Trafford’s Trading Club

On the street, those people who had woken up from their sleep were paralyzed on the ground in shock, fear... and even despair.

Wails could be heard everywhere.

Even the patrol car driven by the men from the Sheriff's Department was parked on the road at this time.

These people of [Free City] looked up at the sky with blank eyes.

The statue of the [Saint] in the square was broken into pieces, and the huge statue's head was completely shattered on the ground. It no longer shined.

But this is just the beginning.

Because soon, they will discover something even more terrifying - they will go to Freedom Square, in front of the broken [Saint] statue, and then they will discover the source of despair.

A body of a woman crucified on a bloody cross.

[City of Liberty] The corpse of the saint.

…

…

On top of the huge square, there is a bright red cross nearly ten meters high.

Above the cross, there is a woman wearing a black evening dress... The woman's palms and soles are directly nailed with nails at this moment.

There was even a long sword inserted into the woman's chest.

The woman's blood slowly dripped from the cross.

Freedom Square was currently surrounded by a huge and eerie silence, and people's desperate faces were reflected in the sight of more people - through the screen.

"Is this... the saint from [Free City]?" In the lobby of [Rose Mansion], in front of the old-style TV, Miss Nan couldn't help but open her mouth, with a face full of surprise, "She is not Miss Youye from the Kingdom of Heaven. Did you find a substitute? Why did it suddenly..."

But Miss Nan quickly stopped talking. When she saw the maid lady's smiling eyes, she knew that she had said the wrong thing in a moment of panic.

"The Saint is clearly here, but why..." Bertrand looked at the young man in white with confusion at this time, frowned and said: "Why does [Saint Fallen] appear when a counterfeit is killed? ]?"

The young man in white was groaning silently at this moment.

"What is [Holy Meteor]?" Boss Luo suddenly asked.

Bertrand said directly: "In the Kingdom of Holy Light, whenever there is a supreme death at the level of [Saint], [Saint Fall] will appear. Future Girl... Well, just like what you see now, Mr. Luo, the sky Elegies will sound, and believers will be in pain, as if the end of the world is coming. This is only the early stage. Along with the despair caused by the death of the [Saint], the piety of the believers will be swallowed up by the hollow madness in their hearts, and then they will die of madness. "

Boss Luo glanced at the maid, who nodded slightly, indicating that there was nothing wrong with what Bertrand said.

"In the Kingdom of Holy Light, have you ever thought about Holy Fall before?" Boss Luo suddenly asked at this time.

"It appeared once." Bertrand said with a solemn expression: "The only time it ever appeared was in the [Old Testament Capital] among the seven capitals."

"[Old Testament City]?" Miss Nan blinked. She quickly flipped through the book "Traveler's Guide to the City of Freedom" in her hand. Most of it introduced the "City of Freedom", but occasionally it was mentioned. Some things about the Seven Capitals, "Aren't the [Saints] of the [Old Testament Capital] still there?"

"[Saint] John was rebuilt after the [Old Testament Capital] was destroyed." Bertrand said slowly: "The former [Old Testament Capital] has been irreparable because of the fall of the first generation of [Saints]... that time [Holy Meteor] affected the entire Kingdom of Holy Light and was an unprecedented catastrophe. Later, in order to restore the Kingdom of Holy Light, [the Lord] used power to thoroughly cleanse the Kingdom of Holy Light and rebuild the [Old Testament] Capital], tetrarch John became the [Saint] of the new [Old Testament Capital]. In fact, the current [Old Testament Capital] should be called the [New Testament Capital]."

"This part of history must have been hidden." Miss Nan thought thoughtfully.

Bertrand nodded and said: "Of course it needs to be hidden, otherwise it will be meaningless to rebuild the [Old Testament Capital]... You don't know that the original [Holy Meteor] almost destroyed the Kingdom of Holy Light."

Nan Xiaonan couldn't help but gasped, and subconsciously said: "The Kingdom of Holy Light has seven capitals, as the seven pillars that support the world... Even if one of them is broken, it won't be unable to hold on, right?"

