Devil's Bible

There are countless factions and groups.

It can be predicted that, with the God of Discipline being defeated by the Abyss in the Astral Plane, he also lost almost one-fifth of his divine essence to Nemus.

When the higher-ups lose their ability to suppress, most of the various factions below will inevitably cause chaos.

"If I remember correctly, Gotthard is a proponent of the Peacemaker movement?" Nemus thought. The so-called Peacemaker movement believed that after the catastrophe in the material plane, only the teachings of the Discipline Church could better guide people to live on the whale's back.

They need to guide more people to believe in the God of Commandments, and then unite them to govern this wretched world in a more powerful way.

"And in Nair's memory, the original mainstream faction in Azure Whale City was the land grabbers?" Nair pondered all of this.

The so-called land-enclosureists advocate extreme autonomy; a whale city is a kingdom.

The entire city's church was controlled by different nobles.

Although they believe in the existence of God, they also prioritize the interests of their family.

They regarded the entire back of the whale as their own territory, enclosing it and governing it themselves, and everything inside belonged to God and themselves.

They are also trying to reduce the connection between church branches and headquarters, so that the branches can have more power.

"That's why they came up with things like bloodline experiments."

The two factions are deeply divided, with one believing that the other has blasphemed God's teachings and is preventing any solution to the world's problems.

One side believes the other is meddling in their affairs, and that their own territory is none of the business of outsiders.

“So, this situation is advantageous to me.” Nems grasped the key point.

Under normal circumstances, Nems estimated that he would be taken back by the church for various examinations, or even human experiments.

Nemes was prepared for this; through this method, his undeniable power could quickly gain the church's attention.

There may be some constraints at first, but we should be able to get things going quickly.

The advantage of the land grabbers lies in their strong sense of privilege. Therefore, as long as they obtain privileges, they can accomplish many things.

Therefore, Nemus did not conceal the fact that his own holy bone had been activated, and fabricated a story about using the abilities of a saint to learn breathing techniques and swordsmanship, which was partly for this reason.

The land-grabbing faction values ​​bloodlines highly. Once they confirm that they possess some of the essence of a saint, they will soon arrange marriages to form a community of shared interests.

However, things have naturally changed now, and the addition of the peace-loving faction will exacerbate the internal conflicts between the two sides.

The church is no longer a one-man show run by local factions, so the procedures will naturally become much more formal.

Because of the rivalry between the two sides, they will relax some conditions regarding the recruitment of new forces.

Gotthard has taken the initiative to invite me to work for him. I estimate that after returning to Qiquan City, my investigation will be easier, and someone from the land grabbing faction will offer me a deal to work for them.

This is also why Nemes didn't rush to agree to Gotthard's offer. When he could play both sides, he naturally wanted to wait for the right price and not take sides before understanding the situation.

By the next day, the entire dorsal fin village had been almost completely cleaned up.

A team of paladins and priests will escort these villagers to Tailtail Town.

As for Nems, he and Isabella were taken by Gotthard and flown to Airfoil City.

Thank you for your support!

Chapter 73 Qiquan City

Flying is currently one of the fastest ways to move on the back of a whale.

The premise is to be aware of the floating whale's own flight and attacks from dangerous creatures.

“The floating whale looks stable, but its flight speed is not slow, which is why the sunrise and sunset are not stable.” Gotthard sat on something that resembled a carpet.

That carpet was the so-called flying magic carpet, woven from the fine hairs of wild floating whales, and with the help of certain spells, it could carry people into flight.

He brandished his sword from time to time, and then dangerous flying creatures that approached from afar were cut down and fell to the ground.

Of all dangerous creatures, flying creatures are the most dangerous, since they can fly and will occasionally leave the whale's back to approach the earth, thus becoming contaminated.

Flying abilities are not particularly complex; for example, the bones and hair of a floating whale have a certain degree of ability to regulate gravity.

Pull's bony fins are able to regulate his own weight because of this.

Therefore, with just a small piece of whale bone or some hair, along with some spells that activate special traits, one can create a flying vehicle.

However, most people still obediently walk on the ground to face other dangerous creatures.

Only a golden-type like Gotthard could be so confident as to lead a group of people directly into flight.

They flew very fast, and even though they were flying in the same direction as the floating whales, it only took them a day to get close to the center of Azure Whale City—Qiquan City.

The name Ichisen City is self-explanatory; it is located at the blowhole of the Floating Whale.

However, what spewed out from that huge, bottomless hole was not water, but 'gas'.

Once the specific time is reached, a spectacular sight will appear at the water jet.

A large amount of air surged upwards, forming a slightly curved white column of air.

With the right tools, one can move through the air using air columns.

Because the air column contains a strong aura of a floating whale, it will not be disturbed by dangerous flying creatures.

If the timing is right, the people of Airspring City can land exactly on the tail that the floating whale swings.

At the same time, the air column may also contain whale-derived substances.

For example, the harvesting of things like whale skin is perfectly legitimate and legal.

Thus, one can see people riding in strangely shaped 'ships,' taking off on air columns, and then, after flying to a certain height, casting out huge nets from their hands.

At that moment, as they sat on the flying carpet, they saw a white column of air shooting up in the distance, and inside the column were countless tiny black dots.

Due to the direction of the jet and the movement of the floating whale itself, the entire column of air was rapidly passing over their flying carpet and then quickly flying into the distance.

Despite the high speed, the people inside were not injured. The ships were specially made, and most of the crew members had undergone special training.

