Moving as briskly as it was wise to do, so as not to call attention to himself, he made his way to where the noise of the multitude told him that something extra was happening. He soon discovered that the excitement came from a kind of impromptu mass meeting that had followed upon the appearance of Apleon riding on his now celebrated black charger.
It was so at Babylon! Again her frightened glance travelled to the casement Then she went on: "My brother always confided everything to me. And in telling me the secret of the Emperor Apleon though exactly how he learned it, I cannot say he never dreamed that I should have any scruples about serving the Anti-christ. But I love God!
Apleon," he said, turning to the instrument. There followed a few moments exchanges on the 'phone, then replacing the receiver he turned. But his visitor was gone. "That's curious!" he muttered. "I did not hear a sound of his going, any more than I did of his coming. Uncanny, eerie, creepy, almost!" There was a tap at the door. "Come in!" he called.
Athanasius wrote: "He who worshippeth the image, in it worshippeth the emperor; for the image is his form and likeness." There is a very curious word in Habakkuk ii. 9, "Woe to him that saith to the wood, 'Awake! to the dumb stone, "Arise, it shall teach." Apleon, the Anti-christ actually qualifies himself for that "woe" of God's.
We went to our churches, our chapels, we had a 'form of Godliness, but we tacitly, and controversally, in print and speech, 'denied the power thereof. We not only made it possible, but easy 'for one man of Master-mind to assume universal dominion, and to be the object of universal worship, as Apleon, the Anti-christ, soon will be.
"Yes, but this shipping matter of which you spoke, Bob, is a Jewish affair," interrupted Bastin, adding: "For I presume, since the cargoes would be composed of the Temple parts, that it would be financed by Jewish capitalists, religionists, or what not? How then would Anti-christ have anything to do with it?" Slowly, deliberately, almost solemnly Baring replied: "Lucien Apleon is a Jew!"
Then, suddenly, swelling above the low weird music, came the voices of a score or more white-robed priests chanting: "Hear, O Israel, the Lord thy God is one God!" George Bullen's eyes were fixed upon the face of Apleon, and he noted the mocking, contemptuous smile that curled his lips at the language of the chant.
The hum of several thousand voices, as the gathered people gossipped about the image, made quite a volume of sound. Every eye was fixed on the great golden statue. It was a wondrous piece of work and the likeness of Apleon was an extraordinary one. The people who were seated far back could see only from the breast upwards. A shudder passed over our trio, as they read the blasphemy.
With a low, mocking laugh Lucien Apleon turned away from the dead form. But before he passed out of the room he did a curious thing. A Bible rested on one of the shelves of the room, he took the volume from its place, opened it at the 13th of Revelation and taking a pen, he dipped it into the red ink, and ran a red line around the 15th verse of the chapter.
Then, to the amaze and delight of the vast audience in "The Fan," out from convolutions of the central sign of the "Mark," Apleon stepped on to the platform. The false Christ was as white of face as his robe. He visibly cowered and shrank before the coming of the giant figure of the World's Dictator, as the latter strode in three long strides across the platform.
