Chapter 890: Chapter 542: Camp Shifted?_2

“This is also the place where I am most confused.”

Lis looked Faith up and down, then continued to speak:

“The aura on you is very familiar to me, it is indeed that of a Slaughter Knight of the War God Church. Besides, I have also seen the combat skills you displayed.”

“You are indeed a Slaughter Knight, but you also give me a somewhat discordant feeling.”

“You…”

Lis stared into Faith’s eyes and said word by word:

“Already switched alignment?”

Faith’s body instantly tensed up, but she endured and said while looking at Lis:

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but don’t insult my faith.”

Faith’s changes were entirely exposed to Lis’s eyes. He shook his head and said:

“It seems to be true.”

For ordinary people, their alignment might not be of great importance. However, for extraordinary professionals, particularly those of divine rank, it is crucial.

Based on individual tendencies, alignments are divided into nine types.

Lawful Good: Adhere to strong rules and act in good faith based on those rules.

Neutral Good: Do good within one’s principles but also respect rules.

Chaotic Good: Do good according to one’s own standards, ignoring rules, with a self-defined sense of good and evil.

Lawful Neutral: Rules come first, regardless of good or evil.

Absolute Neutral: Independent of various forces and trends, maintaining moderation without taking sides.

Chaotic Neutral: Freedom comes first, acting willfully.

Lawful Evil: Commit evil in an organized and disciplined manner.

Neutral Evil: Commit evil for personal reasons, not obeying but not disrupting rules.

Chaotic Evil: View all beauty and order as nothing, acting evil purely out of destructive instinct and enjoying it.

For example, people in the Chaotic Evil camp might commit any acts driven by their own desires, hatred, and urge for destruction.

They are irritable, malicious, autocratic, brutal, and unpredictable, unscrupulously seizing anything they can. Those in this camp are seen as the cancer of civilization. Any groups they join or form have poor organization.

In their world, only coercion and violence can make chaotic evil people work together. Only the truly strong can be leaders, and anyone showing signs of weakness will immediately be replaced by the emerging strong.

What Chaotic Evil desires to destroy is not just beauty and life, but also the order that maintains beauty and life.

The most notorious representatives of Chaotic Evil are the Abyss Demons.

For players, they typically lean towards Chaotic Good or Chaotic Neutral. Only with enough benefits will they begin respecting rules.

However, the so-called alignment division doesn’t impact many people.

Ultimately, it is their actions that decide their alignment, which in a sense reflects their true nature.

But for certain special professionals, particularly divine beings, their alignment is different.

Reaching the divine rank, one’s alignment tendency not only decides their followers and ways of doing things but also their allies and enemies.

A chaotic evil abyss demon appearing in the main world would quickly be challenged by the true gods with righteous ‘duels’.

For extraordinary professionals below the divine rank, the stronger their power, the more they need to mind this. Some special extraordinary professionals changing alignment recklessly might fall into madness or their power might chaotically harm themselves.

The Slaughter Knight of the War God is just such a case.

The War God’s alignment is Lawful Neutral, and his divine officers follow the same.

As long as they obey the rules, they don’t really care whether they act for good or evil.

The Slaughter Knight is the same, they could also experience alignment shift, turning from Lawful Neutral to Chaotic Neutral.

Lis knows this because the boss behind the scenes in the City of Slaughter was a powerful Golden Rank Slaughter Knight.

After defecting from the War God Church, they established a territory named City of Slaughter.

Later discovered by the War God Church, they gathered forces and recruited players to destroy that stronghold.

And that Golden Rank Slaughter Knight had already undergone alignment shift.

The creed and teachings of the War God Church are about honing oneself through battle, continuously becoming stronger.

Thanks to the strength bestowed by the War God, Slaughter Knights can draw nourishment from battles and slaughter to gain greater power.

The premise is a normal fight.

Some Slaughter Knights might take a wrong path, slaughtering ordinary people while still possibly gaining strength enhancement.

Such speed is faster than isolated cultivation through battles.

Thus, some Slaughter Knights may break their limits for the lure of power and slaughter ordinary people, gaining greater power in the process.

Deciding to act in such a way would shift their alignment from Lawful Neutral to Chaotic Neutral.

In a sense, the abilities of the Slaughter Knights resemble those of Evil God believers.

As for why this ability is not retracted by the War God despite being forbidden by the War God Church, Lis has heard a rumor.

This War God Caris seems to have initially been of Chaotic Neutral alignment, only pulled over by the God of Dawn.

The truth of this rumor is unclear to Lis, but it explains Faith’s behavior.

During the daytime, her timing was too perfect!

Just when Taya had defeated the Golden Rank desert bandits, ready to capture them.

Moreover, at the moment Faith made her move, she slayed all the remaining desert bandits.

In short, not a single one survived.

If it was usual, Lis wouldn’t mind.

What difference does it make for a divine officer to kill bandits? It’s quite normal.

But Lis had already noticed the peculiarity of those desert bandits.

Desert bandits that shouldn’t have been here…

Wanton slaughter but not overly interested in possessions…

Seeing the caravan and silencing them…

If Faith did all this, it would explain everything.

In order to enhance her power quickly, those desert bandits might be her subordinates or collaborators.

Desert bandits slaughtering ordinary people wantonly, generating the slaughter that allows Faith, the Slaughter Knight, to quickly gain strength.

Thus, these desert bandits appearing here, a wandering Sand Tribe disappearing would’ve gone unnoticed.

However, in the more fertile southern regions of the desert, it’s different. Those areas are basically protected by the War God Church or other extraordinary forces’ oases, many such incidents would easily draw attention.

Such actions are no different from those of Evil God believers.

Facing Lis, Faith’s face turned grim, she stepped forward and looked at Lis with anger:

“Sir Lis, this joke is not funny.”

“Are you questioning my faith in My Lord?”

“Do you have any evidence?”

“Evidence?”

Lis looked at Faith, his face showing a smile.

“I don’t need any evidence.”

Lis just expressed his suspicions.

The intelligence about the War God and the alignment shift of Slaughter Knights is a top secret within the War God Church, hardly known in the Western Desert.

Lis had already grown suspicious during the day, but didn’t inquire on the spot.

When Faith sneaked away at night, Lis, who had been watching attentively, immediately noticed.

That confirmed Lis’s suspicions.

Faith’s appearance before Lis and Taya during the day was forced, she had to kill witnesses.

Using the excuse of joining the War God Church to divert attention, and following the caravan to reduce Lis and Taya’s vigilance.

Lis estimated that after sneaking away at night, Faith wouldn’t even return to the War God Church.

After all, such matters would not be probed, the War God Church pays considerable attention to Slaughter Knights.

A bit too naive, running away the first night.

Lis thought he would need to wait a few nights like guarding a rabbit, heading to Turte Oasis, he wasn’t in a hurry.

Lis wasn’t in the mood to argue with Faith, capturing her and handing her over to the War God Church All divine churches have their special ways of dealing with traitors.

Maybe he can exchange Faith with the War God Church for some good stuff.

Like the opportunity for Taya to receive the War God’s baptism…

What a helpful person delivering a pillow when needed, providing timely help!

Lis looked at Faith with a hint of fervor in his eyes.

Faith shivered all over, feeling as if she was being eyed by some greedy beast.
