Shulbon has a population of over a million, but these 100,000 believers are quietly hiding among them.
This means that, on average, one in ten people is a believer.
This means that in just seven days, Gwen came to this place simply because she left the Empire.
They had already infiltrated the crowd at an alarming speed.
This demonstrates that, apart from empires, they possess the ability to invade any country and infiltrate it undetected.
Of course, the humans of Shulbon have now been taken away from the city center by the mages of the Mage Council.
These believers who emerged from the crowd did not specifically pursue the retreating mages.
Because for them, there are more important things to do.
At this moment, the gathered believers raised their hideous, fleshy bodies.
Using his ever-changing heterochromatic pupils, he gazes at the goddess of justice high above.
However, they are not worshipping.
They simply wanted to destroy this false goddess of justice.
These fanatical believers have descended into extreme madness.
They do not allow any non-believers to invoke their goddess.
The goddess of justice is their faith and their spiritual pillar.
Therefore, if it is not a true goddess, they will destroy it.
Immediately afterwards, countless pieces of dark flesh and blood began to converge and solidify.
Every believer has sacrificed their own twisted flesh and blood.
Countless fragmented flesh and organs and tentacles intertwined and converged, creating three pairs of fleshy wings of different sizes in the air.
The wings grew even darker and more chaotic as they twisted and contorted, and the enormous body obscured the high-hanging setting sun.
The surface of the wings is covered with countless tentacles, which weave together to form a complex web.
Tens of thousands of eyes emerged from the darkness, their tiny pupils trembling and twitching.
The black appearance was gradually covered by a layer of golden light, and the sacred light gradually shrouded the entire body.
Driven by the flowing light, its original body grew even larger, as if it were about to grow to be even more magnificent than the goddess of justice before them.
At the center of the three pairs of wings is an unparalleled chaotic pupil.
The tens of thousands of eyeballs resemble compound eyes, appearing ferocious and eerie.
[A Stance of Justice]
This is the final form achieved by believers through the unification and integration of their thoughts.
At that moment, the divine light that burst forth illuminated the entire city of Shulburn.
A colossal angel hovered in the air, its three pairs of wings stirring up chaotic waves of air.
That terrifying, gigantic pupil was fixed on the dark goddess of justice before it, its fanatical mind filled with only one obsession—
Eliminate, completely remove the false goddess before you.
What they yearn for is the goddess truly worshipped by the religious community, the purest goddess existing in their minds.
That righteous goddess who led them and vanquished all evil in the world.
But just as they flapped their wings, gathering their strength, preparing to charge towards the goddess suspended in mid-air.
The phantom that had been hanging high in the air finally made a move.
The goddess of justice slowly raised her head, her gaze, hidden beneath her helmet, seemingly fixed on the six-winged angel in front of her.
At the same time, Victor, standing on the clock tower, also looked ahead.
Witnessing that grotesque mass of flesh and blood, a slight smile crept onto his lips:
"Your initiative to gather together has really helped me a lot."
As soon as he finished speaking, the scales floating on Victor's right staff began to sway slowly, as if weighing the good and evil of the monster in front of him.
The goddess of justice slowly raised her arm holding the scales, aiming it at the blasphemous angel radiating holy light before her.
Sensing the spread of Libra's divine power, the angel's body was as if it had been rigidly cast into rock.
It froze in mid-air, even the tiny tentacles on its wings stopped trembling, falling into absolute stillness.
With a clear, twirling sound, the scales atop the Goddess of Justice and Victor's staff gradually stopped swinging.
The heavier end remained on the side representing 'evil'.
Observing the feedback from the scales, Victor's gaze gradually shifted to the believers who were unable to move due to the scales' control:
"You who call yourselves righteous believers are judged as sinful by the goddess you worship."
"It seems—"
Victor waved his golden bird staff and pointed forward.
At the same time, the dark goddess of justice raised her blade and slashed at the believers in front of her without hesitation.
Astraea's Divine Judgment
In an instant, a terrifying darkness enveloped the entire city of Shulburn.
It covered the entire land like a deep swamp, swallowing up the chaotic six-winged angel along with it.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling, blazing white light emerged from the darkness.
Like the light of dawn tearing through the night, it rose abruptly from the edge of the sky.
Whoosh—!!!
As the sharp blade fell, the world was instantly bathed in light, and a powerful tearing force violently surged towards both sides of the earth.
The terrifying impact shattered the chaotic sky, leaving behind a long, winding spatial rift.
A sharp rift pierced through the air, and the six-winged angel's body, which was filled with holy light, became dull and colorless under the dazzling white light.
Ultimately, it all returns to nothingness.
A howling storm suddenly arose, and sharp explosions echoed across the land of Shulburn.
The earth was cleaved open by a violent force, forming a huge fissure that stretched for hundreds of miles.
The chaotic soil and rocks crumbled in that instant.
At this moment, the entire city of Shulburn was enveloped by a supreme power of judgment.
All evil will be annihilated before this power.
Only Victor's calm voice remained, echoing clearly above the goddess's majesty.
It became the final despair of the believers:
"Your goddess is actually quite useful."
