Chapter 556: The cunning devil
“I don’t care what they’re up to. Just kill them all and everything will be over.”

Lu Chen disappeared again after giving the orders. He was a little bored by the respect from the crowd.

the difference in strength and status is too great. There’s no way we can be friends.

After Lu Chen made his decision to leave, Catherine sighed and held her forehead. She then went to talk to Yi Lian alone, ” “Isn’t this place a little too simple for that great existence?”

“Um.”

Looking at the head that Catherine pointed at, Helene couldn’t find any words to reply to her.

Catherine didn’t say anything more. She could only warn him, ” tell that person to be careful. Our opponent is not only the church but also the three great empires. They will not just stand by and watch as the God exists. Although they will not take the initiative to stand up against the God, the reason why the church headquarters reacted so quickly is most likely because they have their support behind the scenes.

After she finished speaking, she advised Helene, ”

the reason why you and that great existence can fight against the church that has been strong for a hundred years is that that existence is a God. However, even if a God personally descends to the mortal world, he will not be able to have an absolute advantage. This will bring great hidden dangers and will even make the mortals suspicious. If possible, let us do it and let that existence watch. This way, even if we fail, there is still room for us to turn things around.

“I know, I’ll tell him all of this.”

……

As Catherine had expected, the three great empires were not willing to wait for their deaths, but they were also afraid of the mighty power of the gods.

In such a situation where both sides were afraid of each other, the three empires chose to support the church and let the church be the vanguard to see if the power of the God was real.

The church had no choice but to take the initiative to stand up and resist. After all, although theocracy and Royal power were opposing forces, there was always room for cooperation. However, there could only be one voice within the church. Unless they completely surrendered, they could only resist.

Heathens deserved to die more than heretics!

……

The Pope who controlled the fire of prayers was an old man. After seeing that the flame was safe and sound, he returned to the church hall from underground and met his Archbishop.

“The soldiers of the Empire have arrived?”

“Your holiness, those cunning Kings are not willing to send regular soldiers. They only sent mercenaries and bandits.”

hehe, they’re just a bunch of Masters who won’t act until they see the rabbit. Don’t worry, we won’t fail. False gods are false gods, after all. This is just a test given to us by the true God.

The Pope calmly encouraged his subordinates, acting as if he didn’t care about anything. This attitude also made the situation below quiet down a little.

However, their peace didn’t last long. When Yi Lian flew up to the sky and reported Catherine’s warning to Lu Chen, he immediately gave his orders.

The next day, the church’s headquarters and the church’s fence-sitters in other countries were surprised to find that in the face of the provocation of the church’s headquarters ‘false god, the great existence that had incarnated into the sun did not make the other side submit. Instead, under the leadership of Holy maiden Irene, he kept withdrawing people from the church’s surroundings.

what is that fake God trying to do? he didn’t attack us while everyone else was discussing the death of the God. Instead, he’s retreating. Is he trying to break the foundation of the people around our church? ”

While gathering power to let the church personnel return, the Pope was also thinking about the order given by the false god.

Just as he was in doubt, the situation outside quickly came. Soon, he learned from the spies that the false Holy maiden named Irene had evacuated the crowd to a radius of 1000 miles. The order given by the false god was to evacuate everything within 1000 miles of the church within three days.

everyone within a thousand miles has retreated. That God is daydreaming.

This was what everyone was thinking. At the same time, they could not understand the reason for the God’s actions.

Of course, there were also some people who thought of something.

Nogvia III was one of them. Looking at the report in his hand, he had an absurd idea.

could it be that he’s a true God, and he’s preparing to use divine punishment to wipe out everything within a thousand miles? how is that possible? I’m so busy that I’m confused. How could such a thing happen? ”

He was shaking his head. However, his trembling hands, which could not even hold the teacup steadily, showed his feelings.

“Investigate, strictly investigate the actions of that Holy maiden. You must find out the truth!”

Suppressing the fear in his heart, nogvia III issued such an order.

When he gave the order, he also slowed down his support for the church. After taking a look at Irene’s face, he even sent a group of silver-haired girls to the Royal capital of retania. These girls were all nuns who served the gods, and one of them was even his daughter.

Betting on multiple sides had always been a tradition of the nobles. This way, no matter which side won, they would not be completely destroyed.

Nogvia III wasn’t the only one who did the same. Lu Chen’s order might seem brainless, but it was terrifying when you thought about it.

“If the thousand-mile range mayfly is real, then that person is a God!”

Even if it wasn’t originally, a terrifying monster that could destroy an area of a thousand miles with one strike would become a God.

Just like that, in a short period of time, a group of girls with long silver hair came to Irene’s side. Looking at the beautiful woman with the same hair as her, Irene was dumbfounded.

I only realized today that there are many silver-haired people in our world.

In the spirit Qi continent, one had to cultivate a special technique to cause their hair to change. The humans in this world were similar to the West, and their hair was of various colors. Although silver was rare, there was still a lot of it.

There were even some who had dyed their hair.

Sister Irene couldn’t do anything to them and told Lu Chen about it. Unfortunately, he was too busy controlling the gravity to care about it.

