Shadow Covenant

Chapter 47 "Infiltrating"

——"The negotiation was successful."

— "You managed to trick a cultist into thinking you were an ally."

——"Negotiation +3, fraud +5, performance +3."

As a line of data quietly appeared in front of Woody's eyes, his tense body relaxed slightly.

The first level is over.

But this doesn't mean that he can pretend to be safe and sound until the end. Next, he has to look directly at that guy.

A sacrilege who has transformed into a perfect form.

How to perform at that time is a huge difficulty.

In addition to praising its charm to the monster covered with tumors and abscesses, it may also be like in the game CG, as a reward from the superior to the subordinate, that is, to let the subordinate servants suck the juice of the tree trunk like a cicada , sucking his cysts and abscesses.

Double the thrill.

Unless it is a believer who really believes in the corrupt mother tree, no one can regard this reward as an incomparable and delicious gift.

Normal players may be able to praise the greatness of the corrupt mother tree to Grandia, and use the familiar prayers that every blasphemer will recite in the previous game.

But those who can do the latter by relying on charm alone are probably rare.

Woody naturally also considered the latter possibility, so he also made some adjustments after entering the secret shop for the second time.

The purpose is to further reduce the probability of exposure.

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet? My name is Grandia, but it seems that you already know it.",

"Where do you come from?"

"Is your mask made of winter wolf skulls? And can I see your face?"

Wait until the driver Yoyo wakes up.

Woody had already sat in the black carriage at Grandia's invitation, and was greeted warmly by Grantia as soon as he entered.

If it weren't for the fact that there were only single seats inside and the two of them were separated by a table, Woody would even feel that she could not help but touch her body.

"..."

Woody didn't know how to answer for a while, but what can be confirmed is that if you say less, you will make fewer mistakes, and if you say more, you will make more mistakes.

Therefore, when Grandia talked about his knowledge about the corrupt mother tree, he only used part of the knowledge he learned from his previous life memory to answer.

But to be honest, Woody didn't have access to the high-end combat power of the corrupt mother tree in his last life.

All monsters from Tier [-] to Tier [-], including Xenomorphs.

From the bottom level of challenge level 2, "corrupted strange monster" with a personal level of 4 to challenge level 10, with a personal level of more than 15 "Rotting Soul."

He has encountered almost all of them, and he has also beheaded them.

With the help of enthusiastic players on the forum, those profane cultists had their underpants stripped out.

Even the putrid juices sprayed by the cysts in their body parts are accurate to the centimeter.

It can be seen how thorough and skilled the research is.

Although it has been a long time, it is more than enough for Grandia, who is also just getting started with the corrupt mother tree and is not proficient in knowledge.

After all, this is the advantage brought by knowledge accumulation.

But what Woody didn't expect was that the aristocratic girl who Woody remembered only a few times would be gentle and comforting, but at this moment, it was like a fan meeting a star, extremely enthusiastic, and the problems were one after another.

This kind of experience has never been experienced before, and I have to say it is very ironic.

But Woody remained calm, most of them closed their eyes and meditated, and only occasionally answered Grandia's questions.

But those few words satisfied Grandia.

After all, she was determined because her appearance was too close to the creatures created by the hypocritical gods, so she was indifferent to the man in front of her.

Being able to reply a few words is already a great gift to her.

……

As the carriage stopped, a man wearing a wolf-head mask and cloak and a cute and cute girl with blond wavy waist-length hair and a light pink court dress stepped out of the carriage at the same time.

"Mr. Gallon, I'm going to inform my mother now, please wait a moment."

Grandia cheered, as if she couldn't wait to share the good news with her mother, while Woody, whose pseudonym was "Garon", was observing the surroundings of the house.

We are observing which places are suitable for hiding "corruption aberrations", generally speaking.

As the corrupt mother tree, most of the worshipers are the core believers who have advanced from "Profane Cultists" to "Flesh Weaver" spellcasters.

In addition to their own strength, they are powerful.

There are also a group of "corrupt monsters" transformed from human beings who are not afraid of death.

Among them, if the corpse of a professional is transformed, after transformation, it will even be stronger than before.

If Woody killed the caster behind the scenes, then this group of creatures would have no restraints, and any movement might alarm them, especially the approach of creatures.

So Woody had to seriously find a way out for himself.

Of course, Grandia's mother, at this point in time, and according to the feedback in the city, is at best in the middle-level position of the Xenomorphs.

The strength is far from reaching the crazy limb reformer in Woody's memory who can stitch the wings of the white dragon, the eyes of the beholder, the arms of the snake man, and the chest of the undead into his body.

