According to what was said on the internal forum, there were some devil materials in Nanwu County that, during processing, ended up with the numbers not matching—some parts went missing.
Then, in the last two days, over in Europa, rumors started circulating from inside the Church's holy sanctuary: someone was hawking devil materials inside the Holy Land, and some people had already gotten their hands on them.
There were even rumors that said someone had a whole intact Devil's Body stashed away—a real heavy hitter reserved for desperate times.
Especially since, outside the sanctuary, they found someone from another sect using a devil's skull as a magic artifact. He caught the guards off guard and managed to escape in the chaos.
Eyewitnesses claim that the skull was only a half-finished product, not yet made into an artifact. The guy just had no other choice, was forced into a corner, took it out for a one-time use—and paid a pretty heavy price for it.
