This is the light of the holy city!
Is Lü Cheng planning to go back?
“Not only that.” Song Qiming’s eyes narrowed slightly.
"That's... Raphael!"
Even the archangels have arrived?
"Archangel? What is that?" Mo Fan asked, puzzled.
"Is it strong?"
"Do you think Hai La is strong?" Song Qiming asked.
“Of course,” Mo Fan said.
Even through the barrier of the dark execution ground, he could sense that the thing was even more terrifying than the Totem Serpent. After sensing the presence of that creature, the demonic bloodline within him was not as restless as before, but rather extremely docile!
“Archangels also have varying strengths. Among the Swift Angels who are out in the world, the weakest is about the same as the Skeleton Angel,” Song Qiming said.
"But if it's the archangel of the Holy City, like the one you're seeing now, who is most likely Raphael, even if he leaves the Holy City, he can still treat the skeleton like a baby."
Mo Fan's eye twitched. "That strong?"
Even the weakest are about the same as the skeleton?
"Wait, leave the Holy City? Will they be stronger in the Holy City?" Mo Fan asked.
Song Qiming nodded. "Yes, the Holy City is similar to Parthenon. Within a certain barrier, they are blessed by the divine power of their ancestors."
"Within the Holy City, ordinary angels can gain almost double the power."
"But the archangels are less reliant on the blessing of the barrier. They use angelic soul embryos, similar to the knightly souls of the Parthenon. The Parthenon has twelve knightly souls, corresponding to the twelve Olympian gods in Greek mythology, while the angelic soul embryos of the Holy City correspond to the seven archangels in mythology."
"The Parthenon's Knightly Soul is bestowed by a goddess who possesses the Parthenon's Divine Soul. Only when the goddess is in power is the Parthenon truly powerful. The Holy Soul can grant the knight combat strength comparable to forbidden spells, and not just any forbidden spells."
"So, that's why these guys went to such lengths to seize Xin Xia's soul?" Mo Fan said.
“Yes, if Yi Zhisha really gets the Parthenon Soul, she will control both the resurrection magic and the knight's holy soul. At that time, even if everyone knows that everything tonight was Yi Zhisha's conspiracy, it will be meaningless,” Song Qiming said.
He didn't know how many people would be tempted by the resurrection magic, and as for the Knight's Holy Soul, there were plenty of people in Parthenon's Knights' Hall who were willing to become Izsa's lackeys for that powerful force.
"What about the angels of the Holy City? What's the situation with that thing?" Mo Fan asked.
"Like the Parthenon? Could it be a gift from some god?"
“The angelic soul embryos of the Holy City were indeed created by their legendary god, but they are different from the Holy Soul of Parthenon. Ordinary angelic soul embryos can be awakened through the secret methods of the Holy City, but archangelic soul embryos appear randomly,” Song Qiming said.
"The seven archangels are born all over the world. They are God's eyes and ears as He travels the world, and they can be anyone."
"The way an archangel soul descends is similar to the Parthenon soul. That thing has its own consciousness and will choose its own master. Therefore, before each generation of archangels actively declares their existence, no one knows their identity."
Mo Fan looked puzzled. "Random appearance? In other words, it's possible for me to become an archangel?"
Song Qiming glanced at Mo Fan as if he were an idiot, "The archangel soul embryo is similar to an innate talent, which will manifest when magic is awakened. Moreover, as I said, that thing has its own consciousness and will choose the individual that best fits its will to descend."
"you?"
Mo Fan's eye twitched. "What's wrong with me?"
“The host of an archangel’s soul embryo may be violent, stubborn, kind, or even insane, but without exception, there are no scoundrels among archangels,” Song Qiming said.
"..."
"Holy crap?!" Mo Fan's eyes twitched violently.
"What are you looking at?"
"To add one more point, archangels are self-aware; they know exactly what they are," Asha'ruya added.
"..." Mo Fan.
Protruding!
……
On the other side, Archangel Raphael, along with a host of angels, apostles, and the Arbiter, stopped outside the Acropolis of Athens.
