Chapter 761 - 349: God of Blood and Night: Don’t Come Any Closer!

Something feels off, this guy seems very off.

Did I accidentally hit him with the punch of fatherly love this time?

Why does it feel like we’re experiencing youthful passion all over again?

"I still prefer your rebellious nature from before; can you get back to that?" Lu Wenwu said with some helplessness.

"What are you talking about, dear father? Your son is a bit confused," Blood Demon Bra said ingratiatingly, "Back in the Holy City of Light, I said as long as you can get me out of this abyss, you’re my dad! As a man in this world, my word is my bond!"

Lu Wenwu: "Understood!"

Why didn’t I realize how outrageous this guy was before?

In fact, Lu Wenwu overlooked one thing.

To a being whose life has been all about making things happen at Magic and responding to revival matches for many years, it’s indeed hard to maintain a stable mental state.

Such a state could make Fangddu An Ding Hospital consider someone a severe case.

Lu Wenwu looks much more normal compared to him.

However, after a period of friendly exchanges, Blood Demon Bra finally returned to a relatively normal state.

But it’s unlikely he’ll revert back to that previous state.

The impact was a bit much.

Although he finds it hard to understand what the Dragon Mansion truly is, he can noticeably feel that the Dragon Mansion Space is a more formidable "World" than the Divine Country, and its Energy level is surprisingly abundant.

Couple that with how Lu Wenwu casually defeated the top fighters of the Gods of Light faction, defying the odds with overwhelming Combat Power.

So, now in Blood Demon Bra’s mind, Lu Wenwu is essentially on par with Gods.

The strongest kind, too.

At least the God of Blood and Night, whom he’s always worshiped, can’t beat the God of Light, and most likely can’t beat this God of Justice and Judgment either.

Otherwise, wouldn’t the main god of the Light Pantheon be someone other than the God of Light?

Back when the God of Blood and Night had a duel with the God of Light, if the Magic Goddess hadn’t come to kill them both, the God of Blood and Night would still have to keep his head down.

A battle with no clear winner can be spun into a victory argument! (confirmed)

In Blood Demon Bra’s fantasized theories, this explanation fits beautifully.

Regarding Lu Wenwu’s wish to enter the Blood and Dark Night Divine Kingdom, Blood Demon Bra is all about compliance and support.

And he actively provided a solution he once tried.

Firstly, you need to find the base of their faith.

Due to years of continued suppression from the Church of Light, the faith in God of Blood and Night has increasingly dwindled, so much so that many thieves no longer believe in this God.

It took Lu Wenwu a full three days to find their hideout.

This was a place he never expected.

It was none other than the prison he had been locked up in before!

And more coincidentally...

The current Pope of the Blood and Shadow Church... turns out to be Lu Wenwu’s former cellmate.

And most of the archbishops of the Blood and Shadow Church are scattered in various prisons across the continent, living a routine of eat, sleep, and eating again.

That’s right, as the nemesis of the Holy Light Court, the current Blood and Shadow Church is quite shabby.

When Lu Wenwu followed Blood Demon Bra’s guidance and found the white-bearded old man in the prison, even someone with as abstract a mental state as his went silent.

For heaven’s sake, whose Pope runs a church out of a prison?

Actually, when you look at it, it’s a tragic story.

What we can say is...

The Blood and Shadow Church, though sounding very much like some quirky cult a dozen folks from a village could put together after reading too many novels,

even a pyramid scheme sounds more reliable than this.

Nonetheless, it is indeed a formal religious organization.

Everyone knows.

For an organization to operate, it really needs every member to regularly pitch in v50 to maintain some activity funds.

Otherwise, who would do anything for free?

How would you organize activities then?

So here comes the awkward part.

Other churches, like the Church of Light, are big and reputable, and its name is prestigious, with uncountable followers among professionals.

The money from selling consecrated items and Holy Water as medical supplies is simply overflowing.

Or, take the followers of the God of Nature, who are all sizes of Druids; these Otherworld agricultural experts can do wonders far beyond regular farmers.

Besides the Undying Empire, who doesn’t eat? Or farm?

Apart from the elves who themselves worship the God of Nature and master Natural Divine Skills, everyone needs to regularly seek out Druids for magic to improve crop yields.

Or simply like the God of Magic, who doesn’t operate a church, and lets faith come and go freely.

Believing or not believing, whatever you want, it doesn’t matter.

In stark contrast, the Blood and Dark Night Church, those who worship this God are pretty much limited to thieves—mainly because of the oddity that is Blood Demon Bra among mages.

That’s awkward, isn’t it...

If you have money, why be a thief?

Let’s use a more respectful term, they’re Professional Assassins!

They have long separated themselves from thieves, holding legal certificates!

So the true thieves, each and everyone of them, are poor fellows.

They purely accompany without real benefits.

What proper living can these folks do?

No way they could turn to hard labor, right?

Being a mercenary is a high-risk job, heads on the line, spending every penny on power and enjoyment, hardly saving a Copper Coin.
