Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel

Chapter 144: The Fall of the Gods


Following an invisible call, Charlotte walked past the surrounding Sun followers and slowly entered the temple.

No Sun followers noticed her, not even the clergy guarding the temple entrance, whose auras rivaled the Blazing Sun, could detect her presence.

It was as if she had returned to her own backyard, swaggering as she walked in.

Unlike outside the temple, there were no Sun followers inside.

This place seemed to be the "forbidden zone" of the Sun Divine Palace, housing a massive circular altar.

Of course, rather than calling it the Sun Divine Palace, it could be better described as an ancient elf ruin.

The marble pillars covered in moss and vines, the shattered crystal dome, and the ancient divine statue broken at the head all testified to the temple's ancient past.

Charlotte even sensed the temple's still-operating magic barrier.

That should be a magic restriction left by the Elf Clan from ancient times, possibly dating back to the height of elf civilization.

Though it was long damaged, it still retained potent magic power, its power reaching at least a quasi-legendary level—which might also be the reason why the temple has not been repaired, as the magic barrier, while protecting the ruins, also prevented external interference, allowing only wild vines and moss to grow freely inside.

As for whom this temple belonged to... the Holy Emblem on the marble pillars made it clear.

It was a Holy Emblem Charlotte had never seen in reality, somewhat similar to the Cross Holy Emblem of the Holy Royal Court, but with the added elements of the Sun and Moon.

This kind of Holy Emblem, Charlotte had once seen in the elf clan's ancient texts—

"It's the Holy Emblem of the Creator God worshipped by the Elf Clan."

Charlotte concluded.

The Creator God!

Regarding the name of the Creator God, there were no related records in the official texts of various churches on the Mireya Continent, only some legends that seemed both true and false and couldn't withstand scrutiny.

No, it should be said that there was no name for them; the Creator God was how they were referred to, and they were the Creator God.

Of course, for many races on the Mireya Continent, due to the existence of the Holy Royal Court, they often equate the Creator God with "Creator God Lord Haral."

But Charlotte, who had crossed through history, knew it wasn't the case at all.

The Creator God is the Creator God, and Haral is Haral.

However, when Charlotte's gaze shifted to the colossal and complex altar in the center of the temple, her expression changed again.

It was an altar with the typical style of the Holy Royal Court, carved with extremely intricate inscriptions, and it was also engraved with the Holy Emblem of the Sun God Helios.

This was exactly the altar Charlotte had seen in the "prediction fragments," where the elf believers summoned the Creator God.

Of course, what made Charlotte change color wasn't finally seeing the altar from the prophecy, but what was offered upon the altar.

There were hundreds of transparent crystals of varying sizes.

These crystals were like orbs of light, emitting gleaming halos of different hues, transforming into illusory symbols of various imagery, exuding a faint aura of divine power that was dazzling to behold.

Even though they were sealed by the golden chains on the altar, the energy intensity they emitted was immensely unsettling, causing even Charlotte, who had become a True God, to feel her divine soul and divine fire tremble.

The divine power... had varying sources, some mixed, some pure, some fierce, some gentle, some intense, some cold... But at this moment, these divine powers from different origins were interconnected by the altar.

Stimulated by this divine power, the light of the Blood Holy Scripture within Charlotte's consciousness grew even brighter.

And the mysterious call that Charlotte sensed was precisely from this altar, or more accurately... from the many crystals of varying sizes on this altar.

Of course, compared to "crystals," they had a more formal name—

"Divine Position..."

Feeling the faint divine power fluctuations, Charlotte murmured in disbelief.

Divine Position!

The hundreds of crystals placed upon this altar were actually sealed Divine Positions!

As for to whom these Divine Positions belonged... when Charlotte discerned the various illusory symbols, she already knew the answer in her heart.

These symbols were the Holy Emblems of the Mireya Gods, and these Holy Emblems were familiar to many people on the Mireya Continent, and the holy believers could rattle off their true names one by one—

The lyre sigil symbolizing Aphrodite, the Beauty God...

The scales sigil symbolizing Gallimore, the God of Judgement...

The book covenant sigil symbolizing Mitra, the Secret Covenant God...

Symbolizing...

These Holy Emblems... each one was registered in the Holy Book, belonging to the gods of the Holy Royal Court!

The ever-changing halos of divine power revolved on these Divine Positions, yet Charlotte didn't feel the fluctuations of divine soul power nor the burning of divine fire.

Evidently, the owners of these Holy Emblems, those gods belonging to the Holy Royal Court, had long fallen.

Otherwise, such a multitude of Divine Positions couldn't possibly be confined with just one altar.

