Chapter 737: Chapter 727: God Defiler and Demon Monster

"Can you tell me everything you know?"

Wen Wen looked at Wu Liugen with delight. He had thought that obtaining relevant information would involve some difficulties, but unexpectedly, encountering Wu Liugen, who directly knew some insider details.

This information might not even be known by the higher-ups of a typical church, but Wu Liugen, who had entered the Glory Church archives numerous times, definitely knew.

Wu Liugen nodded and said, "Of course, I will withhold nothing."

"You should know that two thousand years ago, Glory Church’s position in the Superpower World was akin to that of the Hunters Association today."

Wen Wen nodded; this was something every Ranger knew.

"Apart from the Capital District, Sakura, and Aifei Region, the rest of the regions were filled with the faith of the Creation Church. However, at the height of Glory Church’s prosperity, a mysterious God Defiler appeared."

Wen Wen’s gaze flickered, "A God Defiler?"

Wu Liugen shook his head and said, "God Defiler is just a term; its appearance and name have all been obscured."

"The God Defiler feeds on faith, specifically attacking temples and followers of the Creation Church."

"Its existence is quite unique; only a part of its body resides in the real world."

"Therefore, even if Catastrophe-Level Experts intervene, they cannot completely kill it. They could only watch as it continuously creates duplicates, attacking temples everywhere."

"If this God Defiler were allowed to continue its rampage, the faith of the Creation Church might suffer a devastating blow."

"Thus, Glory Church organized a grand sacrificial ritual, praying to the creator to send a Divine Envoy to expel or kill the God Defiler..."

Seeing Wu Liugen draw out his last word, Wen Wen immediately responded, "Did something go wrong with that ritual?"

"Exactly," Wu Liugen nodded. "Instead of a powerful Angel, a terrifying Demon Monster was summoned by the sacrifice, which killed all those involved in the ritual, becoming a new disaster for Glory Church."

"Like the God Defiler, this ’Demon Monster’ is also a term; its form and name are not specified."

"Two thousand years ago, Catastrophe-Level beings were not as numerous in the real world as they are now, indicating that today is genuinely the golden age for superpower users."

"Thus, these two superpower users with malice towards the church inflicted massive trauma on Glory Church, which marked the beginning of its decline in control over the world from two thousand years ago, as different Superpower Organizations sprouted up like bamboo shoots after a rain."

Wen Wen continued to inquire, "And then?"

Wu Liugen shrugged helplessly, "Then a page of the archive was torn out; the last thing I saw was these two Catastrophe-Level beings, inexplicably becoming mortal enemies, battling it out along the coastal areas of the Capital Region, ultimately perishing together."

"That’s all I know. As to whether the ’God Defiler’ and ’Demon Monster’ are the targets you are looking for, I am not in a position to conclude," Wu Liugen said.

Wen Wen didn’t need Wu Liugen to conclude; after hearing this, he already had a plan in mind.

What Wu Liugen described, the two Catastrophe-Level beings, were very likely the mother body of the Cicada and the entity formed by the aggregation of those flesh pieces.

As for why Glory Church’s records were vague, Wen Wen could understand that too.

Glory Church must have known that these two were not completely dead; undying Catastrophe-Level beings can receive the Power of Faith, gradually recuperating through it.

Despite these two Catastrophe-Level monsters being city destroyers whose eyes don’t even blink, as long as someone is aware of their power and knows their names and appearances, there will definitely be those who believe in them.

After all, this world never lacks those with ulterior motives or the foolishly deranged...

Therefore, Glory Church’s decision to obscure their identities was a very correct one. However, why Glory Church was unwilling to share information with the Hunter Association required careful consideration.

After obtaining Wu Liugen’s agreement, Wen Wen immediately reported everything Wu Liugen said to the Hunter Association’s Commanding Officer in Menxia Province, Vice-President of the Capital District ’Tianzhu’.

Tianzhu placed great importance on the information Wen Wen relayed and rewarded him with a generous sum of Demon Hunting Coins, which helped Wen Wen, who almost broke his bank buying a plane, recoup a small portion of blood.

Additionally, ’Tianzhu’ was very interested in Wu Liugen himself and stated that if Wu Liugen was willing, he could go to Xihong City to discuss face to face with her. If they could come to an agreement, she might support Wu Liugen’s Buddhism revival plan.

This news undoubtedly served as a strong tonic for Wu Liugen, as contacting a Vice-President of the Hunter Association wasn’t an easy task.

As a result, Wu Liugen expressed that he would set up a memorial tablet for Wen Wen within the temple and have the novice monks offer incense daily...

Upon hearing this, Wen Wen wanted to hit someone, but considering he might not be able to beat Wu Liugen, he had to let it go...

For the following two days, Wu Liugen and Wen Wen stayed in Liaozhou City, opening a presidential suite at a hotel in the city center.

Well... this expense would be charged to the Hunter Association.

Wen Wen was a restless person; during those two days, he barely stayed in the suite, mainly engaging in covert activities around Liaozhou City.

Such as secretly investigating possible locations of the Cicada’s true form, or secretly capturing a few of Glory Church’s ’tongues’ to interrogate them about the information Glory Church held...

In this process, Wu Liugen also exerted quite a bit of effort. He seemed very dedicated to sabotaging Glory Church and would utilize any underhanded tactic as long as it didn’t involve killing.

The ’tongues’ Wen Wen captured were of no low rank, and without Wu Liugen’s assistance, it would have been quite difficult for Wen Wen to capture them silently and then return them just as silently.

However, after being followed by Wu Liugen for two days, Wen Wen grew somewhat annoyed.

Because he realized that Wu Liugen was following him, not just because he was a high-ranking Demon Hunter, but because Wu Liugen had recognized something special about Wen Wen himself.

So, on the morning of the third day, Wen Wen didn’t go out to stir up trouble but lay on a recliner like a salted fish, enjoying the services of Three Cubs, Four Cubs, and Tao Qingqing.

Wu Liugen, fed up with Wen Wen’s lavishness, separately prepared crispy-skinned, braised, and soy-sauce-flavored pork knuckles, eating them in front of Wen Wen until his mouth dripped with oil.

Wen Wen was slightly stunned, "Um... I heard that in Buddhism, you’re supposed to avoid meat and strong flavors, right?"

Wu Liugen claimed confidently, "Heh heh, ordinary Buddhists fear that the ’six roots’ are impure, so they have all kinds of taboos."

"But I am beyond the ’six roots’; without them, how can there be impurity? Without fear of impurity, naturally, I can do anything, right?"

Wen Wen rolled his eyes, "Your name sure comes with a lot of interpretations..."

Wu Liugen chanted a Buddhist chant, his name couldn’t possibly have that much consideration.

It was just his knack for sophistry.

Wen Wen sighed and did not engage further, instead, his gaze drifted into the distance, as if observing something.
