Chapter 1027: Interlude
As a gathering place for the treasures collected by the Sanguang Council over the ages, the Sanguang Treasure House is naturally indispensable for elite treasure house guards, and their identity is even more surprising, because they are not humans, but celestial creatures!
The so-called celestial creatures refer to the aborigines of some large planes, because most of these planes are adjacent to the Lord of the Dawn, the God of Victory and other positive energy gods and gods, and under the influence of the laws of the kingdom of God, these aboriginal creatures are close to the realm of positive energy gods in terms of their own temperament and strength attributes, and the gods are also very willing to recruit a large number of creatures whose temperament is much purer than humans into their own kingdom of God as servants, messengers, etc., so they also have a general name of "celestial creatures". But in fact, there are many types, and there are also great differences in personality, behavior and habits.
Correspondingly, after the Endless Abyss Plane forcibly adhered to the main material plane of the Thanris Continent, some of the indigenous creatures in the adjacent plane were also affected by the law of the Endless Abyss, and irreversible negative energization appeared, they were called demons, which corresponded to the celestial creatures.
Whether it is a celestial creature or an evil demon, they can all be summoned by divine magic and spells, especially celestial creatures, they are all willing to accept the call of human priests with similar values to themselves, and come to the continent of Thanris across the plane, but there are not many priests who have the ability to summon celestial creatures across planes, and it is much more difficult to summon them than to summon elemental creatures.
The strength of celestial creatures is also uneven, there are both powerful races with extremely strong innate talents and can almost be regarded as natural legends, and there are weak beings with weak strength and must rely on other races to shelter, but the talent and combat effectiveness of most celestial creatures are still quite impressive, and the average value is far above that of humans.
The guards of the Sanguang Treasure House who appeared in front of Lin Yang and the others at this moment were mainly humanoid creatures with white wings, both men and women were very handsome, and they looked very similar to the swan people among the orcs, and there were also several tall and burly creatures with human bodies but huge mastiff heads, and the rest were pure beast shapes, but the eyes of these beasts were also shining with wisdom, and they were obviously not irrational beasts.
The kind of humanoid creatures with white wings are the most representative of the celestial creatures, their real name is the winged human race, widely distributed in all upper planes, and even a small amount of distribution in the lower planes, because they are born with positive energy affinity, high wisdom and appearance is also in line with the aesthetics of most creatures, so it is the most favored by the gods of the gods, and most of the work such as issuing oracles and delivering messages to the gods is also done by them, and over time there is a new name "angel", The original name of the Winged Humans is gradually forgotten.
And the kind of celestial creature with a mastiff head and a strong human body is the most heroic and warlike among the celestial creatures, named "Mastiff Head Divine Messenger", both brave and loyal, and once summoned, it will absolutely obey the summoner's orders, as long as the summoner's orders do not violate his purpose, so it is also one of the celestial creatures that the priests like to summon the most.
As for the various Celestial Beasts, there is a big difference in strength between them, there are both powerful legends and weak battle scum, and there are so many types that it is difficult to identify them all unless a specialized expert is a special expert.
The number of celestial creatures in front of them is obviously summoned by the Council of Three Lights to guard the treasure house, and they are all from the plane of the Radiant Trigod Divine Kingdom that is close to the Lord of Dawn, the Twilight Monarch and the Moonlight Goddess, and they are naturally friendly with the believers of the Radiant Trinity, and can perfectly execute orders and endure loneliness, and they are really more suitable than humans to serve as treasure house guards.
Of course, to be able to use arrogant celestial beings to guard the treasure house for themselves in this way, only the three royal families of the Radiant Empire, who are the agents of the Radiant Three Gods and the Mortal Realm, can do it.
Seeing Christina appear in front of the treasure house with Lin Yang, Ouan Rios and Gwenleia, even though these celestial creatures knew Kristina, and respected and feared Euan Rios, they still stepped forward to stop them at the first time, and they were loyal and meticulous.
"Ahead is a forbidden place, please stop!"
