Chapter 3319 Church Mission
"Of course, my believers."
"God of Shadows, which mission should I accept?"
Fang Heng glanced at the rows of task descriptions on the bulletin board and asked, "Which task has the highest overall monetary reward?"
"It's hard to say. The missions issued by the Underworld are generally divided into three types. One type is gathering, where we will enter the Underworld area to gather some medicinal herbs and minerals unique to the Underworld."
"The second type is the mission to enter the danger zone and repair the seal."
Adam explained, "Besides the Temple of the Underworld, this part mainly targets the seal that hangs high in the sky above the Underworld. Under the influence of the Underworld's aura, the Underworld seal will continuously develop breaches. Most of these breaches cannot affect the seal itself, but if left unattended, the breaches will grow larger and larger over time, until they gradually affect the seal as a whole."
"The third type is combat-related. One type is to reduce the concentration of Netherworld creatures in an area, which simply means clearing out Netherworld creatures in a fixed area. The other type is more difficult and requires clearing out high-level Netherworld creatures of a specific level."
“Sometimes powerful creatures emerge from the underworld. If they are allowed to linger there, their strength will gradually increase, thus affecting the seal. The temple will periodically issue extermination missions after gathering intelligence.”
"The remaining tasks are more varied, including area exploration, reconnaissance, finding missing persons, collecting scents, and so on..."
Fang Heng looked up in thought.
I never imagined that the church would manage the underworld in such a loose manner.
As for the tasks, the church continues its consistent model of rewarding hard work.
The higher the difficulty of the task, the richer the reward.
After a quick glance at the task panel, he noticed that the resource gathering tasks all featured extremely high-level items, many of which he had never even seen before.
Too troublesome, collecting resources takes too long, so we won't consider it for now.
The remaining tasks are combat-related or sealing/repairing seals.
You can try.
Fang Heng quickly selected a task from the list that seemed to offer decent points rewards and said, "The sixty-ninth task."
Upon hearing this, Adam subconsciously looked up at the corresponding task bar on the panel.
what! ?
Adam's heart skipped a beat when he saw the mission description. He lowered his head and whispered, "Mission number sixty-nine is a high-difficulty team mission."
Zane said, "So what? Believer, it seems you have some doubts; your faith is not devout enough."
Adam immediately snapped to attention and said, "No, no, Your Excellency God of Shadows, you may not know much about the Underworld. This mission is located in a C-rank danger zone, where you will encounter a large number of undead creatures."
"so what?"
“Repairing the seals of the underworld is different. The repair process will release power fluctuations, which will arouse the hostility of undead creatures. Therefore, completing these tasks requires teamwork.”
Adam wanted to say that this task was not intended for them, the apprentice oracles.
Such missions typically require a second-tier Oracle to lead the team, forming a squad of 6-8 Oracles to complete the task.
And he?
A mere apprentice oracle?
joke!
What's the difference between that and sending someone to their death?
"What are you afraid of, believer? You have the protection of the God of Shadows. Go quickly."
Adam immediately looked distressed.
Can it really work?
He has two War Soul Heroes under his command, and even if you add the four from the God of Shadows, he only has six second-tier War Soul Heroes in total.
There's no way I can beat him!
Indeed, the God of Shadows is terrifying in this world, but that's in the Underworld!
What if the power of the God of Shadows cannot reach the Underworld?
Wouldn't he be finished then?
Zane sensed the doubt in Adam's heart, gave a light snort, and said in a deep voice, "Believer, what are you doubting? Go now!"
"Yes!"
With things having come to this, Adam had no choice but to bite the bullet, go to the counter to accept the mission, and receive the mission teleportation card from the clerk.
"God of Shadows, let's head to the Underworld Teleportation Zone now."
Adam gradually sorted out his thoughts halfway down to the basement.
If all else fails, we can just go to the underworld and take a look.
If the power of the God of Shadows cannot enter the Underworld by then, then quickly abandon the mission and leave.
Losing church mission completion rate and personal points is something I can grit my teeth and accept, but losing my life there would be a huge loss.
While pondering, Adam entered the underground teleportation area.
There are teleportation magic circles with corresponding numbers on the floor of the hall.
Adam walked nervously into a large descent magic circle and nodded slightly to the priest beside him, "Priest, I am ready."
"only you?"
The priest glanced at Adam with some surprise.
Adam nodded with a strange expression and great difficulty, summoning his six second-tier battle spirits.
The priest frowned even more as he watched Adam's actions.
For team tasks, he went alone?
"Do not force."
Seeing that Adam did not answer, the priest assumed he had made a fool of himself and said, "If you are ready, let us begin."
As they spoke, the magic circle beneath Adam's feet emitted a dark golden light, gradually enveloping Adam completely until he vanished from the hall.
……
Underworld.
Adam and six heroic spirits entered the underworld through the descent passage, and at the same time, their divine armor appeared.
Large swathes of evil spirit bones are gathering around.
Sensing the divine aura emanating from Adam's sacred armor, the evil spirit skeletons all gave way.
Adam quickly raised his hand, manipulating the battle spirits to form a protective circle around him, and bowed his head, silently praying, "God of Shadows, are you there?"
“Of course,” Zane said with a touch of authority, “the power of the Shadow God is everywhere.”
Adam's heart skipped a beat, and he was greatly alarmed.
Is it really there?
From childhood to adulthood, whether it's recorded in textbooks or passed down by word of mouth, the underworld is described as one of the most terrifying places, a place even the power of gods can hardly match.
But how could this so-called power of the God of Shadows so easily penetrate into the Underworld?
Could it be that the power of the God of Shadows is even greater than the power of a god?!
“I’m sorry, God of Shadows, I am your faithful follower and I should not have doubted your power.”
Adam quickly admitted his mistake.
"Hmph, I'll let you off this time."
Adam breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and focused his gaze on the sky not far away. "Shadow God, that should be the area of the damaged seal described in the mission. I need to repair it."
"Go ahead," Fang Heng said calmly. "Just go, and leave the rest to me."
Adam immediately headed towards the direction where the aura of death was highly concentrated in the distance.
Upon entering the sealed area, Fang Heng looked up and saw that a large section of the connecting sealing chains in the sky had been damaged by the long-term melting and corrosion of the power of death aura, with the damaged area being three layers thick.
Even so, the sealing chain's effect was not affected.
Fang Heng roughly sensed that there were at least three hundred more layers of sealing chains behind it.
With such minor damage, even if the damage is delayed for another ten or twenty years, the area affected by corrosion will be very limited and will not pose a fundamental threat. (End of Chapter)
