I Have Become A Demon God. Did You Just Ask Me To Be A Minor Villain?

Chapter 66-2

"Demon, how is this possible?" Cardinal Ferren's face turned pale. Not only him, but all the surrounding bishops had equally shocked expressions. The demonic energy emanating from Lance's heart was terrifying and abundant.

They never expected that the person chosen as Cardinal Ferren's successor, Lance, would have such a strong demonic presence in his heart. How could Lance's heart be corrupted to this extent? Why did the previous checks not detect this? What were those magicians doing?

"How is this possible?!" Lance's expression also changed drastically. Even someone as composed as him was dumbfounded. How could there be so much demonic energy in his heart? He couldn't believe it. He never came into contact with demonic energy. His Golden Finger had determined his path within the Holy See; there was no reason for him to dabble in demonic matters.

"It's you, definitely you playing tricks!" Lance pointed at Su Mo and shouted, accusing him.

"Bold! The energy released by the Count has been checked by so many of us, it is purely the sacred energy bestowed by the Goddess. Facing death, you still want to wrong Count!" A magician scolded.

The energy within Lance was first examined by a sanctum, then by a group of magicians who personally monitored its flow. It was pure sacred energy, undoubtedly gifted by the Goddess. What could possibly go wrong? In their eyes, this was nothing more than Lance's desperate struggle.

"It's impossible! He's playing tricks; he's been wanting to kill me all along. I request another examination, even if it means having the Goddess personally inspect it!" Seeing all the magicians standing by Su Mo, Lance panicked.

Upon hearing Lance's words, Cardinal Ferren hesitated for a moment. But immediately…

"Puff?" Lance spat out a mouthful of blood, staring incredulously at his chest, where a dagger was embedded. The dagger pierced his heart, causing an even more intense surge of demonic energy.

Sensing his life rapidly slipping away, Lance pointed at Su Mo with a face full of disbelief. Before coming out, he had imagined various scenarios of confrontation with Su Mo. In his eyes, it was merely a struggle for power within the Holy See. He had expected to cautiously handle Su Mo's hidden moves.

He believed this clash would be spectacular, enough to create multiple "highlight moments" and become a vivid part of his achievements. Lance was destined to step on Count of Moshi Territory's corpse, heading towards the vast cosmic ocean.

This meeting was carefully orchestrated by him. He intended to overpower the notorious Count of Moshi Territory with his imposing presence. However… He never expected things to develop like this!

Count of Moshi Territory had done something inexplicable, allowing terrifying demonic energy to appear in his body! Not only that, to prevent him from turning the tables, Count of Moshi Territory, right in the headquarters of the Holy See and in front of so many bishops, forcefully killed him!

This method was too decisive! Too ruthless! Ruthless to the extent that even in the face of death, Lance felt a chill!

Now, he finally understood why the Sign-in Flow Protagonist's mentality collapsed! Why the Sweeping Monk Flow Protagonist was defeated so quickly! Why, in the entire Crescent Moon Kingdom, so many Protagonists and Villains who were exceptionally outstanding before transmigration, had never faced Count of Moshi Territory!

However, he still couldn't understand. How did that demonic energy appear? Count of Moshi Territory clearly used the sacred energy of the Goddess! It couldn't go wrong! With a sanctum and many magicians watching, how could Count of Moshi Territory tamper with it? It was impossible!

If it was Count of Moshi Territory injecting demonic energy, it would have been discovered immediately. How did the sacred energy turn into demonic energy? In the end, it would be Count of Moshi Territory who died!

He couldn't figure it out! He wasn't willing to accept defeat like this!

"Save me! This is definitely his doing!" Lance shouted. Even with his heart pierced, he could still turn the tables. As long as high-level divine magicians used divine healing magic, they could save him!

"Count…" Cardinal Ferren's face changed.

"Cardinal, this person has long fallen into a demon servant, extremely skilled at disguising. A friend of mine was killed by him, and I've been searching for him for years. Today, I finally found him. If the Cardinal doesn't believe it, you can have someone check his heart. There should be a very subtle demon mark at the core of his heart," Su Mo calmly stated.

Lance angrily spat out another mouthful of blood, "Save me first! He deliberately wants me dead!"

"I'm coming!" A legendary divine magician appeared, first stabilizing Lance's injuries with divine magic and then probing into Lance's heart. With a probe, the magician was taken aback, his face changing dramatically.

"Indeed, it's very subtle. As time goes on, it will become even more elusive. If it weren't for Count discovering it this time, when he officially becomes the Cardinal, even if the Goddess personally checks, it might not be detected!" The magician said.

"Whoosh!" Bishops around were in an uproar.

"Impossible, impossible, this can't be, it can't be! This is his doing!" Lance shouted in despair.

First demonic energy, then a demonic mark; he completely couldn't understand how this happened, and he also couldn't fathom how Su Mo accomplished it. However, he had no chance left. His injuries were rapidly deteriorating, and Lance's consciousness was swiftly fading away.

This Lance, nurtured at the core of the Crescent Moon Holy See and ready to make a big impact, was killed just like that, at the first meeting with Su Mo.

In fact, Su Mo had many ways to deal with him. It's just that dealing with a small Silver Level Villain wasn't worth Su Mo's time. Perfectly fitting, Su Mo used him to test the Light and Dark Divine Powers he had just acquired. Light and Dark Divine Powers could freely switch between sacred and dark attributes. After diluting the Light and Dark Divine Powers, it became pure sacred energy.

When it entered Lance's body, the power still had a sacred attribute. However, after entering his heart, it transformed into a dark attribute and conveniently left Su Mo's demonic mark. It was easily resolved. No need for unnecessary complications.

Su Mo had many other things to attend to. By resolving this guy, he also eliminated a potential threat within the Crescent Moon Holy See.

"Look, Lance's avatar turned gray!"

"Damn it, is it true? He died??? How is that possible!"

"F**k, he's really dead. I can't believe it. Count of Moshi Territory is too ruthless; he actually killed him in the Holy See headquarters!"

When Lance was killed, in the Crescent Moon Protagonist group, all the Protagonists noticed it, and each one was extremely shocked. Just a moment ago, Lance was saying that he had met Su Mo at the Holy See headquarters. There were also many bishops around him. He wanted to suppress Su Mo's momentum. Who would have thought that in just three minutes, Lance would actually be dead!

So short a time and dead!

Moreover, dead in the Holy See headquarters, surrounded by numerous bishops! Doesn't this mean that Count of Moshi Territory dared to kill someone in the Holy See headquarters?

For these Protagonists, it was beyond frightening! They were all startled!
