Soul Of Negary

Chapter 230: Vol3 Ch30: Besieging battle (1)

Translator: La0o9 

〖 With my guidance, Birosius will eventually call for an Evil God’s descent on Lohr 〗

〖 The Sun Shadow church’s reason of existence is actually to be the sheepdog for their Righteous God〗

And the descent of an Evil God would always be accompanied with the loss of ‘wool’, which was unacceptable for the church. Otherworldly Evil Gods weren’t the same as the twisted elven Evil Gods, as they could immediately flee right after harvesting any amount of Source Energy they were able to.

The Sun Shadow church’s storage room, if there weren’t any surprises, should be located within the hill of the cathedral, the secret entrance of which should lie inside the cathedral at the top of the hill.

Naturally, there were also other secret passages there, since the inside of the hill of the cathedral contained numerous other areas of interest, including the management room for the Night Watcher’s Marks of Vow, the Holy Water brewing room, and the prison of some monsters that were tough to kill.

In summary, the cathedral on the outside was merely the place for people to gather for prayers, while the true venues of importance laid inside the hill itself; not to mention, they also had another secret mission that was related to the underground area.

With so many functions and facilities built on the inside of the hill, the sewage and ventilation system naturally became indispensable. And for things that couldn’t be conveniently transported from the front of the hill, they would be taken to the back of the hill, where there was a secret passage used for transport right next to the sewage system.

〖 On this path, there are a total of three guard stations, each with a large number of their own guards 〗

〖 If we go through and take each one down sequentially, there would definitely not be enough time, they would be able to stall long enough for the Sun Shadow church’s troops from other areas to come to their aid 〗

〖 For this reason, the members participating in this infiltration plan will be split into four groups, each group will be responsible for keeping the guards of one station busy while the others make their way into the deeper areas, with the final group consisting of crucial members who will break into the storage room 〗

〖 Those assigned to different groups will be rewarded with a different amounts of contribution points 〗Negary then asked the numerous people behind him: 〖 Now, are there any other questions? 〗

〖 The commotion on that side has grown quite considerable as well 〗

Negary briefly listened, the commotion at the other side of Lohr was audible even at this location, so he certainly wasn’t wasting Negary’s gift at all.

The thought patterns Negary had developed through his constant studies, as well as his great foundation of knowledge had all been copied and granted to Birosius, combined with Birosius’ loss of rationality made his destructiveness a bit greater compared to Negary.

Naturally, if Negary truly only wished to destroy and nothing else, he would be even more terrifying.

〖 Tonight is going to be one lively night 〗

Negary put away his distractions and entered the large passage carved into the hill for the sake of transportation, followed by a large group of people.

When Negary formed the Impure Hermit Order, the standard for any member was to be a talented individual in one or more ways, and these talented individuals would never be mentally weak. Or rather, you could say that all of them were people who wished to be in the limelight.

Brian originally failed to assassinate his father and was put into prison, Katherine was a mad enthusiast of Mysticism, and the same went for every other member of the Hermit Order, none of them were those who would truly adhere to law and order. Challenging the Sun Shadow church like this would not cause them to feel fearful, and would instead rouse nothing but excitement in their hearts.

Traversing through the transportation passage, Negary soon saw a few dead knights’ corpses. This path was linked to the sewage system, so the church would arrange for regular patrols of this place, in case any fleas tried to sneak in through the sewers.

But now, all of them were dead, each with a red mark of blood dripping down their helmet and chest plate, this was the work of the Shade Attendants.

〖 It has been a long time since I’ve used this skill 〗

Negary waved his hand, sending black needles of germs from the tip of his fingers into the wounds on these fallen knights’ bodies.

The black needles soon became active, followed by the sound of the knights’ armor rattling as they stood back up.

The germs turned into a network inside their bodies, each branch taking control of one part of their muscle. This was the corpse manipulation technique Negary had created a long time ago.

And now, he used it to make these knight corpses walk ahead of them.

The passage was relatively wide, and since this was a path made for transport, it wasn’t particularly steep either.

The group of knights walked forward in formation, one of them even had a man restrained as they soon arrived at the first gate.

A large metal door sealed off the way forward here. The gate was around 10 meters tall, with two walls on both sides that continued on through the gate. Each wall was stationed with a row of burly strong knights, who would swoop down to eliminate any intruders as soon as they approached.

〖 There are around 2 squads stationed here, which include 20 Iron knights and 5 Glory Knights, but their main responsibility is to sound the alarm 〗

〖 Once they’ve sounded the alarm, the guards behind them would immediately turn on the mechanisms to turn this transportation passage into a death trap 〗

Negary recalled the information they had gathered.

“Did a rat come crawling in?” in front of the metal door, some of the guarding knights asked as he saw a knight escorting a detained person here.

〖 That’s right…〗 Negary’s voice resounded, causing the guards’ pupils to constrict. This voice was too soothing, each syllable sounded like a feast to the ear that caused their entire body to feel ecstatic.

At the very next second, a razor-sharp bone blade had already pierced his throat, Negary’s figure then dashed through the metal gate without pause. As the knights on both sides of the wall noticed something amiss, they immediately jumped down, only to be pinned to the wall by large arrows that came flying from the other side.

Just a bit further away, two men were carrying a giant bow on their backs as another man stood behind them, biting on a giant arrow in his mouth as he pulled the string of the bow with both hands.

Negary ignored the matters happening behind him and swung the bone blades on his arms. The sound of shattering metal could then be heard, followed by the sound of spurting blood.

One of the knights had already reached the alarm, only one step away from pulling it downwards, but the bloody hole in his head had prevented this step.

〖 Secure the alarm device 〗

With Negary’s order, several shadows emerged from dark corners of the building, pouring their frigid energy out to corrode the knights’ bodies.

Leading the others, Negary continued heading forward without minding the approaching knights. What they needed most right now was speed, and only thing the first gate had was a large number of personnel, the other two gates would be a lot more crucial to break through.

Brian was commanding several people to stop these knights. He understood his own strength, even if he had undergone certain augmentations from the Hermit Order, learnt a few magic spells, bought a few magical tools, he was still a greenhorn when it came to practical combat.

In fact, even though he volunteered to participate in this besieging battle, he was only responsible for the easiest first gate.

“Stall them, then prepare to reinforce our allies” going through the plan once more in his head, Brian smirked: “Show it to me, the power held by the Sun Shadow Church”
