"pray?"

Iger was very interested in Joshua's words, and he asked: "Did you hear the prayer in the Great Temple? Or did you hear the chants of the Holy Mountain? If it is true, your hearing is a bit surprising."

"Although I can hear it, it's not that kind."

Joshua pondered for a while and felt that there was nothing he could not say in the face of the old pope. Then he repeated what he did to a certain flame demon in the Sixth Abyss: "It's probably that. I used the power of steel to transform its entire body structure, eliminated most of the toxic radiation substances in its body, and basically purified it thoroughly. Now it is as harmless as an ordinary slime. Because of this, there is still a part of my steel power in its body. And just now, it seems that it is praying to me."

Speaking of this, the warrior couldn't help laughing helplessly: "Did it believe in me after experiencing those things? It was obviously just spared its life, after all, it was quite obedient. Or is this another sign of divine awakening?"

"Most of the demons worship the strong. You spared his life and purified the toxins in his body. This certainly made it lose a weapon against the enemy, but it also expanded its future possibilities. If it really believed in you, I would not be surprised at all."

Unlike Joshua, who felt strange, the old pope was quite interested in this kind of thing. He said enthusiastically: "Maybe you can inspire this demon to our camp to not look at me with the look of looking at the crazy missionary. I am serious. In the future, we will have a battle against the abyss, and a local demon familiar with the abyss is very important. Don't you want to counterattack the abyss, but start a war between legendary strong men in our homeland, the mainland of Mycrov?"

Joshua thought about the situation if Eagle and other legendary powerhouses had all their strength to develop the light speed realm and their own skills in the continent of Mycrov... The warrior looked at the old pope with a look of a great enemy, then shook his head, indicating that this was absolutely unacceptable.

Seeing that Joshua understood this, Eagle smiled and then fell into deep thought. The old pope's face at the other end of the communication array was a little blurred because his strength was too strong and the magic could not reflect his clear face. During this period, Eagle also caused the interference of the great demon tide. After a moment, Eagle spoke: "As for the fact that you can hear its prayers, it is indeed related to divinity, but it is not just divinity."

Joshua looked at the old pope, and Eagle also looked at him, and the two looked at each other. Eagle said lightly: "As far as I know, God has his own way to receive faith and cushion the assimilation of divine nature. You don't know yet, and it is logical that you can't hear prayers, but since you can hear the prayers of the flame demon now, this is not false... so there is only one possibility."

"What's possible?" said Joshua.

Eagle took a deep breath, and then said seriously: "Do you know, the sages and his thirteen saints?"

"Of course I know."

Joshua was slightly stunned. He did not expect the old pope to bring the topic to this aspect. He recalled for a while and then replied: "In the inheritance left by the sages, I have seen thirteen figures standing behind the sages... They supported the sages and completed the harmony and balance of the world. It is precisely because of their assistance that sages can become sages."1

"Indeed, the thirteen saints are the greatest help for the sages. They come from different races, different civilizations, and even different worlds, but one thing they are the same."

After hearing Joshua's reply, Eagle nodded. When he said this, his tone was calm, but at the end, the old pope emphasized: "That is, they all use the power of the Holy Light."

After a pause, he said, "Use the power created by the sages in the first place."

“…I probably got it.”

What Iger said is so obvious, and Joshua naturally would not not understand that although today's users of holy light are spread throughout the continent, and all the priests of the Seven Gods Church are specialists in the power of holy light, there is no doubt that the thirteen saints of that time were the first to learn about holy light from sages!

Although Joshua did not create a new power system like a sage, his steel power was undoubtedly the very few high-end power in this world. Back then, only the Chongshan Titan and the Earth Goddess, that is, the direct line of the steel python Mycrov. The trace of steel power remaining in the body of the Fire Demon Syndicate should have been completely absorbed by him after such a long time. It is precisely because of this that Joshua has such a wonderful connection with it.

"So..." After thinking through the entire joint, Joshua showed a rather surprised smile on his face. He touched his chin, turned his head to look at the sky, his eyes seemed to be able to break through the space and see the world in the distant void, and his tone was a bit strange: "That fire demon is my 'first saint'?"

"So that's it."

The old pope couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud. He touched his beard and raised his mouth slightly: "A demon has begun to learn to pray. This must be your influence. I have never heard of demons praying!"

“But I never pray to God.”

"Then I don't know why."

This topic was soon finished, and the so-called First Saint was just a joke. After Joshua confirmed that he would go to a fog of divine evil and find a way to train his soul, he ended his communication with the old pope.

