As nearly omnipotent servants in the Cthulhu Mythos, the efficiency of the Shoggoths is quite high.
Shortly after Fang Mo issued his orders, these Shoggoth masses scattered across the mountains gradually lted into a more fluid form and then seeped into the depths of the earth.
While the Shoggoths were clearing the battlefield, Fang Mo turned his attention back to the Holess Emperor.
"What... what do you want?" Seeing Fang Mo's malicious gaze, the Holess Emperor felt a jolt of fear and stamred, "I... I am a follower of the gods... I will never be your... your slave like the Black Sperm."
"Hey, don't worry," Fang Mo said with a smile, shaking his head. "Your status is different, and so will be your treatnt. I certainly won't make you a slave."
"Then what do you want?" The Holess Emperor asked, a bead of cold sweat dripping down his face. "Are you planning to kill directly?"
"I want to discuss doctrine with you," Fang Mo replied.
"...Discuss doctrine?" The Holess Emperor seed puzzled, not quite understanding the term. "What is that?"
"It's roughly about discussing our respective gods," Fang Mo said cheerfully, gesturing for the TankTop Master to release the Holess Emperor. "You see, you believe in a god, and so do I... doesn't that make us kindred spirits?"
"Nonsense!" The Holess Emperor shouted. "The god I believe in is real! Yours is fake!"
"Is that so?" Fang Mo was not angered but instead smiled kindly. "You say my god is fake, but He has given such great power that even Psykos is under my feet... You claim your god is real, so why hasn't He saved you?"
"This..." The Holess Emperor hesitated, unsure how to respond.
"What, cat got your tongue?" Fang Mo pressed on, seizing the opportunity. "You've shown such devotion... so why hasn't your god saved you? Instead, He gave greater power to Psykos. Do you think you're inferior to that re woman?"
"Of course not! I am absolutely stronger than that woman Psykos!" The Holess Emperor yelled angrily. "I follow the god's will absolutely, and I will wipe out all life in this world!"
"Oh, really?" Fang Mo asked again. "Then why didn't your god save you? Surely, you have prayed... asking your god for more power so you could perform a great miracle and kill , a blasphemous heretic defiling his divine grace."
"This..." The Holess Emperor fell silent again.
Truth be told, even the Holess Emperor himself had doubts. His power was indeed bestowed by the god, but what Fang Mo said made sense—why hadn't his god responded to his calls anymore? Had he really been abandoned?
Thinking of this, the Holess Emperor's expression beca uncertain.
He couldn't accept this. How could he be inferior to Psykos? She only gained more power from the god. If he had that power, plus the assistance of Monster King Orochi, his divine power would surely blow this blaspher to pieces.
"Hey, why are you silent again?" Fang Mo, seeing the Holess Emperor deep in thought, laughed and continued to stoke the fire. "So, do you think your god abandoned you for Psykos, or is your god afraid of mine, hiding and not daring to show up?"
"You... you shut up..." The Holess Emperor was clearly shaken.
He couldn't believe his god would abandon him, but he also couldn't accept the idea that his god would fear another god. This wasn't just about faith collapsing; it was an absurd fact he couldn't accept. To him, his god was invincible.
So, if he had to choose between the two…
Although the Holess Emperor was reluctant to believe it, he instinctively chose the first answer...which ant that the deity had abandoned him.
And once he accepted this premise, the more he thought about it, the angrier he beca.
He couldn't understand what he had done wrong, why the deity had chosen to abandon him and grant power to Psykos, that woman. If all the power had been given to him, he would have surely helped to exterminate humanity and cleanse the Earth's ecosystem.
At this point, the Holess Emperor suddenly felt a sense of betrayal.
He felt betrayed by the deity. It was a feeling reminiscent of when he had perford a striptease at his workplace's welco party, only to be fired by his boss under the pretext of sexual harassnt... That familiar sense of humiliation, combined with the constant pain in his body, made him subconsciously bite his lip hard.
"Hmm?"
Fang Mo had been observing the Holess Emperor's expression, and upon seeing the change in his face, he imdiately reacted and said, "How is it? Do you feel like you've been abandoned by your god?"
"Shut up!"
The Holess Emperor barked like a defeated dog.
"Hey, don't get angry." Fang Mo waved his hand with a smile. "I told you that the god you believe in is a false god, but you didn't believe before... Now look, you've been abandoned, haven't you?"
"You..."
"Would you like to join the Original God Church?"
Before the Holess Emperor could respond, Fang Mo suddenly extended a hand towards him. "Our Original God Church is very inclusive. As long as you love the Original God, you can gain unparalleled power, and the Original God will never betray you."
"What?"
Hearing Fang Mo's words, the Holess Emperor was taken aback. "You want ... to join?"
"Yes, look."
Fang Mo nodded and then raised his hand towards the sky, releasing a light cannon that pierced through the atmosphere, leaving a massive, dark void, as if he had shattered the entire sky with a single gesture.
After doing this, Fang Mo smiled at the Holess Emperor before him. "See? This is the confidence that the Original God gives ."
"This..."
The Holess Emperor was dumbfounded.
At this mont, Fang Mo continued to seize the opportunity. "Hey... even your deity has abandoned you. Are you really going to stick to your faith? No way, right? You can't be a bootlicker, can you? Should I tell Batman not to beat you up next ti I go to Gotham?"
"You..."
The Holess Emperor's face alternated between red and blue at Fang Mo's words. Although he didn't know who Batman was, the frivolous and mocking tone of Fang Mo's words filled him with imnse humiliation.
But soon, he subconsciously attributed this humiliation to his god.
Yes, under Fang Mo's manipulation, the Holess Emperor finally wavered. He glared at Fang Mo in front of him, feeling angry but also envious of him.
