Although the quantity may not be as large as here, it will definitely not be small either.
Among them, the nearly two hundred ordinary calamity creatures, although only of the Iron type, still require ordinary Gold type creatures to deal with them carefully due to the three characteristics of calamity.
The one here only has the identity of the Holy Son, and it seems he can't keep the situation under control.
To lure away these calamity creatures, at least one veteran golden species would be needed to unleash its full life force from a short distance away.
Only in this way will the calamity-causing creatures here mobilize their full strength.
Besides these, there are special disasters.
Nemus couldn't help but recall the Earth God Cult he had encountered before.
The Earth God Cult he encountered was a unique kind of disaster.
The aura of calamity does not only gather on living beings, but also occasionally on the environment, thus forming special regions.
In such a place, all sorts of strange and unusual things can happen.
For example, the Earth God Cult's confusion of cause and effect.
In that chaotic state, fish become fishermen, spiders become saints who peruse books, and even calamity-causing creatures that are infected by something within it are assimilated by the special region and become one of them.
Of course, other regions may not be as unique as the Earth God Cult.
Nems suspected that the Earth God Cult might be the first group to come into contact with, understand, and study the Earth Calamity.
That's why the Earth Saint was able to leave a contingency plan when he committed suicide, leaving behind a special area in that place.
Nemus wasn't sure if it was his divine aura that attracted the other party's attention, or if some other aspect of fate had led him to that place.
However, after some self-assessment, Nemus realized that he himself would find it difficult to create a similar region.
The first problem is a lack of knowledge about taboos, resulting in a weak ability to guide people through calamities.
Secondly, the content itself may exceed the permitted limits.
"At least for a Saint, this is beyond the standard." Nemus's current knowledge reserves are not necessarily higher than those of a Saint, but they are definitely not far off.
In this situation, it would be difficult for Nemes to even create a small, special region artificially.
Not to mention, like the Earth Saint, who arranges the relevant things in front of another saint, and then, a thousand years later, guides the accurate target to the region, completes the corresponding arrangements, and transmits various secret information.
"So we can only use the existing Calamity Regions." Golden-type creatures are not easy to find. Although Nemus's demon summoning can summon a high-level demon, those high-level demons are not stupid. They can sense the local atmosphere through the summoning contract.
If it's too obvious to be used as bait, none of these cunning high-ranking demons will fall for it.
Nemes quickly found a special area in the vicinity.
What Nems didn't expect was that there were actually people living in this godforsaken place.
Nemus stood to one side, unleashing the full power of the Splendid Parrot Sword to make himself invisible through illusion.
The 'external existence' characteristic is very useful, but since Nemus's main body became the Demon Lord, the identity of the Holy Son has never borrowed any power from the main body.
This level of power would leave enough traces that might not escape the eyes of those at a higher level.
Once exposed, although there may be some excuses, it is very likely to interfere with the subsequent plans.
Therefore, it is best for the Holy Son to use only his own power at this moment.
Not far away, two people dressed in furs, completely covered up, were walking through the forest with bows and arrows in hand and hunting dogs on their leashes.
They cautiously surveyed their surroundings, then quietly gathered some items before quickly heading into a cave.
That cave was located in that special area.
Nemes followed behind them, watching everything from a distance, without rashly entering the cave.
As the sun set, the Holy Son Nemus and the original body synchronized slightly, and the distinct time difference was instantly reconciled.
"The sun, time—such intricate manipulations." At this moment, Nemus strongly suspected that the divine essence of spacetime was most likely, or at least largely, held by the sun god.
"So where did the Time-Space Dragon go?" This question flashed through Nemus's mind.
Clearly, the divine structure of this world was not like this many years ago.
At least at that time, the God of Earth and the God of Time and Space existed.
But now both of these legendary figures are no longer with us.
The god of the earth was destroyed because he defied the natural order.
The Dragon of Time and Space, as can be seen from Isabella, has had its bloodline members hidden away, no longer revealing their family names.
"The sun..." The last rays of light faded, and the earth was plunged into darkness.
Chapter 506 Aura and Region
This was the first time Nemes had experienced night on Earth.
It must be said that the earth and forests are especially terrifying at night.
Nems could clearly sense a restless atmosphere.
However, the source of this restlessness cannot be found.
It's as if this nocturnal restlessness has penetrated deep into the very essence of terrestrial creatures.
"More than a thousand years ago, the effects of the sun's obscuring had been deeply ingrained in the genes of animals."
"Indeed, the stronger the power, the deeper the mark left." If Nemus hadn't known the information from back then, he would have simply thought that the beast's restlessness was just a habit.
But once that point is understood, the restlessness of these beasts becomes clear, revealing the impact of the gods' every action on the world.
The conflict between the sun god and the earth god in the past, with a small change, altered the living habits of these wild beasts that had existed for thousands of years.
The power shifts contained within this can be glimpsed even from a small part of the picture.
