Magic High School.

"Let's become idols to save the world," my older sister said.

"Huh?" Valerie exclaimed in bewilderment.

Chapter 282 The Ten Commandments

"Using religious influence to solve the problem of public trust? I must say, that's a very good method. Learn from this. After this incident is over, I'll write you letters of recommendation so you can take the planetary observer certification exam and advance your careers." Abaddon suddenly slapped Li Ge on the back of the head, but the slap passed right through his brain.

He then realized that this thing was already in spirit form...

"No, what does this have to do with taking the planetary observer certification exam?" Li Gehuan clutched the back of her head in pain.

At the same time, he had always wanted to complain about this so-called planetary observer, which made it seem like Ultraman Seven was inspecting the Hagis. In simple terms, it was just proof that you had an ability similar to "permission to be granted".

Or, to put it another way, a local police officer's badge simply makes you a local police officer.

If you're capable, you don't need this thing at all; if you're not capable, it won't be of much use.

"Actually, the hardest part of these things is communicating with subordinates. But in our observations..." Abaddon's lips curled up slightly as he said, "basically, as long as it's not a particularly civilized region, as long as you act like a charlatan, it will work in 99% of cases. This is an essential skill to learn, so watch carefully."

Abaddon said, then looked at Li Ge, knowing that this kid was the type who wouldn't do anything without a benefit, so he quickly added, "There's another perk after becoming a planetary observer."

"What kind of benefits?" Li Ge pricked up her ears.

“By signing a contract with the World Tree, you will obtain a branch of the World Tree, and at a crucial moment, you will have the qualification to use a ‘divine descent’ spell,” Abaddon said.

"Divine Descent Technique?" Although Li Ge was only a half-student of the Mystic Academy, he had heard of the Mystic Academy's signature skill, Divine Descent Technique.

While the Noble Phantasm Department is known for its combat prowess and the Traditional Department for its scientific research, the Mystic Department is renowned solely for its divine descent and domain techniques.

To put it simply, the domain is about using your inner self to erode the real world and form a small area where you are the "world consciousness".

The so-called "spirit possession" is a ritual in which "ancestors, gods, angels" or similar entities descend upon you, also known as "spirit possession" or "being possessed by a spirit."

Even Valerie's previous summoning of angels could be considered a variation of divine intervention.

"If I use the World Tree's Divine Descent Technique, who can I summon?" Li Ge complained.

"I don't know, maybe it's one of those senior students who slept in the World Tree, or even the former principal?" Abaddon chuckled and teased. "Who knows, maybe you'll also go to sleep in the World Tree after you die, and then be pulled out by your descendants to work for you using divine intervention."

"Isn't this just Heroic Spirit Summoning?" Li Ge muttered. What kind of divine descent technique is this? It's just Heroic Spirit Summoning! Does it have Command Seals? Am I now a Master? Do I need to replenish mana?

Li Ge's mind immediately began to wander.

"More or less," Abaddon said.

While the group was complaining, Valerie finally made her decision. To save her homeland's damned duchy inhabitants, she decided to debut as an idol!

……

Kingdom, capital city.

Uncle Saint Gluckia immediately led his troops to occupy the area. Without knowing about the blood-thirsty disease, they only came to one conclusion.

coup?

This is an easy conclusion to draw. After all, for the people living in the duchy, waking up to find that the knight commander, who should have been defending the border against the imperial army, had taken complete control of the capital with a large force and begun to manage various affairs, obviously terrified countless people.

Uncle Saint Gluckia also mentioned the blood-thirsty disease, and that each of the thousands of soldiers wore a monocle and had a jug filled with holy water.

However, perhaps his words didn't carry enough weight, or perhaps the entire duchy was already ravaged by the bloodthirst disease, which led to several nobles attempting to break out and rebel in just a short period. While only a small number were infected with the bloodthirst disease, it incited a large number of people without the disease to rebel.

Even Uncle Saint Gluckia had become somewhat numb from killing.

