"Just who are you people?"
I scratched my head and asked with a confused expression. However, I was overjoyed on the inside. Speaking of which, teasing people like this was the only way to feel joy from the bottom of my heart. At this moment, I seemed to understand Lin Xue's way of thinking...
On the other side, Pandora and Visca were still calmly interrogating their opponents. "Who are you people?"
"Big Sis, I'm going crazy!"
Finally, the golden-haired young priest's face shows that he is seriously on the verge of collapse. I reckon that with his strength, he should be a small leader in the Magic Faction. But now, he was easily defeated by a little lass whose height doesn't even reach his stomach. Then, she interrogates him one sentence at a time. This kind of disparity doesn't feel good.
"We are magi from the Church of Absolute Evil." Seeing that even Godrend Fireweaver, who had the strength of a Saint, was defeated, Steele understood that the situation was hopeless. He accepted his fate and bit his cigarette. "People from the magic faction. Hmm, I believe that with your strength, you have the authority to know these things in the academy city."
My ass! My identity was forged by my sister!
"Oh, I see." I nodded in realization and called out to Visca and Pandora, "Let's go back and eat some dumplings."
Everyone was speechless.
The first to collapse was the golden-haired Agnas. He was already on the verge of despair after being tortured by the three of us. He grabbed his hair and said in a sorrowful tone, "That's it?"
I nodded. "Yes, it's over."
Visca's voice sounded in my head with a hint of happiness, "Big Bro is really evil …"
Not far away, Pandora, who was still controlling the red-haired opium pipe, blinked her eyes imperceptibly, and the corner of her mouth pulled into a barely discernible curve. Deep in this girl's heart, she was no less evil than Veska.
"Then why did you fight us?"
This time, it was Godrend Fireweaver who went crazy. I didn't think that Steele's spirit would last until the end.
I smiled innocently. "Because you didn't answer our questions!"
Petrified, everyone was petrified!
"I say, is it really fun to tease us like this?"
Steele's voice came from not far away. I looked over in surprise and saw that the red-haired priest was still smoking his cigarette leisurely under Pandora's control. His face was filled with depression.
He didn't expect this guy to be so sharp.
"You've been monitoring us from the very beginning. Are you really just passing by?"
"Phew." I let out a breath and waved for Pandora and Visca to come back. Then, I smiled. "I never thought that Steele's IQ would be above average."
This time, the red-haired priest could not help but be surprised. The cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground. "How do you know my name?!"
I smiled mysteriously and glanced at the other two. "Agnas, Godsplit Fireweaver. I've heard so much about you."
"Who the hell are you?!" Along with the unison voice, the three Magicians once again assumed a battle stance with incomparably serious expressions. "How do you know our names?!"
I replied, "I was eavesdropping just now."
The three of them were speechless.
Steele's expression twisted as he said to Agnas, "This is the first time in my life that I agree with what you said. The development of superpowers is indeed harmful to the human body …"
"Hey, now tell me, what are the magic-type people doing in this place?" Resisting the urge to violently beat up the red and gold priests, I asked the question I was most concerned about. "I don't think you guys would rather die than submit, right? Anyway, there are quite a number of Mind Reading metahumans in the school city. One or two of them would definitely be able to pry open your mouths. "
Contrary to my expectations, I originally thought that I would have to spend quite a bit of effort to get Steele to open his mouth. In the end, Steele spilled everything out without much hesitation. This was because this matter would quickly spread throughout the magic world. Furthermore, the ruler of the school city probably already knew about everything. Even Steele and the others sneaking into the school city seemed to be done with the tacit approval of the ruler. In this case, secrets and whatnot weren't important anymore.
An Angel arrived on the ground.
To the Church of the Cross who believed in God, the appearance of an Angel was an extremely important matter. It was equivalent to a miracle from Jehovah himself. However, no one knew why this Angel stayed in the headquarters of the Scientific Faction after arriving on the ground.
The purpose of Steele and the others coming here was to find this Angel. No matter what, the Magicians wouldn't allow their idol to reside in the enemy's base.
Of course, the Academy City wouldn't just watch as the Magicians grew in strength out of nowhere. However, for some unknown reason, Aresta allowed these three members of the British Puritan Church to enter his territory. Only the heavens knew what kind of agreement that old fox and a certain vixen had formed …
"Even the Archbishop can only confirm that the Angel's current location is within the boundaries of the school city." The old smoker, Steele, had a gloomy expression on his face. "Our British Puritan Church was the first to receive this news. On this point, the Roman Orthodox Church was a step slower. However, from the looks of it, we are all on the same starting line. Very soon, the Magicians will receive this news one after another. This place will be very lively."
