From the God of Lies to the Lord of All Worlds

Chapter 60 "Brotherhood, come and collect the token!"

Lyon felt exhilarated. The desolation of his family's destruction slowly faded from his heart, leaving behind a sense of aspiration to participate in a great cause!
The original "fight to the death" mentality disappeared, and a new vitality was injected into his body.

Although he no longer has a family, he is now working for the continuation of the Papacy, and he has found a new home.

Rather, it is the Church, which is under the watchful gaze of the Lord and blessed by angels, and he is the "chosen one" under this watchful gaze!
Lyon firmly believes that he is the true chosen one, otherwise he would not have obtained the power of a "knight" and be required to continue fulfilling the mission of the ancient times.

The box is located in the main building of the prison.

This is a building near the entrance, which serves as an office, inspection room, and storage room.

Leon remembered clearly that when he came in yesterday, he left all his belongings here and was searched. If nothing unexpected happened, his things should still be in the building.

He only came in yesterday and hasn't been here long. Even if some people want to change his luck, it won't happen so quickly.

The vehicles transporting the goods won't leave until tomorrow morning, so even if the prison guards did steal his things, he can find them in this prison.

This is an island, originally intended as a single passageway to prevent prisoners from escaping, but now it has become a source of his confidence.

Thinking about all this, Leon walked to the door and saw several prison guards there.

The prison guards saw the clothes he was wearing and immediately became alert. "This is not free time, prisoner! Go back to your cell immediately! I repeat, go back to your cell immediately!"

The prison guard's voice was loud and shrill, attracting the attention of many people around.

The other prison guards also gathered around with their batons, and some of the prisoners who had just been brought in also saw this "colleague" and turned their heads with interest.

But Leon didn't say anything, he just walked quietly forward and came straight up to the prison guards.

“Please move aside, I won’t hurt you!” Leon said, looking at the ordinary people, not wanting to fight.

As a knight, one should uphold chivalrous virtues; engaging in combat without authorization is not something he should do.

Hearing this, and looking at the not-so-strong prisoner, the guards chuckled. "Looks like we didn't make you feel respected!"

The two men raised their stun guns, turned them on, and then plunged them into Leon's body without hesitation!
A few seconds passed, but the expected pain, kneeling and wailing did not happen. Instead, the man in front of them remained indifferent, not even moving an inch.

"Brotherhood Code: If anyone stands in our way of carrying on our legacy, we will take appropriate action to punish them!"

As Lyon muttered these words, the light of the iris bloomed from his palm.

The next second, his body jolted violently, and the prison guards around him were thrown to the ground like rag dolls!
As the light in his hand burst forth, all those who had fallen to the ground simultaneously clutched their heads and began to wail in pain.

This was certainly not caused by an impact, but rather by the effect of the stigmata "Iris Light Mark," which was used to punish ordinary people for evil!

If this person is a saint, with no evil in their heart but only righteousness, then the stigmata will enhance their power.

However, if a person harbors sin and evil thoughts, then the Holy Mark will punish them!

Lyon continued walking forward, and with each step, the stigmata in his hand would flash, and then the prison guards who rushed over would collapse, clutching their heads.

As he walked, people around him collapsed and groaned in pain.

They are all sinners, and therefore they are being punished by their own hearts!
The pain and darkness from within are punishing them, making them unable to control themselves. Their cries of agony are incredibly loud, becoming a reflection of Leon's inner turmoil.

Everyone was stunned by this bizarre scene.

What kind of monster is this man? Why are all the people around him who come into contact with him clutching their heads and howling in pain?
Lyon was also somewhat disappointed. What was going on? There wasn't a single kind person among these prison guards? Had they all been taken down?

Soon, he was able to continue walking forward, but the sound of footsteps coming from behind made Leon turn around.

Before him stood dozens of prison guards armed with rifles and shotguns, and in the middle of them was Warden Angel Boda Scott.

“Mr. Leon Rankoc, please don’t do anything that could mislead us!” Angelboda said from the crowd. “As a prisoner, you have committed many crimes, such as murder, assaulting police officers, and robbery. It’s not too late to surrender!”

