It connected his soul and flesh.
The soul and body that were once intimately intertwined are now tormenting each other.
The soul constantly drives changes in the body, while the soul is constantly damaged by the body.
“Nems!!” Gotthard’s soul roared.
The next moment, however, a large amount of black and red stuff poured into his soul.
At that time, Nemus was infused with a large amount of divine power, forcibly modifying his soul.
At this point, it was natural for Gotthard to use the blasphemous and corrupting power of the demon.
This force continuously propelled Gotthard's transformation, and in the process, his body was also affected and changed, gradually melting into the outer layer of his soul to form a liquid substance.
And then...
Nemes personally mobilized the power of faith from the fictional agreement and poured it into Gotthard's body.
Then, the structure of its body is artificially created.
The next step is to communicate with the divine realm, invoking its guiding light to illuminate the completed body and send it into the divine realm.
Then you enter the Angel Pool and receive energy from it, which will raise your value to one thousand.
Now Nems can replace it with letting it fall into the abyss.
However, Gotthard will still be useful in the future, so there's no need to send him in; it would be troublesome if he came out later.
So Nems omitted that step.
While activating the "Soul of Life" to create an artificial soul, it was injected into the body of this "Praying Demon".
This method is used to increase the opponent's stats.
These artificial souls, in a symbiotic manner similar to the original Berserk Accessory Type IV, burrowed into Gotthard's soul, completely undermining Gotthard's self-awareness.
Gotthard was then forced to passively watch as his soul was corrupted, polluted, and controlled, obediently standing behind Nemus along with his newly reconstructed body.
Demon unit – Prayer Demon complete!
Seeing the obediently controlled Prayer Demon, Nemus knew that Gotthard's self-awareness had not yet been destroyed.
"Let's go, let's take action now and completely conquer the Azure Whale!"
Nems said that all the members of the fictional agreement then went from a state of infiltration to a state of full-scale war and began to eliminate and control all church forces.
During this process, the Prayer Demon Gotthard was the main force!
Chapter 467 Total Defeat
A huge black demon flew into the town from afar.
The residents of Baiwei Town remained eerily silent upon witnessing this scene.
Its pair of bat wings, which blot out the sky, cast a shadow that completely covered the town.
Three days have passed since the fictitious agreement launched its full-scale attack.
During these three days, the Discipline Church could not be said to have suffered a complete defeat, but it could only be described as a series of setbacks.
In just three days, Qiquan City fell, and Baiwei Town was about to fall as well.
Most of the Azure Whale region is engulfed in a war between a fictitious agreement and the Discipline Church.
Firstly, in large-scale battles, the lack of support from other floating whales and the apparent absence of their own gold-level power severely damaged the morale of the church and the people.
Secondly, fictitious agreements are extremely adept at propaganda.
Wherever they go, they distribute a large number of flyers in advance.
The flyer simply and clearly conveyed a message to everyone.
That is, the fictitious agreement is intended to occupy Azure Whale with the long-term goal of building Azure Whale.
Therefore, no one needs to worry about falling into the abyss.
Secondly, the brochure also provides a very clear message: in this process, the fictitious agreement will break the supernatural monopoly, thereby making most of the cultivation knowledge public.
Furthermore, any nobleman who dared to defy the fabricated agreement during this process would have all their property confiscated.
These assets would be used under a fictitious agreement to build schools.
Any minor can enter school to learn extraordinary knowledge.
And as long as you graduate, you're guaranteed a job.
If you perform well enough, you may receive a reward from Lord Nemus, and thus gain a favor.
It is said that once a gift is bestowed, even a mediocre person can become a genius.
Then completely change your life!
This publicity campaign was very extensive, and many people volunteered to come forward.
They are said to be members of a fictitious agreement, within which they learned knowledge that the nobility and the church would never open to them.
And with this knowledge, they are fully capable of achieving a better life.
In this situation, although most people still do not trust fictitious agreements, their instinctive resistance to them has diminished considerably.
That's why Baiwei Town is in such an eerie silence right now.
"What's going on with that demon?!" A female priest holding a book looked at the huge demon flapping its wings and approaching from afar, her eyes filled with an unshakable gloom. She was Amy, who often followed Gotthard.
Gotthard was gone and never returned, followed by a series of attacks on the church by people with fabricated agreements.
The formidable whale-man army charged to the front and easily breached the city wall's defenses.
Subsequently, a large number of Iron Man-type fictional beings led the Berserkers into street fighting.
Their uncanny telekinetic interference provided them with a significant advantage in urban warfare.
Besides the fictional agreement, there are also many swordsmen who play a significant role in the process.
With the sword of destiny, they overwhelmed most of the clergy in sheer numbers.
In the process, the defenses organized by the church were quickly broken down.
Many subsequent counterattacks were also repelled by the fabricated agreements.
