Chapter 1680

What are you guys doing?!

Like an incomparably devout purple-skinned angel, he knelt down cleanly and kowtowed several times, but upon discovering there was no movement behind him, Director Capricorn couldn't help but turn his head and wink at the several "Zodiac Angels" behind him.

What are you standing there for? Kowtow quickly!

These brain-damaged angels were all polluted by Li Ang's purification secret arts. It's likely that the secret arts overlapped, so my purification secret arts can't do anything to them either. We can't beat this many angels.

Also, they recognize Li Ang, but they might not recognize you! Have you forgotten the fate of those two True Gods from a few days ago?

If you are caught by these crazy angels for not being devout enough, you might be treated as heretics with ulterior motives, thrown directly into the Pool of Resurrection to be dunked, and then have your mouths forced open to be fed that so-called Holy Blood.

The problem is, I don't know how that angel purified by Li Ang mutated, but even the Pus of Evil that polluted the entire Heaven Mountain couldn't handle it when it encountered it. Its blood is not something you want to drink!

Don't just stand there! Hurry up! It'll be too late if you don't kowtow!

"..."

Under Director Capricorn's warning glare, the Zodiac Directors remembered the fate of the two True Gods who had been caught earlier, and couldn't help but tremble in unison, then followed Director Capricorn's example and knelt down one after another with a *thud*.

It was likely that they had discovered the anomaly on Heaven Mountain, and a few True Gods had infiltrated Heaven Mountain two days ago, probably wanting to come and check the situation to see what had happened.

It's just that Heaven Mountain is different from the past. They had only just crossed the ridge of the outer ring of Heaven Mountain and entered the outermost periphery of the nine inner rings when they were caught red-handed by the purple-skinned angels who were grabbing angels everywhere to send them for baptism.

And this bunch of brain-damaged purple-skinned angels were truly not picky. Whether they caught a True God or a polluted angel, they were uniformly sent to the peak of Heaven Mountain, dunked in the pool, and fed Holy Blood, providing a standard one-stop service.

Those two unlucky True Gods were first turned into madmen by the Pus of Evil in the pool, and then turned into fools by the so-called Holy Blood. Although they eventually regained their sanity by offsetting the madness and foolishness, their brains were clearly damaged. Now, they are kowtowing at the very front as representatives of devout converts!

Forget it... kowtowing voluntarily is better than being dunked into a fool and then kowtowing.

After figuring out the pros and cons, the Zodiac Directors finally chose to follow the call of their hearts. With bitter eyes, they knelt down one after another, and under Director Capricorn's rhythmic lead, began to kowtow frantically toward the mountain peak with a *clatter*.

It must be said that the Zodiac Directors generally didn't have bad heads, and as the saying goes, a good head is a good head, so a good head should sound good when kowtowing. The crisp and pleasant sound of the directors' heads, combined with their clean and uniform movements, soon attracted the attention of the "Pope."

"Those devout ones over there!"

With fifty pairs of eyes slightly narrowed, locking onto those few purple-skinned angels who were kowtowing particularly smoothly, the hundred-eyed Pope of the Church of Li Ang couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, then extended his bat wings and beckoned toward Director Capricorn.

"Come, come, come! You guys come up!"

"?!!!"

Upon hearing the hundred-eyed Pope's hoarse, quacking voice, the several fake fans couldn't help but tremble in unison.

There are tens of thousands of angels here, why call us specifically? Could it be... we've been exposed?

"You guys are not bad!"

Waving a pair of bat wings to direct the purple-skinned angels to clear a path, the hundred-eyed Pope's fifty pairs of eyes looked kindly at the bewildered directors, and then said with full appreciation:

"I saw your devotion to our Lord clearly from above! Come! You guys come up and speak!"

"..."

This damn... kowtowing too hard is also a problem?!

Instinctively feeling that something was about to go wrong, but facing the warm invitation from the "Pope," the directors had no choice but to stand up slowly and, under the intense gaze of nearly ten thousand angels, walk sluggishly toward the peak of Heaven Mountain.

