Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 1239 - 795: Speedrunning Sick Village

"Sick Village, huh? This environment isn't all that bad, brother. Look, I'm just fine."

"Lady Anleisi, your words are somewhat..."

The Holy Light Knight who once followed Kaius into the Sick Village hesitated and stopped speaking.

"What's wrong?"

Anleisi, clad in a super-thick protective suit resembling a tin can, with air passing through dozens of layers of magic purification, tilted her head.

"...Nothing."

The Holy Light Knight dressed in a regular protective suit ultimately chose to remain silent.

It's not that the army couldn't provide these elite workers with a higher-grade protective suit; the Holy Light Church was not short on funds. The main reason was that once everyone wore Anleisi's protective suit, they could barely move.

Only a Hero with extraordinary strength and adept magic manipulation could operate in that suit, akin to an Astarte.

By the way, Kaius, to show solidarity with everyone in times of difficulty, only wore a regular protective suit. With some exertion, he estimated it could be shredded by Sword Qi.

Since the protective suits were issued by the Holy Light Church, their color was naturally the pure white of Holy Light, forbidding owners from adding other symbols.

This group of white-clad individuals entered the Sick Village. At this point, the pristine white protective suits had already been defiled, inevitably smeared with dirt.

The team consisted of two Heroes with high combat specifications, two Dungeon Exploration Masters, and Holy Light Knights alongside healing-specialized Priests.

At a glance, this was a rather standard exploration team, and the Holy Light Knights in the team had been trained by the Exploration Masters, so they were no longer ignorant of Sain.

You really can't underestimate anyone's learning ability. Although the Holy Light Church can't match the Skyrim Strategy Group in the short term, they're still competitive against regular adventurers. Plus, they have sheer numbers, using lives to quickly close the exploration gap with the rebel army.

Under Megan's guidance, the Holy Light Church was fighting on three fronts within the Sain Dungeon: one at the Undead Town and Undead Parish, another at the Little Londo Ruins, and the third led by Heroes at the Sick Village.

Originally, each of the latter two fronts should have been allocated a Hero, but Kaius couldn't rest easy with the recovering Anleisi, so he joined her. The presence of two Heroes boosted the Holy Light Knights' morale, making them feel invincible.

Besides targeting the Sain Dungeon, the ground forces were busy further expanding Hepa Town, turning it into a fortress-level stronghold. Not only could it closely monitor the rebel army's movements, but it also provided supplies to passing friendly units. While not an ideal military position, it holds construction value.

The ground forces are looking for a suitable opportunity to attack and settle accounts with the rebel army, and action is expected soon. The Magic Sky Curtain is ready to expand at any time.

As for the whereabouts of Hevi's rebel army, they're still tracking it. Their ability to erase traces is remarkably effective, leaving no trail for enemies to follow.

Currently, Kaius and Anleisi have come to the Sain Dungeon not for ordinary map exploration.

But to confront the final boss in this region—the mighty blaze Kaius once sensed.

"Time is of the essence; let's take action right away!"

Anleisi uttered her spirited voice and leapt toward the cliff beside her, smashing down into the middle tier of the Sick Village. The wooden structure of the village shook violently with the descent of the iron can, barely holding together.

Holy Light Knights followed by jumping one by one, with Anleisi generously catching each of them below, allowing the whole team to safely parachute into the middle tier, bypassing the upper tier exploration entirely.

Kaius acted last, his gaze continually scanning the darkness. Upon noticing a shadow creeping, he swiftly slashed with his sword, accompanied by the agonizing cries of the "Raincoat Insect Warrior" Blowguns in his ear.

His sword swung, causing the sword light to gleam, rendering enemies invisible within his strong perception. Monsters hidden in shadows were slain one after another until no more remained within his sensing range. Only then did Kaius leap down, landing firmly.

The Sain Dungeon wouldn't mind this degree of "skipping class." If adventurers did this, they might encounter a newly refreshed elite, but in Scameroon, Sain Dungeon seemed suddenly generous, only adding a few ordinary monsters, which don't respawn after being slain.

"I feel so great," a Holy Light Knight expressed heartfelt admiration, "The painful paths we previously walked can now be skipped in a flash."

Another knight responded with a chuckle, "I read the materials left by the rebel army; they're always trying to do the same as us but can't find the technique. We're still more capable."

"Not just that, rumor has it that if they attempt to jump, it might provoke Sain Dungeon. We haven't faced such an encounter, have we? Just a slight increase in monsters, that's all, hahaha."

The Holy Light Knights laughed with satisfaction.

It is said that without comparison, there is no superiority. Although the materials left by the rebel army are mixed with truth and falsehood, under these circumstances, the Holy Light Knights prefer to believe that their exploration progress is far ahead! Far ahead!
