Chapter 547: Demons and Believers (Part 1)
Chapter 547: Devil and Believers (Part 1)
The child's mother was packing up the clothes drying in front of the door. When the devil walked into the village, she saw it a little late. She didn't have time to grab her child back, so she could only watch Naris walk to the child and squat down.
In her eyes, Nelis was not smiling. Do the three monsters with their heads eat their son? She wanted to rush up and grab her child back, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead and could not move a single step.
Neris almost crawled on the ground, and could not let her eyes look straight at the child. The child held the cat, raised his head, looked at Neris' huge head, and was very interested in the corners above Neris' head.
"What's your name?" Neris asked softly. Her ability to control her voice was unnecessary, and the child was not scared by her.
"Geggs."
"Well, Geggs, can I ask you a question?"
The village was silent, and some villagers looked out from the window, not daring to make any noise. The villagers were afraid of irritating the demon and hurting the child.
"Okay, but who are you?"
"Me? I'm a demon." Nelise said patiently to the child.
"What is the devil?" The child reached out and tried to touch Neris' horn, but he couldn't reach it.
What is the devil? Neris was speechless when asked by the child. She thought for a while and said, "The devil is the bad guy."
"You are lying to me." The child got angry and muttered and put the kitten on the ground. The kitten had already frightened and exploded. Now he was free and ran away.
Of course, Nelis would not make things difficult for this weak creature who was not even a monster. She smiled and said, "I didn't lie to you. I came here to kill the preachers in this village. It's... the pastor."
"Okay, okay!" The child clapped his hands and pointed to a small white corridor at the end of the village and said, "Where are the pastors? They all live in white houses and do not farm."
"Thank you, little guy, this is a gift from the devil." Nelise said, picking out a small statue with his nails and handing it to the child, then stood up and waved to the two big devils.
The demons speeded up and rushed towards the white house.
Seeing the demon walking away, the village woman standing at the door staggered out, picked up her child, and fled into the yard.
Salin followed behind the Demon Team, saw the situation and shook his head secretly. According to records, in ancient times, ordinary farmers would not be so afraid of demons, right?
There were also mutant demons who were confused and came out to harm humans, but the farmers back then would gather together to search for demons. Dozens of farmers could kill ordinary demons. If there were retired soldiers, three or five could capture the ninth-level demons alive and give them to the nobles to deal with.
According to that kind of record, humans back then were probably born to be professionals.
Salin knew that when targeting ordinary people, Naris was not in a mood to do anything. What she tortured and played with were the strongest among professionals. So when Naris asked about the child, Salin was not worried.
On the other end of the village, in a white two-story building, a first-level priest is preaching to several villagers and telling stories from the sacred code. It is difficult to preach in this village. The villagers do not even need to build formal churches. Only a few unemployed guys are willing to listen to the pastor’s preaching. Of course, there are also a few devout believers, which is a very gratifying thing for the priest.
As long as there is the first believer, after this person returns home, he will constantly instill the concept of faith in his family. Over time, more people will be impressed.
As for those idle people, their purpose was to listen to a free dinner after the doctrine. After the war, everyone's days became bitter, and it was worth it to have a dinner with meat and wasting an afternoon.
Neris's demon brigade came to the white building. She found that even the demons behind her could not enter the building. Neris used the Sword of Rules to cut a gap on the wall, then grabbed the wall on the front of the building with four hands, pulled it back, and the entire wall collapsed. As the smoke filled, Salin released a cleaning technique to suppress the dust.
The pastor who was preaching was a first-class priest. He was talking and was excited. Suddenly, the wall ahead disappeared, and a tall demon appeared outside, looking at him with dark eyes.
The priest opened his mouth and suddenly felt his voice hoarse.
Among the ten believers who were listening to preaching before him, six of them screamed strangely and fled to the door behind him. The other four believers stood up and flashed behind the pastor with an ugly expression.
Nelise looked at the nervous priest, and Salin suddenly shared his perception with her. In Salin's eyes, a group of knights in golden armor surrounded by more than a dozen magicians. The old magicians led by him were using equipment similar to an alchemy telescope to observe the village.
