Chapter 642 We Are the Orthodox
Inside the cave.
Beside an altar with a double-faced stone statue, several people stood facing each other. Under the candlelight, their shadows were stretched on the wall in strange shapes.
"Since we can't come to an agreement, let's just mind our own business."
"It's all about our own abilities."
"I don't think it's necessary to do this. Isn't it better to follow tradition?"
One of them said, "I heard that many followers of [Extinction Incarnation] have been arrested recently... Bifrons, your [Street Light Society] is doing this and it will cause the old gods to counterattack, and we will also be affected."
"That's right." Another shadow demon echoed, "The tradition of demons has always been to act in secret, leaving the gods to the gods and the demons to the demons. After all, they are using their followers and population... Openly dealing with the followers of the old gods is what you did wrong, Bifrons."
"Stop it, Bifrons. I know you are powerful now. With the shell of [Double-Faced Door God], you have gathered many followers and performed many demon rituals, right? But you have to leave us some space and retreat, otherwise it will be too ugly and attract that Yao God, and everyone will be in trouble. All must die."
"That's right, everything should be done in moderation."
Facing the questioning of the shadow demons, Bifrons swept his eyes across the faces of his peers: "I know that everyone has complaints about my recent actions. Whether you are really worried about safety issues, or pure jealousy, or don't want me to dominate, I understand. "
"You also know that God Yao allows the existence of other gods. Since the believers of the old gods can appear in the kingdom of God that does not belong to them, why can't the demons? We just want to determine what role the demons play in this world. "
"I think."
Bifrons said slowly: "Demons have long been hostile and besieged by the group of gods. We are no stronger than some of the believers and power of the old gods now, why don't we unite to sanction and convert the believers of those old gods who fight alone? "
"Are you crazy? How is it possible! That's courting death!"
The shadow demons were shocked.
"Think about it."
Bifrons said slowly: "What the old gods can give to believers, we can also give. Everyone present, who doesn't know the rituals of worshipping gods? Most gods are high above, and demons are closer to civilians, right?"
"Most gods will be like us, to see through and understand every civilian, to find their most hidden weaknesses and desires?"
"Which of us here is not versatile? Demons not only have unique powers, but also have profound and unique knowledge, astronomy and geography, rhetoric art, medicine mining, mathematics and engineering... Otherwise, how can we bewitch people and influence so many civilians?"
After these words, the shadow demons' faces eased a little.
"But this is not a reason to disclose the identity and whereabouts of the demons and fight openly with those old gods..."
"This is not a reason, this is our advantage."
Bifrons opened his arms and explained patiently: "What the old gods can give, we can give, and what the old gods can't do, we can do. If we compete for believers from the beginning, we are far better than most gods."
"So I propose to form the [Demon Association] to unify the demons of the entire secret country. Refine and deepen the power of the demons, and then find those old god believers, not only to gain power from their sacrificial rituals, but also to turn some of them into our demon believers."
Bifrons smiled slightly: "You should know that the belief in demons is actually much stronger than the belief in gods, and it is easier to develop. Because there are far fewer noble and pure people in this world than those who are half good and half bad and pure bad species, and the latter two groups are our most important targets."
The shadow demons were silent.
"Then, those who are willing to join the [Demon Association], please stay and discuss in detail, and those who are unwilling, please leave without forcing."
Four demons chose to leave.
Only two stayed.
Bifulongs turned around and asked, "Mr. An Luoxian, and Mr. Kuafu, do you agree with my idea?"
An Luoxian wore a golden lion-faced armor, had golden hair, and had his own unique seal tattooed on his neck. Under the gray fog was a layer of red skin.
He said in a hoarse voice, "I am interested in what you said about using knowledge to expand the audience."
Bifulongs was not surprised.
An Luoxian is a special kind of demon. He is an almighty naturalist who can enhance his power by granting knowledge to demon believers. For him, knowledge is power, and spreading knowledge is the fastest way to increase his own strength.
Many gods hate An Luoxian very much, because his existence will make many believers in the kingdom of God become spiritually enlightened, so that they will start to think about themselves and the world, and may even evolve into questioning gods. This is something that the gods cannot accept.
However, he also has his own flaws.
It is not convenient for An Luoxian to appear directly in the human world, because seeing his eyes full of fire, mortals are prone to strong shock and blindness. Therefore, An Luoxian had to rely on possessing the host to act, which was not as convenient as Bi Fulongs.
But in the secret country where conditions were relaxed, An Luoxian was a good collaborator.
Kuafu said: "I need to observe the sun, and it is important for me to let more people measure and chase the sun with me."
"I just don't understand why you are so sure and confident that we can compete with the old gods?"
Kuafu was tall, and in the underground cave, he had to bend over, with his back almost touching the stalactites on the top of the cave.
His hair was disheveled, he had a thick beard on his chin, and snakes were wrapped around his hands. His majestic upper body could be vaguely seen through the gray mist. Kuafu's seal is in the center of his chest.
