A Guide to Becoming a God Starting from a Monastery

Outside the city, on the edge of a cliff where one can see the open sea, several figures watched the scene silently.

"The Knights...will not allow any ships to dock today." said the leader.

He was humble and his expression was full of flattery.

"It seems they want to keep all of you gentlemen out to sea. Even if they force your way in, it will be a heavy price to pay... However, with their foolish minds, they can only come up with this ridiculous strategy..."

"Although we said we would go to the head captain's house today, but... we didn't say we couldn't go to the island a few days in advance!"

"Ali," someone behind him said. "Let's go over there... Have you contacted that person?"

"Of course, of course, don't worry. My Lords," Ali's gaze lingered on the Wolf God for a moment with some fear.

Although this Indian man stood there motionless like a sculpture, gazing at the sea and sky, no one knew what he was looking at, but the aura he exuded was terrifying.

But you can't quite pinpoint what it is that scares you.

All I can say is that there's something naturally terrifying emanating from him.

"Even though I'm the only one left here, the years I've spent here weren't in vain!"

"Well done, Ali," the man said gently. "Let's go now."

"But, sir, I promised you a lot of benefits," Ali said. He glanced at the others, but none of them looked like they had much money.

Originally, his superiors gave him a lot of funds, but unfortunately, in a failed operation...Ali lost the bet.

The funds given to him by his superiors to bribe the members of the Knights Templar were worth more than 100,000 florins, all of which sank into the seabed with the shipwreck.

Ali was severely punished, but was eventually sent back to continue lurking on Rhodes Island. After all, he had already established a certain network of contacts here and was well-informed.

But things like bribery...don't even think about it if you don't have money.

However, because of this, he became the only remaining spy of the Star-Moon Sword here.

The other spies, all led by elite warriors, were rounded up and captured by the Knights. It was unknown what had driven the Knights crazy, but they wiped out almost all the powerful outsiders on the island in one fell swoop.

Elite warriors, capture those who want to capture, kill those who want to kill!

On the contrary, only spies like Ali, who had no martial arts skills, could survive.

The man who had spoken smiled. He was a young, handsome man, not a warrior, but more of a religious figure.

"Don't worry, Ali," he said gently. "We have something more valuable than money."

Ali took the lead and the group headed towards Rhodes City.

However, their target wasn't actually the city itself, but a settlement a little outside it. It was sort of a town, but it had no walls to protect it.

During this time, the Knights temporarily relocated many people from the city and drove them temporarily out of the city.

On the contrary, it greatly enhanced the military strength in the city.

In particular, the city defense forces have been fully mobilized to build fortifications in the city.

When you enter the town, you can see the hustle and bustle of people, feces and garbage everywhere in the streets and alleys, and a disgusting stench in the air.

"Adults, follow me." Ali walked in front.

The Wolf God sniffed hard.

"My lord, what's wrong?" an attendant asked. "The air here makes you feel uncomfortable."

"Source..." the Wolf God whispered. It was unclear what he saw, but he was clearly observing something invisible to others. "The aura of war. But something is missing, which makes it... a little regrettable."

Wisps of scent lingered in the air, exuding an energy that was tempting and irresistible.

The Wolf God felt his body begin to tremble with excitement.

It's a pity that these energies will disturb his own purity!

He missed this opportunity with a little regret.

He had made his choice and now he had to give it up.

At this point, the group had reached a slightly remote corner of the town, where there was a relatively independent house.

It was not an ordinary house, but a two-story building chosen by craftsmen or small merchants to live in. It reflected the owner's wealth and status.

"Right here, my Lords. This is the person we want to meet," Ali said. "He's a logistics manager for the Order... a hired secretary. He's Jewish. He used to live in the city, but recently the Order evacuated all non-combatants out of town. So his whole family moved here."

"I reached a tacit understanding with him. He is willing to sell some intelligence to us."

"Stay here," the man said. "Don't let anyone get close."

Ali was stunned, but could only reply, "Yes!"

As the others entered the house, they heard crackling noises, as well as sounds of pleading and fighting. After a few minutes, the noises didn't alarm anyone, so Ali also poked his head in.

"Spare your life! Spare your life!"

An obese man lay sprawled on the ground, being trampled by the Wolf God. Elsewhere in the corner, several women huddled in a corner, watching the scene in horror.

They opened their mouths, but no sound came out - this was why the limited movement inside did not attract outside attention.

Silence, or at least some similar supernatural power!

"Don't kill me, I don't know anything! Really! I'm just responsible for delivering the materials! I don't know anything..."

He wore a thick gold chain around his neck, bracelets inlaid with gold or jade on his arms, and even all ten fingers were covered with rings of various colors. Even his clothes and shoes looked like high-end handmade work, and he exuded the air of a nouveau riche who boasted about his wealth.

The walls of the room were decorated with all kinds of expensive ornaments, and there was an opened box nearby, filled with jewels and precious stones.

Being stepped on by the Wolf God, his whole body was shaking. There was even a fishy smell coming from his crotch, and he had already urinated.

"I really don't know anything. I'm just a contractor responsible for delivering goods... Spare me, spare me..."

The young man who had spoken so softly just now squatted down, patted his face, and pointed in the direction of the women.

"Don't, don't touch my family..."

The fat man's eyes widened as he struggled hard: "If you have anything to do, come to me, come to me, they are innocent, don't touch my wife and daughter, please, please..."

"I want to know," the squatting young man said, "what the Knights have built in the city."

The fat Jewish man didn't say anything, his eyes just kept rolling around.

