Chapter 458 - Black Angel
Chapter 458: Black Angel
“That’s right, that’s exactly what happened. The idea that I came up with is a very old one, but it has been proven to be effective since ancient times. That is, all beings are equal. Under this idea, not only do we have to destroy the injustice between humans and magic guides, but we also have to destroy the injustice between civilians and elites. When we pursue this concept, we will certainly encounter obstacles and setbacks, but do not doubt that we will succeed. The reason is very simple—what we do is in the interests of the vast majority of people…Do you understand what I mean?”
Morton and the others looked at each other for a while, then nodded.
Morton said, “I understand.”
Zacken said, “I accept.”
Katz said, “I believe in you.”
Allie said, “It’s up to you.”
Seeing that his initial team had finally come to an initial agreement, Lei Luo seemed very happy.
He smiled and patted his leg:
“I don’t care how much of what I’m saying do you actually understand. I also don’t care how much you agree with the idea I’m talking about. I just want to say one thing. From now on, the five of us will become complete charlatans. We must firmly believe in this idea. No matter what happens, we will never waver.”
When Morton heard this, he laughed. “Yes, Charlatan team. I’m starting to have more confidence in us. We have to give our new team a good name.”
“I’ve already thought of it. It’s called ‘Black Angel’!”
Lei Luo almost immediately followed up.
“In the Old Testament, there are a total of seven fallen angels. Other than the strongest, most beautiful, and most powerful Lucifer, there are five other fallen angels. They are Hosazler, Beelzebub, Abaddon, Mostima, and Samael. According to some mysterious researchers, the reason why Lucifer became a fallen angel was because he could not approve of God’s cruel behavior of wiping out all human beings because of his temporary hobby. Because of anger, Lucifer, who was the leader of the Angels of Light, became a fallen angel and changed his name to Lucifer. Lucifer, who had become a fallen angel, together with the other six fallen angels, led one-third of the angels in the heavenly realm to declare war on God. God ordered Michael, who had the appearance of God, to uphold justice and mercy and to lead the other angels to fight against Lucifer. Michael was very powerful, but he was vulnerable in front of Lucifer, who also had the appearance of God. At the critical moment, it was God who borrowed the body of Adam, the son of God, and worked together with Michael to defeat Lucifer.”
Most historians agreed that Lei Luo should have seen this history when he created the Black Angel Army.
This was because the Black Angel Army was in many ways consistent with the mysterious records of the ancient times.
The fallen angel, who had six pairs of shining wings, stepped on the celestial sphere map that symbolized the empire. He had two faces on his left and right, an angel-like smile on his left, and an angry face like a demon on his right hand.
The fallen angel’s hands were full of swords. The sword in his left hand shone with a warm light, and the sword in his right hand was stained with a bloody red color.

“This is the Black Angel’s military flag. The designer of this military flag is the founder of the Black Angel Army, Lei Luo himself. Other than Lei Luo, the strongest core of the Black Angel Army is six people. Together, there are seven people, which is exactly the number of the seven fallen angels…”
—
The above passage was taken from a popular historical book, the Black Angel and the Old Testament.
In fact, there was more than one book on the origin of the name of the Black Angel Army and the military flag. It could be described as a vast sea.
The reason was simple. Whether it was the name of the Black Angel or the military flag made by Lei Luo himself, they were all too interesting to write about.
Not to mention the historians who made a living by writing manuscripts, even the people who were present were shocked by the design of the military flag displayed by Lei Luo on the spot.
After looking at it for a long time, Morton asked hesitantly, “This…Isn’t it a little too cool?”
“It is indeed… but I still like it…”
Katz touched his chin and nodded with interest.
“What do you two think?” Lei Luo turned his head and asked Allie and Zacken.
“I think it has a pirate’s temperament, and I like it very much. However, I’m worried that it will annoy some moralists. After all, we will go into the mainstream sooner or later.”
When Zacken spoke, his eyes could not hide his admiration for the military flag.
In the end, only Allie remained silent.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Allie, and Allie was also looking at the military flag seriously.
After a long time, she said seriously, “Can this man’s skin be a little more delicate?”
Just like that, the name of the Black Angel Army and the military flag of the Black Angel Army were decided.
Next was the arrangement of positions. As a brand-new organization, it naturally needed a brand-new management system.
According to the discussion of the five people present, the Black Angel Army’s military structure was based on small teams as the smallest unit.
Five small teams formed a squadron, five squadrons formed a large team, five large teams formed a column, and five columns formed a lord.
The lord was the highest permanent military rank of the Black Angel Army, and each lord’s overall formation could not be larger than five times the lord-level main force formation that was currently in use.
The highest military leader of the Black Angel Army was called the General Lord.
When necessary, the General Lord could appoint a legion general to be in charge of leading some lords.
However, a legion general was not a permanent rank. Once the war ended, the legion would disband, and the legion’s general had to hand over the military authority.
Without a doubt, the position of General Lord could not be taken by anyone other than Lei Luo.
As the fleet was still very small and could not even reach a full column, there was no commander. All the fleets were directly under Lei Luo.
As an outstanding financial director, the position of financial director naturally belonged to Morton.
Considering that the fleets that started were brought by Katz, it was easier for him to communicate with these soldiers. Hence, it was easier for him to offend them.
Hence, Katz became the most important director of the Military Justice Department in the entire group.
Zacken was a very smart pirate. Back then in the Grizzly Pirates, his main task and specialty was not fighting but gathering and analyzing intelligence.
Hence, Lei Luo appointed Zacken as the director of the Intelligence Department.
When everyone else’s positions were arranged, Allie felt inferior, and she lowered her head to conceal it.
