This daily game is so weird

Chapter 165 [Old Pope’s Notes]

While it was still daylight, everyone got on their horses and led the Holy Light Priest towards the abandoned church ahead.

As the "newcomer" in their team, Yu Zhou naturally followed them on horseback without much hesitation.

He did not directly summon his war horse, but decided to follow the others and follow the established plot route.

Only in this way can we carefully explore everything in this copy to ensure that we can get a perfect pass in one go!

From the conversations between these people, Yu Zhou already roughly knew that the mission of this copy was a "theft operation."

Although these people dress like Rangers, they are an out-and-out gang of thieves.

They call their organization "home."

And the "person at home" they refer to seems to be the boss who issues tasks to them.

Speaking of this boss, everyone has no respect in their eyes, but only fear engraved in their bones!

Yu Zhou couldn't help but wonder what kind of person the so-called boss was.

Among the six people on this trip, the main speaker was the woman named Theresa.

Besides Teresa, there is Kumac who likes to scare newcomers.

From both of them, Yu Zhou sensed a rather strong spiritual energy.

"The strength of these two people is at least at the level of a crazy tauren who has been whipped three times."

Yu Zhou secretly compared in his heart.

In fact, it is equivalent to the strength level of Treas in the Apostle of Earth copy.

As for the two thieves at the back who were guarding the Holy Light Priest, their strength was much weaker, at most the level of giant goblins.

In terms of overall strength, it is much stronger than the Earth Apostle copy with only one Treas as a helper.

"This means that the difficulty of this copy should be much higher than that of Earth Apostle."

It can be seen from their conversation.

In this dungeon, the monsters we will face may not only be the Apostle of Wind, but also the so-called crazy old pope.

"If nothing else, the old pope must have been infected by the wind apostle's demonic energy and became crazy."

"It will probably appear as an elite monster later."

"I just don't know if that old pope can be controlled by my 'Command All Monsters'."

There are also those believers who were killed by the Pope and turned into walking zombies.

Of course, it’s okay if you can’t control it.

Cut it off!

Thinking about it, everyone has arrived at the door of this abandoned church.

The land at the door of the church was covered with wet soil, and the horses' hooves stepped on it, splashing mud all over the ground.

"Fizz!"

When the horses came here, they stopped immediately, unwilling to take another step forward.

Seeing that the horse was no longer moving forward, everyone had to dismount and walk towards the abandoned church after cursing a few times.

"No, you can't go in! Absolutely not! You will die! We will all die!"

The Holy Light Priest suddenly shouted like crazy.

What he received instead was a fierce punch from one of the thieves, which hit him in the stomach. He immediately twisted in pain and knelt in the mud, retching.

"Be honest! If you don't want to die, just keep your mouth shut!"

Under the vicious gaze of the thief, the priest became a little quieter, but he still couldn't help but tremble with fear.

Teresa, the leader, turned back, looked at the priest, and said: "Don't worry, as long as you follow my instructions and use holy light magic to open the door to the last secret room. I will bring you safely to the ground and release you." For those friends of yours, I will also give you a commission."

"But, if I find out that you are playing tricks on me and deliberately refuse to use Holy Light Magic to open the door, then I will kill you and kill all your friends! You know, our Black Crow Thieves Group has always said the same thing."

Teresa threatened both softly and hard.

She is very beautiful and feminine, and the mole in the corner of her eye is even more charming.

But as a captain who can lead four male thieves in a team of thieves, no one would doubt whether she is really as heart-warming as a snake.

The pastor also calmed down a little after hearing his friends. His face showed a rare clarity and he said: "The last secret room is the sealed place of the devil's apostle. I can help you open the door to the secret room, but , you must not take away the sacred objects inside, absolutely not! Otherwise, the entire Varut Continent will fall into infinite despair!"

"Don't worry, we are just looking for money and have no interest in the holy object you mentioned."

Teresa smiled lightly.

