Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 212: Elimination of Saints
"The people from the foreign continent are nothing more than a group of bandits. It's ridiculous that you have abandoned the gods and placed your hopes on bandits."

Even though he was imprisoned, the king still maintained his composure and just sneered.

"No, this is the revelation given to me by Quetzalcoatl."

Tuzulla XVI's short words made the Second King sneer, but he remained unmoved and just knelt firmly where he was.

"Great Amaia, I, Anleston Duzulla, am willing to give up the shackles of the secular king and bloodline, serve by your side, and help you destroy the five demons."

Nemesis raised his eyebrows. A powerful person who was at the pseudo-legendary level and had both professions reached the pseudo-legendary level actually wanted to become his servant.

Putting oneself in such a low position is not something a shaman who believes in gods would do.

Thinking of the five-headed demons mentioned by the other party, Nemesis understood.

Quetzalcoatl originally built five mausoleums and palaces on the Maztec continent, sealing in five legendary elects who were loyal to Zaltek and his lackeys. This secret is unknown to most people.

Since King Tuzula XVI knew about it, it must be the order issued by Quetzalcoatl behind the scenes.

The same is probably true of the loyalty we are showing now.

As for the so-called Amaia, it was just something Nemesis made up at the time.

It would be fine if ordinary people believed him, but he didn't think that a shaman who was close to being a legend would believe such an outrageous thing.

After thinking this through, he nodded in agreement.

"You did well, Nemesis. Duzura II was originally the second strongest among the five chosen ones I sealed. You were able to defeat him. Your strength is truly the fastest among all the dragons I have ever seen."

The voice of Quetzalcoatl Quart rang in Nemesis' ears. As if he sensed the arrival of the divine being he believed in, Andrestone bowed his head devoutly and prayed silently.

"Second in strength? Didn't you say the remaining ones are dangerous? If they are all like this, I think I can wipe them out one by one right now."

Nemesis looked at the trapped Duzura II with disdain in his big dragon eyes. Apart from the legendary magic that came with the artifact, he thought it would not be too difficult for him to defeat the guy in front of him.

"Don't underestimate them!" Quart's voice was serious.

"Duzulla II's original strength was much stronger than what he shows now. He was one of the strongest legendary shamans alive back then."

"The seal has absorbed some of his strength over the years, but it won't cause his strength to weaken to such an extent that he can't even cast a few magic spells."

"I'm afraid there's something wrong with Tezca."

Quetzalcoatl guessed solemnly: "Tezca and Zartek are both sealed in the Pole Star Camp. Logically speaking, apart from relying on the instinct of the divine fire to grant divine arts to believers, it is impossible for them to do anything else."

"But my seal has been broken."

"The door to the bedroom of King Duzulla II is sealed with the same magic that I used to seal the strongest Chosen One of Zaltek. It requires a spell of at least legendary level to remove it."

"Now that the seal has been lifted, I'm afraid Tezca secretly used some means to forcibly break the seal."

"According to my guess, the first possibility is that he secretly passed down the true divine power and destroyed the seal, but this possibility is almost non-existent. If he really has the ability to bypass the seal of the Great One and project power, I'm afraid I would have died long ago."

"The second possibility is that he performed a remote [Exorcism] ritual."

Nemesis was a little surprised. The word "Exorcism" had appeared in the memory inheritance of the Volume Dragon, but there was almost no information describing its content. "What is the Exorcism Ceremony?" Nemesis asked curiously.

“It’s a ritual to disenfranchise the voters.”

"The elect are the gods' representatives walking on earth. The gods split their supreme authority and merged it into the flesh of the elect. This has resulted in the elect having the ability to be immortal like the gods, and they can also exercise some of the gods' authority with the gods' permission."

"When the gods wish to take back their lost authority, or simply want their chosen people to return to heaven to serve their Lord, they will perform a ceremony called [Exorcism]."

"Sacrifice a priest who is devoted to himself, and use his soul to draw out the power of authority that is integrated into the elect."

"If the power of Duzulla II's authority is absorbed, the control of the gods will be restored. If this power is used in reality, it will be easy to break the legendary power seal."

Nemesis suddenly realized and looked at the trapped Duzulla II. The other party had only displayed the power of a legendary warrior, but except for a [Dimension Anchor], he had hardly used any shaman skills. Even that legendary magic was released by a divine artifact.

The reason why the situation is so embarrassing is probably because the power of voters has disappeared without a trace.

Shaman is, after all, also a priest profession. Being deprived of the qualification of a voter is equivalent to losing the grace of God. As a profession that relies on the gods, it is natural that the priest profession may fall overnight.

As for the current opponent, I’m afraid that the Shaman profession has already fallen to the middle to low level.

"Even though you've lost the Chosen's power of immortality, it will take a lot of effort for you to completely kill a legendary warrior. Do you need my help?"

Nemesis shook his head and rejected Quetzalcoatl's proposal. The legendary warriors' recovery ability had reached a mysterious level, and those who were proficient in this could even achieve the level of "rebirth by a drop of blood".

The Tuzulla II in front of him had not reached that level yet, but if he had only a head left, he would probably be able to survive.

Faced with such an enemy, the legendary wizard also had a headache.

Most of the time, only the ethereal, mysterious and difficult to defend legendary prophecy spells, and the legendary enchantment spells that are good at attacking the mental world, are the best ways to deal with these enemies with mindless defenses.

Nemesis now wanted to try whether the power of distortion was effective on them.

The dragon's huge purple eyes were like a lake with swirling ripples. An invisible force filled the air, making Duzula II inexplicably irritable.

"Let me go, let me go!!"

He roared and struggled, but it was useless. Soon, he knew what the power that frightened him was.

The heaven and earth reversed, and every direction, up and down, left and right, front and back, was shrouded in opposite twisting forces. The force began to twist and pull his body wantonly like an invisible giant hand.

His skin first began to deform strangely, as if countless invisible hands were kneading it, and his originally smooth skin became wrinkled, like crumpled paper. Then, his muscles began to twist and twitch uncontrollably, like crazy twisting snakes.

Under the twisting force, the bones made creepy "crunching" sounds, constantly bending and dislocating, and the shape of the whole body became extremely strange, completely different from that of a normal human being.

“Aaaaaaahhhh, no!!!”

His screams did not last long. As the twisting force continued to grow, his body began to gradually collapse. His flesh and blood seemed to be sucked into an invisible meat grinder, being torn into pieces and turned into blood mist that drifted in the air.

Finally, under the influence of the twisting force, not even a trace of residue was left, and the blood mist in the air was torn into invisible ashes by the twisting force, as if Tuzula II had never existed in this world, leaving only a heart-wrenching silence.

"Is this authority?!"
