Chapter 1179 - Trouble At The Ivory Tower

As Qiu Yue settled the matters of the Dungeon World, Rex decided to give Jin a courtesy update. "Ah, I see. Thanks Rex. Really appreciate what you are doing. I would have personally advised on the matter but it looks like my clones could only do so much."

"A pleasure. So, how is your endeavour in the Virtual Reality Instance? Making much progress?" Rex queried for the sake of getting the conversation going a little but also hoping that it would not be too much of a drag. Besides, both of them clearly had agendas to fulfil for the day.

"The Symposium is in less than two weeks time but the Virtual Reality Instance is ready, including the accessories needed like the Virtual Reality Headset to access it," Jin said as he was extremely relieved how fast and efficiently the engineers at Sea Mesh were able to smoothen out the kinks in the Virtual Reality Headset. The only problem was settling on a name for it. Some wanted to call it simply VR Gear, but a few of the engineers felt it needed a more fanciful name.

There was even one who proposed to make a limited edition Panda version of the Headgear to promote Dungeons and Panda even further. While it was not a bad idea, Jin felt it should be placed on hold temporarily as he wanted to be seen as practical rather than the possibility of it being a cash grab. (Even though the systems in place would eventually be a cash grab.)

"Also, I heard your sworn brother had already gone off fighting to his delight." Jin questioned since he only received a message from Pei that she would be busy dealing with a 'crafty' situation.

"Speaking of him, I do not have much information since he said he was hitting the Church of the Afterlife's Bank. An Ivory Tower of some sort." Rex commented and the System instinctively connected Kraft into the whole conversation.

"What's up?" The Old Fox said as there were lots of background commotion at his end.

"Brother Kraft, how's the raid going?" Rex asked but all they heard was his laughter.

"Excellent! In fact, we have yet to breach into the Ivory Tower itself despite a day of fighting. Looks like we had been subjected to mere insects from the Church of the Afterlife. System, give them a glimpse of my situation." Kraft requested and immediately the System pulled out live footage via Kraft's vision. Surprisingly, there was a bit of lag in the transmission and the System attributed to Kraft's peripheral vision to be wider than normal.

When Rex and Jin saw the battlefield, they were stunned by the number of enemies in the area as well as how strong they looked. Not only there were Church Knights that had been documented into the System's Database through the military coup but variant versions of them in stronger armour and weapons. Items that are considered to be 'mythical grade and above" or that was how the captured Church Knights had dubbed them.

"It's irritating because the moment you thought you killed them, they would revive back again. I thought the System just did not bother to catch them but it seems like each and every one of them have some relic item that allows them to instantly resurrect the moment their heart stops beating despite being slashed into pieces." Kraft said as he gave a first person perspective of crushing the skull of a Church Knight and letting him go. In less than a few seconds later, he was able to walk again with a crushed skull.

"Zombies?" Jin questioned and Kraft shook his head.

"I pulled their limbs apart to check whether they were androids as well but they were still able to move after replacing their displaced parts into their original position. It is some magic I could not identify. But hey, from what I see on the Ivory Tower's counter, we are earning quite a fair bit of gold."

"I suggest we just head straight into the Ivory Tower and earn better money." Pei interrupted the conversation and Kraft beckoned Pei to say hi to Rex and Jin. Naturally, she ignored and continued to slice things apart.

"But it would not be satisfying, in fact, it would leave me wanting to know what the hell is going on with these buggers." Kraft pouted.

"Should I connect this to Moloch and see if he knows anything?" Jin asked and the System once again took the initiative to get Moloch on board the conversation. Upon seeing the works of the Church Knights, he already deduced that they were at the Ivory Tower.

"If Kraft had already noticed, the Ivory Tower has its own unique Dungeon Core and they had designated that area outside the Ivory Tower with a very special spell that only this particular Church has. After all, it's their money warehouse, they have to be more protective with it."

"What is it?" Jin pressed for the answer since Moloch was going round and round.

"Immortal Domain. The Church Knights in that area are affected by the curse of immortality. They sacrifice their sanity for the defence of the Ivory Tower. You might think only hardcore cultists would protect it like crazy but trust me, I heard rumours that they used criminals, brainwash them and subsequently stripped them of their rights. Since execution is technically useless in the world full of resurrection, the Church of the Afterlife turned them this way." Moloch explained.

"As for how some of the boy parts returning together, those are the works of the items and accessories they possessed," Moloch said and suddenly that gave Kraft a wonderful idea.

"Guys, change of plans. Once you bring down a Church Knight. Confiscate their armour, items and whatever shit they had on them. If this is a battlefield, the spoils belong to us no matter what.. The dungeon dollars are just the tip of the iceberg!" Kraft said and the people in the conversation understood his meaning.
