Please be my partner.

After the giant skeleton beast repelled the Void Dog again, it suddenly turned around, and its huge body directly smashed through layers of space and escaped.

The Void Dog was stunned for a moment, then became furious. It had regarded the Skeleton Beast as its food. For the Void Dog, the most unacceptable thing was that the food flew away from its mouth!

Melen also laughed and shook his head. The Skeleton Beast's feeling was correct. The reason why the Void Dog could hold on for so long was naturally because of his support behind the scenes.

This was also because Melen saw the rapid progress of the Void Dog in the battle with the Skeleton Beast, so he did not interfere further.

Seeing that the giant skeleton beast had reacted, Melen naturally understood that the battle was over, so he directly cast [Soul Synchrony] on the Void Dog.

Suddenly, the size of the Void Dog increased visibly again, from 50,000 meters to 70,000 meters, and its strength in all aspects also improved overall.

The Void Dog directly used the skills he learned in the battle, and with his claws, he tore through the void and caught the giant skeleton beast hiding deep in the space.

The giant skeleton beast was shocked and began to struggle hard, but what shocked it even more was that the Void Dog, which was far inferior to it in strength just now, was now on par with it. In this situation, because it was seriously injured, it was not only unable to break free from the Void Dog's grip, but its injuries were even more serious.

"Ah woo!~"

The Void Dog didn't care and bit the skeleton beast directly, tearing off large pieces of flesh and bones.

"Hoho!~"

The giant skeleton beast roared in pain, and its ferocity was aroused. It also opened its mouth and bit the Void Dog.

In this way, you bite and I claw, and the two void beasts enter into a more primitive and bloody battle.

Mellen's mouth twitched. He actually didn't want the Void Dog to get hurt when he had an absolute advantage, but he could clearly feel the Void Dog's excitement and madness.

It is enjoying this fight!

In this situation, Mellen certainly couldn't spoil his dog's fun.

In this way, with the tenacious fighting will of the Void Dog and Melen's little support, the Void Dog became more and more courageous.

The giant skeleton roared with unwillingness and despair, but this could not stop it from reaching the critical point of collapse first.

As the Void Dog took its last bite, the skeleton beast, which had lost half of its mass, suddenly stagnated and then exploded.

Although the Void Dog was a little embarrassed by the final self-explosion of the Skeleton Beast, it could not hide its excitement at the moment. Then it devoured the Skeleton Beast completely with relish.

Melen watched this scene with a smile, and only then did he have time to check the changes in the Void Dog's attributes...

【Name】：Void

[Race]: Void Behemoth (Deep Purple Lord)

[Racial Level]: Level 5

[Racial Skills]: Void Feast, Void Body, Void Power

[Evolution Direction]: → Void Behemoth King (Orange)

【Status】: Completed the second unstable evolution

……

……

Needless to say, the strength of the Void Dog has been greatly improved, and after two unstable evolutions, the original purple lord has also become a dark purple lord. This means that although the Void has not yet escaped the barriers of the [Void Behemoth], it has also taken a step forward.

After Melen released [Soul Synchrony], the Void Dog's body returned to its original size, but he believed that after the Void Dog digested the skeleton beast, it would grow significantly.

Melen waved his hand, and the Void Dog came running over. During this process, its body began to shrink rapidly, and when it came to Melen, it had become the size of an ordinary dog.

The purpose of this exploration of the endless void has been basically achieved, and Melen has no intention of staying any longer, so he sets off directly to return.

The journey for the next month was uneventful, and Melen returned safely to the spirit world.

During the three months that Mellen explored the endless void, the atmosphere in the Council of Beasts became increasingly solemn. Every report meant that the preliminary preparations for the "Hunting God" operation had taken a step forward.

Even the most recent Council of Beasts has asked them to gather in different worlds. The "big net" has been spread and the action is about to begin.

Melen first found the Collector and obtained the resources to repair the quantum force field of the α-07 Macross.

After the latter's rights exchange and premium acquisition, Mellen's needs were finally met.

Then Mellen went straight to the designated location.

This is a medium-sized world called the Green Forest Realm, which is rich in natural resources. The indigenous people here are an intelligent race similar to elves. They are friendly by nature and like to be with nature.

Of course, the elves' friendliness is limited. For some well-known reasons, they strictly forbid outsiders from approaching their territory, and those who do not listen to their advice will be killed directly.

After arriving in the Green Forest Realm, Mellen simply took a quick look at the local customs and culture before diving into his mission.

He first found an underground merchant and bought a map of the Green Forest Realm, and then began to wander around and explore according to certain clues.

Seven days later, in Vodafone City, at the Three Axes Bar.

Melen popped out a magic gold coin and said to the bartender, "I want a glass of the strongest drink here."