"Theoretically there is no problem, but in reality it is not." Bertrand shook his head: "Despair is like a plague. Once it breeds, if it is not eradicated, it will infect the entire Kingdom of Holy Light. If there is a disease, it needs to be eradicated, even if it is Bone scraping is also necessary. Although the original method of [the Lord] reduced the power of the Holy Light Kingdom to a terrible level for a long time, it must be done."

Miss Nan shrugged and said, "It's not easy to be a servant of a big power."

"So, who is the [Saint] who suffered the first [Saint Fall]?" Boss Luo asked thoughtfully.

However, the person who answered this time was not Bertrand, but the maid.

"Metanzo." She looked at her master and whispered softly: "Or... Metatron. Of course there are other names, but these are the two main ones."

"Metatron?" Boss Luo was startled in surprise, "I remember that this person doesn't seem to be in the orthodox system of the Kingdom of Heaven..."

The maid said calmly: "There are many systems in the world, but there is only one [Lord]. This is the automatic correction of legends in different worlds after unification. Similar to the world where you are, Master, where multiple religions coexist, In fact, there is only one known sub-world."

"In this way..." Boss Luo nodded, and immediately looked at the young man in white, "Your Excellency Archangel, since only the first level fall of the [Saint] will cause the [Saint Fall] to appear, why will the [Free City] also appear this time? [Holy Meteor] appears."

When Bertrand asked him this, he could remain silent.

Boss Luo asked him this, but he had to think about the consequences of not answering.

It can be heard that the Archangel was somewhat reluctant at this time, but he still said: "She is also a [Saint], but she only has the name of [Saint], and she cannot actually mobilize the power of the Holy Light. .Otherwise, the words of prayer of believers will not reach."

"In order to cover up what you did to the Saint, you actually managed to elevate an impostor to the status of a [Saint]?" Bertrand's forehead suddenly grew green, "It's simply... dirty!"

The young man in white clothes snorted, and the sound shocked Bertrand so much that he turned pale.

The young man in white immediately stood up, "The matter of the Holy Fall in [Free City] is very suspicious... Mr. Luo, since the matter of the Kingdom of Heaven is not urgent, then let me handle it first and then discuss it in detail. .”

Saying that, without waiting for Boss Luo to respond, the young man in white did not open the door, but turned into a ray of light and flashed out from the crack of the door.

"I feel like this guy feels uncomfortable if he stays here for a second longer?" Nan Xiaonan blinked at this moment and almost wanted to ask: Boss, are you bullying me?

"Lord Saint, let him go like this?!" Bertrand was immediately furious.

But the maid lady said calmly: "Mr. Bertrand, it seems that he is not very willing to let the Archangel leave. Why didn't you keep him just now?"

——If I, Tamar, can beat him, can I let him go? ?

Unable to get angry or angry, Bertrand could only slap his head and walk around angrily, anxious.

The maid looked at Boss Luo calmly and said, "Master, it's already your usual time to go to sleep. Do you need me to tidy up your bed?"

But Boss Luo smiled and said, "I may have to go to bed late tonight...or maybe I won't be able to sleep at all."

He looked towards the stairs in the lobby.

I saw a group of people, Durand, Lival...and Campus Principal Diluc, as well as male assistants, Asaches, and even Clary, walking out one after another at this time.

"I seem to have had a nightmare and just woke up." I heard Boss Asaches mutter to himself at this moment: "Then I found that I had entered a bigger nightmare... Can anyone tell me I, what happened outside?"

At this moment, Nan Xiaonan turned the old TV around, patted the casing of the TV series, blinked her big eyes like Kazilan and said, "Well, it will tell you... do you want to eat melon seeds?"

…

…

More and more people are coming to Freedom Square.

On the stairs leading up to Freedom Square, there were densely packed people standing there... People were holding white candles in their hands, their eyes were blank, and one by one, they silently climbed up the stairs leading to Freedom Square.

Extremely quiet.

At this time, a section of the Statue of the Virgin in Liberty Square has been cleared... Some people wearing different uniforms who appear to be guards are controlling the scene.

A group of people in different costumes are gathering together now...the expressions of these people are extremely solemn.

At this moment, a ray of light fell on this group of people.

Everyone felt the emotion instantly, bowed their heads one after another, and said in unison with great respect: "I have seen the [Archangel]!"

