Chapter 105: Change of Faith (2/2)
Jom thought that he was talking with him, but then he turned around and realized that their gazes were fixed on the statue behind him.
“We have no way to repay the graces we have been given, because the grains we harvested have been turned into our flesh and blood, so now we sacrifice our blood to repay you, Great Marcolo! May we become of faithless blood and flesh once again!”
As he said this, he suddenly became ghastly pale, and his hair turned a shade of white, as if he had become older in a split second.
Not only was his blood being extracted, but something that couldn’t be described was taken away from him as well.
The other hunters weren’t any better off, most of them staggering and struggling to stay standing upright.
If Jom and Terry could see the HP bars of neutral units, they would be able to see that those of the hunters all dropped down to around a fifth of their original health.
“Fine, fine, I accept okay? Get yourself healed up, quickly!” Seeing a few of them even start showing signs of passing away from loss of blood, Jom immediately took out Coca Cola and fed it to them. “Terry, feed them all of your health potions too! These guys are crazy!”
Terry quickly finished his biscuit and fed Coca Cola to the hunters too.
Actually, regular bandages and tourniquets would have been useful for their current situation, but the players hadn’t brought any of those things because they had the blessing of the system. Without an inventory space to keep things in, a roll of bandage took up quite a bit of space.
“Thank you for accepting us…” Joey smiled weakly.
“Bull, if I didn’t speak up, you lot were going to die on me!” Jom replied angrily, and looked at their names on their heads.
The names were still yellow, meaning that they hadn’t become players.
It was at this point that Jom remembered that he had never told them that the players were from the church of the God of Games…
“So what do we do now?” Joey didn’t care about Jom’s grumbles, and asked with a smile, “Do we go to Trinia Forest with you guys? I heard you people say that you were going there at the festival…”
“Now, huh? Lemme think…” Jom rubbed his chin slightly, internally rejoicing that his weekly quest [The Lord’s Light Illuminates the Land] should be complete. “Basically, what we have to do now is go to the small town outside the Valley of the Tragic Dead and start doing chores.”