The bartender put on a professional smile and asked, "Guest, is there anything else you need?"

Mellen nodded and handed over a note.

The bartender took the note and magic gold coins, greeted his companions, and then walked backstage.

A moment later, the bartender returned, took out a notebook and a prepared drink, and said, "Here is everything you asked for, sir. It costs a total of three hundred and fifty magic gold coins."

Melen curled his lips. Although he didn't care about these few magic gold coins, he had to admit that the information here was really expensive.

Mellen drank the wine in one gulp. The taste was unexpectedly good. He couldn't help but say, "I want another glass of this wine."

The bartender's smile widened as he said, "Sir, Purple Spirit Brew costs fifty magic gold coins a cup. Are you sure you want another one?"

Melen was speechless, realizing that the glass of wine included with the purchase of intelligence should be a bundled purchase, and that the intelligence actually only required three hundred magic gold coins.

Mellen directly took out four gold coupons with a face value of one hundred, signaled the bartender to quickly make the cocktails, and then quickly flipped through the information in his hand.

A day later, Melen came to the mountains and left after searching for half a day.

Three days later, Melen sneaked into the elves' territory. With the help of Jinmao's light and dark power and Xiao Liuli's illusion ability, he easily bypassed layers of obstacles.

Five days later, Melen came to a deserted cave.

At this time, he already had several books of intelligence in his hands, and most of them had been crossed out by him.

Mellen was still hiding his body as usual and approaching the cave. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he became more cautious.

After approaching the cave entrance and sensing it carefully for a while, Melen discovered that this might be the target he had been looking for... the secret church of the Lord of Darkness.

Melen went directly into the cave. After going deeper for a while, he could clearly feel the surge of dark power around him.

Soon, Melen discovered some guards, but of course, they couldn't find Melen.

Melen passed the guards and continued to move forward. Deeper in the cave, he saw a large complex of buildings, including the statue of the Lord of Darkness, confirming that this was the target he was looking for.

Faith is also a significant supplement for a mythical strongman, especially a mythical strongman who is injured.

Therefore, the first step of the Council of Beasts' "Hunting God" is to eliminate all the secret churches of the Dark Lord. Otherwise, these devout believers will continuously provide power to their god, and even burn everything they have as a sacrifice at critical moments.

Chapter 460: The First Step of "Hunting the God": Destroying His Minions

Melen wandered in the cave like a ghost for three days, and knew it inside and out. He even knew it better than most of the dark lord's believers who lived here all year round.

The entire cave consists of four main parts: the prayer area, the living area, the breeding area, and the farming area.

Located in the center is the prayer area, which is not only filled with sculptures of the Lord of Darkness, but also has a magnificent temple in the center and churches of various sizes on the periphery.

Only clergymen above the rank of bishop can enter the temple, while believers need to go to different churches to pray on time every day according to their status.

The residential areas are also separated into different levels. Those with higher status naturally have better living conditions and do not have any additional labor tasks every day. Those with lower status not only have poor living environments, but also need to work in breeding and farming areas in addition to praying, and most of the food they obtain must be contributed.

Of course, there are clear channels for advancement among believers, and the most enviable one is undoubtedly the recognition from God.

If a believer can trigger a miracle when praying devoutly, his status and position will immediately be greatly improved.

However, similar incidents have only occurred one or two times in the past thousand years.

Apart from this overnight method, the only other way is to work honestly for the church and accumulate one's own piety.

The entire Dark Lord Church has a total of about 300,000 people, almost all of whom are devout believers, and there are also many fanatical believers, and they are all adults.

Melen found it strange at first, but after a little investigation he realized that all newborns were sent to a special church academy for brainwashing education, and only when they reached adulthood would they be assigned to various churches.

Therefore, these dark dominant churches can maintain such a high purity of faith.

In terms of strength, there are at least ten saints, one of whom is at the peak of the saint level, three are in the late stage of the saint level, and six are in the early stage of the saint level.

As well as two thousand legendary Knights Temple, and three thousand reserve knights.

These are just the apparent strengths of the Dark Lord Church. During his exploration, Melen also discovered two places that made him feel uneasy. One is the central temple, and the other is on the Pope.

As for the former, Melen guessed that it might be a backup plan left by the Dark Lord, while the latter was a semi-artifact bestowed by God. However, only the saints of the church knew the more specific information. In order not to alert the enemy, Melen did not act rashly.

Mellen's main goal this time is to destroy the church as much as possible. This has nothing to do with right or wrong, it is just a struggle for the most fundamental interests.

They, the members of the Council of Beasts, are naturally on the opposite side of the gods of the starry universe. This was determined from the beginning and cannot be changed.

