It took quite a bit of explaining to tell all this.
In reality, it all happened within just a few breaths.
A calculated ambush against an unsuspecting target—by the time Lamborghini Bull reacted, the four great nets had already interlocked flawlessly.
A smile bloomed across the lead Masked Guest's face.
As False God hunters of the Heaven Punishing Bureau, they might go three years without a job, but one job could feed them for three years.
Privately gathering Merit meant Soul Annihilation.
This was a divine decree; mortals could not defy it.
They were not qualified to come into contact with deities, but the Heaven Punishing Bureau's rewards for capturing those who privately gathered Merit, along with all their accomplices, were astonishingly generous.
False Gods were rare, and the rewards could pierce the heavens.
Even catching an accomplice of a False God fetched a hefty price.
The moment Lin'an City began building a temple, they had raced here from the Beiliang Kingdom day and night.
Where there was a temple, someone would surely gather Merit in secret.
And where someone gathered Merit in secret, there would be a False God.
What, there might not be one?
Impossible. There had to be.
Even if, taking ten thousand steps back, there really was none, they could simply use a few methods to make one appear.
The Heaven Punishing Bureau had wiped out dozens, even hundreds, of dynasties under the banner of "exterminating False Gods." Who would investigate a few insignificant "False Gods"?
They were less than hair.
Better to wrongly kill three thousand than let a single one slip through—that was the Heaven Punishing Bureau's doctrine.
But this bull before them needed no such methods.
The divine aura on its body was absurdly rich; they did not even need to forge evidence.
