Devil's Bible

Chapter 235 Bone Monster
He was simultaneously rescuing people and defending against attacks.

Coupled with the power of her previous judgment, Isabella's appearance alone changed the course of the battle.

Originally, the Dartmanley family members could have held a certain advantage thanks to their fearless and courageous fighting.

But now, defeat has already occurred.

Some of the Dartmenley members, no longer able to fight, fled into the distance.

"I am a nobleman, I don't want to be a commoner, I don't want to..." the man shouted in despair, threw down his sword, and ran off in the other direction.

Isabella squinted, then raised her hand, a point of light condensed in front of her, and then a beam of light shot out, piercing through the escapee's calf.

Divine Art: Divine Light Finger!
This divine spell is the signature magic of the Prayer Angel.

It has powerful attack capabilities and an extremely long attack range.

After completing the attack, Isabella then used a stun spell to amplify her voice.

"Surrender and await trial!"

Isabella's voice was originally very gentle, but now it was full of majesty and had a great sense of oppression!
The already fragile psychological defenses of some Dartmentians were instantly shattered.

However, there are still many who are stubbornly resisting.

Perhaps they loved their family deeply, or perhaps they rationally understood that even if they surrendered, they had already decided when their family openly attacked the church's institutions that they could not possibly survive.

Even if they have connections in Qiquan City to protect them, it's useless.

Although the Discipline Church headquarters grants sufficient autonomy to local churches due to the distance between the whale's back and the church, the headquarters of the Discipline Church does not grant sufficient autonomy to local churches.

However, when it comes to matters concerning the dignity of the church, the church will never back down.

Furthermore, D'Artemli is connected to the bloodline of the Saints, so headquarters might send even more Golden Seeds over.

Knowing that they had no chance of surviving, these people became even more frantic and launched attacks on the others after discovering their own defeat.

"You all should die!!!" someone shouted, his eyes filled with hatred for these people.

“We are of noble holy blood, we are more noble than you, all because of you. You lowly people, why do you work hard? Why don’t you give us resources and opportunities!”

This kind of resentment is perfectly normal for members of the Dartmenley family.

The bloodline of saints despises the bloodline of gold, and the bloodline of gold despises the bloodlines of its branches.

The branch bloodline despises merchants, while merchants despise the common people.

The common people, however, also looked down on those untouchables who lived in the slums.

The existence of a pyramid-like hierarchy of contempt does not mean that those with a particular bloodline are guaranteed success.

Or rather, they absolutely do not want to see any individual outside their social class rise to prominence and achieve a change in social class in terms of power.

They particularly revered the doctrine of 'order' within the Disciplined Church.

That means everyone's identity is fixed.

The descendants of a priest are priests, and the descendants of a nobleman are nobles.

Everyone should stay in their proper place and not overstep their bounds.

In his heart, even if he couldn't break through to the Iron Seed level, he should still become a high-ranking member of the church based on his Saintly bloodline.

Those people should give him resources and opportunities so that he can continue to climb the ladder after he is promoted to a higher position.

This seniority-based system may sound silly, but it is admired by many people.

However, a closer look at those who are being praised reveals that they generally lack other talents or other praiseworthy qualities.

Thus, the bloodline identity they were born with became something they revered.

In their view, talent, hard work, and cultivation are all too unstable; the identity inherited through bloodline is much more stable.

To maintain order to the greatest extent possible. With this image of order in mind, Isabella frowned slightly, then coldly issued the order: "Any rebel, without trial, be shot on the spot."

"We're going in to provide support; the battle inside hasn't stopped yet!" Isabella's body, under the direct control of her mental power and with the aid of support spells, moved quite quickly.

They quickly passed through the gradually stabilizing encampment and entered the interior of the prison.

The interior was in complete chaos at that moment.

Many people were arrested in the church's prison.

These people had committed crimes ranging from minor to serious, but as the fighting began, the prison guards were too busy to keep an eye on them, especially after some of them accidentally discovered the keys to the shackles and chains they had borrowed, which sparked a prison riot.

"The church's support has arrived. Those who obediently return to prison will have their crimes unchanged. Anyone still outside will have their crimes compounded, and those who harm clergy will have their crimes compounded twice!"

The resolute voice calmed down many prisoners who were looking for an opportunity to escape and cause trouble.

The range of sins committed by the church can be quite wide.

Adding a degree or two to the sentence could turn a crime that would have only resulted in a few years of imprisonment into a death sentence.

It's not worth it, there's no need.

Therefore, as those with clear minds gave up causing trouble, the riots in the prison were quickly brought under control.

But Isabella quickly realized the problem—"Where are Op and the others?!"

Faced with Isabella's question, many of the clergy who had just stopped fighting were completely bewildered.

They also did not discover when Op and his men opened their prison or when they disappeared without a trace.

Upon witnessing this scene, Isabella immediately realized that there was definitely a mole within the church prison belonging to Nemes.

Now that Op and the others who were captured are gone, Dong-hyuk's previous whistleblower letter is less effective against Nems.

Then, Isabella discovered something that made her frown even more.

Deep within the prison, the body of Dong-hyuk, the sender of that whistleblower letter, lay quietly not far away.

Meanwhile, the captains of the fourth and sixth teams, who were not far away, were also seriously injured and lay on the ground unable to get up.

There were holes everywhere around.

Upon seeing Isabella arrive, he was healed and then forced to approach her to explain what had happened.

It turns out that Donghyuk himself did not die.

He was instantly killed by Zovin with a single sword strike, his neck slit.

Due to excessive blood loss and the mental changes caused by extreme anger, he fainted.

Then Daros and Zovin quickly engaged in a fierce battle.

The fight between the two went well at first.

As the captain of the sixth team also chased in from outside, the two of them joined the battle.

But soon, the battle entered a state that they couldn't understand.

Zovin's body quickly blended into the shadows and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

As for Daros, he was even more terrifying. The sacred bone that was originally meant to be the medium for unlocking the Saint's Path was crushed by him and swallowed whole.

Then, they drank some kind of medicine without knowing what it was.

It was precisely these actions that caused Daros to undergo some unknown transformation.

He then completely lost control and became a skeletal monster.
