A few years ago, when Han Shuo was assassinating a Grand Duke, his mind was suddenly bewitched, and his consciousness was completely taken over by lust. Han Shuo came to his senses and found a place to resist a force that forcibly changed his mind, paying a huge price.
After so many years, Han Shuo, who had entered the divine realm, had long since understood that the force originated from Spider Goddess Rose. However, because they were separated by many material planes, and he had used the divine energy that Adele had planted to trigger it, Rose's power had been greatly reduced. That was why she was unable to control Han Shuo.
Han Shuo had always kept this score in mind. His murderous intent towards Spider Goddess Rose had long since arisen. Now that he had returned to Brettel City, he heard from the old monster Statholme that Adele had established a shrine in his territory and stole the power of faith from the people of Brettel City. It was only natural that Han Shuo would fly into a rage.
With Adele as a medium and the altar at the center of the shrine, Han Shuo successfully conveyed his anger to Spider Goddess Rose. After Adele's soul was obliterated by Han Shuo, there was no longer any possibility of resurrection.
Her corpse fell limply into a pool of blood, with all signs of life completely gone. Han Shuo casually let go and pointed a finger at the center of the altar where Adele was lying. A ruthless energy was suddenly released, and the altar abruptly shattered into pieces.
After his avatars of death and destruction had ascended to godhood, Han Shuo was well aware of some of the methods that gods used to collect the power of faith. The shattered altar was used to gather the power of faith, and was also the key for Spider Goddess Rose to communicate with her direct believers. Now that the altar was destroyed, as long as there was no powerful believer to rebuild it, Rose would no longer be able to communicate with her direct believers.
For example, Han Shuo, a lowgod of death, could still obtain the power of faith from the Abyss realm even though they were separated by many material planes. As for those direct believers whom Han Shuo had sprinkled with the light of faith in the Abyss, Han Shuo could even vaguely sense their consciousness.
Faith was an illusory but real special substance. Through faith, Han Shuo could establish a mysterious connection with his believers. If those believers constructed an altar in the Abyss realm, they could even establish a direct connection with Han Shuo across countless material planes. Han Shuo could also exert some of his power on those believers.
Back at the slave auction house in Valen City, the necromancer had used the blood altar to successfully establish a connection with the three-eyed demon god. He had used the bones and blood pool to construct the demon god's silhouette. This was the same principle.
After Adele died, Han Shuo also destroyed the altar of sin. However, those believers who were blocked by his invisible boundary were still glaring at Han Shuo with hatred, as though they were ready to charge and tear Han Shuo to pieces.
"I am the City Lord of Brettel City. That woman was the root of a rebellion. I have killed her. From today onwards, Brettel City and the seven grand duchies are not allowed to have believers who believe in spider goddess Rose, "Han Shuo coldly said as he looked at the citizens of Brettel City.
However, after Han Shuo finished his speech, he discovered that the hatred in their eyes was still there. It seemed that they had not given up their faith in spider goddess Rose just because he was the City Lord of Brettel City.
Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult for an ordinary citizen to walk away from this kind of imperceptible influence once they handed over their faith. Although Han Shuo had a great reputation, his influence was far inferior to that of Rose, whom they had worshiped for several years.
Looking at the hatred in their eyes, Han Shuo found it rather troublesome. Unless spider goddess Rose died, or if they themselves realized the incompetence of their believers, there was really no way for them to walk away from this kind of influence.
These people were also citizens of Brettel City. Under Adele's bewitchment, these people had been tormented to a great extent. It was impossible to kill them. It seemed that he could only slowly purge the influence of those souls.
"From today onwards, all the temples of the spider goddess in the vicinity of Brettel City will be destroyed. No one is allowed to worship them," Han Shuo bluntly ordered.
Every time a believer worshiped in a temple, it would deepen the believers' reliance on the god they believed in, and the influence on their souls would be even more profound. Due to the strength of an individual's willpower, as well as the length of time a believer had to worship, the degree of reliance a believer had on the god they believed in was different.
For example, the fanatics of the Radiant Church were the most paranoid believers. For these people, the God they believed in was their everything. Unless the God they believed in died, no matter how hard they tried to twist their beliefs, they would never be able to change their beliefs. Such people would destroy all those who did not share their beliefs, even at the cost of their own lives!
Towards such people, the only way was to kill them and eliminate all evil consequences!
The believers in Brettel City, on one hand, had a short amount of time, and on the other hand, didn't have any forceful guidance. They were far from the level of paranoid fanatics. As long as Han Shuo put an end to it step by step and slowly guided them, they would one day walk away from the influence of spider goddess Rose.