Upon seeing the people from the Holy City, the several Holy Judge mages who had fled the city seemed to have seen a savior and ran towards Raphael.
"Archangel! There are heretics here!"
"Someone has defied the Dark Judgment! They have even slaughtered the Judgment Mages!"
The disheveled holy judges recounted what had happened on Mount Parthenon, one after another.
The totem serpent was taken to the sacred mountain, and several women used extremely dangerous forbidden dark arts, a demonic power that even a super-level Saint Judgment expert could not resist!
Raphael remained calm, his gaze never leaving the direction of Mount Parthenon, and he seemed not to have heard the words of the holy judges.
After a long while, the holy judges finally stopped, not because they had finished speaking, but because they realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
Everyone present possessed an angelic soul, even the Arbiter was at least a winged Archangel.
Moreover, how could Archangel Raphael have left the Holy City?
242. Chapter 240 Raphael
242.
……
"Are you done talking?" Raphael looked away.
"what?"
"Then die."
No sooner had he finished speaking than several holy figures behind Raphael appeared behind the disheveled holy judge mages and pierced through their bodies with a single blow.
The blazing fire burned rapidly, instantly reducing the holy judges to ashes.
"Shelp this area off and don't allow anyone to leave. Anyone who tries to force their way in, no need to say anything, just burn it down," Raphael said.
Upon hearing this, the angels and judges quickly dispersed and flew towards the outskirts of the Acropolis.
Raphael, on the other hand, lowered his altitude and flew slowly towards the dark execution ground.
Upon seeing this, Durant, who had been in despair, became excited again.
"Ha ha ha ha!!"
"I won in the end!!"
"You won?" Song Qiming looked at him like he was crazy.
Do you think Raphael will side with you?
Each archangel has a different personality. Since returning to the Holy City, Raphael has basically stayed out of business, only occasionally participating in the training and instruction of the angels. He is the most low-key archangel besides Uriel.
Currently, Remiel is in charge of managing the Holy City and some affairs of the Holy Judgment Council.
If Remiel were here, he might worry that the guy would choose to bury the truth here for the sake of the Holy Tribunal's prestige and because of what happened with Ventay.
But Raphael might be a different story.
The archangels are not united; their beliefs differ, and there have been instances of conflict among them in the past.
The archangels also bear a great deal of responsibility for the Holy City becoming what it is today.
External forces can penetrate because of internal flaws and vulnerabilities.
"He might not be on my side, but he definitely won't be on your side!" Dulan pointed at Mu Ningxue and the others.
"You! You heretics!"
"Not only did you place the totem serpent on the sacred mountain and slaughter a large number of Parthenon mages, but you also used demonic power to massacre the mages of the Holy Tribunal. Raphael will not let you get away with this!"
"..."
"What kind of looks are those?" Durank had a bad feeling.
Song Qiming and his group remained silent. Although Mo Fan was a little flustered, he saw that Mu Ningxue and the others were not flustered, and that Pang Lai, the chief of the court, and Bao Laotou, the old priest of the Holy Tribunal, did not say anything, so he was no longer flustered.
Before long, Raphael arrived at the dark execution ground, flying at low altitude. He did not make a big fuss, with only a pair of simple wings behind him. It was his unique aura and the archangel's exclusive battle armor that announced his identity.
After glancing at the skeleton in the dark execution ground and then at the Parthenon spirit reflected on Ye Xinxia's body, Raphael walked towards the location of Song Qiming and his group.
"Raphael!" Dulan shouted as he ran towards Raphael, repeating what Mu Ningxue and the others had done.
Raphael remained expressionless and ignored Durank, walking until he reached Song Qiming and his group before finally stopping.
“Old priest, after tonight, please come back with me and we need to clarify some things,” Raphael said.
"What is it?" Song Qiming asked.
“You know it yourself.” Raphael didn’t look at Song Qiming again, but turned his gaze to Asha’ruya.
"You didn't take my words to heart."
"What, is the archangel angry?" Asha Ruya smiled, showing no fear whatsoever.
Rigid and stubborn, positive yet negative, Raphael is also a contradictory person. Despite being the first to return to the Holy City, he has never been very noticeable.
