Chapter 1602: Arrival Carrier, The Ceremony Ends
Randekiel is one of the seven archangels, and he definitely had dealings with Messiah more than once. And it is precisely because of a deep understanding of Messiah's stupidity and incompetence that he resolutely fell from heaven as an archangel.
For him, following Lucifer is the real glory. Kneeling under the so-called Son of Christ is nothing more than dusting one's own honor. The conflict between him and the Messiah has already reached the point of irreconcilability. He even said that until now, he still thinks about counterattacking heaven and making the so-called Holy Son Christ kneel down in front of him.
Of course, although he looked down on the Messiah, he had to admit that everything God carefully arranged for the Messiah did have its unique features.
The crucifixion's ability to kill spirits, and the attribute of leading the Advent really helped him a lot. Otherwise, there is really no way for him to surpass the contract he signed with Gu Yi under the witness of hell, and come to this world.
You know, even existences like Mephisto and Satan can be threatened by Gu Yi and sign a contract not to violate the human world, let alone something inferior like him.
He also has an agreement with Gu Yi, and even said that the agreement between him and Gu Yi is even more harsh.
Not to mention descending into this world with a real body, even intervening in the human world in the form of a projection clone is not allowed. On this issue, Ancient One may have some scruples about the Lords of hell like Satan and Mephisto, and offer them some slightly relaxed conditions. But for him, for a guy like him who is not even worthy of being her enemy, the Supreme Mage is not so easy to talk to.
Either sign a contract, or disappear from now on. Back then, the supreme sorcerer, who was at the pinnacle of his life and had the most domineering style of acting, would not offer them more conditions. For the vast majority of people, how to choose is actually an obvious thing. Although it is inevitable that there is some humiliation, compared with living, humiliation is acceptable, isn't it?
Rande Gere accepted this humiliation back then, and it also left him with a huge future trouble.
If he wanted to set foot in the world, he had to bypass this contract. As for how to bypass this contract, the cross ceremony was the only way he could imagine.
And the crucifixion ceremony cannot be opened casually. Just like the Messiah must use the body of Jesus when he came, if he wants to truly come to this world, he must find a carrier that can carry him. And above this world, under the eyes of the supreme mage, such a carrier does not exist at all.
Ordinary people simply cannot bear his terrifying power. And as one of the seven great angels, the attribute of his power also led to the existence that must be closely related to the source of angel power to become the medium of his descent.
From this point of view, the saints who once belonged to the Vatican may be a good choice. But in the final analysis, they are nothing more than mortal bodies. Even if he came to the past, the final result is likely to explode and die.
He wasn't crazy enough to risk his own life just to let himself out in the world. So although he knew about this method a long time ago, it was only today that he had the intention to take it out from under the box. In such a process, the right time, place and people are indispensable. Fortunately, everything was on his side.
The disappearance of the supreme mage created the best opportunity for him. At the same time, as the most important right-hand man of Satan, the king of hell, Randekiel can make all the evil spirits lurking in the whole world become his eyeliner.
And most importantly, that old bastard Mephisto is also finished. Without his restraint, he is fully capable of reaching out to the former guards of hell, those ghost knights. After a period of careful selection, he chose Dan Cage as his descending carrier.
There is no more suitable vehicle for his descent than Ghost Rider, the Spirit of Vengeance. You know, Ghost Rider itself is a mixture of angel power and hell power. The Dark Angel, in essence, is similar to the Ghost Rider.
As pure elemental beings born in heaven, they were inevitably contaminated with the power of hell in the process of falling to heaven. Although the power of hell is powerful, it is not enough to completely reverse their essence. Therefore, every fallen angel is actually a mixture of angel power and resistance power. There is only one exception, and that is Lucifer.
It's as if he abandoned his past name and called himself Satan. When Lucifer fell into hell, he had completely abandoned his past, and his own angelic core was completely destroyed in the embrace of hell.