"Pope!"

Just as the hundred-eyed Pope opened his mouth full of sharp teeth, revealing a kind yet ferocious smile, Director Capricorn, worried that the others wouldn't be able to handle it, immediately stepped forward, grabbed the hundred-eyed Pope's bat wings, and imitating the appearance of the believers he had seen when eradicating cults, said with tears in his eyes:

"We have all only recently been protected by our Lord and managed to break free from the influence of the Pus of Evil. We haven't completely shaken off the pollution, and we are far from being called devout. You are really overestimating us!

Furthermore, as believers of our Lord, there is no need for us to distinguish between ordinary and devout believers. As long as our Lord continues to bestow protection upon you and Heaven Mountain, the glory of our Lord will eventually shine upon everything. Everyone will eventually be a devout believer of our Lord; the difference is merely a matter of time before receiving the blessings."

"Mm... yes, yes, yes! You are not bad! You are very good!"

After hearing the remarks that Director Capricorn had copied from some long-destroyed church, the hundred-eyed Pope's fifty pairs of eyes lit up, then he patted Director Capricorn on the back with his other bat wing and said with full appreciation:

"You are very right. In the future, whether it is Hell, the present world, or Heaven Mountain, they will all be filled with devout believers of our Lord. However, although what you said is a fact, as the Pope personally converted by our Lord, I should bestow upon such an excellent devout believer the reward you deserve... Come!"

After retracting two bat wings, the hundred-eyed angel's two bat wings crossed each other, and the sharp claws at the ends tore each other's flesh, and a large amount of "Holy Blood" immediately flowed out.

"Our Lord is above!"

After looking devoutly toward the general direction of the present world, the hundred-eyed angel extended two blood-dripping bat wings and placed them over Director Capricorn's head. Under the incomparably envious gazes of the purple-skinned angels, it shouted in a hoarse voice:

"At this moment, I bestow upon you the Holy Blood granted by our Lord, to protect you... hm?"

Watching Director Capricorn suddenly reach out and grab his bat wings, interrupting the ceremony of receiving the blood, the hundred-eyed angel's expression couldn't help but sink.

"What are you doing? Do you want to resist my blood-bestowal?"

"No... Pope, I... I am mainly ashamed to accept it!!!"

Really not daring to touch the so-called "Holy Blood" of unknown origin, but not having the confidence to escape from the beating of nearly ten thousand elite angels with a group of Zodiac Directors whose injuries hadn't healed, Director Capricorn had to rack his brains. Under the difficult-to-hold expressions of the Zodiac Directors, he acted with tears in his eyes:

"My Heaven Mountain has been polluted by the Pus of Evil for a long time, and there are so many compatriots who have not yet broken free from the pollution. We are truly heartbroken about this!

Pope! The precious Holy Blood you selflessly bestowed should really not be wasted on us. It should be shared with those who have not yet received the protection of our Lord, so that they can be saved as soon as possible!"

"That's also true..."

After hearing Director Capricorn's words, the hundred-eyed Pope pondered for a while, then retracted his bat wings and sighed with a pained expression:

"Although I have been trying my best to share the protection bestowed by our Lord, the speed at which this Holy Blood condenses is truly limited. Up to now, I haven't been able to share it with all the angels. This is my fault..."

*Phew*... finally managed to fool him...

"Therefore, we should declare war on the Abyss again!"

"???"

No? How did you get your train of thought onto this?!

Under Director Capricorn's bewildered gaze, the hundred-eyed Pope spread his wings and roared with hatred:

"Those damn demons actually dare to worship our noble Lord! They even privately carved statues of our Lord and gave our Lord such an ugly title as the Original Sin Great Demon God. This is an unforgivable blasphemy!

It must be the existence of these heretics that has made our Lord deeply disappointed in our slackness, which is why he refuses to bestow more protection. In order to maintain the supreme glory of our Lord and to let the grace of our Lord spread throughout Heaven Mountain as soon as possible, we must kill our way into the Hundred Prisons of the Abyss and exterminate all those shameful demons!"
