Chapter 1643: 982: Sain’s Great Loss? (Part 2)

Then, the remnants of the Holy Light Church sought change, treating Gwyn, the one who slew the Demon King, as the new Light God for worship, with well-reasoned arguments claiming the Sunlight King is inherently related to the Light God. A whole set of reasons were concocted, resulting in almost a heated argument between the Starfire Church and the Holy Light Church over this matter, and this is before the conflict has even begun to fester.

It won’t be surprising if they start skirmishing in the future.

The question of whether Gwyn is the Fire God or the Light God is unlikely to lead to a "dual chef’s delight".

It’s hard to believe that at this moment, Sain Dungeon would experience an "out-of-circle" effect.

The massive reputation brought naturally leads to more attention, and more attention brings new crowds.

The surge in visitor traffic to Sain Dungeon due to these events doesn’t need much elaboration, and apart from the traditional adventurer groups, other miscellaneous individuals entering the dungeon have noticeably increased.

Some come to worship their gods, some seek opportunistic chances, some just visit, and others...

This crowd unrelated to adventure is gradually increasing.

Ever since he discovered that more bystanders began to appear, Gong Qiying knew Sain Dungeon had truly expanded its circle.

In the adventurer community, high popularity might be impressive, but being well-known among the public is an even broader horizon!

The hope is that the increased crowd can help shorten the recouping time for Sain’s losses.

And the increased fame of Sain Dungeon has successfully brought it faith.

Gwyn and Nite respectively hold positions as the Fire God, Light God, and Death God, which grants them corresponding divine powers. Perhaps as faith deepens, these divine powers might continue to grow.

Gong Qiying discovered that these powers can also be applied to the dungeon.

They can function similarly to dungeon permissions!

The Fire God’s power of [Flame Control] has minimal effect on the dungeon, while the Light God’s power of [Light-Dark Conversion] might be used to create effects for certain scenes.

The most useful is undoubtedly the Death God’s power of [Death Rejection].

As the name suggests, using this power can render creatures death-free, and it consumes faith.

It’s well known that resurrecting monsters in Sain Dungeon after being killed also requires spiritual power.

Even if just using [Death Rejection] on Boss Monsters can save a considerable amount of spiritual power for Sain Dungeon!

While others use divine powers to think about ruling the world, Gong Qiying’s mind is solely focused on infrastructure.

If the wealth of reputation and divine powers can eventually be classified under spiritual power gains, then there’s a type of gain distinct from spiritual power.

That is memory fragments from Viskasa.

At this moment, these memory fragments, transformed into books, are lying calmly on the table before Gong Qiying, and he’s already devoured the hefty tome.

This book is thick enough to be used as a weapon, likely quite popular among Reyalucaria magicians.

However, compared to those years Viskasa survived, this book doesn’t seem so thick, and could even be considered too thin.

After chewing through the book from beginning to end, Gong Qiying learned many things he hadn’t known before.

Most of the book’s content is trivial details of Viskasa’s daily life, but the truly valuable bits are indeed rich in content.

He learned about the lifestyle and social structure of the Demon Clan, as well as various matters concerning them, all information unavailable in the past.

Unexpectedly, the Demon Clan to this day remains a tribal alliance society. Their culture is more abundant than imagined, and they are even oviparous.

The life of Viskasa was also pieced together.

As the most responsible god, the Light God always split his consciousness to descend into the mortal world to help people fight the Demon King, and Viskasa is one such consciousness.

However, this fragment of consciousness underwent a change in thinking, with rebellious thoughts occupying the mainstream, making it favor the Demon King, ultimately rejecting returning to the main body and staying in this world, scheming Scameroon’s plot.

Why can the Demon King inspire fascination in a fragment of the Light God’s consciousness?

This most curious part turned out to be missing memory.

Viskasa personally experienced the era the world calls lost history, and there’s a small portion of related information in the books, mostly documenting customs and habits similar to now, with no major revelations.

However, when he read about the massacre at the Elf Clan, he found the record in the book said...

"They made their move, decisively, with no retreat, and I admire their resolve."

The meaning of this sentence is completely unrecorded in the book.

Could it be that a group of evil gods caused the loss of history? Otherwise, using "They" doesn’t make sense.

Lastly, the most unexpected part for Gong Qiying was.

"Great Demon Tree."

This tree, considered the World Tree for the Demon Clan, allows them to naturally surpass other races in information gathering. The most evident aspect is that the Demon Clan’s upper echelons know about the existence of the Dungeon Lord.

Upon seeing this, Gong Qiying couldn’t help but think of the Demon Clan’s Dungeon Lord who once fought him, whose soul returns to the Great Demon Tree, carrying memories upon death, allowing demon priests capable of communicating with the tree to review their memories.

"No wonder, no wonder the Demon Clan knows about the abyss and such, turns out my intel leaked earlier than I imagined."

Those Demon Clan members attracted to the abyss probably arose because of this, but...

"I have something I can’t understand."

Gong Qiying muttered to himself, puzzled: "I practically used all my dirty bombs on that Demon Clan Dungeon Lord, and reasonably, seeing his memories alone should cause a strong mental impact."

Could it be that those demon priests are strong enough to withstand the spiritual impacts of Mad Fire and still survive?

If that’s the case, then the Demon Clan’s strength is not to be underestimated, hiding masters.

In Viskasa’s memory, there is mention of a Demon Clan High Priest named Onora, portrayed as a formidable woman.

What caught Gong Qiying’s attention was that she seemed to have a strong obsession with the abyss, while Viskasa was confident he could establish stronger personal influence over her than the abyss.

"This person might be useful."

The Twilight Dungeon opened on the Demon Continent barely attracts anyone. If Onora’s favor could be garnered, with her support, the Demon Clan would surely come in droves.

Thus, the Twilight Dungeon would undoubtedly flourish!

Gong Qiying continuously extracted everything beneficial for dungeon development from Viskasa’s memories, and he has already planned the development route for the dungeon opened in the Demon Clan.

It certainly won’t adopt the same strategy as existing dungeons.

He intends to make good use of his experience as a god in Scameroon.

Applying this experience diligently on the Demon Continent’s dungeon.

The Hidden Dull Star wants to quietly develop on the Western Continent and finally have a final showdown with me?

Sorry, Gong Qiying himself has no such intention; he just wants to prevent the Hidden Dull Star from developing from the start, so...

"I want to fundamentally destroy the Demon Clan’s positive feelings toward the Demon King."

"Make the Demon King like the former Fire God and Death God, an outdated presence rejected by the masses."

Achieving these things isn’t difficult; it only requires some minor tactics.

"Hmm?"

Todd suddenly opened his eyes and muttered to himself:

"I feel the God of Fire is calling me."
