Great Paladin in the World of American Comics

Chapter 167

The Holy Light's Hope Chapel is quite different from the original construction site.

Since the acceptance was completed and the Church of the Holy Light began to preach, it has long been transformed into a huge church fortress area. The core area covers an area of ​​nearly [-] standard football fields, with large and small fortress-style church buildings and supporting facilities. There are twelve sets in total, thousands of large and small statues, and countless carved decorations, just like a small Vatican.

At this time, in this church area, in addition to the members and staff of the Church of the Holy Light, all kinds of believers who came to worship, pray, or seek the blessing (treatment) of the Holy Light came and went, bustling, making This place is more lively than the average university town.

"..."

However, those things are not important to Steve Rogers, because right now, he is standing silently beside the large prayer fountain in the Holy Light's Hope Chapel in a daze.

Around him, tourists or believers passed by from time to time, and then threw coins engraved with words into the pool of the praying fountain.

The reason why Steve Rogers was in a daze here was because he was curious and surprised by the paladin statue in the middle of the fountain, which was said to be carved with the Stone of Elune.

Even though it is daytime now, the paladin statue said to be carved on the basis of Mograine still exudes a beam of vertical white light straight into the sky, which is even more blazing than the one in the main hall of the Holy Light's Hope Chapel. The golden light complements each other, making people subconsciously feel that it is extraordinary.

Steve Rogers knew that the beam of white light should not be a technological item, because it was placed on a large transparent crystal base, without any wires underneath, it seemed that it was indeed some kind of self-illuminating magic Stone?

"Hello there!"

"Mr. Rogers, I received a message. They said, are you looking for me?"

"how……"

"I'm not late, am I?"

At this time, when Steve Rogers was silently looking at the fountains, statues and the coins of different colors and sizes at the bottom of the pool in a daze, Reynolds in casual clothes suddenly appeared and walked to his side, and followed him Look side by side at the beautiful fountains that are sprinkling all kinds of water.

"no!"

"I also just arrived not long ago."

Steve Rogers shook his head, not paying attention to the fact that Raynor hadn't shown up until now to meet him in this kind of place.

"That's good!"

"Well, are you interested in throwing a coin in and trying it?"

"It is said that it is very effective!"

Looking at the Holy Light Prayer Fountain imitating Dalaran in front of me, look at those tourists who are always queuing up to the laser engraving machine to let the staff engrave their writing on each coin. Renault immediately grinned after throwing coins one after another into the text.

Unlike Dalaran's broken water pool, which doesn't necessarily work if thrown into it, his Holy Light Prayer Fountain has a chance to cast a secondary healing spell once a day, giving free healing to tourists who throw coins into it.

However, it is unknown who is the lucky one and can trigger the once-a-day chance.

"and also!"

"You should come and see tonight."

"At night, my church will be a little more beautiful than during the day."

Renault has always been very satisfied with the Holy Light's Hope Chapel that he spent a lot of money to enclose and build.

What makes him even more satisfied is that the number of believers in the Church of the Holy Light has exceeded [-] million, and the number of registrations is growing rapidly at a rate of about one million per day. It is certainly not far from other denominations and become the first church on the 'ground'.

"night?"

"Of course, I will definitely come next time I have a chance."

Shaking his head, Steve Rogers didn't say much, but put away the photo he was clutching in his hand, and carefully put it in his shirt pocket.

"Well?"

"that is……"

"Why do I feel a little familiar?"

Seeing the photo of the man in the photo in Steve's hand, Renault couldn't help being startled.

"..."

"Bucky Barnes, a friend of mine."

"He's also Hydra's Winter Soldier, the one who was beheaded by your Amazons."

The captain applied to say the matter a little lonely, but from his tone, he didn't mean to ask Lei Nuo Xingshi for his crimes, it was more just emotion and embarrassment?

"Is it him?"

"I remembered..."

Nodding, Renault remembered.

like……

When they drove across the bridge and entered the gate of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Tricurved Wing headquarters, did they hack and kill a guy who seemed very powerful?
That unlucky fellow should never have played close combat with Hestia!

After all, for the kind of Amazon fighters who have thousands of years to hone their fighting skills, the growth of the earthlings in just a few decades is not enough for them to fight at all.

"Cough cough..."

"Is he really your friend?"

"Yes."

"And still a comrade in arms!"

"what……"

"I regret that!"

"My condolences, Mister Rogers."

"You also know that Hestia was in charge of clearing the field at that time, and the situation was a bit urgent at the time, so maybe she shot a little harder?"

Smiling awkwardly, Renault struggled for a while, and in the end, he generously apologized to the captain Steve Rogers, who would soon become his own, for Hestia.

"No, I didn't mean to blame them."

"Bucky was our enemy at that time. Although I think he must have been used by the enemy for some reason, but in order to prevent Hydra from killing more people, they did nothing wrong at that time."

"only……"

"I watched the surveillance at the time, and I didn't even think that Bucky was not the opponent of the Amazon soldier, and his head was cut off so easily."

"Originally he was very strong, not even weaker than me..."

Thinking about the surveillance video he saw afterwards, captain Steve Rogers sighed with a wry smile.

He saw that at that time, Bucky was massacring in front of the tarmac at the gate of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Tricurved Wing headquarters. At least dozens of lives and several Quin-jet fighters were ruthlessly killed and destroyed by his hands. However, when Lei Nuo and others arrived, and when the Amazon female warrior rushed up, Bucky was cut off by the female warrior. The impact was indeed quite big.

