Devil's Bible

"Pulse, have the village guards retreat first, you prepare to provide backup." Nems accurately assessed the situation and then gave the order.

Poole's eyes lit up.

Since entering Baiwei Town, he hasn't had the chance to make a move for a long time.

Having received the order, Poole quickly prepared for battle.

Although the village keeper was worried about his daughter, he also knew that his talent was lacking and his strength was hard to compare with Poole's, so he quickly retreated.

Poole remained.

Poole took a deep breath and then stopped breathing.

Black spots quickly appeared all over his body.

His body rapidly expanded, transforming him into a small giant over three meters tall.

Then he quickly blended into the environment.

Unlike Lia, Poole cannot move while merging with the aura, otherwise he would quickly reveal a flaw in his aura.

However, at this moment, he was waiting on the road that Leah was bound to take.

He was like a giant rock.

The next moment, a surge of emotion welled up within him, and Poole suddenly unleashed his full power.

His entire being seemed to leap from the sea like a giant, and for a moment, most of the northern district felt this aura.

White, who was chasing after Leah, had his already unclear perception of Leah instantly overwhelmed.

Before White could amplify his senses, he heard a whooshing sound coming from afar.

A carriage belonging to an unknown owner drew a clean arc in mid-air and crashed down upon us.

Bai Te didn't care when he saw the carriage; the carriage was made of inferior materials.

Even if the number of people thrown over is not low, the carriage's carrying capacity is limited.

If it were to fall on him, it would be the carriage that would break, not him.

However, the next moment, a sense of vigilance rose in Bai Te's heart.

Then White immediately swung his arm.

A blinding white sword aura shot out and collided with the carriage.

The sword energy struck the carriage, instantly causing it to fall apart and scatter to both sides of the street.

Even a small piece of wood, at this moment, is like an ingot of iron, instantly smashing through the wall and creating a large crater in the street.

After that, the pieces of the carriages seemed unable to withstand the force and quickly collapsed into dust and debris all over the ground.

Blocked by this, Bai Te could no longer sense the enemy's presence.

He quickly approached the spot where the carriage had come from, but Poole had vanished from the original location.

Sensing the rapidly disappearing and annihilating aura here, Bai Te merely curled the corner of his mouth slightly.

Then came the church sentry from the North District. Bai Te quickly raised his hand, solemnly explained what had happened, and cleared himself of any suspicion of causing trouble.

Throughout this process, Bai Te kept thinking about who might be targeting him.

His spatial abilities permeated his entire mansion, and it was because of the different spatial variations that he was able to sense the intruder.

Furthermore, they left sensors throughout his fake manor, yet failed to detect any intrusion. This level of infiltration ability is definitely not that of an ordinary thief.

The same applies to the subsequent attack on his own carriage.

The values ​​were variable and additional characteristics were added; the material and weight of the carriage changed halfway through its flight.

As for this characteristic of change, Bai Te really couldn't find many similar individuals in Baiwei Town.

"Could they be foreign enemies?"

"Or has my identity been exposed?" Bai Te frowned.

After giving his statement to the church clergy, Baitt went home.

At this moment, in the mansion, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, who is also his 'father', is sitting anxiously and nervously in the living room.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Bai Te return, and immediately stood up and went to Bai Te's side.

"White..." The chairman paused slightly before glancing around, then continued, "Sir, what is it?"

"Some unidentified individuals are probing us." White shook his head slightly, then asked the guild leader, "Has anyone been investigating the guild recently?"

"No, everything is the same as usual!" the president replied immediately.

White then frowned in confusion.

Then, however, his thoughts naturally turned to something else.

Just two days ago, Rhine stepped down from his position as bishop, and the Niton family was also invaded by an unknown individual. Soon after, I was also tested. Is this normal?

My suspicions about Rhine rose up in my heart once again.

"Don't act impulsively. Perhaps it's just that the White Trade Association is too conspicuous, which led to today's incident." White told himself to relax.

His disguise wasn't flawless, but it wasn't easy to see through.

I have most likely not been exposed yet.

If it had really been exposed, given Rhine's personality, he'd probably be outside his own door by now.

"Then how about this?" As soon as Bai Te spoke, the chairman immediately focused his attention and lowered his head, awaiting the order.

"Tomorrow... no, tonight, immediately issue a bounty for the attacker." After handing the information to the chairman, Bai Te's golden eyes flickered.

Chapter 185 The scapegoat

“White?” In a house not far from the church, near the southern district, Rhine couldn’t help but frown.

The news of the White House attack spread rapidly and was quickly linked to the earlier attack on the Nyton Estate.

Because they were all attacked by individuals with unknown identities.

In the past, even if something happened in Baiwei Town, it mostly happened in the southern district.

Those living in the North District are mostly wealthy and powerful, so few dare to cause trouble, and most are eliminated as soon as they do.

This time was different; two attacks in succession made the matter even more widely known.

Rhein took off his glasses and wiped the dust off them.

He knew about the White Chamber of Commerce, and he even had someone investigate it.

