Chapter 255: Chapter 253 Battle Angel

Liu Shang knelt on the ground, his expression twisted as he laughed maniacally, "None of us can escape. The Angel will cleanse all the sin around us and then return to the Divine Kingdom."

Wen Wen raised an eyebrow, "You make sense, but I think you could escape while we are fighting."

He pulled out the Tie Sword, and before Liu Shang could react, he stabbed it through his waist, pinning him to the ground. Then he delivered several fierce punches to his chest.

Standing up from Liu Shang’s body, Wen Wen said coldly, "Now you can’t run away."

Then, Wen Wen turned his gaze to the Angel. Its body towered over three meters tall, a pair of fluorescent white wings spread out from its back, floating in mid-air, its face expressionless.

Wen Wen folded his arms across his chest, looking at the Angel with interest, "Tch, it really does look just like the church’s promotional paintings. Can’t even tell if it’s male or female with those clothes on. Legends say Angels are androgynous; wonder if that’s true."

Since gaining the Catastrophe Containment Facility, Wen Wen had lost all reverence for creatures that only appeared in legends.

Just as it’s hard to get a pornography censor excited about readily available material, Demon Hunters like Wen Wen find it difficult to hold any adoration for so-called Angels.

The Angel floated in mid-air, like a giant lightbulb in the night, at least in the eyes of the townsfolk, this was nothing short of a miracle.

A family that lived outside the church went out, knelt in front of the Angel, and called out its name, confessing their sins.

The Angel of Universal Light turned its head towards the family, its eyes devoid of any emotion, "You... are sinful!"

Then, pointing in their direction, it fired several small Light Spears toward the family.

Wen Wen frowned, instantly positioned himself in front of the family, scattering the Light Spears and said coldly, "They are worshipping you!"

"I am... the Angel of Universal Light... I will purge the sin... They... are sinful!"

Following that, the Angel’s wings shook, and its gigantic body charged at Wen Wen with incredible speed, bringing its sword down in a strike.

Wen Wen gritted his teeth, materialized the Catastrophe Gloves, and stood upright, completely blocking the sword strike and preventing the shockwave from reaching the family of three behind him.

Then, Wen Wen tilted his head, distorted his smile at the Angel of Universal Light, and chuckled, "Heh heh... Isn’t this indiscriminate slaughter? Playing the saint while playing the whore isn’t shameless?"

He then turned his head towards the family and said, "Are you not going to leave?"

But the family remained devoutly on their knees, showing no intention of leaving.

Wen Wen slapped his forehead, realizing that the minds of the townsfolk had been brainwashed; it was unlikely they would heed his words and flee.

So, Wen Wen knocked the family out with a kick and then snapped his fingers with his right hand. A small puppet appeared out of thin air—this puppet was the Knee Smasher Puppet.

The puppet first shot Wen Wen an unsatisfied look, then turned to the only other standing being on the field besides Wen Wen, which was the Angel of Universal Light.

It roared furiously, "How dare you look down on me. I’m going to smash your kneecaps."

The Knee Smasher Puppet fearlessly charged at the Angel but was directly kicked away, their strength seemingly mismatched.

However, the puppet hesitated for only a moment before charging again. Its strength might not be overwhelming, but its body was indestructible, and it was exceptionally tenacious.

Even Wen Wen had had his kneecaps shattered by it before finding a way to subdue it.

While the Knee Smasher Puppet was distracting the Angel of Universal Light, Wen Wen moved lightning fast, knocking out the townspeople who had come out nearby and stuffing them into a corner. This way, no one would interfere with his fight with the Angel of Universal Light.

Knocking out a few ordinary people didn’t take much time, but by the time Wen Wen had finished everything, the Knee Smasher Puppet had already been grasped in the hand of the Angel of Universal Light.

Although he was unable to destroy the puppet, it was quite easy for him to restrain it, after all, the Angel of Universal Light was much stronger than Wen Wen had been back then.

