Hordes of wyverns streaked across the skies.
The dragon knights of the Temple of Glory wielded their five-meter-long dragon spears and fired spiraling shots at the Evil God.
Meanwhile, the believers of the Earth Church, who were unable to attack the Evil God because it floated, kept building small bunkers for others that were easy to defend, protecting them from Aojo's sight.
Meanwhile, the believers of Gurus, the God of the Hunt, kept creating arrows with divine spells to provide inexhaustible ammunition.
Meanwhile, the believers of Alchemy Alchemy God were providing many precious potions to the believers of other churches for free.
Even the priests of the Brilliant White Church (not monks) who usually lived like princes were hiding inside the bunkers, healing those who were injured in the battle.
All at once, every church participating in the Twin City Cup had temporarily set aside their grudges against humans and banded together to face Aojo together.
While it appeared that there was no god leading them, and that it was merely humans fighting a common enemy against a monster that threatened the safety of a city, the believers of the God of Games who were the main attackers knew very well that the God of Games was leading this alliance.
If the God of Games had not issued a quest the instant the Abomination revealed its true form and gathered every Player nearby to attack the Abomination with all their might, the believers of other churches would not have helped so decisively.
Humans were social creatures. To put it nicely, they had the ability to empathize, but to put it bluntly, they liked to go with the flow.
Many of the brave warriors who charged into the fray were not actually brave in the first place, but the atmosphere of the battlefield where everyone was fighting with all their might had infected them, leaving them hot-blooded and losing their ability to make calm judgment.
It was precisely because of the players taking the lead that the believers of the other churches would join forces with the players to fight against Aojo!
Likewise, while the Players were caught in a tough fight when they first attacked Aojo, with the clergies not being able to revive and many of them dying, their efforts were not in vain. Even as they fought bitterly, they managed to pin Aojo down and not give it a chance to escape, allowing several churches to rush to the scene and surround it.
Be that as it may, Aojo's spell-like ability 'Sight Disruption' was simply too OP. Most of its attacks were ineffective, and very few actually dealt any damage.
"What do I have to do to defeat this monster …" Edward rubbed his belly that was swollen from drinking too many mana potions, and glanced vexedly at Aojo, who was still strutting around through the firing hole.
"You said this guy is an Abomination, right? It's a pity that there aren't any saints or saints among you. Otherwise, I would have a way to try. "
Sefarim, the Elven Sacred Spear who had reverted to her elven form to lessen Jessica's burden said.
Edward and the others looked at each other and exclaimed in unison, "Why didn't you say so earlier?!"
"Eh? That's because a Holy Child or Saintess of a church is very important, and they wouldn't come to the frontlines without the approval of a pope or something, would they? "Sefarim replied blankly, taken aback by their reaction.
"That's for ordinary churches. Do you think our church could be described as' ordinary '?" Edward replied.
"Although that seems to be the case …" Sefarim couldn't help facepalming as she recalled the Players' bizarre and idiotic behavior. "But I don't think that's a compliment …"
"Ahahaha, I didn't have the chance to, so I didn't tell Little Ferm about it." Jessica scratched her face awkwardly before nudging Eleena's back. "Actually, Eleena is the Saintess of our church."
Eleena was sucking on a lollipop and puffing out her flat chest proudly.
"Although she's still a substitute." Gou Dan added beside her.
As for Muscleman Joe …
That fellow was still at Aojo's embassy and had yet to return.
"Well, if that's the case, I'll explain a little." Although Sefarim found it strange that a little girl who only ate candy and had no sense of existence was actually a grand character like the Saintess, she still revealed her initial idea out of trust towards the person who was qualified. "While Abominations have divinity as well, they are different from the gods in that they don't hold divinity themselves, and only form a core similar to an Illum crystal inside their bodies to host their divinity …"
"Of course, the antique elves in the Moon Pavilion believe that the Abomination's structure is actually an imitation of the divinity of the gods." She paused for a moment before continuing, "But that's not the point. The point is that destroying the core would deal great damage to the Abomination, and it's not impossible for the Abomination to simply die!"
"In other words, directly destroying the core?" Edward frowned. "That's a good point, but we haven't even pierced the enemy's armor …"
He didn't finish, but the others knew what he meant: they couldn't even pierce the armor, much less penetrate the armor and the unknown black substance to directly destroy the core buried deep inside the enemy's body.
"Even if we take a step back, there's no guarantee that we'll hit the enemy's core even if we can pierce the armor." Gou Dan, who was the best at sniping, interjected. "The name 'core' doesn't sound like much. Surely we can't have a core all over that thing's skin and hit it anywhere we want, right?"
"The Holy Children and Saintesses have the ability to sense divinity. That ability can't be used against the gods because it would be blasphemy, but there's no such taboo against Abominations, which is why the Saintess would be able to sense the location of the core." Sefarim explained.
Edward looked at Eleena, and when the little girl noticed his gaze, she nodded, indicating that she could indeed sense the enemy's weakness.
"As for piercing that thing's skin and directly destroying its core …" Sefarim smiled proudly. "Have you forgotten what 'rest' is?"
Having witnessed Sefarim's destructive power with their own eyes, Edward and the others naturally had nothing to say, although they were a little pained over their EXP …
"Still, the range of 'rest' is limited. If I must say, the only difficulty in this plan is getting close to the enemy." The elven girl sighed, expressing her helplessness.
After Joe's ambush failed, it was now much more difficult to get close to the enemy.
"I do have a plan for that …"
Edward pondered for a moment, then confidently said to the others.
