Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 37 - 40 Saint Lance Sewer_1
Chapter 37: Chapter 40 Saint Lance Sewer_1
Chapter 37 -40 Saint Lance Sewer_1
As an experienced gamer, Lin Xun knew exactly what “Hidden Map” meant.
Treasures, side quests, bonus events, hidden NPCs, and so on.
For instances in the game “World of Warcraft,” players used a glitch to cross the sea to a hidden island, only to meet a GM in a tombstone on the island…
In short, there were definitely good things in the hidden map that weren’t in the normal process, and the key to defeating the Sea Dragon Boss must be in the hidden map!
For a moment, Lin Xun’s eyes were shining brightly.
With swift operations, he was about to head down the southern road, luring the Sea Dragon Boss to breathe out dragon’s breath once more.
It suddenly occurred to him, he was still possessing the body of the Yellow Bishop.
“If I had known, I would have gone back to the church and picked up the body of the nun first.”
It was more than appropriate to use the nun as bait to lure the boss into launching an attack.
But now, the body of the nun had vanished from the world along with the safety house.
Helpless, he could only…
“Come out, it’s decided, it’s you, Blacksmith!”
[You are possessing the body of ‘The Fallen Blacksmith’.]
Fortunately, he had quickly recalled the warhorse which was outside the church just now, it didn’t get sacrificed.
Once again summoning the warhorse, he managed to get the blacksmith onto the horse.
[Where do you want to go?]
[You set foot on the road heading south.]
[You have reached the end of the road, staring at the giant object in front of you…]
Upon seeing the Sea Dragon Boss again, Lin Xun thought there would be options to engage in close combat, beg for mercy, or release an ability and run. Unexpectedly…
[The ‘Subspecies Sea Dragon’ roars in anger upon seeing you, opening its bloody, stinking mouth, brimming with a ball of red and dangerous light!]
Damn! I’ve changed my body, how do you still recognize me?
Three options appeared before his eyes.
[Apostle about to die, where do you choose to flee?]
[1. The distant Fox castle from behind]
[2. The Eastern blood tower.]
[3. The Western bell tower ruins.]
He quickly hit the third option.
[You gallop towards the west on your horse. You had just reached the front of the bell tower ruins when…]
[You see a breath of red dragon filling all your vision.]
[You are dead!]
Good, mission accomplished perfectly!
Lin Xun nodded in satisfaction. The blacksmith and the warhorse sacrificed their lives in a meaningful manner.
[The weak Wandering Soul is resurrected in the familiar Small Church…]
Possessing the body of the Yellow Bishop, he arrived at the crossroads where the White Moon Church was located.
The game text has changed for the western road among the four.
[To your right hand side was the west: the ruins of the tallest landmark of Saint Lance – the fallen Artemis Clock Tower. The mountain-like debris and broken bricks had been leveled by a destructive force, no longer exist. ]
[You have discovered a ‘New Road’ full of scars.]
[Do you want to proceed?]
It’s indeed a hidden map!
Lin Xun excitedly raised a fist, directly clicked “Yes”.
[You follow the ‘New Road’ and gradually arrived at the edge of the town of Saint Lance.]

[This place was desolate and lifeless. After much searching, you found a metallic hatch on the ground nearby.]
[You lift the metal plate at the hatch, and a set of stairs leading underground appeared before your eyes.]
[A disgusting smell was wafted out from the darkness of the hole, and you could faintly hear the sound of dripping water and the sound of flowing water. It appeared to be the sewers of Saint Lance.]
[Do you want to enter the ‘Saint Lance Sewer’?]
Sewer?
Just hearing the name, you know there must be monsters inside, probably the really disgusting ones.
Yet, Lin Xun didn’t hesitate and immediately clicked “Yes”.
[You cover your mouth and nose, follow the stairs, and enter a dark and moist sewer.]
[The ‘Thunder Dragon Staff Spear’ in your hand emits a soft golden glow, illuminating the previously pitch-black surroundings.]
