Netheril’s Glory

Chapter 94: The crazy Believers.

Just when all these believers completed their prayers and planned to get up and scatter, a pale white energy ball with the size of a ping-pong ball quietly rolled into the middle of the inner chamber. Then, with a blinding flash of white light, the energy ball slowly disappeared, and the inner room became as silent as before, as if nothing ever happened... But some powerful ones among the believers could clearly perceive that a layer of unknown energy suddenly and quickly surrounded this whole area.

At the same time, with a soft bang, a figure in a grey robe flew over the believer's head with incredible speed and landed in front of the innermost iron gate. The tall body of this figure then firmly blocked the iron gate that was only enough for one person to pass through.

Facing such a sudden and unexpected situation, ordinary people would become panic-stricken, especially when the mysterious ball that suddenly exploded in front of them carried the aura of an official level spell.

After all, it was a well-known fact amongst all professional that an enemy with such power couldn't be resisted with quantity.

Considering these facts, Punk estimated that the believers with the fastest reflexes would start to flee in different directions, so to prevent them from running out of the "silent domain," he had already begun to prepare his next spell after ordering No. 1 to block the iron gate.

Soon Punk completed a trainee-level elemental spell, "Rock fence," which created a circle of rock wall from the ground and surrounded the whole area.

Punk had to keep these believers alive for interrogation, but because he didn't have any large scale official level restraining spell, he had to use this trainee-level spell. Anyway, even such a trainee level spell, when cast with his official level mana, was not something these half-spider people would be able to break through easily. So it was more than enough to stop this group of unprepared believers for some time.

Punk had completed all these steps in less than a second, so no matter how fast these guys' reaction was, they never had the opportunity to escape or alert someone.

However, even when facing a sudden and powerful enemy, the behaviour of these believers was bizarre. Let alone preparing to escape; there was not even a trace of panic on their faces. On the contrary, in the beginning, the expression of these believers was dull and numb, but after Punk showed up, it almost instantly turned into a kind of crazy joy that could not be concealed. This kind of pure excitement was just like a poor person suddenly seeing a pile of gold.

"Haha, the enemy predicted by the Lord has come. It's time to give all we have to the great goddess Ti Xiaer..."

"Nothing can be hidden from our great goddess Ti Xiaer!"

"Finally, the time has come, the time has come, yes, it's here..."

"Redemption, I can finally get my Salvation, I am willing to give my life, my soul, my everything......"

These believers did not show any vigilance or panic facing Punk's attacks; instead, they started to praise the so-called " the great goddess Ti Xiaer" loudly, and some believers had even begun to cry bitter tears.

At the same time, the souls of these believers began to fluctuate wildly, and a large amount of blood began to spew out of their mouths and noses. Their roughly stitched spider bodies started to twist as if they were out of control, and because of this, the sutures between their upper bodies and lower body started to break one by one.

Very soon, all these believers' bodies were covered with their own blood, but they not only turned a blind eye to their injuries, but some of them even knelt down on the ground and kept thanking the goddess Ti Xiaer for giving them salvation.

Punk was stunned after seeing how the more than 50 believers twisted their bodies into a mangled mess in just two or three seconds, their organs splattered on the ground.

The development of this situation was far beyond his expectation. The changes of the enemy seemed to be just a group of crazy believers killing themselves. However, he felt a faint sense of danger in his heart from the ground, which was now filled with broken bones and blood.

Punk guessed that these believers were sacrificing themselves in order to execute some kind of killer move or weird skill. So he quickly prepared another trainee level spell intending to interrupt this bloody and weird ritual, but at last, he had to disperse the spell as it was no longer useful; the ceremony of that group of crazy believers had already come to an end.

The upper bodies of these believers had completely turned into pieces of scattered meat, and the lower half of their spider bodies had turned into green pus, and then it began to mix with the scattered meat. Their souls burst out with extremely bright red light and started to revolve around the strange spider statue and formed a rapidly rotating soul whirlwind. Then the semi-liquid body parts on the ground flew to the centre of the soul whirlwind in large groups until all flesh and blood entered the whirlwind and formed a giant floating ball. The souls surrounding it became excited and begun to enter inside the flesh and blood ball.

When the final soul entered it, the big ball of flesh and blood, which had now become dark red, slowly grew sharp limbs and a small spider head, and eight of the most powerful souls formed the spider's eight eyes. After the spider's body was completely formed, a layer of dark green pus flowed over it and became its outer shell covering its whole body. Many faces with the expression of excitement could be seen wandering around inside the spider's body through the translucent pus shell.

The duration of this whole process was only about five seconds, almost like the transformation of the transformers. Although the process was complex, the speed of its completion was extremely rapid, so before Punk could figure out the situation and then plan an appropriate action, the dark green spider was already formed. But the most significant reason behind his inability to take action was that these believers were too unified in their actions, and their reaction was also too quick. They didn't even hesitate for a moment before deciding to commit mass suicide.

Punk didn't choose to attack the beast in front of him immediately. He stepped back and opened up some distance from it. Then he carefully observed the characteristics of the beast and began to think of a plan to solve this unexpected problem.

With the help of the system and the thinking capacity of an official level mage, Punk immediately analyzed the three biggest doubts about the appearance of this beast.

First, these believers action of choosing to use the same desperate means was just too unified, but that could be explained by the fact that all of them had the same lower spider body, which might have been the part of the green spider at the beginning so they could transmit certain orders uniformly.

Then there was the determination of sacrificing themselves without hesitation. But it could also be explained as it was possible that crazy fanatics would sacrifice their lives for the so-called gods without hesitation. These fanatics' selflessness in front of their faith could sometimes reach a frightening point.

In the end, what puzzled Punk the most was their reaction speed. It was just too fast. It almost seemed like they have been waiting for this moment.

And the sense of expectation hidden in their eyes, where did it come from?

Did these crazy believers know that he would come?

And they had already prepared to go all out?
