Fingerley hastily jumped in to rescue people, but in the end, he only managed to save four people, including Tusi, while the rest died battling the Deep Bishop.
"[Big Fireball]!"
Fingerley cast Magic to sweep away the heap of Deep Bishops here, but his brain was damaged, causing his Magic to be unpredictable. The Mid-tier [Big Fireball] suddenly turned into King Tier Magic [Fire Burning], and in an instant, fierce flas engulfed the Bishop. The sudden drain of Magic Power made him go montarily blind, nearly causing him to collapse.
People still didn’t know why the Bone Stick Team suddenly encountered so many Deep Bishops, but thinking about it was pointless now. Including the bishops burned just now, the enemies were down to single digits...
Fingerley felt sothing, drank Magic Potion, and looked toward Elderly’s coffin.
Without the candlelight from the bishops, the entire area plunged into darkness again, but tiny candle flas appeared in the dark once more.
"Clang..." Fingerley’s hand trembled, and the Magic Potion fell to the ground.
"Hey, hey, seriously, how do they revive?"
The area was reilluminated, aning the revival of the Deep Bishop group!
The bishops previously killed now appeared intact again, and their numbers seed to have increased. A red light moved around the Bishops, not entirely hidden but easily overlooked.
"Immortal? No, there must be sothing we haven’t discovered!"
Fingerley stared at Elderly’s coffin. Could it be that the coffin granted the Deep Bishops the power to revive?
He wanted to order an attack on the coffin but hadn’t spoken when he saw the Deep Bishops suddenly link with nearby bishops, collectively brandishing their weapons.
The next mont, red flas, black deepness, white Original Force... various "Magic" appeared here, exceeding their previous slow pace, eagerly assaulting everyone.
Magic filled the sky; this was the Deep Bishops’ passionate Combination Skill!

"Retreat!"
Hasavi Team excelled in combat and defense, but faced with a sky full of Magic, Matilda couldn’t guarantee her armor could withstand it, opting for a conservative strategy.
Deep Bishops supported each other, creating stronger and faster Magic, including offensive and auxiliary Magic. Despite slow casting speed, once their Magic attacks chain, they are quite formidable.
But that’s not the main point.
The focus is on an obscure dark purple Magic they’ve unleashed, which never appeared in the Dark Souls ga. Its effect is simple — accumulate [Horror], like the roar of a headless Lion Ape. Any adventurer overly exposed to this dark purple Magic would experience Leon’s predicant from that day.
[System Part Two: Dark purple Magic accumulates "Horror" state]
Gong Qiying added this system to counter those defensive players. It aptly targets Shield Stab, essentially forcing adventurers to stay completely focused, noting both regular and dark purple Magic.
Maintain high tension; it’s a thod of draining spiritual power. Besides, the original Deep Bishop group was pathetically weak.
Once the Horror state hits full scale...
"Ahhh!"
One Shield Guard from the Bone Stick Team relied on the Magic Shield to withstand attacks from the Deep Bishops. Even after getting hurt, swallowed Physical Potion like crazy. If he didn’t get hit by the Horror state, no one would.
In his eyes, the world suddenly turned into a black ocean, but upon closer inspection, it wasn’t an ocean but sothing strikingly similar to Elderly’s rotten flesh.
Wait, that is Deep Saint Elderly!
Shield Guard watched himself get devoured by Elderly piece by piece, realizing this "Saint" is actually a cannibalistic maniac!
The sound of ripping flesh, the crunching teeth—together, these sounds could drive one insane!
Only at this mont did he understand the Path of Living Sacrifice exists for Elderly.
"What’s wrong with you!"
Tusi found his companion down, rushed over to check, saw his body trembling, foaming at the mouth, looking on the verge of death.
Elsewhere, Matilda threw Fingerley into the air, successfully piercing Deep Bishops’ coffin with Calia Piercing, followed by a blow from the Highmore Hamr.
The coffin shuddered, the Bishops’ bodies quivered.
"Did it work?"
Fingerley barely smiled when he saw Deep Bishops regain action, ignoring him completely.
The rotten flesh attached to the coffin peeled off due to his attack, forming twisted, crawling humanoids on the ground, launching attacks at adventurers.
He guessed wrong; the coffin was not the key to Deep Bishops’ revival.
"Then why is this happening?"
The prolonged battle seed to further boost the Bishops’ Magic power, resembling a deep Magic rain.
The bishops’ incessant whispers echoed in the chapel, the eerie atmosphere growing thicker.
Matilda’s armor beca dented, consud rapidly, unable to auto-repair in ti.
Fingerley’s dual blades were worn out; he used the last Repair Light Powder. Aleya glanced at her withered seed bag, heart aching.
In tis of such crisis, Fingerley’s focus beca sharper, frantically seeking ways out of the predicant.
And then he saw a red light.
The red light stread from the bishop he had slain into the crowd.
"No revival?"
Glancing around, after killing a bishop, a new one would erge from the darkness, except after killing the red-light-emitting bishop, no new bishop appeared.
"Red Light! Kill the enemy with the red light in their chest!"
People trusted him implicitly, promptly searching for the red-light-emitting bishops. Once found, the red light stood out distinctly.
One after another, bishops ceased to revive; areas where red light could flee beca increasingly limited.
"Die!" Tusi targeted the red light, in a flash reaching the bishop.
However, this bishop’s attire was different.
Other bishops wore red or purple robes, but this one, appearing before Tusi, donned white clothes and a white crown, holding a scepter symbolizing authority.

[System Part Four: After the Archbishop’s appearance, all Deep Bishops collectively charge to unleash an arena-clearing Big Move with instant death effects]
These systems faithfully mirror the original work, albeit the Big Move’s appearance timing is advanced.
Deep Bishops raised their weapons, black aura erged from them, forming oppressive dark clouds skyward.
Every adventurer felt impending doom approaching their hearts.
