Transforming again and again, becoming stronger again and again, the whale, whose appearance was finally fixed as a cat, was finally able to surpass many monsters of that era, and even lived to the age that mortal creatures had never lived before.
In the end, the god who did not leave his name took action to suppress this huge hidden danger.
The gods left a warning in the Natural Church, telling people how terrible this thing is.
But now it seems that the monster's current power is not as powerful as the difference engine. At the same time that the four of Jenkins and other members of the joint investigation team met, the chains that protruded from the ground and "sprayed" to the sky together with the steam had completely pulled the cloud whale beast from behind the clouds.
The main body of the difference engine did not appear, and it still relied on the chain to exert its power just like the previous two times. The struggling cloud whale beast roared again and again, bringing more wind and rain.
If the battlefield is at the seaside or at the pier, Jenkins has no doubt that the cloud whale beast can provoke a huge tsunami just by its roar.
"Who are we supposed to help? Or are we here to wait for the battle to end?"
After landing, Jenkins asked Mr. Gilbert, who was also undecided. Fortunately, now is not the time to make up your mind, because the survey team that came together actually found Mr. Bernoulli of the Church of the Sages.
He was unconscious, but not dead. No trauma can be seen on the surface, but the whole person seems to be severely malnourished and dehydrated. If it was an ordinary person who looked close to a mummy, he would have died long ago, and only an extraordinary person could maintain the last sliver of life.
Since he wasn't dead yet and Jenkins happened to be here, of course he could be cured. It's just that it's not yet known what role he played in this matter, so Jenkins just brought him back to consciousness.
The awakened Mr. Bernoulli seemed to have forgotten everything, and faced everyone's inquiries with a dazed expression. Even though he saw the battle between the chains and the giant cat-shaped creature in the sky, he couldn't recall what he had done.
But Jenkins recognized that what he said was all lies, and that this was just a way to avoid guilt.
He was still standing in front of the bed where he temporarily found the command center in the town, so he stretched out his hand, grabbed Mr. Bernoulli by the collar, and dragged him from the bed.
Mr. Bernoulli is a demigod of the Church of the Sages, and Jenkins is the holy son of the Church of the Sages. This is barely an internal contradiction, so no one spoke to stop him.
"You, listen carefully."
Jenkins violently pulled him to the window. The middle-aged man with a mustache wanted to resist, but was surprised to find that the other party was stronger than himself:
"Now there are two monsters who are malicious to humans fighting outside..."
From the position of the window, you can see the chains and the cloud whale that is still struggling. This is not a battle that ordinary gifters can participate in. Most of the investigation team sent to evacuate the townspeople, while the demigods are guarding the periphery of the battlefield. Before the church issues the next order, they will not Will act rashly.
Only the representatives of various churches were responsible for the "interrogation" of Mr. Bernoulli. Jenkins was a non-staff member, and no one asked him to do anything. He chose to stay here.
"I'm not going to say that the information in your mouth is related to the safety of many people. Listen..."
Jenkins' right hand strangled the opponent's throat vigorously, and his left index finger pointed between his eyebrows:
"Either tell all you know, or I will kill you now. You are a believer in the sage, and I will not let your soul escape after death. Think of what you have done. I swear by name, as long as you are killed by me, you will definitely experience ten thousand years of pain that no one can imagine."
His fingertips didn't have any energy, but just being pointed at by Jenkins, Bernoulli couldn't control his body trembling. This kind of fear from the heart was even more frightening than when he saw the curled up monster for the first time in the seal under the desert.
The chocolate on Jenkins' shoulder licked its paw, and it sensed that Jenkins was angry.
"You only have one chance, I can tell lies. So, tell us, what happened to the cloud whale beast?"
"It... is the creature in the obsidian seal under the Old Sun God's Palace."
The desert town where Mr. Bernoulli usually lives belongs to the territory of Cheslan, so he is not familiar with the Fidetic language, but he can barely use it, but the accent is a bit strange.
"How did it get out? The church has checked it many times, and there is no gap in the obsidian seal."
"There was a strange disappearance of persons in the town. After I investigated, I found that it was an unknown spooky entity. I followed its actions and found that it was devouring souls and trying to break the seal. I didn't have time to stop it, but As soon as the seal was opened, the cloud whale beast swallowed it. The cloud whale beast also found me, I don't want to die, so... "
When Mr. Gilbert heard that Bernoulli really admitted that the appearance of the cloud whale beast in Nolan had something to do with him, he suddenly became furious, and fiery red air flow appeared from near his two arms, which was an irresistible surge of spirit . Fortunately, he still has reason and knows that punishing the other party is not the most important thing now.
"Why did you bring it to Nolan? I don't believe it, because it wants to follow you."
"It originally wanted to come to Nolan. The unknown monster individual who released the cloud whale beast reached a deal with a certain existence named 'Great Wisdom'. The content of the deal was to release the cloud whale beast. Although the cloud whale The beast killed the guy, but still wants to meet 'Great Wisdom'."
"Why? Curious?"
"No, it's cooperation. Great wisdom, I want to cooperate with the cloud whale beast that controls the clouds."
"what about now?"
Jenkins pointed out the window, and the signs of Cloud Whale's defeat were very obvious.
"Great Wisdom broke his promise. Before I saw you today, the Cloud Whale Beast attached to me left briefly. It said that a terrible thing appeared near the town. After you left, it came back again, and let Immediately I left town, immediately went to see Great Wisdom, and then left Nolan forever.
I called 'Great Wisdom' out of town and it was... that was... scary stuff. "
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and Jenkins relaxed his grip on his right hand a little, giving him a chance to catch his breath.
"Great Wisdom broke its promise, it doesn't want to cooperate at all, it wants to 'swallow' the cloud whale beast. I have no value to it, so I have a chance to escape..."
"etc."
Miss Bennett, the holy son of the Church of Nature, interrupted:
"The thing called the 'difference engine' by believers in lies is actually stronger than the ancient beasts? What kind of enemy are we facing?"
