Devil's Bible

One of the men being pulled was disheveled, reeked of alcohol, and had a die hanging from his waist—a habit of old gamblers.

He struggled to resist the pulls of those people while protecting a girl leaning against the wall behind him.

Clearly, this is a gang pressing for repayment of debts. If gamblers can't pay their bills, not only will they become slaves, but their families will also be captured and enslaved.

only……

"I seem to remember that according to the doctrine, human rights are divinely endowed, and no human being is allowed to become a slave, whether in debt or otherwise!" a voice rang out. Human rights are divinely endowed; all people exist because of God, so no one can deprive another person of their human rights and reduce them to slavery.

Of course, doctrine is doctrine, and reality is reality.

Slaves are not openly present, but a large number of similar entities exist in secret.

"Who cares about this?" The woman with the open-chested long sleeves turned around and saw Naimus. She quickly tried to recall him, but she couldn't remember the name Naimus.

"Sir, you misunderstand. I was just indebted to you for too long, and it was just a slip of the tongue." Although he didn't know Naimus, the open-chested man still sensed Naimus's extraordinary aura, so he immediately became serious and explained, "They are not slaves, but debtors who work for us to pay off their debts."

"Do you have any money? If not, we'll come back next time!" After saying that, she opened her long sleeves and looked at the man who was protecting her daughter, asking, "Then you'll have to work as a farmhand for even longer."

The threat was already obvious.

"Tell me, do they want to take you as slaves?" Nemus asked with a smile.

The gambler glanced at the open-chested long sleeves, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes, and was about to speak.

He can't afford to mess with these gangs; he's just a slave now. If he says anything out of line, he might not even die peacefully.

"Ah!" A sigh seemed to echo in the gambler's ears, a sigh that he couldn't seize the opportunity.

Then a gangster thug rushed out, his short knife already plunged into the gambler's throat.

The gambler's words were immediately cut off.

"Great! Arresting people in the street to enslave them, and then silencing them on the spot!"

"As the newly appointed Grand Knight of Baiwei Town, I will definitely investigate this matter to the end!"

Chapter 78 People Can Improve

He was stunned by the splattered blood on his open-chested long-sleeved shirt.

If it were a street fight, he would wipe the blood off his face and then pick up his knife and continue slashing people.

But what are we doing now? Just an extremely routine debt collection.

Every month, people who couldn't repay their debts were taken away to work as "long-term laborers," which were essentially slaves.

This is something everyone knows, and he's gotten used to it; otherwise, he wouldn't have said it out loud in the street before.

"Are you sick? Do you need to silence him?" The man with the open chest and long sleeves was stunned for a moment, and then he was knocked to the ground.

The henchman who had stabbed someone turned around menacingly and charged straight at Nemus.

Fear was in his eyes, and there seemed to be extremely fine threads spinning beneath his skin before disappearing.

"How dare you attack a paladin!" Nemus drew his sword and silenced him with a single blow.

Then, Nemes pointed the blood-dripping blade at a terrified gang member standing nearby.

Not all gang members are audacious enough to be fearless of death.

Moreover, Nems' imposing presence amplified their fear even further.

"Speak, who are you people, and who's behind you?"

At that moment, the man in the open-chested long-sleeved shirt who was lying on the ground instantly realized that they were after the gang and that they had already entered the police station.

"Don't say it..."

"We are Black Vipers!" The voices of protest and surrender rang out simultaneously.

“Black Viper, is it?” Nemus smiled.

-

"The news from Adnor is that Nair is estimated to be arriving in Tailwind Town soon." On the other side, in a castle in the northern district of Tailwind Town, a man on horseback hurriedly arrived, had the gatekeeper announce his arrival, and then entered a training room in the fortress to report the information that had just come from the church.

Naims naturally received the transfer order, so the corresponding grid reports would naturally follow.

"When did this happen?" The person who spoke was standing in the spring, taking deep breaths as he slowly walked through the water. He had dark brown hair and wore only a thin undershirt and shorts. He had a muscular physique and only a few wrinkles on his face.

"We received the message about three hours after we set off. If Niall is quick, he should be landing soon."

“Our relationship isn’t what it used to be, otherwise we would have known as soon as he set off… But it’s good that he chose Baiwei Town.” The man slowly stopped what he was doing and nodded.

"Immediately dispatch Black Viper and White-tailed Fox's men; I want to monitor his every move."

"Then we'll gradually make things difficult for him in Baiwei Town."

"Only stray dogs know how good home is after they've suffered."

“That makes sense. When children have conflicts, they don’t understand the situation, so we have to teach them what they’re doing wrong.” The person who delivered the intelligence was named Daros Datmenley, and he immediately agreed before turning and leaving.

Daros knew that although the patriarch was training at a leisurely pace, under normal circumstances, no one was allowed to disturb his cultivation.

However, this time, he was directly received during the process.

This shows that the head of the family actually values ​​Nell's existence very much, and it's best to do what he gives immediately.

Daros mounted his horse again and headed towards the southern district.

Baiwei Town is divided into north and south sections, corresponding to two whale tails.

The northern district was mostly inhabited by nobles, wealthy merchants, and people of high status.

The southern district is home to numerous gangs and various business organizations.

There are also a large number of impoverished people who make a living in this area.

