The Modern Age Of The Mysterious
/ The Modern Age of the Mysterious Chapter 824
They were marching almost in complete darkness, and the flashlights and lanterns in the hands of the soldiers could not illuminate the darkness that was so thick that it could not be broken away.
To walk in such darkness, what you need to rely on is not your eyes, but the courage in your heart. If it were a group of ordinary soldiers who entered the arched door instead of these mysterious protection brigade soldiers, they would probably just remain motionless in the darkness, or their legs would have been trembling and they would have retreated step by step...
The children are the most scared at the moment. Although Ender and Ella were surrounded by the crowd, they felt as if they had walked into the intestines of a giant beast, and darkness was squirming and squeezing in. They stopped several times out of fear, and it was only Wolfti who carried them forward to maintain their formation.
Soon after, the darkness finally receded, and the group could vaguely see the heavily weathered rocks around them. The long time has even caused the rocks to melt.
Then, they saw a trapezoidal doorway with a faint light appearing in front of them - it seemed that they were finally entering the real maze.
But when they walked out of the trapezoidal doorway, they discovered that the journey into the maze had not yet begun. They found that they had walked into a valley with only barren rocks and wind-sand. The surroundings were surrounded by smoke and dust, making it difficult to see clearly. They could only see clear and familiar constellations through the gaps occasionally exposed by the thin clouds in the sky. They continued to move forward, and soon they were stopped by a huge creation that was impossible to complete with human power...
It was a stone door with two leaves embedded in the gap in the mountain. The door is in the shape of two pairs of huge wings pointing upward and downward. Symbolic eyes were evenly engraved on the wings, and the eroded and blurred Hebrew text hung down from the mountain along the feathers.
"The Cherubim Gate..." The colonel stopped in front of the stone gate that was as high as the mountain. His expression was extremely solemn.
The existence of the Holy Grail has created a "sacred realm" in this underground space, and even over time, its power does not seem to have been lost too much. Such a scene means that they may encounter high-level angels here. Only then did Weissall realize that in front of a maze of this size, the power of exploration he carried could only be said to be adequate.
The team of nine stood in front of the Cherubim Gate, like insignificant ants.
The situation was indeed not as optimistic as imagined. The ridiculous drunken knight was not the real guardian. Halli Yumira, who was standing next to the colonel, was thinking...
"Anyone who sets foot in this place and prays for divine favor will eventually drink from his cup of bitterness."
A bitter cup?
Weisthal frowned and did not read the Hebrew motto on the door - he did not want to torture the minds of his soldiers any further.
No matter what challenges and difficulties lie ahead, for the sake of the Führer and the Empire, they must bring the Holy Grail back.
Shocked by the majestic Cherubim Gate, the colonel calmed down. He had put all his chips on this gamble. What's more, eight of the SS soldiers injected into the maze were carrying "Holy Spear Shattered Blades" of different weights.
If we want to say who is responsible for bringing the Holy Grail back to the light of day, looking at it for thousands of years, it can only be him today!
With this in mind, Colonel Weissall instructed the team to move forward, and the group stepped into the Cherubim Gate...
"Everyone has gone in?" Alicia Pompeo asked softly in the woods outside the monastery.
Finnick Adelir, one of the people Alicia brought, was looking around the scene in the monastery through Joshua's eyes.
"Weissall and Maurice both went in with their men. There are three ordinary soldiers and two Jack-level targets guarding the chapel. I can't see the situation outside..."
"Very good." Alicia said, "Weissall must have sensed something. He poured almost all his exploration power into the maze."
Alicia knew that if the top commander of the protection brigade restrained himself because he was afraid of danger and only dared to send a small force into the maze to search, then he would never reach the Holy Grail.
Finnick looked away, and his face was no longer as slightly painful as Joshua's on the diamond frame. He **** his long hair and had a modest, gentle and handsome face. Anyone who saw him would feel good about him at first sight. However, due to his special status, he often uses a hood to cover his face in daily life.
Once while walking on the streets of Vienna, an old woman wearing a headscarf followed Finnick and even grabbed his clothes. She insisted that she saw the living Joshua, and begged Finnick to use the power of God to solve her troubles... In his own life, Finnick had encountered such a situation more than once. When people saw his face, they always said he was the second coming of Joshua.
But when he revealed the dark red birthmark on his body to the misidentified person and clearly stated that he could not perform miracles, people would let go of their hands in a daze. Even though the misunderstanding was resolved, Finnick still had to bear the disappointed expressions of those people. After this happened again and again, he often concealed his face.
As for whether he is the second coming of Joshua, he actually had doubts a long time ago. In his boyhood, clergy from the European Holy See came to him based on rumors from the countryside. But after various tests and the discovery of the huge red birthmark on his body, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com ultimately did not regard him as the Holy Son.
Things changed when he became an adult. Finnick experienced strange dreams several times and mastered some wonderful magical skills without any teachers. At that time, Finnick already knew that the so-called "Holy Son" name would only bring him trouble, so he concealed these visions until the theologians of the Daedalus Foundation accidentally discovered him. In order to keep it secret, he Joined this organization.
In order to protect the possible "holy blood", Daedalus has concealed the various abnormalities in Finnick Adelir. The Foundation rarely assigns tasks to this "distinguished person". However, thanks to the recovery of Finnick and the Life Weaving Technology, the Daedalus Foundation successfully developed several "Holy Child Sanctuaries" specifically designed to suppress angels.
During the Ocean City incident that year, all Santo Ni Sanctuaries were destroyed by the deaths of the Angel Hunters. Later, President Alicia also stopped allowing the foundation to create such bizarre things on the grounds that there were ethical issues with the "one-year baby."
At this moment, Finnick was filled with sadness and anger. They had been hiding in the distance and witnessed the scene where the SS officer killed the old priest. Finnick has a good impression of anyone who is a devout believer, and the slain guardian seemed to him like a brother. At this moment, he had to spend a lot of energy to calm down the sadness and anger in his heart.
"With the big guy, how do we get in?" The questioner was a black man wearing a brown jacket, the theologian, Irano. He pointed at a huge thing in the bushes behind him. It looked like an old jeep parked in the woods.
That's an "Angel". It is an iron giant unearthed from ancient ruins by the Foundation, a sacred relic from a glorious era.
