Devil's Bible

Chapter 507 Moon Beast
Nems squinted and looked closely.

The moonlight, like insects, burrowed into their bodies.

The several bound sacrificial animals writhed and twisted wildly, as if trying to shake off the insects that had burrowed inside.

Unfortunately, none of this was of any use.

As the insects burrowed in, the people's bodies began to swell rapidly.

Then it quickly transformed into a gigantic creature.

They possess enormous, slimy, grayish-white bodies that can freely expand and contract. Their form—though frequently changing—generally resembles an eyeless toad, with a cluster of short, constantly trembling pink tentacles at the tip of its indistinct, blunt snout.

The following information flashed through Nemus's mind: it was a record of a creature called a Moon Beast from a book he had previously consulted from the Earth Church.

It clearly states that these creatures only live under the moonlight; they are a special group of beings who were transformed from humans through prayer to the moon.

These special creatures are born with the ability to enslave other life forms.

Once their tentacles come into contact with other living beings, they burrow into their bodies.

These tentacles, like parasites, are half rooted in the body of the living organism and half rooted in its dreams.

In both of these ways, other life forms are completely enslaved, thus becoming senior servants.

Several moon beasts transformed from humans wept hysterically at this moment. Looking at their smooth yet sticky skin, a sense of despair, that their personalities were rapidly collapsing, welled up in their hearts.

But at that moment, the words of those people echoed in their minds—think of their wives and children.

Their remaining humanity seems to have been preserved.

At the same time, after they transformed into moon beasts, their level of life underwent a tremendous leap.

According to Nems, their life level had been elevated to the level of the Iron Species immediately after their transformation.

Meanwhile, the moonlight fell upon them, and their stats were quickly replenished in the process.

Nemus had only ever seen this rate of replenishment on the Prayer Angels before.

It must be said that the technology and abilities of these deities far exceed the comprehension of ordinary people.

Even the fictional beings of Nemus still need to utilize technologies like berserk accessories and soul accessories to become Steel-type beings with over thirty stat points.

Right now, the Moon Goddess alone can rapidly transform life and increase the other party's stats from a distance using the ritual of moonlight.

Within seconds, the stats of these moon beasts had reached approximately one hundred, making them fully stat-based steel-type creatures.

This life force immediately attracted the surrounding calamity creatures.

They are extremely sensitive to the life force. Once life has a certain value, even if the life force is slightly stronger, they will immediately encounter the aura of these calamity-causing creatures.

Most of these calamity creatures are also of the Iron-type level.

After they appeared here, they began circling around these moon beasts.

They could clearly sense that something was wrong.

But it was at this moment that the moon beasts began to move.

Driven by their instincts, they charged toward the calamity creatures, their pink tentacles twitching wildly as they reached out and slid toward the bodies of the various calamity creatures, searching for openings.

Once these things find a hole, they will quickly extend into it and complete their parasitism.

Those calamity creatures naturally wouldn't allow these moon beasts to parasitize them.

Its entire body was enveloped in black energy, and its limbs seemed to transform into afterimages as it frantically attacked the moon beast, each strike carrying an extremely dense aura of calamity.

These auras clung to the moon beasts, and the higher the concentration, the greater the probability of these moon beasts dying instantly with each passing moment. One moon beast was particularly unlucky; it didn't even have time to react before its life force instantly ceased.

A calamity-inducing creature rapidly approached, and the moon beast was instantly absorbed, turning into a dried-up corpse.

After absorbing the transformed power of the Moon Beast, this calamity creature rapidly changed, showing faint signs of advancing to the Golden Species.

At that moment, another moon beast suddenly pounced, and its pink tentacles wrapped around the calamity creature's head.

Various tiny tentacles quickly burrowed into the mouth and nose of the calamity creature.

The calamity-inducing creature struggled frantically, but to no avail.

The moon beast's tentacles are also covered in a lot of mucus, which makes them extremely slippery.

It entered the body the moment it burrowed in.

It then swiftly pierced into the flesh and organs of the calamity creature.

The symbiosis was completed in almost just a few seconds.

Even though the calamity creature possessed an extremely dense concentration of calamity power, this symbiotic state did not cause any harm to the moon beast's tentacles.

Soon the calamity-ridden creature closed its eyes and sank into a dream.

On the other side, the other moon beasts and calamity creatures also quickly determined their victors.

All the moon beasts died, but most of the calamity creatures present were also parasitized by the moon beast tentacles.

The remaining uninfested calamity creatures seemed to sense something and quickly fled the area.

As for these parasitized calamity creatures, they began to walk into the cave following some kind of sensation.

Nems watched this scene and then followed behind.

While we should be wary of all the schemes devised by the gods, we shouldn't be so quick to back down whenever we encounter any scheme.

Because, as it stands, most things in the world are likely related to deities.

Not making contact rashly does not mean avoiding contact altogether.

Although gods are powerful, they also have many things to pay attention to.

In this process, as long as the core issues are not touched and one's own traces are concealed, it will be difficult for the gods to discover the person hiding behind the scenes using conventional methods.

As for unconventional methods, these deities generally wouldn't choose to expend that effort unless something unusual happens.

At most, they'll check on the changes in fate.

This information was learned by Nemus from the demonic legacy of the demon lord.

After all, a demon lord needs to cause trouble in the prime material plane, which requires a certain level of theology.

If one is not proficient in this skill, then it is virtually impossible for the Demon Lord to sink the plane and the floating whale.

Nemus has relevant methods to avoid this, and he also possesses some methods of manipulating and disguising fate.

Wearing some disguise, Nemus gradually walked into the cave.

During this process, Nemus sensed the combined effect of spiritual and spatial forces.

Then Nems arrived at a flower field.
