Devout Believers! The Underground Labyrinth!

Originally, Qin Feng had wanted to kill the two of them for evolution points and experience.

But now, the situation left him a little baffled.

Even after struggling through nine years in his previous life, Qin Feng had never heard of anything like this...

"It really is probably because I possess the authority of judgment."

Qin Feng had an inkling.

The appearance of such a strange Temple of Faith here might really have something to do with his Eye of Judgment.

This temple held a secret!

After some thought, he tried speaking. "Do you know the way? Lead me."

Upon hearing him, the two Devout Believers seemed a little confused...

Clearly, they had no idea what he was saying.

In fact, Qin Feng knew that the demons in the Land Abandoned by the Gods were actually beings from other civilizations.

But they had been eroded and corrupted, driven insane, even reduced to beasts that knew only how to plunder lifespan from humans...

Had these two retained a little sanity?

Just as Qin Feng was thinking this, the two Devout Believers suddenly grew alert.

A vicious look abruptly appeared on their rotting faces. They spun around and lunged toward the entrance to the hall!

"..."

Qin Feng heard a jumble of footsteps coming from the passage outside the hall.

It seemed some other players had arrived.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The two Devout Believers conjured balls of green flame in their hands and hurled them straight down the passage!

"Aaaah!"

"Holy shit, two Silver Tier bosses!"

"We can't even handle one, and now there are two?"

"Run! Hurry..."

The two Devout Believers hurled ball after ball of green flame. Frantic footsteps and panicked shouts echoed through the passage...

Qin Feng turned invisible again.

He came to the entrance of the hall and looked down the passage...

The entire passage was engulfed in a sea of green flames. Six players who had failed to escape were being burned to ashes...

"Gray Rose?"

Qin Feng spotted a familiar figure in the flames.

It was the mature, striking woman who had bought Ice Spike from him earlier. He hadn't expected her to find this Temple of Faith too...

Unfortunately, her party wasn't strong enough.

The two Silver Tier gatekeepers alone had killed her.

"This passage is too narrow. There's nowhere to dodge the Devout Believers' flames."

"Normally, when you discover the bosses, you should enter the hall first to give yourself enough room to dodge..."

Qin Feng shook his head.

He watched coldly as the six players burned to death in the green flames.

Soon, six grayish-white lifespan orbs appeared in the passage.

Qin Feng stepped forward and collected them without hesitation. The haul was decent-these people had actually dropped over a hundred days of tradable lifespan.

To Qin Feng's surprise, the two Devout Believers showed no interest whatsoever in that lifespan.

After killing the six players, they returned to the hall and knelt prostrate once more toward the spot where Qin Feng had disappeared...

Qin Feng ignored them for the moment.

He searched all around the hall, only to discover that there were no paths leading anywhere else.

"Seriously, that's it? Two Silver Grade minibosses?"

Qin Feng was utterly puzzled.

Further exploration yielded nothing.

Qin Feng simply attacked and killed the two Devout Believers.

Just as he had expected, no matter how he attacked, the two Devout Believers showed no intention of fighting back.

They let Qin Feng kill them outright!

[You have killed Ancient God Devout Believer · Judged One (Silver Grade).]

[You have gained 4,000 experience points.]

[Congratulations! You have reached level 9!]

[Congratulations! You have gained 4 evolution points!]

[You have gained 188 days of lifespan (tradable).]

After killing the two Devout Believers, Qin Feng reached level 9.

He immediately used Greedy Hand on their corpses...

Soon, Qin Feng finished dealing with the two Silver Tier minibosses.

"A total of 32 evolution points and 1,504 days of tradable lifespan."

"Epic Grade Greedy Hand is amazing!"

"And they dropped four Gold Tier items in total, plus a dozen or so Silver Grade ones..."

Among them was a Gold Tier necklace usable by Assassins.

[Believer Pendant (Gold Tier): Assassin accessory. Agility +15, cooldown speed +20%. Equipment requirement: level 8.]

[Unique effect: summons a Silver Grade Devout Believer to fight for you. Cooldown: 600 seconds.]

The necklace had good stats.

The main benefit was the 20% cooldown speed.

After Qin Feng put it on, his Shadowmeld cooldown dropped from 22.6 seconds to 19.2 seconds!

Deadly Poison Dart's cooldown dropped from 4.3 seconds to 3.7 seconds.

Instant Shadow Slash's cooldown dropped from 10.4 seconds to 8.8 seconds!

"Farming monsters will be more efficient now."

That was what Qin Feng thought.

As for the other loot, it was all level 8-10 equipment. No one would buy it at this stage even if he tried to sell it...

"I'll hold on to it for now."

Qin Feng was just about to leave.

Suddenly, the floor in the middle of the hall shifted.

Killing the two Devout Believers had finally triggered the mechanism!

"Is this an elevator?"

Qin Feng took a look.

A round stone platform had risen from the floor in the center of the hall. Qin Feng had seen plenty of these in his previous life.

He immediately stepped onto it.

Then, with a rumbling noise, the round stone platform actually carried him downward!

A circular shaft appeared in the middle of the hall...

Once Qin Feng had been lowered out of sight,

two semicircular stone slabs immediately slid out from the sides and sealed the shaft!

Everything returned to its original state, as though the round stone platform elevator had never appeared...

If anyone else came here, they would see only the corpses of the two Devout Believers, and nothing else...

Boom!

With a thunderous crash, the round stone platform carrying Qin Feng reached the ground.

Loose gravel and sand shook free and rained down around him.

Qin Feng felt that the round stone platform had carried him at least three or four hundred meters down!

The surroundings were actually much brighter here.

Dim yellow torches shone at intervals along the stone walls on either side.

"Sure enough, it's a labyrinth."

Qin Feng took one look and sighed.

He had explored plenty of labyrinths like this in his previous life, so he knew his way around them.

But exploring one completely would still take quite some time.

Most importantly...

There were plenty of traps inside the labyrinth!

With Qin Feng's current stats, triggering one of those traps would almost certainly mean death.

"Good thing this just dropped."

Qin Feng touched the Believer Pendant on his chest.

He activated its special effect and summoned a Silver Grade Devout Believer!

A gray-skinned humanoid demon, prostrate on the ground, materialized before Qin Feng...

"Scout ahead."

At Qin Feng's command, the Devout Believer began crawling ahead of him, exploring the Underground Labyrinth...

With a minion scouting ahead, things became much easier for Qin Feng.

With some time to spare, Qin Feng opened his skill panel, ready to use the 32 evolution points he had just obtained to keep evolving his skills!
