Upon hearing this address, Luo Mi felt a chill run down his spine, and a look of astonishment involuntarily appeared on his face.
His greatest secret was his time travel and his true name. Even though he and Anos had basically reached an understanding of each other’s feelings, Luo Mi had not yet made up his mind to tell the other party about his origins. However, this Anos, who had silver eyes in front of him, revealed it directly!
How did he know?
Since arriving in this world, Luo Mi had never told anyone his real name; only he and… knew it.
Luo Mi’s pupils contracted and then dilated slightly as he cautiously asked, “System?”
The silvery-white phantom of Anos raised an eyebrow slightly: “What is a system?”
Luo Mi was taken aback: “You don’t know? Then how did you learn about this name?”
Silver-white Anos gave him a deep look: “From my former colleague.”
Former colleague? Luo Mi was taken aback again, quickly reviewing the information he currently had in his mind, and a name gradually emerged: “The God’s Wisdom?”
Silver-white Anos nodded.
The God’s Wisdom… Luo Mi pondered the name for a moment, slightly puzzled.
In the underground alchemy laboratory of the Duchy of Perde, there was a statue of the God’s Wisdom. The old pope of the Holy City obtained important information about the end times and angels from the God’s Wisdom. It could be said that ninety percent of the tragedy in Anos’s life was due to the arrangement of that angel.
In the Vatican’s description of the two angels, the God’s Wisdom was a seraphim with orange-red eyes and hair, which was very similar to Luo Mi’s current appearance.
Could it be that God’s Wisdom is the system?
Luo Mi pondered for a while without reaching a conclusion, then continued to ask, “Are you the God’s Heart?”
Silver-white Anos nodded gently: “That was my name in the past.”
Having received a definite answer, Luo Mi breathed a sigh of relief and eagerly asked, “What… what’s going on with Anos? What exactly happened with the apocalypse? Did you kill John and Lina?”
The God’s Heart smiled slightly: “You have too many questions… Perhaps we should start from the beginning of God’s creation of the world.”
Luo Mi: “…”
The God’s Heart began to speak on his own: “In the legends propagated by the Vatican, God created everything in the world— angels, demons, and humans are all God’s creations. Those who undergo trials and tribulations in the world and are able to cleanse their sins can enter the eternally peaceful paradise. Those with heavy sins would be torn apart by demons at the end of the world, while those who are neither here nor there will enter the next era on earth, continuing to endure suffering and waiting for redemption— have you heard this legend?”
Luo Mi nodded.
“When the end times are near, ‘chosen ones’ will appear on earth. These chosen ones will not only be able to enter the paradise themselves, but also those they approve of will be able to enter the paradise.”
The God’s Heart raised its silvery-white eyes and stared at the blurry mural on the ceiling. “Have you ever thought about how many Chosen Ones there are, and how many of them can enter Paradise?”
Luo Mi hesitated for a moment: “The number of Chosen Ones shouldn’t be too many? Are they in three digits?”
He had only encountered a few such cases before.
“The number of Chosen Ones won’t be too large, but they know a lot of people. Their relatives will naturally be recognized by them, and those who are kind to them will also be recognized. And those people’s relatives and friends… This snowballs, and the actual number of people whom the Chosen Ones believe can enter Paradise together is quite large.” The God’s Heart said, a slight smile playing on its lips. “Do you know what percentage of people were taken to Paradise by God before the previous apocalypses?”
Luo Mi shook her head: “There shouldn’t be too many, right? Otherwise, how could Paradise possibly accommodate them all?”
The God’s Heart, still smiling, gave the answer: “More than half, or even more than two-thirds— if you’ve seen the Book of the Lamb at the end of the world, you’ll find it filled with names, and new ones are constantly popping up.”
Luo Mi was stunned for a moment: “Is Paradise this spacious?”
The God’s Heart shook its head: “There is no paradise.”
Luo Mi was startled.
“Paradise is just a lie made up by God.” God’s Heart’s silver eyes met Luo Mi’s gaze, revealing a smile so perfect it sent chills down one’s spine. “After every apocalypse, those who are left behind are the lucky ones.”
Luo Mi swallowed hard, feeling a tingling sensation in her head: “What about those who were chosen? Are they dead?”
“I don’t know, but I can make a guess,” said the God’s Heart. “From my observation, the power of the God has been slowly weakening over time. Each era begins when his power is at its peak, and then it weakens slowly but irresistibly every day until the end of the world arrives. When the next era begins after the end of the world, the power of the God will suddenly increase again, to a level much stronger than at the beginning of the previous era.”
This information made it easy to draw a self-evident conclusion.
Luo Mi’s lips trembled, but he found himself to be calmer than he had imagined: “God ate those people?”
The God’s Heart nodded: “That is my opinion.”
Luo Mi couldn’t help but think of the legends and the Bible that the Vatican had spread.
In all official narratives, humans were likened to lambs, and the Vatican was portrayed as the shepherd who tended the world on behalf of God. Even the barrier protecting the realm of light was named “Eternal Fence”… Now it seems that these are not metaphors, but shocking truths.
All men are lambs.
Luo Mi calmed down and asked his question: “Does the human body or soul have a lot of energy?”
“No, at least I can’t draw much power from the human body,” the God’s Heart replied. “I’ve tried devouring high-ranking demons, but I gained very little power. Ordinary people give me even less, perhaps not even as much as I consume.”
Luo Mi asked instinctively, “Aren’t you an angel? Is it okay for you to devour demons?”
The God’s Heart laughed: “The life essence of angels and demons is the same.”
Luo Mi scratched his head: “So this is the truth about the apocalypse? Then what is the so-called ‘greatest apocalypse’ that the Pope’s great prophecy saw?”
The corners of God’s lips softened: “I think you must have guessed it.”
Luo Mi recalled the scene prophesied by St. Gregory III: a pure white world in which only one figure stood, and in the sky there was a distant, illusory blue star.
A pure white world…
Luo Mi pressed his hand to his chest: “This time… does God intend to devour everyone?”
The God’s Heart smiled but did not answer.
Luo Mi frowned deeply: “But why? If God sees humanity as a flock of sheep that reproduces endlessly, why drain the pond to catch all the fish? Wouldn’t it be better to do things the way he did before?”
The God’s Heart shook his head: “The answer is in the prophecy. I have some interpretations and guesses, but I cannot be sure.”
But I’d like to hear your guess.
