"Boom!" A roaring sound echoed in their ears!
Lucifer's shout seed to summon sothing extraordinary—a blinding fla suddenly ignited right on the spot!
Directly in front of the cross, white flas appeared out of thin air and began burning.
Witnessing this scene, Lucifer extinguished the black hellfire at his fingertips and stood waiting for the flas to dissipate.
Soon, the flas burned out completely, yet nothing appeared.
However, Angus suddenly understood sothing. He stepped forward and extended his cross.
As the cross erged, a special glowing cross suddenly shimred in the previously empty space, resonating with Angus's cross.
A gentle yet solemn voice echoed throughout the entire space, "Lucifer, you have broken the rules by coming to the mortal world!"
"No rules broken here—I ca following a contract!" Lucifer said with a smile. "Don't speak to like that. Find a vessel in this place first—surely you can manage that?"
He pointed at Angus, "He's definitely not suitable, as you know! So, in this church, is there any body you can possess?"
Hearing these words, though no figure appeared within the glowing cross, it seed as if a gaze erged. This gaze swept across everyone present.
"Everyone here is a sinner, all evil—can you find a vessel of goodness?" The words were teasing, but those who heard them felt only malicious chill!
"I can!" As soon as the words fell, the gaze identified its choice and shot out a beam of light.
Caroline Olson, who had been hiding and watching secretly from the back, was now guided and drawn forward by this light!
The nun had been here all along, but no one had noticed her until now when she erged.
She slowly walked to the front and, under everyone's watchful eyes, touched the cross.
Then, she beca enveloped in light—the radiant glow making everyone present squint.
This brilliance persisted for so ti. Everyone watched, observing the scene without anyone speaking.
anwhile, behind the caras, her information was delivered to Governor Newland within minutes.
"The Olson family's daughter?" Seeing this note, Newland suddenly thought of sothing, a mocking smile appearing on his face. "Then I'm already looking forward to that old fool Olson's reaction when he finds out about this!"
Being chosen by an angel ant this nun's life would be completely different from now on!
"Hiss..." A sound like a hot bread knife lting butter erged. The light caused Lucifer's body to emit billowing black smoke at this mont.
Then, this young woman who had been a nun opened her eyes under everyone's gaze!
"Hum!" The mont those eyes opened, everyone felt their hearts stop!
What kind of eyes were these!
Completely pupil-less, devoid of any focus—just pure white eyes indifferently scanning everyone!
She also saw the caras and seed to perceive the people behind them.
Standing there, contrasted with the bishop's pitch-black eyes beside her, it was like the ultimate confrontation between angel and demon—one black, one white; one righteous, one evil.
Now, everyone knew she had been possessed by an angel!
At this mont, the nun turned toward the bishop, "You are defiling the Lord's sanctuary, Lucifer!"
"After all these years, haven't I defiled plenty? Why don't you co arrest then, Gabriel?" Lucifer said casually, also revealing the identity of the being before them.
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
Gabriel? That Left Hand of God? The Angel of Punishnt? The Archangel?
What kind of day was this? First Lucifer, now Gabriel—these mythical beings were arriving simultaneously?
Gabriel remained silent. If Lucifer were truly so easy to capture, he wouldn't have remained in hell for so long.
As long as he didn't appear in his true form in the mortal world, even the Lord couldn't capture him. "Then have you co to the mortal world to experience the Heavenly Sword?" Gabriel said.
"Angel of Judgnt and Condemnation, Seraph Gabriel—today I want you to kill soone!" Lucifer said cheerfully. "Help this woman fulfill her contract!"
Angus suddenly looked up—was Lucifer insane? He said he couldn't kill anyone, then asked Gabriel to kill? And so arrogantly? Making an angel fulfill his demonic contract?
Everyone also thought Lucifer must have gone mad, uttering such words to provoke Gabriel. Given Gabriel's temperant in mythology, wouldn't he imdiately fight back?
But they didn't hear Gabriel's rebuttal. This archangel possessing the young woman actually fell into rare silence.
She gazed at the bishop's face, information seeming to flow through her eyes as if searching for sothing...
Soon, an expression of fury filled her face, terrible resentnt empowering her eyes!
In those eyes, everyone could see her rage!
"This church contains no trace of light! The horrific cris you have committed make even angels wail!"
"As servants of the Lord, you have betrayed His will—this is blasphemy against the Lord of Hosts!"
"I, Gabriel, pronounce judgnt here!"
"All who are guilty shall be purged; all who harbor desire shall descend to hell; all without faith shall be burned by the flas of punishnt, consuming their bodies and scorching their souls!"
Then, indifferent words rang out, accompanied by the church bells and immortal hymns:
"The trumpet that once announced salvation in the Virgin's ear,
Today becos the sword piercing the hearts of hypocrites!
You have woven olive branches into crowns of thorns,
Transford the monstrance into weights for profit;
Laid velvet couches in confessionals,
Yet used scriptures to whip the backs of orphans and widows."
Hearing these words, many clergy showed fearful expressions and tried to leave, but when they stepped forward, a bloody cross blocked their path, rendering them immobile.
The hymn of judgnt softly echoed throughout the church:
"Those who wear purple robes yet allow wolves to devour lambs!"
Then, a scene appeared before her eyes, before all observers:
Ken Burke grabbing a young girl's arm—a bruised, already dead body—stuffing her into a ter-long box, then throwing it before her parents...
The parents instantly went mad, but prevented by surrounding priests from advancing, could only scream in rage!
"Those who turn the sacrant of confession into brothel thresholds!"
The church priest stripped a young boy's clothes, then happily sent him into the small confessional, allowing two parishioners to pay and enter.
Soon, the boy's hoarse screams echoed from inside!
"Those who weave webs of lust in monasteries!"
Monks brought people into the church, performing lewd and rebellious acts beneath the cross in the chapel.
And the next mont, monks and nuns engaged in unethical acts during midnight in the church under the night sky!
"In the na of the Holy Father, I exercise the power of judgnt!"
Finally, Gabriel completed his judgnt within the hymns:
"Now, the seventh seal is broken,
Flint and fire shall burn three abominations:
The collection bag stained with blood, the gem-encrusted pulpit,
And the bronze staff engraved with 'Peace be with you'!"
In her hand, a mysterious crystal shimred with a cross of light:
"In the na of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit!
The echo of Ezekiel resounds here:
'I will hold the shepherds accountable for my sheep!'
All who concealed child abuse in council etings shall be first to receive scorpion whips in the final judgnt!
All who caused the little faithful to stumble shall be trampled by angels!
Those who thrice violated vows of chastity shall forever lose the na of Morning Star!"
"I, Gabriel, executor of judgnt, condemn you for subversion, defilent, and arrogance!"
An ethereal longsword descended from the sky, judgnt flas burning from the void.
Every clergy mber present saw pure white holy flas igniting upon their bodies!
Judgnt had begun!