I’ve completed the nuclear fusion. The problem now is to control the nuclear fusion and not let it cause a chain explosion, but to provide me with stable light and heat.

The 21st century’s goal to control nuclear fusion was to find inertial confinement fusion or magnetic control. Lu Chen, on the other hand, relied on gravity like the sun. However, he had to strictly control the fluctuations of gravity to control the nuclear fusion within the size of a small ball. He also had to consider the problem of multitasking, which was quite troublesome for Lu Chen.

the control of energy depends on the soul and mental strength. A large soul will naturally have fine control over energy. Do I have to improve my soul first? a large number of believers will be subdued by me soon. With so many believers, I can improve my soul, but without enough will, hundreds of millions of believers will be enough to distort my mind.

After thinking for a while, Lu Chen finally raised his willpower.

The process of his improvement was simple. He would let go of the suppression on the other ghosts and deities other than the first one and then take control of them one by one. The relaxation would result in a backlash and in the process of controlling them, Lu Chen would be attacked by the will of the ghosts and deities. Every time he resisted it, Lu Chen’s will would be greatly improved.

As for the number one Demon God, he was too strong. Lu Chen was afraid that if he let his guard down, he would become Prince red who only knew how to kill. Therefore, he decided to keep the number one Demon God.

The benefits of such a confrontation were obvious. His will was improved in the resistance, and another benefit was that his control over the ghost God was also improved.

However, Lu Chen felt a little weird.

aren’t I trying to find a way to obtain unlimited energy? why did it end up with willpower? let’s just forget about it. I’m just increasing my strength anyway.

The training lasted for a long time. But what made Lu Chen speechless was that a day later, Yi Lian came to Lu Chen’s side and started complaining.

Your Majesty, your orders have been carried out, but it’s too difficult to move everything within a thousand miles of the church.

Yi Lian’s words also made Lu Chen realize that he was being too willful. With the productivity of this era, even with the help of magic, it would be hard to move so many people away. But Lu Chen didn’t stop thinking about the explosion.

He knew that if he wanted the others to submit to him, he would need a carrot and a stick. Lu Chen had already given him the carrot for three days and the glory that shone on millions of people was enough to prove his mercy.

But now, he had to give them a big stick. He was prepared to be a dignified God, not the kind that was ordered around by others. He could not satisfy everyone’s requests, but he would not allow others to make random requests, which would increase the burden on his will.

With that in mind and the fact that Lu Chen wanted to see what kind of threat he could cause after understanding the meaning of the explosion, he was ready to detonate the bomb.

However, he was not willing to kill everyone in one go, regardless of friend or foe.

After frowning and thinking for a while, Lu Chen came up with a new idea.

you may leave. I know what to do. However, we still need to continue evacuating the people.

While Lu Chen was thinking of a new idea, the Pope was panicking on the other side. But after a long night of thinking, he suddenly thought of something and laughed out loud.

“Hahahaha!”

The wild laughter attracted everyone’s attention, and many worried bishops looked at each other. Finally, an old Bishop said, ”

“Your holiness, Why are you laughing?”

hahaha, I’m laughing at our stupidity for being afraid for so long. I’m also laughing at that false god who likes to play tricks. It seems that false god is an evil demon who likes to manipulate people’s hearts.

“What do you mean?”

“Hmph, if you knew that the little girl named Yi Lian wanted to migrate everyone within a thousand li of the church, what would you think?”

Without waiting for the others to respond, the Pope answered his own question, ” you think that person is a real God, and you’re preparing to send down divine punishment to completely destroy the land within a thousand miles, right? ”

This was indeed what everyone was thinking, but no one dared to say it.

At this moment, not only did the Pope say it, but he also laughed and said, ” “This is the cleverness of that false god.”

it’s an impossible task to evacuate all the humans within a thousand miles of the church in three days. When the false god assigned such a task, he didn’t think of completing it.

Seeing the confusion on everyone’s faces, the Pope’s face revealed the mockery of a wise man toward mortals. He said proudly, ” are you wondering why that God still had to make arrangements even though he couldn’t complete it? this is due to the cunning schemes of the false gods. He’s afraid of the power of our church and is afraid of exposing his trump card when he fights with us. However, after we called him a false god, he had no choice but to take action.

without enough strength and being afraid of being exposed after making a move, the false god put on a big show.

I can tell you clearly that when the time is up, the false god will be furious and blame the so-called saintess. He will say that because he can’t move everyone away in three days, he will be kind enough to give up on God’s punishment. This way, he won’t lose face at all, and he won’t have to reveal his false identity.

The Pope’s analysis left all the bishops dumbfounded. The more they thought about it, the more they felt that the Pope’s words made sense.

“It’s possible.”

I was wondering how to evacuate everyone in three days. So, this is what I was thinking.

a radius of a thousand miles. This almost scared me. If it was only a hundred miles, I might have really been fooled.

that false god wouldn’t dare to say 100 miles. If that evil witch Irene really evacuated all the residents within 100 miles, that false god would be dumbfounded.

“Your holiness is wise.”

