"What the hell is going on here?"

The warrior was a bit frantic. He looked at the once magnificent but now terrifying building and couldn't help but voice his genuine feelings.

"I want to get out!"

Irene's sinister laughter faintly echoed in the Dungeon.

——————————

"Have you heard, the White Blood Dungeon has finally revived!"

"How so?"

"It mutated! There's a new area!"

Almost every Dungeon has an accompanying city, and White Blood Dungeon is no exception, although the city above seems more like a supply station for those living inside the Dungeon.

At this moment, the people staying in this city were discussing one thing: the latest new area appearing in the White Blood Church.

The place people called the White Blood Castle.

"A new area? That's good news! It's been a while since there was anything new, but is there a need to be this excited?"

An adventurer chatting with a friend couldn't understand why his friend was so excited. A new area could bring business opportunities, but was it really worth such excitement?

"Hehe, you haven't seen what the new area looks like, have you? Come, take a good look!"

The friend directly pulled out a photo and slapped it onto the adventurer's face. The latter, after seeing the full view of the White Blood Castle, paused for a moment and then exclaimed loudly:

"(Scameroon expletive) It looks so grand and classy!"

"Exactly, it looks too grand and classy!"

The friend looked eager. "This was definitely once a Vampire noble's residence, there must be a lot of good stuff inside, maybe even a living Vampire. I can't wait to go take a look, don't you want to?"

The adventurer immediately put his arm around his friend's shoulder and said: "Sure!"

The two then ran to a place where adventurers gathered and loudly called for teammates. The whole place was bustling with adventurers calling their friends, as lively as a hundred weddings happening simultaneously.

The emergence of a new area in any Dungeon would excite people, this was common knowledge, and the White Blood Dungeon was no exception.

"Will there be Vampires in there? My thesis this year is entirely focused on them."

"A suspected Blood Clan noble's castle? Worth a visit."

"Blood Clan's castle?"

Though there might not be many, White Blood Dungeon has a group of adventurers who particularly like it here, and they are quite interested in legends about Vampires. The maps that attract them the most are definitely the ones surrounded by various Blood Clan legends.

Unfortunately, Irene doesn't release many such areas because she doesn't remember many legends she can use and isn't good at making up stories herself.

It's a rather sad story.

The news of White Blood Dungeon's new area spread wider and wider, gradually reaching the nearby true cities, where everyone in the streets and alleys was discussing this topic.

At this moment, a common scene from Scameroon was playing out in the city— a bunch of citizens gathered around a missionary listening to his preaching.

Among the onlookers, few were probably genuinely religious; they were just waiting for the missionary to finish his speech and hand out eggs. There were actually two missionaries from different denominations preaching on the street simultaneously, their voices getting louder as if competing, making the scene quite noisy.

And the crowd gathered there occasionally moved between the two missionaries.

"The Holy Light God said that those who listen devoutly until the end can receive an extra box of premium eggs!"

The crowd started moving towards the Holy Light Church's missionary.

"Flame is a blessing to the world, and those who embrace the flame can enjoy a roasted lamb tonight!"

The crowd started moving towards the unaligned Flame missionary.

"The Holy Light God grants a full bath set at the Bathing Palace!"

The crowd started moving again.

"Divine Fire brings a massage at the Piaopiao Enchanting Demon Workshop!"

The crowd kept moving around.

The voices of both missionaries grew louder and more agitated, and it seemed like they might start directly throwing money soon, although it was more likely they would end up in a fight.

Just then, someone ran over shouting:

"White Blood Dungeon has a new map! It's related to Vampires!"

With a loud "whoosh," the people crowded there scattered like birds and beasts, all running towards the White Blood Dungeon with the person who shouted.

The once bustling street quickly became quiet and deserted. Only the two missionaries remained, standing there dumbfounded, even exchanging confused glances.

"What's wrong with everyone here?"

The Holy Light Church's missionary was so angry that he almost threw what he was holding to the ground, but then he suddenly remembered that these were precious eggs, and wasting food would condemn him to Sain, so he stopped his actions.

At his feet was the latest preaching machine developed by the Holy Light Church and applied on the preaching frontline, which had been working earlier.

Everything was going smoothly, attracting a batch of followers successfully, but then a missionary from some unfamiliar church came out from who knows where and disrupted the hypnotic effect created by the preaching machine with his loud voice, forcing him to keep offering benefits and wasting words.

And now, those citizens, upon hearing the news about the White Blood Dungeon, ran away!

"What did I do in this past hour, damn it...." The missionary began questioning his life.

But shortly after, he fiercely glared at the unaligned missionary beside him.

"Dare to go against the Holy Light Church, I'll remember you!"

Leaving a harsh word, the Holy Light Missionary picked up the preaching machine and walked away indignantly.

"Tch, so what if the church is powerful? Our Mad Fire... Divine Fire Theology will surpass you eventually!"

The younger missionary from the unaligned church huffed, adjusting the folds in his robe caused by the crowd.

A yellow flame-like symbol was revealed from underneath the folds.

"Today, even by throwing money around, I gained a few believers. Although it's not many, any progress is good, and the two Sect Leaders will definitely be happy."

The missionary clenched his fist.

"I must repay the Divine Teaching that saved me during the Hunger and bring more people to embrace the Divine Fire."

"In these chaotic times, only the Divine Fire, which does not actively participate in any conflict, is our most stable shelter."

"I'm sure my companions scattered across dozens of other cities are also preaching earnestly, so I must continue to work hard."

With the desire to help more people, the missionary, his eyes full of light, walked towards another bustling street.

"Come follow the Mad Fire... Divine Fire Theology. The Divine Fire has granted a delicious barbecue feast!"

He once again encountered the Holy Light Missionary, as expected.

"Did White Blood Dungeon come out with a new map again?"

In the crowd, a few Blood Clan members heard the news, exchanged glances, and then turned their steps, initially headed out of the city, back toward the White Blood Dungeon.

If this Dungeon, which they had lived in for so long, had begun to make updates and changes, they might consider staying here a bit longer.

"It's just a pity that our companions who have already left haven't heard this news."

A Blood Clan member sighed regretfully, saying:

"They should be on their way to the Capital by now, I wonder how the Holy Light Church will treat them. I'll wait for more news."

Those Blood Clan members who believed in the Holy Light Church were now traveling back to the Capital with the recruiters. It was said that the Capital was quite short of people, and going there would land you a high-ranking position, with particularly fast promotion.

Those Blood Clan members who stayed naturally had concerns about such words, though there were other reasons too.

"Since leaving, I always feel like my subconscious is warning me."

"Before, this never happened before..."
