Chapter 759: Dragon Hunt!
As a self-proclaimed know-it-all in the Thane Dungeon, Hevi had naturally heard of the White Cult.
It is said that someone accidentally obtained the right to use a series of miracles related to the White Church in the endless cycle of reincarnation. Although he did not learn it in the end, he also brought out a lot of information.
For example, the White Church seems to be a religion with considerable influence in Lordran. The main god of their faith is named Lloyd, but this main god has never appeared in any image of the Senn dungeon, which makes him quite mysterious.
For example, this church is always hunting undead, but people don’t know why they are hunting. According to Hervey’s guess, the undead in the Northern Undead Asylum might have been thrown in by the White Church.
Perhaps it's because the Dark Ring that caused the birth of the undead is considered a curse. Religion likes to hunt down things that seem like heresy, doesn't it?
Also, the White Cult seems to have its own oath. Every oath-taker likes to help each other, but when it comes to outsiders, they don't seem to be so enthusiastic. No one knows what the benefits of making the White Cult oath are.
This is all the intelligence information about the White Church, which should be considered very scarce from the outside world's perspective.
However, compared with many things in the Sen Dungeon that are only mentioned briefly in fragmented narratives, it seems that the information about the White Church is relatively abundant.
Although these extra contents are of no use, I still don’t understand what I shouldn’t understand.
In Hervey's opinion.
Throughout history, new religions have emerged all the time, and old religions have been buried by the wheels of history in polar sandstorms at any time and place. The existence of the White Church is probably a typical representative of those churches that have not been able to be successfully passed down.
So there was nothing to worry about. It wasn't a church related to Gwyn, and he was too lazy to find out more about the White Church.
They are more concerned about what benefits this fat man who believes in the White Church can bring to them.
Petrus doesn't look like a good person, but he is quite reliable in doing things. He directly told everyone the approximate location of the painting world, which is at the junction of the Undead Town and the Undead Parish outside the city. People still need to find the specific location by themselves.
This location just happened to be in line with Hervey and his group's itinerary. Although he hadn't seen what the Undead Parish Priest looked like, he thought that if he wanted to go there, he would have to get rid of the red flying dragon first, so it was just on the way.
Come to think of it, Hervey also wondered if he could gain any benefits from Petrus if he signed the White Church oath. Isn't that generally the routine?
But unfortunately, no Spark Knight wants to change his oath, not only because they don't have any feelings for the White Church, but more because the Sun Warrior Oath also adds bonuses to the skills that everyone is currently good at, such as the Thunder Spear.
If you change your oath for the sake of a reward that may not exist, which leads to your strength becoming weaker and you eventually die on the battlefield, it would be a complete loss.
"It's quite surprising that we didn't have to take a long detour to get to the Thane Dungeon this time."
"Let's go, it's time to officially set off. I can't wait to bathe in dragon's blood."
"Be careful of parasites."
Hervey joked with his teammates, "I mainly want to see if there are any painting worlds related to the Sun Warriors. Any unknown thing like the White Cult is fine."
Petrus had been watching them leave quietly, but Hervey's words suddenly made him retort loudly and seriously:
"The White Church is the most powerful church, with influence throughout Lordran. What on earth are you—"
"By the way, what are we having for dinner tonight?"
"First, see if you can get back to camp tonight before you think about what to eat. You've been thinking about food all day, and it's only morning!"
“.”
However, Petrus's speech, which was full of the spirit of defending his own beliefs, did not seem to be taken seriously by the Spark Knights.
If Sion's dungeon implements a favorability system for afterimages, I guess this guy's favorability towards Hervey and others will quickly drop to freezing point.
It's a pity that the Sion dungeon has not been implemented, so when Hervey and the others left the range of the Firelink Shrine, not only Petrus but also Brother Dispirit who was sitting next to them, both paused all their movements and stayed where they were as if they had turned into a statue that could not move.
After the adventurers walked further away, the two of them simply turned into a streak of light and disappeared. It seemed that they would not reappear until people came back here again.
This is energy conservation and environmental protection.
Not long after, Hervey and his group once again went deep into the Undead Town outside the city, fighting wits and courage with monsters that could appear at any time and anywhere in the complex terrain.
