“The attributes are wrong, the alchemy multiplier has decreased, and my casting speed can’t keep up with the changes in swordsmanship…” The twin demons were well aware of this.
Sure enough, the next moment, the sword in Guilliman's hand became primarily an earth elemental.
At this point, it would be too late to change the main structural elements or perform new alchemy.
However, the twin demons showed no panic whatsoever.
Since he dared to come out and use a vessel with a value of 200 to fight, he must have extremely powerful trump cards.
Behind the twin demons, a dark shadow appeared, and a gigantic demon phantom hundreds of meters tall stood there.
At the same time, everyone smelled a sulfurous odor.
Then a touch of blood appeared on the shield in front of the twin demons.
The territory of the demon lord can also be regarded as a small plane!
Chapter 369 'Body of Light'
The twin demons stood still, their swords thrusting out to block the elemental shield, but they couldn't advance any further.
Furthermore, it can be observed that as time passes, the demonic phantom becomes increasingly solid.
"Admit it, you can't hurt me now, and my alchemy can continue to drive the connection between the local area and the abyss."
"If you run away now and leave the Azure Whale, you might still have a chance to survive!" The twin demons uttered these psychologically manipulative words.
However, the twin demons frowned the next moment.
His gaze suddenly fell on Kru.
Kru, who had been keeping his eyes closed, was now surrounded by a thick black aura, and in the blink of an eye, he landed on the warden.
Curse of Bad Blood!
Not far from the warden, Elias, still clad in his armor, charged towards the warden, brandishing his greatsword.
The warden channeled his spiritual energy, and several flaming longswords materialized.
Shaping-type Flame Weapons!
The flaming swords were about to attack and stop Elias at the warden's command.
The next moment, I felt pain all over my body.
My vision turned bloodshot, and something was flowing out of my eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
Most importantly, my heart is pounding.
It's as if every heartbeat right now pumps up sand instead of blood.
"A curse?" The warden grinned, looked up, and saw Kru in the distance.
Clearly, now that he has calmed down, Kru has grasped the crux of the problem.
When you want to strike at a target, you often target that person personally. If that person is powerful, then your targeting won't cause them any trouble.
You need to figure out what the other person cares about, and then seize on their sore spots and strike hard.
The Twin Demons no longer care about this vessel; all they care about is their own schemes and their desire to seize the Azure Whale.
So all we need to do is thwart the Twin Demons' plans, and then it will be their turn to break down.
Upon seeing this, the twin demons frowned slightly and then sighed.
"It seems that I have no choice but to kill my son today."
That feeling of still having everything under control has never changed.
The twin demons have a very strong belief in the warden.
As expected, the sudden curse disrupted the warden's fighting rhythm.
And Elias had already rushed in front of him, swinging his greatsword and slashing at him.
For a moment, it seemed that the warden was about to be cut in two by Elias's sword.
Just as the warden was about to do something else, a golden light suddenly flashed in Elias's eyes beneath his mask.
The Holy Son Project has a total of five types of holy bloodlines.
Left hand, eyes, lungs, skin, bones.
Rhine is left-handed, but his saintly essence is mostly devoted to the Holy Wish Ritual.
The blood donor for the lungs was imprisoned within his own family.
His skin was white. He escaped and used the unique properties of his skin to perceive space, thus giving rise to spatial characteristics.
The bones belong to the Dartmenley family.
The provider of the sacred blood of the eye was Elias.
The Red-Eyed Brothers, strictly speaking, were all of Elias's bloodline.
At this moment, under Elias's golden gaze, the warden felt even his thoughts begin to sluggish.
Before he could even process what was happening, the greatsword had already sliced him in half at the waist.
The warden's body, severed in two, lay on the ground, blood splattered everywhere.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the next moment, it was discovered that the sacrificial ceremony had not stopped.
"Hahahaha!!" The joyful laughter drew everyone's attention.
The warden, who was cut in two, was not dead.
His body began to glow at that moment, then transformed into two wisps of elemental energy that entered his clothes.
They then reassembled and coalesced into a new body.
Pushing up his glasses, the warden appeared before everyone unharmed.
"A body of light... How is this possible?!" A clergyman, witnessing this scene, questioned incredulously before being killed by one of the warden's subordinates.
Once a Golden Seed Priest enters the Light Transformation period, as long as the transformation is completed, the body will be completely transformed into light.
This grants one the characteristic of "Light-Transformed Body".
This characteristic allows the priest to eliminate all physical weaknesses and vulnerabilities; only by targeting the priest's soul and spirit can he be truly killed.
However, this trait has now appeared on a priest of the Iron race.
The question that clergyman asked before he died was also the question that other priests had.
Even the warden couldn't possibly know such a crucial secret about his own abilities...
"Because of faith!" the warden actually answered, giving his answer with a wild laugh.
