Defying the Fate of Beheading

Chapter 658 348: Encircling the Abyssal Church's Demigod, the Army Marches to Fallen Star Sea

"I must leave, or else those Deep Abyss demigods with nowhere to retreat will go crazy, affecting me and the Witch's Tea Party."The Great Witch sighed, her magical workshop dissipating like mist, leaving only the black swan standing there.

The black swan shook its head.

The Great Witch is always so cautious.

But sometimes, many things cannot be handled just with caution.

Having absorbed the memories of the Queen of Shadow Country, she saw the Abyssal Church more clearly than ever.

This is a powerful and deep-rooted black organization, a target of widespread condemnation on the Star Continent.

Yet most countries often just make empty threats, rarely taking real action.

Because the threat and destruction caused by the Abyssal Church to various countries are so great that it is not impossible for regimes to be toppled.

But speaking purely in terms of strength, even Tunisia, which has faced some transitions over the past few centuries, could crush them if it bets everything.

We are not talking about a branch but the Abyssal Church itself.

But the problem is, it's not worth it.

Whether from a national perspective or for internal development needs, any great nation at the top of the world would not consider this.

— Unless the risk can be evenly distributed.

But it's important to note that the top forces on the Star Continent are not just those big nations.

Many overlook the fact that each of the top churches actually has the ability to independently combat the Abyssal Church.

They also have the willingness internally.

Though some may have conspiracy-theory thoughts that institutions like the Church of Glory and Justice indeed have the power to destroy the Abyssal Church but do not go all out, hoping to use the Abyssal Church to highlight their righteousness, the black swan knows that this is not the case.

The root cause is that the madmen of the Abyssal Church are simply too fanatical.

If there's no way to kill them outright, they will exert all their efforts to spread destruction before dying.

Apart from the easily uncontrollable grassroots common believers, or rather the faith-fed pigs kept by the church, the middle and upper levels almost invariably unleash destructive means upon realizing irreversibility.

This situation makes all forces feel very troubled.

If there is no way to limit this, who knows how many people the maddened Abyssal Church would kill.

Honestly, a continental war outbreak on the Star Continent might cause less damage in terms of loss of life than the deaths caused by a crazed Abyssal Church.

A normal person would never do something this extreme.

But unfortunately, there are not many normal people in the Abyssal Church.

It's their extremely ruthless methods that make all forces hesitant.

Cruelty is the way the Abyssal Church survives on this continent.

But... on the other hand, if you're not more ruthless than them, it's hard to intimidate this group of lunatics.

Especially when provoked by them in your weakest moments, not showing an attitude of fighting to the last would only make them continue to sneer in your face.

She could understand the Great Witch's concerns, but when the Witch's Tea Party was nearly annihilated in the future, the Great Witch hesitated when the Church of the Master of Slaughter went for the kill.

Faced with the fanatics of the Master of Slaughter, the Witch's Tea Party was already at a disadvantage in the past, yet they still didn't have the mindset to fight with all their might, resulting in being slaughtered like pigs.

As for her, the sense of belonging to the Witch's Tea Party was average.

She joined because the Queen of Shadow Country was also once a witch.

But no matter what, during her most confused times, the Witch's Tea Party did provide her with significant help.

For this alone, she would consider preserving the organization if possible.

She took out a bottle of healing Magic Potion and took it, feeling the damaged magical circuits in her body gradually recovering.

The demigod of Slaughter she killed this time was the root cause of the Witch's Tea Party's destruction.

He needed the witches' demise to receive the Slaughter's blessing.

Well, now he got his wish to meet the Master of Slaughter.

Thinking of how she forcibly killed a demigod with consecutive level 8 magic spells, Nine-Colored Rainbow Light, forcing another demigod to flee, she had a slight smile on her face.

But seeing the desolation at the Tower of Eternal Daylight, her heart was still filled with compassion.

The scene was too cruel to accept.

"Though you did not die because of me, at least they paid a price first."

Feeling one demigod aura after another rising around her, she shook her head.

What she needed to do here was already done.

The Slaughter demigod directly threatening the Witch's Tea Party had been killed, and now she would see if others could achieve results.

Yes.

This joint siege was long determined.

Or rather, it was an unspoken alliance of interests.

The recent naval battle a few months ago had a tremendous impact.

She learned specific details of some follow-up matters while communicating with a certain wild man.

First, the Pirate Islands have mostly disappeared, and an unhealable Abyssal Rift appeared at the center of the original main island of the Pirate Islands. Although this rift is temporary and will be repaired by the world's will after a while, how many nations will suffer before its repair is uncertain.

Second, the Mermaid Empire, previously clamoring for territorial rights over the Fallen Star Sea, declared a change, stating they would confine their territory according to the continental treaty.

Third, all parties were furious and did not accept the Mermaid Empire's explanation; the allied forces would still be dispatched.