To be more precise, it is mainly a battle of bravery, because adventurers can never find all the places where monsters appear, and there will always be a few monsters hiding in blind spots and rushing out to scare you.
Moreover, the Sen Dungeon seems to know that the appearance of these monsters will definitely scare people, so every time these insidious monsters show up, they will howl and scream, which will make people think of Yharnam in a minute.
It must be intentional. The monster design in Sion's dungeon must be intentional!
If Sean had a soul, he would probably laugh when he saw the adventurer being frightened!
The above is the angry words of the Spark Knights when they were frightened by monsters and almost suffered cardiac and respiratory arrest several times.
Sometimes, in order to show off their professionalism, people go to tricky places to look for monsters. However, the Sen Dungeon does the opposite and hides the monsters in simple and clear places.
The result was that people were shocked again, which was a pinnacle of battle of wits!
"Rest a little, Hervey, my heart aches."
"Me too, a little bit too."
Some people looked like they couldn't hold on any longer!
No matter what, although the strength is already quite strong, humans are still made of flesh and blood, and when they are frightened, they will show symptoms of maladjustment.
"Don't rest, we are going to do something big." Hervey slashed the two men who wanted to rest with the Strangler Dragon Fang, and the two excited muscular men jumped up immediately.
It was at this moment that a roar that resounded through the sky was heard.
The crimson dragon sensed their approach.
There seemed to be many roads leading to the Dragon Bridge - they simply called this bridge occupied by dragons the Dragon Bridge. The terrain of the Sean Dungeon would be fine-tuned, but the map logic remained unchanged. The Spark Knights strictly followed the route they took when they entered here last time.
A road extending from the side of the Flying Dragon Bridge and hidden in the Undead Town is actually a dilapidated staircase that can be climbed up.
There is also a staircase leading to the interior on the bridge deck, but if you want to go there, you must first go up the bridge and then run over under the dragon flame, which is unacceptable to everyone's plan.
Logically speaking, since there is a road leading to the interior of the bridge, there should also be a road inside the Undead Town that can connect to the interior of the bridge. With this idea in mind, people searched in the Undead Town for a long time before successfully finding a road leading to the interior of the bridge, but in the end, for the sake of safety, they still took the old route.
"Remember, we must first sneak to the edge of the bridge, use our combined lightning spears to blast away the dragon's drums to weaken the enemy, and then quickly retreat. In short, we must not stay near the edge of the bridge or in the middle, otherwise, like last time, the bridge will collapse and take us down with it."
"But what if the dragon holds a grudge? What if it remembers our last attack?"
"Generally speaking, the memories of dungeon monsters don't carry over into the next day. We need to be quick, accurate, and ruthless. The dragon's roar just now means the enemy has noticed us, but they definitely can't predict our actions. Let's fight quickly and decisively!"
"good!"
Without further delay, the crowd rushed directly to the edge of the bridge, each of them holding a thunder gun that roared, and they had already condensed the thunder gun while running!
Sunlight from outside streamed in through the narrow bridge tunnel. Hervey was the first to rush out, holding high his giant thunder spear and shouting, "Everyone, throw your lightning bolts at me!"
Then several lightning spears merged into his giant lightning spear, and he suddenly stepped out of the bridge hole and turned towards the place where the flying dragon was in his memory!
His heroic posture is like a legend!
The moment you step out of the bridge!
There was nothing where the flying dragon had been.
"Um?"
Hervey's throwing action suddenly stopped, and he even rushed out because he almost couldn't stop the car.
Where is the dragon?
How can I be such a big dragon?
I had just used my fighting spirit to sense that the flying dragon was staying there obediently.
Before his doubts could continue to ferment, a hot breath suddenly came from behind him.
Yes, behind him, the shadow of a huge monster was cast at this moment.
The Spark Knights who had not yet run out of the bridge hole screamed in surprise, and Hervey also broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that the terrifying monster must be behind him at this moment.
The other party anticipated their prediction!
As we all know, if you feel a furry claw on your shoulder while walking at night, it is most likely that a monster is about to attack you. At this time, if you stay still and don't look back, you may be able to delay the monster attack before it starts.
