Downs learned everything the church knew about demons and spent a long time talking with Kurog.

Ultimately, they gained insight.

That is, Towns is actually very suitable to be a Discipline Knight.

From the very beginning when Kurog's abilities were revealed—they could endure pain and then pass that pain on to others.

In essence, this is a kind of precept.

Because they endured pain, they gained the ability to manipulate it.

Towns then asked Poole.

Although Poole embarked on the path of whale-like transformation, he initially possessed similar traits.

For example, the characteristic that Nemes obtained from Poole through the commandments of redemption was the nature of suffering.

As Poole's faith resonated with him, he awakened to these qualities within himself, which even coalesced into a unique characteristic.

At that time, whenever Poole suffered pain, his body would gain the power of pain, and then his body would be strengthened.

The pain-related ability that Downs obtained from Kurog is to endure pain himself and then release it, causing others to suffer excruciating pain as if cursed.

According to Nems, the reason they all share a similar nature related to pain is likely related to their environment.

At that time, the village of Backfin had been under the control of the old priest with bloodline magic for twenty years.

Over the past twenty years, the village's population has not changed much, and it's possible that Towns and Poole are related by blood.

In this situation, it's normal for the two people to have similar traits.

After Towns and Poole discussed traits related to pain, Towns had a general direction.

A thick green fog spread.

The fog spread rapidly; even from Mocania's perspective, the green fog was quickly enveloping the surroundings.

Meanwhile, Towns' subordinates also appeared in other directions.

Four fictional beings, two whalemen and three swordsmen.

Together they attacked and forced Mocania into a difficult position.

Even if Mocania were incredibly fast, it wouldn't be able to escape the encirclement immediately.

The next moment, the green mist spread over.

During this process, Mocania did not sense any particular change.

Just like this green mist, it's just a kind of mist.

With countless limbs spreading across her body, Mocania alone created the feeling of a huge crowd.

Each of these limbs is like a weapon, hard yet flexible.

In the midst of the swings, he defended against the whaleman's attacks, which involved shifting weight, as well as the spells cast by several swordsmen.

However, what Mocania was most wary of were those fictional characters.

The thoughts of these four fictional beings all possess a special power, capable of interfering with external things with an invisible force.

These forces are invisible and intangible, and are easily overlooked.

If Mocania hadn't gained the ability to sense danger because of that stone, she would have suffered greatly under these psychic attacks.

Even in this situation, his body was still attacked by those psychic powers that bypassed his physical defenses.

A tremendous force struck Mocania, causing cracks to appear on her body, making her resemble a ceramic doll.

Mocania created a new 'skin' on the outside of her body.

In this way, Mocania is able to withstand most of the attacks.

At that moment, Mocania discovered something.

These skins are designed to mimic his own outer shell, so they are also connected to his skin.

Therefore, when it is broken, your own skin will also feel pain after being stretched.

But now, that pain has disappeared.

It was as if they had never existed.

However, when Mocania raised her hand to look, she could see that the original skin beneath the sloughed-off skin fragments on her arm was covered with red marks.

Clearly, the damage still exists; only the pain has disappeared.

"The demon inside the other party's body can be basically confirmed to be the demon of pain."

"So this is a way of utilizing the properties of pain?" Mocania wondered.

I've never seen Towns use this move before; perhaps it's something he's only recently acquired.

We've only explored the initial mechanisms; the key lies in the subsequent ones.

What will Downs do with this pain? Will it be, as before, accumulate to a certain point and then be released like a curse to completely crush him?

Or is there some other change?

Mocania's mind was racing at that moment.

At that moment, only one thought remained in his mind: defeat Towns!

At this moment, Towns had only one thought left: to kill Mocania and prove himself to Lord Nemus!

The two men's beliefs collided at that moment.

Then, driven by his conviction, his body charged toward the other person.

"Lord Nemes!!!" Downs shouted, his whole body trembling violently at that moment.

The pain contorted his face, tears and snot streaming down his face, and he was on the verge of collapse.

The moment the realm of pain was formed, all the pain within its range converged upon him.

This constraint under the rules allowed Towns to reach a certain extreme in an instant.

Characteristic - 'Extreme Suffering': Fully unleashes the potential of both existence and non-existence, while simultaneously evolving all senses to perceive the world with several times the efficiency!

Chapter 489 Desire is directed at Lord Nemus!

At this moment, Downs' perception finally broke through its limitations, and his observation of the world now surpassed that of Mocania.

In his perception, everything slowed down.

The dust kicked up by my running bounced in the air at a snail's pace, and the movement of the air became a tangible change in airflow at that moment.

