Immortal Creed
Chapter 211: Reactionary Forces
Without hesitation, Liens directly killed these things, then used wind to clean the stains on the woman's body, and took out clothes from the package on his back to cover her.
Looking at the woman's still vacant eyes, he sighed.
This was an Instance, an image from the past, and he could not change the predetermined past. Moreover, nearly two hours had passed in reality since the time point of the Instance .
Everything had probably already ended.
Sighing softly once more, Liens turned and left the alley, continuing deeper into the heartland of the reactionary forces to gather intelligence on their situation.
Afterward, although he no longer saw things as disgusting as what he first encountered, various chaotic phenomena could be seen every few steps.
There were public gambling, fights, group bullying, and various scattered phenomena that he didn't know how to describe. In short, it was so chaotic that he couldn't imagine this was an army.
Instead, it was more like a group of gang members carrying out their daily activities.
"Let's go, let's check out the East District. Maybe we can still find some valuable things."
"What's the use of money in the current situation? It's better to find a few more women and maybe even exchange them with the boss for a small captain position."
"I heard that many people are hiding in the East District. Now the West District is restricted by that officer, so they can't casually attack those civilians."
"And if we can find a nun, that taste... tsk tsk, the Church has a very exquisite nun. That face, that figure, if I could have her once, I feel like I would die of pleasure."
"Now that you mention it, I remember... let's go, let's check out the East District."
Beside them, Liens, standing in the shadows, looked at those disgusting things dressed like hooligans, or rather, gang thugs, and listening to their every word, he couldn't help but frown.
The reactionary forces were even more chaotic than he had imagined; there were all sorts of people. How did these guys manage to persist until now without being annihilated by the Inner City?
Thinking about the Inner City, although it was still primarily dominated by the Glenbagen Family, not all the nobles below were obedient to the Glenbagen Family.
Although the Inner City was much better than the reactionary forces, it was also somewhat chaotic, and the quality of the soldiers was uneven.
In previous dungeons, some Extraordinary Ones from various families directly knelt down and chose to defect to him as soon as they saw him start killing.
Perhaps in their eyes, the young him was more reliable than the elderly and seriously ill Earl of Glennbergen.
Thinking of this, Liens was somewhat speechless. Was the so-called war just a competition of who was worse?
After killing those things, Liens continued to hide his figure and move through the reactionary forces. He wanted to see how many more disgusting things the reactionary forces had.
Because the reactionary forces had not set up any magic rituals like those in the Inner City, he didn't know if they lacked the conditions or hadn't had time, after all, such a magic ritual covering an entire area was not a small project that could be completed casually.
Coupled with the chaotic management, even if he walked and killed along the way, it didn't attract any attention.
And besides the chaos mentioned above, he also saw some relatively better places.
For example, some people who were reciting scriptures and praying to the God of Absolute Fairness like believers, and some soldiers undergoing normal training.
The existence of these people was out of place with the surrounding chaos, which further exacerbated the disarray of the reactionary forces.
In his opinion, the reactionary forces were composed of countless factions, and each faction had one or more leaders.
They might have originally worked independently, but were forcibly brought together for some reason, and this reason was divine power, the divine power from Elthorp, the God of Absolute Fairness.
He had previously asked Nimophila about the difference between current priests and former priests.
He knew that before the three gods completely changed priests, the power used by former priests came from the divine power of the gods. The stronger the divine power, the more it indicated that the person was favored by the gods and could represent the gods.
Therefore, priests at that time had another title—Divine Envoy.
Meaning, an apostle of God, a user of divine power, an earthly representative of God, etc.
And current priests are more like followers of a divine path.
Some of them might not even believe in God, but as long as their ideals and pursuits align with the path of the true God, they might receive the true God's gaze and be bestowed with divinity.
God doesn't care about your belief, but if you pursue His path, continuously explore forward, and in this process, forge your own path.
Then God will be very pleased.
Among them, Adventurer priests were the most obvious in this regard.
Although Heavenly Light priests knew that God didn't care, they still had strong faith in Heavenly Light.
And Adventurer priests were called Adventurers. Few among them directly believed in Adventurer; they were blessed by God because they loved Adventurer.
Therefore, the number of Adventurers, even within the Adventurers' Association, was very rare.
Getting off topic.
According to his observations, the Extraordinary Ones of the reactionary forces were basically Divine Envoys of Elthorp, the God of Absolute Fairness; they all possessed more or less divine power.
Among them, his friend possessed the most divine power.
Ben was not dead... When he saw him, he was like a bard, explaining the doctrines of the Heavenly Balance Church and the concepts of the God of Absolute Fairness to his audience with vivid words.
This life might be what Ben had always wished for, so he could sense Ben's heartfelt happiness when he was speaking.
"Did you notice me?"
Liens saw Ben look towards his hidden location, and after politely informing the audience that the speech was temporarily suspended, he walked towards him.
He could see a smile on Ben's face, guessing that the will hidden within the divine power had just said something to Ben.
Just now, as he was observing Ben, a faint yet profound will met his gaze along his line of sight.
This was a phenomenon he hadn't encountered when observing other Extraordinary Ones of the reactionary forces before, which also showed that the God of Absolute Fairness valued Ben more than others.
Later, when that will tried to scan his physical condition, he blocked it.
Although the God of Absolute Fairness was of a very high level, the will attached to Ben was too weak, only capable of bullying those of insufficient level.
For Liens, who had comprehended momentum and could even enter the Heaven and Man as One state at any time, not to mention blocking it, even dispelling that will was not impossible.
Just as he once removed the Succubus Mark curse from Atel, in his view, so-called Divine Envoys were no different from Succubus, only inheriting different powers.
He could feel the joy and anticipation in Ben's heart as he walked towards him, but unfortunately, he was not in the mood to chat with Ben now.
He entered the Instance to test the strength of the reactionary forces, and the things he encountered along the way also intensified his disgust for the reactionary forces.
In his opinion, even if half of the people in the reactionary forces died, there would still be people who deserved to be killed.
Therefore, let him now bring down this "Heavenly Punishment."
