Chapter 311 The Villain Lady Arrives 140

The archbishop stood in front of the altar, his voice solemn and deep: "Holy Son Aidan, you are the messenger of light and the embodiment of justice. You have spent your entire life fighting to protect this land and its people. Your sacrifice will always be remembered in our hearts. Today, we gather here to see you off. May your soul rest in peace and be in the arms of the God of Light."

As the Archbishop's prayer sounded, all the priests and believers bowed their heads and prayed silently for Aidan. Alice stood in the crowd, her heart filled with complex emotions - grief, reluctance, pride and hope. She knew that this moment of separation was inevitable, but Aidan's spirit would always illuminate her way forward.

At this moment, a warm light suddenly emanated from the altar, shrouding the entire hall in a soft glow. Everyone looked up in surprise, only to see a beam of light descending from the sky, shining directly on Aidan's body. The light was so pure and sacred, as if it was really a call from heaven.

"Look! That's the response from the God of Light!" the archbishop shouted excitedly, "Holy Son Aidan, your soul has been accepted by the God of Light!"

After hearing the Archbishop's words, everyone showed expressions of relief and emotion. They knew that the Holy Son Aidan had not really left them, and his spirit and faith would always be with them.

The funeral of Saint Son Aidan was not only a mourning and tribute to him personally, but also a baptism and rebirth for the entire Church of Light. Under the leadership of Alice, the church began a series of reforms and revival plans.

First, she strengthened the education and training of believers, so that more people could understand the true meaning and value of the belief in light. She personally compiled teaching materials, held lectures, and organized seminars, using vivid and specific examples to explain to believers the struggle between light and darkness, justice and evil. Her efforts received positive responses and support from the majority of believers, and more and more people began to re-examine their beliefs and lifestyles.

Secondly, Alice also actively advocated believers to participate in social welfare undertakings and practice the spirit of the faith of light with practical actions. She organized believers to establish charitable organizations, rescue poor families, help lonely elderly people and disabled people... These good deeds not only won wide praise and respect from all walks of life, but also further consolidated the status and influence of the Church of Light in the kingdom.

Finally, Alice also strengthened exchanges and cooperation with other religious groups and political forces. She knew that in this uncertain world, only unity and cooperation could jointly resist the invasion of dark forces. Therefore, she took the initiative to establish friendly relations with major religious groups and jointly explore how to promote religious harmony and social stability; at the same time, she also actively communicated and negotiated with the Royal Government to strive for more policy support and resource investment to promote the revival and development of the Church of Light.

In her busy and fulfilling life, Alice often thinks of the warm and determined smile of Aidan. When it is late at night, she will sit alone in front of the window, staring at the stars and thinking about the future and dreams.

"Aidan, you know what? I'm no longer the little girl who needs your protection." Alice said softly, "I have learned to be strong and brave, and to use my own strength to protect this land and its people. But no matter where I go or how much I achieve, I will never forget everything you have given me."

She took a deep breath and felt the coolness and comfort brought by the night breeze. "Aidan, your departure has made me more aware of the fragility and preciousness of life, and has also made me more determined to pursue and uphold my faith in light."

She closed her eyes and let her soul merge with the starlight, as if she could feel the warm and firm gaze of Saint Aidan looking at her. "Aidan, don't worry, I will keep going until light shines in every corner and until justice and peace become the eternal themes of this world."

As Alice's words drifted gently in the night sky, the atmosphere inside and outside the hall quietly changed. The believers of light, who were originally immersed in mourning and remembrance, gradually ignited an unprecedented anger and determination in their hearts. The sacrifice of the Son of Aidan was like a mirror, reflecting the long-term invasion and destruction of the Dark God Cult to the Land of Light. The blood feud was like a long-suppressed volcano, about to erupt.

The next morning, the first rays of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the meeting hall of the Church of Light. Alice stood in the center, surrounded by the elders, priests, and representatives from various regions of the church, their eyes flashing with unprecedented determination and resolve.

"Everyone, the departure of Saint Aidan is an irreparable pain for us, but it is also the clarion call for our awakening." Alice's voice was not loud, but it was enough to penetrate everyone's heart. "The Dark Cult, they regard life as worthless and feed on fear and despair. It's time to let them know that under the light, evil will not be allowed to run rampant!"

Elder Albert stood up. His hair and beard were all white, but his eyes sparkled with the sharpness of his youth. "Alice, I feel your determination. But we must act with caution. The Dark Cult is powerful, cunning and changeable. We need to make a careful plan to hit the target with one strike."

"Elder Albert is absolutely right." A young priest, Leah, took over the conversation. "We can start with intelligence gathering to learn about the latest movements of the Dark Cult. At the same time, we can strengthen our internal defense and training to ensure that we can quickly gather strength in the event of a counterattack."

“Not only that,” Alice added, “we also need to unite other righteous forces, whether it is the kingdom’s army or other religious groups. As long as they are willing to stand on the side of light, they will be our most solid allies.”

As Alice finished her words, the atmosphere in the meeting hall became more solemn and heated. A raging fighting spirit ignited in everyone's heart. It was a desire for justice and an angry counterattack against the Dark Cult's long-term oppression and destruction.

"The Dark Cult, those rats hiding in the dark corners, they think they can hide in the shadows forever and do whatever they want." Alice's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. Although her voice was soft, it was like a sharp blade in the cold wind, piercing people's hearts. "But today, we want to let them know that under the light, there is nowhere to hide!"

Elder Albert nodded heavily, his eyes passing through the meeting hall, as if he saw the battlefield in the distance, which was about to become the stage for the final battle between light and darkness. "Alice, your determination gives me hope. But what we need to do is not just anger, but also strategy and wisdom. We must be like hunters, patiently waiting until the best time to give them a fatal blow."

The young priestess Leah stood up, her eyes gleaming with determination. "I agree with Elder Albert's point of view, but I think we need more practical actions. We can send elite teams to sneak into the areas controlled by the Dark Cult to collect intelligence and understand their weaknesses. At the same time, we can strengthen our intelligence network to ensure that any disturbance can be grasped in the first place."
