Chapter 52: Underground Sewers (2/2)
After all, if they died because they were defeating evil cultists, they could still have died in honor, and perhaps even enter their god’s Divine Kingdom after they died. But if they died from a random reason like miasma or poisonous gas before even getting involved in combat, what would they have died for? For cleaning the sewers? Their god would probably be the first to come and smack them for being an embarrassment…
As for the lord of the city that conserved his forces so that he would not be overwhelmed by any of the large churches, he would definitely not do something that was synonymous with cutting off his own arms.
And so, this strange underground sewage system was preserved until now, becoming a thorn in the side of Lancaster’s recovery.
“At the beginning of your exploration, you may receive a Blank Map that will automatically record the places you have walked through, and upload it to the records kept by the God of Games, earning you AP. You can also use AP to buy the newest map from me.”
Leah shared the crude map system that Xi Wei rushed to make to the players, then switched off story mode. “You may start your exploration now!”
And so the players who had already become impatient cheered, most of them immediately grouping into parties and leaving to explore the underground sewers.
Only a small amount of players stayed by to ask Leah about the buff skills they could activate here.
Seeing almost 60% of the players start right away, Leah sighed in relief.
She hadn’t had any contact with any of the players before this, so they could only be counted as strangers with the players. They might nod at each other in greeting purely out of the merit that they believed in the same god, but that was about it.
In comparison, she would rather give her trust in the hands of the people she knew and trusted.
“Even though a lot of the players look like they can’t be counted on, but at least Mr. Marni is here…”
Marni’s competence while they were at Wickidor in successfully bringing back a hundred refugees to the unnamed town gave her confidence in this shabby-looking man.
If it were him, maybe he could be the first to discover the Rotten Bones Church hideout!

Princess Leah: “…”
“Wow, Marni died again!”
“How inhumane!”
“Is no one roasting his death method?”
“Why roast him? It’s a creative way to die!”
The players left behind all laughed and joked around.
Immediately, the temporary warp point was filled with a cheery atmosphere.
Even though the number of players that died in strange and funny ways wasn’t low, a lot of players were still exploring the sewer carefully. After all, 2% of EXP was still EXP, and if they were disqualified from the quest by dropping to Level 4 they would probably cry…
And so, the mysterious underground sewers of Lancaster slowly showed its true form under the map made by Xi Wei.
Hahaha he keeps dying
