Mystery: Two or three things between me and Tianzun God

Chapter 409: Drastic Change (3.9K)

Cathedral of Holy Winds, Jowood District.

"Lord, I repent."

In a small, dark confessional, Pallas Nigan put his hands together and confessed to the god he believed in.

It's just that in this era, in this world, no god will really listen to the meaningless nonsense of his believers. Rather than wanting to get forgiveness from the gods, it's just deceiving oneself.

No, it is more for those bishops with bad tempers.
Duke Negan's thoughts flashed through his mind, and the corners of his wrinkled mouth curled up slightly. It was obvious that he was not as pious as he thought.

"I confess that I did not lend a helping hand in time when I learned that my friends were in trouble. I confess that I allowed evil to continue to grow in the darkness when I learned about it. I confess that I did not protect the Lord's lambs and allowed them to be bullied by foreigners."

The ten-minute confession was not long, but not short either. With the ringing of the church bells, Duke Negan's confession came to an end.

“As long as you sincerely confess to the Lord and truly repent, the Lord will forgive you.”

The rough yet somewhat peaceful voice happened to be stuck after the church bell. The words were gentle and powerful, as if they had some power to soothe Pallas Nigan's heart.

“Storm above, praise the Lord!”

Hitting his left chest with his right fist, Pallas Nigan stepped out of the small and closed confessional, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Duke, what you just said is true. Did you really receive such information?"

At this time, the bishop who had just listened to Pallas Nigan's confession came over with anger on his face.

"Yes, Bishop Patul, it's absolutely true. Many of our soldiers on the front line have been sacrificed to the evil gods by those barbarians. Not only do they cut off all the protruding parts of the victims' bodies, making our soldiers suffer, but they also hold weird rituals to turn them into monsters to attack our army!"

"Now, 4 people have died for this. If this continues, not only will we not be able to spread the faith of the Lord, but even the existing churches will be in danger."

"And their slogan is to expel all foreign beliefs, and even to liquidate the missionary activities of the Seven Gods Church in the southern continent."

Pallas Nigan hesitated to speak, his words were filled with anger and sadness, and sincerity, which made the bishop who was checking the situation beside him look even uglier.

“They’re farting!!!”

He naturally knew who the "evil god" who was ranked among the top in the southern continent was. It was none other than the "God of Time and Space" who had emerged from nowhere some time ago.

The people of the southern continent had the protection of this being, so they had the capital to fight against the Seven Gods Church, but they didn't expect that the church had already made some concessions, and those greedy guys actually intensified their efforts.
As a violent organization subordinate to one of the Seven Gods, it doesn't matter if funds or some interests are damaged, but if the faith in the gods is affected, then it may not be so easy to deal with!

Could it be that the god from the southern continent is a madman, and he wants to shake the faith of the seven gods and start a war between gods! ?

At this moment, Patul remembered the most famous disaster recorded in the history of the Quaternary, the Paleness that swept across the world.

But what a coincidence, the god of death also comes from the southern continent.

"I will report this matter to the Archbishop. Please also ask the Duke to make a copy of the information you received and give it to the church. We will confirm the authenticity of the information!"

Patul suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke to Pallas Nigan with a strange expression.

"Mr. Bishop, you don't have to be so polite. It's my honor. I will go and get it myself now."

Pallas Nigan did not stop, but walked out of the church gate, got on his luxurious carriage, and nodded to the secretary standing inside.

After the four-wheeled carriage traveled several hundred meters, the Conservative Party's largest noble leader tilted his head and said in a hoarse voice:

"Do you think the Church of the Seven Gods will really be fooled by such a crude trick? If they were so easy to fool, wouldn't you demons have crawled out of the abyss long ago?"

"A lie is just a lie after all. Whether it is true or not, you will know it by verifying it."

Faced with the nitpicking of his collaborator, the blue-eyed secretary simply shook his head and looked at Pallas Negan with a sarcastic smile.

"We demons are very honest, and who told you it was fake?"

"A quarter of an hour ago, Loen, Feysac, and Intis had killed more than 40,000 people in the southern continent, whether they were men, women, young or old, or followers of the Seven Gods. It's not over yet. Maybe the number will be higher when you receive the tip."

"Faith disputes have always been an enduring topic. This not only exists among the Seven Gods, but also between the Seven Gods' churches and believers."

Hearing these emotionless words, Pallas Nigan was visibly stunned, and his eyes, which had long been cloudy and filled with desire, opened as wide as possible in astonishment.

"Isn't this fake information?"

"Are you crazy? Can't the Church of the Seven see that this is the work of you demons?"

Obviously, he cared more about whether he was exposed.

As a Sequence Six Judge, Pallas Nigan knew that everything in the mysterious world had traces to follow. From the battle traces of the Extraordinary, one could analyze their specific methods and fighting styles, not to mention the iconic authority characteristics of the gods.

However, facing the Duke's questioning, Patrick Jason Belia just waved his hand and seemed to be very indifferent.

"Heh, the ones who performed the sacrificial ceremony were the followers of the God of Time and Space, and the ones who responded to the ceremony were also the 'God of Time and Space'. What are you worried about?"

The fog that covered the sky and the sun shrouded the entire city, blocking everyone's vision. Apart from the vast expanse of white in front of their eyes, the residents of this city could not see anything more than three meters away.

"save"

A man who was running blindly, trying to find a place to hide, suddenly stopped crying for help.

The hot blood splashed on the ground, forming a long drag trail in an instant, as if there was some monster in the depths of the fog that would capture the moving prey the moment it heard the sound.

Crunch, crunch, crunch…

The faint chewing sound came from far away and got closer, as if something was whispering. The other survivors felt a chill in their hearts and their bodies trembled uncontrollably. They were even unable to pray to the gods they believed in.

