Volume 1 Chapter 396

Chapter 396: So It’s You Again!

Clearly, Ling recognized the other person’s identity.

Furthermore, the person who came was mostly one of her "enemies" that she often dealt with.

She loosened her grip on the other person’s cheek, looked at Lolth, and showed a slightly apologetic expression.

"I’m sorry, Ms. Kululu, for getting you involved… and thank you for your help."

Without Lolth’s help, it was clear that these people would have died right there.

It could have even exploded and hurt her.

"It’s just a small effort," even though Lolth spent two magic scrolls, she didn’t feel sorry, "So… who are they really?"

Ling hesitated for a moment when she heard Lolth’s question.

"Cultist, I can only tell you that much."

She replied.

"Ah, it’s cultist."

Lolth looked at the several assassins, her expression instantly turned cold.

Hearing Lolth and Ling’s conversation, the cultists also started shouting excitedly.

"Nonsense cult! We worship the one, true god!"

"Foolish people, when our lord returns and takes his throne on the main plane, you will see just how foolish you are!"

"Witches of the Clean Spring Palace and the blasphemers of the Wizard Association, once the main position is restored, there will be no place for you in many realms!"

These people were very excited, seemingly forgetting that they were still frozen in ice.

At first, Lolth had some doubts about Ling’s judgment, but watching these people fit themselves into the situation, she had nothing to say.

This energy truly belonged to cultists; it was impossible to fake.

Lolth was quite familiar with these crazy guys.

No wonder she felt this energy was somewhat familiar earlier.

Although their aura was slightly different from that of The Final Church…

Overall, it felt quite similar.

It’s just that these people lacked the power of evil gods, which is why Lolth didn’t think of it right away.

But Lolth also understood that many followers of the evil god would not immediately use the Power of the Evil God.

After all, most cultists have the task of "hiding." These three men arrived with their faces covered, and if they were discovered, they were ready to self-destruct, clearly on a mission to keep their identities hidden.

The Ranster that Lolth met before also didn’t use the Power of the Evil God at first.

However, this brought up another problem.

That is, it is difficult to extract information from cultists.

Even though Lolth was not a true interrogator and had never performed even a single serious interrogation since taking the position…

At that time, to prevent giving himself away, Lolth prepared a bit of theoretical knowledge specifically to deal with the Demon King.

So Lolth knew very well…

Cultists, who are not very smart and have a bit of madness and obsession, can hardly communicate normally, let alone respond to threats or temptations.

Although it is easy to fish for information from them, they still might say amazing things.

But this is just like opening a box; it all depends on luck.

To make someone fully share the information they want, you need the right time, place, and people.

So Lolth thought for a bit and quickly entered a carefree state.

"I’m not good at dealing with cultists, and it seems like you know them well…"

"You decide how to handle them."

Lolth said as she spread her hands.

Ling nodded slightly.

She looked at a few cultists and was about to ask a question.

But before Ling could speak…

An overwhelming, decaying, and frenzied power, which filled both her and Lolth with great disgust, suddenly enveloped the room!

"Splash—"

Like a tidal wave, a blackish-gray sludge of "real magic" burst suddenly from all the cracks in the house.

This aura and its manifestation, without a doubt…

"Power of the Evil God!"

Lolth and Ling both recognized the source of this power.

The two of them frowned slightly, realizing something.

This group of cultists actually has accomplices and a backup plan!

Someone outside the house cast a dark spell and continued to attack here.

In an instant, the black and grey mud, smelling of decay, gathered in the center of the room to form a whirlpool.

While Lolth and Ling were still trying to figure out how to defend themselves without revealing their presence, the power of the evil god had already engulfed the ice block that trapped the three cultist assassins!

It was then that the two realized the true target was not them, but the cultists!

Of course… the power of the evil god could not take the three cultists away; its purpose was to crush them!

"Smash!"

The whirlpool of dark magic instantly shattered the three assassins.

In the final moments of their lives, Lolth and Ling watched clearly.

The faces of the three were not filled with panic or fear, but with a sense of "relief" and mockery towards the two of them.

Lolth couldn’t help but find it a little funny.

These guys really believe that one day they will be punished by their so-called master, when their master wakes up or returns, taking down the entire main plane and taking them down too!

They aren’t afraid of waiting for the evil god to come to the main plane; she dares to jump into the evil god’s Divine Kingdom, so why should she be afraid?

Although going to the evil god’s Divine Kingdom was just a rescue for someone else…

However, Lolth isn’t scared at all.

Even if these cultist masters truly came to the main plane… what does it have to do with her?

Her hometown is in the abyss!

Besides, is the God of Light just going to sit by idly?

So Lolth shook her head, watching the new type of Power of the Evil God that was gradually disappearing after devouring a few people, quietly noting the fluctuations of this Power of the Evil God.

Then, she looked out the window.

Lolth was troubled by something.

She wasn’t sure if she should go out and take a look.

According to the rule of not making matters worse, she shouldn’t go out, especially since the cultist seemed ready to leave.

But…

After all, it was a cultist.

Even if there was little hope of catching up, she should still check.

Just as Lolth was about to discuss this matter briefly with Ling, an extraordinary wave of energy came from outside.

"What is that? Causing trouble in our ‘Magic Forest’!"

A strong voice rang out, and then Lolth felt the floor of the inn shake slightly.

As if something had been turned on.

Approaching with a loud "boom."

The night grew quiet again.

Moments later, there was a knock on the door of the "White Poplar," where Lolth and Ling lived.

"Hello, ladies, have you gone to bed?"

"I am Lindsay Monroe Maple, the manager of the ‘Magic Forest Inn, South Sotua Silver Citadel branch.’ I would like to visit you, if that is alright?"
