A Comprehensive Network: An Endless Adventure Begins as a Wanderer

They traveled all the way.

Cheng Yi also enjoyed the exotic scenery along the way.

Originally, after Cheng Yi entered the Comprehensive Network, his expectations and longings included the idea of ​​experiencing the mysterious scenery of the vast otherworld.

Traveling through the heavens is so cool!

Unfortunately, I don't know if the designers of the dungeons on the web game have some kind of twisted sense of humor, but the dungeon environments are all more hellish than the last.

From the eerie Spider Cave to the filthy Merman Beach, and then to the sinister Demon Fortress.

Cheng Yi had hardly ever seen a normal place.

Besides, we're too busy killing monsters to appreciate the scenery properly.

The other dungeons are pretty much the same, either just ordinary forests or plains.

In contrast, the boundless fairy wilderness perfectly fulfilled Cheng Yi's fantasy of otherworldly scenery.

The light in the Fairy Wilderness is always that twilight, somewhere between light and shadow, like that brief moment when the sun has just set and the moon has not yet risen.

Every so often, fireflies twinkle in the wilderness.

Like colorful candles suspended in the air.

But it is more agile and mysterious.

When the wind blows, the entire wilderness emits a sound similar to a wind chime, crisp and ethereal.

Cheng Yi stopped and listened for a while, feeling that if this sound were recorded and uploaded to D-site, many ASMR streamers would lose their jobs.

This is the real other world!

To hell with those hellish landscapes!

Along the way, Cheng Yi encountered many creatures that resembled fairies, but none of these fairies noticed the hidden Cheng Yi.

It seems that mushroom is somewhat special.

Could it be innate true vision?

Cheng Yi kept this in mind and continued on his way.

He walked through a patch of low bushes, and a dark silhouette appeared on the distant horizon.

Cheng Yi crouched down, his figure disappearing into the shadow of a rock.

In his perception, several life forms appeared ahead, carrying a sense of conquest.

The Church of the Fathers of War.

Cheng Yi glanced down at the map and determined his location.

He had already entered the depths of the Fairy Wilderness.

Ahead was a small campsite, with faint lights shining through, illuminating the patterns on the tents.

Sword and hammer clashed in the flames.

It is the emblem of the Church of the Father of War.

Cheng Yi controlled the spider and made his way into the camp.

A small squad of five paladins, four of whom were resting by the fire.

There was also someone standing guard outside the tent.

Through the spider's vision, Cheng Yi looked at the faction aura on their bodies.

Then he noticed that four paladins were emanating a greyish-white light symbolizing Lawful Neutrality to Chaotic Neutrality. But above this white light, layers of scarlet shadows, some light and some dark, were cast.

This proves that they have recently engaged in some malicious activities, and their allegiance has shifted somewhat.

There was also a paladin sitting in the main seat, who looked like the captain of the squad.

When Cheng Yi looked over, he was somewhat speechless.

The paladin captain was radiating an aura that symbolized evil.

The paladin's allegiance has completely shifted.

However, given his position in the group, this paladin did not break his oath.

Perhaps this is what makes the oath of conquest so special?

Cheng Yi is not an expert on paladins and their oaths.

However, this is based on the faction detection ability that all paladins possess.

Cheng Yi felt that he probably wouldn't kill an innocent person by mistake...

------------

Omos sat by the campfire, quietly sipping a cup of Ammel black tea that had been shipped directly from the imperial capital.

As the most elite of the elite, the War Knights enjoy one of the highest levels of supplies in the entire empire, so a mere cup of black tea is nothing to them, even if it is very valuable.

As he sipped the piping hot, fragrant tea, Omos was feeling quite pleased with himself.

In the previous battle, he was brave and fearless, and thus earned the appreciation of a high-ranking priest.

Later, he received a secret manual from the archbishop, which further enhanced his strength. He was also promoted to squad leader and sent to the Fairy Wilderness to carry out more important missions.

Although there was some bias towards one side, Omos felt it was insignificant.

In his view, this would actually help him better fulfill his vow of conquest.

Moreover, within the church, factionalism has gradually become commonplace.

Omos closed his eyes, feeling the warm current flowing from his mouth into his limbs and bones.

This is simply the most pleasant thing to do in the wilderness.

No, I seem to have become a bit lax.

Omos was secretly alarmed.

After all, this wilderness is far from peaceful. There are fairies, and those annoying druids.

He was about to open his eyes, stand up, and patrol the area outside the camp.

Then Omos felt a sharp pain in his throat.

Enemy attack.

This was Omos's first thought.

He was about to roar out loud when he realized that his consciousness was gradually fading.

Damn it, I should have known better than to take off my throat guard while I was resting.

This was Omos's last thought.

------------

Cheng Yi easily slit the throat of the careless paladin captain with the nameless weapon.

All I can say is that he was, after all, a paladin.

In the instant the captain was discovered to have been stabbed

Although no assassin was found, four roars powerful enough to shatter one's mind still erupted.

[Network notification: You have been affected by a fearful rebuke]

[Perception exemption verification is underway]

Based on skill stacking, the difficulty of this saving throw check is rated as: Extremely Difficult.

He rebuked them with utter sternness.

The signature skill of the Conqueror Paladin.

The Conqueror Paladin can unleash a terrifying roar that intimidates enemies and forces them to make a Perception saving throw.

If the check fails, the enemy will panic and will be at a disadvantage on attack checks against the paladin for one minute afterward.

Furthermore, this skill can be combined with the Conqueror's [Conqueror's Aura] to continuously inflict massive amounts of psychological damage on panicked enemies.

Although Cheng Yi's perception attribute was not low, he was not confident that he could remain unharmed under the combined intimidating shouts of four holy warriors.

So he decisively used the secondary legendary resistance.

[Based on magical effects: minor legendary resistance, you have successfully passed this saving throw.]

A flash of golden light appeared on Cheng Yi's body, showing that he was completely unaffected by the intimidating rebuke.

"Advanced cloaking!"

Faced with the enemy who had vanished without a trace, the paladins realized something was amiss, and one of the older paladins shouted out.

Only after shouting did he realize that the only one prepared to see through the invisibility spell was the captain, who was already lying on the ground.

Then there's no suspense at all.

Although it is four against one, it is still a battle between the tangible and the intangible.

The Holy Slash is powerful, but it's useless if you can't find the enemy.

Cheng Yi placed the nameless figure on the neck of the last surviving paladin.

In the previous alignment aura vision, this paladin was the only one whose alignment aura was slightly biased towards good.

Now, his eyes held both fear of the person before him and a hint of relief at finally being free.

"Now, I'll ask, and you'll answer."
