Knights and twisted cultists guard the bustling passage.
The migration has begun, with the first Inner Ring residents moving along the passage with their luggage.
Because there is only one road leading to the core cave, the gathering team quickly formed a long queue that was moving slowly.
Allen followed and guarded the team. His thin robe seemed to isolate Allen from the residents, making it difficult for him to integrate into the excitement of the team. The occasional glances he cast were only filled with curiosity and awe.
Occasionally they complained in low voices why the team was so slow. Allen knew the reason and entered the dungeon to investigate the residents. Those with low sanity syndrome and those with excessive infection will be temporarily eliminated. They will face three choices: become believers at this moment, maintain the status quo,
Become a believer on the verge of madness and aberration.
The former will be converted directly into believers and remain as they are in the Vina Refuge Zone, while the latter will be converted at the end.
Lu Li has reached an agreement with Mateus. Before they leave, the twisted figures will leave sacrificial believers in the Weiner Dungeon to transform those residents who should have been abandoned, creating a relatively stable output of believers.
Compared to Andrea and Lu Li, Twisted Figure may be the real beneficiary of this trip. His long time in the Land of Light only brought him less than a hundred believers, and most of them were pan-believers. And the people in Weiner Refuge Area
His one-week stay gave him more than 400 followers, and the number continues to increase.
When leaving, the twisted figure may be able to bring back nearly a thousand believers. Even the alien god in the desolate land god town will not have many more believers than this.
This means that the twisted figure will be able to lift the divine fire and become a true supernatural god like the mother of the swamp...
It also means the camp shortens the time it takes to retake old Belfast...
"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh"
The sound of children crying woke up Allen, who was thinking divergently. Not far away, a girl was hit by the crowd and sat on the ground, covering her bruised knees and crying.
The cloak shook slightly, and Allen subconsciously wanted to help, but in the end he did not reach out.
He is no longer a human being and should keep his distance from the residents.
The girl's father quickly squeezed over, picked her up, put her on his shoulders, and returned to the team with a tearful laugh.
Frankly speaking, Allen rarely sees this scene.
In the outer ring, numbness and pain prevail. They are like slums in the city, lacking food, water, and safety. They also face robbery and oppression by gangs. Knights and soldiers will pass by every few hours or even days.
, it is simply impossible to protect them.
This is not the case now, except for a few who are anxious about leaving home, most people have hopes and expectations.
After all, this is the Wiener Refuge Zone, and that is the Wiener Dungeon.
A city more suitable for humans.
Allen squirmed with the team that approached two-tenths of the population of the Weiner Refuge Area. After a while, he arrived at the core cave, causing many residents to mistakenly think that this was where the dignitaries of the underground city lived.
The stretches of exquisite houses and the neat scenes in the windows made the residents envious and increased their expectations for the underground city. Although they all knew that it was impossible for the underground city to be completed in less than a week, they still had blind trust in the exorcist.
Still makes many people optimistic.
Entering the long, almost endless tunnel from the center of the core cave, the team became crowded again and their movement became slow.
After spending nearly thirty minutes waiting to get to the exit, people finally understood the real reason for the crowding because they, like the previous group of people, were stunned at the exit.
The vast underground world unfolds before your eyes, and the darkness makes this area seem endless. Fluorite like stars twinkles above your head, corresponding to the cave that extends deep into the cave.
Allen thought of an oil painting he saw not long ago, "The Theater with Bright Lights", in which seats filled with figures stretched out like stairs, and an opera was performed on a bright stage.
The stretching seats in the oil painting are those stone houses, and the flat farmland in the distance is the stage.
Allen thought blankly.
Is this the new home the exorcists have prepared for us...them?
Maybe becoming a believer is a bad idea?
It doesn't know.
…
"Is this what the Exorcist has in store for us?"
Maxson glanced at the notes handed over by Mateus: "It's all very detailed...but can we really do it?"
"It didn't work before. We have been living on our last breath and just thinking about how to survive but have no time to care about anything else." Mateus felt pleased. He was pleased that the Weiner Underground City was coming to life, and he was pleased with Lu Li's selfless help: "Look at this again."
This is the status of the refuge areas compiled by Matthäus in the past week.
"The number of unnatural deaths: 581...is it decreasing by nearly half every day?"
"Here are the statistics for the week."
Matthaus's addition surprised Maxson.
Because Lu Li's arrival has improved the chaos in the outer ring, because the Twisted Cultists have replenished the porous defense line in the refuge area, and because they have seen hope of continuing to live.
Although this is sad news, nearly a hundred unnatural deaths every day in a place with a population of 80,000 are still obviously too high.
Maxon re-read the notes Lu Li gave to Mateus, which contained the exorcist's suggested future route for the Wiener Dungeon.
[Light is one of the indispensable resources for human survival: research/manufacture/find a light source that is brighter than fluorescent stone and has low/no consumption]
[Water is one of the indispensable resources for human survival: find stable underground rivers or accumulate groundwater]
[Food is one of the indispensable resources for human survival: planting farmland for self-reliance]
[Pick up knowledge again; re-establish civilization; re-establish a system; regain power.]
Mateus gestured to Maxson to look at the wall of stacked books in the corner: "The Exorcist hopes that we can rise again and walk back to the surface from the underground."
"It's hard..."
"It is difficult, but it must be done."
Matthäus is also troubled by other problems.
Not the evil gods who have temporarily disappeared, but those in the outer ring who are stained with the blood of the same kind.
The lack of order means that chaos dominates, and the tentacles of the refuge area cannot reach the edge of the outer ring, which also means that there is chaos there.
Robbery and invasion are but one of the most trivial crimes.
Those who killed people, those gangs who oppressed the residents, and even those who cooperated with the weird, Mateus didn't want them to go to the dungeon at all, nor did he want them to become believers and go to the Land of Light. They had to pay the price.
But before dealing with them, Maxon rushed back with urgent news: they were in trouble...or rather lucky.
The second underground city dug out an underground river.
Mateus felt the scene and found that Lu Li and his allies had arrived. The rushing glacier gurgled between the moist rock walls, rushing eastward to merge into the ocean.
It is unclear whether this undercurrent is formed by melted snow water, but there is no doubt that this partially excavated underground city will be converted into an underground lake and become a resource for the Weiner Underground City to rely on for survival. A connection to the underground city can also be dug.
