Chapter 163: Riot
Null and 『』 raced on top of the building, as they gradually approached the edge of District 7, portals suddenly appeared in various corners of the city.
Individuals dressed in black robes walked out from the portals.
"The most worrying thing has happened," Null said with a serious expression.
『』 looked out and saw ghoul, skeletons, and Poisoners ranging from fourth-tier to sixth-tier.
These creatures all shared a common trait – they had little life force but could move freely, clearly the work of the Church of the Lord of Eternity.
Throughout the game, the Church of the Lord of Eternity was a powerful force. Besides battling Karoso, players faced off against this church’s members.
Karoso had encountered a thought from the deity Lord of Eternity. The Lord of Eternity appeared as a calm and easy-going god, and could communicate with Karoso normally.
Deities like this often acted on their own whims. They might not actually intend to manifest, but rather their followers wished for it.
Sometimes, the issue lay not with the gods themselves, but with their followers.
Just like how some beliefs and policies may have good intentions, the execution could pose challenges.
"There aren’t too many of them now, should we take action?" asked 『』.
"We are probably rare eighth-tier powerful individuals in this city; we shouldn’t waste our strength here, we need to find the source," said Null. "According to records, the major turmoil in Canglang Province was resolved when a dungeon boss-like being was defeated."
"But, with so many monsters spreading in the city, how many civilians will be hurt or killed?" 『』 looked at Null and said, "We can’t just stand by!"
"『』, we should focus on the bigger picture." Null said helplessly.
"How about we split up? I’ll deal with the smaller monsters, and you go find the source," 『』 suggested. "As long as we buy time, the kingdom will not ignore us. I believe support will arrive soon. Let’s try to minimize casualties during this time."
"Don’t forget, I am a Card Maker, not a fighter," Null shook his head. "We’re not like Karoso, who can both fight and make cards without delay."
This is the difference between Null and 『』, their personalities are not exactly the same.
While playing the game, although the general direction leads to the same goal, choosing between Null and 『』 can sometimes trigger different storylines and options, making it like playing two different stories in some major battles.
Let’s give praise to this game, Sora and White are not the typical characters who handle situations in the exact same way, they are not just a simple gender swap.
"Well… alright," 『』 nodded helplessly, in important matters, Null should make the decision.
"That is…" Null’s gaze quickly locked onto a point, "There is no mistake, it’s eighth-tier!"
Suddenly, a huge portal appeared in the sky, and an old man in a black cloak slowly descended from it, landing by the seaside.
"Go meet him!" 『』 took a step and rushed towards the other side.
"Don’t be impulsive… sigh…" Null helplessly shook his head and quickly followed. He knew 『』 wanted to solve the problem here quickly and then help ordinary people.
……
These ghouls had just appeared and already gone into a frenzy.
Bang!
A ghoul crashed into a two-story house.
It was a normal family of three, with the man holding a kitchen knife, his hand trembling, and his wife holding their daughter behind him.
"What is that…" the man’s voice was shaky.
The ghoul grinned and pounced towards the man.
"Go away!"
The man swung a kitchen knife, but the ghoul wasn’t hurt. It opened its bloody mouth and bit down.
Splurt…
"Ah!"
The man screamed as a big piece of his neck was bitten off.
Bang!
With a strong swing, the ghoul sent the man crashing into the wall.
Crack!
His neck made a loud snap, slowly fell to the ground, and seemed lifeless.
The ghoul looked at the mother and daughter in front of him, smiled, and opened his mouth wide.
Bang!
Just then, someone kicked the door open, threw a grenade, and narrowly threw it into the ghoul’s mouth.
Boom…
With a loud blast, the ghoul’s head exploded, blood splattering everywhere.
The person was wearing a German military uniform, obviously a soldier of Karoso, the elite of the elite in the guard battalion, the reconnaissance platoon!
"Seal the doors and windows!" the soldier shouted.
"Wow…"
The little girl burst into tears.
But the soldier ignored her, because there were more people who needed his help.
Just as he turned around, he saw a Poisoner grinning at him.
The soldier quickly retreated, grabbed his gun and aimed at the Poisoner, "Hurry! Run to other people’s houses, lock the doors and windows!"
Upon hearing this, the mother picked up her daughter and ran.
……
Karoso and the others’ progress was starting to be hindered.
Watching the monsters coming out of the portal, Karoso equipped his Sword Shield, while Teresa took out her three-in-one great sword.
As Karoso and the others moved forward, Karoso meant to save as many as possible without forcing themselves, everyone had to ensure their own survival as the top priority.
The army is limited for now, but we don’t know how many monsters there are.
In just thirty short minutes, Karoso’s reconnaissance unit had already started losing members, all of them were elite.
"Will, you handle all the fifth-tier and sixth-tier small and big bosses." Teresa focused intently, "Karoso, we’ll take care of these smaller ones."
"Okay."
After Karoso finished speaking, they both ran towards the ghoul that had come out of the portal, one from the left and one from the right.
Their coordination was flawless, the third-tier skeletons, Poisoner, and ghoul couldn’t harm them.
Karoso also summoned many followers to protect the machine gun platoon, the people carrying heavy weapons were valuable.
Will was the top fighting force in this team, taking down all the five and sixth-tier monsters they encountered on the way.
He was indeed very strong individually, but the pressure was all on him, he was feeling very uncomfortable, and he had very little energy left.
Buzz!
Neymar’s Ice Mage played a big role at this moment. She didn’t have to kill the monsters, just freeze them, and let the soldiers take care of the rest.
"How much further?" Teresa gritted her teeth. "Darn it, there are too many monsters!"
"More than we imagined!" Karoso said solemnly.
"We need to save ammunition. If every area is like this… it will be a long battle," said Teresa.
"We are facing more than just a double dungeon riot, it’s a triple threat!" Teresa exclaimed.
[Gosh, they are really increasing the difficulty level?]
[According to the plot, there should be no Poisoner, but now even Poisoners are present here.]
[This isn’t a double dungeon chaos, it’s a triple one!]
[Oh no, who is targeting Master Karoso?]
