Chapter 209
During the day, the entire city was exceptionally quiet. Negri was constantly reorganizing Green's memories, hoping to glean more information from them.
The entire world was divided into different regions, for example, the current town of Lohr. It was said that a very long time ago, there was still a country, but the name of the country had already been lost.
The city's security and development were completely self-governed, but the divine authority had completely overridden the regions. In fact, even the Holy Scriptures and laws clearly stated that humans were the property of the Gods.
The only difference was which of the Seven Righteous Gods you were the property of.
The Righteous Gods were usually quite friendly towards non-believers. Although the scriptures stated that non-believers would be transferred into the bodies of low-level living beings after death, they only treated non-believers coldly and didn't force them to worship them.
However, the Righteous Gods dealt a heavy blow to the cultists.
Aside from a small number of people who possessed Holy Souls, the souls of others were born with sin. The awakening of a Wicked Soul would turn them into monsters, and anyone who awakened would be labeled as a sinner.
However, there were always those who obtained evil objects and were bewitched by them. For the sake of power, wealth, or lifespan, those people awakened their Wicked Souls.
The more they awakened, the more they deviated from humanity.
That was what Reid had taught Green. Thinking about this, Negri felt a bit strange.
The awakening of a Wicked Soul and a Holy Soul are both undoubtedly the release of [Origin], but why would the awakening of a Wicked Soul deviate from humanity and turn into a monster? Could it be [Origin Assimilation]? That doesn't sound like it "Negri kept guessing:" Could it be that the release of [Origin] is abnormal? "
Every world had different methods of releasing their [Origin]. The most common method was the witches' stimulation method, which used magical substances to stimulate their [Origin], but there were also natural environmental factors.
For example, during the first and second cycle of the Disaster world, the world was filled with psychic factors, as long as one had enough talent, they would be able to absorb these factors and awaken their abilities.
"The seven Righteous Gods …" Negri's eyes flickered. From what he knew so far, he didn't know what level the seven Righteous Gods were at, but it felt like they were beyond this world.
"I need to learn more about them" However, Negri was quite confident in his ability against the Red Sun Knight. His physique was quite powerful, no less than Negri's viral body.
According to Rhett, after becoming the most basic Iron Knight of the Church, he would receive the baptism of Holy Water every once in a while. When the connection between the Divine Arts and his body was completed, he would receive the Blessing of Glory from the bishop and become a Glory Knight.
Meanwhile, only after a Glory Knight completes the connection between his [Blessing of Glory] and his Divine Art Constitution and receives the Red Sun Brand would they be able to become a Red Sun Knight.
A powerful constitution, combined with Divine Arts and blessings, their raw power doesn't lose out to those at the second stage of release. Furthermore, while they don't have those strange abilities, they are extremely well-rounded.
"It was said that the Sun Shadow church's headquarters also had Divine Guardsmen, who would receive the Eternal Heat's Blessing of Heat and walk closer to the path of Godhood, granting them power far surpassing that of Red Sun Knights. In other words, they could be considered as thrice-liberators"
Negri turned his gaze to Reid's room. If that was the case, the seven Righteous Gods were at least on the same level as the New God and Archaeosaurus. "The waters of this world are very deep."
In the evening, Reid put on his armor and held his helmet in his arms. After giving Negri some instructions, he went out.
The Sun Shadow church had discovered traces of Evil God cultists or sinners, so he needed to complete the cleanup mission tonight.
However, he didn't notice that on the sun wreath on his helmet, a single golden petal was moving slightly.
After a while, Negri silently left the room while sensing the location of the germs.
Although the Red Sun Knights had been categorized by Negri as people at the second stage of release, and were more well-rounded than those who had awakened twice, being well-rounded also meant being mediocre.
Especially when it came to the soul, those who awakened evil souls were considered sinners. The Red Sun Knights could use [Faith] to defend against soul attacks, but their senses weren't particularly strong, which was why they needed armor to protect themselves.
Negri followed Reid from afar. His current appearance had changed, a purple-black cloth had wrapped around his face and hair, while his body had also returned to its original form. He was wearing a simple set of clothes, but his robust body exuded a different sense of beauty.
Two bone blades protruded from his arms, glowing as his figure disappeared into the light. Because he was only using the properties of germs and physics, Negri's [Light Invisibility] didn't give off any energy fluctuations.
Sensing the germs on Reid's helmet, Negri's figure moved through the streets and alleys of Lohr. The terrain of Lohr was truly complicated, with all sorts of buildings of different heights and styles, sometimes even having the same roofs.
If an outsider came here, they would definitely get lost without a doubt.
Negri was constantly recording the information of the surrounding buildings and drawing a map in his mind. In battle, borrowing the help of the environment could often provide unexpected benefits, so it was necessary to familiarize himself with the terrain and plan a route of escape or pursuit.
Otherwise, if he was half-crippled by Aura's headshot, he wouldn't even be able to absorb the poisoned blood.
"It's down there" Negri landed on top of a building, in front of him was a river that surrounded the city. Rather than calling it a river, it would be more accurate to call it a garbage truck.
Because it was connected to the underground sewers, the entire river was black and gave off a foul stench. There were also some indescribable things floating on the surface, including a large number of flies, maggots, weeds, and even unknown creatures. No normal person in Lohr would come down here.
Due to the amount of debris piled up here, the water level wasn't actually that high, only reaching knee-height, while the bottom was filled with mud formed from unknown substances.
Negri observed the situation below. This was his home turf, there were countless germs here, and the power of Impurity he learned from Shennai could also be used as an experimental base here.
"Fighting in the sewers?" Without hesitation, Negri leapt down, stepped on the mud, and followed his senses to find the entrance to the sewers. As he got closer, the light gradually dimmed, and Negri who was using the light to conceal himself also revealed his body. In the dark, it was actually better for him to stay hidden in the light.
The sewers were surprisingly large, with many forks in the road, as well as the occasional movement of strange creatures. If Negri didn't have the ability to sense germs, he might have really lost them.
As Negri followed, the originally damp and dirty state of the sewers also changed. He turned into an abandoned branch of the sewers, the ground was filled with jet-black mud. There were no less than a hundred of these abandoned branches of the sewers in Lohr, covering the entire underground of Lohr in a complicated manner. Choosing this place as a base of operations was practically the best choice for the cultists.
Just as Negri was moving, Negri noticed traces of activity from at least seven groups of people.