Only now did he suddenly understand the terrifying nature of this blood-thirsty disease. Its most terrifying aspect was its ability to disguise and bewitch.

It stirs up public opinion, incites people, blends into the crowd, and can spread exponentially.

The entire capital, and even the other cities that had been taken over, were thrown into turmoil.

In fact, taking advantage of the chaos, the blood-thirsty patients can cause more trouble and expand their influence, turning the entire capital upside down.

This is quite normal, after all, it's their forte. For them, spreading the infection is their top priority.

Even though Uncle Saint Gluckia brought thousands of monocles and everyone had "holy water," it was still a drop in the ocean for the entire capital.

This was his most desperate situation. To make matters worse, even more foolish nobles actually believed he had rebelled, and thus united to launch a rebellion…

He glanced at the shattered sky. Even though the man didn't know there were only seven days left, he knew in his mind that time was running out. If there was no way to solve it…

“Then let’s give up… We can only save those who deserve it…” That was all Saint Gluckia could say in the end.

At that moment, he felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness.

Thirst disease...

This despairing illness is so difficult to treat even now, with the means they now have to cope with it; if it were like before…

"Is this how an empire is killed so silently?" he sighed inwardly.

Just when he was in utter despair, a ray of light suddenly shone down from the sky.

He squinted, and suddenly saw...

Angel?

In the principality's church, an angel is enshrined. And that angel is the peculiar Archangel of Order summoned by their ancestor more than three thousand years ago. In fact, they are also considered half of the Order Cult, but they are a wild Order Cult that spontaneously worships the God of Order and has absolutely no connection with the Church of the God of Order.

Although they do not explicitly believe in a God of Order, but only in that Archangel of Order, the statues in the church are actually the human form of that Archangel of Order...

This is why the Saint Gluckia family was able to achieve such an absurd combination—himself a Grand Master of Paladins, and his wife a bishop. Their power was arguably no less than that of royalty.

only……

However, today, Uncle Saint Gluckia looked at the angel as if he had seen a ghost.

Not only him, but also the other soldiers who followed him, or the ordinary people who were filled with fear, all knelt down on the ground when they saw the holy angel in the sky.

A sacred and resounding hymn filled the sky. At the same time, pure white feathers fell from the sky, then turned into specks of light and vanished.

The sacred hymn seemed to soothe many. Then the angel spoke:

"I proclaim in the name of the Archangel of Order." The resounding voice echoed in the ears of everyone in the sky.

One commandment is to discern truth from falsehood; those whose eyes are blinded should use a monocle to examine themselves; those who harbor doubts should reflect upon themselves with holy water. One must not condone the evils that lurk among the people.

The second commandment is to defend our homeland together. If you see someone suffering from blood thirst, report it immediately to the Holy Knight or the Church; if you see someone inciting rebellion, stay away from their words. Only by working together can we stop the spread of the plague.

The Three Commandments: Keep the Law...

The Four Commandments protect the weak...

The Five Commandments purify deluded thoughts...

The Six Commandments: Devoutly keep the sanctuary...

The Seven Commandments forbid private fighting...

The Eight Commandments: Be vigilant day and night...

The Nine Commandments, with the protection of angels...

The Ten Commandments usher in a new life; within seven days, a cleansed land will appear. Those who obey these Ten Commandments will enter the new order; those who disobey will perish with thirst for blood.

A majestic voice resounded throughout the entire duchy. At that moment, the Holy Light Choir seemed to be chanting hymns in the heavens. The angel's miraculous descent and these words ultimately calmed the vast majority of the people. Many began to accept the Knights' protection…

In the distance, amidst a crowd gathered and preparing to cause trouble, the "angel" merely extended her hand. In the next instant, several previously normal people underwent mutations and distortions, transforming into "bloodthirsty monsters." Simultaneously, in the angel's gently grasping hand, the "bloodthirsty monsters" instantly died, their bodies seemingly purified by the angel's light.

Such scenes were displayed in several prominent locations.