He envied the god behind Fang Mo... Why was this god willing to grant such great power to this guy?
"I..."
The Holess Emperor's eyes flickered with uncertainty for a while, and then as if he had made up his mind, he said, "I've decided to join the Original God Church! But only if you make the Original God give power!"
"Ha..."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a contemptuous laugh nearby.
The Holess Emperor looked up and saw that it was none other than the Black Sperm, who had just been insulted by him for surrendering to the enemy. The Black Sperm's mask-like white face carried an inexplicable mockery as he silently watched the Holess Emperor.
"What...what are you laughing at!?"
The Holess Emperor couldn't hold back and shouted at the Black Sperm, "Do you think I'm like you!?"
"Am I laughing at you?"
The Black Sperm laughed mockingly. "I just thought of sothing amusing."
"You are laughing at ! Do you think I don't know? I was abandoned by my god! What do you know... I'm the one who was betrayed!"
Despite the Black Sperm's words, the Holess Emperor continued to shout, his face red with anger, "It was the god who abandoned first! I'm the victim here! Damn it... You bastard, I'm going to blow you up!"
With that, the Holess Emperor threw a light sphere.
Seeing this, the Black Sperm couldn't laugh anymore either. He imdiately pounced away like a dog eating dirt. A loud explosion sounded behind him, creating a smoking crater on the ground.
"..."
The Black Sperm glanced at the crater with lingering fear and roared at the Holess Emperor: "What are you trying to do!?"
"I can't beat the Priest but I can beat you!"
The Holess Emperor sneered.
"You..."
"Hey, enough, enough. We're on the sa side now."
At this critical mont, Fang Mo stepped forward, casually waving his hand. "Black Sperm, say no more. The Holess Emperor is just about to join the Original God Sect. Don't cause trouble."
"Yes, master."
Hearing Fang Mo's order, the Black Sperm obediently nodded.
"About that church of yours..." The Holess Emperor turned to Fang Mo, having heard his words. "Will that Original God really grant power?"
"Of course."
Fang Mo nodded confidently and patted his shoulder with a smile. "Rest assured, your potential is excellent. The Original God might even grant you more power than ."
"Really?"
Hearing this, the Holess Emperor was moved. "Great, then let's..."
Before he could finish his sentence.
The ground beneath their feet suddenly started trembling violently.
The tremor was unprecedentedly exaggerated. The Holess Emperor, already with a broken leg, lost his balance and fell to the ground.
At the sa ti.
Not far from the group, a massive bulge rose from the ruins, resembling a small mountain. With a 'bang,' a huge figure burst out from the ground like a train.
The figure was not only enormous but also extraordinarily long, resembling a giant train erging from the ground. It shot up hundreds of ters into the sky and showed no signs of stopping.
"Huh?"
Hearing the sound, the Holess Emperor turned his head: "Is that... Elder Centipede?"
"Elder Centipede."
Fang Mo nodded thoughtfully.
It wasn't that he found the creature strong, but the resemblance to a monster from Terraria was striking. Constantly burrowing and flying, with a worm-like structure, it was just like the Eater of Worlds from Terraria.
Except in appearance, it looked more like the Devourer of Gods.
However, the difference in strength might be too vast...
"If it's like the Eater of Worlds, could this creature help unlock the Terraria mod?" Fang Mo pondered as he stared at the airborne Elder Centipede.
Just as he was thinking about this, a scream ca from the other side. Fang Mo instinctively turned his head, just in ti to see a thin figure frantically digging out from the ground: "Don't kill ! Don't kill ! I'm just a harmless cat!"
"ow?"
Perhaps hearing the word 'cat,' the tentacle cat in Fang Mo's arms suddenly raised its head, looking at Fang Mo for approval.
"Oh, he is indeed a cat."
Hearing the question from the Shoggoth, Fang Mo explained briefly: "If you insist, you could keep him as a pet. But since you're both cats, he might compete with you for attention..."
"ow? ow ow ow!!!"
The Shoggoth in Fang Mo's arms imdiately beca displeased, flailing its tentacles as if giving commands.
The next second, the ruins echoed with a sad cry. Viscous sludge resembling boiling oil surged from the ground like living abyssal entities, engulfing the fleeing dragon-level monster cat completely.
No scream was heard.
A few seconds later, the giant Shoggoth mass dispersed into nurous harmless-looking bouncing blobs. The previously engulfed cat had disappeared without a trace.
Its fluid body could no longer escape the Shoggoth's grasp.
In the end, not even a single strand of cat fur remained.
"ow~"
After dealing with the cat, the Shoggoth seed quite pleased, looking up at Fang Mo and extending a small tentacle to hold his hand, placing it on its head with a satisfied expression.
"...Is this a cat's competitive spirit?"
Fang Mo stroked the Shoggoth, unable to resist making a comnt.
"ow!"
Understanding Fang Mo's words, the Shoggoth protested by waving its small tentacles. But in the next second, it suddenly paused.
Simultaneously.
The ground exploded once more.
A dirty black dog crawled out.
"Woof woof woof!!!"
Previously tad by Fang Mo, Pochi erged from the ground in a sorry state. Seeing Fang Mo, it dashed toward him frantically, tail tucked and whining pitifully.
Not long after Pochi appeared.
A large pool of terrifying black sludge oozed from the original pit.
This was clearly the Shoggoth's body, possibly mistaking Pochi for a monster. Fang Mo intended to stop it since he wanted to keep Pochi.
However, before he could speak, the black sludge suddenly exploded.
Accompanied by an inhuman roar, a bandage-wrapped humanoid creature with bull-like horns leaped out.
In an instant, the entire battlefield was enveloped in a terrifying killing intent.