The distance is too far? Even if I kill the priest, the followers behind will not arrive immediately. If I finish killing people, those followers will probably pretend that they didn't see them and continue to follow behind.
Turn around and kill? It's a solution, but if these people retreat, will they and their master keep recovering to Daliang City?
"What are you going to do..." The priest saw the devil in a daze, pretended to be brave and screamed.
"Ah? Ha, priest, I want to pray to God. I wonder if you are willing to listen?" Nelise laughed again. This priest is over. If he makes trouble here, the people behind him will come to save him. At worst, he will find a town next. There will always be magicians worth rescue in the town, right?
The pastor swallowed and wanted to say to Neris, "You ruined my house so domineeringly, I don't want to..."
However, Nelis asked him politely if he could listen to his prayers to God, which he could not refuse. If he rejected a person who hoped to pray to God, his life in the Holy See would be over.
"Well, confused... believer, speak your name."
"Well, priest, I am not a believer. I just want to tell the Lord of Light that he, a stupid pig, would die sooner, the divine fire is extinguished, the divine character is broken, the kingdom of God collapses, and my body is eaten by me. I saw him spreading faith everywhere, and I felt very disgusting. What kind of faith is this kind of garbage to spread? The wild dogs in my master's city are nobler than him, at least they will not bark at others' houses and force people to listen to his call. Pastor, do you understand?"
Neris said in one breath, and the priest was already dumbfounded.
Finally, Neris called him, and he pointed at Neris' huge nose and said angrily: "A blasphemous person..."
"I am not a human, I am a demon!" Nelise carefully corrected the priest's words.
In the perception shared by Neris and Salin, the golden armored warriors on the hillside did not move, and the magicians did not mean to approach the village. Neris was a little disappointed.
"Demon! Evil guy, how can you defile God's glory!" The pastor thought he was dead, but instead became irritable. He pointed at Neris and said angrily: "It was God who created everything, it was God who gave human happiness, it was God..."
"It's your mother, it's your mother who gave you life, it's you who gave you family, it's your mother who gave you everything. What's the matter with God? Is God your father?" Nelise's words have always been vicious, and normal people will be angry to death, let alone she directly insulted the supreme existence in the heart of this pastor.
The pastor jumped up and shouted: "Without gods, the world is dark. Without gods, all kinds of disasters will come. People cannot eat enough or wear warm clothes. Don't bewitch people's hearts, you demon!"
"Idiot, the poorest person on this Meles continent is the Tanggulas Empire controlled by your Holy See, and the richest person is the Qinin Empire, which is not allowed to preach. What are the gods giving you Tanggulas people?"
"The wrath of God has come to Qin Yin's land. The light of God will shine on the whole world!" The priest raised his neck and argued with a hint of pride. The army of the Tanggulas Empire has entered Qin Yin's north, which is what the entire Holy See knows.
"If you don't believe in him, you will destroy other people's homes. Tsk, this is God, what a bastard."
"That's because you blaspheme the gods, and the gods will be angry!"
"Your words make some sense. Humans did make a lot of gods at the beginning, and they were all guys who were stronger than Lord of Glory. Otherwise, it wouldn't be the junk guy like Lord of Glory to preach on the Meers continent. Don't you know how the name of the Continent of Glory got? That's because Goddess Meers is not the shitty Lord of Glory."
"I'll fight with you!" The pastor said nothing, waved his fist and rushed up. A believer behind him grabbed his sleeve, exposed his head, and said to Neris: "There is no existence except the Lord of Glory that deserves the title of God. Mels is just a liar, not God at all."
"How do you know?" Neris had no intention of taking action. She could just push the person in front of her and just stretched out her finger to death. Her purpose was to lure the people following behind to come and rescue.
"This is what God himself said, and there is an oracle here." The believer answered frankly.
Neris didn't understand. After thinking for a while, she understood what the believer meant. The demon behind her burst into laughter. The strong and huge sound waves made the white building that had lost a wall shaking.
"You believe what he said?" Neris asked the believer helplessly.
"Of course, God never lie." The believer's face was firm and there was no initial fear.
"How do you know that God doesn't lie?" Nelise asked curiously, how an ordinary believer ended the gods? The demons also knew about this kind of thing.
"Because God said that he would not lie," the believer replied.