This miraculous occurrence, this scene of familiar people turning into monsters, completely shattered the hearts of many. They came to believe that this was no longer some conspiracy theory or coup, but that a monster truly lurked among them.

At that moment, Saint Gluckia felt his legs loosen. He knew things were much easier now; while not completely resolved, things were certainly much easier for him.

He looked at the angel with gratitude. Saint Gluttony believed that Valerie might have succeeded once again, summoning the angel that the Saint Gluttony family had failed to summon again for thousands of years.

But why does this angel's figure seem so familiar?

Meanwhile, in the sky, Li Ge kept playing hymns, and Valerie even said, "Turn the music up to the maximum!"

"It's not that I can't do it, it's that I can't do it. I turned the system volume up to the maximum and even had Senior Aika add a telepathic spell to achieve a similar effect," Li Ge complained.

Yes, this is not some "angelic arrival," but rather a cheap imitation created by a group of people.

At its core, Valerie still possesses angelic power within her. Or rather, after making a pact with the Archangel of Order, she became a "prospective angel."

According to the Archangel of Order, if she adhered to the Eight Virtues throughout her life, she would become a true angel after death. This was the true price of the contract, which was to make Valerie a candidate for angelic duty.

So she was able to use some of the angel's power, but that wasn't enough, so Li Ge was possessed by a ghost and threw the rest of her companions into the domain.

This was already second nature to them. On the surface, it appeared to be just Li Ge possessing Valerie's body, but there was also a whole cart of bread people hidden within the domain.

Li Ge was responsible for playing the hymns and adjusting the volume, while attaching his golden eyes to Valerie's body so that she could also see the bloodthirst disease throughout the city.

Senior Aika was responsible for casting the sound transmission spell, since only Senior Aika and Daphne knew how to use this traditional magic. However, Daphne was also responsible for creating the light particle effects of the feathers falling to the ground, and so on.

As for the bloodthirsty monsters that revealed their true forms after being illuminated by Valerie's light, they originated from Li Ge's Wheel of Revelation. For a short time, he possessed Valerie, and the adaptability of the Wheel of Revelation was applied to the holy light. As long as they were exposed to the holy light, the bloodthirsty monsters would have nowhere to hide.

Of course, this only applies to what's exposed; things hidden in a room or in the shadows can't be taken care of.

The sudden deaths of those bloodthirsty monsters were caused by Xiaoye stabbing them one by one. There were no fancy effects; Xiaoye simply filled her shadow space with holy water imbued with adaptive power, and then attacked with the shadow carrying this holy water. The bloodthirsty monsters were instantly killed by the adaptive power of the Wheel of Revelation.

In short, the group put in a lot of effort to create this "assembled angel".

Although it was abstract, it seemed to have really fooled everyone and stabilized the situation.

"Are we... over?" Valerie asked. To be honest, even though she was currently possessed by Li Ge and normally no one should be able to see her face, she just felt incredibly ashamed!

The Archangel of Hope should have resolved these matters, but after seven days of delay, he was completely exhausted.

Valerie could only sigh.

“It should be over now…” Li Ge said.

“We can’t save everyone, not even the school. We can only save the vast majority. As for the rest…” Li Ge said, “Valerie, do you remember the paladin from Pure Paradise who continued to appear on the radio even after his death?”

"I remember..."

“We’re just like him; we can’t save everyone, but at least we can save everyone who’s willing to believe in us.” Li Ge seemed to have finally stopped “bullying” Valerie and was instead trying to comfort her.

Over the next few days, the monocles produced were delivered to the rear. Furthermore, holy water, capable of suppressing bloodthirsty monsters, was also mass-produced, allowing most combat-capable individuals to equip themselves with the monocle and carry the holy water.

The blood disease was completely suppressed before it could fully erupt.

What was originally a crisis that could have destroyed the world was thus averted without a trace.

Li Ge and the others seemed to be able to truly rest. The remaining tasks could be left to others. Abaddon also opened a portal from the Duchy to the Fairy Forest, where Daphne had made preparations.
