The three of them, being of the Golden Clan, faced two beings in the sky, with a very low margin for error.
If you get involved and make a mistake, it's basically a death sentence.
However, the three of them did do something, though.
At this time, doing nothing and placing one's hopes on the angel Nai would be irresponsible to one's own life and to the church.
No matter how sacred Nemes' image may be at this moment, no matter how much 'hope' the image of the angel may have given to many people.
However, they all need to understand one thing: Angel Nai is the enemy.
The battle between the angel Nai and the twin demons is nothing more than tigers and wolves fighting over food.
The tiger had its eye on all the meat, but the wolf wouldn't allow it.
As for them, they are that piece of meat.
Even if Angel Nai wins, they will still be targeted next.
Therefore, the best solution is...
Kill them both!
Chapter 379 The Descent of the Saint
"What's Moritorus's situation now!" Killieman couldn't help but look at Moritorus, who had been brought over by Saint-Nai earlier.
At this moment, Moritorus's expression was constantly changing.
One moment his face was resolute, the next it turned into a kind of fanaticism.
Then came various changes.
In this situation, a number of forbidden auras emerged from him, preventing Moritulus from truly using the Saint's Secret Spell.
“No, the forbidden aura on his body is too strong. With multiple forbidden elements combined, even a saint would find it difficult to restore his state to calm in a short time,” Gotthard said.
He was the taboo hunter chosen by the Church of this generation, and only he had the best right to speak about the situation in Moritulus.
The church will select some contemporary golden seeds, ensuring they will not be tempted by taboos, and then teach them some knowledge related to taboos.
To ensure that when taboos arise, the church is not helpless and can find a way to resolve them.
Gotthard was one of them.
“He originally possessed the sin of ‘fusion,’ which was triggered by the sin of ‘corruption’ just now. Both forbidden sins were tainted and triggered, and it seems that some forbidden power was added to him afterward, making the situation even more complicated…” Gotthard made his judgment.
Then Gotthard squinted, his whole body radiating a divine light, and the power of faith was also drawn to him, with a special life force surging from his body.
This life force and the power of faith combined to form a sacred object, like a dagger, which pierced into Moritulus's body.
However, the divine power on that sacred blade quickly extinguished, and a black aura even rushed from Moritulus's body along the connection to Gotthard.
However, upon contact with Gotthard, a certain power emerged within Gotthard's body.
Thus, that taboo, like water without a source, was shattered.
Nevertheless, Gotthard could not easily attempt to resolve Moritorus's situation.
With reinforcements yet to arrive, their only hope lies with the Saint.
Once the saint fails to be summoned, the two will determine a victor before reinforcements arrive.
Then the Twin Demons would sacrifice hundreds of thousands of people in Qiquan City to open the Gate of the Abyss.
If Angel Nai wins, he is also very likely to destroy the church's teleportation array, thereby freeing the Azure Whale from the church's control.
After all, judging from the current situation, he seems to have gained the support of the Azure Whale and has a foundation for independence.
If Angel Nai were to win, and then completely shut down or destroy all the teleportation arrays on the back of the floating whale, and then drive the floating whale to some remote area, then it would be no different from losing a floating whale.
Therefore...Guilliman absolutely cannot accept this ending.
Compared to them, Lotus was even more unable to accept this.
He could give up his revenge on Jianna for the sake of the bigger picture, but when Jianna had the potential to become the ultimate winner, Lotus felt extremely uncomfortable.
“I’ll do it. The recall decree should restore him to a certain state. At that time, you can intervene in the forbidden technique and make him use the Saint’s Secret Spell!” Lotus immediately said.
"Are you sure?" Guilliman asked. Although he was not a Forbidden Hunter, he knew that in this situation, forcibly using secret techniques to deal with the forbidden would inevitably touch the forbidden as well.
In this situation, although one will not be immediately entangled in taboos, not only will it require the power of a saint to cleanse it in the future, but it will also require constant restraint, making everything extremely troublesome.
Even a single misstep can bring disaster to the family, as seen in the Dartmenley family.
Although it is unclear what exactly Saint Dartment encountered back then, it is generally certain that it was related to taboos.
Otherwise, fate wouldn't have sent down this curse.
“There are no more choices!” Lotus clasped his hands together, his robes billowed and fluttered, and his body shone with light, with each vein radiating a faint glow.
Upon closer inspection, one will discover that the source of these faint lights is tiny sacred runes.
These cryptic texts flowed through his blood vessels and into the flesh and blood of Lotus.
This is a further application of the recall decree, and also a bloodline experiment and development of this decree by the Levin family.
Gotthard immediately prepared himself, and a special life force flowed around him.
The golden life force was infused with a large amount of faith power, which then formed that sacred blade.
Then suddenly, Lotus placed his hands on Moritulus's body.
The divine secrets, under his guidance, began to shine for the first time.
Moritulus's body underwent rapid changes; what he had lost, his altered state, and certain aspects of his inner self were all recalled to their original forms under the influence of this secret technique.
