Chapter 316: God’s Chosen People, Land of Canaan

“A demon has appeared to stop Christ!”

“It looks even more horrible than in classical paintings. To think they actually eat people alive, as well as their souls.”

“I’m going to be a vegetarian for the next two days!”

“Demons being represented as friendly creatures in modern media is a huge lie.”

“I don’t know if there might be succubi among demons. I might be afraid of being eaten by demons, but I wouldn’t mind being drained by a succubus. They would definitely like virgins like me.”

“What is the demon saying? My scalp is tingling even if I’m behind the screen. Could this be the language of demons? What a horrible thing.”

“……….”

The internet was on fire.

The appearance of the demon made it impossible for people to question Christ, especially when it displayed enough strength to eliminate a small modern army. It was clearly stronger than imagined as tanks and armored vehicles were reduced to molten metal under the heat of its flames.

Moreover, many people thought that there might be an endless number of demons in hell and billions of angels in heaven. In the past, even the most religious doubted that Earth could accommodate so many creatures, but if the world was larger than they imagined, then everything seemed logical.

If there were truly legions of demons, then perhaps they could instantly flood the entire Earth. Not long ago, the Celtic god alerted the world of the existence of evil gods. This instantly caught the attention of many countries and top government officials. At this point, the government felt that his words might not be lies.

However, the people of Earth did not know that although there were many demons in the Abyss, there were only a small number of balor demons. Relatively weaker demons could be killed by modern firearms, but it would take some time due to their innate physical resistance.

……

The Intelligent Brain’s warning had cut short Louie’s plan. The space-time wormhole in Dragon City could never be exposed. As Earth was now finally bearing fruits for Louie, he couldn’t accept any interruptions to his plans.

And so, although the Intelligent Brain gave him a buffer of twelve hours, Louie still decided to wrap things up quickly, in six hours at most. Fortunately, his plan was almost completed.

Somalia had the longest coastline in Africa and shared an adjacent coastline with Kenya. Louie had originally intended to go deep inside Somalia and convert the citizens into his believers, but now because of time constraints, he could only choose the second-best option which was to establish a holy land at the intersecting borders.

‘Plans can’t catch up with change after all.’

Louie sighed. Picking up his pace, he led his 100,000 disciples and crossed the land ravaged by the demon. He reached the edge of the African coastline. When Christ and the disciples had left, the intelligence officers of various countries who had been lingering nearby began to rush out and impatiently collected the remains of the demons that had been scattered on this plain.

This was a demon, a creature that did not belong to any of Earth’s current known creatures. It was also a creature of myths so its flesh and blood must have hidden many secrets. If they could crack these, they might make huge developments in bio-engineering. It might even be possible to turn it into a source of power.

Researchers from all countries were waiting eagerly for the flesh and blood to be sent to their domestic research institutes, ready to study them with great enthusiasm.

However, their research would end up futile. The human genetic map hadn’t even been completely understood yet, so how was it possible for them to easily study demons, an extraordinary species that was far beyond humans. It must also be known that demon genes did not have a double helix structure, making them completely different from any known living creature. Even with technology on the level of the Terran civilization, they wouldn’t be able to unlock all its secrets. That said, it was still inevitable that they would gain a wide range of insights that could progress the field of human biology.

As for studying the power of the demon, they wouldn’t be able to even touch upon it, because a demon’s power was given by the Bottomless Abyss, and Earth did not have such an existence.

Along the coastline, Christ stopped in his tracks for there was a ten-thousand-foot cliff in front of him, and there was no more way ahead.

“Here, this is your new home, the sacred Canaan.”

Christ pointed with his hand distantly to the land and the sea and said in a particularly peaceful voice.

The disciples were puzzled and wondered what was so special about this place, but now, people had long ceased to have any doubt of Christ’s words. Their faith was even more firm. Since Christ said that this was the holy land of Canaan, then this was the holy land of Canaan. As for the fact that there was nothing now but wilderness, it did not matter. Originally, Israel was also a barren wilderness that was built up by human hands.

Among the disciples were the patriarchs of the three Christian denominations, as well as many rich people, who were already thinking of spending their money to build a human city here. The Pope also believed that they could collect a lot of money in donations to develop the holy city of Christ.

The Israelites had always called themselves God’s chosen people who had been led by the prophet Moses out of Egypt to the land of Canaan, but in the eyes of the people today, Christianity was orthodox while Judaism was a heretical sect.

The very personal descent of Christ proved that the Lord and the Messiah were equal beings.

If this place became the new Israel, wouldn’t they be the newly chosen people of God? Perhaps the Lord had abandoned Israel and was looking for new people to proclaim His ways.

The most depressing and painful thing now for the Jews of Israel was that they were surrounded by many countries with the Islamic faith, but by relying on the unity of the Jews and support from the West, they resolutely occupied the sacred land with great military and technological strength.

But the coming of Christ had almost denied their fundamental traditions and doctrines. This would naturally encourage their enemies to move against them. Even western support would go down because most Western countries were at least nominally Christian. How could they support Israel and take the risks of being called pagans?

The Chinese old man and the Japanese onmyouji had implied that the mystical realm was a confrontation of cultures. Their words were proven like a prophecy, and now the relationship between the nations of Earth had become more complicated. It wasn’t only a battleground of ideologies anymore.

Countries that once had an excellent relationships were likely to become tense because of the differences in culture and faith. Countries that once had a bad relationship might also become close brothers due to similarities in culture and faith.

The various gods and mysterious forces plated by Louie had finally caused a great impact on Earth, and that was to create a battlefield of culture and faith.

Under the watchful eyes of the people located all over the world, Christ suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the Indian Ocean.

At the point of his finger, the seas began to boil and the earth trembled!