After returning from Mount Silk, Han Shuo met with Jack, Dorcas, and the others one by one to understand the situation of the people around him.
When he was alone with Helen Tina, Helen stared at Han Shuo with fiery eyes and said softly, "It's been five years. You've been gone for five years. You're really heartless!"
It had been five years since they last met, but Helen was still as dazzling as ever. Her endless longing for Han Shuo had tormented Helen for five years. Now that they were alone, she finally couldn't contain her excitement and threw herself into Han Shuo's wide embrace.
Holding Helen in his arms, smelling the faint fragrance of the beauty in his arms and feeling her deep affection that was as deep as the sea, Han Shuo smiled tenderly and said, "Aren't I back now?"
The temperature of Helen's tender body rose unknowingly. A kind of lust seemed to be growing in the dark room. Helen's body was boiling hot in Han Shuo's arms. She hugged Han Shuo's broad back and couldn't control herself after reuniting after such a long time. She took the initiative to stand on her tiptoes and eagerly asked for Han Shuo's favor.
As soon as their mouths and teeth touched, it was as though lightning was communicating with fire. The two could no longer control their lust. Amidst the fragrance, Han Shuo lifted Helen up by the waist. As she panted, he tore her fiery red magic robe apart and his big hands climbed onto her towering soft body that was as warm as jade.
"Oh … I didn't expect that I would wait for five years! Brian, give it to me. I don't want to wait any longer. "Helen hugged Han Shuo with all her strength and cried tears of joy.
A series of scenes seemed to have happened just yesterday. Scenes of warm and ambiguous flirting in Helon City, walking hand in hand with various beautiful scenic spots, appeared in Han Shuo's mind one after another …
Feeling the passion of the beauty in his arms, Han Shuo's hands became more and more unbridled. Finally, he tore Helen's soft and smooth silk bra apart and took off Helen's cicada's wings that were as thin as a cicada's wings …
…
For the next few days, under Han Shuo's orders, the shrines of the spider goddess in Brettel City and the seven grand duchies were all cleared out. Those who were stubborn were mercilessly beheaded. The believers of the spider goddess Rose were ordered not to continue worshipping, not to pray, and not to privately build sacrificial altars to worship.
At the same time, under Han Shuo's instructions, the destroyed shrines of the spider goddess were transformed into statues of the city lord. The statues were then spread to all major cities to publicize the city lord's glorious achievements. Drawing on the respect and worship of the citizens of Brettel City, he began to consolidate their faith through some simple rituals, making them willingly offer everything to him.
It was Han Shuo's avatar of destruction that received the power of faith from the citizens of Brettel City and the seven grand duchies. With the experience of his avatar of death, and having consulted Bechymos on some of the profound mysteries of the edict of destruction outside the Void, Han Shuo's avatar of destruction could now successfully release the Domain of Divinity and absorb the power of faith.
"You've become a god?" Over the past few days, Han Shuo's series of thunderous actions in Brettel City had brought about many changes in the city. When Statholme the old monster became aware of Han Shuo's actions, he finally sought out Han Shuo alone. His eyes shone with a strange light as soon as he saw Han Shuo, and he inquired in a deep voice.
Over the past few days, Han Shuo had utterly destroyed the arrangements Adele had made over the past five years as though he was crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood. Furthermore, he had begun to publicize his great achievements in Brettel City and the seven grand duchies. He had used some means to display his might, causing the citizens who had long since worshipped him to willingly offer their faith to him.
Although Statholme the old monster had yet to become a god, he knew that only a true god needed the power of faith. After witnessing Han Shuo's actions, Statholme came to a shocking conclusion in his heart – Han Shuo had become a god!
Therefore, he urgently sought out Han Shuo, impatient to prove whether his judgment was correct or not.
Looking at Statholme who was eager to seek confirmation, Han Shuo put on a faint smile and calmly admitted, "That's right, I have become a god!"
Although Statholme had a premonition in his heart, he was still indescribably shocked when he heard Han Shuo's affirmation. Statholme was silent for a long while. Soon after, he looked at Han Shuo with some embarrassment and asked, "Can you give me some experience?"
Han Shuo laughed involuntarily and replied straightforwardly, "No problem." After a short pause, he added, "However, the most important breakthrough still depends on yourself!"
Han Shuo had long had a favorable impression of Statholme. Currently, the latter was only a step away from the realm of basegod. Therefore, Han Shuo was very willing to help him.