"Let me explain the reason later."
Biffrons started the topic with one sentence: "We'd better discuss some details about the Devil Association."
"As far as I know, Mr. An Luoxian, you have established an organization called [Information Seeking Association], right? What is the general situation?"
"It's a bad situation."
An Luoxian said in a low tone: "There are less than ten people in the whole association, and the number is still decreasing."
"Not many people are really interested in the astronomy, astrology, music, arithmetic, geometry, grammar, rhetoric, etc. I teach. The Secret Kingdom lacks a continuous unified civilization, and the thirst for knowledge in each region is not the same. Not intense."
"They are only interested in occult science or symbology, etc., related to occult spells. However, when people learn that these basics take a long time to learn and may not be transformed into powerful powers, most of them give up."
The flames in his eyes were burning: "The Kingdom of Secrets is a desert of knowledge! These knowledge and wisdom are extremely precious in the eyes of other civilizations, they will only say 'What's the use' and 'None of my business'... At that time, I really wanted to burn these stupid fools to death!"
Biffrons quickly comforted him and said: "The Kingdom of Secrets is like this, and we can't ask too much of them. In other words, because most civilians are short-sighted and eager for quick success, we demons have better room to play and compete with the old gods for faith. …”
"Mr. Kuafu, how is the situation over there?"
"As usual, there are many people who worship the sun, whether it is the sun god or related strange and special objects... the people here still continue to worship the sun in primitive ways."
Kuafu's voice is like a bell: "If I want to measure the sun, I have to run all the time on the ground and measure through the sun shadows in different areas. My host's physical strength is pretty good, and I can use my body to run."
"But it would be very conspicuous and would be quickly noticed and investigated, which would be very dangerous if discovered."
Biffrons asked: "Are you going to measure the sun?"
"Determine the solar path of this world, and then calculate the boundaries of this world."
Kuafu had no hidden thoughts. He made famous gestures with his hands: "Measuring the sun is to use the sun to survey the entire world and determine the location and source of everything. This is a way of observation, and the sun is the most important observation tool in the world."
Biffrons was in awe.
"If more people who believe in me can be mobilized to run, the ability of solar exploration will be stronger, and they can become further stronger in the process."
The giant Kuafu regretted: "It's a pity that I have very few followers. There are too few people who are willing to run against the sun for a long time, and to obtain force feedback, it requires continuous exercise for a long time. I dare not run for a long time, and they will not be able to gather. Woke up."
Biffrons figured out the situation of these two similar people.
They are stuck and struggling because of their special abilities, so they are willing to try it out on their own. If it were other demons with simple and crude abilities, they would have no interest in forming a group.
Not bad.
Just as Bifrons continued to understand the needs of the two shadow demons, a black figure wearing a coat appeared on the wall.
The man walked in front of the altar from the outside and showed the appearance of a werewolf under the candlelight.
The giant Kua Fu and the lion-faced An Luo Xian both stared at the visitor warily.
"It's all taken care of," Senior Agent Lodge said to Biverons.
Biffrons smiled and said: "As expected of the Investigation Bureau, it moves really fast."
"This time, we request air and ground support from the Bone Dragon Legion in the Resurrection Kingdom to ensure that they can be killed quickly. The corpses of a total of 4 shadow demons have been stored in crystal structures, and the storage time is limited."
Rocky handed him a sheepskin bag, which made a clanking sound.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Biffrons took the bag and confirmed the crystal structure inside: "Let's have tea together next time we have time."
"Easy to say." After the werewolf agent finished handing over, he turned and left, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
"..."
The two shadow demons looked hesitant to speak, looking directly at the sheepskin bag in Bifrons' hand.
Inside were the four shadow demons who walked out before.
"As you can see." Bifrons smiled: "I am a legal demon authorized by Lord Yao. With the consent of Lord Yao, I am responsible for setting up the [Demon Association] here to give legal registration to cooperative demons. and the Yao people. This is why I am not afraid of the old gods. Are you relieved now?"
An Luo hesitated for a moment: "I don't understand, that..."
He pointed in the air: "Why are demons allowed to roam the Kingdom of God? Demons cannot be transformed into apostles or gods. This is really abnormal."
Biffrons said only one sentence.
"Lord Yao Shen has not only the curse clan, but also shadow demons like me... and Yuren."
The two shadow demons looked horrified.
Then they were immediately relieved.
Even the terrifying Yu Men can be recruited as subordinates. It is too easy for this Yao god to recruit a few shadow demons.
"Then, welcome both of you to the [Demon Association]."
Biffrons said: "We will all work together from now on. We will deal with the demons who are unsociable and do not follow the rules, as well as the old god beliefs that monitor this world."
"Everyone, in the country of mystic arts, we are the orthodox and the landlords. This time, it is our turn as demons to arrest and control the illegal gods who sneaked in."
The two shadow demons knew that there was no turning back, and they nodded.