“I am Angel Boda, the warden of the Los Angeles County Jail. If you are willing to surrender, I can talk to you! Even pardoning your crimes is not out of the question!”

"I know you have the ability to give us a headache, but if you take just one step forward, we'll open fire! Please don't make a mistake!"

Angelboda certainly didn't come randomly; he had carefully assessed Leon's abilities based on his performance in the video. The man had taken down the prison guards closest to him, who were groaning on the ground, but those further away remained unmoved, indicating he lacked ranged attack capabilities.

The fact that he didn't fight his way out suggests that he might not have that ability.

With this basic assessment in mind, Angelboda dared to appear before Lyon with his men, first trying to appease him and then threatening him, to see if he could take Lyon as his dog.

Seeing this, Leon smiled!

He glanced at the group of prison guards at the entrance, and even more guards outside, as well as prisoners watching from the plaza further away, and said softly:
“Actually, I just wanted to quietly take my things and leave!” Leon said. “Killing that man was my mission, and now that it’s done, I’ve given up my life!”

"Now that I have a new life, I am ready to embark on a brand new mission!"

"I am the messenger chosen by the Lord, I am the knight destined to march forward for the future, this is my glorious mission!"

His words sounded cryptic and made Angelboda a little impatient. "So, you're saying you're not willing to surrender, is that it?"

"The Templars never surrender!" Lyon shouted. "Do not stand in my way, or my charge will destroy everything in its path!"

"Fire! Don't aim for his vitals, subdue him first!" Angelboda finally said, and he chose to fire.

"Bang!" A group of prison guards carrying shotguns loaded with rubber bullets opened fire first.

The bullets struck Leon, but he didn't move an inch and remained standing in place.

This kind of attack, which could make ordinary people tremble and kneel down with a single shot, didn't even make him tremble in front of him!

"You have chosen war, so I will give you war!"

The stone on his chest shimmered slightly, causing Leon to kneel down on one knee, place his hand on his forehead, and begin his pre-battle prayer.

A strange prayer appeared in his mind, which he read aloud bit by bit:
"Lord of hosts! Rock of Jacob!"

You use the Red Sea as your bowstring.
Using the Ark of the Covenant as the battle flag—

At this moment, my armor is the scale of your holy word.
My sword is the flint and tinder of judgment!

As he recited these prayers, the faint sound of war drums could be heard coming from the surrounding space!

It was like the sounds of a battlefield, images from an ancient war. These sounds made all the prison guards with guns suddenly tremble!

A series of luminous figures appeared and disappeared around him; they were a group of knights on warhorses!

And Lyon's voice was still praying!

"Not relying on warhorses, nor on iron cavalry"

Only by raising the cross as a spear!
Until the dust settled on the Megiddo Plain,
May the banners of the armies fly over the New Jerusalem!

Amen!"

He stood up, and the white light emanating from his body drew everyone's attention. His devout demeanor and the radiance he emitted caused some prison guards to kneel down and pray to him, begging for forgiveness!

They had no choice but to do this, because the faith in the Lord was so deeply ingrained in the hearts of the people in this country, and what was unfolding before their eyes was clearly a miracle of the Lord!

This man was clearly either a prophet or a saint; the white light that flashed in the darkness was enough to awaken everyone.

Angelboda also awoke from his primal greed, and he asked tremblingly, "Who...who are you? What are you here for?"

“Brotherhood, come and collect the token!” Leon replied softly.

PS: Thank you so much, Jin Taiyan, for the 500 Qidian coins!

　In fact, being a superhuman doesn't necessarily mean killing people. Moreover, in my setting, the superhumans of the Holy See are positive. Their killings are more out of internal malice and external evil. Although the Holy See may not be righteous, the Heaven faction I set is definitely righteous, which is why they are purging the scum. Isn't that a point of interest?

　　Please keep reading and give me monthly votes, I'm begging you guys, it really matters to me!