This kind of dedication has been rewarded as a matter of course, and he has been favored and recognized by hell. Became the only unnaturally born hell monarch in thousands of years. And under the blessing of the power of hell, he led his army of angels invincible, conquering almost every corner of his own hell. Satan's prestige also resounded throughout the world at this time, making veteran devils like Mephisto have to agree with his equal status.
Of course, Satan is special. Apart from him, there is no second such special case. The rest of the angels, including Randekiel, can only maintain their mixture shape.
He's the most powerful of them all, so naturally, when he picks a carrier, he'll pick the most powerful one as well.
Maybe before, Johnny Blazer, who hosts the soul of Zatanos, would have been a better choice. But if it meant he had to face the oldest being among Hell's devils, he'd rather pass up the chance. Mephisto is not something he can afford. So he would rather wait, until now, until this Mephisto and Johnny Blazer are gone.
Although he lost the best choice at this time, he also had more possibilities. So there is nothing to be sorry about. Dan Cage may be a little inferior, but in comparison, he is actually qualified.
And besides, compared to the dangerous spirit of Zatanos. The spirit of Noble Kane is obviously much easier to deal with. There is no need to fight, as long as the cross ceremony is carried out, he can replace it and become the new spirit of revenge occupying Dan Cage's body. And with his personality and strength, plus the essence of Zatanos power possessed by Dan Cage, he can completely break the shackles of the past and raise his power to an unprecedented level.
This is an incomparably huge temptation, and he cannot be indifferent. Coupled with the fact that all this is related to a huge conspiracy they have planned, he naturally has no reason to give up all this.
Therefore, although Dan Cage screamed tragically, he still couldn't arouse his sympathy at all. Like a ruthless judge who sentenced the next crime, he continued to order to his subordinates mercilessly.
"Continue, carry on this ceremony!"
The angel obeyed and continued to swing the hammer. Under his actions, Dan Cage's left and right palms, and left and right soles were pierced by wooden wedges successively, and he was nailed to the cross. This made bright red blood flow from his wound. First it was blood, and then it was liquid like lava.
That was the blood of the Spirit of Vengeance. At this point, it meant that the crucifixion ceremony had officially started, and the victim had been completely bound to it. Unless he can possess the same level of power as God or Satan, it will be impossible for him to break free from this ritual.
It's a pity that even with the essence of Zatanos' power, the vengeful spirit named Norbokel still can't reach such a point. So he can only be tied to it obediently, waiting for his next fate like a lamb on a chopping board.
Next, the Dark Angel took out a crown woven of thorns, and firmly buckled it on Dan Cage's head.
The thorns of the thorns undoubtedly cut Dan Kane's forehead, allowing the lava-like liquid to flow directly from his forehead. The wailing of the Vengeful Spirit became extremely clear at this moment, because he could no longer escape from Dan Cage's body.
This is the second step of the ceremony. The blessing of the crown of thorns means the complete unity of spirit and body. No matter who your soul belongs to, no matter how special you are inside, when the spirit and body are completely united, life and death in the body will also be transformed into the level of the soul. One prospers all, one loses all.
At this time, it is difficult for Dan Cage to maintain the appearance of a human being. The unity of spirit and flesh makes him directly become a ghost rider, a burning skeleton messenger. And even though he had completely regained his power at this moment, because of the cross ceremony, he still couldn't break free from such shackles.
At this time, the angel in charge of performing the ceremony had already picked up an old bronze dagger from the tray behind him.
To say it is a dagger is actually an inaccurate statement, its true form should be a spear head. To be more precise, it should have a more famous name, that is, the Gun of Longinus.
The spear that was once used to impale Jesus could not have been better used to perform the ritual. So at the first moment when he picked up the gun, the angel pierced it through Dan Cage's side ribs without hesitation.
The spear of Longinus pierced and pulled out, and the spewing lava was like a lake of fire pouring out. This is the outflow of divinity. The Spirit of Vengeance was also howling in pain, because it was killed at this moment and began to die gradually.
At this point, the ceremony has entered the final stage, but Dekiel's sigh also sounded at this time.
"Finally, it's done. The long-lost world, I'm finally back!"
