Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 730 The Beginning of the Journey

"We're not continuing to fight the Black Knight to conserve our strength. Obviously, once we get our weapons, there's no need to risk fighting him again. Our real enemy is the Undead Asylum Demon, since only its appearance will cause the Fog Gate to rise."

As they walked, Hervé kept explaining his reasons for not continuing to entangle with the Black Knight.

To this, Todd could only nod repeatedly to show that he was listening, though he knew that it was just the other person being a chatterbox again.

I'm not trying to explain myself, am I?
The Black Knight didn't actually catch up, perhaps because during the time that Dragon Fang had restrained him, everyone had already run far away, and he judged that there was no need to continue chasing.

"Has the Sien Dungeon become merciful? I clearly remember the Black Knight chasing me all the way, and finally stabbing me to death when I was almost at the Crystal Elder's battle arena."

"Maybe it's because the black knight who's pursuing you is petty."

"There should only be one Black Knight, right? He won't come out again, will he?"

"There won't be another guy this strong, don't worry."

The Starfire Knights were still talking about the dungeon. Having just escaped death, Hervé didn't stop them from chatting.

After all, once they got their weapons back, the stronger zombie soldiers and the more powerful zombie knights no longer posed a significant threat.

The enhancement effect brought by the strangling dragon tooth seems to be time-limited. Now, their muscular form has been completely eliminated, and they have returned to their original appearance.

Todd finally understood why the Starfire Knights' clothes were so loose, except for Hervi's; they were always in danger of bursting out of their clothes because of their muscles.

People were talking about the dungeon, but he kept glancing at Hervé.

It's impossible to tell what the [Strangling Dragon Fang] usually looks like, or where it's kept.

Weapons are the strongest weapons besides divine artifacts. He had heard adults say this since he was a child, but this was the first time he had seen such a thing in reality, and he felt quite shocked.

The weapon is very powerful, and to wield it naturally requires considerable strength, meaning that Hervé's combat power is at least significantly stronger than that of an ordinary person.

In that case, if I ask them to take me away from Dorian...
"What's wrong?" Hervé noticed his gaze and turned around to ask.

"No, it's nothing." Todd turned his head away.

If I wanted to make such a request, I'd have to wait until I'm more familiar with the other person; it's a bit too early for our current relationship.

Besides, if he could return to the Firelink Shrine, he wouldn't owe this person a favor anymore, and he could just run away on his own.

Todd temporarily suppressed his idea of ​​running away.

The Northern Undead Asylum appears to be a real prison, and even worse than ordinary prisons.

The guards here have not only turned into zombies like the prisoners, but there are also hidden traps on the road, some of which are in very insidious locations and are impossible to guard against.

It's only because the people of the Spark Church can laugh that they can laugh. They even laugh when they see their companions fall into a trap, and they are smug about guessing the location of a trap.

This isn't a church at all; it's just a group of people who hang out under the guise of worshipping Gwyn.

Following this group, Todd felt himself getting caught up in the fun, even though he used to hate this kind of cheerful atmosphere.

He forced a smile to fit in, but as he smiled, he lost track of whether he was even faking it anymore.

[A trap lies ahead]

"Another piece of advice has been given. That knight is truly a good person!"

The Starfire Knight threw a pebble forward, and a large number of sharp spikes immediately sprang up from the ground. If someone walked on it without any precautions, they would be turned into skewers.

"Here we go again."

Todd will smile when he sees the advice, but this time it won't be a forced smile.

This advice was left behind by the knight who had saved them twice earlier.

Why are we so sure? Because when they trigger the remonstrance, the phantom of the knight will appear, recording the actions the knight took when writing the remonstrance.

That nameless Astrakian high-ranking knight is a truly kind person. Both Hervey and Todd now believe so.

They had already received several pieces of advice along the way, some pointing out directions, some warning of traps, and others showing the knights fretting about which way to go, appearing quite lively.

Even if they had never met, people had already formed an image in their minds of a helpful and upright knight.

If we can meet, I must thank you properly.

Todd thought that even though he was used to walking in the gray area, he would feel good about people who were full of positive energy.

If the person helping you is a shadow clone, you will definitely do your best to help them with anything they ask you to do, and of course, you should also give them a reward.

The knight's message saved people from several traps. Although the number was small, seeing the message in such a depressing and gloomy environment was very encouraging.

Herve and her companions demonstrated their expertise in dungeon exploration during their exploration of the Northern Undead Asylum.

Or perhaps it should be described as being good at deduction?

"Be careful, that corner over there will block our view. I suspect there are monsters hiding there."

"It's a fork in the road. Let's all go this way. Even if there are monsters, we can take care of them together."

“There’s a stray dog ​​in front of us with its back to us. Be prepared for at least ten stray dogs to jump out from the side.”

Although their predictions don't always come true, the result is that so far, none of them have suffered any casualties.

That is the greatest success.

“Hevy, now that the Saine Dungeon has appeared here, we can’t just stand by and do nothing. Let’s hurry up and get out of here and report back.”

"Yes, go back and report as soon as possible. Seize the portal before the people from the Church of Holy Light arrive. We can't let Saine slip through our fingers."

"This underground city contains so much information; obtaining it would practically guarantee victory."

"I haven't experienced the feeling of leveling up over a campfire in ages. Hurry up and call the rest of the team. I can't wait to get stronger."

Judging from what they said, a major battle is about to break out in Hypa Town, and the entire town may be razed to the ground.

Todd was thinking that this had nothing to do with him, since he would have already run away by then, but then he remembered the townspeople who had survived a little longer thanks to his charity.

"Why am I thinking about these things?"

He shook his head, as if trying to change the subject, and said, "Why does it feel like it's been a long time since I've seen a message from the Knight?"

"Is that so? Could it be that we took different routes?"

As he was saying this, Hervé stepped onto an upward staircase, but a rumbling sound came from above, and when he looked up, a huge iron ball was rushing down from above!

As Hervé jumped down, he pushed everyone aside. With a loud crash, the iron ball smashed down the room directly opposite the stairs!
"There's actually another room here?"

People then discovered that the walls were actually hollow.

"Could there be some hidden treasure?"

Todd eagerly leaned inside.

Then, my body suddenly froze.

"what happened?"

Hervé sensed something was wrong and leaned closer, peering into the depths of the room.

There, he saw the knight on the verge of death.
