A Guide to Becoming a God Starting from a Monastery

"Why do you say that?"

"My Lord, I saw him up close and personal... That man had an air of superiority, looking down on everyone. I believe that a man like him, a protector of the nation, would not be willing to engage in such conspiracies and intrigues."

"He has an arrogance and self-confidence that is beyond that of a normal person."

"He... deep down, he looks down on ordinary humans... He laughs at the power of humans!"

"Of course, the most important thing is that among those present is a knight colleague who I have a close relationship with and whom I can completely trust. He has the ability to detect lies... and that colleague assured me that the monster was telling the truth!"

"Ha..." Thomas laughed. "So, that monster really wants to...attack Rhodes Island alone?"

He stopped suddenly because he felt a little embarrassed.

No one else present laughed.

Not only did they not smile, but they all looked serious and indifferent.

Damn it, no one gave any feedback, and it’s really embarrassing for me as the team leader.

"What's going on with that Wolf God?" Thomas coughed and asked the messenger. "How did he challenge an entire army by himself?"

When Thomas was in Kiev, he personally participated in the siege of the Protectorate.

Although we already know a lot from the intelligence, all the information has been passed through several hands and does not involve how the Wolf God fights.

"I haven't seen him in action, but I've met a few survivors from the battle lines before, and they've told me a lot. If I had to describe him, he'd be like Samson in the Old Testament."

"You can kill thousands of people with just a donkey's jawbone?" Thomas was still surprised.

"He is incredibly fast and powerful. Even a normal human wearing armor would struggle to withstand his bare-handed attacks. Even if the armor isn't penetrated, the impact is enough to be fatal. Furthermore, the Wolf God doesn't carry weapons himself, but will pick up and use weapons left on the battlefield."

"He has immense endurance and requires absolutely no rest," the messenger said. "In addition, he possesses the ability to change his appearance. If he is targeted by the archers, he will transform into a beast, transforming into a gigantic half-human, half-wolf monster."

"The speed increased further, and the hands transformed. The five fingers, especially the nails, became claws that could easily tear through steel. The claw tips were as long as a dagger."

"If the body is hit by an arrow or bullet, the muscles will wriggle to squeeze out the foreign object. Wounds on the body, whether they are slash wounds or puncture wounds, will quickly stop bleeding and heal at a speed visible to the naked eye."

"Besides that, his fighting skills are extremely superior. Even the strongest warriors would have difficulty lasting more than a few moves against him."

"Some people on the front line hired a magician to deal with him. That magician controls a terrifying remnant of the Old Ones. That remnant is a tiger, but it can transform into a half-tiger, half-human form and possesses multiple powers."

"Everyone believes that the remnant of the Old Ones should be able to compete with the Wolf God."

"But when the fight really started, that remnant of the old days was torn to pieces in just a few minutes. The magician also disappeared without a trace."

"I see." Thomas nodded. "So, what does the Knights Templar mean?"

"The Grand Commander hasn't given us any instructions. However, we all agree that if you wish to avoid it, then it would be best to evacuate all residents of Rhodes Island. On the other hand, if you wish to fight, then please be extremely cautious and not allow any negligence."

"Grand Master," the secretary, Demetrios, suddenly said, "you'd better return to Rome for help."

"If it's the Holy See, then we can mobilize the power of the entire Christian world to eradicate this evil!"

Thomas glanced back at Demetrios.

"No need," he said confidently. "We have a month. I don't believe that the Knights, even with their full preparation, can't handle a protectorate!"

He had previously worried that the Wolf God was a quasi-god with unpredictable methods.

It was just like Malovit, the nightmare god who descended upon Kiev. He didn't even need to fight you; an inexplicable suppression of his status completely wiped you out.

Under the protection of the country, let alone fighting, they don’t even know how to resist.

But now it seems that this is not the case. Whether it is swords, fists, feet or claws, they are all real things.

Then the risk is greatly reduced.

Apart from anything else, Thomas can bestow a large amount of magic upon all his subordinates, directly turning them into supermen.

"It seems you have chosen to fight," the messenger exclaimed heartily. "Just as we expected. A warrior like you will fight to the bitter end, not flee. Whether you win or lose, your heroic name will be forever sung in the songs of poets."

Damn it, don’t set this kind of flag!

I can access the sixth layer of the magic network and use trigger spells.

Worst case scenario, I can still teleport a short distance to a safe place the moment I'm hurt, and then use flying, invisibility, or both flying and invisibility to leave!

Then fly directly to the prepared ship to evacuate!

Thomas just didn't believe that the Wolf God could catch up!

……

After seeing the messenger off, Thomas returned to his living room.

That wolf god is very powerful, but... Thomas has decided that there is no need to mobilize the main force.

For an enemy like this, who boasts unlimited physical strength but is mentally fragile, having more people is not a good thing.

Using magic, the entire army was transformed into miniature superheroes, unable to be slaughtered immediately. In this way, theoretically, only a small number of troops needed to be sacrificed to drag the enemy into a mental breakdown.

Then he set a trap and put the wolf god, who had lost his mind and only had animal instincts left, into it.

Next is the meat on the chopping board. If you want to cut it horizontally, cut it horizontally. If you want to cut it vertically, cut it vertically!

Of course, you also need to pay attention to the situation where the other party ignores these obstacles and comes directly to try to behead you.

That means a real fight with real guns and swords.

Thomas was not disgusted by this, but was eager to try it.

In fact, after becoming a Protector of the Nation, he hadn't really encountered any strong enemies. The last Protector of the Nation that he had dealt with was a member of the Xingyue Sect who hadn't received rigorous training, wasn't actually proficient in martial arts, and his supernatural powers were very weak.

