Devil's Bible

Chapter 389 Grand Commander

Clement was excommunicated by the church.

This expulsion is not simply a matter of the person no longer being a member of the church.

Instead, all his information was sealed away, and everyone who knew of his existence was no longer allowed to utter his name.

At the same time, all traces of him will be erased, and he will disappear completely from this world.

There was only one code name waiting for him—a sinner.

Subsequently, most of the people associated with Clement were also arrested.

Those with close ties to the authorities were imprisoned and convicted without explanation or interrogation.

Those with only a superficial relationship were also interrogated multiple times about whether they had had any deeper contact with Clement.

Even among those in the steel industry, many lost their status and positions and were convicted of crimes during this process.

After all, Clement had been a follower of the Demon Cult and had been protecting the Twin Demons for so many years.

He could never control all the information on his own.

It's impossible for there to be absolutely no abnormalities; there must have been many irregularities involved.

Why were these violations not reported? These anomalies might normally be minor issues, and some seasoned veterans in the Black Stone Cult could skip the procedures and ignore them.

But now, it has become something that could be deadly.

The Twin Demons planted so many contingency plans on the back of the Azure Whale, and if these plans hadn't been largely disrupted by the fabricated agreement, they might have actually allowed the Twin Demons to forcefully push forward the appearance of the Abyss Gate.

If the area where certain clergy members serve happens to be under the influence of the Twin Demons' scheme, and there are indeed unusual signs, then the clergy members serving in that area will most likely regret it to death.

The newly built cathedral is far less grand than before, and to the naked eye, it still has many rough edges.

As soon as Nemes entered, he heard someone trembling and crying.

"I did report the anomaly at the time, and the re-examination showed no problems!" The clergyman was trembling all over and could not stand steadily. He was only able to stay upright because of the two paladins next to him.

He is a pastor from Zhongping Town who came to Qiquan City a few years ago.

While he was in Zhongping Town, a paladin on patrol noticed some unusual animal claw marks.

So he went over to investigate and confirmed that the claw marks were somewhat unusual, so he decided to report it.

According to church rules, such anomalies require multiple investigations, followed by covert surveillance.

Finally, here is the previous report.

However, in order to save trouble, he found nothing during the second investigation, so he randomly picked a dangerous creature as the source of the claw marks and reported it as normal.

However, it has now been determined that the claw marks in that place came from a demon, and a demon with some twin demon blood, namely Kru's nominal half-brother.

However, Kru's twin demon bloodline and human bloodline are well integrated. Although he did not obtain his mother's divine bloodline traits, he acquired various twin demon abilities, and his body has largely remained normal.

His brother fared much worse; one of his bodies became that of a wild beast, while the other was underdeveloped with deformed limbs.

That's how it is with mixed-race people; if they're lucky, they can naturally acquire good talents, but if they're unlucky, they'll be in trouble.

So Krue's brother chose to join the Devil Worship Cult, hoping to change his situation through his father.

Nearly three thousand people died in Zhongping Town this time, and he was the main culprit.

Unfortunately, the pastor was able to transfer from Zhongping Town to Qiquan City a few years ago through connections with Clement, a steelworker with whom he was definitely involved.

The two pieces of evidence were combined, so the court came to arrest the person today.

Similar things have been happening almost every day for the past two weeks.

“He most likely really doesn’t know,” Nems said after seeing this.

The officers from the arbitration institution who were arrested immediately perked up and readily agreed.

The priest's complexion had improved considerably, and he kept thanking Nemus. In fact, such matters are difficult to define, so they are generally presumed guilty, meaning the priest himself was involved with Clement and the Twin Demons.

If he is arrested like this, given the current shortage of manpower, he is very likely to be sentenced to death quickly.

But now, Nemes's words, while not enough to exonerate him, at least do not warrant the death penalty.

The fact that Nemus can sense emotions has become widely known over time, as some nobles are inevitably involved.

Nobles have privileges and often have far-reaching implications, so it's not appropriate to apply a blanket approach.

Thus, Nemes' perception of emotions was used in this regard.

His assessment of this person's emotions will become important evidence.

Nemes's words were tantamount to saving his life.

He may be held accountable for dereliction of duty or other reasons, but at least he won't be implicated in any serious crimes.

Nems nodded and continued walking into the church.

A casual remark like that could save a life—it's worth it no matter how you look at it.

As expected, the other party will become his staunch supporter.

He could already sense the overwhelming gratitude the other person was feeling.

Next, Nems didn't even need to do anything; the other party would naturally rally around him.

then……

The real demonic church has formed a connection with a fictitious agreement.

During this period, there were many people like this.

Nems may never need them in his lifetime, but if a few of them can play a role when needed, then at a crucial moment, he can use them to deliver a heavy blow to the church.

After traversing most of the church, Nemes arrived at a room located towards the back of the center.

Several golden-type individuals were already seated here.

Killieman did not sit in the main seat, but rather on the side.

Once this signal was sent, Nems knew that Guilliman would likely be leaving Azure soon.

There is no longer any space he left behind here.

He will most likely head to the front lines of the church where conflicts are intense, to fight against other churches, cults, and various dangerous groups.

After all, it is a golden seed, and it is impossible to really waste it. Instead, we will take advantage of this opportunity to exploit it.

Gotthard sat on the other side, a warm smile on his face.

However, Nemus could sense that he was in a bad mood.

At that moment, another golden seed stood not far away, his expression calm.

Upon seeing Nems, she smiled and nodded to Nems.

At this moment, Nems knew that everything was in place.

The other party is a top-tier gold-type specimen from the headquarters of the Discipline Church, already valued at a full thousand.

Her name is Garice Mott.

"Congratulations, Nemus."

"Next, you will be the Grand Master of the Azure Whale!" She congratulated Nemus with a smile and presented him with the church's official appointment letter.
