Chapter 809: Chapter 417: Platinum Giant Elephant and Knight of Love, The God War Reignites
Tal Griffin slowly closed his eyes.
Louis, oh Louis, can you achieve the redemption they dream of?
He turned his head to look towards the sky.
Considering the time, the dark side of the God of Love should be taking action by now, right?
...
Location: God of Love Church
A cardinal was quietly kneeling in front of the statue, praying.
After a long while, he lifted his head and said:
"Sack, come in."
A Knight of Love carrying a huge longbow entered, knelt on one knee, and said:
"Bishop Mark, the intel has been confirmed."
"The dark side of the God of Love has started moving, correct?"
"Yes, based on the intelligence our informants obtained, they are highly likely collaborating with Tal Griffin."
"That Griffin’s platinum giant elephant?" Bishop Mark frowned and said, "That is not an easy opponent to deal with; why would he think of collaborating with the dark side of the God of Love?"
"Bishop Mark, should we mobilize the core personnel to take action? The Demon King Army’s offensive on the border has slowed down."
After pondering for a moment, Bishop Mark shook his head and sighed: "Summon back a portion of the elite, let the others continue to guard the border."
"But the matter with the dark side of the God of Love... shakes the very foundation of the church."
"It won’t; if the God of Love Church could be shaken by something so simple, we would have been removed from the top churches on the continent a long time ago."
"Yes, Bishop."
Sack Knight actually had many doubts in his heart.
He somewhat couldn’t comprehend Bishop Mark’s thoughts.
The dark side of the God of Love has fewer activities this past year than before, but that is due to their core team being severely damaged.
Eliminate the roots thoroughly so that with new winds they won’t grow again; this world naturally has similar proverbs.
At a time like this, one shouldn’t allow the opponent to catch their breath. Instead, we should capitalize on our victory and strike them so they have no way to rise again — that’s the correct choice.
But the church’s top brass seems not so eager about this matter.
Lately, they’ve been focusing their energy on stabilizing the circle of God of Love followers and eradicating evil forces.
One could even say their passion for reclaiming Lady Xilin’s legacy surpasses their zeal for attacking the dark side followers of the God of Love.
This is very strange.
It’s important to know, as a Knight of Love Church, he knows far more than the outside world.
No one understands better than he how disturbing the dark side of the God of Love and its followers are.
They are anomalies born from blending some of Lady Xilin’s philosophies.
If they were only that kind, benevolent lady, he wouldn’t feel disgust or fear at all.
But the issue is, the substance making up the dark side of the God of Love includes quite a significant part of Succubus racial divinity, and most importantly... the wicked divine power of Slaanesh.
Though the Four Evil Gods differ in their direction of expertise, leading to vastly different reputations among the people, in their own realms, they stand as virtually uncrowned kings.
As long as there is need, desire is born. Where there is desire, conspiracies weave, thus calculations never cease. Battles among people, nations, and the world remain endless, and Jianqi never finds peace.
Disease has never vanished from the world, lurking silently deep within every group’s body, hastening their demise, while large-scale pandemics are the most beloved delicacy of Nurgle.
As long as there is benefit, unrest arises. When dialogue fails to solve dilemmas, fists become the weapon of discourse. When nations can’t reconcile, war erupts, and laughter can be heard amidst the blood, the voice of Khorne’s mockery.
Compared to Jianqi, Nurgle, and Khorne, Slaanesh might seem relatively harmless to some viewing them purely as Evil Gods.
Indeed, fantasies about certain colors of Slaanesh have never ceased.
Even among the populace, there’s quite a number of Slaaneshi Cultists pretending as artists, selling hand-drawn books of Slaanesh’s love exchanges with certain believers.
But the reality?
Anyone daring to utter a single praise about Slaanesh is either foolish or malevolent.
Families left in ruins; trust shattered between lovers; households in perpetual unrest; lovers without the fruit of love...
Purely from the perspective of area covered and impact range, Slaanesh is indisputably a global disaster.
Such an Evil God could never be as amiable as portrayed in illustrations.
Merely the imaginations of a group of fools before their demise.
Sack Knight’s eyes gradually drooped.
"Bishop, oh Bishop, don’t make any mistakes!"
His voice increasingly grew lower.
His instincts told him that Bishop’s current demeanor was quite off.
But he lacked sufficient evidence to prove it.
Especially Mingming, as the most central spiritual pillar sent by the God of Love Church to the Lokeshi Empire, exhibiting inadequate levels of focus on spreading faith and attention to the expedition army.
Sack Knight pondered for quite some time, ultimately unable to shake off his inner concerns.
He decided not to place all his hopes on the Bishop.
He needed to leave a back path for the church, something he should bear as the executor and a Demigod under God’s command.
"If it’s that Knight of the Scorching Sun, perhaps he would consider our opinions."
A figure emerged in his mind.
That was the last core battle force of the Sunset Church, also an elite Demigod truly born of this land.
Compared to other Demigods, he was more free and far stronger.
Most importantly, born here, he’s willing to give everything to protect his country.
"Go and have a talk with him, hope everything doesn’t lead to the most unacceptable outcome."
