"The 'blood of redemption' used on ordinary people is already a highly diluted product."
"But it can already treat all known diseases!"
"They also have even more concentrated reagents, which are said to grant people special powers! The Church of Redemption used this special blood to create many terrifying monsters..."
"If I could find the original sample of this blood, perhaps I could develop a drug that could completely cure mania!"
She looked at Su Bai with burning eyes.
Understanding her meaning, Su Bai shook his head slightly, "It's too early to talk about these things now. Tell me about the Lord of Nothingness first. How many gods are there in this city?"
The two finished tidying up while talking.
Yusufka seemed to have guessed that he would not return here, so he took everything he could.
Su Bai helped tidy up for a while.
After talking.
He also roughly understood what kind of being was the guy who caused such a large-scale disaster as 'divinely granted offspring'.
Let's first talk about the main forces that once ruled this city:
The Church of Redemption.
At its peak, the Church of Salvation was practically the only religious church in the city.
The god they worship is called the Lord of the Universe.
Also known as: The Eternal Moon.
The believers of the Redemption Church are extremely fanatical in their faith in this God.
Basically, it has reached the point where anyone who dares to raise a single dissent will be labeled a heretic and hanged in the street.
and.
Their fervor was not only reflected in upholding the majesty of the gods.
Some members of the church leadership suggested that in order to receive God's favor, they must draw closer to God and listen to more of His teachings.
Therefore, in order to get closer to this deity, they successively carried out many large-scale sacrificial ceremonies that were both labor-intensive and costly.
During that period, the entire city was living in misery.
Until later.
A scholar named Lawrence proposed another way to approach God...
The seeds of disaster were sown at that moment.
Yusefka didn't know exactly what happened; all she knew was that shortly afterward, the Church of Redemption suddenly announced the introduction of 'blood therapy'.
The initial effects of blood therapy were indeed miraculous.
Regardless of any injury or illness.
Regardless of race.
All ailments can be cured with just one injection of 'blood of redemption,' and it is highly regarded by people.
Until the rampage virus broke out...
After the disaster, people's attitudes toward the Redemption Church plummeted to rock bottom.
The rule of faith collapsed.
Countless churches that were originally hidden have also emerged.
Taking advantage of this disaster, they spread their faith, recruited followers, and expanded their influence.
The Church of Nothingness emerged around that time.
They gained a large following by selling an incense that could 'cure' viral outbreaks—that is, sleep-inducing incense.
However, this was later proven true.
Sleep-inducing incense only has a temporary suppressive effect on the mania virus.
Moreover, its side effects are no less severe than those of the madness virus.
But by then...
There are very few survivors left in the city.
"So I really want to know what they discovered back then... There are rumors that they dug up something forbidden underground, and that the 'Blood of Redemption' comes from that forbidden thing."
Yusevka bit her lip lightly.
"Even if you knew, you're too weak. That's a level you can't even begin to grasp."
Su Bai said without any politeness.
Yusevka was about to say something when he made a shushing gesture.
Shh, we're going out.
She immediately shut her mouth with a resentful look on her face.
Climbing out of the deep well and back into Slaughter Alley, Su Bai could no longer hide his presence.
He could use the Mask of Oblivion to hide himself.
Yusufka, however, could not.
Su Bai had already made the worst-case scenario plan: to fight his way out. As long as he didn't encounter the boss monster, no monster could stop him.
laugh!
Light the incense.
A cloying aroma gradually filled the air.
However, the scent of incense could not mask the strong stench in the slaughterhouse alley at all, so the effect was the same as having no effect.
Youssefka pulled out a special mask from somewhere.
After taking it with me, I followed closely behind him.
"Don't worry, I won't run away. Running away here alone would be tantamount to suicide. I'm aware of that much."
She spoke up on her own initiative.
"How did you manage to survive here before?"
Su Bai asked curiously.
"The monsters here aren't active all the time. There's a time each day when they all fall into a deep sleep, and I take advantage of that time to come out and find something to eat."
Yusufka said.
"That's why I live here. At least I understand the rules of survival here better than I do outside."
"oh."
Su Bai briefly inquired about the matter but did not delve into further questions.
But what she mentioned—that the monsters in the civilian area would collectively go into a period of slumber? That was something he had never heard of before.
Maybe,
It's related to the strange behavior of the monster he saw when he arrived.
But that's not what he needs to explore right now; his immediate priority is to get Youssefka out safely.
Completing the woman in the yellow dress's follow-up tasks is secondary.
Su Bai's idea was to find Yusevka a completely safe place.
Let her survive until I can take her away.
Thump!
Halfway there, a door in the alley suddenly opened, and in the light, a thick arm reached out.
