"Hahahaha, the sun! It's actually the sun! It's actually the sun!"
171 The Struggle of the Prophets
The tears and blood in his eyes flowed out more and more crazily as Sanchez laughed wildly. But the more he laughed, the happier he became.
Prophets will eventually die because of their prophecies. This is the original curse on them. The higher the position, the more they cannot escape this iron law.
So many years ago, like all prophets, he began to think about how they should escape this iron law.
It is ridiculous that the prophets who clearly do not allow others to break their prophecies cannot tolerate themselves being trapped in the prophecies.
After long thinking and hard work, he finally saw a glimmer of hope on the chessboard of the gods.
So he set up a trap. Unlike the previous attempts of his peers, his method of breaking the prophecy was to rely on high-ranking officials and other people.
But the most important thing is to let the goddess of luck roll the unknown dice.
They are both fools and greedy. Finally, the goddess of luck throws an interesting number, and the fate of you, me and him is changed.
Wait and expect, will the sun rise as usual, or will the dark day of thieves rise
This was a prophecy he made himself to cooperate with the actions of his Lord God, and it was the only prophecy that gave him hope.
The prophecy made it clear that the fate of these participants would change depending on the numbers cast by the goddess of luck.
Even gods and kings are involved in this.
The above two points made him start active preparations many years ago. It was also for this reason that he sent out the prophecy scrolls of the Fool and the Greedy.
Otherwise, how could two minor characters receive the gift from the angel of foresight
All they did was to let the goddess of luck cast that crucial number, so as to change the fate and outcome of those who participated in the game.
Now he was sure that the first half of the prophecy had been completed, and what remained was the competition between the Sun and the Dark Sun.
In theory, the latter part has nothing to do with him, but...
After laughing crazily, Sanchez slowly stood up. Although there were still blood and tears in his eyes, they were no longer as wild as they were at the beginning.
For angels, being blind is both an influence and not an influence. Even for prophets, it may not be a bad thing.
He lost the opportunity to see the world with his own eyes, but this allowed him to observe everything more carefully.
But that’s not important, what really matters is this.
As Sanchez stood up, a stone slab appeared from nothingness.
That is the inscription that prophets have always loved to use to record their prophecies.
But now, the inscription that was originally clearly visible has become completely blurred.
This was his prophecy about his own end. Predicting one's own end was a taboo for prophets. Because they couldn't escape the prophecy, they naturally resisted knowing their own end. It was a nightmare journey with no turning back!
It is also the kind of gambling that the prophets hate the most because there is no way to cheat in advance, not to mention that the gambling is about the rest of their lives!
But Sanchez doesn't care about this. If he doesn't even know his own ending, how can he break it
And if you don’t even know this, then doesn’t it mean that every prophecy could be the beginning of your own destruction
So he predicted his own ending and has been working hard to change it.
Now, looking at the blurry slate, Sanchez couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly.
The ending was broken!
And the most wonderful thing is that he also attracted the sun.
Everything was moving towards his and the Lord God's prophecy, but everything was also undergoing subtle changes in subtle ways.
When all this accumulates to the point of bearing fruit, Sanchez thought it would be extremely charming!
In the void outside the spiritual world, it is still under the big green tree that came from nowhere.
The Prophet's Sequence Zero was still leaning against the tree trunk.
Even the high and mighty gods can only sit there doing nothing all day in this hellhole.
Suddenly, He raised His head from the tree trunk, then reached into the void and took out a stone slab.
There is only one sentence recorded on it:
Sánchez Moren will die as an angel.
However, as He looked at it, the prophecy that was originally unavoidable gradually became blurred, and in the end, it was completely impossible to see what was recorded on it.
After staring for a long time, a rather touching word came out of His mouth:
"Sanchez succeeded."
He seemed to be pleased with the success of His followers.
As the main god of Sanchez, he naturally invested a lot of energy and attention in his only remaining angels. Even though they were far away in this empty ghost place, they were able to do many things as gods.
But after a moment, He said with a sneer:
"He is obviously the person closest to me at the moment, and he is obviously a very remarkable prophet. Obviously, we can tamper with other people's predictions and the future. But why can't you understand that breaking fate and even changing the ending are completely different from dying in a prophecy?"
"How can the iron law of our father be broken so easily?"
As He spoke, He shook his head helplessly.
Sanchez's actions seemed to him like a joke. He even had a glimmer of hope that he could see Sanchez break the original iron rule so that he could learn from it and follow his example.
But now it seems that Sanchez has never understood the crux of the problem.
Then He waved His hand across the stone slab again, and a new prophecy about Sanchez was engraved on it.
Sánchez Moren, from angel to thief.
A very ironic prophecy.
Even though He believed that He had seen countless storms and witnessed countless legends, He was still stunned for a moment when He saw this prophecy.
From angel to thief?!
Sanchez, this is, this is the fall from the high and mighty angel of foresight, the high priest of the Church of the Peeper to a lowly thief like a worm
How could a former angel fall to the point of making a living by stealing
Is this the birth of an extremely absurd joke
After a brief moment of astonishment, He smiled, shook his head, and whispered:
"It's a good joke. Well, I should take advantage of this good mood to cheer myself up."
