Chapter 470: Chapter 444: 5th Rank ‘Alchemist

The background of the Reforging Church was quite shallow, and it only became a part of the True Gods Church a few decades ago, with its actual emergence spanning just a brief few centuries.

Although the development of the Reforging Church had accelerated dramatically since the industrial era, with technologies enabling public preaching, its expansion was much faster than that of the Dawn Church. However, the number of high-ranking officials and basic believers in the Reforging Church was still far less than other True Gods Churches.

The “Destroyer” was one of the two Cardinals in the Reforging Church, undoubtedly one of the top figures.

He was a man driven mad by technology, having received multiple Divine Oracles from the God of Reforging. It seemed he had long lost human emotions and ethical morals, solely focused on acquiring more technology and keen on recreating the various strange artifacts mentioned in the Oracles!

The inventor of the earliest version of the steam engine in the Claud World was none other than the “Destroyer” and the Pope of the Reforging Church, the “Iron Lord,” who invented it together!

Although now known as the “Destroyer,” he was once called the “Creator,” undoubtedly a top technical genius within the Reforging Church, overseeing a large number of researchers and producing many inventions.

The reason why “Creator” was later called “Destroyer”… was because in recent years he had invented various war machines, such as having a close involvement in the creation process of the “battle puppet.”

Besides, the “Destroyer” was also deeply addicted to refining alchemical explosives, even claiming that one day, he would create an ultimate explosive powerful enough to kill Monarch powerful experts!

However, even within the Reforging Church itself, few believed it was possible. No matter how much those weapons developed, the idea that their power could one day be strong enough to kill powerful Monarch experts was still highly unlikely and far-fetched.

In order to research the power of explosives, the “Destroyer” began actively promoting wars in small countries on other continents, merely to test his creations.

Thus, the title of “Creator” gradually evolved into “Destroyer.”

The “Destroyer” did not care about these changes at all.

In a tent made of sturdy materials, three high-ranking officials of the Reforging Church were discussing.

At that moment, the “Destroyer” was slouched in a chair, all four arms idly resting, his eyes under the iron mask calmly looked at Felix and said,

“Honestly, Felix, what if I help you kill Darren Fischer? If you kill him, no one will ever doubt your devotion again.”

Felix was silent for a while; he wanted to confidently shout, “I can,” but felt that such a statement would be too exaggerated, insincere.

So Felix just sighed, his face full of sorrow and struggle, and said,

“Your Excellency, I, I am ultimately the son of Duke Darren Fischer. Although I have decided to betray the Fischer family for the Reforging Church and the great God of Reforging, I truly do not wish to kill Darren Fischer by my own hands…”

“I’m sorry, but I only have this one request!”

Surprisingly, the “Destroyer” seemed to have no intention of pressuring Felix, but instead spoke with a sudden realization.

“Ah, I see, okay then.”

“I understand now, a father… cannot be killed by his son at will… I almost forgot that.”

He appeared completely oblivious to human moral ethics, exhibiting an inhuman aspect.

“It’s fine, Felix. Since you don’t want to kill Darren Fischer, then killing other members of the Fischer family is also an option.”

The “Destroyer’s” tone was very cold, yet it seemed like he was really trying to understand Felix.

“Thank you.”

Felix knew the “Destroyer’s” mind was completely unhinged, so he wasn’t angry, just a bit perplexed and amused.

However, his colleague was not as agreeable.

The man was also a bishop of the Reforging Church, notably “Steam Man” Bishop Marne, who had previously visited Fischer Manor to hold the Fischer family accountable.

“Steam Man” Bishop Marne stared at Felix and coldly said,

“Actually, I still think you are untrustworthy, Felix Fischer. Your blood carries that family’s lineage, and if it weren’t for the mark of the God of Reforging on you, the Church would imprison you immediately.”

“But I have the mark of the God of Reforging!”