Afterwards, he went to search in that water area, and the staff of S.H.I.E.L.D. also organized an underwater search for the corpse, but Bucky's head has never been recovered, and he has given up on it until now. .

"Maybe!"

"Maybe he's really strong, but he really shouldn't be fighting Amazons!"

"to be frank……"

"Mr. Rogers, whether it is you or him, no matter how strong you are, it is impossible to win a group of women who have lived at least thousands of years and have the same time to hone their fighting skills."

"For the purely cold weapon tactics, they are really already standing on top of the earth."

Shaking his head, Renault said with some emotion.

Anyway, he won't tell the captain in front of him that in a one-on-one situation, and he himself doesn't use strength to crush, but uses equal strength to fight fairly, he is not even one of those terrible women at all. opponent!

The only ones with the same skills are those Asgardian warriors.

This is why he has been devoting himself to recruiting the Amazons and Asgardians, and spared no effort to light-forge them!
Of course, the only ones who are willing to accept his light casting are still those Amazons who may have been worshiped by his reputation, and those Asgardian fighters like Sif and her are still stubbornly not accepting his offer. kindness.

They were a group of stubborn and rigid guys who would not cry until they saw the coffin...

"Thousands of years of skill?"

"No wonder, with your power called Holy Light, it's only natural that you can defeat Bucky with one move."

Nodding his head, captain Steve Rogers seemed to understand why that kind of thing happened.

"never mind!"

"Bucky's matter is over, and he deserved it. Although it may not be his intention, this result is a relief for him. Let's talk about the thing you talked to me last time?"

Taking one last look at the magical fountain, Steve Rogers took a deep breath and turned to Raynor, ready to accomplish something more important for which he came here.

"no problem!"

"but……"

"Mr. Rogers, have you really figured it out?"

"I can give you what you want, but in return, you must also give me, and give my church the most basic feedback, that is - loyalty!"

"Once you accept it, you will no longer fight for this country, but for the Holy Light!"

"You have to make that clear first."

Although he already knew the real purpose of the other party coming to find him, Lei Nuo still confirmed it and asked the other party again solemnly.

"..."

"Yes!"

"I've thought about it, I've already lost Bucky, I don't want to lose her again, I can accept your terms, but..."

"Are you sure you can do it?"

"Peggy is very weak now, and the doctor said that she may not last until the end of this month."

Thinking of Peggy's physical condition, his aging body, and his friend Bucky who could have lived with him in this era, Captain Steve Rogers couldn't help feeling a little emotional. Confused, I don't know if my current choice is right or not.

"I promise you that!"

"bring it on!"

"Take care of your affairs first. As for your other friend... I will help you after her life is completely over. Although the time paradox may be difficult to understand, I don't care about that." How much!"

Grinning smugly, Renault waved and turned around to lead the way, letting Captain Steve follow him towards an internal passage in the church area that was not open to the public.

"??"

"What about Peggy's matter about the time paradox?"

Captain Steve Rogers was a little baffled, but he still quickly followed Reynolds, and entered a corridor inside the castle through a passage guarded by paladins.

"Aha!"

"I guess you don't want to know."

Renault will not tell the other party: If there is no him in this world, the other party will still spend the rest of his life with that woman in the end!
Of course, that's in another way, and with the help of something?

but……

In this world with its own, the other party will definitely not have that opportunity, so the other party can only choose another method provided by him.

"bring it on!"

"It's just ahead."

"??"

"Are we going there?"

"Go see someone."

"Go to the man who gave you the light!"

"Of course it might not necessarily be a person?"

"??"

"Didn't you cast light for me?"

"No!"

"of course not!"

"I usually only lightcast my own women now, and you are a man, so I'm sorry, Mr. Steve Rogers. For guys like you, I naturally have other arrangements."

He stopped, turned his head and smiled mysteriously at Captain Steve Rogers, and then Reynolds took another step towards the front of the castle.

"..."

Although a little speechless, Steve still didn't say much, and just quickly chased after the other party and followed.

Soon, after about a few minutes, the two came to the back door of a hall that was usually not open to the public, and under the salute of the two armored paladins at the door, they pushed open the heavy door. Small wooden door.

"!!"

"God, God..."

"It, what is it?!"

In doubt, Steve Rogers, who had just entered the hall, was instantly stunned by the blazing holy light filling the hall and the huge sacred existence floating in mid-air and slowly rotating.

"Adal!"

"Incarnation of Holy Light!"

"To be honest, it's really not easy to get it here..."

Renault also sighed, and at the same time reached out his hand to say hello to A'dal who was planning to have a spiritual exchange with him.

At this moment, A'dal was emitting divine radiance up and down his whole body, and the golden light emitted penetrated the spire of the central hall of the Holy Light's Wish Chapel and went straight to the sky, making his Holy Light's Wish Chapel become the city, even the sky. It is the same building as the landmark of this continent.

Although it was daytime, the huge beam of holy light that descended from the sky still shrouded the Holy Light's Hope Chapel, and was believed by all the righteous and believers in the Holy Light to be the guidance of the God of Holy Light.

In fact, Renault knew that Adal was just a holy creature of the holy light, like a jellyfish living in the water, and the other party was only living in the holy light.

However, for the needs of missionary work and for the Church of the Holy Light, Renault and Sally will not publicize that way.

And it is the helper that Renault and Sally found, and it is also one of the killers against demons like Mephisto.

Next time, if that Mephisto still dares to make trouble, even if Renault is not here by then, he firmly believes that the one who is slowly floating in the midair of the hall, spinning slightly and emitting holy light Dahl will definitely impress the other party!

Perhaps, if the other party comes again, they may not be able to leave, right?