“The whale’s airflow is very stable. After it spouts water, it decays very quickly. Many knights and wizards would repeatedly ride the air column ship to sense the airflow and try to understand the technique of slowing down the decay and maintaining stability of this power.”

Seemingly noticing that Nems' gaze was fixed on the air column, he spoke to the female priest next to Gotthard about some basic facts about the air column.

“I was born here, so I know this, but I never expected to be able to come back here again.” Nems withdrew his gaze, no longer looking at the column of air and the water jets below it.

According to the Church's accurate description, it should be called the Deep of Breath.

The air inside the hole and the air escaping from the hole are not the same thing.

The expelled air is a column of air that can support people's travel.

The air inside the hole is called the ghost wind.

Many 'sinners' of the church were imprisoned in the Abyss of Breath.

Nemus was able to create the move "Rising with the Wind" largely thanks to his three-day trip to the Abyss of Breath.

Having traveled through time, Nemus believed he had arrived at a stage where he could make his mark, and he became exceptionally flamboyant.

With the advantage of the coordinated operation of his true spirit and soul, he quickly earned a reputation as a genius.

His comfortable life, however, made him lose his vigilance.

I once naively believed that I could control everything around me and change the world.

As a result, he was taught a lesson by iron fist, and everything the church had taught him showed him that he was nothing!

Looking back now, he was betrayed and abandoned in the factional struggles, largely because he was seen as an unstable element from that time onward.

Rather than expecting an unstable genius to grow, it's better to give up and create a rigid, mystical weapon—the Prayer Angel.

"In essence, I am still a minor character, and it is still difficult for me to change this world." The only special thing about Nemus is the true spirit structure that transmigrators bring with them.

If there were no true spirit, his story would have ended the moment he was sacrificed and transformed into a prayer angel.

It was precisely because of that special quality that Nemes seized the opportunity to continue and climb upwards, truly riding the wind and navigating the waves.

But it's only a possibility.

"I need to learn from this experience and not fall halfway through again." Nemus's emotions became complicated at this moment, and then his consciousness sank into the number of divine attributes carried by the true spirit.

Continue to study and research divinity, even if progress is zero, persevere.

"I will truly stand in the heavens!" Nemus opened his eyes, and the flying carpet descended slightly.

We've arrived in Qiquan City.

Compared to the small chapel in Dorsal Fin Village, the main hall in Airfoil City is exceptionally magnificent.

The continuous rows of buildings, paired with stained-glass windows, create a dazzling spectacle, evoking a sense of sacredness from the depths of one's heart.

A large number of clergy came and went, and many people were also heading this way.

The leader, 'Nems,' had met him before; he was the former top leader.

The Grand Master of Azure Whale City—Killiman Robert.

"Thank you for your hard work." Killman greeted him with the demeanor of a superior welcoming a subordinate.

“After all, it was trouble caused by some seniors, and as a junior, it is necessary for me to help take over.” Gotthard was not much weaker in terms of words either, and he used a retreat as a way to choke Guilliman.

This issue is essentially a legacy problem from the previous church in Azure Whale City.

Those illegal experiments were conducted by key researchers who were able to live out their later years in seclusion, even in a small village for so many years, without anyone ever checking on them.

Upon closer examination, this is a serious dereliction of duty.

"Has the political struggle within the church become this intense?" Nems concealed his gaze, avoiding direct confrontation with the conflict.

Fortunately, the two golden princes still needed to maintain basic dignity and order, and did not fight each other in front of the cathedral.

Everything quickly returned to normal procedures.

Nems was taken to a small courtyard and met with many different groups of interrogators over the next few days.

Fortunately, due to some kind of struggle, he was not treated as a criminal.

The character Guilliman Robert, from the "Extra Building" section, is a submission from a reader who also wants to become a Logic enthusiast.

Chapter 74 Uncle

"Nair!" Just as Nemus was waiting for the result.

The door to his room was suddenly opened, and a man with a nervous expression walked in.

He called out Nemus's name, and after seeing Nemus, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's so good to see you again."

"Are we that close, Byrne?!" Nemus's cold gaze stopped the man from getting any closer and shattered his feigned emotions.

Byrne, an extremely successful investor.

One of his most successful investments was marrying his intelligent but indecisive sister to a nobleman in exchange for business capital.

That nobleman's name was Ron Dartmenley.

That's right, the man in front of you is Nair's uncle.

They were also accomplices of the Dartmenley family.

Back then, Byrne was almost always on the side of the Dartmentley family's interests, but Nair eventually saw through Byrne's true colors.

This is an entity that only cares about profit.

“Don’t be angry, Nail. You are still my nephew no matter what.” Byrne was not angry because of Naim’s cold treatment. Instead, he continued with a smile, “There is actually a big misunderstanding here. Don’t get agitated.”

"It's hard to argue who was right and who was wrong back then." Byrne said earnestly, "The bloodline experiment was initially initiated by your father, and the situation was extremely complicated."

"But that's all in the past. The focus now is on the future."

"The family has forgiven you. As long as you return to the family, you can let go of everything from the past."

"Get out!" Nemes responded with only one word to Byrne's sophistry.

Nems is also extremely adept at the opponent's sophistry, such as directly characterizing things.

Many people lack a clear understanding of a matter. In such situations, whoever has the firmest stance and the loudest voice is considered to be right.

As a result, many idiotic viewpoints are considered correct at the scene.

Byrne's middle sentence, "It's hard to tell who's right and who's wrong anymore," is a reclassification of the matter.

If many people are not clear-headed and are only driven by emotions, they are easily led astray by the other party's line of reasoning in such sophistry.
