Reward: 35 points of general strength, 100,000 faith points...]"

Arghhhh!!! 

Boom! 

A light agent was suddenly sent flying towards the wall when Volac, from a distance, attempted to possess him. Upon realizing he was protected by the hand of God, Volac felt disgust and forcefully threw him in place.

"Stand firm, shoot to kill, and don't stop doing it!" 

"Zz. Switching to a higher caliber, I'll take care of the demonic figures!" 

"Zz... I think I broke some ribs; I can't move."

Anton exhaled forcefully, and the tattoos hidden on his body began to glow like stars in the sky. Each person around him received a tattoo of a hammer and a shield. 

This ability, at least, would give them the chance to maintain composure, guard their souls, sense their surroundings, and not be as physically harmed.

"The Guardians, the blessing of the Guardian Angels..." Anton activated his ability, the 50,000 Guardians, using ten thousand faith points directly to protect his soldiers.

Against the darkness, there was no way he would spare effort, especially when each person here still needed to see the outcome of their efforts in this place.

Boom! The violent explosions around them made the place chaotic, but all the agents were well-coordinated, giving each other space to successfully repel the dark entities.

At that moment, Anton felt the ground vibrate, and as his gaze moved towards the back hallway, he saw more stone figures approaching. Immediately, he began manipulating the darkness to reduce the burden on the agents around him. Maneuvering his darkness manipulation, dozens of blades flew as Anton's hands waved in the air.

The powerful blades cut those stone creatures in half, which were being controlled by the demon. Once he eliminated most of them, Anton took a step forward to suppress Valac.

"Zz... The Guardian Bishop is taking care of suppressing the demon; it's our moment to prepare the reverse ritual to suppress the demon."

Boom! 

Anton, on the other side, collided forcefully with the demon, now transformed into a goat. His Hand of God was activated, so his blood was like acid to the demon, who roared incessantly.

Arghh!!! When Anton believed he had control, the force of Valac became more aggressive as it realized they were trying to seal it.

Boom! Anton, who was holding the demon's body, was thrown several meters away, crashing into the wall. The impact cracked the old wall, letting some realize the issues he faced. Some began shooting at the demon.

"I'll handle it; defend the relic!" Anton manipulated the darkness, using it like a lasso to hold the demon's goat leg.

The demon's current form might not be dangerous if you had good resistance to physical blows, but those weren't all the demon's abilities. 

The students of the soldiers who had stepped forward to shoot at Valac were sent flying by a gust of wind. Anton, who was approaching, was held back by an invisible wall.

"Ahhhhhh!" 

Bang! Bang! Bang! 

"Don't get closer!" 

Crack! 

Anton's scream did not come in time, as several agents at the front had their necks broken, causing a sinister laugh from Valac.

"I'm going to bury you alive!" Anton's eyes glowed blue, and the sword in his hand was summoned. At the same time, using great manipulation of divine energy, he managed to pierce through the barrier that held him and, at a terrifying speed, fiercely strike the demon's heart.

"Ahhhhh!" 

Anton, who had appeared in front of Valac, swung his sword, causing black blood to pool on the ground. At this point, the demon's eyes locked onto Anton, who stared back fearlessly, as if he didn't fear it at all.

"Fight me, cursed demon!" 

Boom! 

Anton, with his supernatural strength, slammed the demon's body from the ground against the wall. Without any compassion, he began slashing it with his sword.

"Come on, the guardian won't hold forever." 

Bang! Bang! Bang! 

Agents crawling on the ground with broken limbs didn't stop shooting at the stone figures emerging from the darkness. At the same time, the exorcists took out the relic where they would seal the demon.