Chapter 197 Before the War 2

The Wolf God loosened his feet and strode towards the women in the corner.

These women were all wearing nice, delicate, and lovely clothes. They were all huddled behind the box.

The Wolf God kicked the box that was in the way away, and all kinds of gold and silver coins mixed with a small amount of jewelry poured onto the ground.

The fat merchant screamed. He struggled to crawl over, using his hands and feet to block the wolf god. He shielded the women behind him, wailing and uttering words that were clearly begging for mercy, barely audible. But the closer he got to the wolf god, the quieter his voice became, as if someone had set a limit on the volume.

"Hey," the young man said. "I gave you a chance just now, but you gave it up."

There was still a smile on his face and his expression was still gentle.

"We can't just pretend nothing happened, right?"

The Wolf God yanked the fat Jewish man up, suspending his bloated body in the air with one hand. His expression remained the same as it had been at the beginning, calm and indifferent.

It was not an ordinary calm, but an uncomfortable calm, as if it could arouse some kind of innate fear in human beings, because you would instinctively feel that there was something chilling hidden behind that layer of shell.

Then he threw the fat man down and picked up the oldest woman.

The middle-aged woman struggled hard, but in the hands of the Wolf God, she was like a toy doll and was quickly squeezed into a strange shape.

Accompanied by the sound of broken bones.

She couldn't make a sound. Even if she tried to scream at the top of her lungs, she couldn't get even the slightest sound out of her mouth. And the sound of bones breaking... honestly, it really wasn't enough to alert anyone outside.

Even at this moment in the town, there are endless pedestrians passing by this house.

The Wolf God used his bare hands to crush, break, and twist every bone in the woman's body. Finally, he deformed her skull and threw it aside like a tattered doll.

The fat man struggled, but the Wolf God stepped on his head. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't move even a little bit.

"What has the Knights built in the city?" the young man spoke again.

The fat Jewish man screamed in confusion: "I don't know, I don't know anything... I'm just a deliveryman of raw materials, spare me... spare me..."

The young man sighed and shook his head slightly.

"You shouldn't lie," he said.

The Wolf God grabbed the other woman. As he turned his head, one could see the bloodshot, madness in his eyes. The Wolf God maintained a calm expression, but that calmness was just a mask. Something was trying to crawl out from beneath it.

Then he slowly crushed the girl in his hands into a tattered doll.

But this time, he crushed the girl's chest cavity, and her internal organs came out, but were covered by the muscle membrane on the surface.

"Ask again, what did the Knights build in the city?" the young man spoke again.

The fat man's eyes widened, tears streaming down his face. He opened his mouth to scream, but no sound came out. That was until the Wolf God grabbed one of his daughters again and crushed her head.

"I don't know! I really don't know what that is!" The fat man finally broke down and burst into tears.

"Why did you kill them? Why? I was just transporting some stones and wood! Those things, those things... I don't understand! I just wanted to... just wanted to..."

"So you lied to me..." The handsome young man sneered and turned to look at Ali outside.

Ali's body was as dark as earth.

He had originally thought that the other party was responsible for part of the project and would at least know the details of the construction of the Knights in the city. He didn't expect that things would just happen to be so coincidental.

"...Tell me what you know," the young man said. "You should have seen something, at least."

"...they built barricades, installed cannons, reinforced the Knights' headquarters, and did some other minor work..."

"Barricades and cannons? And which way do the muzzles of the barricade cannons point?"

"Towards the pier."

The Wolf God loosened his foot.

The fat man jumped up like crazy and rushed towards the wolf god. But he was kicked away. In the end, he could only hold his last remaining daughter in the corner and sob desperately.

A group of people walked out the door.

Ali was the last to come out, and although he didn't close the door behind him, it closed behind them.

They stopped outside the door and several of them turned to look at Ali.

"Ali, you disappoint me a little bit," the handsome young man said. "I remember you promised to make everything right."

"Sorry, adults...it's me..." Ali tried to defend himself, but for some reason, a certain fear overwhelmed his usual quick thinking and eloquence. In the end, he was speechless and could only stare blankly at the few people.

The Wolf God stretched out a finger and gouged out one of his eyes.

The pain made him scream and he fell to his knees, covering the wound that was bleeding.

Passersby around turned their eyes.

But Ali just screamed and didn't do anything else, so everyone saw that there didn't seem to be any major disputes here and left.

After all, most of the people in the town were temporarily relocated this time. They were not related to each other, so it was normal if no one actively called for help.

"Sorry, adults, give me another chance..."

"No need," the handsome young man said. "The Knights are currently targeting the enemies coming out of the docks. If we enter the city from the land, at least half of their deployment will be in vain."

He suddenly laughed. "Actually, this is just a formality. After all, they've set a trap, and if you step right into it, you'd look a bit foolish."

“Only fools consider it an honor to break through the enemy’s trap head-on.”

"Anyone smart enough knows not to step on something like that, even if it's a completely harmless pile of shit."

"It's enough to know their general layout."

Several people started walking towards the city, while Ali was left here.

They no longer needed anyone to lead the way.

Walking slowly all the way, we arrived at the edge of the city in the blink of an eye. The city gate could be seen in the distance ahead.

Of course, the city was inaccessible now. Soldiers were stationed at the gates, and ordinary people were not allowed in. The walls were heavily guarded, with guard posts everywhere. But from a distance, one could see people transporting construction materials in, clearly indicating that the work inside wasn't yet complete.

"Lord Wolf God," the young clergyman said, "It seems they expected us to arrive at night."

"That's right," the Wolf God replied. "You wait here."

"Yes." The two followers bowed respectfully.