Fighting an enemy like that wasn't a challenge at all.

On the contrary, this wolf god is said to be gifted, an excellent warrior, and experienced in many battles.

A suitable opponent.

"Louis!" Thomas shouted outside.

A few seconds later, the young man's voice responded from outside. "Captain, I'm here."

"Take this banner of mine," Thomas said. "Hang it on the highest flagpole at the headquarters of the Order."

"Okay." Louis took the bloody cross flag, and there seemed to be a struggling expression on his face.

"What's wrong, Louis?"

"It's okay, Grand Commander. I just ran into the clerk and the others outside. They seem to have something they want to report to you."

"Oh, then just let them in."

"But I've already asked them to wait in the main reception room," Louis said sheepishly. "You were just meditating in your room, and I guess you didn't want to be disturbed."

"Alright, I'll go to the reception room then," Thomas thought. He needed to discuss the specific defensive measures with his subordinates.

Although he is the Grand Commander, Thomas has to admit that he is not proficient in battle command and is not suitable to be a front-line commander.

He also knows his own limitations and delegates things he is not good at to others.

After all, he is a modern man at heart and has a more open mind.

As he thought about it, he walked into the reception room that he was very familiar with.

The secretary Demetrios is here, and so is Andrea and Joseph.

In addition, there are several knights.

Everyone is armed.

This is not the attire for discussing issues in a reception room, but rather the attire for going into battle.

"The Wolf God hasn't come yet." Thomas didn't understand. What was he trying to do?

But he understood immediately.

His eyes swept over several of his men and saw the gloom and determination on their faces.

"Is this... a rebellion?" Thomas asked, looking around at everyone.

"Grandmaster, we have reached a consensus," said Secretary Demetrios. "I'm sorry."

Behind him, there was the sound of the door being locked.

Thomas turned around and saw that the door had been locked by Louis who was following him.

"I'm sorry, Grand Commander, but I think they are right." Louis' voice was not loud, but it could still be heard through the door.

Chapter 194 Rebellion 2

"What... do you want to do?" Thomas calmed down and looked at everyone.

"Grand Master, the Knights cannot lose you." Demetrios said firmly.

Once, he clung to the Pope's thigh and begged bitterly, hoping to be replaced by a Grand Master, at least a Grand Master who was half a step away from protecting the country.

Instead of a captain who is at most an elite junior level and has a humble background.

However, the facts have proven his folly and the Pope's wisdom and foresight. Thomas is the most suitable Grand Master for the Knights of Rhodes Island.

In fact, Demetrios and many of his colleagues believed that there was no one more suitable to be the Grand Master than Thomas.

It's in the middle of nowhere.

If Thomas died, the entire Knights would immediately be in dire straits. There couldn't be another Thomas!

"We think you shouldn't fight the Wolf God here, that's a national defense!" said Joseph.

Joseph, the bodyguard given to Thomas by the Pope and now appointed lieutenant of the Knights Templar, was also persuaded, proving that everyone had reached a consensus.

"Grandmaster, I am willing to take your place here to deal with the Wolf God. You should go to a safe place."

"Ah..." Thomas sighed. "You have so little faith in me..."

"Why do you think I will lose?" he asked, looking up.

"Grandmaster, I know the Bloody Cross is powerful, but this enemy... is different," Demetrios said. "We know you're prepared, but we still don't think this is a good idea."

"You know I'm prepared?" Thomas asked.

"I'm sorry, sir," Louis' voice came from the other side of the door.

Damn, this guy leaked the secret!

Louis can enter and exit Thomas' room, and he probably saw the information about the Wolf God that Thomas collected from various channels.

The boy must have held the door from the outside, which meant that Thomas couldn't have opened the lock.

Even if he had professional lock-picking skills, it wouldn't work.

"Grandmaster, give up," Andrea said. "We don't want to resort to violence. The ship is ready. You will leave today, and Dimitrios will take care of things here."

"Oh, so you guys don't seem to understand at all." Thomas smiled.

"Capture the Grand Commander." Andrea ordered.

Two knights came up from both sides, trying to catch Thomas.

But Thomas was quick, rushing over, grabbing Andrea's hands with both hands, and kneeing him directly in the abdomen.

Andrea felt a heavy impact pierce his ribs, his internal organs were squeezed, and he could hardly breathe. His body curled up uncontrollably and then fell to the ground.

He tried his best to get up again, but Thomas didn't hesitate and kicked him hard with a whip kick!

With a loud bang, Andrea's body was kicked out and fell heavily against the wall. The strong impact made his whole body numb. His vision was full of colorful things, and his ears were buzzing, almost deafening!

The chest part of his armor was completely deformed under the impact of this astonishing force.

Everyone was shocked. Even the two knights who were about to capture Thomas stopped in surprise.

Thomas didn't pursue the attack. Instead, he stepped aside, picked up a cloth from the conference room table, bent down, and wiped the blood off his shoes. Ignoring Andrea, who was vomiting blood, he looked at the true instigator among the crowd, the secretary Demetrios.

"Do it!" Demetrios finally came to his senses and shouted.

Following his words, several knights immediately resumed their attack.

Joseph was in front and suddenly let out a loud shout.

This was his extraordinary ability: the art of immobilization. Every time he roared, his opponent would stop for a brief moment.

Although the immobilization time is very short, in actual combat, this brief pause will also have decisive consequences.

For example, at this moment, a knight was swinging a thick wooden stick at the back of Thomas' head.

This is a thick, strong, and flexible oak stick. If hit by it, a normal person will immediately fall unconscious, but it is unlikely to cause fatal damage.
