MMORPG: The Almighty Ring Chapter 590 – Digging the Pope’s Tomb

Of course, the reason why Jiang Fei wanted to participate in this competition was not for the prizes or the champion title. He was participating in the competition for a very simple reason. It was likely that the guy with more than two million Health Points had obtained the Treasured Cauldron of the Ancient Kingdom that boosted the Vitality attribute.

Other than the fact that this guy had obtained a 100,000 Vitality attribute bonus, Jiang Fei could not think of any other reasons why a player with only tens of thousands of Health Points could suddenly become a boss with two million Health Points.

Therefore, in Jiang Fei’s view, this rising star among the professional players had most probably obtained the Treasured Cauldron, which gave a lot of Vitality. Only because of this, he could have such an amazing amount of Health Points.

Since someone had already obtained the Treasured Cauldron, Jiang Fei believed that other Treasured Cauldrons would also appear one after another. In this case, players who have obtained the Treasured Cauldron were likely to be attracted to the competition. After all, the players who had the Treasured Cauldron had the ability to bully other players easily. So, if they participated in the competition, fame and fortune were almost certainly guaranteed. There was probably no one player who could withstand such a temptation.

This was why Jiang Fei was so interested in this competition. Truth to be told, he was not interested in the competition itself but the Treasured Cauldrons in the hands of those players.

Although the preliminaries of the professional competition had already begun, someone like Jiang Fei naturally did not need to participate in the preliminaries. After Rosette Rose helped him sign up, the organizer gladly made Jiang Fei a seeded player. After all, Verdure Glider was already almost the idol of all the players in the Dark Faction.

Since the preliminaries would go on for a while, Jiang Fei did not have to participate in the competition during this period of time. Since he had so much free time, Jiang Fei thought about the other Holy Item in his hands.

Pope’s Tomb (Treasure Map, Holy Item)

Use: Shows you the way to the tomb of the past popes.

This Treasure Map was said to be one of the strongest Treasure Maps in the whole game. It was related to the tomb of the past popes and the treasures buried within were definitely worth a lot of money.

Previously, Jiang Fei was not strong enough, so he did not dare to take action. Now, however, his Level had soared to 76 and he had completely updated his equipment. The most important thing was that Jiang Fei also had the Dragon’s Bane now. This made Jiang Fei very confident.

In order to dig the Pope’s Tomb, Jiang Fei had to bring some masters to accompany him. Isabella definitely had to come with him. Regardless of whether it was her identity as Jiang Fei’s pet or her identity as the Nephilim little princess, there was no way Isabella could be absent when it came to digging the Pope’s Tomb.

In addition to Isabella, Jiang Fei also intended to bring the Mermaid Princess, Ariel. Even though Ariel was not an Overlord, she was still a High-Lord and her combat power should not be underestimated.

However, it was inconvenient for three of Jiang Fei’s most powerful combatants, Mulan, Sylphy, and Nina, to go with him. Although they were the strongest fighters, they all used to belong to the Luminous Church. If Jiang Fei brought them to dig the tomb of popes, even if these girls did not say anything, he would still feel very bad for them.

After deciding on the candidates, Jiang Fei told the girls his plan. Isabella naturally raised her hands in favor. How could she possibly not be counted in when it came to something like digging the Pope’s Tomb?

Ariel did not care actually about digging the Pope’s Tomb. She was just very happy that she was able to go on an adventure with the one she loved. As for the three girls that were once in the Luminous Church, they were also very grateful to Jiang Fei for being considerate. After all, they all came from the Luminous Church. Even though they had now separated from the Luminous Church, they were still somewhat emotionally attached. If Jiang Fei asked them to dig the Pope’s Tomb, the three girls would be in a difficult position.

“Okay! You three stay here and take care of the house, we won’t forget about you if we find some good stuff!” Jiang Fei said to Nina and the other two girls.

“Mmm! Be careful, husband!” Even though she was once the Saint of the Light and she was quite close to the Pope, an old man who was arbitrarily dictatorial was definitely not as important as her lover. So, although Jiang Fei was going to dig the Pope’s Tomb, Nina did not show any discomfort at all.

The Pope’s Tomb was not in the Faction area, but the main city. So, after making up their minds, Jiang Fei and the two girls instantly teleported back to Dawnlight City from the Demon Flame Fortress.

“Fortunately, the popes did not bury themselves in the hinterland of the Light Faction!” Jiang Fei muttered. If the Pope’s Tomb was in the hinterland of the Light Faction, then he would not be able to do anything.

One had to know that as soon as Jiang Fei entered the territory of the Light Faction, his movements would be reported in real time. Although he was not worried about the threat that ordinary players posed, he would not be able to handle the NPCs from the Church Judiciary.

After returning to Dawnlight City, Jiang Fei discovered that it was extremely deserted. There were only a few players who were around Level 10 to 20 running around. The mainstream players had already entered the Faction area. Now, the four main cities had become four super Beginner’s Villages.

“Let’s go!” Jiang Fei said to Isabella and Ariel after summoning the Juvenile Skygliding Dragon.

“Yeah!” The two women nodded and sat next to Jiang Fei.

Then, the Juvenile Skygliding Dragon took off and flew to the coordinates of the Treasure Map.

The Pope’s Tomb was located in the middle of the four main cities. It was a majestic mountain with great heights, the highest mountain in the main city area. It was regarded by the Luminous Church as the holy mountain where the Divine Light God was born.

The Pope’s Tomb was on this holy mountain, but very few people knew the specific location. However, for Jiang Fei who had the Holy Item Treasure Map, the location of the Pope’s Tomb was no longer a secret.

It was a long journey. Jiang Fei and the two girls flew for around three to four hours before they arrived at the holy mountain.

“We have to be careful!” Although this place was not within the Faction area, Jiang Fei did not have to worry about real-time reporting. However, as it was the holy mountain of the Luminous Church, there were still many guards here. If their movements got exposed, the masters of the Luminous Church would probably get here very quickly.

When they were still a distance away from the holy mountain, Jiang Fei landed and kept the Juvenile Skygliding Dragon. Then, Isabella activated Hidden Shadow and the three of them quietly approached the holy mountain.

Although they had the Treasure Map to guide them, they had never been to the holy mountain before. So, they moved forward pretty slowly. Moreover, they had to avoid the sentinels who were patrolling the area. After about an hour, they were finally halfway up the holy mountain.

“According to the directions on the Treasure Map, the entrance should be nearby. Let’s look for it carefully!” Jiang Fei lowered his voice and said to the two girls.

“Mmm!” Isabella and Ariel nodded and the three of them began to look around carefully.

“Husband, come and see this!” After about five minutes, Ariel waved to Jiang Fei.

“Okay!” Jiang Fei and Isabella quickly rushed to Ariel’s side. There was a big tree not far from Ariel. In Jiang Fei’s eyes, the big tree looked extremely ordinary, but Isabella and Ariel could feel unusual magical fluctuations from the big tree.
