The silhouette of Nie Yan was completely hidden in the darkness, watching every move of the group of white elf mages opposite him. He noticed that, apart from these white elf mages, there seemed to be no other creatures present here.
Nie Yan continued to wait patiently, searching the official website for keywords like Moonlight Sanctuary and Betrayer. Occasionally, the official website would release some background information about quests, although it was only background material. The specific details of the quests still had to be figured out by the players themselves.
The Moonlight Sanctuary was created by the remnants of the white elves to imprison demons. Using the power of Moonstone, they had reversed time and space, creating another dimension to trap the demons. Due to ancient intermarriage among races, some white elves carried hidden bloodlines of dark elves and humans. They became greedy and brutal, betraying their faith in the Moonlight Goddess of the Elven race. Some even became demonized, turning into ruthless killing machines, even slaughtering their own kin.
The white elves had no choice but to expend significant effort to deal with these mutated kin, sealing them away with Moonstone.
Nie Yan then searched for the keyword Sonia Moonlight Grove.
The data showed: Sonia Moonlight Grove. Sonia had once been the queen of the Carol branch of the white elves. Kind and gentle, she led her lineage of white elves toward prosperity and strength, until the demon hidden within her awakened. The situation deteriorated rapidly. She became brutal and bloodthirsty, slaughtering several elders of the clan, forcing the white elves to band together and seal Sonia into the Moonstone.
Time passed like the sea drying and the land changing, and centuries had already passed.
Regarding demonization, it was a form of mutation. Ancient legends told that within every creature in the land of Atlantis lurked a demon. When your faith wavered and was not strong enough, they would begin to consume your mind, transforming you into a powerful demon.
Demonized elites and lords were extremely powerful, possessing strength even more terrifying than super mutation.
Could it be that there was a demonized elite or lord within this map—the legendary Queen Sonia of the Carol line of the white elves?
Nie Yan’s gaze pierced through the tent, landing on the Chapter of Benevolence!
Perhaps there were some special methods here to trigger a quest, such as talking to the white elves ahead. But Nie Yan did not want to take that risk. His eyes locked onto the Chapter of Benevolence, quietly floating there.
Take it!
A strong desire surged in Nie Yan’s heart. With the skill of Void Invisibility, it should be no problem to avoid these white elf mages and obtain the Chapter of Benevolence!
Once he obtained the Chapter of Benevolence, he would have completed the first volume!
This legendary item would forever belong to him!
Nie Yan looked at the sleeping girl beside the Chapter of Benevolence. She was likely the elven queen Sonia!
She was a demonized lord!
Nie Yan weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
If he took the Chapter of Benevolence and the elven queen Sonia awoke, since teleportation was impossible within the Moonlight Sanctuary, Nie Yan might face death.
Nie Yan checked his wanted status—327 kills. With a wanted status this severe, if he died, he would probably lose over ten levels!
Nie Yan gave a bitter smile. He wished he had cleared his wanted status before coming here!
Looking at the Chapter of Benevolence ahead—should he take it or not? Although conflicted, Nie Yan quickly decided. Forget about the quest, he would take the Chapter of Benevolence first! Level loss could be regained later. What was there to fear?
Nie Yan activated Vanish and slowly crept toward the tent, getting closer and closer to the five white elf mages.
One of the white elf mages perked up his ears and twitched slightly, as if sensing something.
Nie Yan quickly activated Void Invisibility, significantly enhancing his stealth.
The white elf mage noticed nothing and returned to normal.
After activating Void Invisibility, Nie Yan moved very slowly past the white elf mages, finally hearing clearly what they were saying.
Betrayer Kasa glanced toward the tent direction and said, “I wonder how long the holy power of the Chapter of Benevolence can last. I hope Queen Sonia can continue to sleep peacefully.” He still felt a lingering fear of the violent queen upon awakening.
Betrayer Georgiana looked worried, “Unless we can find Purification Water, we cannot lift the queen’s seal and escape this Moonlight Sanctuary.”
Betrayer Zira sighed and shook his head, “With our strength, we cannot find the Purification Water. It is located in the Dark Canyon. Unless we find a human archmage, but the human archmage would kill her.”
Betrayer Kasa said, “We can only wait for a miracle.”