A woman wearing silver light armor with winged cakes on her back was just a pair like the other winged people, but two pairs of winged women with four wings holding a flag fluttering at the top, and the flag gun depicting the exquisite pattern of the Lord of the Dawn Holy Emblem flew down in front of the four people, and the flag spear directly stopped them.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, please forgive me for my duties."
The winged woman spoke to Christina with a very beautiful face, but a trace of reverence flashed in the depths of her eyes, and Christina, who was familiar with the temperament of these celestial creatures, was not annoyed, and said: "Your Excellency Archangel Melisandre, we have been authorized by the Council, and this is the seal of authorization. ”
Saying that, Christina showed the special three-light council mark, but even so, the archangel was very serious, and the result mark was carefully examined before letting go of the body and said coldly: "You can go in." ”
In response to the arrogant and serious and rigid habits of celestial creatures, Christina had already foretold Lin Yang before, but seeing Lin Yang in person was still very interested in them, then again, it seems that the Glory Legion she summoned is also a little similar to them in this regard?
As the group walked past the Archangel Melisandre, she suddenly let out a startled sigh, and their eyes were focused on Gwynéa's body.
The reason is very simple, because of the fact that she had just advanced to the legend, Gwyn Leia couldn't control the leakage of her own power at all, and still used the characteristics of the "Psychic Heavenly Clothes" to cover it to a certain extent, but it was only a mask, in the eyes of celestial beings who were extremely sensitive to positive energy, Gwen Leia was simply a humanoid torch burning with a blazing white positive energy flame!
With Melisandre's exclamation, the rest of the strongest celestial creatures also focused their eyes, and then discovered Gwyn Leia's anomaly, and the next moment Gwen Lea was surrounded by this group of celestial creatures.
This sudden change made Lin Yang frown, but he didn't say anything but waited to see the next development of the incident, but a clear smile appeared on Ou'an Ríos's mouth, obviously the old mage had understood everything in an instant.
Didn't he think he was almost overwhelmed by this kind of radiance that was more divine than the light of the Lord of Dawn, but now Gwyn Leia's strength is far greater than before, and the positive energy that flashed out of her body is dozens of times more than that of the year, and these celestial creatures are really blind without noticing.
"Your Excellency, which of your Majesty's saints?"
Melisandre, who was still very arrogant a moment ago, bowed her head to Gwynlea at this moment, and asked with a very respectful expression, she and her companions are from a large plane called "Field of Hope", this plane is greatly affected by the laws of God because of its proximity to the Lord of the Dawn, almost all the creatures in the plane are devout disciples of the Lord of the Dawn, and they think that serving the Lord of the Dawn is the meaning of survival, and Melisandre herself is a divine servant who was chosen to serve the Lord of the Dawn, The legendary rank of Wingman has a unique class, the "Holy Banner Holder", and is also the supreme leader of this group of celestial creatures, if it were not for Shulke, the mortal agent of the Lord of Dawn, and the Pope herself, she would have been summoned to the continent of Thanreth by mortals.
At this moment, in her eyes, the holy fire surging around her was so sacred and splendid, but although the holy fire was too pure to be pure positive energy, it was unfamiliar to her, and the light of the Lord of the Dawn she served looked similar but was very different in nature, and it was a matter of faith, so she couldn't take it seriously.
And to be close to every creature with positive energy, this is also the instinct of celestial creatures, although it seems to be a bit simple-minded, but it is because of this purity that they have always been favored by the gods.
Facing Melisandre's inquiry, Gwyn Leia smiled indifferently and said, "I am Gwen Leia Moormansteen, the captain of the Glory Blade Guard, which belongs to the Glory Castle of the Purple Palace Alliance, and my power does not come from the gods, but from my lord. ”
As she spoke, she saluted Lin Yang, and this action immediately made the surrounding celestial creatures look sideways, and some people shouted, "You actually enslaved the servant of light—"
Most of the celestial creatures have a tendon, simple, persistent and stubborn, their attitude towards life is black and white, and they don't rub sand in their eyes, in their opinion, the blazing Gwenleia must be a believer in a certain god of light, and may even be a saint, but they are loyal to a person from an oriental alien, what is this not enslaved?