"I see now... they intend to sacrifice the Divine Positions of the gods to awaken the will of the Creator God..."

Charlotte felt she had vaguely grasped the key to the Sun Divine Palace's plan.

But this led to another chilling thought.

The fall of the gods of the Holy Royal Court was likely due to the "Creator God Lord" who had seized control and devoured their Divine Positions, but if these Divine Positions still existed, then... who was it that killed the gods to seize the Divine Positions?

How did the Sun Divine Palace, or rather the Sun God Helios, get hold of these Divine Positions?

Everything in front of her eyes corroborated the various secrets Charlotte knew, and combined with a bold speculation she had previously, it gradually... pointed to a guess that was both absurd and somewhat reasonable.

Yet Charlotte did not rashly jump to conclusions.

A glimmer of light flashed in her pupils, and she had already made a decision in her heart.

She took a deep breath, then suddenly unleashed divine power, reaching for the Divine Positions on the altar.

A blood moon slowly rose, its crimson glow casting upon the land, instantly enveloping the entire shattered continent.

And Charlotte's divine power quickly shrouded the entire altar.

The light on the altar flickered uncertainly, and the offered Divine Positions flew towards Charlotte of their own accord.

However, just as Charlotte was about to seize control over both the altar and the Divine Positions, the sun... emerged.

A golden sun slowly ascended, its rays illuminating the world.

The crimson glow was quickly driven back, and high in the sky, the sun and moon shone together, standing in opposition across the sky.

And within the temple, Charlotte was blocked by a ray of golden light.

The void shattered, and a golden spear suddenly thrust forth, bursting with brilliant light, aiming for her chest while she was constrained by the altar!

The timing was impeccably chosen.

Just as Charlotte was fully engaged in seizing the Divine Positions, the sun and spear appeared almost simultaneously. In that moment, the Blood Divine Domain was instantly suppressed by the sun's radiance, Charlotte's power was greatly restrained by the altar and Divine Positions, and the spear almost bypassed all barriers!

The target... directly at the Divine Position and Divine Fire within Charlotte's chest!

But Charlotte moved almost at the same time.

The crimson divine power enveloping the altar shattered instantly, revealing a delicate, small shrine's shadow looming faintly, while Charlotte herself, as if foreseeing it, turned towards the direction of the spear.

It was Mirick's Shrine.

The illusion conjured by the shrine dissipated, revealing the truth behind it. The girl in front of the altar hadn't exerted her full strength, only the glow of the Divine Artifact Moon Dream Heart shrouded the altar.

Charlotte... had never intended to seize the Divine Positions from start to finish; she was merely using the Moon Dream Heart to seal the altar, utilizing Mirick's Shrine to create the illusion of her striking, showcasing the facade of her full effort to seize the Divine Positions!

The illusion dispersed, the facade shattered, and everything returned to reality.

The girl in front of the altar held the golden Roman Sword, her Blood Divine Power poised to strike, as if well-prepared for the sudden attack.

"Got you."

The crimson glow erupted, instantly enveloping the spear, as the Roman Sword clashed with the golden spear, unleashing terrifying power.

The ancient temple shattered in an instant, the legendary-level lingering prohibitions evaporated like paper, and the Sun believers standing guard outside the temple turned to ash in an instant, leaving only the central altar intact under the protection of divine power.

The crimson divine power swirled around the blade, transforming into a scarlet sword light, cleaving onto the spear.

The spear paused slightly, its owner stifling a sound, quickly retreating backward.

The glow of divine power receded, revealing their respective forms.

Charlotte, holding the Roman Sword, gazed complexly at the figure who had ambushed her—

A platinum divine robe, a golden sun mask, holding the Sun Divine Artifact Sun Sword.

It was none other than the Sun God Helios, whom she had "slain" before.

The glow of the Moon Dream Heart spread, enveloping Helios and completely sealing the space.

Looking at the pale golden eyes behind the golden mask, Charlotte spoke after a brief silence:

"Should I call you Sun God Helios, or... Creator God Lord Haral?"

Cracks spread across the golden mask, a product of the sword light Charlotte had unleashed.

With a soft sound, the mask shattered completely, revealing the face of the Sun God Helios to Charlotte.

Golden hair.

Golden eyes.

The handsome and majestic face identical to the Main God Statue worshipped by the Holy Royal Court.

That familiar yet unfamiliar face gradually overlapped with a certain figure in Charlotte's memory, even the true divine soul fluctuation emanating after the mask was removed matched the soul fluctuation of someone in Charlotte's memory exactly.

But the admiration and closeness once present in those golden eyes had long vanished, replaced by coldness and spite.

He... was Haral.