Listening to these quest-related dialogues, Nie Yan understood. Following the normal procedure, he might have to obtain the quest from these five white elf mages and complete it before safely taking the Chapter of Benevolence. One condition of the quest was to find the Purification Water!
This quest seemed difficult, and the goal was to revive a demonized lord, which was extremely dangerous.
If another player came here, they would definitely follow the procedure, completing the quest before obtaining the Chapter of Benevolence. Otherwise, even if they took it, they would lose it upon death. But Nie Yan was different. He already had five Chapters of Order. Obtaining the Chapter of Benevolence would complete the first volume, binding it directly. Therefore, skipping the quest was not a problem, at worst, he might just die once.
As long as he could obtain the Chapter of Benevolence, it would be worth it!
Nie Yan bypassed the white elf mages and crept into the tent.
Upon entering the tent, a rich floral fragrance filled his nose, invigorating him. His gaze fell on the female elf lying on the bed beside him, and his breath caught.
She was exquisitely beautiful, beyond earthly beauty. Her seductive, enchanting face resembled a sculpture of a mermaid from legends, flawless. Her pointed ears gave her an alluring charm, making it hard for anyone to look away. Looking further down, the sight was enough to make one’s heart race. She wore only a vine-woven chest guard and skirt, an outfit unique to elves, revealing large areas of snow-white, crystal-clear skin that shimmered with a jade-like glow.
Nie Yan cast a Super Insight on her.
Elf Sonia (Demonized Lord): Level 35, HP 120000/120000.
Just as he had suspected, a powerful demonized lord!
Nie Yan glanced at her and then averted his gaze. No matter how beautiful an NPC was in the game, she was still an illusion. Moreover, Sonia was merely a boss-level demonized lord. Once a person had a mature mindset, they would not be swayed by such things.
The Chapter of Benevolence was now within arm’s reach!
Nie Yan could almost feel the powerful magical energy emanating from the Chapter of Benevolence.
It was a holy and mighty magical force!
Preparing to escape, Nie Yan reached out and grabbed the Chapter of Benevolence. As he grasped it, its glow immediately faded, returning to its original plain appearance, now in Nie Yan’s hand.
The Chapter of Benevolence was obtained. Nie Yan quickly glanced at its attributes.
Chapter of Benevolence: Volume I, Chapter II of the Chapters of Order. (Legendary Fragment)

The Chapter of Benevolence was second only to the Chapter of Justice. A skill like Judgment of the End was almost an instant-kill ability. As for Divine Judgment, it was even more powerful. The only drawback was that both skills had very long cooldown periods.
As Nie Yan held the Chapter of Benevolence, Sonia beside him suddenly opened her eyes. A sinister and alluring glint flickered within them—her pitch-black pupils seemed to harbor a demon lurking deep within.
Nie Yan’s heart skipped a beat. She was awakening! Without hesitation, he dropped the Chapter of Benevolence into his backpack and bolted for the exit.
He had to escape quickly. He didn’t know whether he could flee from the Moonlight Sanctuary!
At that moment, the five white elf mages outside cried out in alarm.
“That despicable thief has stolen the Chapter of Benevolence!”
“Kill him!”
The five white elf mages searched for Nie Yan’s trail, preparing to hunt him down.
Nie Yan’s Void Invisibility effect allowed him to evade these searching white elf mages as he sprinted outward.
Suddenly, red clouds rolled across the sky ahead, and searing clouds rained down from above.
Realizing the danger, Nie Yan quickly stopped and swiftly dodged aside, narrowly avoiding the area-of-effect magic.
Fireballs rained down like a storm, exploding with sparks.
Nie Yan sprinted at top speed across the endless wilderness, vanishing into the darkness. He knew the danger was far from over—he couldn’t find an exit, and recall scrolls or teleport scrolls were unusable here!
At that moment, the six Chapters of Order in his backpack began to emit a faint glow, resonating with each other.
System: Would you like to combine the Chapters of Justice, Benevolence, Courage, Wisdom, Fairness, and Freedom into Volume I of the Chapters of Order?
Yes!
Without hesitation, Nie Yan clicked confirm. A blinding light erupted, as dazzling as the sun. He quickly averted his gaze.
Volume I of the Chapters of Order was about to be forged! Nie Yan’s heart raced with excitement!