The originally complex and forbidden changes also ended their entanglement under this force, and those complex things will disappear with them.
But it spread rapidly, entering Lotus's body through the connection.
But it was precisely at this moment that Gotthard made his move.
The Divine Blade pierced Moritulus's body once more, then quickly spread out, accurately identifying the forbidden existence.
Then it spread rapidly, suppressing these taboos.
Moritolus then regained consciousness and, without needing to be told, immediately understood what had happened.
Then the sacred incantation on his body quickly lit up.
This commotion immediately attracted the attention of the twin demons.
"Let's temporarily join forces to disrupt the Saint's spatial teleportation?" the Twin Demons said.
"No need. I'd love to witness the magnificence of a saint, and a three-way battle would be nice too." Angel Nai didn't care about this. With a flick of her sword, the magpie tail pierced through the twin demons' weakness.
This attitude made the Gemini Demons frown.
Although the God of Discipline has encountered problems, weakening the Saints somewhat, it is still unwise to oppose the Saints in the material plane.
So, is this angel Nai, who is even weaker than him, simply ignorant and fearless, or does she have some kind of trump card against the saint?
The twin demons couldn't understand it, but they didn't bother to think about it anymore.
If we can't join forces, then we won't. It's just another powerful enemy. Let's fight.
Having reached this point, the Twin Demons are no longer afraid of battle.
The spatial barrier was broken, the saint's secret incantation condensed, and a golden light appeared, from which a golden figure emerged.
The moment he appeared, everything around him fell silent.
Some demons and similar beings suddenly exploded into black smoke with a 'bang,' dying completely.
The saint has descended!
Chapter 380 Incurring Hatred
As the saint stood on the back of the floating whale, a sacred field descended, covering everything around him.
He glanced back at Moritulus slightly, his brow furrowing slightly.
Then his hand was already on Lotus's shoulder.
Suddenly, Lotus wriggled, and a tiny figure resembling Lotus crawled out and tried to escape.
However, after taking only three steps, intense blue smoke billowed from his body, and then he turned to ashes under divine power.
The saint said nothing more and strode forward.
After a slight shift in his gaze, he looked directly at Angel Nai.
"Haha, it seems you're more hated than I thought!" The twin demons laughed at the sight.
He thought that his plan to drag a floating whale into the abyss would make him the saint's primary target.
But now it seems that Nemus is more hated than him, as the Saint actually chose Nemus as his target first.
"Then you should be eliminated first!" The twin demons don't care about kinship; they'll focus on the weakest one and beat them down first.
Regardless of the outcome, it's up to him and the remaining person.
Otherwise, if a three-way battle is only about trying to gain an advantage from both sides, then it is very likely that one of them will be the one whose advantage is eliminated.
In the current situation, the Twin Demons still hold the advantage.
He has more trump cards than Nemus and a higher margin for error. Although the Saint is strong and can be considered his true form when summoned by the Saint's Secret Spell, it is not his real body.
In this situation, he is not without a chance of winning.
However, as time goes by, the advantage that the Twin Demons have built up over two hundred years will quickly disappear.
And Angel Nai's advantageous zone will also arrive.
At that time, the Twin Demons' control over the Azure Whale will disappear, and the boost he gains will increase further.
If Angel Nai can achieve a perfect victory, then she can make Azure Sky stand alone.
However, once that opportunity is missed, it will become the church's area of advantage.
Support teams from all over the country will arrive immediately.
If there are some top-tier golden species nearby, given their bodies' ability to withstand space, they could probably reach the Azure Sky in just a few minutes.
At that time, even the twin demons had to run away.
After all, some top-tier golden beings are not necessarily much weaker than saints.
Therefore, although they didn't join forces, they did manage to kill Angel Nai, which suited the Twin Demons' wishes perfectly.
In an instant, the sky burst into a riot of colors.
Many steel-clad individuals, gazing at the magnificent sky, were swept away by the surging air currents before they could even react.
Large areas of buildings collapsed under this impact and turned to ashes.
The angel Nai, transformed into a stream of light, constantly weaved between black and white.
He swiftly swung his sword, unleashing streaks of sword energy to preemptively thwart any approaching attacks.
Countless black insects fell from the sky like raindrops.
These insects flapped their wings and charged toward Angel Nai.
Upon seeing this, a sword of energy appeared in Nemus's hand and shot out.
Divine power flashed on the sword.
Sword of Fortune - Light Bird!
A divine power that suddenly appeared out of nowhere was originally heading straight for Angel Nai, but it was now drawn by the power of the Light Bird and used the Light Bird's sword to annihilate the black insects.
The sage raised an eyebrow, and then, with a surge of energy in his hand, a sword of harmony appeared.
Mastering the sword of destiny.
What frustrates Nemus the most is that the Saint is a perfect replica in this respect.
This means that there is no innovation at all; it's all old stuff from Angelina.
Nems was unable to gain any new insights from the connection with luck.
This is clearly the result of the sage's deliberate control.