There are approximately 1.7 million people on the entire back of the Azure Whale.

The town of Baiwei has 500,000 people on the surface, but there are actually many more people without identities lurking in the shadows.

Although it is called a town, it is actually a city.

Black Viper, White-tailed Fox, and others are all gangs that Dartmanley has been supporting in recent years.

Both organizations are centered around two individuals with considerable strength, "Black Viper" and "White-tailed Fox," who run gambling dens and brothels to make money.

At the same time, they also did some shady work for certain important people.

Daros changed his clothes midway through the trip and made contact with the gangsters. Ultimately, this was a disgrace to his family, and he needed to cover it up.

However, he had only just arrived at the entrance of the black viper when he noticed something was wrong; the smell of blood was very strong.

"Could there really be people who don't give the Dartmenley family any face?" When the family first arrived in Baiwei Town, the surrounding forces naturally tested them.

Let's see if this nobleman has fallen so low that he is unable to protect his wealth.

So the Dartmanley family immediately supported Black Viper and White-tailed Fox. After several battles, they managed to open up the situation and gradually consolidate their power.

Although they withdrew from Qiquan City, they were taken advantage of by other nobles in Qiquan City, who swallowed up a lot of their family interests.

But that was in Kiquan City.

Although Baiwei Town is comparable in size to Qiquan City, its actual population may even exceed that of Qiquan City.

But for Qiquan City, this place is still considered the countryside.

These people's knowledge and skills are actually far inferior to those of Qiquan City.

Some truly good things don't circulate in Baiwei Town.

Most of them eventually flow to Gas Spring City.

Most importantly, there are no gold mines in Baiwei Town on the surface.

Therefore, the Dartmanley family is confident in this regard that they can protect most of the people in Tailtail Town.

And yet today, some foolish person actually dared to come to their protected territory...

A dark shadow flew out of the room and crashed heavily to the ground.

The black shadow that flew out, though its face was blurred and deformed from the heavy blow, was none other than Black Viper, judging from its clothing.

Daros immediately drew his weapon, ready to face the enemy.

The next moment, he narrowed his eyes and recognized the person who came out of the room.

“Nair…”

"Draw your weapon and face me. Are you an enemy too?" Nemus's voice fell as he stood before Daros.

Instinctively, Daros swung his sword at Nemus, but halfway there, the sword changed from a slash to a strike.

No matter what, we can't kill Neil...

The moment that thought crossed his mind, he found his sword being grabbed by Nemus.

"Impossible! Your power is wrong...!!!" As one of the few Iron-type members in the Dartmenley family, Daros was able to advance through the family's resources, but he also worked hard to train, and his value had reached around twenty-three.

This value, if it doesn't converge, can be fatal if there's even a slight increase in intensity.

He could just crash into those rocks and trees; the problems wouldn't be with him, but with those natural materials.

The reason it is called "steel type" is because beings that reach this level have surpassed most natural materials. They are made from ordinary human bodies and, through tempering, are equivalent to steel.

“People can improve!” Nemus said, and then he gripped the other’s sword and slowly pushed it toward Daros’s neck.

Chapter 79: Not too high, not too dense

"I am a paladin. I came to investigate after hearing the commotion here. I am not with these people," Daros quickly revealed his identity.

He knew very well that revealing his Dartmenley identity now would only make things worse; it was better to bring up his status as a clergyman.

"You should have said so earlier." Nemus had already recognized Daros's identity and knew that now was not the best time to kill him.

The other party was a clergyman, unlike these gangsters.

We can't just kill someone using any excuse.

When Daros saw the regret flash in Nems' eyes, he couldn't help but shudder. He realized that Nems was a ruthless person, completely different from the 'Nair' he had in mind before.

Most importantly, according to the report they received, Nair had been promoted to the Iron type through the awakening of the Sacred Bone, and his stats had reached twenty.

This is an astonishing number.

Ordinary people get promoted, like Daros himself.

He reached his limit when he cultivated to the number nine, and then used family resources to obtain a new number, thus completing the breakthrough in the number of species.

However, when Daros was first promoted, his own stats were only twelve points.

There were some slight breakthroughs, but not many.

After nearly ten years of refinement, it has finally been improved to the current 26 points.

And that's already a pretty good speed.

After the steel type reaches ten points, the speed will decrease by about three times for every ten points increased.

Judging from his physical condition, if he can raise the value to forty, then he will be considered successful.

But what about Naim?

It has been less than a month since I was brought to Qiquan City and received my first detailed physical examination, which showed a value of twenty.

In just one month, Nemus had surpassed his stat of 26 and established a stable dominance.

This indicates that Nemus's value is now close to thirty.

This is an extremely terrifying speed.

"Perhaps only a monster like this can witness the pinnacle of the Iron Race." Daros's heart was not at peace. Although he knew that his current achievements were mostly due to the protection of his family.

However, he was still severely discouraged when he encountered a true genius.

“Therefore, the more this is the case, the more we need to bring Neil back to the family’s camp.” Daros’s thoughts quickly turned to this point.

"I wonder what happened to this person, and why the battle broke out?" Daros immediately switched to a businesslike mode.

In the current situation, his instinctive act of drawing his weapon and taking action has already given Nemus a bad impression.

We must now find a way to remedy the situation.