A secret that was about to be revealed to the public. That was why this old smoker spoke so happily. If what he said was true, the entire Magicians would be attracted to this place. How would the reaction of the Academy City be?
The creature in the petri dish must have known about this long ago. Even though he wasn't interested in that fellow's bad taste, it must be said that as a human, his strength couldn't be underestimated. However, he didn't make any movements until now. He even tacitly allowed a few members of the Magicians to come in and look for the Angel. It was unknown whether he was prepared to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight or to reap the benefits. After all, he was a genius Magician who once summoned an "Angel" with his human body. His brain wasn't something mortals like us could comprehend.
I originally wasn't interested in such matters. After all, the main purpose of our trip here was to go on a vacation … Cough cough, to save the world. Other than the star ring fragment that could break through the world barrier and crash into Earth at any moment, I didn't care about anything else. However, Lin Xue's words suddenly surfaced in my mind.
An existence that didn't belong to this world suddenly descended, causing the direction of the entire world to undergo abnormal changes. All events were distorted and pointed towards this "foreign object." If it wasn't handled properly, it might even lead to the end of the world …
The current situation was that all the actions of the Magicians would be directed towards this Angel, who was either here to eat and drink or to travel at his own expense. In the original 'plot', this Angel didn't exist …
I had to drag these three people down with me!
With a thought, I swiftly isolated all the energy flow in the surrounding space. At the same time, I had Pandora interfere with the information exchange in this area. Even the omnipresent 'Void Loop' wasn't spared. With us at the center, the entire area with a radius of a dozen meters disappeared from the Academy City's surveillance system.
"You …" Steele immediately noticed the abnormality in the surrounding environment. However, when he took out his rune card, he realized that he couldn't use any mana.
"Alaya, stop sleeping! Come out for a moment. "
I didn't pay attention to Steele, Agnas, or the Godrend Fireweaver who was in a combat stance. Instead, I called out to the air.
Golden feathers of light appeared in front of us, accompanied by a faintly discernible hymn. A bright halo of light filled this "Pure Land" with a radius of more than ten meters. A figure gradually appeared in the halo of light, and at the same time, an astonishing suppressive Holy Light began to surge. Even the space around this figure began to distort abnormally under the random pulsation of the tremendous energy.
That lass Alaya really understood my request of 'I have to make a powerful entrance and instantly shock the opponent' very well.
As a pair of huge wings with a wingspan of three meters materialized and spread out, the Holy Light energy that was wreaking havoc in the air disappeared like a mirror, all gathering on the girl who had appeared out of thin air, causing her body to change from an energy to a physical form in the blink of an eye.
"Haa —"
Alaya yawned lazily after being dragged from the spiritual plane to the material plane by me. Then, she nimbly pounced over.
Thud. She fell to the ground …
I take back what I just said. This lass didn't understand at all. She lost control of her energy the moment she appeared purely because she was muddle-headed from sleep!
Alaya, who had prostrated himself on the ground for the umpteenth time, scrambled to his feet and flapped his long skirt. The wings on his back also fluttered, making him look like a real pigeon. All of a sudden, the holy and majestic atmosphere that had appeared with great difficulty vanished without a trace.
However, this didn't seem to change the astonishment of the magic trio. Just as Alaya was patting the dust off her body, Steele and the other two exclaimed in unison, "Angel!?"
Even though it was a question, there was a definite meaning behind it. Not only was there no difference in the image, more importantly, the process of Alaya's birth from the light was exactly the same as the legends of angels in the Church of the Cross. Not only that, the surging, powerful energy on her body and the magic power she accumulated due to her faith were things that couldn't be replicated by science. This girl with wings in front of them was definitely a true angel!
Even if her actions were a little strange …
"As expected, it's just as that vixen said," Steele muttered after recovering from his shock. "An angel has come to the school city."
"But has she been restrained by the people of science?" Agnas took out a small silver cross from his robes. His fingers were turning white from using too much force. "This angel's condition seems strange. And what's with that man …"
"Hey! The three of you over there, what are you muttering about? "I lightly knocked on the head of Alaya, who was still in a daze. My action immediately caused the three of them to be shocked." Don't look at me like that. This isn't the one you are looking for. Speaking of which, I am also looking for that fellow. The angel you are looking for might be our lost companion. "
Agnas clenched the cross in his hand, but he couldn't cast any magic due to the lack of energy around him. He sounded a little unconfident. "The people of science are looking for angels as well? Even though I don't know what despicable methods you're using, to commit such a crime with the body of a human … "
"Don't talk nonsense." I waved my hand and interrupted this guy with a firm belief. Then, I showed a rather troubled expression. "I just want to tell you that if you find that lost little one, remember to tell me. Otherwise, I will have to bear the responsibility. Seriously, it wasn't easy for me to bring the angels down for a trip, but in the end, one fell behind. You don't know how serious Jehovah has been with us these past few days!!"
