Devil's Bible

Chapter 76 Air Spring Spaceship
"My current focus is on developing my own power."

"A weak foundation is detrimental to my development."

"Be patient, be patient. The current factional struggles, though they are great storms, are not the perfect storms I need, the kind that come once in a lifetime."

"I still need to wait patiently and continuously strengthen myself in the process."

"I need to establish a cult, gather faith, study divine precepts, and even return to the abyss to upgrade the number of demons."

"These things aren't very convenient in Qiquan City."

It is estimated that there are five to seven gold mines in Qiquan City.

This number is unreasonable. It is the same as the previous expansion of the Holy Knights' numbers, caused by factional struggles that attracted external forces.

Because there are many people, the original power and benefits are diluted.

With various conflicts constantly arising, the time for development has been essentially wasted.

To be honest, given the current situation, even if Naims were to join in, he wouldn't be entirely confident that he wouldn't be used as cannon fodder.

The speed of thought, reaction speed, and keen observation of the surroundings of those born under the Golden Seed are truly extraordinary.

In the short term, Naim can ensure that he does not reveal any weaknesses, but in the long term, he cannot.

He wasn't in the mood to be a filler character; going to Baiwei Town would be more suitable for his current situation.

"Is that so?" After hearing Nems's choice, Killieman nodded and stopped thinking about it.

Although the Dartmenley family has gradually declined, their network of connections remains quite strong.

Even Guilliman received favors from him.

More than two hundred years ago, when he was just an ordinary paladin, he was helped by the last golden member of the Dartmenley family.

Now that the other party has come to him through various connections, after careful consideration, he still needs to agree.

Although everyone is now taking advantage of the Dartment's misfortune to gain benefits, if they don't lend a hand at this time, the enclosure faction nobles will feel a sense of loss.

After all, even nobles could not guarantee that their families would never decline.

Therefore, many nobles were also paying attention to this matter, which had a very positive effect on the unity of the enclosure faction.

This was in line with Guilliman's expectations; there were too many internal conflicts within the church, making it unsuitable to continue using this as a pretext for war.

What the land grabbers want to do is protect their own interests and safeguard their sovereignty.

However, the ruling faction is now arriving with great momentum and possesses the righteousness of the Church headquarters.

Most importantly, they are actually in the wrong regarding Niall's situation.

The experiment started in the church, and the Dartmenley family was definitely violating the rules.

As the whistleblower, Neil should not be buried like this.

While reporting violators may not usually yield good results, at least it appears to be a meritorious act on the surface.

Nair was sent down to the village of Backfin. Although his safety was guaranteed for seven or eight years thanks to the old priest's special connections, this procedure was wrong in terms of morality.

If we keep dragging this on, it'll only cause more trouble.

Sending him to Baiwei Town now is a good thing.

Anyway, the person has been sent there. Whether the Dartmenley family has the means to bring the person back into the family is their own business.

Whether Nems went to return to his family or to seek revenge, it was none of their business.

“It’s wise for young people to be more cautious,” Killieman said, signing his opinion on the document. Nemes’s trip to Tailtail Town was now a done deal.

Regardless of the momentum Gotthard brings, at least Guilliman is still the Grand Master and the person directly involved in the Naims.

The two have made their decision, and the matter is settled.

"Wait outside for a bit, someone will take you to the air column to Tailtail Town shortly." Killieman handed the signed documents to Nemes and then continued with his official duties without saying anything more.

Nems took the documents, bowed, and took his leave, then sat down on a bench outside the Grand Commander's office. Soon after, people from both sides of the corridor came over.

One of them was the very person who was "meticulous and methodical," while the other was the female pastor holding a book behind Gotthard.

“Nair Datmenley, please come with me.” He said this directly after approaching Nemus in a formal manner, and then turned and left.

"Coward." The female priest who arrived on the other side uttered these three words in a low voice.

Everyone present was perceptive, and those three whispered words were clearly heard by everyone, including Killieman in the office.

However, there was no response to these remarks.

This kind of struggle cannot be explained in just a few words.

In the female pastor's view, they were reforming the church, removing its flaws, and then controlling the nobles who had infiltrated the church system.

This is the most correct thing to do.

Under such circumstances, Nemus, who was capable of striking at the land grabbers, 'willingly degenerates' and chooses to flee to Tailtail Town. Naturally, she despises this cowardly act.

Nems naturally wouldn't argue with the other party on this point.

It's good for young people to have ideals.

Nemes naturally still had ideals, but unfortunately his ideals were not aligned with those of the church.

They also clearly understand that changing the world requires more than just so-called passion.

Passion isn't a bad thing, but passion alone makes you a headless fly.

Nemes followed along methodically and soon arrived at the vicinity of the water jet.

A large number of specialized airships have already been moored here.

An anchor cable was attached to one side of the boat, and this cable was dropped into the blowhole.

Next, all that's needed is for the air column to be ejected, which will then pull the special vessel into the air column.

In other words, the moment you enter, the person sitting on it will feel a rapid change in the environment and will need some time to adapt.

However, the whole process wasn't actually that uncomfortable.

It's a bit like diving.

When you fall rapidly into the water from a height, you will feel completely overwhelmed by the water for a moment, but you will quickly adapt.

The same goes for the air column; there is airflow everywhere, so you don't have to worry about breathing. It feels like you've become a swimming fish.

Nemes sat on the boat without any discomfort.

He is now a steel species, a non-human with various strong adaptability.

Those improvements did not develop into special characteristics, but they were still far beyond those of ordinary people.

The boatman was adjusting the boat's position slightly before casting out his fishing net.

After a few seconds, I pulled it back.

Inside were some stones, wood and other miscellaneous items.

After some searching, he still managed to find a clump of white, paste-like solid.

That's whale scent, which has some value.

The boatman cast his net a few more times, but the catch was not great.

This made the boatman's face turn pale.

Getting from Qiquan City to Baiwei Town is easy, but getting back is much more troublesome.
