Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The way those n.o.bles look at us is like were nothing more than livestock
Suddenly, within this closed and dark hall, many believers began to lament the wicked deeds of the n.o.bles and their lackeys. The emotions of anger and sorrow infected other believers, causing them to recall the injustices they had suffered.
This made Jons expression shake as well, images of his own mistreatment by the n.o.bles flas.h.i.+ng through his mind. He couldnt help but curse, d.a.m.n n.o.bles!
The priest, observing this scene, displayed a satisfied expression on his face.
Taking advantage of the increasingly intense emotions of the believers, he spoke loudly.
But the appearance of the Lord has changed everything!
The Archbishop told me that the Lord is willing to bestow abundant blessings upon us, granting us the power to resist the n.o.bles!
As long as all the brothers and sisters here can receive the blessings personally bestowed by the Archbishop!
In the pa.s.sage leading to the front of the hall, suddenly, a wriggling sound was heard. Amid the expectant gaze of numerous believers, a tall figure walked out.
However, the appearance of this figure left the believers breathless.
It had a humanoid body with a grotesque and eerie form, its pallid bones exposed, grayish-blue muscles intertwined between the bones. Its hands had mutated with sharp, grayish-blue claws, and instead of human facial features, there were several horizontal strips of flesh. Fins and similar organs adorned its neck and body.
What sent s.h.i.+vers down ones spine the most was the fact that it had no legs; it moved using a hem of flesh and blood composed of tentacles wrapped around its waist, writhing and undulating.
The priest spoke in a hoa.r.s.e voice, This is the Lords blessing. We should accept it sincerely and praise the Lords generosity!
Is this the Archbishop?
Oh my, its so repulsive and horrifying. I dont want to become such a monster
Such a non-human appearance instantly generated a sense of rejection among many believers. The excitement they had felt earlier subsided in an instant.
I dont want this power anymore. 1 want to leave the church
A young believer who recently joined the church also wanted to leave, but as soon as he turned to run towards the pa.s.sage, he was knocked to the ground. The priests hand had transformed into a tentacle, piercing through the young believers chest, and blood quickly spread beneath his body.
Going against the Lords will shall incur punishment.
The strong smell of blood made other believers s.h.i.+ver, dispelling any thoughts of leaving.
Seeing this, the priest smirked and turned to the monstrous figure the Archbishop.
Your Excellency, Archbishop, please purify these lost believers and let them join us, into the embrace of the Lord and the deep sea!
The Archbishop, with its writhing tentacle hem, moved forward and suddenly opened a large hole in its chest. It extended a small, thin tentacle, which forcefully pierced into the body of the frontmost believer.
What followed was the injection of some kind of liquid into the believers body. His face contorted in pain, and he let out agonizing screams. His body developed numerous b.u.mps, his skin peeled away, and his facial features changed. Tentacles emerged from the b.u.mps
In just under half a minute, this believer transformed into a monstrous ent.i.ty of tentacles and flesh.
This horrifying scene made the other believers tremble, and they couldnt help but try to escape from this place. However, without exception, they were all killed by the priest with his tentacles and brought before the transformed tentacled monstrosity to be devoured.
The priests eyes gleamed with benevolence. Feast, my brothers and sisters. Embrace evolution with serenity; this is the Lords gift. We are destined to come into this world to fulfill the will of the Lord.
While the underground hall was in the midst of a cult-like conversion ritual, the door of the house above suddenly rang.
The middle-aged man guarding the door leaned cautiously against it, asking in a hushed voice, Who is it?
Open up! Tressburg City Guards!