[The sewer is very cramped and narrow. The top of the arched tunnel is only half a shell’s length from your head, and the foul black sewage water covers your ankles.]
[You continue down the tunnel.]
[You hear something crawling in the darkness ahead, do you want to investigate?]
Ha, you really think I’ll fall for that silly trick?
Going by the behavior of this hellish game, investigating would most likely result in a big red “trap”.
Lin Xun, not caring about what kind of demon or ghost might be ahead, directly opened his skill bar.
He clicked ‘Profane Sunlight’, and fired a skill shot into the darkness at the monster.
[Cautious Apostle, you raise your staff spear and start chanting the spell…]
[A flash of red light…]
[A miserable scream echoes for a long time in the cold, damp sewer.]
[You have defeated the ‘Degenerate Creeper’, and your experience points have slightly increased.]
[You obtained the Stinky Feces Stone (junk)]
[The crawling sound in front disappears. With the light emitting from your staff spear, you carefully check the dead creature.]
[The shell of the ‘Degenerate Creeper’, a twisted humanoid monster that only has its upper body left, was originally covered in wriggling maggots. It died from the powerful heat that spurted out, its stench mixed with a nauseating smell of cooked meat.]
How come this shell has no compatibility?
After reading the text carefully, he discovered that the monster only had its upper body left and did not meet the requirements for a complete shell possession.
Lin Xun urgently put the thought of possession out of his mind. Even if this shell had compatibility, he wouldn’t dream of possessing such a disgusting shell.
[You look at the monster in front of you, memories within the shell began to recover somewhat…]
[Before the profane power of the Blood Sun reached Saint Lance, there were already followers in Moonlight Town that believed in the Blood Sun. Under the command of the Yellow Bishop Augustus, they were bisected by the guardian knights of the White Moon Church, and thrown into the sewers of Saint Lance, rotting until people forgot about them.]
Oh, it was the little monster I created myself. In that case, there’s no problem.
After Lin Xun finished reading the text, he chose to continue forward.
[You step over the rotting shell on the ground and continue onwards.]
[Not far away, you faintly see a familiar, faint light.]
[You quickly move forward and find a huge page floating in mid-air at the fork in the tunnel.]
[You found a remnant page of the Book of Salvation—Rest Page!]
So it’s the respawn point, I thought it was something like a treasure chest.
[You move forward and touch the Rest Page. The residual mysterious power within makes your heart palpitate, as your feeble soul resonates strongly with the page.]
[You resonate with the ‘Saint Lance Sewer’ Rest Page…]
After setting this place as his respawn point, Lin Xun refreshed and took a rest once.
He turned back and went to rout the ‘Degenerate Creeper’.
Farming experience, what a humble start.
After farming the monster twice, Lin Xun noticed that there were two paths at the back of the Rest Page.
“Probably a labyrinth like the mine.”
With prior experience, Lin Xun got up from the bed and recorded his route on his computer to avoid getting lost or missing any areas to explore.
During the subsequent exploration, just as he expected, he encountered branching paths and monsters in the sewers of Saint Lance.
Apart from ‘Degenerate Creeper’, there were also various monsters such as ‘Degenerate Giant Rat’, ‘Degenerate Twisted Worm’, and ‘Degenerate Red-eyed Bat’.
However, these monsters didn’t drop any special items, mostly junk like feces stones, with only a few dropping soul items.
After killing a pile of monsters, the level of the Yellow Bishop hadn’t increased, it seemed that after reaching over ten levels, the experience needed to level up was massive.
He wasn’t in a hurry, he could happily farm experience after he finished exploring the sewer and took a rest at the Rest Page.
[You continue onwards and find a slightly ajar wooden door on the wall of the tunnel next to you. Weak orange light peeks out from within.]
[Do you want to push the door and enter?]
Uh? Now we’re talking!
Lin Xun’s eyes lit up…
