Chapter 208: Within the dim sewers

Chapter 208: Vol3 Ch8: Within the dim sewers

The entire town was in extreme silence this morning, and Negary was reorganizing Green’s memories in order to find out more information from it.

This world was divided into various regions, one of them was this town of Lohr. Some people said that there used to be a country here a very long time ago, but now even the name of the country had been lost.

The management and development of this city town was done completely autonomously, but religion had completely dominated over all self-government. There was even a specific clause in both the bible and constitution pointing out clearly that humans are the property of God.

The only difference was which God you were the property of among the seven Righteous Gods.

The treatment of non-believers in the Righteous Gods could be considered relatively amiable, although the bible stated that non-believers would reincarnate into the bodies of inferior creatures when they died, the people of the church merely looked down on non-believers without forcing their beliefs on them.

On the other hand, they would do everything in their power to eliminate any Evil God cultists.

Other than those who had Saint Souls, the souls of everyone else were naturally born sinful; when a sinful soul awakened, that person would become a monster, and those who awakened would be regarded as sinners.

However, there were always a few people who obtained wicked items in various shapes and sizes, then became misled by it. For cliche reasons like power, wealth, or lifespan, those people chose to awaken their sinful souls.

And anyone who did so would turn into non-human aberrations without fail.

The above was the knowledge that Reid taught Green. As he came across this memory, Negary felt a bit strange.

〖 Both the awakening of a sinful soul and saint soul are surely the release of [Origin], but then why would sinful souls only awaken as inhuman monsters? Could it be due to Origin Assimilation? But it doesn’t seem like it at all 〗Negary continued to ponder: 〖 Or perhaps, there was something unusual about the release itself? 〗

The means of releasing one’s [Origin] differed from world to world, even the most common method of Witchcraft release through the use of potions to stimulate the [Origin] would be hindered by the natural environment of each world.

For example, during the second cycle of the Disaster world, the world was naturally filled with psychic factors that anyone with enough talent could absorb into their bodies in order to awaken psychic abilities.

〖 The seven Righteous Gods…〗Negary’s eyes flickered. From the currently available information, there was no way for him to determine what level the Gods were at, which gave off a feeling of outer-worldly superiority.

〖 I need to research them further 〗

On the other hand, Negary was relatively confident in his understanding of Red Sun Knights, he believed that their constitution shouldn’t be inferior to his viral body, if at all.

According to Reid’s explanations, after joining the foundation troop of the church – a Steel knight – one would periodically be baptized by Holy Water; once a divine technique had fully synchronized with one’s constitution, then received a bishop’s Blessing of Glory, they would then be promoted to a Glory knight.

A Glory knight must fully then synchronize their divine technique constitution with the Blessing of Glory, after which they would receive the Brand of the Red Sun and officially become a Red Sun Knight.

〖 A powerful constitution, together with the power of their divine techniques and blessing of power, they should be no weaker than those who had achieved the second stage of release. Furthermore, while they do not have the unique and strange abilities of a released individual, they are surely more well-rounded 〗

〖 There are some who said that there are Divine Guards in the Sun Shadow church’s headquarters, who would be bestowed a ritual conducted by the Eternal Heat himself, becoming closer to the path of God and obtain strength that far surpassed a Red Sun Knight, such people should be considered to have reached the third stage of release 〗

Negary’s gaze turned towards Reid’s room, if that really was the truth, then the seven Righteous Gods were at least individuals who reached the same level as the New Deity and Progenitor Dragon.

〖 This world’s murky water is very deep 〗

…

At twilight, Reid donned his armor while carrying his helmet in his hand. After talking with Negary a bit, he immediately left.

The Sun Shadow church had discovered traces of either an Evil God cultist or of a sinner, so tonight he would need to participate in a subjugation mission.

However, he didn’t notice that one of the golden petals on the decorative sun corona of his helmet was moving ever so slightly.

After confirming the location of his germ, Negary silently left the house as well.

Although Negary had concluded that a Red Sun Knight was equivalent to someone at the second stage of release, and they were more well-rounded compared to a regular person at the second stage of release, sometimes being well-rounded also meant that they were also mediocre, especially when it came to the realm of the soul.

They considered those who awakened sinful souls to be sinners, and Red Sun Knights used their faith to defend against attacks that also came from the soul, but their understanding of such things weren’t very spectacular, which was why they needed armor to protect themselves.

Negary was tailing Reid from afar, his appearance now changed. A purple-black cloth covered his face, his physique had also been changed back to his original form, with the short clothes clinging to his body, his balanced muscles exuded a sense of otherworldly charm.

A pair of bone blades suddenly protruded from his arms, with a flash of light, his figure completely vanished. As this was an application of physics and the germ’s characteristic, Negary’s optical camouflage didn’t give off a single bit of energy fluctuation.

Sensing the germs on Reid’s helmet, Negary’s figure quickly moved along the alleyways of Lohr. Lohr’s city layout was truly complicated, with so many buildings of the same style being built on different levels; sometimes, the top of one house’s roof could be right next to another house’s entrance.

If an outsider came to visit this place, they would surely get lost without any doubts.

Negary was continuously recording the surrounding buildings and drawing a map in his mind. In combat, using the environment could usually bring unimaginable advantages, so getting used to the terrain layout for both retreat and pursuit was absolutely necessary.

Otherwise, you won’t even be able to inject a blood vial in time while Djura snipes off over half of your HP.

〖 Right below! 〗Negary landed on top of a building, the city’s river moat was right in front of him. Although, rather than calling it a river, it was better off called a garbage dump at this point.

Because this place was connected to the city sewers, the entire river was giving off a gut-wrenching foul stench. A lot of unrecognizable things were floating on the surface of it, including flies, maggots, wild grass, and several unknown creatures, no ordinary citizen of Lohr would ever make their way down here.

Due to the massive amount of assorted garbage, the water level wasn’t actually that deep, the most it would reach was one’s knee, while the muddy floor below was made up of unknown substances.

Negary was silently observing the situation below, without any doubt, this place was his home field, containing numerous germs and viruses to be used as he liked. This could also become a lab to experiment with the power of impurity that he learnt from Shennai.

〖 They’re fighting inside the underground sewers? 〗Negary jumped down without hesitation, landing on top of the muddy water. Following his connection with the germs, he found the entrance to the underground sewers. The closer he got, the less light there was, so the optical camouflage Negary was employing became undone and revealed his figure; he was ironically more visible in the darkness than he was in the light.

The sewers were surprisingly large, with several forked paths built into it. Occasionally, there would even be movement from various strange creatures, if Negary didn’t have his connection with his germs, he might have actually gotten lost.

As Negary went further in, the originally wet and dirty state of the sewers started to change. When he turned at an abandoned branch of the sewers, the ground gradually became hardened black mud, abandoned stretches of sewers like this numbered in the hundreds, scattered all over the underside of Lohr. With how complicated and disorienting they were, it was the perfect place for Evil cultists to set up base.

In the area that Negary had just entered alone, he discovered the traces of at least seven different groups.
