world.

Even Noah, who was inclined towards angels, had to admit one thing after experiencing several wars: this was a world destined to fall.

The only thing they can do is to save as many native creatures as possible. The floating city, which the angels call the Savior's Ark, has the function of accommodating different species, and the secret garden-like lands are opened up for this purpose.

However, compared to the native creatures who have already accepted the impending destruction of their world, and Noah who joined later and also faced the reality.

Ophelia, the main commander of the legion, is unwilling to accept this fact, because in her opinion, the world can still be saved, and watching it fall completely and slide into the abyss is her dereliction of duty and her failure.

This was the first time she served as the commander of this great battlefield, but she could only bring such a result, which was unacceptable to her. But unfortunately, such a trend could not be changed by the will of a mere six-winged angel.

Rumbling--

The two-headed, baboon-like Lord of the Abyss, with a dark sky above his head and broken earth under his feet, the floating dust can only linger around his waist.

This terrifyingly exaggerated Abyss Lord stared at the only flickering light in this broken world. His endless malice completely enveloped the floating city and even turned into a physical monster, constantly attacking the defense of the floating city.

"The world is going to end!"

Noah also stayed obediently in the Angel's Savior Ark. He looked at the incarnation of the Abyss Lord outside the city, who was staring at him covetously. He couldn't help but sigh when he saw the thunder falling from the sky, striking the lord's head one after another, but failing to break the outer layer of blood-colored aura.

The incarnation of the Lord of the Abyss wants to enter the material world, and the price it pays is even greater than that of the gods. The only thing that makes them stronger than the gods is that the power they consume in invading the material world is replenished by the will of the abyss.

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the incarnation of the lord of the abyss or hell to survive for a long time in the material world. Even in order to maintain its existence, it consumes enormous power every moment.

But now, the incarnation of the lord outside can move freely, and the suppression of the material world on it is as if it does not exist. I am afraid that it will not be long before its real body can descend.

"The Sacred Heart Forge is functioning well!"

"Activate the Wrath of the Word Bearers!"

"Open the Eternal Barrier!"

The Savior's Ark, with all its defense systems activated, made the incarnation of the Lord of the Abyss stare at it for a long time. But in the end, the Lord of the Abyss could not suppress the influence of the will of the Abyss on it and launched an attack on the city that it could not break through.

boom! boom!
Each attack of the Abyss Lord was like a falling meteorite, but each of its attacks could only cause ripples on the Ark's outer defenses. Moreover, as it continued to attack, the golden statues in the city began to gradually revive.

wow~
A golden angel holding a sword in both hands was resurrected. This angel, who was less than 20 meters tall, looked outside the city with his golden eyes at the beginning of his revival. Like a mad and brainless beast, he kept attacking the Abyss Lord who was defending the floating city.

The golden angel disappeared on the spot with swords in both hands. When he appeared again, he had come to the side of the two-headed baboon lord. Although the lord's mind was frantic at the moment and his brain was slow, the fighting instinct contained in his body was triggered, and the poisonous snake tail behind him bit towards the angel.

Zheng——

The sword in the golden angel's hand shone brightly, and the dark clouds that had shrouded the broken earth for who knows how many years were broken by the sword, and the tail of the poisonous snake behind the lord of the abyss was cut off at the same time.

roar~
The intense pain finally made the Abyss Lord regain some of his thoughts. He looked at the golden angel in front of him, roared angrily, and swung out his palms, ready to slap the angel, who was like an ant to him, into a piece of paper.

puff~

A golden spear pierced through his chest, and dirty blood poured out like a waterfall. It turned out that another golden angel was resurrected and joined the siege of the incarnation of the Lord of the Abyss.

"What is this? An idol?"

Looking at the lord outside who was so ferocious and violent just now, as if he wanted to drag this world into the abyss, and now became so embarrassed and dodged left and right under the siege of three golden angels, Noah could not help but be speechless.

Although he had studied the golden angel statues when he first came in, he saw too many incomprehensible structures in them. Now he finally understood why he could not understand them, because they belonged to another field.

faith!

Those golden angels who had completely revived and were joining forces to suppress the incarnation of the Abyss Lord like living creatures, were now consuming only the power of faith, which was the power that the gods could mobilize.

It is because the nature of these powers is so noble that even the Lord of the Abyss is defeated.

Of course, these angels are not gods, but they are not much different, because they now possess some of the attributes of gods. Even if it is only temporary, it is more than enough to suppress an incarnation of the Lord of the Abyss.

"This is the power of faith generated by the secular worship of angels. Angels are not gods, and they do not have the divine nature to transform faith into divine power. However, it does not mean that there is no way to utilize it... Wonderful, really wonderful!"

Noah, who already had a master-level understanding of golems, felt suddenly enlightened at this moment.

Because those golden angel statues, to some extent, possess a special structure similar to that of divinity and can utilize the power of faith. Moreover, they themselves are not living creatures and do not need to bear the cost of receiving faith.

Discovering and realizing this was of great help to Noah, because Noah had long discovered that he also possessed the power of faith.

It's just that Noah has never thought of becoming a god, so the power of faith is not even worth mentioning to him and is completely useless. But now, he has seen how angels use the power of faith, which has given him deep inspiration.