Although she said so, Yu Zhou felt that she was lying.

Because when she heard the priest talking about the "holy object", she had a slight expression that brightened her eyes.

This expression told Yu Zhou that she was very interested in that holy object. In fact, the purpose of their trip was very likely to be that holy object!
"If it weren't for that holy object, there would be no need to bring this priest."

Yu Zhou didn't think that the place used to seal the Demon King's apostle would also store gold and silver treasures.

The only thing that may be available is the sacred object used to seal the devil's apostle!
These people may not know that once the holy object is taken away, the devil's apostle will be resurrected immediately.

By then, it won't be so easy to seal it back again.

Yu Zhou guessed that the current timeline should be around the time when the Apostle of the Earth was discovered to have awakened.At this time, people didn't know that the devil's apostles had begun to wake up.

More than 1000 years of comfortable time have worn away people's vigilance.

These thieves died for their money and had no idea what it meant to steal a sacred object.

Or rather, they don't care.

If the Demon King's army attacks, these profit-seeking thieves may choose to join the Demon King's army without a second thought and turn against humans.

What's more, it's not necessarily possible that they have colluded together very early.

However, that's not what Yu Zhou should worry about.

Now, he just wants to complete this dungeon, get the reward, and the second fragment of the Exorcist Sword!
thinking.

Under the leadership of Theresa, everyone walked into this church that had been abandoned for more than a year.

Although this church has only been abandoned for more than a year, everything in the church is seriously corrupted.

The walls were covered in black goo.

I can't tell if it's wet mildew or some other substance.

There was an unspeakable rancid smell in the air.

Everyone couldn't help but frown when they smelled it.

On the ground, there are several corpses that have been dead for a long time. You can see that these bones are also covered with a layer of wet black mold.

"Ah~ah~"

Outside the glass window, the unpleasant cries of crows could be heard from time to time.

The sky has darkened, and the originally cloudy weather has now turned cloudy, adding a bit of a gloomy feeling to the already quite permeable environment.

Except for Teresa and Yu Zhou, everyone couldn't help but feel terrified when they saw this scene.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Yu Zhou's extraordinary calmness was noticed by Teresa, which made her a little surprised.

After all, in her understanding, Yu Zhou was just a newcomer who had just passed various trials and officially joined the thieves group.

It's normal for newcomers to act calmly when committing petty thefts, but if they are involved with monsters and monsters, even a veteran like Kumac will inevitably feel nervous.

But Yu Zhou didn't, he was surprisingly calm.

It seems to have a plan in mind.

"Fortunately."

Yu Zhou just answered casually.

This indifference made Teresa even more curious.

She even admired Yu Zhou's calm nature in the face of danger. She smiled and said, "I hope you can still maintain this expression when we go to the underground secret passage later."

Hearing this, Yu Zhou just shrugged, noncommittal.

At this time.

Yu Zhou suddenly felt something stepped on under his feet. When he moved his feet and took a look, he found that it was a notebook with a sheepskin cover.

Yu Zhou picked it up and opened it.

Most of the content above was smudged due to moisture, and the text could not be read clearly. However, after turning over a few pages, some words could still be read. On it, Yu Zhou saw words such as Princess Lise.

I couldn't help but feel a little interested, so I continued to read.

Soon, Yu Zhou roughly understood the contents of the note:
[After the mysterious death of Queen Diana, the young Princess Lise was often awakened by nightmares. She said that in her dreams, her consciousness came to the distant land of the north wind, under the thousand-year-old cathedral, she traveled through At the end of the dark and damp secret passage, a terrifying demon was awakening. 】

[At first, no one would care about a little princess's dream, until an urgent letter was delivered to the Pope's Chamber.The letter said that the scent of monsters was corrupting everything in the church. I thought I must go to the land of the north wind. 】

[From under the Millennium Cathedral in the Land of the North Wind, I saw the door to the secret chamber that had been closed for thousands of years. The seal of the door had long been loosened.The devil's apostle inside seems to be awakening, and I must not sit idly by and ignore it. 】

