Chapter 1224 Holy Grail Trial
,!
After leaving these words, Moses turned into golden light and disappeared.
But the ancient red granite monument did not disappear with the disappearance of Moses. It still stands on the beach in San Diego.
After a brief silence, the crowd suddenly burst into earth-shattering cheers.
As long as you can complete the trial, you can get the Holy Grail in front of the angel, and then make a wish to God. No matter what the wish is, God can help you fulfill it.
The desire is unprecedentedly expanded, and the emotion called greed is swallowing up everyone's reason like a demon.
No one can refuse a ‘wishes’ that are almost certain to come true.
Just like no one can say no to a jacuzzi.
No one doubted whether what Moses said was true or false.
Because since the arrival of the angels and the many miracles along the way, doubts have long been dispelled.
"Holy Grail! The Holy Grail is mine!"
"Fart, the Holy Grail should be mine, get out of here!"
"Fake, get out of here, or I'll kill you all with one shot!"
"I am an old man, you should let me go first!"
"Go away, I'm still a Christian!"
"Christians, get out of here, the stone tablet belongs to us, the Protestants!"
"Fart, Moses is obviously our Jewish saint, we should be in charge of the stone tablet!"
For a while, the crowd was arguing and rushing towards the stone monument.
The biggest riot took place. Tens of thousands of people crowded on the beach, and many of them even had guns drawn or were ready to take action.
"quiet!"
The loud sound like thunder instantly calmed the rioting crowd.
I saw a woman surrounded by flames, like a sacred phoenix, carrying storm wind and thunder, falling from the sky. She glanced at everyone with her cold eyes and gave an order: "Everyone, immediately retreat fifty meters and keep quiet. !”
Hurrah-!
A strong storm, like a huge pusher, forced the crowd fifty meters away.
After seeing clearly who was coming,
Even the most grumpy black man did not dare to speak provocatively at this moment. The crowd lowered their heads with frightened eyes and closed their mouths tightly for fear of making the man unhappy.
The rioting crowd can wake up instantly, just because that person is... a member of the World's Supreme Council and one of the Five Apostles of the Phoenix, Storm!
Since the defeat of the Avengers, the status of mutants has been greatly improved, and the power of the Five Phoenix Apostles has reached an unprecedented level of expansion. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as covering the sky with one hand.
Anyone who resisted the mutants was basically sent to be cremated.
According to the law of survival of the fittest, those who stayed would naturally be ignorant, and basically everyone kept their mouths shut.
Iron Man and Mr. Fantastic, who were hiding in the crowd, quickly lowered their heads, lowered the brim of their hats, and raised their collars, for fear of being discovered by Storm, otherwise they would have to explain themselves here.
Fortunately, Storm didn't pay attention to them, or in other words, her attention was all on that stone tablet.
"The Ten Commandments of Moses..."
Storm carefully reached out her hand and touched the red granite.
The surface of the rock is very rough, with traces of erosion over the years. It is very old at first glance. It doesn't feel special to the touch. It really looks like an ordinary stone tablet.
After much thought, Storm used the power of the Phoenix to try to leave traces on the surface of the stone tablet.
But immediately she was surprised to find that no matter how much force she used, or even directly bombarded with the power of the Phoenix, there would be no trace left on the surface of this seemingly ordinary stone tablet.
After confirming that the monument could not be destroyed, Storm looked a little ugly and reported through the headset: "Scott, the monument cannot be destroyed."
There was silence for a long time, and then he replied: "Can I move?"
Storm tried it again and found that the weight of the stone tablet was abnormal, as if it was deeply rooted in the beach and could not be dragged at all, so she could only give up the idea: "No, it can't be dragged. The Phoenix Power has no effect on it." use."
"It seems that we can only let it go."
Cyclops, who was sitting in the conference center, sighed, rubbed his eyebrows, and said: "When something like this suddenly appears, I always feel that it is aimed at us, and... the Holy Grail that makes any wish come true, in case the Avengers It would be bad if the Alliance gets it.”
Angel, Holy Grail, Moses, Ten Commandments...
These things that only existed in myths suddenly appeared one after another, and it was hard not to make him feel strange.
And the most important thing is that if it is obtained by the Avengers, it may be an opportunity for the other side to make a comeback.
"Since we can't move or destroy the stone monument, then we just need to prevent people from participating in the trial." Cyclops folded his hands, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, and said coldly: "Ororo, expel everyone, hold on Stone tablet, no one else is allowed to participate in the trial.”
"I'm afraid that won't work, Scott."
Storm saw the rules on the stone tablet, shook her head bitterly, and said, "There are ten rules on the stone tablet, and one of them is clearly written. If you hinder the trial, you will be punished by God."
"rule?"
Cyclops frowned and secretly asked for trouble: "Ororo, transmit the image of the inscription."
Soon, Storm used scanning to transmit all the contents on the inscription to Cyclops.
After reading it, Cyclops frowned even deeper: "It's... full of loopholes!"
Most of the rules engraved on the Ten Commandment Tablets are very vague and do not clearly define the scope.
In the eyes of those who study law, it is probably full of loopholes. But the problem is, after seeing the miracles of angels and Moses, who would dare to gamble with their own heads on the loopholes in the inscription?
"Yeah, the rules are full of loopholes..."
Storm said bitterly: "Perhaps from another level, this is the real rule. Because the implicit boundary and scope are uncertain, no one dares to violate it, otherwise... the result will be divine punishment. .”
"A 'trial' to walk across America?"
Laser Eyes looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "According to the rules of the inscription, after starting from the stone monument in San Diego on the west coast and walking across the United States, the first person to reach the Brooklyn Bridge in New York on the east coast can hold the Holy Grail and make a wish. .”
"Yes, but the trouble is that you must be on foot and cannot use any abilities." Storm gritted her teeth and said: "And you are not allowed to be found to have committed any crime, otherwise you will be deprived of the 'trial' after three times. qualifications."
"The total length is nearly 6,000 kilometers...still on foot."
Even though he is a Phoenix Apostle, Cyclops also feels a little bit tricky from the rules.
"And there are only two requirements for participating in the competition, and that is to be over 1 year old and reach the stone tablet."
Storm couldn't help but feel a headache. Although she still didn't understand the difficulty of the second selection, she had already foreseen that the number of people participating in this trial would be terrifying.
"During the 6,000-kilometer trial, you must pass through nine checkpoints."
Cyclops continued to look down, and couldn't help but feel more headache: "Based on the time to reach the checkpoint, we will confirm the stage ranking. There are nine stages in total. The first arriver in each section will get 1 hour. time bonus.”
“After finally arriving at the Brooklyn Bridge, the total time can be reduced based on the time bonus owned by the trialist.”
"So the one who arrives first in the end may not necessarily get the Holy Grail."
"Only the one with the shortest total time can become the final winner and hold the Holy Grail!"
"Scott...I have a feeling."
Storm stared at the ancient stone monument and whispered: "We... are in big trouble."