“God-level battles are not just about the frontal battlefield, but also about the impact and changes on the world.” Nemus only briefly touched upon the restless aura of the beast before ceasing further investigation.
The power of the gods is immense, and the traces they leave behind are difficult to erase; this is a phenomenon.
However, behind this phenomenon, there may be a hidden plan left by the sun god.
This is not impossible.
If an ordinary person notices a wild animal stirring at night, then further investigates the source of the disturbance, and even studies it in depth, treating it as some kind of trump card, nothing will happen to them.
But Nemes was different. Although he hadn't actually sat down at the table yet, his vision had already extended beyond the limitations of the pieces.
In this situation, if he touches these things that may have been left behind by other gods, he is very likely to cross the line.
As things stand, even a sleeping God of Discipline is putting so much pressure on Nemus.
A sun god who is intact and even vaguely resembles the strongest deity is even more dangerous to provoke.
Despite having become a demon lord, Nemus felt insignificant after glimpsing a trace of divine power.
He probably hasn't even unleashed one percent of his power from that one-fifth of the divine essence of discipline.
Because of the structure of numbers in this world, the higher up a person is, the more power they wield.
For example, Nemus is currently a demon lord, and with the added stats, he already has over three thousand.
Ordinary humans, such as common adventurers, are mostly Blackstone race.
Having four or five points in the score means you're considered a minor expert.
They could hardly imagine the power of the demon lord, nor could they realize that Nemus could kill them with just a breath.
This unimaginable thing can also be replaced with Nemes and gods.
Having witnessed his own insignificance, Nemus became increasingly wary.
Then they discovered that some people were bringing several people out of the cave, bound together.
At a glance, Nemus could tell that none of these people had any numerical attributes on them; they were just ordinary humans who had never undergone any cultivation.
Of course, some Black Stone species might not necessarily win if they fight them.
After observing them for a while, Nemus noticed that their equipment all had different auras.
Nems even discovered a type of gold ore used to forge top-tier weapons.
In addition, they also carry various toxic information.
These toxins are mostly harvested from certain special organisms and are highly toxic.
Even some steel-type creatures could die if they were careless and stabbed by their poisoned weapons.
What surprised Nems was that they were using this weapon to defend against whom?
The purpose of weapons is to deal with enemies.
The strength of the enemy determines the strength of the weapon.
Some of these toxins may have relatively simple sources, while others require ordinary people to risk their lives to obtain even a small amount of these toxins from special creatures.
Could it be that these people's daily tasks involve killing calamity creatures?
This is practically impossible. Apart from the weapon made of gold-grade metal, which has a certain probability of breaking through the skin of the calamity creature, their other weapons will basically just be shattered into dust by the 'force' emitted by the calamity creature during its movement.
The only reason that the gold-grade metal weapon could harm the calamity creature is that it was rushing too fast and didn't notice the weapon, thus running into it.
"If that's the case, then what are these ordinary people without any numerical values doing here?" Nemus became interested in this special region.
The language spoken by these people is similar to the language used by Nems and his group now, but it is also filled with various different accents.
However, with Nems' current abilities, he is fully capable of learning the language in a short time, then recalling all the words he had previously recorded and translating them again.
“You are dying for your people now, so please don’t resent us. If you want to resent us, resent the gods and the heavens. It is their incompetence and their sin.”
"Once you get outside the cave, think about your wives and children; they still have to live inside."
“I think you all know what kind of situation those families who were sacrificed before were in.”
"For the sake of your family, please cooperate."
These were similar words spoken by the group of people trying to persuade the people who were tied up.
These sacrificial offerings had their mouths sealed shut, and apart from the ropes binding them, they had nothing else on their bodies.
They moved quickly, erecting several pillars, and then the offerings were soon hung on them.
After doing all this, those people quickly ran back to the cave.
In the night sky, the moon resembles a unique, large sun.
Under the moonlight, something was wriggling.
“Moon Goddess…” Nemus keenly sensed some of the power within, and immediately gained some understanding in his mind.
The moon goddess is also a member of the sky pantheon and is herself a very powerful deity.
Previously, they had secretly supported demons in the abyss, plotting to seize the new demon lord.
From this, we can roughly see that the moon goddess probably has some kind of intention.
This kind of thinking is directed at no one in particular.
However, for now, this thing is advantageous to Nems.
The entire region has a strong connection with the Moon Goddess, and it is highly likely that the Moon Goddess secretly facilitated this connection.
Nemus dared not directly confront the Sun God's backup plan, nor was it suitable to act rashly in this area secretly set up by the Moon God.
But what if we get their own people involved?
Nemus couldn't help but look at the sacrifices who were being tied up.
Chapter 507 Moon Beast
Nems squinted and looked closely.
The moonlight, like insects, burrowed into their bodies.
The several bound sacrificial animals writhed and twisted wildly, as if trying to shake off the insects that had burrowed inside.
Unfortunately, none of this was of any use.
As the insects burrowed in, the people's bodies began to swell rapidly.
Then it quickly transformed into a gigantic creature.