Nor is there a large group of strange monsters that can destroy a legion.

It is estimated that there are only a dozen or so corrupt monsters at most, plus the degree of appearance distortion, and at most a few special abilities brought about by the deformed limbs. Other than that, they are actually no different from normal third-ring spellcasters.

The only difficult thing is that her weakness has disappeared with the distortion, and the two fatal weaknesses of the heart and the head have changed with the corruption of the whole body.

Moreover, the advanced spellcasters of the profane cultists have almost no pain sensation, and their concentration is extremely high.

So if you want to interrupt his spellcasting, you must do it at the source, such as cutting off her arm, or making her mouth silent.

That's why Woody chose a scroll of "Lani's Laughter Technique".

Not only does this spell make all intelligent creatures that can make a sound laugh, it also forces the limbs of the creature to do the same.

Some people even used this to stop the breath of the dragon, but the dragon's magic immunity is very high, and they want to do this.

A spellcaster's unique supermagic feat "Spell Upgrade" must be required. Pay a certain price to increase the strength and ring number of the spell.

Of course, you can also put Lani's Laughter in a high-level spell slot to have the same effect.

However, this spell is not so easy to cast. It takes a certain amount of time even to open the scroll, and the subject's will to resist is not required to be too high, so it is very important to grasp the timing of casting the spell.

Moreover, the maintenance effect of the Laughter Technique is only six seconds. Originally, if Angelina was present, the monk gave him a weak point perception, and six seconds would be enough for him to stab the vitals three or four times, but now...

I can only hope that the scroll can have a good effect.

Before entering, Woody continued to observe the points where the corrupt monsters might be buried, to prevent the escape route from being hit by them later. Those guys didn't talk about fairness and fell down like hounds.

Many novice spellcasters didn't pay attention to the hidden corruption monsters, and the moment they were thrown down, they couldn't cast their spells, and their blood bars were emptied.

Woody may be able to deal with spellcasters, but there is really no way to deal with such a group of corrupt creatures that are stronger and faster than the sahuagin.

Grandia didn't keep him waiting long. Just halfway through observing Woody's escape route, the noble girl with skin like a porcelain doll took the initiative to grab Woody's hand and pulled him into the mansion.

"Mother wants to see you, what are you talking about "The Feast of the Stars"? How come she understands as soon as I say it."

The girl with long blond wavy hair and dragging the court dress with both hands looked curious and naive at this moment, as if she had an infinite thirst for knowledge.

If she wasn't asking about cult information, and he wasn't going to meet a cult caster, it should be very nice.

"The Feast of the Stars" is of course an internal beautification of the Blasphemer. In the player's file, it is a cruel and bloody evil sacrifice time and time again.

- "Scavenging Hunt"

This is an evil sacrifice to please and attract the corrupt mother tree.

All Sacrilegious Cult leaders will, after a certain period of time, lead their minions, as well as monsters transformed into corrupted aberrations, to collect living creatures, including members of the sentient race.

Woody remembers that in the 24 months after the golden year, they abducted and kidnapped women and children in various cities and city-states in broad daylight, and also stole precious plant specimens, and attacked various magical creatures in the forest. .

The sacrificial area spanned from the "Star Vortex Mountain Range" in the south to the large glacier called "The Fang of the World" in the north, and almost all the players at that time were swept into it, but it still failed to prevent the coming of the corrupt mother tree.

However, it was also related to the fact that the drow elves, the gray dwarves, the overlapping Shadowfall Underworld, and the creatures of the Fairy Wilderness showed their heads one after another.

At that time, no one would have thought that such a heavyweight world-ending disaster would come later.

It wasn't until the end that some people knew that what these cultists attracted was not the local gods who tried to enshrine the gods in vain, but the evil spirits that existed in this ancient wild world long before the birth of the gods and could cause positive energy distortion. Ancient Evil "Corrupted Mother Tree"

At that time, I didn't know that the deep and shallow player still wanted to deal with the corrupt mother tree with the same means as dealing with undead creatures.

It turned out that when a bottle of holy water was poured down, the opponent became stronger.

So many evil liches and other undead creatures at that time joined the army against the corrupt mother tree for their own safety.

After all, under the distortion of positive energy, these undead creatures born of negative energy are also its targets.

Thinking, Woody has followed Grandia to the door of the basement.

Grandia knocked on the door, and a hoarse and intermittent voice came from inside.

"come in."

at this time.The double iron doors in the basement were opened by an invisible force.

　Barely finished. . .Ah, I feel okay, because it has indeed advanced a lot compared to the first version. .The previous version of 4600 was outrageous even if Grandia hadn’t seen it. . .
