Chapter 417: 235 Despairing Holy Son
Chapter 417: 235 Despairing Holy Son
Time rewinds to three days ago.
The moment the Heavenly Abyss fissured, the 72nd alternate holy son of the Church of Holy Light on the Pantheon Continent, Doppler of Holy Light, led his Holy Light Legion towards Thorn Oak City with grandeur.
When he arrived, the entire vicinity, within kilometers of Thorn Oak City, was shrouded in holy light.
Underneath the intense holy light, the majority of common people in Thorn Oak City couldn’t resist its allure and fell to their knees in entranced prayer towards the light.
“Good!”
Doppler, the alternate holy son, was quite satisfied.
“The Lord appreciates devout believers, pray fervently. As long as your belief is firm enough, you may enter the Lord’s God’s Kingdom after death to enjoy eternal life.
As for those unbelievers without faith, there is no place for you under the Lord’s holy light.
Eliminate all the unbelievers!”
Accompanied by Doppler’s words, bloody slaughter erupted in Thorn Oak City.
People who were not bewitched by the holy light into becoming believers became the targets of Doppler’s massacre.
With a single decree, the lives of thousands upon thousands in Thorn Oak City were unjustly taken.
And regarding the lives of these tens of thousands, no one in the scene responded.
In the eyes of Doppler and his Holy Light Legion, those unbelievers who do not believe in the holy light under it deserve to die.
Even more terrible are those people charmed by the holy light.
They actually believed that this was justified.
Some even cheered loudly without sadness when they saw their family members being slaughtered.
Such a scene was enough to send chills down one’s spine.
This is the Great Faith Skill of the Church of Holy Light.
It’s considered the foremost wicked skill by the non-Church of Holy Light people of the Pantheon Continent.
Of course, the people of the Church of Holy Light wouldn’t admit to this.
In their eyes, the Great Faith Skill is a divine skill, an incomparable weapon to let all the heavens and myriad realms feel the greatness of holy light.
“I descended upon this world for two reasons. One is to spread the glory of the Great Faith Skill across the whole world.
The second is to reclaim my divine attribute.
Let’s start with the first from this city, spreading the Great Faith Skill.
I want this world to bathe under the holy light.
I will crush all heretics, letting all unbelievers dwell permanently in Hell!”
Doppler gave a shout to rally, and his Holy Light Legion also erupted with deafening cheers.
Meanwhile, in this deafening cheer,
An exasperated voice rang out: “Not on my watch!”
From the outcry, a man stood up.
Doppler looked towards the direction from where the voice came, and saw a man in his thirties wearing leather armor and wielding a long spear rushing out.
He rushed out from the president’s office of Thorn Oak City, carrying an unrestrained momentum, charging towards Doppler.
Looking at the man who came with ferocious vigor, Doppler was shocked.
“Is it not true that the humans of this world are this brave?
He is a perfect quality fighter of the eighth rank, how dare he charge towards me?
Does he not know that even the most inconspicuous soldier under my command possesses the existence of a legendary template of the eighth rank?”
Doppler was puzzled, wondering where this human drew his courage from to launch such a charge.
Because of this, he purposely told his men not to act and let the man rush over.
But with every distance he rushed, he released a bit of his momentum to press down on him.
Doppler wanted to see if this human would still have the courage to charge after understanding the gap between them.
Following Doppler’s signal, waves of soldier’s power were released and pressed on this man.
The first wave of power immediately slowed the man’s steps.
The power gap between the two sides was too great. He was barely able to withstand just a wave of power, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.
Then came the second wave, the third wave, the fourth wave …
Wave after wave of power erupted, and the pressure the man had to bear kept increasing.
By the third wave, he couldn’t move anymore. When the fifth wave of power swept over him, the man was directly pressed onto the ground.
Prostrating!
“Is this your limit?
This disappoints me. With such little strength, what made you summon the courage to step forward?”
Doppler involuntarily walked in front of him, overlooking the man who was prostrating.
The man abruptly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot, his throat roaring like a howl: “Die!”
At the same time, his body was tremoring incessantly.
It was clear that although the man’s body was crushed, his will was not.
Looking at the man before him who was trying his best to roar, Doppler curled his lips: “Very good. I appreciate your will. I can give you a chance to live, as long as you believe in the holy light I will not kill you, how about it?”
“I’m a man of the Alliance, I’d rather die than be a slave to a god!
You damned invaders, you and your so-called gods behind you will get the retaliation you deserve!”
“Ignorant fool, you dare to blaspheme the gods?!
You think you know what kind of being the Lord of the Holy Light is?
The Lord is the greatest, most compassionate, and most powerful deity, the master of all things, and an eternally indestructible existence!
Forget the Lord, even in your world where the highest rank is only ninth-turn, who on earth can kill me and who dares to touch me, Doppler?”
“Hmph!”
Barely had Doppler’s arrogant words finished when a sharp, muffled sound rang out.
Simultaneously, Doppler felt a pain in his chest, froze on the spot, and couldn’t help but look down at his chest.
