The hypnotic spell has been released, and there are no restraints on Ren's body, but he has no intention of escaping or resisting at this moment. He sat slumped on the ground without saying a word.
He was very aware of each other's strength. Not to mention that the giant Gerald was in front of him, even if Gerald was not there, he might not be able to win with the mage Satan alone - and that was based on the premise that he was in good condition.
Now he was seriously injured, with most of the bones in his shoulders broken. If he hadn't just drank some healing potion, the pain would be excruciating. How could he still have the strength to resist
Now that things have come to this, we can only accept our fate and have no choice but to think about it.
"Ren, why are you plotting against us?" Gerald shouted angrily, his roar echoing in the forest like a gust of wind.
"I'm about to die. In order to please the Gloomy Moon (another name for the God of Conspiracy) and gain the qualifications to go to his kingdom, I designed such a scam, hoping to please Your Majesty by deceiving you." Ren said frankly, "But I failed and His Majesty abandoned me. Now I am completely finished. Life is meaningless to me. The door to purgatory has been opened to me. It is just a question of when to fall."
Upon hearing these words, the thieves' expressions suddenly changed, and they all glared at him. If it weren't for Gerald's power, I'm afraid they would have attacked him on the spot and cut the old man into pieces.
Because both of them have "Illusion" as one of their main responsibilities, and their responsibilities overlap, the God of Thieves and the God of Conspiracy have a very bad relationship, and can be called life-and-death enemies. For thieves who believe in the God of Thieves, Ren, who believes in the God of Conspiracy, is not only an enemy, but also a despicable traitor.
If it were in the world of some martial arts novels, this kind of thing would definitely give him three swords and six holes!
Renn didn't care at all about these looks that were almost killing people. He has no choice but to die anyway, so what else is there to be afraid of
"Haha." Sui Xiong's laughter rang in the air, "The God of Conspiracy has not abandoned you. On the contrary, your behavior has greatly pleased Him."
"What?!" Ren's eyes lit up and he hurriedly looked at the small transparent jellyfish that suddenly appeared in the air, "But why didn't His Majesty answer my prayer?"
"Because I intercepted it." Sui Xiong said with a smile, "The envoy he sent was also intercepted by me - by the way, the envoy called the Four-faced Monster under the God of Conspiracy, although he looks very strange, he tastes But it’s surprisingly good. It’s fresh and delicious, with endless aftertaste!”
Ren's body shook suddenly and he understood Sui Xiong's identity. Suddenly his face turned pale, he fell to the ground miserably, and he couldn't say a word.
He originally thought that he was so clever that he had arranged everything well, and successfully managed to manipulate a big giant, a small mage, and a rookie god into the palm of his hand. As a result, he found that his plan was not wrong, but the target of his calculation was wrong.
The god behind the giant Gerald is not a rookie, he is clearly a super strong man who has never appeared in the world! He even let Him eat the envoys of His Majesty, the God of Conspiracy. I really can’t imagine how powerful He is!
He actually had a bad idea on this great god. His luck was really bad. He probably did too many bad things in his life. The goddess of fate had tied herself up with her silk thread that mortals couldn't see, and tied one end to purgatory. Inside...
After being completely desperate, he became calm. He looked at Sui Xiong calmly with a pair of lifeless eyes and said numbly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for not knowing your name. But it doesn't matter. You can punish me however you want." Please do whatever you want."
Sui Xiong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he looked at the useless look on his face that was filled with grief. What he wanted to punish was the old thief who was as cunning as a fox, not the loser in front of him who was just more breathless than a dead man.
The transparent little jellyfish circled around Ren for several times. After studying it carefully for a while, Sui Xiong suddenly had an idea in his mind.
"Since you voluntarily accepted the punishment, don't blame me for being careless!" He sneered, and the transparent jellyfish body transformed by the power of the soul twisted and transformed into a thick palm, with the golden word "Wan" on the palm. Pattern, slapped on Ren's forehead.
"The sea of suffering is boundless, but when you turn around, you will find the shore!"
With a loud shout, Sui Xiong silently imagined all kinds of sincerity, kindness and beauty in the world, all kinds of prosperity scenes, all kinds of unremitting struggles, all kinds of joyful scenes... Countless thoughts merged into a golden light, with that palm The power seemed to hit Ren's forehead, but in fact it knocked open his soul and rushed into it.
Ren screamed and his body twitched. The pain of being wounded in the soul was far greater than being hurt in the physical body. Even if he was despairing, he could not bear the severe pain. For a moment, I really wanted to die now. Even if I had to go to purgatory to be tortured after death, it would be better than the pain and suffering now.
The thieves around looked at the pitiful appearance of their boss who was begging for death. They were all frightened out of their wits. They only heard the sound of crashing. Several of the thieves who were not brave enough were so scared that they even peeed out. For a moment, they were stinking. It's even more difficult to endure the smoke.
Fortunately, they brought a lot of supplies for this treasure hunt. They found a few pairs of clean pants for these cowards to change into, and then threw the dirty pants away. Then Satan cast a spell to summon a strong wind to blow by, and the smell disappeared. It was all blown away, and everyone’s noses finally no longer need to be poisoned.
Strangely enough, within just a short while, Ren, who was screaming in agony, had calmed down. His eyes were blank, he didn't know what he was thinking, he just stared at the sky blankly.