Hundreds of thousands of devout believers may not be a big deal to a mythical and powerful being.

However, the Dark Lord has been seriously injured and in deep sleep ever since the invasion. The churches under his command have experienced all kinds of suppression and oppression, and there are not many that still retain a complete system and institution.

It can be said that these churches are seeds. As long as they are there, once the Lord of Darkness awakens, it will be easy to establish kingdoms of faith one after another.

Next, Melen lay in hiding, quietly waiting for the signal from the Council of Beasts.

Melen didn't have to wait long. Just over ten days later, he received a message from the Council of Beasts.

The time to act is the darkest hour!

The Darkest Hour is not a specific point in time in a certain world, but the legendary time when the Dark Lord was born. This is also the moment when all the Dark Lord's believers need to stop everything they are doing and pray to God.

On this day, all the followers of the Dark Lord wore their most formal clothes, and even the poor tried their best to dress neatly.

At this moment, believers, regardless of status, formed a long line and came to the square outside the central temple to listen to God's teachings.

The Pope has a sacred temperament of compassion. He stands on the high platform of the temple and speaks of the glory of God.

Mellen stood on the top of a church not far away, looking at the hundreds of thousands of people praying devoutly. A ripple flashed in his eyes, but soon returned to calm.

When the appointed time arrived, Melen said softly without hesitation, "Four times... [Soul Synchronization]!"

"BOOM!~BOOM!~BOOM!~BOOM!~BOOM!~"

Intense pressure suddenly rose and spread in the cave.

All the believers first felt a shudder from their souls, and in an instant more than half of the believers fainted and fell to the ground.

Then, bubbles of dreams kept appearing and disappearing, dragging all believers into a wonderful dream from which they did not want to wake up.

Then a blood mist rose up, and a bloody light filled the air. The blood in the believers' bodies was forcibly drained, and they became weak and shriveled in their sweet dreams until they died.

Finally, the golden immortal fighting spirit swept across, directly killing those believers who had not fallen into the dream and were still struggling to resist the erosion of the blood mist.

Almost in an instant, 70% of the hundreds of thousands of believers who came to pray with pious hearts died, and the remaining ones were quickly rushing towards the arms of their gods.

However, by this time, the saints of the church and the Knights Temple had already reacted, and they were extremely shocked and angry.

Immediately, three saints flew towards where Mellen was. The Knights Templar also united and, under the leadership of a saint, erected a powerful protective barrier to protect the surviving believers.

After Melen succeeded in his attack, he immediately turned around and tried to escape.

The mid-stage saint among the three saints immediately accelerated in pursuit, shouting, "You blasphemer, you cannot escape. Accept the punishment of the gods!"

Mellen's lips curled up, and four colors of light condensed in his palm, turning into a dark golden blade. With a wave of his hand, a dark golden mark was cut into the space, cutting the mid-stage saint who had left his companions' support into two pieces. His immortal fighting spirit burned wildly, as if to wipe him out completely.

At this moment, the entire cave was shaken by a rumbling sound, and a large amount of dust and rocks fell, as if it was about to collapse.

The church leaders were first shocked, and then furious. They certainly could not believe that the Promised Land of God, where they had lived in hiding for hundreds of years and had been reinforced many times during this period, would collapse so easily, and at such a coincidental time.

This, of course, was Mellen's work, the result of his hard work during this period of time, all in order to destroy the cave in one fell swoop.

The two early-stage saints who were shocked by Mellen's attack slowed down their pace at the same time. Just as the middle-stage saint sent a frantic cry for help, they took the opportunity to come to the latter and mobilized their own power of rules to help suppress the raging immortal fighting spirit.

Seeing this, Mellen chuckled and got away easily.

The Pope suddenly raised the scepter in his hand, and a divine light burst out. At the same time, the temple behind him also released tremendous power in response. With the cooperation of the two, the collapse of the cave was directly stopped.

At this moment, the Pope realized that the attacker had already escaped. He glared coldly at the three saints who were pursuing him, then ordered his attendants, "Catrina, Dalton, take your men and capture the attacker. Try to bring him back alive, or at least bring back his soul. I want him to repent for his actions before God for ten thousand years!"

"Yes!" X2

After receiving the order, the two knights in gorgeous armor quickly chased in the direction where Mellen fled.

Upon seeing this, the two early stage saints, after stabilizing the injuries of the mid stage saint, looked at each other and had no choice but to follow. They knew that their cowardly behavior just now might have caused the Pope's dissatisfaction. If they could not make amends now, they would suffer in the future.

What reassured the two was that when they were helping the mid-stage Saint to heal his injuries, they had already realized that the attacker was at most a late-stage Saint. To be able to knock the mid-stage Saint into a near-death state with one blow, he must have used some secret method.
