Chapter 149 I Am The Great Principle, Will You Arrange A Script For Me?
Is this title some kind of hint?
Save the sacred.
Does Saintess count as sacred?
Of course!
Who is saving the sacred?
The fallen!
Who is currently carrying out the mission?
It's him, Chen Yu!
So, this fallen one...
Chen Yu immediately constructs a rough framework for the story in his mind.
Saintess is captured in the Demon Town and is about to become a sacrifice.
A holy person arrives and discovers Saintess, but because their power is too weak, they cannot fight against the fallen in the entire town.
In order to save Saintess, they are willing to become fallen themselves and descend into the Abyss, all for the sake of their belief.
Of course, even if they manage to rescue Saintess, their own fate will certainly not be good.
There is a high probability that they will become cannon fodder while escaping.
Even if they return to the influence of the Holy Hall, it will be very miserable.
The fallen, are still the fallen.
No matter how firm their belief is in their heart, no matter how much they long for the light.
The immaculate sanctity will not allow the existence of the fallen's filthy body.
Therefore, the perfect ending of the script should be:
The "fallen" successfully rescues Saintess and escorts her back to the sacred forces.
Then, because they cannot tolerate their own fallen state, they leave in sorrow or end their own life.
They may even be executed by the Holy Hall they believe in.
Doesn't this perfectly fit the mission title "The Tragic Song of Saving the Fallen of the Sacred"?
"Fit my ass!"
"Sorry, as the Unsurpassable Great Principle, I don't accept scripts arranged by others!"
"Tragedy? It doesn't exist!"
Those who have played games know that most players don't pay attention to the plot, they only strive to obtain more rewards.
Even the creator god would have to drop gold coins when their health bar is exposed!
The basic requirement of the trial mission is to ensure that Saintess doesn't die.
As for the rest, there are no strict rules.
Based on Chen Yu's experience in instances, killing monsters will definitely improve the mission evaluation.
As long as the method is appropriate, not only can Abyss monsters drop gold coins, but Holy Hall monsters can too.
"Although I don't want to follow the direction of the script, I can still make use of the ideas provided by the script."
Apart from disguising as the Abyss faction, he really doesn't have any other way to rescue Saintess.
The corruption of creatures from other factions by the Abyss is gradually achieved through the strong and infectious Abyss magic.
"As for the source of Abyss magic..."
Isn't it everywhere?
Around the town, even the air is filled with endless Abyss magic, corroding every creature that enters.
An ordinary person wouldn't take long to be transformed into a low-level Abyss monster.
If it weren't for the continuous operation of holy power in Chen Yu's virtual body, expelling the invading Abyss magic, he would have been assimilated by the Abyss long ago.
It's difficult to expel Abyss magic, but it's easy to introduce it.
With a thought, Chen Yu forcibly controls the holy power in his body to stop resisting.
The highly active Abyss magic begins to continuously invade his body.
"This place is simply a treasure trove."
Chen Yu feels that once his true body arrives, he will be able to replenish all the Abyss magic in no time.
After a little over an hour, the virtual body has entered a semi-Abyssized state, accumulating more than 10 units of low-quality Abyss magic.
The appearance of the body has also gained some symbols of Abyss demons.
Chen Yu tried to use the Holy Power again.
The Holy Power was released, and immediately produced a burning pain when passing through the Abyss-transformed body.
This situation is different from his original body.
Chen Yu's original body controlled Abyss magic and only used it as a professional attribute.
On the side of the virtual body, it has been completely transformed into an Abyss species, similar to the "Embrace of the Abyss" transformed plant life.
This low-level transformation is obviously not comparable to mythical skills.
After the transformation, his attributes not only did not increase, but instead decreased, falling into a weakened state.
The four-dimensional attributes decreased by about twenty percent.
However, this does not affect the progress of the mission.
The mission of this virtual body is about to be completed soon.
His original body will be able to break free from the confinement of the dark space and descend into this world in a few hours.
...
Chen Yu mobilized Abyss magic and carefully hid the Holy Power, advancing towards the town again.
The closer he got to the town, the more fallen ones there were.
On a dirt road outside the town, Chen Yu and a fallen one walked towards each other.
The fallen one glanced at Chen Yu.
But until they passed each other, there was no other reaction.
Because of the transformation of Abyss magic, the fallen one already regarded him as one of their own.
In this way, he was only an "outsider" in the town, not an "enemy".
"It should be successful."
Chen Yu raised his vigilance and slowly entered the town.
Sure enough, after entering the town, the fallen ones in the town did not pay much attention to him.
The whole town only had one main street, leading from the head to the center of the town.
In the middle, there was a circular square covering about five or six acres, with a demon statue standing in the middle of the square.
There were constantly town residents coming to the demon statue to kneel and pray.
In addition to this, the fallen ones seemed to continue their habits as pure humans.
The whole town was orderly, with few scenes of chaos.
Just as Chen Yu was staring at the demon statue, a hoarse voice like two rocks rubbing against each other sounded beside him.
"Hehe, outsider."
A fallen one walked up to Chen Yu and showed a sinister smile.
"You look weak, you need to replenish your strength."
"Your eyes deceive you, I am not weak. It only takes one punch to crush your head!" Chen Yu pushed away the fallen one, stared at him fiercely, and clenched his fist.
Although he was weak, he was still a Rank Three.
Does a mere Rank Two fallen one still want to take advantage of the situation?
"If you don't believe me, you can come and try."
"Hey, buddy, don't be impulsive, I have no ill intentions." The fallen one quickly waved his hand.
"I have something good here that can help you. You will definitely need it!"
"Can it help me get rid of the weakened state?" Chen Yu raised an eyebrow.
"That's right—" The fallen one smiled, almost stretching his mouth to his ears, enough to scare children.
In fact, it was not the Abyss transformation that made him look so ugly, he looked like this originally.
"Your sword is still new, you should be a recently fallen holy practitioner."
"Don't worry, after holy practitioners fall, they have a period of weakness. You need to quickly integrate into the Abyss."
"As long as you get through the adaptation period, your strength will quickly skyrocket!"
The fallen one led Chen Yu to a shop on the street and pointed to the corner of the shop.
There were several human corpses dressed similar to Chen Yu.
"These are some stubborn holy practitioners who tried to break into the town."
"Unfortunately, they failed and ended up like this."
"I can sell these corpses to you at a low price."
"Whether you eat them yourself or sacrifice them to the demon god in tomorrow's ritual, it will help you quickly overcome the weakened state."