At that moment, with the crisp sound of weapons coming out of their sheaths, the various weapons of the celestial creatures were aimed at Lin Yang, and even the tip of the flag spear in Melisandre's hand was pointed at Lin Yang's heart.
"Sinners, don't let go of the apostles of the light for free!"
Melisandre shouted loudly, a bright light shining from her, compared to the legend of the Thanreth continent, she did not have an advantage in strength, but her strength was extremely pure, without half a point of impurities, which was difficult to compare with the legend of the Thanreth continent.
"Stop y'all of you!"
At this time, Christina's voice containing anger and majesty sounded, and I saw that she suddenly thrust the secondary artifact sword "Divine Praise" in her hand into the ground in front of her, and countless rays of light suddenly shone from the sword, instantly passing over all the people present.
"See, the Dawn Divine Power has no reaction to His Highness Lin Yang, this is the embodiment of His Majesty's will of the Lord of Dawn, are you going to disobey Your Majesty's will!"
Christina snorted coldly, both the knowledge of her family and her own bloodline made her very clear about how to deal with these tenacious celestial creatures.
Christina has the bloodline of the Lord of Dawn with a very high concentration that should hardly appear in the mortal world, which makes her extremely high status in the eyes of celestial creatures, especially the celestial creatures who believe in the Lord of Dawn, who openly and secretly treat her as the princess of Dawn, so she immediately and effectively stopped the actions of the celestial creatures, and at the same time saved these simple-minded tendons.
However, her words are not unreasonable, what she emitted is pure Dawn Divine Power, which comes directly from the Dawn bloodline in her body, and even Shulke, whose strength is far superior to her, cannot emit such pure Dawn Divine Power, and this Divine Power Light has no reaction to Lin Yang, not to mention whether it contains the will of the Lord of Dawn, at least it means that Lin Yang does not have any negative energy on his body.
The celestial creatures all stopped, and Melisandre also put down her spear, but still stared at Lin Yang, and said, "I will ask my lord for an oracle, my lord is omniscient and omnipotent, and will not be deceived by any sinner!" ”
That's a fanatic.
Looking at Melisandre's serious and fanatical gaze, Lin Yang felt a little emotionally in his heart, the god believers he had met all the time were either pseudo-believers like Gwenleya, or Christina who obviously inherited the blood of the gods but reneged on his faith to become a mage, and even if his faith was as devout as Shulke, his methods were extremely flexible, and there was no stubbornness of a fanatical believer, but now he finally saw it.
This is also the inevitable result of taking the path of Shinto, the path of Shinto requires faith, incense, and the will of all beings, so the more pious and fanatical the faith of all beings, the better, but this faith will not only completely brainwash believers, but also distort the will of the gods, faith, laws, priesthood, divinity, and divinity...... All of this makes the gods who take the path of Shinto no longer look like their former selves, which is intolerable to the path of immortals who pursue all the great power to return to themselves, so it is normal for Shinto to decline in Yiguang Shenzhou.
The path of Shinto, compared to the path of immortals, which is difficult and life-threatening, seems simple and safe, but it is infinitely harmful to both oneself and believers.
Looking at the celestial creatures around him who had been distorted by their beliefs, Lin Yang suddenly felt a little distracted, he didn't pay attention to Melisandre's warning, and said to Christina: "Time is limited, I don't want to delay here too long, hurry up and enter the treasure house." ”
"Okay."
Christina nodded, then glanced at the celestial creatures with a warning gaze, and said, "Get out of the way!" ”
Melisandre gritted her teeth, and finally raised her flag gun and waved, and the surrounding celestial creatures dispersed despite their unwillingness, they were all natural beings of order and order, and it was their nature to obey orders and obey commands.
A moment later, Lin Yang and his party came to the huge gate of the treasure house engraved with countless runes, the height of this gate was more than ten meters, and it was exuding a very strong light of divine power, dazzling flowers.
And behind them, the celestial creatures still did not give up and followed, and their eyes were staring at Lin Yang, as if they wanted to see some flaws in him.