Wen Wen stood in place, with a hint of green in the Sword Qi that covered his short sword...

Umm... The color of Wen Wen’s Sword Qi was essentially determined by his constitution, which would be black and red for a Vampire Constitution, and for Yan Biqing’s constitution, it would be a lush green...

After a simple charge, Wen Wen swung his short sword sideways, sending a ripple-like green Sword Qi racing toward the Angel of Universal Light.

This Sword Qi wasn’t particularly loud, nor was it fast, but it was still one of the last five techniques of the Nameless Swordsmanship, the Rapids Style!

The Angel of Universal Light realized that this Sword Qi was no simple matter, reacting swiftly by throwing the indestructible Knee Smasher Puppet toward the Sword Qi, then slashing at it with his sword.

After being weakened by the Knee Smasher Puppet, the Angel of Universal Light easily cut through Wen Wen’s Sword Qi.

But the Sword Qi did not dissipate; instead, it struck the angel in full force, causing wounds to appear on his arms and chest, and even half of his left wing was sliced off.

Glowing white blood sprayed from the wounds, and then the angel fell from mid-air.

Wen Wen let out a breath and started to smile.

The power of the Countercurrent-Style Sword Qi was only slightly stronger than his normal Sword Qi, and its speed was not impressive either, but the Sword Qi was almost impossible to defend against!

This technique was created by the Swordsman Containment Officer while practicing swordsmanship in the rapids; its Sword Qi was like surging waves that, even if you cut down the one in front, the ones behind would still come at you from both sides!

Even though the Angel of Universal Light was already injured, Wen Wen didn’t have it easy either, his arms sore to the point of agony after executing two sword techniques in a row, despite his Vampire Constitution and the ability provided by Body Digitalization.

"This kind of move can’t be used frequently!"

When he saw the Angel of Universal Light hit the ground, Wen Wen paused for a moment, a thought flashing through his mind: if the angel lay down, would the Knee Smasher Puppet stop targeting him?

But Wen Wen soon realized he was overthinking it, as the Angel of Universal Light, being tall, still towered over the Knee Smasher Puppet even while lying on the ground...

Seeing the Angel of Universal Light fall, the Knee Smasher Puppet, hammer in hand, excitedly aimed for the angel’s knees.

One of its characteristics was that upon hitting the knee, the knee would shatter, a trait not even Disaster-Level beings could ignore!

However, just as its hammer was about to touch the Angel of Universal Light, a pristine halo of light appeared out of nowhere, deflecting the Knee Smasher Puppet away.

Immediately after, the Angel of Universal Light, now enveloped in a white barrier, rose to his feet, his eyes burning with fury at Wen Wen, as the wounds on his body began to heal gradually.

Wen Wen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he sent another Sword Qi slashing towards the barrier; the Sword Qi screeched against the barrier but ultimately vanished into the air.

"This guy has got himself a turtle shell!"

At that moment, Liu Shang struggled to his feet and looked at Wen Wen with a mocking expression, saying, "No matter how severe the injury, the Angel of Universal Light can recover, and while he is regenerating, the external barrier of his body is something you superpower users can’t break. You are still a human, after all; how could you possibly beat an angel."

Even though even if the Angel of Universal Light won, Liu Shang wouldn’t survive, he still wanted to see Wen Wen lose.

The education he had received dictated that angels were supreme, so he couldn’t accept the idea of an angel losing to a mere human. Although he was considered rational within Glory Church, this way of thinking was inescapable for him.

Indeed, true rationalists could never acquire power from Glory Church, for one of the conditions for inheriting the church’s power was absolute devotion to the creator.

At Liu Shang’s shout, the Knee Smasher Puppet, which had been unable to find an opening to attack the Angel of Universal Light, revealed a strange expression on its face, turned its head, and looked at Liu Shang.

"Gah gah gah, you dare to look down on me?"