With the major issue removed from his mind, the praise of the many bishops made the Pope’s old chrysanthemum-like face reveal a smile.

However, he quickly waved his hand to stop the people below from praising him. He then spoke with a serious expression,”Even though I saw through this plan, we can not underestimate the devil who is pretending to be a God. To be able to come up with such a plan, that devil named Shen must be extremely cunning and full of tricks. When we deal with him in the future, do not underestimate him or think that he is reckless. This is probably a disguise. We’re dealing with a demon who’s good at manipulating people’s minds.”

“We will definitely remember this.”

your holiness, we should be happy. The false god’s actions show that he is definitely not a true God. The gods would never use such a method.

indeed, those who are good at playing tricks are not strong. I have to tell the Kings about this and let them see the true face of the false god.

“I’ll go and contact them now.”

Under the operation of the Bishop, the Kings soon heard the Pope’s explanation. They thought about it for a while and realized that it might really be as the Pope had said.

However, there were also some people who had doubts.

“Is that really a scam?”

it doesn’t look like it. The 30000-meter fireball is not fake. Many of our nobles have taken flying monsters and teleportation gates to the king of retania for treatment, and they were all successful.

but a range of 1000 kilometers is too exaggerated. I agree that it’s a divine punishment of tens of kilometers, but 1000 kilometers is impossible.

……

Discussions and conflict rose in the hearts of the crowd. No matter what they thought, time was passing by and soon, it was time for Lu Chen’s judgment.

This morning, countless people were paying attention to Lu Chen’s movements. They used all kinds of magic to spy on Lu Chen from a distance.

However, they didn’t need to do that anymore. When the time was up, Lu Chen used the mirror of light and projected the scene to everyone in the world.

The art of mirror of light used light to form a mirror, allowing one to view the entire world and also transmit one’s surroundings to a distant place. It was a gold-tier auxiliary ability. Lu Chen didn’t learn it before because he wasn’t interested in this kind of ability. But after he became the Lord of Light, he could use it with just a little understanding.

It was like how not all humans knew how to use the sword, but they could easily stab, stab, cut, and cut. The mirror of light was just a light object to Lu Chen.

At this moment, Lu Chen’s position could be seen wherever the sun shone.

Lu Chen was no longer in the capital of ritania. Instead, he was in the sea.

After using the mirror of light to transmit his own image, Lu Chen knew that he was being watched by everyone.

He didn’t panic at all. Instead, he said indifferently, ” “Those who don’t respect God will be punished by God.”

As soon as he said that, the rebels ‘hearts skipped a beat. But then, Lu Chen’s words made them laugh out loud.

I have ordered that everything within a thousand miles of the headquarters of the Supreme Court be withdrawn within three days, leaving only those who disobey. Then, I will send down the divine punishment of Heavenly Fire to cleanse the filth and warn everyone, but because of the large number of people here, I’m afraid.

Lu Chen continued, but the people from the Supreme Court were no longer listening. Endless cheers came from the headquarters.

“I told you all this wasn’t real.”

liar! He’s a big liar!

your holiness, we are willing to conquer this false god.

Hmph, your plan is not bad, but everything you’re thinking has already been predicted by His Holiness’s wisdom.

……

At this moment, the headquarters of the Supreme Pontiff was like an ocean of joy, overflowing with a joyous atmosphere.

The Kings of the three empires also heaved a sigh of relief and prepared to change their attitude toward the false gods.

However, just as they were rejoicing, they realized that the giant of light was still speaking. At the same time, the 30000-meter-wide sun was also shrinking.

“God loves the world and will not punish the innocent, but the dignity of God can not be insulted.”

As he spoke, the sun became smaller and smaller, but this did not surprise the king and the rebels. Looking at the sun that was becoming brighter and brighter although it was smaller, they felt a great horror.

“No, that won’t happen.”

“They’re all liars. Yes, liars.”

One by one, the humans with rebellious hearts put their hands together and prayed to God that all this was fake.

But there were no true gods in this world. If there were, Lu Chen would be the one closest to becoming a god.

I will give you seven more days. Within these seven days, escape and leave this place. After seven days, the heavenly Fire and lava will cover the Imperial court. This is a warning!

As he spoke, the huge fireball shrank into a small dot under the effect of gravity. The extreme shrinking caused the small dot formed by the huge amount of flames to turn black.

The black stain on the pure white sky was very eye-catching, but no one cared about it at this time. Everyone who looked at the black dot felt their hearts palpitate, as they had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.

The Pope was the most terrified of all of them. He thought of the fact that he could not move the people around the church within three days, and that the false god would say that God loved the people and could not carry out God’s punishment. But he never thought that under the circumstances of not being able to carry out God’s punishment, that person was actually preparing to carry out God’s punishment in a place with no one.

“How is this possible? don’t tell me you really have the power of the divine Phoenix? everything that you’ve said isn’t a lie. It’s true!”

no, I don’t believe such a thing. It’s all fake, a lie.

He was screaming in fear, but no matter how he shouted, something terrifying still happened in the distance.

After a heartbeat, the black dot suddenly burst out after trembling, and endless light poured out from the black dot.

“……”
