Omnic Crisis in Super God's Beginning

Chapter 5 Angel’s Wrath

"The holy angels were angry three times, the first time when the devil came into the world..."

"The second time was when mortals stole the thunder authority that belonged to angels..."

"The third time was when the countries did not listen to the advice and insisted on developing world-destroying weapons..."

"Now there will be a fourth wrath of the holy angels!"

The pope's wrinkled palms clenched tightly, his eyes full of helplessness, mixed with a trace of nameless anger.

He was extremely angry at the rude behavior of Gray Goo Company.

But he couldn't come up with an effective way to sanction Gray Goo Company, because Gray Goo Company is a large technology company, and its source of funds is not affected by the church at all. They can't use the church's capital to suppress the other party.

The Church of Angels has been standing on El Star for thousands of years, and the wealth they control is naturally unparalleled. Many capital companies on the six continents have connections and interests with them, especially those continents where angel belief is widely spread.

This is the fundamental reason why the Church of Angels can still interfere in the internal affairs of other countries even if it no longer controls secular power on the Ael Star.

But among the six continents on Aiur, only the Seris Kingdom in the Southern Continent is the most unfaithful to the Church of Angels, and the Gray Goo Company's industry and foundation are all established on the Southern Continent.

Therefore, the Angel Church wants to sanction the Gray Goo Company, but they can only do nothing.

Hearing the Pope's sigh, Karina couldn't help but show enthusiasm and said:
"His Majesty the Pope, can you pray to the Holy Heaven through that altar and ask the great angel to come to this world again!"

"There are too many ignorant people in the world today. They have forgotten the justice and stability that angels once brought, and they blindly pursue the so-called strength and development, but they have never seen the many consequences caused by seeking strength and development. Depravity and ugliness, they should all be judged and purified by the flames of angels!"

Kalina's suggestion made the Pope think deeply for a while. He shook his head helplessly again, looking far away and said:
"Since the fire 500 years ago, the sanctity of the altar was defiled, and angels rarely answer the prayers of us believers..."

"But now, all we can do is probably pray to the angels, hoping that the angels can hear our voices this time."

With that said, the Pope took Karina through the church and went to the altar they mentioned.

It was an altar with a very ancient atmosphere, with many primitive and barbaric era styles, and there were some modern facilities around it to maintain the surrounding area.

When the Pope and Kalina arrived at the altar, there was a little awe in their eyes.

The history of this altar is 2000 years old. It is closely related to the fate of the Angel Church. It has a special name - the Altar of God's Descendance.

This altar was left behind 3000 years ago when the holy angels first came to the western continent of this planet to give their ancestors guidance for civilization.

But it is a pity that the angel who first came to this planet only stayed on the Aiur planet briefly. After some primitive tribes on the Western Continent regarded angels as objects of faith, they were in a hurry because of some things. left.

According to the records of the ancestors of the Church of Angels, the reason why the angel left was because in the outer world, the holy heaven where angels lived was invaded by a group of evil beings called demons.

That angel was urgently summoned back by the King of Angels and participated in the war against the demons. Since then, there has been no news.

That angel has never returned to El Star since then, and only the altar she left behind still remains on the Western Continent.

Later, after time changes, the civilization on the Western continent entered the feudal era, and those primitive tribes that believed in angels gradually developed and grew, established city-states, created kingdoms, and formed the Angel Church.

Later generations followed the legends of their ancestors and consecrated this altar of divine descent, which commemorated the first moment of the angel's arrival, as a holy place, and frequently prayed to the angel for some religious reasons.

Once, the prayers sent by the later people through the altar were answered. An angel with the power of thunder responded to the prayer and came to El Star, and solved a natural disaster for the people at that time.

The appearance of angels greatly shocked the civilized people at that time, and the belief in angels that lasted for thousands of years entered a period of fanaticism.

Slowly, the Angelic Church relied on this fanaticism to expand the church's influence to the entire Western Continent.And after the thunder angel appeared, the Church of Angels regarded the natural phenomena of thunder and lightning as the divine power of angels, worshiping and pursuing them.

It was also after that that the Angelic Church prayed to angels more frequently through the God's Altar, hoping to continue to gain favor from angels in this way.

Sometimes it’s really just useless prayers.

But more often than not, the Angel Church passes on complex problems that arise within some civilizations to angels through prayer, hoping to find solutions.

Obviously, angels seem to be happy to help the civilization on Aiur in this regard, so whenever the development of civilization encounters setbacks and internal problems, the Angel Church can get solutions from angels.

Because of this, the influence of the Church of Angels has grown stronger, and their power has become more and more entrenched in the Western Continent.

Over time, the civilization of the Western continent developed rapidly and soon moved towards the Age of Discovery. They gradually discovered other continents on the planet and began to colonize and expand those discovered continents.

Civilizations change and human footprints change.

More than 2000 years after the arrival of the angels, the first steam engine appeared on the planet Aiur, and the era of industrialization began.

At that time, there were countless races and countries on the six continents, and countless wars were born as a result. The wave of the Age of Discovery was still continuing, and disputes and contradictions between the colonizers and the colonized were occurring all the time.

The church, baptized by angelic faith, played the role of colonizer and savior in that era.

They take the initiative to preach the righteous faith of angels to the world, hoping to redeem countless suffering people, but at the same time they are greedy and crazily collecting wealth from the entire world to build churches and expand their faith.

Since the Church of Angels holds the right to interpret angelic beliefs and relies on the divine power of angels, all the countries at that time dared not speak out against the actions of the Angelic Church.

Several hundred years later, with the continuous advancement of science and technology, scholars on Aier invented electricity and built the first power plant, and civilization entered the electric steam era.

As a result, social productivity has been further improved, the education system has been optimized, cultural ideas have been popularized and opened up, and emerging thinkers have begun to become extremely dissatisfied with the conservative Angel Church.

Some people have questioned the authenticity of angels, because angels have not appeared in the eyes of the world for hundreds of years. 500 years is enough to change many things, including belief in angels.

But the Church of Angels at that time did not take it seriously. They also persecuted the scholars who invented electricity and organized believers to smash power plants on the grounds that thunder and lightning were the authority of holy angels and that mortals should not interfere with them.

They intended to prevent the development of social productivity at that time, and even more intended to prevent people's ideological enlightenment and progress.

Because they believe that these things have affected the world's belief in angels, then these things will naturally be destroyed.

This absurd act also triggered a series of social problems and backlash, causing people at that time to attack the authority of the church and angels.

It was 500 years ago that a group of radical anti-church people rushed into the Holy Land, set a fire on the altar of God's descent, and let it burn for seven days and seven nights, burning the entire altar to almost nothing. White ground.

For the first time, the authority of the church and angels in this world was shaken.

For the Angel Church, the fire was like an earthquake, shaking the faith of countless believers. Even many church insiders questioned the authenticity of angels after the fire.

In order to quell the incoming doubts both internally and externally, the Church of Angels was forced to publicly pray to the angels on the altar of divine descent, just like its predecessors did, hoping that the angels would come, or respond to them, and help them quell the crisis. There was turmoil.

Unfortunately, no angel came to the prayer that time, and the church staff did not receive any angelic response.

The authenticity of angels was further questioned, and the authority and influence of the church were further weakened.

Since then, the church's ideological control and restraint on various countries has been gradually broken, and the development of civilization on El Star has ushered in a new era.
