Gospel of Blood

Chapter 432: God of Abomination and Deformity

The terrifying pressure gradually dissipated, and the crimson mist slowly vanished.

When everyone’s vision returned, only Charlotte remained at the center of the devastated battlefield.

The broken sword of the troll still lay nearby.

His presence, however, had completely disappeared.

Silence.

A deathly silence.

Charlotte’s previously surging aura had been so terrifying, and her will and pressure so immense, that even the dullest person realized Athos had “kicked a steel plate.”

This seemingly “evenly matched” battle was merely a situation where the girl who suddenly appeared on the battlefield had not exerted her full strength.

Now, when she finally unleashed her true power, it was all over.

Unfortunately, though filled with despair and sincere emotion, it was forever drowned and isolated within Charlotte’s crimson mist.

Those on the battlefield did not know what happened at the last moment.

But it was evident who won and who lost.

So… so strong!

Is this the power of a divine favored?

On the side of the humans and half-elves, everyone was stunned, standing in place, looking at Charlotte with eyes full of shock and disbelief.

Dead… is Lord Athos dead?

On the monster’s side, their eyes widened in terror, faces full of fear and incredulity.

“Run… run!”

Almost without hesitation, the monsters dropped their weapons, scrambling away while shouting in panic.

Charlotte glanced at them and raised her hand again.

Though she was unsure of the origins of these humans and half-elves, she was certain that the so-called God of Abomination and Deformity was not aligned with her beliefs. ?

The dark green divine power particularly made her uncomfortable.

Abomination, deformation, pollution, corruption…

With all these characteristics combined, she could almost conclude that this was a God that all churches in later ages would deem an “Evil God.”

So, since she had already taken action and killed their divine favored, she might as well finish the job.

Charlotte’s divine power surged, and the crimson mist spread again, quickly engulfing the fleeing monsters. Amid their terrified screams and cries of despair, they were all swallowed by the mist.

Watching this scene of the “massacre”, the humans and half-elves were stunned again.

Though the ones being “massacred” were their enemies, seeing the girl shrouded in crimson mist, their eyes showed reverence and fear.

Seemingly thinking of something, the human leader’s face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly shouted.

“Respected divine favored, please, regardless of which god you serve, do not kill them all!”

“They are all minions of the God of Abomination and Deformity. Killing them all will draw the God’s attention!”

Hmm?

Draw the attention of the God of Abomination and Deformity?

I killed Athos instantly, severing his connection with his God. How could that still attract God’s attention?

Charlotte frowned slightly.

She paused instinctively but ultimately continued based on her experience.

No choice, she was too familiar with God’s Descents.

From her perspective, not finishing off these believers now would give the enemy a chance to locate and project their power through their believers.

Athos was dead, the God behind him was likely alarmed.

As for the other monsters, just a group of believers, it would be difficult to attract the God’s attention.

But it didn’t matter.

With Athos dead and all believers eliminated, any divine power the God of Abomination and Deformity could use to mark the location was erased by Charlotte.

Even if the God was alarmed, without locating the position, they couldn’t descend.

The God of Abomination and Deformity was unlucky. Charlotte’s newly awakened “Divine Domain” possessed “devouring” power, which was perfect for erasing information, effectively targeting Gods.

Charlotte didn’t stop but used the crimson mist to block the monsters’ divine connections, eliminating them all.

These monsters were much weaker than Athos, and Charlotte quickly disposed of them.

Once the dust settled, Charlotte prepared to fully disperse the “domain” she had just learned.

However, as she was about to end the battle, the sky suddenly darkened.

Thick clouds gathered above the battlefield, and a violent, chaotic, and immense aura slowly descended.

Charlotte frowned and looked up at the dark clouds.

The clouds churned rapidly, gradually turning dark green. Divine power, the same as that from Athos, burst forth!

At this moment, Charlotte realized she had made a critical mistake.

She had always been in an era where Gods were hidden and had subconsciously distanced Gods from mortals.

But this era she had “traveled” to was different.

If her previous judgment was correct, this was the early period of the Mythic Age when Gods were active on the continent!

In such a context, killing all the believers might not draw God’s attention. But from the moment she killed Athos, God’s descent was inevitable.

As for why the God of Abomination and Deformity didn’t descend immediately…

The reason was simple.

The God was in the mortal world, not needing believers to descend but directly heading to the site of the follower’s death!

Damn.

I directly provoked the God of Abomination and Deformity!

Looking at the gathering dark clouds in the sky, Charlotte’s heart sank, and in an instant, the world changed color again.

Under the terrified gazes of everyone present, a colossal dark green giant tore through the clouds, standing imposingly in the sky.

The giant stood at a height surpassing 100 meters, with three heads and six arms, resembling a fantastical version of Chi You. Its entire body was muscular and covered in lumps, radiating a dark green glow. The giant looked incredibly menacing and exerted an overwhelming presence.

As the giant appeared, the warriors who were looking up at the sky let out screams of agony, covering their eyes.

Those with stronger abilities had blood tears streaming from their eyes, while the weaker ones had their eyeballs burst, and some even had their heads explode!

Mortals cannot look directly at a God…

The divine law surrounding a God is far beyond mortal comprehension and tolerance.

