Chapter 373: Chapter 229 Lynn… Hug Me
Silent Church, Moonlight Ceremony Hall.
Staring at the guests with varied expressions, Sister Gretel, who hurried over, was also somewhat puzzled in her heart, but still maintained composure on the surface, looking very serious.
Goddess’s poor condition was something she had long been aware of.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been in such a rush to find a new vessel for the Divine Birth.
Even so, she would never believe that under the watchful eyes of the gods at an occasion like Glostit, the Goddess would encounter a crisis related to the Demon Clan.
More importantly now was to maintain the confidence of the guests and believers present, to avoid triggering a chain reaction.
One misstep could lead to a major public relations crisis.
“Please, everyone, remain calm,” Sister Gretel said aloud, bearing this in mind, “The Goddess’s consciousness is about to descend, and regarding the mysterious revelations that you have all witnessed, Holy Daughter will personally address and resolve your doubts after the conclusion of the Moonlight Holy Scripture.”
Hearing the nun’s words, the guests in the ceremony hall looked at each other in disbelief.
Regardless, the shadow of the Demon cast upon the moon was not an illusion, and the intense malice that radiated from it filled them with dread.
As sworn enemies, the term “Demon” was a taboo field to them, something utterly untouchable.
The appearance of such an ominous sign on the Bright Moon, which was supposed to symbolize nobility and sanctity, inevitably led to overthinking.
Meanwhile, the clergy from other churches, including the Heavenly Principle Church and the Fertility Church, were discussing in low voices with twinkling eyes, as if they had grasped an excellent opportunity.
Noticing the slight restlessness in the crowd, Sister Gretel furrowed her brows.
She cursed in her heart.
Although she didn’t know what had happened during the Divine Moon Gap, how could there have been a mistake this time, when so many past Moonlight Ceremonies were flawless?
Without a second thought, it must be related to the dirty consciousness harbored within the Goddess’s shell.
With that thought, she took a deep breath.
But before Sister Gretel could say anything else to the crowd, an abrupt crisis disrupted her original plan.
From beneath them, a roar as if the heavens and earth were collapsing thundered up, sweeping through the entire Silent Church like a storm, causing collective panic among the people as if facing an apocalyptic catastrophe from the days of human ignorance.
The earth shook, bodies trembled, web-like cracks appeared on the surface of buildings, and they collapsed with a thunderous crash.
No, this was far more terrifying than that!!!
Even after the event, not just the Silent Church and nearby districts, but the whole of Glostit would use the word “doomsday” to describe the fear they felt that night.
Among the crowd, Ivyst noticed an unprecedented anxiety on the little dog’s face in Eleanor’s arms, and even a faint glimpse of evil intent. It was as though she suddenly realized something, her expression changing dramatically as she instinctively stood up.
Realizing that her little dog might be facing an unprecedented crisis, she felt a surge of panic inside her.
No matter how cold she seemed on the outside, the passionate and twisted feelings she had for Lynn were eternally inextinguishable in her heart.
At that moment, the little dog in Eleanor’s arms suddenly barked, then quickly struggled out of her embrace and dashed into the chaotic crowd.
“Lynn! Where are you going?!”
In the panic, Eleanor wanted to get up and chase after her.
However, Ivyst stopped her action.
“Aphia, take her out of here.”
Princess stood up slowly, her expression resolute as she looked in the direction where the little dog had disappeared.
A sudden instinctual intuition came over her, telling her that perhaps by following it, they could find where Lynn was.
Can human power reach an infinite realm?
After all, descriptions such as “infinite” are inherently intangible.
However, with the boost from his core characteristic, Lynn dared to make such a recklessly brave wish.
It was precisely because he understood the rules of the Wish Jar that he dared to make a move that would seem foolish in the eyes of others.
You see, even a Level 0 Sealed Object cannot fulfill human wishes without limits.
Or to say, most wishes, like “endless money,” “eternal life,” “becoming the most beautiful person in the entire world,” are impossible to achieve.
Just the point of “eternal life” alone is not even achievable by the Divine.
However, when the Wish Jar was originally created, it was given the foundational logic that “any and every wish must be fulfilled.”
Because while human greed is infinite, the capacity of their vessel to contain desires is not.
It’s like that ancient Emperor who wished for “eternal life” and the Wish Jar transformed him into an undying, writhing mass of flesh.
Although it still couldn’t achieve true immortality, wasn’t it because his physique as a “human” was too frail?
In other words, if the wisher makes a wish that is outside the rules or utterly unachievable, the Wish Jar won’t refuse it; instead, it will fulfill the wish in the most warped way possible as a kind of “prank.”
Thus, when Lynn was filled with extreme rage, he wished for “infinite power” from his core characteristic.
