Chapter 167 Adanelle's Doubts
Different people care about different things.
The goddess of nature cares about this world, so it is very effective to mention to her that God is extremely ambitious and is ready to abandon the world.
Now she seemed to have reluctantly compromised and stood on God's side.
But in fact, as long as she plans for a while, she will be no different in essence from the "traitor" that Andy planted next to God.
Adanelle is different from the goddess of nature.
She would be angry about the various tragedies that happened to the human world, and would hunt down invading demons all over the world to prevent them from causing disasters.
But in fact, she doesn't really care about this world.
If God reveals His "escape plan" one day, Adanelle will only be a supporter, not an opponent or a reluctant compromiser.
So Andy talked to her about the people of heaven.
Adanelle cares about the Kingdom of Heaven, which is made up of believers who live forever.
If their existence is problematic, then would she still insist that the Kingdom of Heaven cannot be destroyed? "Perhaps immortality does not require the consumption of magic power..."
In response to Andy's remarks, blonde Adanelle actually had a reason to defend herself.
"But training them to become warriors will inevitably require resources. The Heavenly Kingdom has tens of millions of troops, and the magic power required is enormous."
"But," Andy asked again, "who are they guarding against with such a huge army of heaven?"
"Of course, the two sources of disaster, Hell and Purgatory."
"Is that really the case? If it is mainly used to defend against enemies, then why doesn't God use that magic power to train angels?"
"this--"
Adanielle was speechless.
She hadn't thought about this question before.
In other words, few people would consider whether there are other reasons why God trains an army in heaven.
The purpose of training an army is to fight the enemy. Isn't this a matter of course?
But at the moment, facing Andy's question, she found it difficult to respond.
As he thought about it carefully, his dissatisfaction and annoyance towards Andy's intention to start a war were also affected by this question and turned into confusion.
Because things are indeed very abnormal.
Angels and archangels are both creations of God, and compared to immortal human believers, angels are actually more suitable to be trained as warriors.
It can even be said that angels are born warriors. Every newborn angel has the combat power and powerful talent to defeat a hundred enemies alone.
Why not cultivate an elite race like angels, but instead spend a huge amount of magic power to transform the souls of human believers into soldiers of heaven? Is it because angels are difficult to cultivate and difficult to "reproduce"? This is indeed true.
But if we persist in consuming magical energy for cultivation over thousands of years, then even if the "fertility rate" is very low, population expansion can occur.
Instead of being small like it is now, the number always remains at around 100,000.
From this, Adanelle even thought of another deeper problem.
Why doesn't God train archangels?
For countless years, there have been only seven archangels, and it seems that they are fixed and no new ones can be born.
But weren't the archangels created by God in the beginning?
At that time, God had not yet dominated the world and was quite weak compared to now.
When they were weak, they were able to create archangels. Why don't they do the same now that they are strong? The combat power of an archangel is comparable to that of a demon king... If there are more of them, wouldn't it be more advantageous to attack the enemy? Is it because their positions are fixed and they are limited by certain rules, so there is no way to increase their number?
Or is there some other reason? These questions made Adanelle stunned for a long time, her mind gradually became confused, she wanted to refute, but she couldn't convince herself.
But completely believing Andy's words went against her ideas that she had held for countless years - after all, there was no evidence.
Maybe there was something else going on? However, just as she was thinking this, Andy's other question made her heart tighten.
“God sent prophets to work in secret, to investigate the unclean, and He did something else at the same time.”
"Why do I have to hide these things from you?"
"Are you afraid that your henchmen will secretly cause trouble?"
"Or are there other complicated reasons?"
Adanelle said nothing when she heard this, but there was a puzzled look in her eyes, as if she had remembered something.
However, she did not say those things. After standing there for a moment, she disappeared instantly.
Andy didn't take it seriously and turned his attention to the ongoing college meeting.
He actually knows the answers to many questions, but he can't just say them.
Some things require the other party to investigate personally to be completely sure.
Otherwise you will only be half-believing and half-doubting.
…
The blond archangel did intend to investigate.
However, just as she left Andy, her "way" was blocked.
"Can you tell me about the apocalypse?"
A light sound like the breeze blew from the bottom of her heart, making Adanelle alert instantly.
Because the one who stopped her was an elk, or rather, the goddess of nature, the mother of God!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"You don't need to worry about me overhearing your conversation just now."
In the dark forest outside the academy, the elk stood quietly not far away, his expression motionless, but he seemed to have guessed the archangel's vigilance.
"Because I did overhear."
“…”
"But that's not the point. The point is, Andy knew full well that I was always in the dark."
"...clear?" Adanelle was surprised.
How could Andy discover something that she didn't even notice?
"Because you would suspect that he was behind the disaster that befell the church."
The elk's hooves stepped on the broken leaves in the forest and slowly came to the side of the archangel.
"As soon as this happened, I determined that he was the one who did it, so I came to find him."
Adanelle was even more confused after hearing this.
Because she didn't know what had happened between the person in front of her and Andy.
So now I am very confused.
Andy guessed that the goddess was eavesdropping in secret, but he still said those words. This proves that Andy was not afraid that the goddess would run to God to report him, so he didn't need to worry.
This is obviously what the other party meant.
But when did the relationship between the two sides become so "close"?
As the mother of God, shouldn't this goddess be on God's side? Why did she seem indifferent when she knew that Andy was not right?
Could it be that, just as he had guessed, the goddess of nature had also been "bewitched" by the resurrection plan?
But not much time has passed since the goddess appeared.
In such a short time, it shouldn't be...
The elk did not explain this.
When she came closer, she said something that surprised Adanelle even more.
"You can think of the armies of heaven as God's energy batteries."
As if she was not talking about her own child, her tone was cold and even a little disgusted.
“This is the result of my previous investigation.”
"There should be more secrets in there. I'm not sure, but if you're willing, we can go and learn more about it together."
"Of course I do."
Adanelle hesitated, "But before that, I have a question I want to ask."
"What's the problem?"
"Are you really God's...Mother?"