So Hervey didn't turn around.
He simply turned around and threw the giant thunder gun behind him!
At the same time, raging flames were coming from behind him. Feilong would never follow the strategy of not moving unless the enemy moved.
“Boom!!!”
Flames and lightning collided under the bridge, exploding into dazzling fire and lightning. The natural roar was accompanied by the shouts of the Spark Knight and the painful roars of the flying dragon!
The next moment, this seemingly sturdy bridge began to collapse from the middle again. It was Feilong who used the same trick to knock it down!
However, this time there was no Spark Knight falling along with the rubble.
They appeared on the other side of the broken bridge, the side where the flying dragon once resided!
"Raise your guns!"
Thunder rumbled in the sky, and the violently surging lightning was tightly grasped in the hands of the Spark Knight. His perfect muscles were ready to go, and his golden spear pointed straight to the sky.
A violent wind swirled in the sky, and the dragon's roar was deafening. A huge flying dragon rose high into the sky, overlooking everyone from above. The sun was blocked by it, and the shadows it cast covered everyone but were dispersed by the lightning.
If this moment of confrontation were depicted, it would probably qualify as a legend even a hundred years later, at least it would be full of fantasy!
The dragon flame that seemed to be able to burn everything attacked everyone. The giant shield made of strangling dragon teeth served as the first line of defense, and the dragon scales and dragon flame wrestled under the sky.
When the scales could no longer withstand the force and shattered, countless lightning spears burst out from behind the fragments!
The indestructible lightning spear penetrated the dragon flames and rushed straight into the flying dragon's body. Even if the flying dragon wanted to lift up and dodge at this moment, it was unable to dodge it completely.
All that could be heard was the roar of thunder and the wailing of the flying dragon. The lightning spear successfully blew open its seemingly indestructible scales!
The exploded scales flew everywhere, and the moment they came into contact with the strangler dragon's fangs, they were instantly assimilated and became a supplement to this weapon.
Hunting dragons with thunder lances, this is like a reproduction of the visual content of the Sion dungeon. Even the simplified version makes these Starfire Knights who realize that they are imitating Gwyn extremely excited.
The lightning spear once again cut through the sky and shot towards the flying dragon. This time, the flying dragon finally showed its speed, circling in the air several times to avoid the lightning, and finally sprayed a fireball of concentrated flames towards everyone!
However, its eyes were not fixed on everyone but on the Strangler Fang. It had realized the threat of this thing and the limited number of scales. When the Strangler Fang turned into a shield again to block the fireball, it would rush forward and crush all the remaining scales with the weight of its body!
Just when it came up with such a practical tactic, it saw that the Spark Knights turned their backs to it.
No, it wasn’t about turning your back to me, it was about turning around and running away!
Yes, they are now in the place where the flying dragon was just entrenched, and behind them is a series of buildings and the Undead Parish connected to them!
There's even a bonfire!
The flying dragon suddenly became anxious and flapped its wings to dive towards the series of buildings. It could not let people sneak into the Undead Parish, otherwise it would not be able to do anything.
"boom!"
At this moment, there was a sound of something exploding, followed by a heavy pressure hitting the flying dragon's back, catching it off guard and falling onto the broken bridge.
It was a building. The spire of the building was blown off by something and now fell directly on it.
This is a trap!
When this idea just popped up in Feilong's mind, he heard excited shouts, and Spark Knights holding lightning spears jumped out like primitive men who had successfully hunted, and stabbed Feilong with their lightning spears!
The flying dragon roared angrily. He hadn't yet fallen to the point where he could be slaughtered at will. He could still continue to fight. He had to give these bastards a—
A cold, steely, fairy-like breath came from above. This breath had unusual lethality to the dragon clan, causing the flying dragon to involuntarily look towards its source.
All the special attack props against dragons brought by the Spark Knights were ready to go.
When it raised its head, all the energy hit it.
“Ouch!!!”
The Spark Knights who participated in this hunt obtained a huge amount of souls that were enough to upgrade to the next level.
Where the giant creature disappeared, white and purple spots of light were shining.