If a God does not retract this divine law, gazing upon the God means being overwhelmed by it, leading to instant “suicide”!

“Mortals cannot look directly at Gods. If you don’t want to die, then keep your heads down.”

Charlotte’s voice resonated in the minds of everyone on the battlefield.

Hearing her words, the warriors who had instinctively wanted to look up after hearing their comrades’ screams turned pale and quickly lowered their heads in fear.

An unprecedented, terrifying pressure slowly descended…

Thud

Thud

Thud…

Everyone except Charlotte was forced to the ground by this immense pressure, unable to move.

A cold, majestic voice slowly echoed, like an emperor reigning over the world.

“Who dares to so wantonly kill my favored and followers?”

“The… the God of Abomination and Deformity!”

The crowd’s faces turned deathly pale, filled with despair.

Charlotte’s expression also grew solemn.

This was the second time she felt such a strong threat to her life.

Facing the green giant descending before her, she felt the blood divine power within her boiling, the divine flame burning fiercely, and a slight sting in her spirit, as if warning her.

The last time she felt this way was when she first transmigrated to this world and was hung on the cross by her grandmother.

Clearly, the God before her was far beyond any “Saint” state.

This was a different era. In the future, the highest combat power of Gods walking the earth would be equivalent to a Legendary, but in this era, there were no such restrictions.

The power that the God of Abomination and Deformity was unleashing now far exceeded that of a Legendary!

However, it was not yet one of those “true Gods” with condensed divine persona but a “Demigod” like her, who had ignited the divine flame.

Otherwise, the so-called “pseudo-believers” of humans and half-elves would have long been eradicated by the God’s cult.

Charlotte cautiously observed the green giant before her, contemplating her next move.

Meanwhile, the terrifying green giant also cast its gaze upon the battlefield.

The faces of the human and half-elf warriors grew even paler.

However, the green giant showed no interest in confronting them.

It naturally overlooked the terrified humans and half-elves, its cold gaze fixed on the only one standing, Charlotte.

The giant looked down at Charlotte from above, its majestic and vast voice suppressing its fury.

“Is it you? Did you kill my followers and favored? Where do you come from, foreign God, to not know that the Northern Territory is under my dominion, Alador!”

Hmm?

Is this acknowledging that I, too, am a God?

Charlotte’s heart stirred.

Though she had ignited the divine flame and, according to future mythological records, was indeed a Demigod, a true mythological being, and calling her a God was reasonable…

But hearing such recognition from the mouth of a genuine God felt rather surreal and peculiar.

How to say…

It felt like she had unintentionally infiltrated the inner circle of Gods.

However, the green giant’s attitude and character were somewhat surprising to Charlotte.

The God of Abomination and Deformity before her had less divinity and more humanity. Compared to the Godly beings she imagined, who viewed all life as ants and were aloof, this one had many emotions.

More importantly, despite being so angry, the giant did not immediately attack her!

This meant there was room for negotiation.

Not attacking her right away…

This indicated that the God was also unsure of her strength.

Despite being extremely furious over the death of its followers and chosen, it did not have the confidence to take her down instantly.

Clearly, as she had judged, this God of Abomination and Deformity was indeed a Demigod. Only Demigods with the same status could be unsure of each other’s strength.

Demigod statuses are identical, differing only in the amount of divine power.

From this perspective, careful planning might avoid a direct confrontation with the God.

Charlotte quickly made this judgment.

She did not believe she could fight the God head-on.

Even if she performed a True Ancestor’s Liberation, her power would not match the God’s, not to mention that she couldn’t even perform the True Ancestor’s Liberation now.

In terms of status, she was a Demigod, a myth, but in actual strength, she was still far behind this ancient myth.

Not only was her divine power incomparable, but her explosive power was also lacking.

At most, she could use her divine power to cast some myth-level spells, but the number and duration would be very limited.

Overall, her strength had not caught up with her status, her myth was somewhat inflated.

Thinking this, Charlotte chuckled softly.

She looked coldly at the giant in the sky, her expression turning chilly.

“Followers? Favored? Are you referring to those who just offended me?”

“If they dared to offend an inviolable being, they must be prepared to bear the consequences. I merely gave them the punishment they deserved.”

“But you… Lord Alador, God of Abomination and Deformity, allowing your followers and favored such freedom and then approaching me in such a manner, can I consider this a provocation?”

With that, Charlotte activated her blood divine power, using it to cast her bloodborne magic ?Majesty?. Simultaneously, following the sensation from her previous True Ancestor’s Liberation, she spread her blood divine power throughout her body.

Crimson light blossomed, and Charlotte slowly rose into the air. Meanwhile, her appearance began to change.

Her beautiful golden hair transformed into a magnificent silver, and her originally crimson eyes took on a golden glow, becoming noble and mysterious.

Her petite figure rapidly grew, her height increased, and her once budding figure blossomed, her flat chest rising quickly.

Soon, her appearance changed from that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old to that of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old.

Her aura surged.

Majesty, depth, vastness… soon equaling and even surpassing Alador’s divine presence.

Seeing Charlotte’s cold expression and feeling the increasingly formidable aura from her, Alador’s expression grew solemn.

He narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the crimson glow around Charlotte, a hint of suspicion and fear flashing in his gaze…