"I have to take back what I said before. Your angel lover might really be able to save the world."

Selina appeared silently beside the increasingly excited Jin Long.

"It's incredible that the heavens have developed this kind of technology. Do the gods have no objections?"

"I've already said that she's not my lover, she's my partner."

Noah corrected himself once again. His eyes followed closely the golden angels that were reviving one by one. There were a total of 121 golden angel statues like this in the entire Ark.

Although each angel statue needs to be refilled with the power of faith after a fierce battle, three or five angel statues can suppress an incarnation of a lord. Such a number of statues can be recycled.

The Savior's Ark is worthy of its name. It really has the power to save the world. The only problem is how to use it, because these angel statues obviously do not have the ability to fight over long distances, and their combat radius can only be around the Ark.

More defense than offense

"It doesn't make much difference. Now you should think about how to get your lover to agree that we can study these golden angels." Selena saw the value of the golden angel statues.

"Don't cause trouble for her. This is her first time to control a war weapon of this size."

"What are you afraid of? Have you forgotten who her father is? Such a small matter is nothing to her."

"I'll try, and you don't have to get involved."

Noah hesitated only for a moment; he also found it difficult to resist the temptation of the holy image.

"That's okay too."

Selena looked outside the city. The incarnation of the Lord of the Abyss, whom even she had to retreat from, had been dismembered and split apart under the siege of seven golden angels.

At the moment of being shattered, the lord finally regained all consciousness, but it was obvious that it was too late to save the situation. Therefore, it did not struggle or resist, and let the incarnation shatter and dissipate.

"Tsk, these lords in the abyss are really pitiful."

"really."

Although the lord's incarnation was terrifyingly powerful, his death was too tragic.

Noah observed several times in a row that the lord did not want to get entangled with these golden angels and wanted to retreat, but each time he was interfered with by a strong will.

Therefore, the Lord of the Abyss had to order his incarnation to fight the Savior's Ark, which not only consumed his own strength, but also did not achieve any results.

This is the will of the abyss, which is constantly interfering with the chaotic will of every demon in the abyss. Without its influence, the scale of the abyss would have expanded more than ten times.

"You want to study icons?"

After the crisis was resolved, Noah approached Ophelia, and the angel was obviously surprised to hear his request.

"is it not OK?"

"This technology is restricted from being passed on to outsiders. My father has also signed a contract, and I cannot violate it."

Ophelia's expression turned serious and she warned Noah.

"Given our relationship, this can't be considered a side story, right?"

"Don't try to exploit loopholes in the contract, as this will have very serious consequences."

"All right!"

Noah could actually guess that the gods could not be indifferent to matters related to faith. Even if they allowed the angels to use the power of faith in such a pleasing way, it did not mean that they could tolerate the disorderly spread of this technology.

If this is left unchecked, it means that a group of ordinary people worshipping a stone can give the stone real power, which in turn provides them with protection.

"Noah, there's a little problem at home, are you going back?"

After knowing that Noah had not succeeded, Selena did not plan to stay in the Ark any longer. She had already seen all the places she should see, and she could not enter the places she could not see.

"whats the matter?"

Noah also wanted to leave. After witnessing the power of the golden statue, he knew that his angel partner was safe and no demon lord could hurt her, even if his true form descended.

It has to be said that his angelic father-in-law really favors his daughter very much and actually gave such a powerful weapon of war to his daughter.

"Uornos is badly injured."

"what?"

Noah was also shocked when he heard the news, and he couldn't sit still either. Although he had cut ties with his nephew, their interests were still the same.

"what happened?"

"It's about the undead in the north."

"What does the undead in the north have to do with him? What is he doing?"

Noah couldn't understand that Middle-earth was the main attack direction of the Undead Scourge, and the Kingdom of Atlas just needed to watch the show and didn't need to get involved.

"Ophelia, I need to go back."

Given the situation, Noah had to go back and couldn't stay here to continue accompanying her.

"okay."

Ophelia did not try to persuade him to stay. In fact, her schedule was very tight and she had very little time to spend privately with Noah.

Chirp~

Amid the clear, melodious, and reluctant chirping of the phoenix, Noah and his adoptive mother set out on their journey home.

"Aunt, why do I feel something is wrong?"

Shuttled through the turbulence of the void, although the chaotic and empty scenery around him was the same as when he came, Noah keenly sensed that something was wrong.

"Me a little too."

Just as Selena agreed with Noah, a ray of light flashed, and beams of light merged like sharp arrows and shot from the front, instantly forming a corridor of light that enveloped Noah and separated him from Selena.

"?"

Noah's heartbeat began to speed up as he felt the divine power filling every corner. But when he saw the dim and tall figure gradually emerging in front of him, the Golden Dragon fell completely silent.

"..."

Noah didn't speak, and the being that intercepted him didn't speak either. The two looked at each other in silence. Finally, Noah couldn't bear the pressure of silence anymore, so he took the initiative to greet them.
"Sir Solophis."

Just like when they first met, this Seraph God ignored Noah and just stared at him quietly. Even though Noah did not feel any mental or physical pressure, the psychological burden was too heavy.

Because he had no idea what this Seraphim was up to. Was he displeased with him? Was he going to knock him out? This was too mean. A Seraphim wouldn't do this.
