Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?

Next, I am likely to witness the birth of the greatest legend since ancient times.

And since it’s impossible for me to escape from it now, I’ll just have to do my utmost for my current master!

On the day the plan succeeds, I will be a "founding hero"!

Edgar successfully convinced me, forcibly making me forget the fear.

"Summon the Holy Light Knight Order and launch a surprise attack on the remnants of the rebel army."

The Pope’s great power would let the army bypass the lengthy and tedious marching process, making the rebels face the iron fist of the Holy Light instantly!

Killing is necessary, as it is the first step in the ceremonial opening of the plan, hence the rebel army’s existence is due to the Pope’s permission.

"It’s starting, it’s starting, it’s starting...."

He kept muttering to himself, quickly flying towards the place where the Holy Light Knight Order was sleeping.

An invisible wave emanated from the top of the tower and spread across the entire city in the blink of an eye, instantly covering the vast capital.

This noisy city suddenly became quiet at that moment.

"Hmm?"

In the slums of the capital, Todd, hidden under the cover of dirt and poverty, suddenly shivered for no reason, his eyes even leaking a trace of Mad Fire, almost igniting the carpet under his feet.

"What a strange feeling, there’s something wrong."

Because of it, his Mad Fire seemed to become unprecedentedly active.

——————————

"Did the spy confess?"

"He confessed, he confessed to everything."

Hepa Town, inside the Starfire Church’s base.

The Starfire Knight in charge of interrogating the spy distributed copies of the records to the rebel army leaders in front of him and said:

"It’s been verified; he is indeed a spy from the Holy Light Church, and he infiltrated earlier than we initially inferred."

"To think there was still a hidden spy inside Hepa Town, the Holy Light Church truly lives up to being one of the Three Great Religions, they really have the means!" Someone couldn’t help but admire, admiring how formidable the spies trained by the old great church are; they indeed have a knack for training spies.

"So, is it possible that more spies are lurking here?" The Golden Bishop furrowed his brows deeply "and we didn’t notice at all."

"No, you may rest assured on this point, because according to the spy, he is the sole remaining spy in Hepa Town and its surroundings, and the reason he wasn’t discovered is that he hasn’t caused any notable sabotage activities since he arrived."

The Starfire Knight found it hard to maintain his expression at this point, but he still forced himself to hold back the urge to laugh.

They thoroughly interrogated the spy, investigating everything from his birth to the present, naturally including the few pieces of intel he transmitted to the Holy Light Church.

In the end, upon close examination, those pieces of intel turned out to be utterly useless.

It’s safe to say that the only notable thing the spy ever did since his career began was inciting a protest against the Starfire Church, which ended up being abruptly interrupted by the sudden appearance of Temude and others.

He was most unfortunate indeed.

"Hmm..." The Wilderness Bishop pondered for a moment and said: "That is indeed good news."

However, conversely, because the spy himself was of such a low level, he had no access to any classified information, leading to the situation where despite the Starfire Knight’s efforts, no valuable intel could be extracted from him.

"It seems to be all trivial stuff." Luluwo, who had somehow mixed into the meeting, said while flipping through the interrogation records, not minding the shocked stares she was receiving from those around her.

Everyone present went through the records, and indeed didn’t find anything intriguing; the information disclosed by the spy was either already known to them or was of no consequence even if unknown.

It appeared there was little to no gain?

"However, we did discover something quite noteworthy about him."

The words from the Starfire Knight raised everyone’s heads, signaling him to continue.

"He hasn’t been able to contact anyone from the Holy Light Church for a long time."

"Whether it’s his direct superior, other colleagues, or even the channels he had control over, none responded at all."

The Golden Bishop said after listening: "Perhaps it’s because he’s been abandoned? And he’s unaware of this."

"That possibility cannot be ruled out, but he even found more channels to contact through his investigation; yet none responded. He reportedly even left Hepa Town and went to a nearby city during this period, but there was no colleague there either... I think something is seriously wrong here."

It was at this point that Hevi took up the conversation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you remember the timing of the letters we’ve recently received?"

"What?" People asked perplexedly, but soon someone widened their eyes as if they had thought of something "Are you saying these two things..."

"We have many methods of contact with other units, and while letters aren’t the primary mode, they are plenty in number, and I happened to notice something."

Hevi said seriously: "The timing of receiving replies has become increasingly delayed recently, according to what I understand, some people haven’t received replies at all."

"And the replies from the frontline units have almost disappeared altogether." The Starfire Knight added.

"Huh?"

Someone let out a surprised sound, someone closed their eyes in thought, and someone directly arrived at a conclusion:

"The Three Great Religions have silently begun their assault!"

Indeed, the only explanation for this situation could be the machinations of the Three Great Religions.

"But when did this begin? How long have they been attacking?"

"Damn it, why hasn’t the frontline unit responded at all, why haven’t we received any news!"

"The letters we’ve received could all be forged!"

The meeting hall instantly became a chaotic mess; upon hearing such news, it’s tough for anyone to remain rational.

At this moment, Hevi clapped his hands, and the noise in the room miraculously subsided.

"Considering the current situation is not optimistic, we must make a decision immediately."

The Wilderness Bishop nodded and said: "I believe we must immediately unite with the garrison forces of other cities to form a joint army, advance to the frontlines and find out what’s going on there!"

Everyone present agreed with this decision.

Given the current situation, if they continued to hide inside Hepa Town without taking any action, they might not even know how they died when the time came!

Faced with this scenario of clamorous discussion on strategic deployment, Luluwo took a deep breath, muttering "This is bad, this is bad" while looking around.

Hevi noticed her actions and asked: "What’s wrong with you, by the way, how did you get in here?"

Luluwo scratched her face and showed a difficult-to-discuss expression "Well, now might not be the best time to talk about me, it’s a bit untimely."

"Just say it," Hevi said: "I have time for that."

"Ah, then I’ll say it, I’m actually here to ask for some support or something, but it seems like you guys might not have time to help us now."

Hevi raised an eyebrow, "What do you need support for?"

"To take down Gwyn."

"?"

A question mark popped up over Hevi’s head.

"Take down... what?"

"Gwyn, of course."

Seeing his look of astonishment, Luluwo finally revealed a triumphant smile, making a peace sign as she said: "We’ve already gathered the King’s Souls!"

With these words, the noisy meeting hall fell silent in unison, and everyone turned to look over.

Hevi didn’t quite understand; he knew the King’s Souls of the Chaos Breeding Ground, the Four Kings of Little Londo, and White Dragon Heiss had been obtained, but wasn’t there still the Tomb King Nite left? He hadn’t heard anyone mention getting the Tomb King’s—

"I have his King’s Soul."

The door of the meeting hall was pushed open, and a blinding sunlight flooded in.

Basking in the sunlight, Leon revealed the Royal Artifact emblem on the back of his hand.

The King’s Soul belonging to Tomb King Nite immediately burned in his hand.