This exchange was pleasant, but Joshua found that Eagle had been distracted since the last fight, as if she was thinking about some very important issues. The warrior did not like to explore other people's privacy, so even if he wanted to share Eagle's worries, he would not ask recklessly, but as long as the other party spoke, he would help the old man who had helped him for a long time without hesitation.

After Joshua returned to the lord's mansion, his mind shifted from Eagle and returned to the Fire Demon Syndicate.

"My saint...is a fire demon?"

He picked up the tea served by the firefly, Joshua took a sip, thought for a while, and then smiled at the inexplicable gaze of the silver-haired girl: "It's not bad."

After all, the Flame Demon is essentially a powerful race comparable to the giant dragon. In legend, the most powerful Abyss Flame Demon Lord can burn a world by just coming and turn an entire continent into an unsurvivable radiation wasteland. In terms of past years and potential, the Syndicate has no flaws.

However, it is a demon after all. Even if its strength meets the standards, other aspects urgently need guidance and transformation. There is no doubt that if you want to be a saint of Joshua, this fire demon is still far from being in the mind or other nature.

"But, in the final analysis, he has helped fight, and this cannot be denied... He prayed to me just now? Let me feel it carefully, and he prayed to me."

Sitting on the chair, Joshua closed his eyes and began to carefully sense the resonance of the steel force: "If it is not too much, it can satisfy it."

Unknown world, the Coronos Mountains, the Dragon Man Village.

At night, the village is brightly lit, and singing and laughter can be clearly heard even hundreds of meters away. In the square in the middle of the village, a huge bonfire is burning, and white meteorite is placed in the center. Countless adult dragons are drinking and laughing happily, singing and dancing, celebrating this harvest.

Due to the meteorite earthquake, the originally flat square became dissatisfied with the canals and sinking pits, but no one cared about this. Countless underage dragon men and girls also followed their parents, paired in pairs. This is the custom of dragon men. After growing from a young child to a teenager, men and women will look for favorites that meet their respective requirements to hone their tacit understanding, and form families directly after adulthood. This is because of the harsh environment of the Colonos Mountains. Because of monsters, partners often need to fight together, so they need to train cooperation from an early age. This is true for ordinary dragon men, and even more so for witch hunters.

But since some people are paired together, there will naturally be people alone. The dragon girl Lisa is huddling in the corner of the celebration at this time, holding her legs lonely, staying still in place without moving.

Lisa is not tall and looks even more petite when curled up. A long blue tail stretched out from behind her, hugged her legs with her hands, and made herself into a ball. The girl's long black hair floated under the night wind, making her head look extremely tall and straight, and under her slender eyebrows were a pair of burgundy eyes.

From a certain perspective, Lisa can be called the word beauty, but most of the slightly old-fashioned villages suppressed this beauty, which made her look like an ordinary village girl. However, the dragon people don’t care much about appearance. They pay more attention to muscles, strength and good care.

This is a celebration to celebrate the discovery of the god iron, and it is also a vigilant measure to prevent other villages from coming to attack, so all combat powers are gathered together.

The Iron of the Sky Falling has appeared several times in the history of the Dragon Man that the short-lived Dragon Man has appeared several times. Each time, the strength of one or several villages will be greatly improved. These divine irons can forge powerful weapons and armor, allowing the witch hunters to hunt stronger monsters. With the flesh and blood of stronger monsters, more awakened people will be born in the next generation. This is a virtuous cycle, and this opportunity finally falls into their villages.

The monsters in the Colonos Mountains are generally divided into lower, higher and kings who command a clan by the dragons. In addition, there are powerful monsters with special names. These monsters are generally unknown beasts that emerge from the Desert of Gods, and some are the leaders of the strongest demon race. This village, called "Yunsha" Village, was originally quite powerful and could hunt monsters of a clan, but a few years ago, a monster with the title that came out of the Desert of Spirit defeated their demon hunting team, reducing their strength a lot.

"We are loved by God!"

Along the way of the celebration, a dragon man suddenly shouted so loudly. He pulled out his weapon from his waist, a sharp scimitar, and then raised it over his head: "We are the people of God's favor!"

"Oh oh oh! We are the people of God's favor!"

Suddenly, countless people shouted in harmony, and the atmosphere of celebration was pushed into the high dynasty.

The people who are favored by God are the self-proclaimed by the dragon people. They firmly believe that their blood comes from God, and all suffering in the world are trials. These optimistic guys are just smiling even when facing death, let alone facing the god iron from heaven?

