Evil God? My servants are players!

"Divine Judgment!" Veronica descended from the sky and with a single move, she made the mutated bishop stagger.

Seeing Veronica descend like a goddess, directly defeating the arrogant mutated bishop, the man, barely hanging on, cried out in alarm:

"Who is this NPC overlord?! I've never seen him before!"

Upon seeing Veronica's appearance, the Phase Man suddenly seemed to remember something and said:

"Holy crap! So this boss fight was just a stalling battle all along! They were trying to drag it out until the NPCs came to the rescue!"

However, no one responded to Phase Man's comment, because while Quanxian Bangua was still marveling at how beautiful the newly appeared NPC models were, Travel Frog and Train King had long been sent back to the altar.

The Frost Adventurers' reaction was even greater than that of the players.

As Veronica charged, the thief seized the opportunity to rescue the warrior.

At that moment, the priest was healing the warrior while holding him and weeping bitterly. The warrior weakly reached out and wiped away the priest's tears.

Then he looked at Veronica, who was fighting the bishop:

"Is that the paladin?"

"Yes, we shouldn't have to worry now. I heard that the paladin was the one who resolved the strange incident in Hamlet Town last time."

Sasha put away his badly worn bow and stood beside the warrior, explaining.

The thief then swiftly appeared beside the team member and said:

"Aren't we going to help?"

"Help? I don't think I need it." Sasha looked at the figure who was fighting.

At this moment, Veronica was pressing the mutated bishop's attack, bombarding him with all sorts of attacks and forcing him to retreat repeatedly.

The bishop could only rely on his massive body and high health to barely hold on against Veronica's attacks and prevent himself from dying too quickly.

Meanwhile, the players were frantically testing the limits, seemingly trying to inflict more damage and gain more experience points later.

Sasha saw that the bishop's defeat was inevitable, and that Veronica, as the rightful heir, should be able to command the guards present.

Sasha finally breathed a sigh of relief. In her opinion, the matter of Hamlet Town was basically resolved. All that was left was for Veronica to deal with the bishop and take over the guards.

Finally, we just need to find out who this so-called Earl Hamlet is.

At this point, Sasha began to pay attention to the players' condition.

Sasha first turned her gaze to the warriors, then looked at the other members, and then she chuckled softly:

"That's finally over, but everyone's had a tough time!"

Although the Frost Adventurers did not suffer any obvious external injuries thanks to the players' help, their equipment was in complete disarray.

With Sasha's reminder, the team members also noticed their own condition.

Sasha was alright, as an archer she had some hard armor, while the priest, wearing infantry armor, was already showing a bit of skin.

"Don't look!" The pastor quickly covered his body upon seeing this.

The pastor's behavior made everyone burst into laughter.

Seeing that the bishop was about to give up, and with the guards and soldiers around him not reacting, Sasha even had the leisure to talk about the future.

"This crisis is over. What are everyone's plans for the future?"

"Aren't we going to rescue the captain?" the pastor asked, regaining his senses.

"From what my sister said, although she is not in danger and is doing well, she won't be able to get out anytime soon."

"I can't keep you bound by this forever. I plan to settle in Hamlet Town and wait for my sister to come out. You can go wherever you want."

Sasha waved his hand, pretending to be very magnanimous.

"Is the vice-captain trying to get rid of us? I never said I wanted to leave," the thief replied sarcastically.

"I'm staying too! Shall we form an adventure team for life?!" The priest's words were heavy, putting pressure on everyone else.

"I have no choice but to stay. After all, given my intelligence, not many adventure teams would be willing to take me in," the recovered warrior said, rubbing his head as he stood up.

"You...!" Sasha uttered just two words, as if she had said nothing at all, yet also as if she had said everything.

At this moment, the tough-skinned bishop finally collapsed, his body crashing down onto a building.

The loud noise seemed to be a celebration of the camaraderie among the Ice Adventurers.

Bishop: What else is there to say? I'll just die, won't I?

Veronica, who had been flying around, finally landed on the ground. She did not approach or try to recruit the strange soldiers who were still standing still.

What Veronica needs most right now is to understand the situation:

What's the deal with those soldiers? And what about the 'righteous' undead who just helped? What exactly happened in Hamlet Town?

As the only normal people present, the Frost Adventurers naturally became the subjects of Veronica's questioning.

After all, those spirits who were commenting on the bishop's corpse were obviously unreliable.

But Veronica, standing in front of the adventure team, was speechless; she didn't know where to begin.

Finally, Veronica organized her thoughts and asked:

"Can you tell me what exactly happened here?"

Although Sasha hadn't expected Veronica to know nothing, Sasha still told Veronica what she knew.

This includes the Earl's replacement, the current state of Hamlet Town, and the fact that those righteous undead are actually allies.

"So, my lord, all you need to do is deal with the count!" Sasha suddenly covered her mouth after saying this.

After all, this statement was far too abstract for Veronica, like instigating someone to kill their father.

Veronica ignored Sasha's words and actions, and instead pointed at the guards, saying:

"Recruit the guards? They don't seem like the type to be recruited."

Then Veronica turned to Sasha and asked:

"Do you know what ceremony the Earl of Hamlet is initiating?"

Veronica spoke calmly, as if the Earl of Hamlet she was referring to had nothing to do with her.

Sasha was stumped by the two questions and turned to look at the guards.

The guards looked dazed, as if they had lost their thoughts and souls, and Sasha knew nothing about the count's ceremony.

All she knew was that the Count was using something produced by the anomaly in the dungeon to initiate a ritual, so Sasha added:

"The count's ritual seems to be related to the anomalies in the dungeon."

"Is that so..." Veronica suddenly realized something after hearing this.

Veronica had also witnessed the anomalies in the Sien Dungeon, and she had also read reports from adventurers about the anomalies in the dungeon.

They knew that the anomalies in the dungeon seemed to allow inanimate objects to be "resurrected".

The butler's words echoed in Veronica's ears once again.

The count had not recovered from his madness; he had simply found something else to satisfy his insane desires.

Veronica sighed. She had already guessed the truth behind the ritual; it was most likely just another attempt to resurrect her mother.

Although the guards’ strange behavior still puzzled Veronica, she decided to deal with Count Hamlet first.

"Take care, I'm going to deal with the Earl now."
