Chapter 23 Satan vs. King Crimson
Chapter 23 Satan vs. King Crimson
Chen Miaowen was a little tired.
Not only were the number of screws immeasurable, but the number of zombies under the church was also countless. Wave after wave of them were killed, but there was no sign of them being eliminated.
"Isn't it strange that so many souls are buried beneath this magnificent church? If you were Jesus, what would you think?"
"I would believe that Jesus's teachings must be wrong, and I also hate Jesus, so I believe in his enemy Satan because he is ruthless, cunning, and a completely different kind of legend."
"I want to become that kind of legend."
Chen Miaowen felt that the other party had lost his mind. He had no knowledge of Jesus and Satan, but he knew that this boy, who was only about eleven or twelve years old, was definitely insane. With such powerful abilities, he only wanted to kill those who had seen his double first. He was truly a mad demon.
"Your name is Yedan, and you have a grandfather. Have you forgotten all that? Even Satan wouldn't be so stupid as to forget his own family!"
The number of screws and zombies is still increasing.
"Satan has no family! And I could never have amnesia!"
Chen Miaowen hid behind the Red King, who was throwing punches with all his might. The stunt double's face was contorted with rage, but otherwise he showed no other expression. However, he was indeed exhausted, though it was evident in Chen Miaowen's body.
"I can't go on like this. If I drag this out any longer, I'll be exhausted and might be the first to be nailed to the ground."
He glanced at the locked door, wondering if he should pretend to leave the church, then make Yedan angry and change his mind, so that the zombies might return to the earth.
Then he looked at the child in mid-air. He had taken strict protective measures and was being held in Satan's arms with six wings, with only a small, golden head showing, which was in stark contrast to Satan's own three heads, each with its own distinct color.
"We can't attack him right now. He's very cautious, and this place is too small. We need a more spacious area."
Without hesitation, he deleted two seconds from the timeline and escaped through the half-open church window.
Yedan was stunned for a moment, then ordered Satan to smash through the church door. He was not angry; on the contrary, he felt much more relaxed.
"You did something foolish by running out of the church."
He immediately flew out and then gave the order.
"Disassemble Palermo Cathedral, reassemble it into the shape of Satan, and give it life for my use."
The zombies instantly turned to dust and scattered, and in their place, the church collapsed and crumbled, then gradually coalesced on the ground to form a three-headed, six-winged angel Gundam wielding a holy sword.
"Hey, hey, hey, what is this thing...isn't it a bit too exaggerated?"
While Teresa was hiding in the bushes, trying to figure out any possible way the drunkard could have disappeared, she saw her boss fleeing from the church. The church behind him suddenly collapsed at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and then suddenly rebuilt, becoming a divine entity floating in mid-air.
"I really wanted to help, but boss, what kind of enemy are you facing? And what should I do?"
"Miss, I think I've discovered something..."
……
As soon as Chen Miaowen stepped out of the church, he turned back to prepare for battle. However, the assembled Gundam was clearly beyond his expectations. He was stunned for two seconds when he saw the angel.
But he had his reasons for coming out of the church; it wasn't just to provide space for a counterattack, but also because he had a backup plan.
That is to buy time and use certain traps to render Yedan's Wish Fulfillment useless in one attack, and there will be intervals when Wish Fulfillment is used again, such as the time when his hands are clasped together and his six wings are spread.
After observing for so long, if he wasn't mistaken, that was the prelude to unleashing his ability, a necessary step. So, that moment should be when he attacked.
"Heh, I wonder how you manage to survive under Satan's control."
The giant six-winged angel, about ten meters tall, moved very quickly. In less than two or three seconds, it had already reached the top of Chen Miaowen's head, raised the holy sword, and plunged it downwards.
Buzz—
He barely managed to erase the timeline, dodging the devastating attack.
The angel's sword did not touch Chen Miaowen, but instead pierced the stone-paved ground, causing the world to shake and raising clouds of dust.
He then used the Red King to seize one end of the Angelic Sword.
The angel's body was enormous, yet his movements were not stiff. However, there was a back-and-forth motion when drawing and removing the sword. He would withdraw the holy sword from the ground and wait two or three seconds before he could swing it again.
Chen Miaowen would then have ample time to initiate the epitaph and delete some dates.
"Let me see the future."
On the sea, he observed that he had arrived in front of Yedan, but was blocked by Satan with his six wings, and even his chest was stained with a lot of blood.
Upon closer inspection, he and Yedan were staring at each other, the other's disdainful gaze and his own shocked expression fully revealed... This was the future, detailed to the point of being unparalleled.
"...Am I going to die?"
He activated his power, freezing the world in time. Just then, an angel raised his holy sword, intending to fling him away. So he sat on the sword, frantically trying to come up with a solution.
Am I injured? Or not?
He glanced at the six-winged angel Gundam; its six wings displayed divinity, while its three heads resembled a demon.
Moreover, being neither god nor demon, he was still about ten meters away from Jedam. The only thing he could think of after racking his brains was that he was thrown in front of Jedam by the angel, and the violent impact caused him to be seriously injured and vomit a large amount of blood.
"...Give it a try; the future can still be changed."
He began running along the holy sword. The angel's body was sacred and smooth, without any of the bumps that truly belonged to Gundam, so he quickly arrived on the angel's shoulder blade. At this moment, the time-deletion restriction had arrived.
Whoosh—the angel swung its sword, and in its eyes, Chen Miaowen had vanished without a trace.
"Hey, I'm here!"
Standing on His shoulder, Chen Miaowen acted like a little bird clinging to him, her eyes smiling, as if mocking the angel's foolishness.
Angels are flesh and blood, with feelings and life, and naturally cannot tolerate the provocation of insignificant humans. With a roar that seemed to come from some unknown head, He stretched out His left hand and slapped Chen Miaowen on the shoulder. Chen Miaowen leaped up and flew into the air.
The angel was prepared. He held the holy sword in his right hand and, the instant Chen Miaowen jumped up, swung the sword forcefully, anticipating Chen Miaowen's landing point, and struck the air with the sword.
In mid-air, Chen Miaowen seemed unable to adjust his posture to dodge again. The scene reflected in his pupils showed the Holy Sword getting closer and closer like a cannonball, before striking him with unerring accuracy.
He was sent flying backward once again, just as depicted in the epitaph, crashing into Satan in a comical manner not far away.
He was immediately stopped by the six-winged man, blood gushing from his chest, his face filled with shock.
