CHAPTER 1257: CHAPTER 630: FROM PERIL TO SAFETY

Whenever any monster is driven to reveal a soul vulnerability, he immediately uses "Strong Wind Phantom" to replace himself in maintaining the Spiritual Energy supply of the Red War God, while he himself leaps out and quickly finishes off the monster.

It must be said that this greatly improved battle efficiency. Throughout the battlefield, apart from Qingyu and Evela, he was the most useful, even more so than the other three Special Level Combatants and Horus, who was fully focused on healing the wounded.

The Saint Reel people had never seen such a way of fighting before, and even Evela couldn’t help but be taken aback.

However, even so, the pressure of the entire battle situation was still immense.

Though the Flesh Puppets cannot resurrect, they still have incredibly strong regenerative abilities, and their Spiritual Energy is deep and substantial, making them hard to kill without focused attacks.

Only Evela at the Monarch Level could, with a full-force strike, kill dozens of Flesh Puppets at once.

Because of this, Rod’s perception of her dropped significantly.

However, relying solely on Evela was not feasible; her Spiritual Energy was consumed rapidly, the brightness of the flames continued to dim, and the interval between her full-force strikes grew longer.

Rod initially planned to use [Spirit Tide], but Asa suddenly said in his mind.

"Master, I smell the stench and excretion, these Flesh Puppets’ Spirits are defecating into the Spirit Realm wildly and without restraint, and I feel offended. Please permit me to join the battle."

Rod was taken aback, and then filled with immense joy.

If the Flesh Puppets’ astonishing regenerative ability could be suppressed, the battle situation would change completely.

He immediately descended Asa’s soul into his Phantom.

"Hahahaha, the great Devourer of Excrement King descends upon the world once more!"

Asa burst into wild laughter.

"From now on, haphazard excretion shall not be permitted."

A chaotic soul suddenly swelled, and Asa opened his big mouth, spewing out tons of gray-brown breath.

Asa truly had become stronger; previously, he could never have spewed such a large amount... Rod watched these grayish breaths rapidly spread across the battlefield and hurriedly said, "Asa, be careful not to pollute the humans."

Asa grinned maliciously, "Master, of course. I, the great Devourer of Excrement King, will let whomever shit, shit, and whomever I prohibit from shitting, will not shit!"

He spread his arms wide and slapped them together.

"Prohibition: No Defecation Allowed!"

The gray breath instantly penetrated into the bodies of the Flesh Puppets, fusing with their twisted flesh.

"Obstruct!"

Asa shouted with wild laughter.

"From now on, their Spiritual Energy cannot exchange with the outside, impurities and waste heat will accumulate in their souls and flesh, interfering with all spiritual operations!"

Almost immediately, the Flesh Puppets began to change.

The temperature of their bodies noticeably increased, pus started to boil, their movements became sluggish and stiff, and their regenerative ability quickly diminished.

Evela immediately noticed this change and exclaimed in surprise, "Lord Rod, is it your ability? These flesh creatures have been struck by an unprecedented curse!"

Rod coughed, refusing the honor.

"Uh, it might be their own soul’s defect."

Asa was somewhat dissatisfied, "Master, that’s my achievement!"

Rod comforted, "I understand, rest assured, I will definitely find more high-quality excrement for you in the future."

Only then did Asa contentedly return to the Dream Realm.

Rod disdainfully dismissed the Phantom, temporarily withdrawing the Red War God, and focused attentively on the grand enterprise of finishing off the monsters.

—His Spiritual Energy consumption was also huge, so he saved wherever he could.

Thus, under multiple suppressions and negative influences, the Flesh Puppets gradually weakened, and humans quickly gained the upper hand.

After intense combat, they were all exterminated.

Rod finished off about over one hundred Flesh Puppets, and the souls he collected made the Book of Knowledge smile with contentment, meaning that for a period of time in the future, the Dream Realm would no longer lack souls.

With the end of the battle, the golden light arrived as promised.

Calamities and difficulties dispelled, humanity saved, Divinity +10

Not bad!

Rod felt rather pleased in his heart.

In this battle, his contribution wasn’t the greatest, yet he still gained 10 points of Divinity.

And at least 5 points belonged to Asa.

It seems this Devourer of Excrement King indeed has some use; in the future, I must find ways to capture more Ancient Evil Thoughts and high-quality excrement for him.

Rod contemplated in his heart, and together with Qingyu and others, followed Evela to the center of the team.

This intense battle had exhausted nearly all the strength of this team, so much so that after the fight ended, the warriors lay scattered on the ground, without even the strength to cheer.

Once again, Horus became the busiest person; each warrior he healed expressed deep gratitude, but he couldn’t understand and could only silently treat each one.

An elderly man with white hair stumbled forward from the team, and as soon as his clouded eyes saw Evela, tears began to flow uncontrollably.

"Second Saintess, it truly is you, it truly is you! Great Heavenly God be praised, you have not died! You have not died!"

He was so unsteady on his feet that he almost fell, and Evela quickly caught him, asking anxiously.

"Your Excellency the Great Shepherd, what happened in Mist City? Why are you here? Where did these Flesh Puppets come from?"

The elderly man, known as the Great Shepherd, was filled with sorrow and anxiety in his eyes and hurriedly said, "Lady Evela, hurry, you must lead your team to aid the Royal City; something has happened there. With the aid of you and Lord Safuk, His Holiness the Pope will surely turn danger into safety!"
