Chapter 358: The Decision of the Church
"Damn it, it’s finally over." Messiah looked so weak, as if she had just been pulled out of the water. It was hard to imagine what a god had just gone through.
"You only lent him the power of a peak eighth-tier god, but he forcibly took the power of a ninth-tier peak from you, and he was still taking it." The Aurora Goddess had a hint of a smile in her eyes, "You tried to steal the chicken but lost the rice instead."
"That doesn’t matter, as long as we can disarm this ticking time bomb." Messiah wiped her sweat and sat up, "This little brat is too strange. My Great Prophecy has reached its limit, yet it seems he has advanced several years into the future. This future… is quite impressive."
"Hmm." The Aurora Goddess had to admit that Karoso was a very powerful mortal.
It’s hard to imagine how he grew to that level.
"I can’t go on like this. I need to rest in your church to regain my lost power."
"No way."
"Then I’ll just take the power of the Lord of Eternity; after all, his followers are causing trouble everywhere."
"It’s up to you."
……
Church of the Dawn Goddess, headquarters.
The Pope returned to the conference center, where the people were still arguing. Some had already sent whatever they could to join the battle, and some countries were contributing money and effort.
"It’s time," the Pope said firmly. "We haven’t even established a plan, yet we are using Light Momentum."
At that moment, a message from Purlimont came through.
"This is bad!"
Purlimont’s face turned pale.
"What happened? Can’t we stop it?" The Pope felt his blood pressure rising. If those idiots had passed the decision to use Light Momentum earlier, they would have already defeated Modred!
Now, the Pope does not dare to think about how much has been lost.
If those high-ranking church officials were to fall, it would surely create even bigger trouble.
Under the watchful eyes of the Church of the Dawn Goddess, Ricardo has done so much, and now a demi-god level rebel knight has emerged, challenging all the church leaders. The Church of the Dawn Goddess may become the target of everyone’s blame!
At that time, they might lay all the blame on the church.
In fact, they might say that this was all part of the Church of the Dawn Goddess’s scheme.
With many countries and churches uniting on the continent, even the Church of the Dawn Goddess cannot escape blame!
"No, this is serious!" Purlimont swallowed hard. "Just now, just now, Archbishop Celica has broken through to level nine…"
"Hmm?" The Pope’s gaze sharpened. "Is that true?"
"Absolutely!" Purlimont nodded eagerly.
"That crazy woman Celica… is at the ninth tier?"
"Damn it, we couldn’t control her when she was at the eighth tier, and now she’s at the ninth!"
"Phew, as long as we use it well, it’s a sharp sword."
"Yes, she has broken through to the ninth tier, we should be happy about that; it means an improvement in our overall strength!"
"With Celica here, those who want to hold us accountable should think twice."
The senate was buzzing with discussions.
"And then what?" The Pope felt that although Celica’s breakthrough was crucial, the situation with the Death Knight was even more important!
"Celica, Minaret, two ninth tiers, along with a burst from the witch Merlin of End of Eternity, still couldn’t stop Modred…"
"They couldn’t hold up against that?" an elder asked in surprise.
Everyone wanted to be shocked again, but they saw the Pope slam the table and growl, "Be quiet and let him finish!"
Only then did everyone settle down.
"An even scarier thing has happened. That Karoso, Karoso Colloa, the young son of Duke Osiris from the Kingdom of Persia’s Canglang Province, he, he challenged Modred all by himself!" Purlimont trembled at the thought.
The reason the communication was interrupted just now was that the battle between the two had affected time and space. What seemed like an ordinary fight impacted everything around it, which is the essence of the war of gods; it can disrupt every rule.
"I know that kid," an elder said with a puzzled look. "Isn’t he just a sixth-tier Card Maker? At most, he’s a subordinate of the Flame War God. With his skills, he couldn’t even defeat the weakest seventh-tier."
"The Flame War God has possessed him!" Purlimont said. "He used a God Card from who knows where, with a wave of his hand, he summoned the shadow of the Flame Demon Sword Levatin and fought fiercely, completely overpowering Modred. Later, he let Modred fully recover, and they fought back and forth. In the end, two top-tier Spell Cards collided… He turned Modred into dust."
"A god was turned into dust by him!"
"Now… we don’t need to use Light Momentum."
For a moment, the scene was very quiet; you could hear a pin drop.
A spark of brilliance flashed in the pope’s eyes.
Other matters are easy to discuss, but to kill a god in human form…
The Flame War God descended, possessing a being…
"The god has returned?" said an elder with a trembling voice.
They had all enjoyed the benefits that power brought.
When the god was absent, they could all claim they were doing it for the dawn.
If the Aurora Goddess really returns…
Some people thought about their actions and felt a cold sweat.
"I’m afraid the Flame War God Church will boast about the Flame War God performing miracles…" an elder swallowed hard, "Neymar is still a god walking among us; it’s just that a judgment has not been made yet…"
"If that is really the case…"
"It was fine before, but now that the Flame War God has shown a sign, it could mean something important. If we dare to disturb a god that is awakening…"
"Is there a summon for Celica’s breakthrough?" The Pope thought of a question.
Every time an eighth-tier breaks through to ninth-tier, it causes a huge commotion, and it takes a long time to prepare.
"No, there were no signs of her or Minaret’s breakthrough." Purlimont shook his head firmly.
"I think there is something unusual about Celica’s breakthrough; it is very likely that the goddess has sent a sign." The Pope took a deep breath.
No matter if this claim is sound or not, if we act on it, we can eliminate some pests from the church.
Although there will be some pain in the short term, the church now… is no longer the church that the goddess wanted.
"The goddess has sent a sign…" Some elders felt more anxious.
Everyone present knew that if it was truly confirmed that the Flame War God descended upon the battlefield and the Aurora Goddess showed her powers to help Celica break through, the world would change.
Moreover, there would be a big shake-up within the church!
If Celica reaches level nine, it will depend on who can best use this Red Bishop.
Damn, it would have been better to use Light Momentum earlier; at most, we would just lose money!
Without Celica and the Flame War God, everything will be the same as before…
"I have made my decision." The pope stood up, "There is no need to use Light Momentum; the focus should be on investigating the details of Celica’s breakthrough and the details of Karoso’s divine descent, with greater attention on Neymar’s discernment!"
"It seems that we may need to welcome the return of the gods."