The final conclusion was that the Bai Te Chamber of Commerce had not overstepped its bounds; they were simply trying to monopolize the fruits and vegetables in Baiwei Town.

This may create considerable wealth, but the church will also consume a lot of food in the process.

Furthermore, such chambers of commerce are not irreplaceable.

If the White House Chamber of Commerce causes trouble, the church can replace it at any time.

Bai Te? Judging from the current situation, he's just a young man who's only been in the steel industry for a few years.

“But if the group that attacked the White Merchant Guild was indeed the same group that attacked the Niton family before, then White is very likely hiding its strength.” Rhine immediately noticed the problem.

Although the patriarch of the Nidon family was old and suffering from old injuries, he was not someone that an ordinary Ironborn could easily take advantage of.

How could Bai Te, a newly promoted son of a merchant guild, be unharmed in an attack? This doesn't match the strength he's displayed.

Of course, all of this is currently just Rhein's speculation.

What really struck Rhein as odd was that whenever he heard the name White again, he always felt a sense of familiarity.

However, it is certain that this feeling of familiarity does not mean that I have ever heard or seen this name before.

His memory wouldn't be that bad, which is why he had someone investigate the name after hearing it.

"So, does the word 'white' have some symbolic meaning?" Rhine once again flipped through the languages ​​he knew, but didn't find much.

The word "Bai Te" doesn't carry much meaning in human languages, demon languages, elven languages, dragon languages, or any other less common languages.

"Perhaps it originates from some obscure language I don't know, or perhaps its meaning comes from some kind of personal creation." Rhine frowned, vaguely taking the word "White" to heart.

Rhine knew that his intuitions were all reasonable.

In the White House attack, he was more concerned with the word "White House" than with the identity of the attackers, which means that his inspiration was prompting him.

Given his keen perception, which is now only one step away from reaching the Gold level, anything that could give him a hint must be related to his promotion.

While Rhine was suspicious of White, Nems had confirmed some information.

“Under the current circumstances, the identity of a Demon Warlock is basically a one-man show.” Nemus simplified the situation, treating it like a game of Werewolf.

Then you can discover the problems.

While Rhine is suspicious, the Holy Son's identity and behavior strongly suggest that he has a problem, but he is not a demon sorcerer.

As for White, he is also suspicious and may also have some kind of purpose, but the power system he displayed last night is that of a life-side cultivator with rare spatial characteristics, so he cannot be a demon warlock.

In the classic three-choice scenario, after eliminating the other two, it seems that the remaining pitfall can only fall on his shoulders.

The head of a noble family—Czech de Ben.

As a noble family that is not top-tier, but not small either.

This family, however, has few members in the church.

Currently, only four people hold positions in the church.

And basically, there are no internships or full-time positions, not even a small team leader position.

That's a bit too low-key.

On its own, the problem isn't too big, but when combined with the observation of the first suspected target, Jekd Ben, the identity of this demon warlock is basically revealed.

Therefore, after discovering White's problem last night, Nems realized the problem with 'Ben', and thus made Od abandon the probing operation.

"Good, good, good. These days, you can't survive in Baiwei Town without some special means." Nemus couldn't help but sigh, looking at the current power distribution in Baiwei Town.

Rhine is a failed Holy Son, currently closely connected with the Grand Master, and is seeking to be promoted to a Gold Seed.

Bai Te's identity is mysterious, and he possesses extremely rare spatial characteristics.

He is the head of a noble family, and on the surface he is a wizard, but in reality he is a demon sorcerer. He has also secretly supported the cult group, the Floating World Society.

The Dartmenley family, with the bloodline of saints, possesses a family sacred artifact, but it contains some unknown calamity. They have also brought back their holy son.

Isabella, a holder of a special bloodline, is an extremely talented priest with a rapid growth rate. Whether in terms of intellect or strength, she is absolutely remarkable.

The former Great Knight Xibin, a fairy bloodline holder, secretly plotted the course of history, hoping to become a legendary species.

Then it was Naim's turn.

He himself didn't say it, but his subordinate, Kru Kru, was a high-level demon bloodline holder, born with one soul and two bodies.

Becky, a mad alchemist of unknown origin, has an extreme passion for knowledge.

Poole and Towns are monster-level combatants that he created single-handedly.

Even Op is considered a rare summoning wizard.

Leah is an unprecedented whale-like mutant.

Even Nems couldn't help but marvel at how, in the small town of Baiwei, there were countless immortals.

But the more this is the case, the more interesting things become.

The more excited Nemus became, the more calmly he analyzed the situation in Tailtail Town.

It seems that Baiwei Town has many talented people and numerous chess players.

I have a certain advantage in this regard.

However, this advantage is not very significant, at least not enough to overwhelm other individuals.

"So, before that, we need to let some people leave the field first, and then I will absorb their nutrients and develop again."

Nems squinted.

Meanwhile, Op and the others were also asking whether the plan targeting the 'Ben' family should be modified or abandoned altogether.

"You can leave some traces around there."