"I've met Mr. [Michael]!"

Among all the voices, there was one that seemed incongruous... The young man in white immediately looked at the source of this incongruous sound.

This is a white-haired old man with a crown on his head. He is the pope of [City of Blazing Sky]... The seven capitals each have different styles, such as the city lord of [Free City], such as [City of Dawn] The great president of [Seraph City], in [Seraph City], it is religion, and the pope is the representative of [Seraph].

"Why are you here?" The young man in white frowned, and then looked at the other people who were with the white-haired old man, "Why are you here?"

The white-haired Pope quickly replied: "Earlier, we all received an invitation from the Saint of [Free City] to attend the viewing ceremony of the Holy Maiden. I and several others also arrived earlier today... But I didn’t expect that such a shocking thing would happen late at night! Even you were alarmed, it seems that this is really... [Holy Death]!"

"The Saint of [Free City] invites you to watch the ceremony?" The young man in white frowned again.

"Yes." The white-haired pope broke out in cold sweat under the gaze of the young man in white. "In addition, after such a terrible thing happened, the situation of the residents of [Free City] was not very good, and even... The people from the Public Security Department also... So, I discussed it with several other managers and decided to temporarily close the scene... We also used our own manpower, so far, there has been no trouble. "

"You did nothing wrong." The young man in white nodded: "The [Saint Fall] is a saint from the [Free City]. You are from another seven cities, so you are not affected for the time being... Let's forget about the overstep of authority." . But why haven’t we taken down the saint’s body and left it hanging on the cross until now?”

The tone of the young man in white has become increasingly serious.

The white-haired Pope became more and more humble, "That is the body of the [Saint] after all. We...we dare not touch it without authorization. We also know that it is inappropriate to let the body of the [Saint] hang on it all the time. ,Can……"

"You don't have any courage!" The young man in white snorted coldly.

With a wave of his hand, the woman's body nailed to the huge bloody cross fell out of the air and slowly landed. Upon seeing this, the managers of the Seven Capitals fell to their knees on the ground.

He lowered his head, not daring to look directly, and not daring to speak out.

The young man in white groaned, then walked directly to the body of the woman that had been lowered... He stared at the body.

I saw that even though the woman looked pale because of death, there was still a strange smile on the woman's face.

The young man in white frowned at this time. He raised his hand as if he was going to do something, but suddenly stopped... The young man in white turned around and glanced at the managers of Qidu who were kneeling behind him, as well as those outside the square. The believers came holding candles... He finally lowered his slightly raised palms.

"I will return the saint's body to his residence."

"Any discussion of the death of the saint is prohibited."

"From now on, you will temporarily take over the affairs of [Freedom City], and immediately remove people from your respective capitals and enter [Freedom City]."

"As for the [Saint Fall] matter, I will give you an answer after discussing it with the [Saints] from the other seven capitals."

Orders came from the mouth of the young man in white.

The managers of the Seven Capitals listened attentively. It was not until the voice of the young man in white had stopped for a long time that the white-haired Pope tentatively raised his head.

The young man in white had already left, taking the body of the [Saint] with him.

"What do we do next?"

The managers of the Seven Capitals began to discuss at this time... The rest of the people looked at the white-haired Pope.

The white-haired old man smiled bitterly and said: "Everyone, although it is the Lord of [Blazing Sky City] who is coming this time, I am the same as you. I am afraid that other [Saints] will also appear soon. No need to look at me. , [Lord Michael] Whatever you say, we can just do it... By the way, His Excellency President Bailang, I think you brought the most people to this viewing ceremony, waiting to maintain the order of the masses. , I’ll ask you to put in more effort.”

"Of course." The President, who was wearing white eyeshadow, nodded now, "I'm very good at maintaining order."

"Let's divide the work and cooperate!" The white-haired Pope said seriously at this time.

The managers of Qidu began to get busy.

…

…

The light has just landed on the residence of the saint in [Freedom City].

A figure quickly walked out of the darkness and came to the back of the shining figure. He lowered his head and said respectfully: "Sir!"

"Grabe." The young man in white nodded slightly, "Follow me inside and then we'll talk."

"Yes, my lord."