"To devote oneself wholeheartedly to an idea, to purify and unify one's spirit and beliefs, is the necessary condition for opening the body of light!" The warden looked at the many priests present and made a fatal mockery: "Of course, you can't do that. Although you are priests, your faith is only what you think about when you pray."
“You are no different from ordinary people in your daily lives!”
Many clergy members looked grim, unable to face this answer.
Although clergy members claim to believe in God, it's hard to say how much they truly believe.
Even ascetics find it difficult to fully adhere to the doctrines set forth by the God of Discipline, and to wholeheartedly devote themselves to this faith.
Humans are always selfish, and in daily life, we are merely maintaining the state of faith we have when practicing meditation.
Paladins are even more so; aside from some secret arts that require a degree of faith, most of the time they only have a superficial faith.
Even pastors only have faith when they are praying or meditating.
They were used to it and didn't see anything wrong with it.
However, at this moment, the warden was able to maintain a state of absolute faith at all times. In comparison, even though the warden did not believe in the God of Discipline, but instead turned to his own twisted philosophy of pleasurable combat, it made these clergy members look rather shabby.
"I see, thank you for your guidance." Suddenly a voice rang out, not loud, but enough to suppress many of the sounds of battle.
Upon hearing this voice, the warden couldn't help but look towards the distance.
Dressed in a black robe and exuding a unique aura, Nemus appeared not far away.
"A fictional demon?" The light emanating from the twin demons shifted, deepening the dark red hue as they blocked Guilliman's holy sword. At the same time, with a wave of their hands, a large amount of black blood spread outwards.
"Why don't you greet your senior?" The twin demons looked at Nemus, as if trying to see through his true nature.
"Sorry, I was a little scared after killing your ally." Nemus retorted, looking directly at the twin demons.
Chapter 370 Adding Fuel to the Fire
Nemus's words made the twin demons smile slightly.
"Clement is no good, he was actually taken down by a little kid."
"So, the Sinful Soul is also in your hands?" The Twin Demons stared at Nemus, a smile appearing on their faces.
“Perfect timing. I was a little reluctant to kill Clement, my old partner of two hundred years. If you kill him for me, it will be a favor to me.”
The twin demons spoke while looking around at the casualties.
"Still not enough. Let me add more fire." As soon as he finished speaking, the shouts and screams that had been gradually subsiding became intense again.
The entire city was filled with wails, explosions caused by various battles, and countless cries of people being separated from their loved ones by death.
Looking around, there is almost nowhere that is safe.
Numerous demons and cultists have appeared throughout the city.
This action, however, surprised Killieman, who seemed somewhat unable to understand it.
The most crucial issue is that, while the other party's actions seem advantageous, they are actually beneficial to Azure Whale.
With its distress calls cut off, the Azure Whale is currently in a state of isolation and helplessness.
In this situation, the outcome is already in the Gemini Demons' favor.
However, this favorable situation will be broken in the future.
The first sign is the large-scale gathering of demons and cultists, followed by fierce battles. This turbulent change in elements, along with the demons' undeniable aura, will be a very clear signal.
On the Black Sky Whale not far from the Azure Sky, and even on the backs of floating whales further away, individuals like the Golden-type Priests could sense this drastic elemental change.
In other words, the situation of the Azure Whale being isolated and helpless, which was carefully orchestrated by the other party, was broken by their own hands.
Secondly, another important issue is that the Azure Whale is not actually weak.
The church that resides on the whale's back possesses not only the four gold-level powers, but also three other gold-level methods.
Outside the church, however, there may be more than a dozen such gold-level items.
Every noble family is descended from the Golden Clan, and if the Golden Clan doesn't die unexpectedly, they can live for thousands of years and leave something for their descendants.
Of course, in many noble families, as time goes by and with the division of the family, these things will either be used or become obsolete.
However, with so many noble families, there would inevitably be quite a few similar items remaining.
Normally, these things are not used, and even if the church is in crisis, these nobles are unlikely to risk these things that have been passed down for hundreds of years to help the church.
During the previous riots in Qiquan City, although these nobles did send people to fight, it was clear that they would not use their family resources to rescue some civilians.
But now it's different; the twin demons are on a rampage, ready to slaughter cities and wipe out entire regions.
Although some nobles still harbor wishful thinking, believing that the Twin Demons will not succeed and will be defeated by the Church, and that they will not need to use their family's resources.
But not all nobles are that foolish.
In other words, under the forceful coercion of the Twin Demons, the Church will actually gain about ten more Gold-level combatants.
While the twin demons' actions did accelerate the blood sacrifice ritual in the short term, they were extremely disadvantageous to them in the long run.
"unless……"
"Unless I'm confident I can complete the blood sacrifice in a short time and bring my projection here!" The twin demons laughed, picking up on Guilliman's idea and revealing their plans.
If this drags on, and the abyss layers I control get too close to the prime material plane, the Church might discover it.
Some churches have an extremely terrifying level of development regarding prophetic perception abilities.
At that time, my actions might be discovered, and that church loves to meddle in other people's business.
