I, Lord of Prayer
Chapter 43 Gods
Indeed. 💛🐙 69Ş𝔥Ữˣ.Ćό𝐌 ♖😺Google search and read
The Bavo Port Massacre, the Seven-Day Rage, the City of Eternal Slumber, the Night the Sun Fell... and many more major disasters instigated by the Church of the Abyss have caused irreparable and severe damage.
Compared to that, this is undoubtedly a very small matter.
But is it really small?
Those were two vibrant lives, two completely different paths in life. They should have had bright futures, but they were utterly destroyed by the cruelest means...
For Zhou Chen, the witness, it was not small; in fact, it was quite heavy.
Admittedly, without the help of the Eternal Flame, Li Guangjun would still be a useless person, unable to meet Zhou Yi, and therefore unable to have this brief period of happiness.
But that's Li Guangjun's business. What does it have to do with Zhou Chen wanting to smash the head of the mastermind behind the scenes?
If you catch someone in a nightclub, shoot them there; if you meet them on the street, hang them from a lamppost; if you meet them in a toilet, grab them and drown them in the toilet.
—This is his attitude.
—Because he was very unhappy!
"You must remember this, Zhou Chen, you must remember this feeling."
Jiang Che looked at him, his gaze calm and profound: "Do not harbor any sympathy, wishful thinking, or pity for the Abyss Church. They are a cancer, a pawn used by the Abyss to erode this world."
"abyss……"
After a moment of confusion, Zhou Chen closed the file and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly is the Abyss?"
"The cancer of the world, the shadow of the world, a hell beyond reality, a dark world filled with despair and distortion."

Jiang Che said, "Some say the abyss is a scar left over from the war of the gods when the old era was destroyed, while others say that the power of the war of the gods was so terrifying that it tore apart the dimensions of reality, thus opening a bridge between the human world and hell."
But regardless of the interpretation, the essence of the abyss remains unchanged—it's like cancer cells, seeking to assimilate our world.
"They're just evil forces trying to destroy the world." Zhou Chen roughly understood. He pondered for a moment, then asked, "What about the gods? Haven't they thought of a solution?"
Gods truly exist in this world. Although Zhou Chen has never seen one with his own eyes, he has read through many events related to "divine descent" in the database and can glimpse the unimaginable power that gods possess.
Jiang Che shook his head: "The relevant information is highly classified within the Star Alliance. I only know that they tried it before, but ultimately failed."
"Failed?" Zhou Chen looked surprised.
"That's normal. Every Abyss King is equivalent to a god, and besides..."
After a pause, Jiang Che continued, "There are now seven gods in the world, but two of them have turned against us and joined the abyss. Their names have become taboo and cannot be mentioned. The remaining five are the 'God of War,' the 'Lord of Dreams,' the 'Goddess of Life,' the 'Moon of Silence,' and the 'Lord of Storms and Oceans.'"
"Wait a minute." Zhou Chen said in disbelief, "Defected?"
"Do you think there's no struggle for power or deceit among the gods?" Jiang Che said calmly. "Besides, don't think of the gods as too perfect; they were once human too."
"Okay, emmmm... I have one last question."
Zhou Chen asked, "Don't they have their own churches? Why have I never seen one?"
"Of course there are, but they are all small-scale churches that normal people can't access."
First, the Star Order forbids them from large-scale missionary work. Second, they do not need the power of faith, so they have never even considered establishing a church; that would be asking for trouble.
Even sleeping in is a million times better than dealing with all sorts of annoying complaints from believers.
Jiang Che leisurely stirred the coffee in his teacup:
"But Gods are called Gods precisely because they possess unimaginable power. Even the slightest display of it is enough to be regarded as a 'miracle' and cause millions to worship them."
They did not have the intention of establishing a church, but a group of people who had received divine grace spontaneously formed a church that believed in them.
However, due to a lack of guidance, many people have gone astray.
Later, the Stars Society consulted with several deities and asked them to take some time to look after their church to prevent any further accidents. This is how it evolved into the current Church of God's Favor.
The followers of the Lord of Storms and Oceans are mostly located in coastal areas; the followers of the Lord of Dreams are mostly insomniacs and occult enthusiasts; the followers of the Goddess of Life are mostly doctors and patients who have suffered from terminal illnesses; and the followers of the Silent Moon must be kind-hearted people.
The "God of War" has no believers, only followers who are stationed year-round at the abyss outposts on the front lines, monitoring and defending against crises within the abyss.
Zhou Chen silently processed this information, and just then, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in," Jiang Che said.
As soon as he finished speaking, a male employee pushed open the door carrying a box, put it down without a word, and turned to leave.
"What is it?" Zhou Chen asked curiously.
"Open it and take a look."
"A gift for me?" Zhou Chen was taken aback, never expecting that this was something for him.
He excitedly rubbed his hands together, took out a knife from the drawer, and eagerly cut open the tape and cardboard box. Inside was an exquisitely crafted alloy box with a familiar logo printed on top—the very logo of the Herlandi Alchemy Workshop.
Without a doubt, this is definitely a piece of alchemical equipment.
What exactly is it...?
Zhou Chen fiddled with the box for a long time with the excitement he felt when drawing a card, but he couldn't find a way to open it at all. He looked at it from the left and right, from the top and the bottom, but no matter how he looked at it, it was just a seamless lump of iron.
"Please enter the activation password."
Suddenly, an electronic mechanical voice sounded from inside the alloy box.
"PE7A5." Jiang Che put down his phone and slowly and deliberately typed in the random verification code he had just received.
Click.
The sound of pivots and gears turning came from the alloy box. The metal shell opened in response, and a palm-sized, flat, round black metal object slowly rose up, propelled by a small lifting platform inside.
It is engraved with an intricate and complex alchemical matrix, with countless tiny lines as precise as a circuit board. At first glance, it looks like a part of a large alchemical machine.
"What is this?" Zhou Chen picked it up and examined it repeatedly, but found nothing special about it.
"Place it on your chest," Jiang Che prompted.
Zhou Chen did as instructed, attaching the matrix to his chest. In an instant, accompanied by a series of soft sounds, the metal matrix extended like flowing water, completely enveloping and covering his body, forming a steel suit with a cold metallic sheen.
He stood there, stunned, incredulous.
"Nano-nano armor?"
