Louis looked at the small sun suddenly expanding in the distance, a look of contemplation flashing in his eyes:
"Beatrice, which Demigod is that? This destructive force... it's not sothing ordinary people can handle."
Beatrice looked gravely at the sky and said:
"Indeed, it's a particularly special and powerful Demigod, but why is he taking action?"
Louis frowned.
Which Demigod could make his wife show such a conflicted expression?
"I rember ntioning that person to you before, the Knight of the Scorching Sun from the Sunset Church. Do you recall?"
Louis nodded.
The Sunset Church's last stronghold is within the borders of the Lokeshi Empire.
That Knight of the Scorching Sun was one of the few Demigods widely praised by external forces.
"If it's him, no wonder you're so troubled."
In the era when the Eternal Fierce Sun had already fallen, this Knight of the Scorching Sun still firmly believed in the existence of his God and steadfastly executed the Eternal Fierce Sun's creed against evil.
Although the God he supported was already dead, such a loyal and fearless defender of justice still earned the recognition of many.
Louis respected people like this.
But that doesn't an he likes dealing with the Knight of the Scorching Sun.
Especially since... the Sunset Church itself is a heretic in the Lokeshi Empire, and the Knight of the Scorching Sun is even a Lokeshian.
This special status makes interactions between both sides particularly awkward.
After all, during this trip to Lokeshi, he saw it all too clearly.
Lokeshi people have a far more profound understanding of faith than other countries.
It's like no other nation on the Star Continent.
In a world where faith in deities is prevalent, for a country that doesn't believe in deities but believes in itself to appear, is really quite rare.
Even rarer is the ergence of a Holy Knight with faith in a fallen deity, that's even more outrageous.
What's more frightening is that the Sunset Church has long since lost the blessing of the Eternal Fierce Sun's divine power and is akin to an aged elder, with insufficient resources to cultivate a Demigod.
But the Knight of the Scorching Sun still beca a Demigod.
And one of the top-tier Demigods at that.
What concept is this?
A fallen sect finding a peerless talent!
This person alone could be a protagonist in an exciting novel.
No, ordinary exciting novels might not dare write it this way; they'd have to give him a "system" cheat, otherwise, it would be deed "unscientific."
Louis, half-crying, half-laughing: "Why is he getting involved in this? This will make our upcoming talks with Lokeshi quite awkward."
Beatrice shook her head and said, "It's not that we called him over to help, he must have intercepted this Abyssal Lord on his own... Speaking of which, this Abyssal Lord isn't ordinary strong, could a normal Divine Saint descending even reach this level?"
Louis also frowned and said: "I don't understand either, this strength seems a bit over the top, wasn't it said that a normal Divine Saint descending shouldn't leave a Demigod with no escape route?"
The fully-powered Louis, having received the enhancent of the Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Pill, has entirely transcended the legendary level and reached Demigod status in terms of conventional combat strength.
When activating the Sin Dragon Armant, rging professions with the Mask of Greed, calling on Limuru for support, summoning the Curse Binding Legion, and initiating Nuclear Explosion Magic, he undoubtedly forms an entire army by himself, and his combat strength climbs to the mid-tier of Demigods.
Yet against the Demon Lord's avatar, he couldn't inflict significant damage.
Ridiculous, it's just utterly ridiculous.
Beatrice comnted: "What's even more unthinkable is that even against such a formidable opponent, the Knight of the Scorching Sun ran up directly?"
Louis clapped his hands and said: "Exactly, no wonder I always felt sothing was off earlier, turns out the problem lies here."
Beatrice pinched her brow and said: "I'll go ask the elders in charge of defense about what's going on, surely he didn't co out of nowhere to support us."
Louis nodded: "He must be here to combat evil, surely not just to protect a few of us, right?"
...
On the other side.
At the edge of the Fallen Star Sea, around the Ense Empire's coastal outlets
High above in the sky, a knight looked coldly at the berserk avatar.
"Stand down, Abyss' blight."
Aaron Owen held a two-handed greatsword, pointing at the Desolate Bone Great Demon charging towards the harbor.
Desolate Bone roared with hatred: "Human, you're courting death."
It had no intention of communicating and launched an attack without hesitation.
Aaron, renowned as the Knight of the Scorching Sun, indulged it not, lifted his heavy sword, and charged forward.
In that mont, his body seed to transform into the morning sun, with one swing, the blazing flas engulfed everything in front.
Desolate Bone finally couldn't suppress a scream of pain, as the enormous white bone hand, comparable to half a floor in height, turned into a white blade that cut the sea, clashing directly with the man.
In just a few brief confrontations, the small islets on the sea were shattered by whirling vortices stirred up in their battle, turning them into mariti dust.
On Ense's side, since Louis had long anticipated unforeseeable changes, the sea was already fully ard.
Yet even the coastal magic ships couldn't hold out for long.
In just a mont, several of them had to fully activate their magic furnaces to stay intact amidst the roaring waves.
And at that mont, several beams of sword light condensed from surging blood qi slashed down from the sky.
The blazing fire swords were like peaks sticking out from the clouds, directly stabbing at the raging bones.
The bones hesitated not at all, as Abyssal force condensed on its body, consecutively launched several twisted fields that covered miles, the centipede's appendage-like bone spurs launching over a dozen earth-shattering shockwaves.