They held their breath carefully, slowed down their bodies, and stood still, not daring to move an inch, fearing that the slightest sound would attract the terrifying monster deep in the fog. The world was clearly the same as it was a quarter of an hour ago, how could it suddenly become so strange?

At this moment, a clear baby cry rang out in all directions.

The baby's cry was particularly harsh in the silent environment, like a death horn, bringing endless fear to people.

"Stop, stop now, do you want to kill us!?"

The child's mother looked to be in her twenties, wearing a fashionable women's windbreaker and a small soft hat. Her overall style was more conservative like Rune.

At this time, her eyes were full of tears, and she was pleading in a low voice to comfort her child, trying to stop the baby, who was only a few months old, from crying.

But it was all too late.

An arthropod-like leg popped out from the fog like lightning. It looked like the mouthparts of some insects, or the long legs of a spider. It would make people feel disgusted and scared from the bottom of their hearts at the first sight.

This is an emotion imprinted in the collective subconscious of mankind, a unique disgust and fear towards poisonous insects.

The long arthropod legs with countless fangs and black hair came at her so fast that it left a trail in the air. But just as it was about to pierce the woman's head, a darkness quickly spread.

This darkness was like the deepest and heaviest fear in the night, infecting and melting the white mist that permeated the surroundings and the long legs that were as fast as lightning.

However, in an instant, most of this hard, long leg with arthropods was melted away by the darkness that contained destruction and disappearance, and the remaining force continued to spread rapidly towards the source of the limbs.

In the silent fog without any movement, there was no more gnawing sound like whispering.

Feeling the rapid consumption of his spiritual energy, "Eye of the Goddess" Ilia's breathing became heavy.

Although I don't know what this monster is, judging from the amount of spiritual energy consumed by its extraordinary ability, its size is definitely not small.

"Send them all to the church, and be careful not to make any noise!"

Using the released spirit to observe the surroundings again, he discovered that there were no long-legged creatures nearby. This Sequence 3 demigod couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and patiently gave instructions to the Nighthawk who was cautiously approaching.

Frankly speaking, those long legs just now did not contain divinity, and their strength was not insurmountable for ordinary Beyonders, but their speed was too fast, and even a Sequence Five Deacon would be killed instantly if he was not careful.

Where did these things come from? I can't go any further. My spiritual energy is too much. These mists seem to block my connection with the outside world. I can't contact the goddess at all.
Just as the senior deacon of the Church of Night was thinking about his next move, a terrified scream suddenly came from 300 meters ahead.

"Help, quick, help me!"

The voice was sharp and piercing, as if the person was frightened by the abnormal situation. If one did not listen carefully, one could not hear what the owner was shouting.

"I'm going to rescue them. Send a few of you to follow me. Be careful not to make too much noise."

Faced with the ordinary people's cry for help, "Eye of the Goddess" Elijah had no reason to hesitate. She quickly gave instructions to the night watchmen beside her, and then her figure flashed and a strange spirit with wings, a human body and bird legs appeared behind her.

The bird-like legs of the spirit grabbed its owner's shoulders and dragged Ilya silently towards the place where he was calling for help.

Layers of fog were melted away by the darkness. Compared to the fog with a visibility of only three meters, this bottomless darkness where nothing could be seen made the demigod feel more at ease.

"Help! Help! Please save me!"

The cries for help were getting closer and sharper, but just when Ilya was halfway through his flight, he suddenly realized a problem.

The cries for help seemed to last too long, and based on what had happened to the previous victims, it seemed that no one was able to shout out a complete sentence.

No, it's bait!

Elijah immediately thought of a possibility and hummed a harsh and chaotic song to gradually clear his affected consciousness.

But the moment she woke up, she suddenly saw that the fog that blocked her vision seemed to dim a little, as if a huge shadow had merged into the fog.

"Help!!!"

The cry for help rang out again, sharper, harsher and more distorted than before, not sounding like a human voice. It was more like an unknown, distorted language that no one could understand.

"what!!!"

Upon hearing this twisted, evil, and hateful cry that sounded like a delirium, the "Eye of the Goddess" suddenly hugged her head, let out a scream filled with pain, and fell from the middle.

She felt that something strange was growing inside her head. It was sucking her divinity and gnawing at her brain. It seemed that it would dig out her eyes and crawl out of her brain in the next second.

"what!!!"

Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong.
The dense sound of stomping on the ground like drumbeats, accompanied by the screams of the demigod, echoed in all directions. The shadow that occupied most of the field of vision grew larger and clearer.

The fog slowly dissipated, constantly changing its shape with the flow of air. At this moment, Elijah, who fell to the ground in pain and was unable to offer any resistance, finally saw clearly what this huge shadow was.

It was a monster nearly a thousand meters long, shaped like a very large egg, with half a human face on the top. Its body was pale and translucent like jelly, with corrosive pus flowing on it like magma, and a white mist that blocked everything was continuously drifting out from the corroded skin.

His dozens of strangely twisted arms were waving constantly, with long, arthropod-like legs growing on them that stretched for a thousand meters. His protruding eyes all over his body were constantly scanning the surroundings, as if looking for valuable prey.

Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong.
Hundreds of thick, long legs moved in a regular pattern, without making any sound, and were able to destroy all the buildings in its way.

What on earth is this.
After seeing this indescribable, twisted and grotesque mythical creature, the eyes of the Goddess' Eyes instantly popped open, and her body began to turn pale. The bones in her body were dislocating crazily, as if to twist her into a ball of flesh.

At this moment, a gaze dropped from a thousand meters high, followed by an indescribable roar with strong unwillingness, which instantly swept through the Loen colonial city with a population of hundreds of thousands.

In Sakya Castle, no one survived.
