Chapter 904 Lucifer's Wings
"This is……"

Aiwass turned around and stared at the wings in a daze.

——He got similar wings from the last promotion ceremony!

At that time, his mind was controlled by Huan Tiansi's pastoral method, and he was transformed into a merciless angel of destruction.

It was Aleister's self-sacrifice that brought him back to his senses.

He tore off the four white wings formed by Huan Tiansi's "snake power", but grew six larger wings.

Red, blue, yellow, green, white, black.

Among them, the red, black, and green wings are larger than the others - this obviously corresponds to the three beasts of sin that he has unlocked.

——How similar does it look to now?

Even the size of the wings was almost the same... except that the wings given by Lucifer were inlaid with brilliant golden wing guards at the wing roots and the outside of the bones, and there were also carefully carved jewels on them. And at that time, Aiwas's wings felt a little unreal, but now they have become more real.

Those wings obviously did not belong to Lucifer.

Rather, they were the wings of the Fallen Angels—or rather, the illusory wings that appeared from the profession of the “Sinner Scholar”, which was formed by the power of the Fallen Angels.

Does this mean that... when the black wings of the Fallen Angel are cleansed, their essence is actually the same as Lucifer's?

Aiwass remembered that the Fallen Angel in the game descended with black wings on his back.

But Aiwass didn't have much time to think.

Thanks to the experience in the promotion ceremony, Aiwass had already mastered the ability to fly.

After he "regained" his wings, he immediately learned how to use them - this time he really "remembered" the memory.

He grabbed Galatea from behind and flew up!

Galatea's body was unusually heavy—so heavy that Aiwass was startled when he touched her. Her light and silent steps did not give the impression that she was as heavy as an adamantine golem.

Aiwass originally wanted to just hold her upright, which shouldn't be a problem. But Galatea's unimaginable weight forced Aiwass to give her enough respect - this weight couldn't be carried like a princess, because the wings could bear it... but Aiwass' arms couldn't.

Because of the wings on her back, Aiwas couldn't carry her on his back, so he could only hold Galatea's waist tightly with both hands. He flapped his wings fiercely like a crane, hanging her horizontally at low altitude. This made Galatea's body almost folded like a sheet waiting to be hung.

If it were a real person, they would probably feel the stretching of their spine and the congestion of blood in their brain. But fortunately, Galatea is actually a construct doll, she has no opinion about it, and may not even have any feelings... probably.

Her head slapped against her knees in the air like a scallop, making a crisp sound similar to the collision of pebbles, but her delicate face was expressionless. Occasionally, she couldn't dodge in time, and the back of her head suddenly hit something, which would be directly smashed.

Following Galatea's "automatic guidance", Aiwass easily found where everyone was.

Their location was extremely conspicuous in this eternal darkness - they were staying in the amber light shield condensed by Master Chongbo.

The light shield was glowing, so Aiwass could see it from a distance.

Aiwass even saw that his own "illusion" was still there comforting others - and other people could actually hear it!
When he passed through the thin film of the amber barrier, Aiwass finally understood... this place was like an "amber", isolating the inside and the outside.

The roar caused by the space rupture was reduced to the noise of "renovation upstairs" when it reached inside.

Aiwass put Galatea down first, and after she tidied up her messy hair, he stood in the position of his illusion and continued what the illusion said.

Only Chongbo seemed to have noticed something, and glanced over when the amber barrier was touched. But the old man didn't say anything, just nodded, indicating that the things had been taken.

"…So, don't worry too much. We will never be sucked into the void, nor will we enter the dream world, because we are not entering from the dream world, but from the material world."

Aiwass said calmly.

Archmage Zhengsine was quite looking forward to it: "Will it lead us to the space where you fell before?"

He was referring to the space where Aiwass obtained the "Icosahedron of Water".

However, the contents of that copy have been cleared out by Aiwass, so they are indeed of no value anymore.

"probably not."

