Chapter 36: The Future of the Shadow Church
The Death Singer wore a heavy black cape, her expression solemn, her eyes worried as she looked at the deep blue waters in the distance.
From time to time, huge shadow creatures would leap out of the sea, and these shadow creatures would not even be called Bondwalkers in a sense, because their minds had fallen into such a complete confusion that they could no longer release the shadow power within themselves. Strangely enough, they are able to pass on the Shadow Bond to sea creatures who are largely unsapient.
Those sea creatures who have inherited the bonds of the shadows will gather in groups around their "Bond Apostles", multiply, and then let their "Bond Apostles" devour them. The bonds born in the bodies of sea creatures are not as infinite as humans.
Once a shark in the Shadow Sea has obtained the inheritance of the Shadow Bond, the power of the Shadow Bond will reach a very exaggerated level in a very short period of time, even surpassing many two-star shadow creatures. However, unlike other sapient beings, sharks are unable to further grow the bonds in their bodies through their understanding of shadows.
As for human beings, although they are inherently weak, they are the ideal hosts for the power of bond. Even if the human body is exhausted all at once, it will not cause any negative impact on the body. In a matter of hours, at most a day, the bonds in the human body will be fully restored.
As for any other creature, although they will give birth to much more bond power in their bodies than humans when they inherit the power of bonding, their bond power is a little less when they use a little bit, and once they have the power of bonds in their bodies, these creatures that have inherited the power of bonds will die just like the bond walkers. Therefore, those inhuman beings who have been fortunate enough to inherit the power of bonding are always seeking to understand the power of their own bonding power all the time.
If you can't break through your understanding of the power of bonds, no matter how deep the power of bonds in your body is, as short as five years, or at most ten years, those inhuman intelligent creatures who have inherited bonds will die in the great pain of the power of bonds being exhausted.
This also contributes to another phenomenon.
Even if humans have been passed on to the power of bonding, since there is no threat of imminent death, the extended lifespan of human beings due to bonding does not change their relatively weak status among all intelligent beings. If it weren't for the high-ranking fetters of the apostles, they vied to pass on their fetters to humans, and protected humans on various occasions, while forcibly restraining their inhuman followers. Then, the current situation of mankind must be very miserable.
Those inheritors of inhuman bonds who have lived for a long, long time are extremely terrifying existences. Some of them are even more powerful than their own apostles. Therefore, there are definitely not a few fetters who have been countered by their own inhuman inheritors.
This further prompted the Apostles of Bondage to stop conferring the power of Bonding on non-human intelligent beings. Of course, some races of intelligent creatures with an extremely large number of individuals are still very stable in the inheritance of the power of bonding.
The Death Singer with her heavy cape and always takes off her hood when no one is around, she likes it, but as the Pope of the Shadow Church, she must maintain her majesty as a "Death Singer".
Through the deep blue waters, the Death Singer saw a large, octopus-like shadow creature that was devouring it frantically, and after inheriting the power of its bonds, it surrounded it in swarms.
These shadow creatures, who have lost the ability to think, replenish the bond power in their bodies in this way. This kind of behavior even caused the fetters in their bodies to gather to a very exaggerated level. This was completely beyond the power of their bonds, distorting their flesh, causing these shadow creatures to not only lose their minds, but also become extremely violent.
They will attack almost any living creature that comes close to them, unless they also have the power of a shadow bond.
Passing through the octopus-like shadow creature that had formed a massive black mass as it lay beneath the surface of the sea, the Death Singer pulled her hood up, a thick black fog obscuring her countenance.
The captain of the Shadow Pope's ship stepped out of the cabin and headed for the bow.
The captain had a thick beard, and his long hair in pigtails hung down his ears and hung over his shoulders.
"Your Majesty, you can already see the land, are you going to surprise the people on the shore?" As a close confidant of the Pope, Drake Furywind, the captain of the Black Sails, did not prostrate on the ground like the other believers, but bent down slightly, and then looked up at the human walker of the god of chaos in front of him.
Unlike the other bonds, Shadow has only one Apostle of Bonds who has passed on the bonds to humans, and that is the God of Chaos. All the other Apostles of Bond, who are trying to pass on the Shadow Bond to humans, will face the attack of the most powerful five-star Shadow Apostle.
But now, he's dead.
Drake didn't know the news yet, and he looked at the black mist inside his hood with some confusion. The Pope has been a little strange lately, always looking at the sea in a daze, and even stopping his daily routine of prayer, but despite this, he quietly waits for the answer of his master.
The Death Singer looked at the loyal believer in front of her, the news from the sea was lagging behind after all, but after so many years as the human agent of the Shadows, she naturally had some special connection with the God of Chaos. This landing, to the surprise of this captain, will certainly surpass those people on shore.
Aside from the tragic death of the god of chaos in Edwin's mouth, the Pope of the Church of Shadows may have been the first to know that the once most powerful Apostle of Shadowbonds had fallen.
But the strange thing is that the shadow power radiating out of the Shadow Sanctuary Chaos Isles in all directions not only did not dissipate due to the fall of the Chaos God, but even began to spread violently, until he left the Chaos Islands, and the expansion of the shadow power showed no signs of stopping.
The fall of the God of Chaos and the expansion of the radiation range of the Holy Land occurred almost simultaneously, and if it weren't for the complete loss of contact with the God of Chaos, the Death Singer would definitely think that the God of Chaos had gained some kind of promotion.
She wasn't one to wait for answers, so she quickly recruited her own ship, the Black Sails, far away in the depths of the Endless Sea.
And just as the Death Singer left the Isles of Chaos and was about to land on the shores.
Gabioni, who set out from Brutus, is also about to arrive in the Isles of Chaos, and the chaotic power that fills the Shadow Sea has caused many magic to be unwielded, and the two big names at the top of the Shadow Church have missed out on this.
