Not A God

Chapter 98

None of my wishes in this life could be fulfilled, even this last one of giving my life for the sake of God is going to be in vain.

...... I wish I could be Your devotee again in my next life ......

The world before Stiletto's eyes began to reshape as if he saw an image of the Pope's hand-carved deity that he had seen long ago during worship, a handsome face of the ancient god who was not sad or happy, his eyes half-closed with compassion for the world.

To see such a sacred statue at the end of his life was a blessing for Stiletto. He slowly closed his eyes, but before he fell into the darkness he could vaguely see his companion, who had been so indifferent to his death, approaching him, his indifferent and emotionless eyes half-closed, surprisingly similar to the statue of the god he remembered.

The resemblance was so strong that he felt the urge to get up now and kneel down and pray, but his dying body was unable to do so, and he could only tremble his fingers and close his eyes. Zen looked at the NPC who had only one breath left and fed him a bottle of the system's complimentary first aid potion before dragging the NPC's feet and moving on.

As long as the NPC didn't die, his mission wasn't a failure!

Instead, Zen felt that it was good that the NPC didn't talk so much anymore, so he didn't have to purposely block out information. With the NPC's body out of breath, Zen put together a few more puzzles, and this time he was quite fast as he had referred to the tips in the system guide. After ten minutes, he finally reached his final destination, the central altar of the underground maze.

The central altar was located in the central palace deep inside the underground maze. The palace was surrounded by tall pillars, which defied the laws of physics and stood straight up in the underground space, their tops swallowed up in the darkness where the light overhead could not shine, as if they were going straight up into the clouds, giving the ancient altar a long, long visual impact.

At this moment, the area around the altar is filled with devotees dressed in black robes. They were kneeling on the ground and praying, their voices echoing in unison in the empty palace. The church, however, carried an inexplicable sense of sacredness and inviolability.

"Only the greatness of God in the long river of destiny does not fade away, the stars are lit, all things live with you, when the stars shine, God, will return ......"

Zen observed for a while before getting bored with this same old ritual scene.

Retracting his gaze, he pressed the positioning spell on the cross at his neck, as reminded by the system. According to the plot, his chance would come when Lederer met up with his mortal enemy Kaye.

Boom - !!!

After pressing the crucifix's pattern, a bright beam of light shot up into the sky and Zen became the most conspicuous person in the underground palace in an instant.

Zen: "......"

Good lord, this is Lederer's infiltration plan?

Looking at the black-robed believers pouncing around him, Zen thought for a moment and felt that he was mostly sold out by Lederer. Zen manned the handle and began a chase, he must not be caught before Lederer's side arrived, otherwise he would be considered a mission failure.

On the other side, Lederer, who was in the sealing organisation, looked up at the bright light outside the window, his eyes narrowed slightly, and disappeared into the room. The moment had finally arrived, and heaven was about to truly descend. The world, which had become more and more polluted over the centuries, was about to become beautiful under the light of heaven.
