Chapter 289: Christianity will not disappear, you can rest assured

"This is... my power?!"

Gazing at the aura emerging from Lin Que's body, Sariel widened his eyes in disbelief.

"It clearly only just consumed my concept, yet it managed to analyze it successfully so quickly."

"Can't be helped."

Lin Que shrugged: "As the only current solution, if I didn't analyze it quickly, wouldn't I be letting you run away?"

This was the truth; regarding an enemy like Sariel, Lin Que still felt a certain degree of trouble.

It wasn't that Sariel could threaten him, but rather that he had no way to easily slaughter the other party.

Sariel did not have physical flaws in the conventional sense; whether his head or torso was blown apart, he could complete regeneration in the blink of an eye.

For Lin Que, who currently still relied on physical output, there were only two ways to deal with the other party.

Either use 【Omniscience and Omnipotence】 to peer into Sariel's past and future to find the root and weakness of his regeneration.

Or use 【Ultimate Lifeform】 to strike directly at the other party's concept and deal true damage.

However, the moment he thought of these two points, Lin Que passed on the former.

Sariel had a two-digit ranker behind him; simple combat was one thing.

If he accidentally locked eyes with that Holy Son while peering into Sariel's past and future, it would be equivalent to self-destruction.

Having gone through so much disguise, it was better not to play the clown unless necessary.

And after excluding 【Omniscience and Omnipotence】, Lin Que's only remaining means was 【Ultimate Lifeform】.

But even the seemingly useful 【Ultimate Lifeform】 could not be activated easily.

Devouring an enemy's concept was already equivalent to engaging in a battle at the conceptual level with the devoured one in their peak period.

If one could not beat the devoured one into losing combat capability on the reality level, it was equivalent to working on two fronts simultaneously.

To prevent flipping the car, Lin Que had previously always beaten enemies until they lost combat capability before using 【Ultimate Lifeform】 to devour them.

But this time was different; Sariel's regenerative ability was simply too troublesome.

Even if Lin Que beat Sariel until not a single cell remained, the other party could still appear out of thin air.

Strictly speaking, this had already transcended the realm of regeneration; calling it resurrection would not be an exaggeration.

"To be honest, this time I really owe it to you for giving me the opportunity."

After completely digesting that portion of 'Sariel' he had devoured, Lin Que looked at the opposite side with some emotion.

"If you hadn't deliberately revealed a flaw to give me the chance to feed in order to make me relax and be careless, I really don't think I would have been able to keep you here."

"And it was clearly only a portion of the concept that was devoured."

An ominous premonition gradually rose in Sariel's heart: "Exactly how much did you learn from my memory?"

"Well~ just a very small part, but for me, it's already enough."

After all, in the intelligence provided by Shirayasha, the description regarding Sariel was already quite extensive.

Lin Que's understanding of Sariel was only missing that crucial part the other party had hidden.

If it were before, even if he devoured a portion of Sariel's concept through 【Ultimate Lifeform】, Lin Que could only rely on luck to obtain information.

But now with 【Omniscience and Omnipotence】, there was no need to be so troublesome.

Lin Que could not easily peer into Sariel's past and future to prevent locking eyes with a two-digit ranker.

But in the next second that was about to arrive, selecting the successful path from those infinite possibilities was not a problem.

After combining the two, this was the reason why Lin Que could obtain key information by hitting the mark in one go, having devoured only a small portion of Sariel.

"I was wondering why your regenerative ability was so strong; I didn't expect you to have two main bodies."

Sweeping his gaze around, Lin Que's body suddenly disappeared from where he stood, and then immediately reappeared.

But unlike when he left, this time when he appeared, he was holding another Sariel in his hand.

"How about it? Now that the other you is also in my hands, do you still have the confidence to run away?"

"...... It seems you were indeed not bluffing."

Seeing the other self being dragged out by Lin Que, the Sariel standing in front of Lin Que's expression turned completely ugly.

That's right, whether it was the Spear of Longinus or the four-digit breaking-the-rules strength, those were only his trump cards on the surface.

As for the trump card Sariel had always hidden in the dark, it was his other main body that was hiding.

His two main bodies had interconnected power; as long as one side remained in a complete state, the other side would permanently be in a peak state.

Coupled with the light-dark regeneration he mastered after comprehending light and dark, this was how he could recover even after being beaten until not even a residue remained.

According to Sariel's plan, he had originally prepared to use the No. 1 main body to drag Lin Que down, while the No. 2 main body would go to crack the Gift Game, thereby completing his escape.
