Chapter 330: Mortal Feud

Hmm, Chumen is actually on a ship too, just on the "Future".

The "Future" is the flagship of the "Admiral of Stars" Cattleya; it is currently less than ten nautical miles away from the "Dawn", and not far from the location where Klein is hunting the "Admiral of Blood"—one can even see the billowing smoke through a telescope.

Chumen exists in a state that normal people cannot perceive; he very casually placed a lounge chair on the deck of the "Future" and lay on it comfortably.

All of his own causality has been cleverly guided to fall upon Backlund, and having lost his causality, even the "Mother Goddess of Desire" cannot temporarily see him through the eyes of the "Divine Sin".

"Not bad." Chumen glanced at the standoff between the Angels outside Bayam and nodded lightly.

Bernadette is the second Dual-Pathway Beyonder in this world; judging from Klein's current combat record of a Sequence 6 Dual-Pathway Beyonder thrashing a Sequence 5, Bernadette, who is already a Sequence 2 Angel, is also extremely formidable.

At the very least, if Sua the "Divine Sin" did not have the "Mother Goddess of Desire" pulling strings behind the scenes, he would definitely lose his Characteristic.

The "Dream" Pathway only gets stronger the higher the Sequence; Klein probably has a deep appreciation for this point.

Chumen withdrew his gaze from the "Dawn" and looked at Klein, who is currently fighting many Blood-Venerating Cultists.

The addition of the Arrodes Mirror completely destroyed the balance of the battle; the Demigod-level Lightning attacks are very lethal, and even a combination as strong as the "Admiral of Blood" plus the "Tree of Flesh and Blood" is heavily injured when struck by the weakened version of the Lightning.

And these Blood-Venerating Cultists are basically each holding one or two Sealed Artifacts, but this is nothing compared to Arrodes.

After Edwina pinned down that evil Puppet, these demons simply could not last two rounds under the Lightning.

"You want to harm my supreme master?!" Arrodes, with many people present, restrained itself slightly and did not create a sonic boom, merely manifesting this line of text on the mirror surface.

But those Blood-Venerating Cultists were being struck by Lightning until they were charred on the outside and tender on the inside; where would they have the time to answer questions?!

Klein held a sword in one hand and the mirror in the other, pressing forward, and casually decapitated a Blood-Venerating Cultist whose true demonic form had been pierced through.

When killing these demons, Klein is like an executioner; he does not feel disgusted, he is merely fulfilling his duty to rid the people of evil.

"You are courting death!" After Klein finished off several Blood-Venerating Cultists in succession in this relaxed manner, a sinister voice was transmitted directly into Klein's mind.

That "death" made Klein's body feel a chill and stiffness, as if he were truly about to become a corpse.

Crack!

A Lightning Storm wrapped around Klein, but it did not harm him; Arrodes's control of the Lightning was very precise, merely isolating the "Heart Devil" of that unknown enemy.

"Lord Laurent!" Someone among the Blood-Venerating Cultists cheered, causing all the demons suppressed by the Lightning to feel a surge of spirit.

The "Apostle of Desire" who was being pinned down by Edwina also let out a sigh of relief.

"A Demigod? A 'Devil'?" Edwina's gaze turned toward the old man who had appeared abruptly on the ship.

Compared to the "Devil" dressed as a nobleman that Klein had seen before, this "Devil's" malice was even more unbridled and wanton; his eyes revealed a sense of bloodthirst and a disregard for human life as if it were mere grass.

"I don't like your eyes, there is no awe, so I am going to eat you." The "Devil" Laurent looked at Edwina, noticing the headband on her head, but did not care.

A Sequence 5, even if holding a Demigod-level Sealed Artifact, is very difficult to contend with a true Demigod.

This "Devil" grinned, his teeth stained with blood; his "eating" was likely eating in the true sense of the word.

"Only knowledge is worthy of awe, only wisdom is worthy of praise."

Edwina's expression remained as usual, filled with the arrogance of an intellectual.

A "Devil" who cannot control himself is certainly no match for a "Mystic Master" who has read her way to power.

This logic was very clear, so clear that the malice in the eyes of the "Devil" Laurent grew even more intense.

Klein, who had just broken free from the Demigod's Filth, felt his scalp tingle; is the "Iceberg Admiral" this tough?

He had tried it himself; currently, he only has the option of fleeing in front of a "Devil," and even then, it is highly likely he wouldn't be able to escape.

"I actually don't like eating people from the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom; they are too self-righteous, it affects the meat quality."

The "Devil" Laurent evaluated very seriously; that appearance caused a chill to rise in Klein's heart, and he subconsciously thought of a certain bloody scene.

No! This is a "Heart Devil"!

Klein's Spirituality immediately reversed his cognition; he had almost fallen for the "Devil's" whisper.

This feeling is very strange; if one's inner thoughts are dominated by the "Devil," it will definitely erupt at some point, directly harvesting one's life.

This is the "Heart Devil," stronger than an "Apostle of Desire."

The moment the "Devil" opened his mouth to speak, the battle had already begun!

"You have really eaten one?!" Edwina's expression could also no longer remain calm; the hypnosis that had been maintaining her state was shaken.

"Yes, it seems it was a Bishop, in a church on Kali Island?" The "Devil" thought for a moment, his bright red tongue licking his lips, revealing a reminiscent smile.

"Kali Island Bishop, Isidro Tali, disappeared without cause three years ago, suspected dead." Edwina found the corresponding record in the Church's intelligence.

"You will die." She looked at the "Devil" Laurent and said seriously.

"Heh!" The "Devil" Laurent could sense that Edwina's self-hypnosis had failed and that she had developed great negative emotions toward him; these were emotions that could be utilized.

"Yes, you will die."

On the "Golden Dream," such a voice was transmitted; the voice spread across the sea, like an announcement, or perhaps a "prophecy"?

Coincidentally, the Sequence 4 of the "Reader" Pathway is called "Prophet".

The "Devil" Laurent suddenly raised his head and looked toward the "Golden Dream".

An old man wearing white divine robes stood on the deck of the "Golden Dream," looking at Laurent with indifference.

"Teacher!" Edwina looked at this Archbishop of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom and bowed slightly to show respect.

Just as Klein had envisioned at the very beginning, for those out in the world, who doesn't have a backer behind them?

It's just that now, the "Devil" Laurent had very successfully turned a simple "hiring" mission into a mortal feud.

Originally, the Bishop of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom had only come to make money; killing a few more Blood-Venerating Cultists was just profit.

But now, if he cannot kill this "Devil," he would have no face to return.