Towns' speed also increased significantly because his potential, whether he had it or not, was unleashed.

"I see. Your perception has also undergone some kind of change."

"That's why I'm always a few steps behind you in everything." Towns' thoughts raced, and then the green flame in his hand quickly condensed into a ball of black flame, which carried Towns as he crashed into Mocania.

Mocania, in an instant, also confirmed Towns' power.

Use pain to rapidly enhance everything about yourself.

"If I get hit, I'll most likely die..." The thought flashed through my mind.

Mocania contemplated her own impending death.

It must be said that Towns' breakthrough this time was extremely impressive.

He has great desires, and to realize these desires, he must have great perseverance.

Pain is a trait he shares with Kurog. After learning from Poole how he uses pain, Downs uses it to construct corresponding rules, which then form the Pain Domain, further promoting the emergence of the ultimate form of pain.

Only by enduring the bitterest hardships can one rise above others.

During this process, Nemes also provided some details about the Transmutation system, which enabled Towns to build this Transmutation ability to its current state.

Using the surrounding power of pain, Downs entered a state of extreme pain that could last for three seconds.

The pain caused to the outside world during those three seconds will not cause pain to others, but will instead amplify Towns' pain through the connection, prolonging his peak performance.

Under these circumstances, Towns' strength has slightly exceeded the limitations of the Iron Man race.

After all, Discipline is a top-tier attribute of the Transmutation type. If used well, it has the potential to fight against opponents of higher levels—referring to the state of extreme suffering. Downs could exchange blows with individuals who had just entered the Gold rank, but would then be killed.

However, Mocania is not a Gold type; he is not even at the extreme value of the Steel type, currently only reaching the seventy-something level.

He was acutely aware of the danger of death.

However, Mocania had no regrets whatsoever.

In that situation, he was surrounded and attacked; any retreat would have been suicide.

This is a feeling that arises from within, from the heart.

Mocania chose to trust her gut feeling.

At that very moment, the last trace of resistance that Little Biscuit showed to him disappeared from Mocania's body.

The qualities of both merged perfectly in that instant, and then quickly formed a single characteristic.

Characteristic - 'Destiny Doll': Can condense a doll with some power of destiny, which possesses a portion of its own future abilities.

Towns threw a punch, his fist engulfed in black flames.

The countless arms that had gathered in front of Mocania all shattered into fragments.

He thought this punch would pierce through the arms of these puppets and kill Mocania with one blow.

However, just as the fist was about to touch Mocania, a special doll floated out from Mocania's body.

His body was agile and nimble, and he stretched out his arm to block Towns' fist, taking it head-on.

The doll that emerged from Mocania's body was petite, with skin as white as porcelain, and its face resembled Mocania in five parts and the demon Xiaobi in five parts.

There were also some small, orange-yellow scales on his face.

The man's feminine features possess a certain inexplicable charm.

Yet this petite doll possesses terrifying power at this moment.

Towns could feel the pain in his fist; the opponent's strength was immense, definitely not just that of the Steel type.

Besides, the opponent's speed and reaction ability are no slower than his current speed; on the contrary, they are exceptionally fast.

"Where did this kid get his luck? He actually managed to break through in the middle of battle?!" Downs was somewhat incredulous.

His breakthrough was due to his long-term research, discussions with similar individuals, and guidance from Lord Nemus.

And what about Mocania? She had nothing before, and suddenly she broke through. Does that make sense?

Regardless of whether it's reasonable or not, the most urgent task now is still to keep fighting.

His state of extreme pain can only last for three to five seconds. Judging from the current situation, if he cannot create greater pain after five seconds, he will exit the state.

Conversely, Mocania's special doll does not appear to have any time limit for use.

In other words, his death was imminent in five seconds.

Under the influence of pain, more and more change-related powers fell into Downs' body due to the Pain Commandments.

His power ceiling has been expanded once again.

Towns could even sense that if he activated the Pain Limit state a few more times, he might be able to broaden his path to becoming a Golden Seed under such circumstances.

If the resources can keep up, he will have no problem becoming a gold-producing species.

However, Towns was not thinking about this problem at all at that moment.

He had only one thought in mind: to fully perceive the flow of his own power and the flow of his enemy's power.

How to defeat Mocania.

"I've found it!" A flash of inspiration struck Downs.

They then quickly found a way to break the deadlock.

"A puppet is just a puppet after all. There's a difference between him and Mocania." This thought flashed through his mind, and before he could think through the specific plan, Downs' instincts began to kick in.

"Not bad." Nemus laughed as he watched this scene.

Compared to the others under his command, Towns seems somewhat invisible.