Aiwass shook his head slightly. "If you are interested in that place, you can come back anytime. That space is not affected by the preservation spell, but is solidified by the power of the 'Water Icosahedron'. When you complete our transaction and get what I want, you can take it into the ruins... Or you have another way, which is to directly destroy the spell structure and dig it out from the outside.

"That place is not like here... It doesn't have such a strong preservation spell, and it's not indestructible. Only the power of the fifth-level spell is enough to blow it up. But if that happens, it will attract someone or cause damage to the things inside, I don't know." What he meant was "You'd better complete the transaction with me honestly."

And Sine also caught Aiwas's intention and nodded obediently.

Rurouni couldn't help but complain: "This wave of archaeology is really outrageous. I thought it might be dangerous, but I didn't expect it to be this dangerous... I won't come again next time."

The kitten was also weak all over, squatting on the ground: "When I go back, I should find someone to marry... I feel like if I take risks again, I don't know when I will die outside."

"Yeah," Baike wiped his sweat and muttered, "Ancient golems, demon tides, eternal night, and time-space ruptures... And what just happened... Is that the death of the second sun?"

His voice was extremely complex, full of emotion and sadness. He was the only one besides Professor Budd who was still immersed in the truth of history.

They also obviously witnessed from afar the miracle that Lucifer showed to Aiwass - that was preserved by him, he was torn out, and after the birth of the twin angels, Fallen Angel and Ring Angel, the "Death of the Second Sun" achieved by Wei Zhe and Sha Shiji.

As a Horusian, he has a very strong faith in the sun.

Therefore, this scene brought him a very strong shock - witnessing with his own eyes the death of the sun he worshipped in front of him. But from another perspective, he also obtained mysterious knowledge that other Horus people and other dream monks could not obtain: how did the second sun die?

The information he brings back will completely change the entire Horus!
——That will also be one of the variables!

"That azure sun... could it be Mithra?"

Baike murmured softly and looked at Aiwass.

Obviously, in his understanding, the only one who can answer his questions is the Eternal Pope.

According to Horus's deduction and calculation, after the death of the second sun and before the birth of the third sun, there should be a sun god in the world who "should have been born but was not born". That fictional sun god was called Mithra - this is the core doctrine of Horus' Mithraism.

And now... Baike may be the only Horus in the world who has witnessed the light of "Mithra" with his own eyes.

"Yes."

Aiwass nodded: "The death of the Second Sun is not the death of Taurus - the Second Sun died at the 'Birth of the Twins'."

Whether it is Wei Zhe and Zhigao Tian, ​​or Huan Tian Si and Fallen Angels...they are all stories that take place in the "Gemini Age".

Even the first time Huan Tiansi cut off his tail and split into another self should have happened after he became Huan Tiansi - that is, the story began in the Gemini era.

“Whether it’s Aries or Taurus, they are the same. They all belong to the long lightless night. And the birth of Mithras may come from the consensus among the pillar gods—that the world needs a sun.”

Mithra himself hints at the birth of the Path of Love, which is still entangled with the Path of the Beast.

Creating a fictional god is in line with the path of beauty.

The light shines upon the earth, in keeping with the path of dedication.

According to the truth revealed by the death of the Second Sun, the corpse of the Second Sun originally belonged to Wei Zhe and Sha Shiji - they used the power of the Second Sun to transform it into the Curtain of Balance.

At the same time, the new, gentler sun brings vitality, which is in line with the way of adaptation; preserving the deeds of the dead celestial beings is a principle from the path of dusk.

"Mithraism is a secret religion that was born from the power of the nine great ways, 'the memory of one, the promise of three, and the words of five'. Now it seems that the one who vetoed the birth of Mithra... should be the Supreme Heaven."

Aiwass said so.

The world outside is still breaking apart.

But at this moment, the amber shield was suddenly hit hard -

Even the wanderer did not realize the crisis in advance.

A strong sense of hatred, despair and murderous intent had turned into a tangible black impact, causing the shield to vibrate violently!

"snake--"

It was a disembodied sound, hollow as an echo.

The hostile roar and growl sounded from the void: "How dare you appear in front of me!"
