Chapter 164 Another one to take the blame
His face and skin melted quickly, and his brain and internal organs were burned to ash by the high temperature.
The scattered bones mixed with the "viscous" magma could barely keep him in human form, but he looked very miserable and had no image at all!
Standing alone in a metal escape tunnel filled with crimson liquid, the Lazy Demon King was so angry that he was shaking all over and gritting his teeth.
"Damn you Pietro!"
He immediately started to curse, "You can be so proud now, I will kill you sooner or later!!"
Although there was no evidence, he had personally checked someone's location not long ago and knew what kind of environment it was in.
So, it is obvious who caused this sudden disaster.
Greedy devil!
He was shocked by this, and more than that, he was mad!
Although he had given up the idea of seizing power by creating an incident of arrogance, the identity of the Pope was still useful to him.
Very useful! This identity allows him to effortlessly create some religious laws that may cause chaos, allowing him to more easily develop power in the human world and to obtain a lot of secret information and intelligence.
And so on and so forth, there are so many things that can be done.
But now, all of this has gone to waste! There are no witnesses around, so he can actually repair this body and continue pretending nothing happened.
But this kind of repair is slightly different from the body's original condition.
Others may not notice it, but if the archangel sees it, there is a high chance that he will be suspected! Even if he is not suspected, facing the naked provocation of the devil, facing the heavy losses of the church, and the public opinion that is bound to be in uproar.
Is it possible that the Archangel Adanelle, who has already descended, will remain indifferent and outside the church system?
Impossible! She would most likely bypass this "Pope" and order the people of the Star Council to take over religious affairs, or even take action herself! By then, even if he was still the Pope, he would no longer have the opportunity to use this identity to control the church and secretly interfere in some matters.
Because he will be sidelined! It can be said that this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was destroyed just like that.
The one who caused the trouble was none other than the greed that had seized the power of arrogance...
How could Lazy not be angry after being "bullied" repeatedly? But this emotion did not last long, as it was interrupted by an accident.
Accidents come from the sky.
Lazy had already sensed the presence of Archangel Trafford before.
But Trafford was busy with "disaster relief" at the time, and Lazy, who had a strong ability to hide, did not think that the other party could discover him.
However, now, the other party didn't know what was going on. After being in a daze for a moment, he suddenly split into two! One part rushed towards the space crack where the lava was splashing, and disappeared into the depths of the crack.
The other part suddenly appeared not far from him! "Sinister and despicable hell maggots!"
There was a majestic figure with the outline of wings appearing and disappearing behind him, and his tone was full of anger at this moment.
"You have brought about such a disaster, you deserve to die!"
...What the hell? Lazy, who was about to run away, was confused when he heard this.
I brought disaster upon myself! ?
…
Among the seven devils of hell, Sloth is particularly good at disguise and hiding.
So under normal circumstances, the Archangel would not be aware of the existence of the Demon King of Laziness.
But when the influence of certain beliefs spread, the God in heaven, who was far more powerful than the archangel, was awakened instantly and came quietly! So all the dirt and secrets in the church were seen by Him! Therefore, things became very clear -
There is a clone of the devil hiding here, and a terrible disaster has suddenly occurred. Do I need to tell you who is the mastermind behind this?
Of course, because there is another demon king on the other side of the rift.
So the mastermind behind this disaster is obviously not just laziness.
And greed!
…
The Greedy Demon was very happy about this.
This is not because of the joy of realizing that laziness is to blame for it.
In fact, he had already run away quickly when the black hole was born.
Apart from knowing that the other side of the black hole was the Holy See of the human world, he had no idea what happened afterwards.
The reason he chose to run away instead of trying to stop it was that he realized that this accident was most likely manipulated by Lucifer behind the scenes.
So if you really intervene, you might end up affecting yourself!
For example, you might fall in and appear in the human world.
But precisely because it realized that it was Lucifer who was causing trouble, it was very happy, and even felt as if a burden had been lifted and its whole body was relaxed.
"Isn't it just taking the blame?"
A huge black dragon as big as a mountain range was soaring in the deep sea of clouds in hell, thinking nonchalantly.
"I don't have to worry about having too much debt. I will be targeted by those guys anyway. Why should I care about this?"
"I'll let you be proud for now, and wait until the limelight passes, and then see how I fight back..."
The lava from hell leaked to the headquarters of the Holy See, which would inevitably bring the wrath of Heaven.
And he, the "mastermind" behind the scenes, will definitely be hunted down next.
However, before this, he had already realized that he would be targeted, and whether he was chased or not would not affect his strategy of finding a place to hide.
On the other hand, this incident also made Greedy vaguely guess Lucifer's plan - to use himself as a substitute to attract everyone's attention.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
That's why he felt relieved.
Being framed and being targeted by everyone certainly made him angry, but he was actually more worried that there were some traps hidden in that authority that he could not understand!
Right now, it seems like I'm just taking the blame.
That's no big deal.
The lava from hell demolished the headquarters of the Vatican, not the kingdom of heaven.
Those angels will certainly be angry, but this anger will only last for a while at most.
Even if they hold a grudge against him later, they won't really spend many resources targeting him.
"At most, I will cooperate with the demon kings to surround and kill me."
"But if they want to set up an encirclement and kill me, they have to find me first..."
Greedy thought happily.
He was totally unaware that behind him, there was an archangel authorized by the Supreme Will of Heaven, chasing him at high speed! ...
Archangel Trafford was not the only one appointed by God.
The bearded prophet on the other side of the world, having received some kind of authorization before this, looked up at the sky with his eyes wide open, as if trying hard to see something clearly.
The power of a prophet comes from God.
In addition to the terrifying power of "wishes coming true", God also gives the prophets the ability to predict the future, which is almost abnormal.
The conditions for using this ability are harsh and the cost of using it is heavy.
But once used, the effect is very powerful.
The prophecy about the end of the world and the unclean people came from the mouth of a prophet.
Hence everything that happened recently.
And now, when the black hole incident triggered a "crisis of faith" and affected the normal operation of the kingdom of heaven.
This predictive ability has already had an opportunity to be activated! This is because this method that can affect the stability of the Kingdom of Heaven itself, except for a certain existence that participated in the establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven, no other outsiders know about it! "Grasping" this line, the bearded man looked up at the sky, and soon came to a conclusion.
"One king dies, and seven kings live?"
Muttering these words, he was somewhat confused, not sure how these words related to Lucifer's whereabouts.
But not long after, the bearded man slapped his forehead and reacted.
"It's seven kings who died and one king who lived!"
"Greedy Demon Lord!"
He suddenly understood everything, and then became excited and laughed happily in front of the computer.
It was as if years of hard work had finally paid off.
"Lucifer has long been revived in the body of the Greedy Demon!"
