Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?

Chapter 449: Chapter 314: Inside the Deep Church_2

Fingerley sat on the rows of wooden benches, staring at the pulpit, imagining himself as a believer listening to a sermon by church staff, and the immersion hit him immediately.

But before he could think further, he saw a few animated corpses crawling out from under the pulpit.

Wait a minute, those don’t seem like animated corpses. They were either tall and thin or short and fat, all wearing robes with quite intricate embroidery, clearly indicating their unusual status. They held weapons with very peculiar looks, like short daggers, yet with a ceremonial delicacy. These guys were definitely not just animated corpses.

Their name is [Deep Bishop]

The word ’bishop’ sounds quite grand, but in the game, they’re as common as stray dogs in the Deep Church. Gong Qiying couldn’t understand why the game was set up this way, but he simply treated them as small fries.

Unlike in the game where they’d only throw fireballs and swing weapons randomly, they brought out their real skills in the otherworld.

The bishops raised their mysterious weapons high, throwing fireballs of varying sizes at people. These things didn’t seem all that scary, as their shooting speed wasn’t fast, allowing easy dodging, and the Bone Stick Team could withstand them.

Fingerley raised his hand to signal everyone to stay calm, wanting to see what tricks these monsters would use.

So the bishops put on a display for him.

[Fireball], [Jet Flame], [Sweeping Flames], [Ignite Intense Fire]... they could use both basic and advanced versions of flame sorcery, and among them were sorceries that even gave Fingerley a sense of crisis.

But since the bishops were incredibly slow, not much faster than animated corpses, their threat level was significantly reduced.

Apart from these flame sorceries, the bishops could also cast magic [Deep Soul], which successfully made Fingerley stand up to defend, as this thing, a pitch-black soul sediment, would track the enemy and was quite fast, at least faster than the bishops.

"Hiss, it hurts a bit when it hits the body."

Realizing the effectiveness of the Deep Soul, the bishops all wanted to cast this spell in unison, but before they could succeed, they were chopped up into pieces by the others.

How should I put it, if these bishops had better skills and resembled a normal humanoid monster, each one could cause at least as much trouble as a Church Knight. Unfortunately, they were as basic as animated corpses, so they could only sit at the same table with Maggot Men.

"The magic power is not bad, but still not enough." Fingerley lamented, "If there were more of them, gathering together might actually pose a real threat."

"If I could design this dungeon, I’d definitely set up a grand scene, like having them form a choir of over a hundred people, that’s exciting. Letting them come out one by one is too dull."

"Shut that crow mouth of yours." Matilda was tempted to shove her fist into his mouth, as she always got a bad feeling whenever Fingerley spoke, like the high-platform Gatling just now.

But, um, is it possible that Sain Dungeon could really create a scene with over a hundred bishops appearing simultaneously?

As she thought about it, she lost a little confidence herself, recognizing Sain’s strength.

Leaving this small room was an upward staircase, and just halfway up, a bishop was standing at a vantage point throwing fireballs at them. If they ran towards him, a Church Knight hiding in the corner would sneak attack, with quite an insidious positioning, and Tusi’s head was almost knocked into his body.

It’s not a big iron ball rolling down from above, poor review.

"I always feel like we’re going in circles on a winding path. Is this really inside the church?"

The moment the Bone Stick Team finished speaking, Fingerley pushed open the large door in front of him, and the view opened wide.

No more cramped corridors and stairs, no more oppressive prayer rooms, what lay before them...

Was the more oppressive full internal view of the Deep Church!

They were now standing on a second-floor platform, overlooking the entire inside of the Deep Church, and gaining a new understanding of the concept of "big."

In the far distance, there was a well-lit platform where many bishops and knights gathered, exuding an extraordinary aura, certainly an important place.

It seemed like walking in a straight line would get them there, but obstacles were inevitable.

From the second-floor platform, there was no way across due to the lack of a path, so the adventurers could only choose to go left, as the right side was collapsed. This meant they had to find a way to the lower level and then run to the platform over there, but two huge gates blocked the necessary path on the ground floor.

The annoying part was, the ground was covered in a sticky, greenish substance, looking a hundred times more disgusting than the swamps of Fran Fort!

And near the edge of the swamp close to the platform, a giant was curled up there, unsure if it was dead or alive, but given Sain’s usual antics, it was sure to stand up.

The most ridiculous thing was, the thickest part of the unknown substance, right near the giant’s foot, had the most light points scattered around, the designer’s intention was clear as day!

This is clearly a strategy to lure people over!

The gates connect both sides of the second floor and can be used as bridges for the adventurers to explore more conveniently.

"Why don’t we use the Flying Skill to fly straight across to the platform over there?"

Faced with the magician’s proposal, Fingerley pondered seriously.

According to Sain’s usual habits, the platform on the opposite might be the site for a boss fight, and those two gates had clear activity marks, so there should be mechanisms to lower them.

So, the normal exploration strategy should be to use the gates as bridges, searching on both sides for mechanisms to lower the gates?

But they had this cheat-like method, the Flying Skill, or rather, most adventurers when seeing this map design would think of the Flying Skill first.

But if they could think of it, couldn’t Sain? By then, there would definitely be counters against the Flying Skill, just like at the Magic Academy.

Should we explore normally, but I really want to know immediately what’s on that platform, whether it’s a boss or not.

"Everyone, let’s vote."

Fingerley turned around and shared his thoughts with everyone, saying, "Raise your left hand if you want to explore slowly, raise your hand for flying if you—"

Before he finished speaking, the ground suddenly shook, and Tusi suddenly widened his eyes, pointing behind Fingerley, stammering, "Gi, giant..."

A massive shadow was cast from behind, Fingerley slowly turned around.

A giant was standing there, its enormous body bringing endless pressure, it had actually been curled up below, making everyone unaware!

"This is my first time seeing a living giant..."

On this day, people once again recalled the fear of being dominated by a giant.