[Timinos, who is only 14 years old, is already the one closest to the Holy Light among all the priests in the order.His talent is unparalleled.His integrity is unshakable.His courage needs no encouragement.He is young and I am old.I decided to hand over the position of the Pope to him, so that I could go to the Land of the North Wind without any distractions and strengthen the seal of this evil apostle of the Demon King. 】【Everything went well, the evil apostle was sealed back by me.As long as the door of the secret room is not opened, it will never cause any trouble.But we cannot relax yet, the flames of evil must be extinguished at the source! 】

[In the remaining time, I traveled to the sealing places of all the apostles and found that the seals of other apostles had also been loosened.Every time I think about this, I break out in a cold sweat!Fortunately, Princess Lise's dream was discovered early enough, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous! 】

[I have strengthened the seals of the other four apostles one by one. Although I have successfully strengthened the seals, so many things happened at the same time, which still makes me feel uneasy. 】

【I always feel that something terrible is going to happen.】

Once the notes are here, there is no follow-up.

This is a half-written notebook.

The other half was torn apart and disappeared.

But through this note, Yu Zhou already had a general understanding of what happened here.

"To put it simply, this old pope, after learning that the seals of the apostles were loose, began to travel around and strengthen all the seals of the five apostles. As a result, when he returned to this thousand-year cathedral again, he was attacked by the Apostle of Wind. Was it that the demonic energy eroded, controlled, and ultimately killed everyone, but instead helped the apostles break through the seal?"

Yu Zhou guessed.

If you look at it this way, this old pope is quite powerful. He actually strengthened the seals of five apostles by himself.

Unfortunately, it failed in the end.

As for the Timinos mentioned in the notes, he should be the young pope he had seen in the copy of the Demon King's Box before.

Timinos is indeed as upright, strong and determined as the old pope said.

"Have you found anything?"

At this time, Theresa's voice came. Seeing that Yu Zhou had been reading the diary, she couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing found."

Yu Zhou shook his head and threw away the notebook.

When Teresa saw this, she didn’t pay much attention.

After all, there are many books and notes placed in this abandoned cathedral. Although most of them are damp and rotten, they are not valuable items.

"arrive."

As everyone entered the deep hall of the cathedral, Theresa came directly to a candlestick and moved the candlestick.

The secret door on the floor suddenly opened slowly, revealing a deep and dark tunnel.

The darkness inside the tunnel is so dark that it makes people feel terrified.

When the Holy Light Priest saw this, he almost fell ill again, constantly muttering words such as "This is a curse, this is a curse, this is a curse."

He was woken up by a slap from the thief on the side.

It's no wonder that the priest got sick when he saw it. Even Yu Zhou felt a strong ominous aura when the tunnel appeared.

It's magic energy!
When outside, the perception of this demonic energy was not obvious yet.

Now as soon as this secret passage is opened, the demonic energy rushes towards his face.

It also indicates that danger has officially appeared!
puff.

At this time, a flame burned.

Everyone looked around and saw that Theresa was using fire magic to condense a fireball in her palm, then took a few torches and lit them.

She handed Yu Zhou a torch, and said to Yu Zhou with a dimple-like smile: "You go ahead."

"Oh."

Yu Zhou took the torch with an indifferent expression.

Then he walked into this secret passage without any hesitation.

Although there is indeed demonic energy in this secret passage, for Yu Zhou, who just killed the Apostle of Earth in his heyday at noon, this amount of demonic energy is simply child's play.

Seeing how brave Yu Zhou was, the smile on Teresa's face became even brighter.

"It's really a newborn calf that's not afraid of tigers."

Teresa murmured to herself.

The crowd moved on.

I saw that this secret passage spiraled downwards, and the stairs here were very old, slippery and fragile. Sometimes stepping on them would cause several sections of the stairs to break.

