The Demon's Left Arm hovered in the air.
At this moment, the arm was unusually excited, because its grand feast was about to begin.
The temple and statues were destroyed, and the players' faith completely collapsed. Now they had no reason to fight.
Faced with Demon whose power far exceeded their expectations, they had no choice but to flee.
But the arm caught up, and as soon as it touched them, the players' life force was instantly absorbed, turning them into withered corpses.
The screams of the players echoed continuously, and the number of dried corpses on the ground kept increasing. Meanwhile, the Demon's arm, after absorbing the power of so many players, continued to repair its cracks.
After the last player fell to the ground, the cracks in his arm had been completely repaired, and the arm was no longer so withered; it had regained some vitality.
But it still looks like the arm of a mummified corpse, very different from the arm of a normal person.
"After absorbing so many people, he's still like this?"
Shen Hao felt somewhat helpless. Although he really wanted to get this arm, once he had it, he would look almost like a monster, which was too eye-catching.
But now, there aren't many living people left here.
He looked at the high priest, who was the only living person besides himself.
At this moment, the high priest was staring wide-eyed at all of this, and even now, he still couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Temples and statues are essential tools for establishing a connection with one's god; how could they possibly be destroyed like this? They represent the power of the god.
This is absolutely unreasonable.
Moreover, everything happened so suddenly, without any warning, it was like a dream.
He felt like he was dreaming.
At this moment, he still couldn't accept reality; it was too cruel.
He spent his entire life preparing for God's coming to this world; he gave everything, but in the end, it was all for nothing.
He has failed completely; God can no longer descend unless someone spends nearly a hundred years building a new temple and statues.
But he clearly won't live to see that day.
He looked at the Demon, his eyes filled with resentment.
This Demon destroyed all his hard work, and so easily destroyed everything he had.
He must make that Demon pay the price!
Just as he was about to fight the Demon to the death, he regained a sliver of his sanity.
Although he lost, he cannot simply end his life, because that would be too irresponsible.
He cannot die yet, at least not before God's permission.
Because he had already dedicated everything to the gods, including his life.
Just then, the arm suddenly flew towards him, about to grab him, but he immediately used his ability to teleport to another location.
The arm followed him, teleporting behind him in an instant. He knew it was impossible to dodge it.
But as the high priest of God, he also had many methods.
Fortunately, he was already prepared to escape; his soul was ready to leave his body.
Even if he were grabbed by that arm right now, he could still manage to escape.
Soon, the arm grabbed his neck, consuming his strength, but at that moment, his soul also quietly left his body.
The high priest's body turned into a dried-up corpse, but his soul escaped and instantly traveled to a very distant place.
Shen Hao looked at the desiccated corpse of the high priest on the ground. The Demon's arm had brought more life to the corpse, making the arm no longer look so withered.
As expected of the High Priest, the power contained within him is unmatched by those players.
However, it was still somewhat regrettable, as he also saw that the high priest's soul had already departed prematurely.
Although his body had turned into a mummified corpse, his soul remained.
Letting that high priest leave alive would severely damage the Demon's reputation.
Shen Hao decided he couldn't let him get away with it.
Even if it requires expending a large amount of Fear Points, he must kill the high priest.
He began to use his Eye of Cause and Effect to search for the High Priest's whereabouts.
The high priest's soul possessed a body, and once the soul and body were completely integrated, he opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw a woman.
"God's Messenger!" The high priest hurriedly rose to his feet, appearing extremely respectful.
That woman was a messenger of God, from another world, and one of God's most faithful believers.
The woman said, "You've returned, but only your soul has returned; your original body has been destroyed. It seems you've suffered a crushing defeat."
"Yes, things have turned out this way, disappointing God."
I had no face to return, but I had to, because I had already given everything to God, so...
I had to come back; without God's permission, I wouldn't even have the right to die.
"I believe you are still loyal to God."
"Thank you, God's Messenger, but I... I still lost. I delayed God's important business and prevented God from coming. I am guilty. Please God's Messenger God that I await His punishment!"
"God doesn't have time to concern himself with your affairs," the woman said with a smile.
"However, you did not delay God's work, because you were meant to be the target of the fire, so it didn't matter whether you won or lost."
You are not as important as you think; you are not enough to influence our God!
The high priest stared blankly at the woman before him, somewhat puzzled.
He clearly messed things up, so how could it have no impact on God?
Furthermore, what does it mean to call him a target? Does it mean that God will never actually descend upon his temple, and he is merely used to attract the attention of Demons?
The woman didn't explain, and continued talking to herself.
"No matter what happens, God will be here, and this outcome will not change."
The high priest hurriedly asked, "You mean there's still a chance to turn things around, that God will return to this world? When? And what do you need me to do?"
"You don't need to do anything. Your existence was only to deceive the remnants of the Lord of the Netherworld. Now you are of no use whatsoever."
Upon hearing this, the high priest felt a chill run through him.
He gave everything to God, and if God no longer needed him, then his life would have no meaning.
Tell me, when will God come?
The woman laughed, "At this moment, right now!"
The high priest found it hard to believe. "You mean, God will descend upon this world right now?"
"Yes, He has now arrived."
"God has come to this world?" the high priest asked excitedly.
"Yes, He has already descended into this world, and He is about to become the god of this world!"
The high priest's face was filled with shock, and his feelings were extremely complicated.
He was excited by God's presence, but also disappointed that he hadn't done anything.
He spent his whole life working for God, but he never imagined that God didn't need him at all.
