Chapter 2318 The Moon People (2)

Upon hearing this, Indra's expression immediately turned ugly.

"The momentous mission of saving all mankind cannot be accomplished without me, Indra! Do you intend to disregard the future of all humanity?"

Rajesh asked, puzzled, "Didn't you say the problem would be solved? So even if you don't do it, someone else will. Why not stay on the ground? It's very safe there. We don't want you to take any risks."

Indra was even angrier, because he knew Rajesh was right.

Future development trends will not change because of human observation.

He can foresee the future, and in fact, he is part of the future.

Cause and effect is not simply a matter of cause preceding effect; the occurrence of cause due to effect is also a kind of causal law.

In other words, no matter what happens next, it will not change the fact that the problem on the moon will be solved by someone in the future.

Indra, of course, could not accept this.

"No, I must go! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to let the whole world know the power of our Bharata!"

"And the might of my Indra!"

The second half of his sentence was his true feeling.

Rajesh approached him with a worried expression and said very respectfully, "But in that case, you must leave Bharata. You cannot borrow the power of faith from our millions of believers, and you may encounter danger."

Indra has been practicing asceticism and has almost stopped caring about what is happening in the outside world.

However, Rajesh and other high-ranking officials have been paying close attention to everything happening outside.

They knew perfectly well that Zhang Yi of the neighboring Huaxu Kingdom now possessed the strength of a Black Bishop and had once displayed his prowess against the Wuluan Empire in the Pacific Ocean.

In Britannia, the third conquest of Atlantis was also successfully completed, and no one knew the extent of the strength of that group of Knights of the Round Table.

Fremont in the North.

When the Ishtar appeared, they showed their base in the Arctic Ocean. The Pantheon believed that there were ancient ruins left by the Ishtar there, so they went to explore it, led by the Goddess of Winter, Morana, and the God of Thunder, Alexei Ivanov.

In the past six months, they have made great progress and their strength has increased significantly.

The Fremonts side made no attempt to conceal this fact; on the contrary, they deliberately publicized it.

Furthermore, after the war against the mechanical civilization, they became the second biggest winner after Zhang Yi, acquiring a large number of mechanical legion remains, and their national strength was growing rapidly.

Compared to them, Indra can only hold onto his homeland within the territory of Bharata, relying on the faith of hundreds of millions of believers in this religious kingdom.

……

Countries around the world have received reports about the huge crack on the lunar surface.

The source of the information remains unknown, but given their tendency to conceal their identities, it is highly likely to be the mysterious underground organization, [Hitomi].

The news spread so widely that it began to cause a huge storm around the world.

If you look up, on a cloudless night, you can clearly see that terrifying gap using only a high-powered optical microscope.

As a result, the whole world was thrown into great chaos.

……

Western Europe, the headquarters of the Holy See in the Byzantine Empire.

Pope Alexander X, dressed in a white and gold brocade robe, sat on the papal throne. He was so old that his skin sagged like chicken skin, and he even had difficulty opening his eyes. His face was covered with age spots that symbolized death.

This nearly 100-year-old man is the most powerful person in the world today, bar none.

He is the spiritual leader of hundreds of millions of devout believers worldwide after the end times. Countless people would willingly die because of a single word he utters.

He was sitting on the throne, with a handsome young man with blond hair standing beside him.

Below the steps, two figures were kneeling respectfully.

Corey Orion, known as the Discipline Father, is one of the War Knights among the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse of the Holy See.

And [Plague Knight], mourning Sister Britney Leibniz.

The two bowed their heads reverently, awaiting His Holiness the Pope's command.

Alexander X’s voice slowly emerged from his throat.

"The changes on the moon have already occurred. This is a sign from God!"

"This is not a bad thing; it's a rare opportunity for us."

At this point, his voice suddenly became more serious.

"However, those traitors seem to want to sabotage things and complicate matters. What do you think we should do?"

The short-tempered priest, with a head of white hair and an ever-present angry expression, raised his head, bared his teeth, and said, "Is there any need to ask? Your Holiness, please allow me to go! I will slaughter those heretics!"

While mourning the nun, the beautiful and charming Leibniz frowned slightly and said, "This incident has become known all over the world. We cannot act rashly, otherwise we may face a backlash."

"Therefore, this operation must be carefully planned."

The Pope rested his chin on his hand, pondered for a long time, his withered eyes darting around before he finally spoke:

"We must go to the moon! This time, I intend to send two of you with me. Take the Book of Revelation with you! If anyone hinders our plans, send them to meet God!"

"Hey! I obey your command, Your Majesty the Pope!"

Corey Orion put one hand on his chest and said excitedly.

Fighting for the Papacy was what he most desired to do.

The nun nodded devoutly.

But at that moment, the blond boy next to the Pope suddenly said, "It seems that the two of them alone are not enough to deal with the powerful superhumans from various countries."

The Pope chuckled. "That's why I sent them on this mission. Successfully completing it requires not only strength, but also wisdom!"

He opened his right hand, and soon a golden holy light appeared before him. In that holy light, the ancient and sacred book, the Book of Revelation with its parchment scroll cover, emerged.

Then the Book of Revelation slowly transformed from one book into two, each floating towards the two people.

The Apocalypse has no physical form.

It is a condensation of faith, embodying the entire Holy See's millennia-old religious heritage.

No one can imagine just how powerful it is.

But only the most devout believers can unleash its true power.

The two devoutly accepted the Book of Revelation with both hands, then took their leave.