"Why was the church's intelligence leaked so thoroughly? All the teleportation arrays on the Azure Whale were either controlled or completely destroyed. Why would there be such a mole within the church?!" Amy was also on the verge of collapse.
They lost each and every battle inexplicably.
First, they lost the initiative, and the flow of information throughout the entire process was basically paralyzed.
Before many people could react, they were poisoned or under the spell and lost their ability to resist.
By the time the nobles in the city realized what was happening and began preparing to use their hidden strengths and unleash their Gold-level power, it was already too late.
The monster has descended...
Seeing the demon rapidly approaching, Amy immediately gave the order.
Countless spells prepared by the priests were unleashed upon the enormous demon.
However, the final result was minimal, only creating some scratches on the demon's scales.
"Is there really no way?" Amy bit her lip, already anticipating the problems she was about to face.
Once Tailwind Town falls, and with all teleportation arrays malfunctioning, the Church's support will only be able to be provided through the mating of Azure Whales.
The inability to control Baiwei Town indicates that this last channel for receiving support will also be monopolized by the fictitious agreement.
At that time, the entire Azure Whale will truly be shrouded in the shadow of Naimus!
That enormous demon perfectly matched people's impression of demons; its strength and performance definitely indicated it was a high-level demon.
In the previous battle, he withstood many gold-level attacks and killed a gold-level priest who had been forcibly awakened.
If Lord Lotus hadn't also been in Gas Spring City, they probably wouldn't have been able to seize the gas boat and safely evacuate from Gas Spring City.
However, Lord Lotus seemed to sense some kind of danger and told them to leave quickly while he stayed behind to cover their retreat.
Then, they lost contact as well.
Now, this enormous demon has come to attack the city, but Lotus is nowhere to be seen. They have gathered a great deal of power from Tailtail Town, but their attack is less than a scratch.
Everyone had begun to despair.
Throughout the entire process, the Holy Son, who was the Grand Master, disappeared without a trace, Gotthard never returned, and Lotus disappeared during the war.
The enemy, however, possesses a colossal demon that seems virtually invincible.
The giant demon did not launch a direct attack on Tailtail Town; instead, it flapped its wings and landed in the newly established church district.
At this moment, Amy and the other surviving priests saw that there were many people from the fictional agreement on the body of the giant demon.
The sight of Nemus standing atop the demon's head, in particular, made many people's eyes widen.
“A fictional demon!” Amy glared fiercely at Nemus, the man she had once ‘looked down on’ and whom she considered a coward who had hidden away in Tailtail Town.
The other party was extremely indifferent at this moment, coldly looking at the various clergy below who were preparing to resist.
But the next moment, Nemus seemed to think of something, and then placed his palm on the devil horn next to him.
The enormous demon then began to struggle frantically.
A painful, desperate roar escaped its mouth.
"Nemus!!!"
"Amy, run!!" These two short sentences left Amy completely stunned, and she was plunged into utter despair.
Although the voice had changed, some of the underlying elements, such as the syllable transitions, were still very familiar to Amy.
That's why Amy simply couldn't accept that her revered Lord Gotthard had been turned into a demon!
Their inner fighting spirit completely collapsed.
Then, the fabricated agreement launched a full-scale attack!
Chapter 468 The New Era of Azure Skies
"Miss Amy!"
Standing under attack, Amy was now in despair. She had no intention of resisting and her faith had collapsed.
But the next moment, someone rushed over from the side, pulled her away, and saved her.
It was Mocania from the Arbitration Team who saved Amy.
His entire body was radiating a peculiar transformation as he carried Amy through a barrage of attacks.
He exudes a distinct demonic aura, and jade-like arms extend from his body, striving to save as many people as possible.
He would occasionally look up at the Nemus on the giant demon's body.
Nemus made no move and simply let the others in the fictitious agreement fight the clergy.
"I lost." Mocania gritted his teeth, knowing that as a mere Iron-type, he was of no use at this moment.
He was an ordinary boy who was saved by Isabella when he was on the verge of death, and the demon 'Little Bee' was sealed inside his body.
Then, he joined the referee team, gained the favor of the senior members, and gradually began to demonstrate his talents.
However, both Isabella, who saved him, and the senior who valued him, were killed by Nemus in the Battle of Tailtown.
From that moment on, he vowed to kill Nemus and avenge Isabella and the old man.
However, in just six months, Nemus had become a demon lord.
Although he was promoted to the Steel type and his stats improved rapidly, it was still not enough.
"We can't give up. We have to survive and grow little by little."
"The Church will not abandon the Azure Whale. As long as we live, we will surely receive support."
"Trust in the church, trust in God!" Mocania said, not only to comfort Amy but also to encourage his own beliefs.
It can be predicted that the situation between the church and the fictitious agreement will be completely reversed in the future.
From now on, the Fictitious Agreement will be the legitimate church on the entire Azure Whale's back, while their Discipline Church will be reduced to the cult-like role it once was.