"Ren, have you woken up?" Sui Xiong's incarnation turned back into a floating jellyfish and asked loudly.
Ren was awakened by the loud shout and sat up again. He was silent for a long time and then burst into tears.
I saw him crying until his heart was broken, crying until his heart was broken, crying until he was gloomy, crying until he burst into tears... No, forget it, the painting style is wrong - Sui Xiong thought silently.
Ren cried for a long time and finally stopped. His shoulder was injured and he couldn't raise his hand to wipe his face. The tears on his face were mixed with dust, and there were white streaks and black streaks. He looked really embarrassed.
But his eyes were very clear, something his subordinates had never seen in all these years. Calm and gentle, like a clear lake with no shadow at all, it makes people want to get close to it as soon as they see it, without any warning.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for making me wake up. Now I have nothing to fear." Ren said calmly, "I have done countless bad things in my life, and I deserve to go to hell to atone for my sins. Even if I have to suffer all kinds of painful punishments in purgatory, It’s nothing compared to the pain I’ve given others in my life.”
"It's too late to repent when you're about to die. But it's better to repent in the end than not to repent." He stood up with force and looked around at his subordinates, his face full of guilt.
"Over the years, I have done a lot of things that I'm sorry for you. I used you to do bad things, embezzled most of your hard work, and blocked your progress time and time again... I apologize to you, but I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness. .”
After saying that, he let out a long sigh and looked up at the sky.
"I remember when I was a child, I used to lie on the roof of my house and look at the sky. At that time, I was always imagining what the sky looked like? Legend has it that heaven is in the sky, and kind people can go there. Under the guidance of the most benevolent gods, Living peacefully in the beautiful country created... What does heaven look like? I really want to see it... "
His voice gradually became lower, and his body fell limply, no longer breathing.
he died.
In Sui Xiong's eyes, as Ren's physical aura was cut off, a transparent and old figure flew out of him. The figure looked at his body sadly, shook his head, and sighed. After bowing to Sui Xiong again, he slowly sank toward the ground. It seemed that he was about to fall into the underworld and go to hell to be punished.
At this moment, a clear light that could not be seen by mortals fell from the sky and fell on Ren's soul.
In the white light, an old man wearing a simple gray cloth cloak, a silver ring on his forehead, smiling and holding a pipe appeared, and held Ren's shoulders.
"The Lord of Repentance said that no matter how many sins you commit during your lifetime, as long as you can sincerely repent, you should be redeemed." The old man said to Ren, "You should not go to hell, but should turn your repentance into atonement. behavior to help those in need.”
Ren was stunned. After a while, he came back to his senses and asked in disbelief: "You... are you the messenger of the Lord of Redeemer? I have never worshiped that god... "
"Our Majesty never decides who should go to his kingdom based on belief or not. Only those souls who redeem themselves and others are qualified to go to the Alms Valley. You redeemed yourself at the last moment of your life, so Your Majesty Let me greet you." The old man said kindly, "Follow me, your road is still long."
Ren was so surprised that he couldn't help but shed tears again. He bowed deeply to Sui Xiong, followed the old man, and flew into the sky on the clear light.
Sui Xiong watched him go away and smiled slightly. I was about to express some thoughts such as "Everything yesterday is like dying yesterday, and everything today is like living today", suddenly something happened in my heart.
The giant jellyfish floating in the air turned its head and bowed slightly to the plainly dressed woman who appeared next to it to show courtesy.
"Hello, God of Redemption."
"Hello, kind new god." The woman looked about twenty-five or sixty-six. Her appearance was not beautiful, but she was gentle and approachable. Her eyes exuded a gentle light that made people feel calm. She was the incarnation of the God of Redemption. He sensed that someone used strange means to make a sinful soul repent at the last moment of his life. He couldn't help but be very interested and came to the human world specially to meet Sui Xiong.
The God of Redemption, also known as the Lord of Repentance, the Last Word Listener, etc., is not a powerful god. His teachings require believers to redeem themselves and others, which is really difficult to do. Therefore, his faith has not been widely spread, and even among his pastors, there are many who have difficulty practicing the teachings. Those who can truly practice his teachings are often on the verge of death and are unlikely to spread his teachings and promote his glory.
This senior person among the gods has always been in an awkward position. He firmly believed that he was right, but was troubled about how to promote his ideas. Until he met Sui Xiong at this moment, enlightenment finally arose in his heart, and he felt that he had seen the trajectory of fate.
The God of Salvation, who transformed into a "last words listener", raised his hand, and a soft white light flew out and fell on Sui Xiong. It was quickly absorbed and stored, waiting to be slowly analyzed and studied in the future.
"This is my divine power and some useful information. You can study it slowly. I look forward to seeing you at the joint meeting of the Supreme Beings as soon as possible. I believe that by then, we will be able to carry out beneficial cooperation. .”
"I'm sorry, but I haven't found a clue to becoming a god yet." Sui Xiong said.
The gentle goddess waved her hand and her figure gradually faded away: "That doesn't matter, time doesn't mean much to you and me. I have been waiting for a long time. Now I finally know that my waiting was not wrong, which makes me very satisfied."
Watching the God of Redemption leave, carefully experiencing the divine power he had received, and engraving the large amount of information contained in it into his heart, Sui Xiong had a vague understanding that the road leading to the altar was finally in his heart. A ray of light appeared in the chaos.
