With the appearance of the goddess's phantom in the sky, the entire city of Shulbong was plunged into unprecedented chaos.
The moment countless people gazed upon the phantom of the goddess, they suddenly began to have wild doubts.
They broke free of the human body, revealing their inner monstrous form.
These monsters swung their tentacles, sweeping across the streets.
A highly corrosive, viscous liquid was sprayed everywhere, causing devastating damage to the city.
Even when they see residents fleeing in all directions, they seem to want to cruelly kill them, plunging the entire city into even more terrifying chaos.
Fortunately, no one was injured in the chaos.
At a critical moment, a large number of mages intervened in the situation in Shulburn.
They used various forms of magic to quickly rescue and evacuate the suffering crowd.
Nevertheless, the large number of believers quickly took over the entire city.
Their hideous bodies were scattered throughout every corner of Shulbon.
Their frenzied and chaotic roars filled the streets and buildings, turning the entire city unrecognizable.
The building was broken and collapsed, with rubble and tiles falling everywhere, and wooden beams scattered on the road.
Flames raged like wild beasts across the streets and buildings, turning the entire sky a fiery red.
The dim light obscured the sun, and raging flames licked at the ruins.
Shops on both sides of the street collapsed and crumbled, and countless scattered goods turned to ashes.
Even the sacred Church of Abundance seemed empty and desolate.
The nuns who originally resided there had long since disappeared, leaving only rampant flames raging unchecked.
Many residents who were taken away by the Mage Council could only watch from afar.
They stared in despair as their former homes were consumed by fire or torn apart by chaotic monsters.
Feeling powerless to change the dire situation before them, they could only channel their deep sense of helplessness into their prayers.
May the goddess of justice, high in the sky, uphold justice and eliminate all evil that has appeared in Shulburn.
However, the goddess in the sky did not make any further moves after she appeared.
Her enormous figure seemed to engulf the entire Shulburne.
With his head bowed, holding a sharp blade and scales, he seemed to be quietly observing everything below.
But no one knows whether her lowered head was really looking at Shulburne, or whether she was truly examining this so-called human suffering.
After all, her helmet covered her eyes and blocked her vision.
Even if she could see the evil in the world, how would people know if she closed her eyes?
Despite being under the gaze of what is called 'justice', evil still runs rampant without restraint.
It's as if justice is nothing more than a veiled facade.
Many residents looked up at the unmoved goddess in the sky, draped in dark hues.
In their despair, a question inevitably arose in their minds:
Is 'black' justice really justice?
Of course, Victor, who summoned the goddess of justice here, did not give this question much thought.
What Victor needs to do is summon the goddess of justice to achieve his goal.
That's right, Victor doesn't care at all whether he needs to uphold justice.
The goddess was summoned by him; whether she has the name of justice or not is completely irrelevant.
The moment the goddess's phantom appeared, Victor had already accomplished his goal.
The staff in his hand—the truth of great prosperity.
It was made using the scales forged by the archmage in the Mage Council.
However, that scale was a replica, and the divine power it contained was naturally limited.
The goddess he summoned was merely a phantom, not a real deity.
But the appearance of this phantom was enough to cause the entire pantheon of believers in the goddess of justice to suffer a mental breakdown.
The goddess has many followers, and their thoughts are highly aligned.
Each believer is like a clone of the same thought, and for this reason, there will never be any conflicting opinions among them.
In other words, every believer looks forward to the goddess's return and is even fervently devoted to it.
But even the self-proclaimed believers, who considered themselves righteous, could not summon the goddess despite their best efforts.
But a council of mages that falsely proclaimed itself to be righteous and orthodox succeeded.
This is undoubtedly a huge blow to the beliefs of believers.
Even if they could recognize that this was not the goddess they had worshipped for many years.
However, the divine power displayed on that phantom was undeniably real.
This made them feel even more ashamed and angry, as if their goddess had been taken advantage of by someone else.
They cannot accept this fact and are therefore consumed by persistent anger.
Anger makes them unable to maintain their disguise and causes them to lose control.
Ultimately, they reveal their true, twisted, and foul nature.
At this moment, Victor stood atop the clock tower, below the phantom of the goddess of justice.
He lowered his head and gazed down at the monsters below, which had lost their minds and were roaring wildly.
Those monsters abandoned their physical bodies, achieving an unprecedented unity of thought.
And now, driven by a mad obsession, they are converging from all directions toward one place.
These dark, fleshy creatures either crashed through already crumbling high walls or climbed over one collapsed building after another.
They rolled and churned, crushing through the dust, all converging on one spot.
Like a swarm of chaotic yet cohesive ants, they densely traversed the land of Shulbon.
Supported by countless tentacles and dragging organs, it almost completely concealed this vast territory.
Victor turned his gaze downwards, observing the flesh and blood of these believers.
