Chapter 72 The Repentant Priest



Su Bai suddenly looked up and gazed in another direction of the street.

"Player's voice?"

It should be correct.

Even if there are survivors in the chaotic district, they wouldn't make that kind of sound.

“This location…” Su Bai’s eyes flickered, and he already had a guess in his mind. He immediately rushed towards that direction, “It’s probably someone from the Azure Dragon Society.”

Because the location of the secret realm teleportation corresponding to each region's pass is fixed.

The northern outskirts of the Fallen Dragon Island where he is located correspond to the Mad Street area, and any passes dropped within this area will only arrive here.

And who else could be in the northern part of Fallen Dragon Island besides him and the Azure Dragon Society?

The place where the scream came from was two streets away from him. As he was crossing one of the streets, Su Bai suddenly stopped.

"I almost forgot the 'House of Silence' is here."

His expression was solemn.

On one side of the street in front of us stands a gray-white confessional. The small room is only big enough for one person to enter. Its wooden pointed roof and cross carvings give it a strong religious feel.

This confessional is also one of the rare resources in the neighborhood.

One elite unit will always spawn inside.

Despite being an elite, Su Bai had no intention of provoking it, because this elite monster possessed an extremely troublesome ability.

Forbidden magic.

Although his melee damage output is not bad either.

However, that elite monster is also extremely skilled in melee combat, and with his current level, he might very well lose here.

"You can't make a sound when passing through the Silent Chamber; it's impossible without stealth skills..."

"I think I'll take a detour."

Su Bai was making plans.

Just then, a disheveled figure suddenly appeared at the other end of the street corner.

Holding a cracked shield, Qinglong fled in panic, his heart bleeding. To deal with the suddenly appearing monster, he used two life-saving items he had acquired at high prices, but he could only barely hold it off.

But he didn't want to die here in such a pathetic state.

We finally managed to get in, but we haven't gathered a single useful piece of information. If we get killed by a mere monster like this, it would be too embarrassing to even tell anyone!

Bang!

A violent crashing sound came from the room he had just escaped from.

Qinglong was even more nervous. He crossed the street corner and immediately saw Su Bai, who was a hundred meters away from him.

After quickly determining that he was likely a player, Qinglong excitedly shouted:

"Friend, help me! I'll transfer you three thousand yuan if you help me survive!"

After he finished shouting.

They discovered that Su Bai was simply standing there motionless.

The atmosphere on the street was somewhat eerie, but the crazed patient behind them was about to catch up, leaving Qinglong no time to think.

He gritted his teeth and ran towards Su Bai's direction.

'Whoever you are, since you're here, you'll be my scapegoat this time!'

A sinister glint flashed in Qinglong's eyes.

He can use his shield once more. If he can withstand one monster attack, he can lure the monster towards him and escape.

Whether or not this would offend people was not even on Qinglong's radar.

He is the leader of the Azure Dragon Society.

Even if he offends someone, what can they do to him?

He turned and rushed into the street.

In an instant.

A deep sense of unease arose in Qinglong's heart.

That unease wasn't psychological; it was an intense feeling of suffocation, as if a giant hand was gripping his neck!

"Something's not right here!"

Qinglong was frantically issuing warnings in his mind.

He immediately turned around and tried to flee the street.

However, it was too late.

Squeak...

The wooden door to the confessional was slowly opened, and a tall figure squeezed out with difficulty from the narrow doorway.

It was a burly, towering priest. His face was ashen and expressionless, his eyes were cloudy and murky, and he wore a dark black top hat. He wore a wide black priest's robe with a cross pattern embroidered in gold thread, and he held a white scripture in his hand. When he faced the Azure Dragon, the scripture automatically turned several pages with a rustling sound.

He recited emotionlessly: "Lost and ignorant lamb...you are guilty, you need to repent..."

Buzz!

A grayish-white domain rapidly spread through the street, instantly catching up with Qinglong and enveloping him, making escape impossible.

Upon seeing this, Su Bai silently took a few steps back.

Domain skills are very rare even in the mechanics of boss monsters. Once trapped in a domain, it is very difficult for players to escape, and they must kill the unit that released the domain.

It is precisely because of this domain skill that this repentance priest, although only at the level of an elite monster, is even more troublesome than a regular boss monster.

Even he didn't want to provoke them.

Qinglong is doomed.

Su Bai thought to himself.

And that was indeed the case. Faced with the terrifyingly powerful Priest of Repentance, he tried to resist, but the Priest slapped him so hard that he spun around several times before kneeling on the ground. His head drooped, as if he were truly repenting, but in reality, he was already dead beyond dead.

"God will forgive your sins."

The repentant priest closed his scripture before the Azure Dragon's corpse and spoke eloquently. Combined with its bluish-black, lifeless face, the scene was incredibly eerie.

Su Bai had already left by the time it turned around.

There is only one way to deal with this penitent priest: either use sheer numbers or spare no expense to overwhelm him.

Make an 'atonement'.

Using an Indulgence Scroll grants one minute of repentance time, during which the priest will not attack you regardless of what you do.

This is the best opportunity to kill it.

However, the drop rate of the Indulgence Scroll is even lower than that of the Medical Record, and it spawns randomly across the entire map.

It all comes down to luck.

Su Bai doesn't need to waste too much time on this.

He continued on his way.

If you encounter a rich resource point along the way, search it. If there are troublesome monsters, don't dwell on them and just bypass them. Soon your backpack will be full.

After passing through a low-rise neighborhood.

Ahead, several three-story buildings standing in the civilian district finally came into his view.

The high-rise buildings with white walls and red tiles stand out among the gray-toned residential buildings.

That's the rich neighborhood.

The most bustling area in the entire chaotic district.

At this moment, from a distance, one can see countless blood-red vines climbing among the bright tiles, like meticulously manicured decorative ivy, which is quite pleasing to the eye. And through the gaps between the buildings, one can see that in the center of several high-rise buildings, a huge and gorgeous blood-red flower seems to be blooming.

The crimson flower trembled slightly, releasing a large amount of pollen that drifted into the sky on the wind. Even from several streets away, Su Bai could smell the strong fragrance.

"Some preparations are needed to enter the wealthy area..."

Su Bai slowly withdrew his gaze.
