Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 1167 - 758: Dragon Hunting!

The White Church, something that Hevi, as a self-proclaimed know-it-all of the Sain Dungeon, naturally has heard of.

It's said that some have accidentally obtained access to a series of miracles related to the White Church during the Endless Reincarnation. Although they didn't ultimately learn them, it did bring out quite a bit of intelligence.

For instance, the White Church seems to be a religion with considerable influence in Lordran, worshiping a main god named Lloyd. However, this main God has never appeared in any images within the Sain Dungeon, making it quite mysterious.

Additionally, the Church always seems to be hunting the Undead, yet people don't know why they're hunted. Based on Hevi'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, which causes the birth of the Undead, is regarded as a curse, and religions just love hunting things that look like heretics, don't they?

Also, it seems the White Church has its own oath. Every Oath Taker likes to help each other, but when it comes to outsiders, they don't appear to be as enthusiastic. Furthermore, no one knows what benefits the White Church oath brings.

There's only this much information about the White Church, which seems extremely rare from an outsider's perspective.

But compared to many elements in the Sain Dungeon that are only briefly mentioned in fragmented narratives, the information on the White Church seems to be among the more abundant.

Although the extra content isn't of much use, not understanding parts still remain unclear.

In Hevi's opinion,

History is constantly filled with the emergence of new religions and the direct burial of old religions under the wheel of history like a polar dust storm, so the White Church seems to represent those churches that failed to be successfully passed down.

So it's not worth paying attention to since it's not a church related to Gwyn; he couldn't be bothered to explore more about the White Church.

Rather interested in what benefits this fat man who believes in the White Church can bring them.

Petrus seems like someone who doesn't look trustworthy, but when it comes to matters, he is quite reliable. He directly told everyone the approximate location of the Painted World, at the junction between the Undead Town Outside the City and the Undead Parish, but the exact location still requires people to find on their own.

This location precisely aligns with Hevi and his group's itinerary. Although they haven't seen what the Undead Parish looks like, it seems they'll have to deal with the Red Flying Dragon to get there, so it's conveniently on the way.

Speaking of which, Hevi also wondered if drafting the White Church oath would bring some benefits from Petrus, as that's usually how these stories go.

But unfortunately, no Starfire Knight wanted to change their oath, not only because they felt nothing for the White Church but also because the Sun Warrior oath boosts skills like the Thunder Spear that everyone is good at right now.

If greed for rewards that might not exist led to changing the oath resulting in weakened strength and eventually death on the battlefield, then it truly would be a loss-making deal.

"It's surprising the Sain Dungeon didn't send us on a wild goose chase this time; it's rather remarkable."

"Let's go, let's go, it's time to set off officially. I can't wait to bathe in Dragon Blood."

"Watch out for parasites."

Hevi joked with his teammates, "I mainly want to see if there's any Painted World related to the Sun Warriors. As for the White Church, whatever happens with that unfamiliar thing."

Initially, Petrus was quietly watching them leave, but Hevi's remark made him suddenly argue seriously:

"The White Church is the most powerful church, with influence all over Lordran. What on earth are you all—"

"By the way, what's for dinner tonight?"

"Think first about whether we can get back to the camp tonight before worrying about dinner. All you think about is eating, and it's only morning!"

"..."

However, Petrus's passionate speech defending his faith didn't seem to capture the Starfire Knights' attention.

If Sain Dungeon were to implement a favorability system for the residual shadow, this guy's favorability towards Hevi and his group would probably plummet to freezing point.

It's just unfortunate that the Sain Dungeon doesn't implement such a system; so, once Hevi and his group leave the range of the Fire Transmission Ceremony, not just Petrus but also the Discouragement Brother sitting beside him pause all actions, staying still as if turned into statues.

As the adventurers walked further, the two figures directly transformed into a ray of light and vanished, suggesting they'll reappear when people return here again.

This is energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

Before long, Hevi and the group ventured deep into the Undead Town Outside the City, braving the complex terrain and the Monsters that could appear at any time.

More accurately, they're mainly engaging in bravery, as adventurers can never find all the places where Monsters appear, there will always be those hiding in blind spots that jump out to give you a scare.

Moreover, the Sain Dungeon seems aware that these Monsters' appearances will definitely frighten people, so these sneaky Monsters always let out howling sounds, leaving people momentarily feeling like they're in Yarn.

It must be deliberate. Sain Dungeon's monster design is definitely intentional!
