Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?

Chapter 1445 894: Displaying Mad Fire in Public

The Mad Fire God Sect was watched by Gong Qiying as it grew up.This is indeed something you could say to it: "I held you when you were little."

As for when exactly he started noticing these matters, it was well before he came to Scameroon to establish a branch city.

At that time, Gong Qiying's energy was still focused on the Warrior Country, and the Battle Festival had yet to be held.

Because traces of Demon Clan havoc appeared in the suburbs surrounding the Imperial Capital—later proven to be a disturbance caused by the escape of Younka's experimental Monster—Sword Saint's daughter, Uffie, and others went out to investigate and encountered the Demon Clan, "Dorian," infected by the Mad Fire during the investigation.

At that time, Gong Qiying already locked onto Dorian's existence, dispatching Geng Ghost to follow that guy continuously, from then until now, Geng Ghost has worked without any rest.

After that, he watched as Dorian went from being alone to kidnapping Scameroon man Todd to start traveling as a duo, then fled to Scameroon Capital to found the Mad Fire God Sect and widely recruited followers, and then the Mad Fire God Sect developed to its current scale.

As a church hidden in the shadows of the Capital, one of its founders, Todd, knew very well that his church could never appear openly in front of outsiders under normal circumstances; it might even be treated as a cult-like existence, so he always insisted on acting low-key and never adopting an exaggerated style. Even recruiting followers was just to appease Dorian, without any grand ambitions of expanding the Mad Fire God Sect into something big and strong.

Yet, the current scale of the Mad Fire God Sect far exceeded Todd's expectations, making him doubt his own leadership abilities. Is it possible that he is truly a genius at spreading religion?

All of this stems from....

Gong Qiying made a move.

He just offered a little help, occasionally glancing at the development status of the Mad Fire God Sect, completely treating it like a potted plant, watering and cultivating at will.

As a result, he didn't expect the Mad Fire God Sect to be like a cactus, thriving beautifully with just a little rain and sunshine.

"A few days ago, I investigated on a whim, and the Mad Fire God Sect almost controls half of the Capital's sewers, attracting a large number of poor people, and even cultivating core followers. This is much better than wild churches all over the streets."

If Gong Qiying were to describe the impression of the Mad Fire God Sect in his mind, it would probably be summed up in two words:

Beggar's Gang.

This church, obviously tainted with evil elements, is somehow uniting the poor beggars together. In every dark corner of the street, there's probably a Mad Fire Preacher proselytizing.

It was upon noticing this that Gong Qiying began to truly pay attention to the Mad Fire God Sect.

This was an instance of unintended success, where something he casually fiddled with became a bomb cultivated in the heart of the Three Great Religions' stronghold!

"If used wisely, it might just become a key card."

Gong Qiying infused magic power into the glasses, which were magic tools, the images in the lenses flickering as they connected with Geng Ghost thousands of miles away.

It was after seeing the series of experiments conducted by Roger and others in Sain Dungeon that he realized that the Magicians' researched Envoy Demon technology could also be applied to Pokemon. As long as a contract and some ritualistic mumbo-jumbo are done, Pokemon can be turned into one's Envoy Demon.

As for the purpose of an Envoy Demon, it seems like it's no different from cultivating a pet that can help with work, just that an Envoy Demon can do much more than a typical pet.

However, the inconvenient thing about an Envoy Demon is that when he's in a Dungeon, he can't sense the Envoy Demons outside the Dungeon, only by going out like now can he sense the presence of the other.

While waiting to connect visions with Geng Ghost, he recalled his series of experiments on the Mad Fire God Sect.

It was just as Gong Qiying had initially intended to kill the Demon Clan member affected by Mad Fire when he discovered their altered mind.

The opportunity that changed his mind was due to something Dorian said in a confused state:

"Get some Mad Fire, when I get back, everyone gets some Mad Fire, hey, this is more exhilarating than the Abyss, more intense than the Demon King, hehe...."

It was these words that made Gong Qiying have Abbot Monster spit out the half-swallowed Dorian, deciding to observe him for a while.

In the days that followed, through Dorian's occasional ramblings, he learned a lot about this guy.

For instance, he knew Dorian was the Demon Clan member who had initially delivered the Fallen Demon Egg to the Light Eagle Group, had several collaborations with Eliphas, and also knew that the reason his mind was affected by the Mad Fire was that when Eliphas was attacked by the Mad Fire, he somehow shared vision with Eliphas, which led to him becoming the perpetually confused state of the present day.

Seeing that the kind of intense Mad Fire prepared for Eliphas didn't kill him, just made him mentally disturbed, made Gong Qiying have to admire the survival capability of the Demon Clan.

What made Gong Qiying more interested was the intelligence that the Demon Clan actually knew about the existence of Sain Dungeon, even aware of detailed information about something inside called the Abyss, and at the behest of some higher-up, they even dispatched several Demon Clan members like Dorian to infiltrate human society to investigate the Abyss.

Red Teeth once said that the Demon Clan's approach to and understanding of Dungeons is significantly different from humans, so perhaps it's not surprising that they know about Sain Dungeon's details?