One of the thieves was so frightened that he dropped his torch and fell below.

The firelight illuminated the environment at the bottom of this secret passage. It was seen that the stairs of this secret passage were more than 30 stories high, and the bottom position was a deep pool with what looked like human corpses floating on the pool.

At this time, everyone just hopes that their imagination can be limited and not think too much.

Except Yu Zhou.

Yu Zhou's eyesight was much better than theirs, and he saw what was below at first glance. Just as they thought, there were indeed corpses below, not only in the water, but also on the land next to the pool. It's a corpse.

They are all the corpses of former believers of this cathedral.

As for why they are here, it is just like what Kumac said at the beginning of the dungeon.

Because they have become walking zombies and become another kind of evil creature after being invaded by demonic energy.

Thinking about it, they should have hid in this secret room to avoid the sun.

It is conceivable that after everyone goes down, these walking zombies will get up from the ground one by one and attack everyone crazily.

It's quite scary to think about it.

But judging from the feeling of demonic energy on their bodies, the actual strength is about the same as those small monsters in Apostle of the Earth.

Just miscellaneous soldiers.

Yu Zhou tried to use [Command - All Monsters] on one of them.

As a result, the zombie suddenly seemed to be inspired and slowly climbed up from the ground, its bones making a clicking sound.

"what sound?!"

With his sharp ears, Kumak immediately heard the sound and immediately became alert.

When Teresa saw it, she couldn't help but smile and said: "Kumac, why are you more timid than the new guy? It's a shame you were scaring him just now."

When Kumac heard this, his face turned red and he said, "Teresa, didn't you hear? There was a sound coming from below just now."

"I heard it, so what?"

Teresa turned back with a sinister smile and said: "Don't we see this kind of scene often? Don't forget, the person in the family who wants something by name must get it even if he dies! Otherwise, you and I will If you go back, your life will be worse than death!"

After saying this, Teresa took out the scimitar from her waist.

Seeing this, Kumak didn't say much, and quickly drew out his scimitar and became alert.

Others also drew their weapons and stood ready.

When Yu Zhou saw it, he took out an iron sword casually and held it in his hand.

Then he used the skill of commanding monsters to control all the zombies, telling them to lie down where they should, and to make way for those who were blocking the way.

So as not to scare the NPCs on your side.

Although I don’t know if the “perfect clearance” of this dungeon requires everyone on my side to survive, but in short, it is always right to protect it first.

Especially that Holy Light Priest.

He is the key to the deepest chamber.

Thinking about it, everyone successfully reached the bottom of the ground after walking more than 30 steps.

Here, corpses pile up like mountains and the stench is overwhelming.

Yu Zhou couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply took out his [Diving Oxygen Cylinder], connected the mask, and breathed the oxygen inside.Instant relief.

When everyone saw that Yu Zhou had taken out such a strange thing, they all asked what it was?
Teresa was also confused. She found that she couldn't see through this newcomer.

"It's nothing, it's just a personal hobby, don't worry about it. Next, just walk through the burial place and then through the long corridor, and you should reach the secret room, right?"

Yu Zhou asked Theresa.

Teresa looked along where Yu Zhou pointed and saw a long corridor.

At the end of the corridor, there were actually a few beams of light.

In this dark environment, the light that appears is both reassuring and strange.

To be honest, even though her psychological quality was as strong as Theresa's, she was a little worried.

But thinking of the Black Crow Thieves' punishment for the thieves who failed in their mission, she still nodded.

Then he bit the bullet and led everyone towards the long corridor.

This burial ground was controlled by Yu Zhou with his skills in advance, so although everyone was always vigilant, no fighting incident occurred until everyone successfully crossed the corpse burial ground.

In Yu Zhou's view, this was nothing.

After all, everything is under Yu Zhou's control.

But for others, this tranquility without anything happening is simply a precursor to the coming storm!
Weird to the extreme!
