Chapter 216: The Moonlight Goddess’s Warning

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ella was clearly in a very good mood. Not only was her crisis solved, but the scale of her believers had also increased by countless times.

In the history of the lost continent, few had designated a certain God as the national religion. It could be said that it would not be long before Ella could take off. Her bell-like laughter rang in Li Cheng’s heart. ‘Hahaha, I really am undefeatable!”

Hearing this, the corners of Li Cheng’s mouth twitched. This lady was good at everything except using her brain. When she went crazy, she was a complete joke.

As for Princess Lena, or rather, Queen Lena, she was in a hurry to stabilize the situation. After Li Cheng’s attack, Hindley City had suffered heavy losses.

The loss of countless people and high-ranking military officers was not to be mentioned. The countless Mythical-grade city walls in the south were blown into smithereens.

After Li Cheng had used all kinds of skills, the destructive power of his troops could only be described as terrifying. Countless buildings in Hindley City had fallen into paralysis, including their countless military buildings.

Of course, this had nothing to do with Li Cheng. He narrowed his eyes slightly and set his gaze on a few particularly eye-catching buildings, even for Hindley City. They were the guilds of some powerful Gods!

As a huge empire, the major churches naturally had their own branches here, and Li Cheng’s destination was the Moonlight Church.

The walls of the Moonlight Church were made of moon-white marble. During the fierce siege, they did not seem to be affected at all. They looked out of place in the midst of all the smoke and ruins.

Li Cheng arrived at the door of the Moonlight Church but he was stopped by two guards. “You are?”

Li Cheng was not angry. “Netherworld,” he said in a faint tone.

When they heard his name, the eyes of the two guards immediately shrank. Though it was a made-up name, his reputation definitely preceded him. They hurriedly lowered their heads and said, “Duke Netherworld, please, come in. Miss Saintess has been waiting for a long time.”

“Saintess?” Li Cheng raised his eyebrows. He could not recall if he knew the Saintess of the Moonlight Church.

However, he did not ask much. The two guards did not know much either. They simply nodded slightly and went in with Luna.

His purpose this time was to come for the Moonlight Stone, so he did not let his troops in. The interior layout of the Moonlight Church was similar to that of the Church of Light, but there were many differences between them. The biggest difference was that there were small fountains with clear water flowing everywhere in the Moonlight Church.

Seeing this, he naturally knew that this was not an ordinary building. Hence, he cast a detection spell on it.

[Moonlight Fountain]

[Description: The water flowing out from the fountain contains the Moonlight Goddess’s divine power. One sip of it can recover a lot of HP.]

[Level: 1]

[Grade: Mythical]

[Effect: purify all debuffs below Immortal-grade, recover 50% HP. One unit can only drink it once a day.]

..

Seeing this, Li Cheng’s mouth twitched again. As expected of one of the nine shrines, the Moonlight Church was quite wealthy. Its Mythical-grade facilities filled the entire corridor like decorations.

Most importantly, this was just a branch of the Moonlight Church. Its headquarters was located elsewhere. Still, the effect of the spring water was pretty good.

It could purify many debuffs like the poison caused by the zombies. Li Cheng did not think too much about it and continued walking forward.

In the depths of the church, Li Cheng saw a slim figure wearing a moon-white robe in front of a statue of the Moonlight Goddess. His eyelids twitched. How was this the Saintess of the Moonlight Church? It was clearly a clone of the Moonlight Goddess!

Thinking of this, Li Cheng took a deep breath and asked, “Your Highness, you were looking for me?”

As soon as his voice fell, the Moonlight Goddess slowly turned around. Her slender and graceful body was covered by a hazy pillar of light like the moonlight, making it impossible to see her appearance clearly. Her watery eyes looked at Li Cheng as she said, “What you did in Hindley City cannot be hidden from everyone’s eyes.”

“And?” Li Cheng asked expressionlessly.

Naturally, he knew about this already, but he was not afraid. He had the confidence to negotiate with the Gods now!

Hearing Li Cheng’s response, the Moonlight Goddess was silent for a moment. Then, her voice became cold. “Don’t test the Gods’ bottom line. You’re playing with fire. Trelefany and Ella can’t protect you.”

The Moonlight Goddess’s cold voice echoed in the temple, but Li Cheng scoffed it off.

The bottom line of the Gods? Do the nine temples have a bottom line? Were all of them not harboring evil intentions?

Other than a few kind-hearted Gods who could not think straight, the other Gods would never take action as long as it did not align with their interests.

Li Cheng did not want to say anything more to the Moonlight Goddess, so he asked, “It’s useless to say anything more. Just tell me what are the conditions for obtaining the Moonlight Stone?”

The Moonlight Goddess did not waste any time and said, “Help me destroy an altar of the Goddess of Darkness. Whether you succeed or not, I’ll do my best to help this girl’s path of advancement.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the system’s voice rang in Li Cheng’s ears.

“Ding, dong! The Moonlight Goddess has issued you an SSS-class quest. Destroy the altar. Do you accept it?”

Destroy the altar of the Goddess of Darkness?

Hearing the words of the Moonlight Goddess, Li Cheng was slightly stunned. He did not expect it to be such a request. Everyone knew that the Goddess of Darkness was already his mortal enemy. Was it considered a quest for him to destroy it?

There had to be something fishy going on. Li Cheng would not agree to it so easily. Instead, he asked, “Which altar?”

“The fifth level of the Underdark,” said the Moonlight Goddess.

Hearing the words of the Moonlight Goddess, Li Cheng sneered and replied, “Hehe, you really have the nerve to say that.”

The Underdark was what people called the underground world. But in fact, under the Underdark, there was an extremely vast space. The people living there were all extremely terrifying existences. Even the residents of the subterranean world did not dare to approach it.

If Li Cheng remembered correctly, this altar was probably the largest altar of the Goddess of Darkness. The difficulty of attacking it was not much lower than attacking the Church of Light.

Hearing Li Cheng’s cold laughter, the Moonlight Goddess frowned. She did not expect this human to have such little respect for her. However, she had a quest for him, so she explained, “You don’t need to complete it immediately. You can do it when you feel like you’re ready.”

“If that’s the case, that’s fine..” Li Cheng Thought for a moment and accepted the mission.
