#129 - Chapter 129: The Abyss Sect and the Fallen Angels
Facing the requirement to develop followers for the construction of an Abyss Cult Cathedral, Wu Wei was currently at a loss.
Although he was nominally a full-fledged Abyss Priest.
In reality, his priest status was somewhat questionable.
Firstly, he himself had no faith whatsoever.
Secondly, he personally did not believe in so-called faith.
Wu Wei was not like Su Yingxue, who had understood religion, faith, order, and the gods from a young age.
So, for a moment, Wu Wei felt somewhat puzzled by the construction requirements of this special building.
However, Wu Wei wasn't narrow-minded, and when faced with problems he didn't understand, he decisively chose to seek help.
But the person he sought help from was not Su Yingxue, but rather his own demon heroes.
And he quickly got the answer he wanted.
————————————
“You wish to understand the Abyss Cult? I am very familiar with it and am honored to answer your questions.”
After Wu Wei summoned the Blood Driver, Hendrix, this demon appeared very happy.
In his opinion, being summoned by an Abyss Lord, especially one recognized by the Abyss Will, was proof of being trusted by the other party, so he naturally answered everything he knew.
“The so-called Abyss Cult actually refers to a large force that existed in the endless abyss in the past.”
“When I was last active in the real world, the Abyss Cult already existed, and their power was very strong at the time.”
“The reason I remember it so vividly is that the strongest forces ruling the entire endless abyss, apart from a few Abyss Lords, were the Abyss Cults, which also had the largest spheres of influence.”
“Unlike the Abyss Lords, the Abyss Cults are a self-contained system.”
“However, some Abyss Lords choose to cooperate with the forces of the Abyss Cult, while others choose to be hostile to them.”
“In short, the Abyss Cult is a force that is extremely involved in the power struggles of the endless abyss.”
“And I need to state that the racial composition of the Abyss Cult's followers is very, very complex.”
“They can be fallen humans, liches who have escaped the Death God Realm, devils who have defected from hell, or even some fallen priests. Of course, godsons who are fleeing the pursuit of gods may also become followers of the Abyss Cult.”
“And when they become followers of the Abyss Cult, they will be blessed by the Abyss Will, allowing them to quickly adapt to the environment of the abyss and become a part of it.”
Speaking of this, Hendrix seemed to remember something.
“Moreover, in terms of faith, they are very different from us demons.”
“They believe in the Abyss Will, have specific codes of conduct, and various doctrines are relatively cumbersome and clichéd.”
“And we serve the various Abyss Lords, as well as the endless abyss itself behind the Abyss Lords, and are relatively unconstrained in our actions.”
“Therefore, demons who hate constraints rarely join the Abyss Cult.”
“Although there is essentially no difference between the two, there are actually some small differences, just like the differences between XX and OO factions in some monotheistic religions (this paragraph cannot be written in detail due to unspeakable reasons).”
“In short, I hate the existence of the Abyss Cult!”
Hendrix shook his head and said, it seemed that as a demon, he was indeed extremely disgusted with the Abyss Cult.
But at this time, Wu Wei asked a new question.
“Wait, if you hate the Abyss Cult so much, then why can they still survive in the abyss?”
“I feel that demons are not tolerant, right? Don't demons just kill people they hate?”
Hearing this, Hendrix's face, which was attached to the giant spirit demon, twisted slightly, and said somewhat unnaturally.
“Actually... many of us do want to eliminate the Abyss Cult, but the problem is....”
“The Abyss Cult is protected by Fallen Angels!”
“With them, it is difficult for us to directly eliminate the Abyss Cult.”
“Fallen Angels? What are those?” Wu Wei asked. “Are they corrupted messengers of God?”
In Wu Wei's impression, some extremely powerful heroic spirits, that is, the messengers of God, seemed to be called angels by the lords.
“No, no, not quite the same, but almost.”
“Fallen Angels are a group of selfish and greedy *itches, and at the same time, they are the rulers of the Abyss Cult.”
“Although they are beautiful and slender, they are greedier than demons and more cunning than devils. They feed on the faith generated by the Abyss Cult's followers and are known throughout the abyss for their shocking acts of depravity.”
“What's even more terrifying is that each Fallen Angel has a large number of Abyss Cult followers as private soldiers, and the scale of these private armies sometimes far exceeds that of the Abyss Lords in number.”
“Moreover, the strength of each complete Fallen Angel is comparable to that of a newly born Demon Prince, or even better!”
When he recalled this, Hendrix's eyes flashed with hatred and fear.
It seemed that he had faced the Fallen Angels in the past and had suffered a loss.
“In addition to this, the Fallen Angels have a very high status even in the abyss mythology.”
“According to mythology, the earliest and strongest Fallen Angel once gave birth to a daughter for the supreme Abyss Master, and the Abyss Master regarded this only offspring as the apple of his eye, doting on her to no end.”
“This is also the real reason why the Fallen Angels are deeply favored by the Abyss Will.”
“Of course, this is just a myth, and no one can guarantee its authenticity.”
“I see....” After hearing this, Wu Wei roughly understood what kind of existence the past Abyss Cult and the Fallen Angels who ruled the Abyss Cult were.
But he still had one question.
“In that case, what should I do now if I want to obtain a follower of the Abyss Cult?”
Faced with this question, Hendrix was stunned for a moment.
He originally wanted to ask Wu Wei why he wanted to obtain a follower of the Abyss Cult, but after considering Wu Wei's identity, he restrained his curiosity.
You must know that curiosity can kill a demon.
So, Hendrix just told Wu Wei the way to obtain a follower of the Abyss Cult.
However, this method made Wu Wei stunned for a moment.
Because he didn't expect that the way to obtain a follower of the Abyss Cult was so simple, and so abyssal....