A brand new stone tablet appeared before Him, and He then made a prophecy for Himself in a serious manner:
The only refuge for those who spy on the future is about to return in grand fashion!
Perfect even beyond His expectations for the best prophecy!
Before this, He even thought about whether He would be tricked by that unknown bastard again. He also thought about whether He would stay in this empty prison forever.
But I really never thought it would have such a wonderful ending!
His prophecies are infallible!
So this time He wins!
172 The Real Madman (3k)
The exiled evil god was waiting for his return with great joy. During a brief thought, Mozo in the captain's room suddenly saw an eye in a flash in front of his eyes.
An eye hidden among steel and triangles.
Mozo knew what that was. It was the icon of the Church of the Voyeur, a cult organization that was identified after the War of the Four Gods!
By combining this scroll, he can clearly guess what is happening and give him a hint.
But who is it
Mozo began to look for inspiration in the room according to his experience in mysticism. Normally, this kind of existence that helps you out of kindness will usually leave a mark somewhere, which may be active or passive due to the fateful entanglement between the two.
It was very simple. Mozo found the corresponding symbol on the window - two sacred trees nestled together condensed from mist.
"The Two Sacred Trees...?"
After Mozo told who the other party was, he raised his hand to wipe off the traces.
Do the Two Trees know I'm still here
Or is it something else
Because there was too little information at hand, Mozo didn't think much about it.
He also had to rush to save Audrey.
After rubbing his eyes, Mozo took the paper and pen from the table and began to sketch out the various rituals, inscriptions, holy feasts and other secret knowledge of the Voyeur Church on the paper.
Normally, it would not be enough to "frame" all the crew members on an airship with just these.
But these guys themselves are smugglers who cannot withstand investigation.
It’s just that under normal circumstances, not many people would investigate it seriously. But what if someone reported them as cultists and actually found the corresponding evidence
And the result was obvious, so Mozo shrugged his shoulders and casually hid the papers filled with cult rituals in an inconspicuous place.
In the end, Mozo left the airship by spending only a few gold coins and sending a few idle men to run to the nearby church to report.
I believe that soon someone from the church will come to check it out in person.
In fact, if possible, he would like to write on it vicious words insulting the sun or the storm in the secret language of the Peeping Church.
But the thought that such a thing could easily alarm people who shouldn't be alarmed made Mozo give up the idea.
But even so, it was enough to bring bad luck to these smugglers.
However, what Mozo didn't know was that after he left the captain's room, for some unknown reason, the bookcase in the captain's room, which was supposed to be locked, suddenly opened and many documents fell out of it.
There was also the captain's log, and on it was clearly written the following content - I prayed to the Storm King and the Goddess Hevis today, but they ignored me and my ship's sails were set on fire by the thunderstorm. What a pair of bastards!
Today I prayed to the Lord of Light and the Lord of Eternity again, but they ignored me. My ship almost crashed into the mountains because it lost its sails. What a pair of bastards!
I prayed to the goddess of wealth today, but this bitch didn't pay any attention to me. A rat even gnawed a hole in my small safe, causing all my gold coins to fall out! What a hateful bitch goddess!
... .
When the clergy of the church came over just for routine, the priest who accidentally picked up the diary was almost shocked after just glancing at it.
The accompanying soldiers and sheriffs were also stunned as they expressed their repentance and prayed for forgiveness to the main god of their faith. How could such horrible blasphemous words appear on paper so openly!
There was no need to search for anything else. This log alone was enough to make the priests and church soldiers flee from this sinful airship in a hurry.
I was afraid that if I ran too slowly, I would be blown to pieces by divine punishment that came from nowhere.
At the same time, the entire dock was forcibly blocked.
Then, groups of knights and bishops from various churches came here one after another.
There are many people who offend and disrespect gods, but it is really rare to dare to make such a crazy and direct statement in words and offend so many people at once.
However, in a place that everyone, even Mozo, had overlooked, there was a small padlock under the cabinet that was supposed to be locked that was completely disappearing.
This was what Sanchez had given to the captain along with his scroll. It was a replica, but it also had the power to trade misfortune for secrecy. The original had been destroyed by Sanchez's gaze on the sun.
Because of this, this imitation was destroyed.
This was a small prophecy among Sanchez's many prophecies. It was also a small plot of his madness. However, if he knew how outrageous this captain was, he would not think that his actions and thoughts could be called arrogant.
The small captain's room was packed with important figures that even the Grand Duke of Nuremberg had difficulty finding in the past.
The bishops from various major churches stationed here all looked at the log in amazement.
They miraculously discovered that they were no longer angry, and were only filled with amazement.
Because this was the first time they saw someone so inconspicuous and yet so bold.
Who was the last time someone offended so many supreme beings at once
I kind of forgot about it, but it's definitely not comparable to a smuggling ship captain.
After a brief moment of amazement, the next thing to do was very simple. After randomly arresting a crew member and asking him a few questions, the other person immediately cried and confessed the captain's entire family history.
The crew members were also shocked. They knew that the smuggling captain was a ruthless character who would not hesitate to kill himself, but like the adults in the church, they really did not expect that their captain would be so reckless.