As my voice fell, Pandora, who was beside me, also activated her camouflage system under my command. A pair of cute little wings instantly spread out from her back, and then immediately disappeared. The process was like a little bird unconsciously stretching its back.
Of course, Pandora didn't have the ability to use magic. But if she could use her psionic powers to imitate a flash of holy energy, any Shiring Apostles would be able to do it. Given the current situation, the three magicians didn't have the energy to pay attention to whether or not the holy energy was real.
They were busy picking up the chin from the ground.
"Who exactly are you people?" Fireweaver calmed herself down but her voice was still trembling. "Could it be that you came from the sky …" "Something like that."
I blurted out. "Isn't there a long holiday in the sky recently? I formed a 'half a month tour in the human world'. I didn't expect the angels who are usually obedient in the sky to be so troublesome. One of them got lost in just a few days. In order not to alarm the mortals, Heaven forbids us from using world-class powers. That's why I'm having a headache now."
"Long holiday …"
Agnas was thunderstruck.
"Tour …"
Steele covered his face and cried.
"Lost …"
Fireweaver smashed into the wall.
I resisted the urge to roll on the ground and maintained a serious expression. "What's with your reaction? Hmm, I've recently looked at the concept of the Kingdom of Heaven in the mortal sects. I have to say, the Kingdom of Heaven in your belief seems to be a completely different place from the real Heaven. Also, the God you believe in doesn't seem to be like Jehovah. It can only be said that it's a delusion formed by humans imposing their own wishes on the God. The real God … Anyway, it's far from the God in your legends. "
I finally spoke the truth …
To the believers of the Church of the Cross, such words could only be described as treason. Even if the Pope were to say something like this, he would probably incur the wrath of his believers. However, the mages in front of me who belonged to the Church of Necessary Evil were fundamentally different from those fanatics. It was obvious that they were more receptive to such words. Furthermore, the person who said such words seemed to be a high-ranking member of Heaven who was capable of leading a group of angels on a vacation. Thus, the effects of such words were rather subtle.
What was even more amazing was that there was an actual angel present. This angel nodded along with my words, even though it was just an obedient child who couldn't help but doze off. Thus, even though they said 'this is impossible', the few famous figures in the magic field had no choice but to silently accept the truth.
Speaking of which, would I cause their faith to collapse? 'Rational believers' like Steele and Fireweaver were easier to deal with, but the golden-haired lion … The priest seemed to have quite a strong faith.
Thinking up to this point, even though I didn't have much ill will towards them, I still tried to persuade them. "Well, don't be too disappointed. Just treat it as a fan suddenly discovering that their idol has his own flaws in life. This is inevitable. Even the Gods have human rights, don't they? Uh, what did I say wrong? "
"Fan … Human rights …" Agnas suddenly burst into tears and turned to Steele. "Hey, Opium Pipe, kill me."
The red-haired priest nodded and summoned his flaming sword. "Oh, that works too."
"Hey! You bastard! Don't really attack me! "
It seemed that my previous worries were unnecessary. Firstly, their faith didn't collapse. Secondly, they didn't cross their hands and scold me for slandering God. Is there a need to hate the Church? It really is a place to nurture interesting people …
"That's it then." Seeing that I had achieved my goal, I smiled sheepishly and retreated. "We will retreat first. Just remember to tell me when you find that person with no sense of direction …"
"Wait!" Fireweaver suddenly called out to me. She opened her mouth but didn't say anything.
At that moment, I had already led the two moving fortresses and the idiotic angel far away.
Phew, this feeling of teasing the original character is really subtle.
"Brother," Pandora suddenly broke the silence on the way home. "Why are you doing this?"
I smiled. "Of course, it's not just for fun. I want to use this method to spread the chaos with us at the center."
"Do you still remember what Lin Xue said? The existence that shouldn't exist in this world has become the source of all chaos, causing all kinds of disasters. Now, I am guessing that the source of chaos should be that unregistered angel.
"In a situation where we don't know where the other party is hiding or what the other party looks like, it is extremely difficult to eliminate the chaos. Since we can't prevent all of this from happening, we might as well let the chaos erupt with us at the center. This way, we can at least change the pessimistic future. With Lin Xue around, all of our actions can be said to be going according to plan.
"Furthermore, I am also curious about how an 'angel' who can cause chaos in the entire world will react after discovering us, 'outsiders' who are even more unexpected than him."
"So that's how it is." I wasn't sure if Visca understood what I was saying, but he nodded his head with a proud expression. "Brother is so smart."
"And this isn't the main reason." I wagged my finger with a mysterious expression. "The main reason is still —"
"This is really fun!!!"