Everyone was extremely excited, and Lisa was left alone holding her legs lonely and watching this scene. At this moment, a white ball of slime, which seemed to have restrained all the flames, emerged from the girl's chest collar, and emitted a slight mental fluctuation.

"Why don't you celebrate with your kind?"

"I'm just a loser now..."

"joke."

The flame demon scoffed at the girl's words: "Even if I don't have a nose, I can smell the bloodline on you, which is far better than the wastes dancing around the bonfire... But then again, why are you still so weak with such strong potential? Have you tried hard to temper yourself?"

Lisa was angry about the suspicion of this unknown creature, but she couldn't think of any reason to refute it for a moment, so she could only say depressedly: "I, I can't wake up! However, you were an accident... There seemed to be something on your body that could stimulate my blood revival. I stayed with you for a while, and I felt an inexplicable impulse suddenly coming from my body."

The girl stretched out her hand, and her burgundy eyes stared at her index finger. After a moment, a slight and extremely light arc began to pound on the index finger, which made the girl sigh and then smile: "Although it is as weak as it does not exist, at least you can see hope...but, it's so long."

Although the girl's tone was still a little lost and lonely, the dragon man's natural optimism still made her laugh: "In short, I will definitely work hard to complete the contract and let you recover!"

"I hope so." The Flame Demon whispered.

Not long ago, at the place where the meteorite fell, Syndicate signed a contract with Lisa to swear with her soul.

Lisa made a wish to obtain a desire to protect her family and walk freely outside. At the cost, she must restore her strength to the Flame Demon Syndicate as much as possible. The punishment for violating her oath is that the souls of both belong to each other.

This is a typical abyss demon contract, and syndicate does not disappoint the name of the demon. It seems to have signed a contract, but in fact it does not say how to fulfill it and when to complete it. On the contrary, Lisa has to work hard to restore its strength.

Although the Flame Demon became decent for some reason, it was still a demon. Although it felt a bit embarrassing to deceive the little girl, it still did so. Syndicate decided that as long as he recovered his strength, he could give Lisa a little power depending on his mood. It didn't take too much, just let her control the blood power in his body.

"Hateful, the power contained in this little girl's body is a little worse than my peak... I am a big demon!"

Thinking of this, Syndicate couldn't help feeling extremely depressed. Then it looked at the center of the square and couldn't help gritting its teeth: "You indigenous people, you dare to use my body as weapons... You are not that adult! Then everyone will have to pay interest, and they will not be able to escape!"

Lisa was not as energetic as Syndicate. The little girl was in a big mood today and spent a lot of energy to sign a contract with the demon. In addition, her tail was very comfortable, so she fell asleep unknowingly. Syndicate once again retracted the girl's collar and turned herself into a white gem pendant.

As a great demon, although it has no wisdom, it can also know with its innate instinct that the so-called awakening of the dragon clan where Lisa is located is nothing more than digging out the potential inside its body like their flame demons. Lisa's current situation is like some particularly powerful creatures. In order to prevent their offspring from being destroyed by the powerful energy contained in their bodies, they cannot awaken in childhood. Only when their physical fitness is sufficient can they dig out this power.

This is probably true for Lisa. Because her potential is too great, she cannot become stronger quickly. Only when her body matures in a few years can she dig out her strength step by step.

As for why he could awaken the other party in advance... Syndicate had some speculations that its original radiation toxin could cause malicious degeneration of life, but because of serious injuries, he was too weak, and the toxins were purified by that adult. Although there was still radiation, at most it stimulated the body and allowed it to grow faster. I think it was precisely because of this reason that Lisa unlocked part of her power.

"But... my radiation is ultimately a means of killing. This little dragon girl is accelerating the passage of her life and burning her future to speed up her awakening."

Feeling Lisa's slow heartbeat after sleeping, Syndicate was silent for a long time. Logically speaking, as a demon, it is good to be able to help the contract object normally. It is completely impossible to care about the passing of the other party's life. Compared to this, it is better to think about when it can recover its strength.

Speaking of which, the demons who chased him should have run away, right? They are already so far away, so they will definitely not chase here!

Thinking of this, Syndicate felt much more relaxed, but for some reason, it always felt a little uneasy.

Unable to think of the reason, the former Big Flame Demon could only sigh. It habitually put its thinking into silence, and at the same time prayed to the adult, praying for disasters, fears and deaths not to come to it.

"Eject them all on my enemies!"

The prayer ended with such a sentence. The flame demon was about to fall asleep and restore some of his own strength. But soon, it exclaimed: "Huh? Why is there something more in my spiritual sea?"

"What is this?"
