192. Temple (4)
I had expected it to some extent.
That the deities who had been entangled in the tower would reveal themselves to me here.
But I never imagined it would happen in this form.
At the same time as I drank, Dam Chun-wu also helped with a word.
―Does it make sense for so many gods to descend at the same time…?
It sounded like he didn’t understand what was going on.
It was worth it.
The number of gods who wrote < Advent > in this place, including the god of darkness, is five….
That means that the situation has really gotten out of control now.
‘Damn it…’
It was a waste.
Even though the dark god seems to have favor with me, I can’t accurately read what’s inside.
Maybe we should assume the worst and allow Catherine Bennett to die.
My heart skipped a beat when I thought of that fact.
As the death of a colleague approached as a vivid image, my mind became white like a sheet of paper.
It was natural, as I had never imagined such a case before.
I didn’t know that the dark god would descend on Catherine Bennett, not on anyone else.
…No, in fact, it would be a lie if I said I didn’t know at all.
‘…At that time, was it because I received grace on the first floor of the giant tree labyrinth?’
Catherine Bennett had received the grace of stealth from the God of Darkness.
In other words,
it means that the dark god had enough of the < Advent > discount.
Of course, I didn’t even know that I was designated as a reserve apostle, but…
Even so, it was my fault for not calmly assuming that this would happen.
If Catherine Bennett is wrong because of this situation, she will have to take responsibility for it.
So…
―Don’t get carried away by your emotions. Losing reason won’t do anything.
For now, as Dam Chun-wu said, it is the time to hold on to reason and choose the best move.
“…I know.”
I immediately jumped out and canceled the skills that made up the barrier.
「The skill ‘Guardian’ is deactivated.]
Anyway, it is an undeniable fact that the god of darkness dwells in Catherine Bennett.
Therefore, it was important to find out her purpose first of all, without wasting her power to stop the Dark God.
And…
「The entire area slowly begins to be eroded by the divinity < Darkness >」
The moment the barrier maintained by the Guardian skill is completely lifted.
Gooooo…!
The earth turned black, and a voice tinged with divinity came to my ears.
[Hey. ]
I immediately intuited that.
[Didn’t I tell you? ]
At least…
[I’m not your enemy. ]
That the Dark God has no intention of killing me now.
***
The situation on the battlefield changed in an instant.
At the same time that the divine < Darkness > was used, the land was stained with darkness.
Of course, I can move in mid-air, so it doesn’t matter… But
the darkness that fell on the ground made the enemies who couldn’t fly have ridiculously low mobility.
But among them, there was one person who was currently most disappointed.
“Koooooooo!?”
The wolf with red fur could not bear the overwhelming weight and fell into the darkness like a swamp.
[ Nonsense…!! Why is an ancient deity like the god of darkness in a place like this…!? ]
A startled voice came from the man who was believed to have descended from the god of control.
It’s as if the dark god shouldn’t appear in this place…
It was unexpected.
‘Could it be that there is a certain degree of difference between Godheads?’
Even though they are not different from each other, they are making a fuss about being an ancient deity… Perhaps
the god of darkness, which is said to be an ancient deity, seemed stronger than a normal deity.
Is that why you can’t even resist the divine < darkness >?
I don’t know, but I knew at least that this was an opportunity.
「The authority ‘Shunbo’ is activated.」
「A cooldown is applied to the power for 10 minutes.」
「Consumes holy power to immediately move to the desired point within the field of view.」
Use the authority obtained from the replica in the previous floor. It moved right over the head of the red wolf.
Exactly…
[ What…!? ]
To the place where the man who is believed to have descended from the god of control is.
「The authority skill, ‘Dark Flames’ is strongly activated.」
Seriously—!
「Due to the death of the prospective apostle ‘Erid Lyole Dwalki’, the ruling god will be lifted from < Advent >.」 Could
it be that I didn’t know that I had a mobile device?
It was possible to kill easily because it was not wearing any protective powers.
The God of Dominion treated < Descent > so absurdly that it left my pulse drained.
‘I don’t think this would have happened if I had at least prepared for it in advance…’
As if he was a god, his conceit was different.
「Preliminary apostle ‘Erid Lyole Dwalki’ has absorbed the command.」 「Skill
increased by
7.4%」
―It’s not easy to die like this, but he’s a really low-level god
…
Since they fought relying on the summoned spirits, they must have eaten the battle itself raw.
Therefore, he must be conceited without knowing that the red wolf’s mobility would be sealed in battle.
“The god of dominance is furious at challenger Seongyoon Han for using dirty tricks!”
Of course, the god of dominion got angry and sent a message saying something, but…
Well, anyway, this is like a loser’s monopoly, so I don’t really care. decided not to
‘With this, I got one [Grail Fragment] for free.’
Soon I took out a small piece of glass from the dead Erid Lyall Dwalki’s arms.
“I have acquired the ruling faction’s [Grail Fragment].”
With this, the minimum foundation for going downstairs was laid.
At that, I immediately turned my head and looked at the location where the god of nature had descended
… Oh dark god! stop that! Isn’t this just mutual loss! ]
I could witness a scream coming out of the neck that had been fighting silently with my mouth closed until now.
“…”
together…
[Whoops. No way. If you can protect that child, this is not much of a loss. ]
Even the dark god with a benevolent smile looking down at the huge wooden statue.
At first glance, there is no difference from Catherine Bennet’s appearance except for the black energy flowing from her body…
[So, go to sleep quietly. ]
[ Stop that…! Aaaah-! ]
At least in terms of her personality, I could see that she was the complete opposite of Catherine Bennett.
Koo Goo Goong—!
I fell silent as I watched the wooden statue being engulfed in darkness as if falling into a swamp.
As called the Ancient Godhead, the Dark God was certainly different from the common Godhead.
Even though they fought head-to-head until now, the superiority and inferiority between
the divine powers was not overshadowed.
‘Was the god of oppression the most intelligent in this situation…’
Before he knew it, the god of oppression had disappeared without a sound, completely erasing even his presence.
In the first place, it would not have been difficult to escape since it was a godhead that did not reveal itself properly.
―You thought well. I never thought I would run away as soon as I saw the dark god. This is great as it is.
Even Damcheonwu was in awe of the fact that the god of oppression had run away.
Of course…
[It’s like a damn dark god…! also…! Are you disturbing me again like back then…! ] Just
like there are people who are
smart and there are people who are not.
I smiled at him.
‘Is the god of battle really without intelligence?’
I never thought I would be trembling with anger like that without any countermeasures
.
But for me it’s a good thing.
“You don’t have to worry about the dark god unnecessarily.”
That would be the case…
“Because you will die by my hands anyway.”
This is your chance to deal directly with the god of battle.
***
Is godhood mental illness insurmountable?
[This goddamn tower dog…! Who dares to spit out such absurd remarks at someone without even knowing what he is capable of…! ]
As soon as the god of battle heard my provocation, he became enraged as if he had an anger control disorder.
[Do you think you can win again when you can’t even use Sadohwa? ]
Quaaang—!
The god of battle immediately controlled the bloody tidal wave and quickly charged me in the air.
It was such a speed that a chill ran up his spine even when his abilities had risen to the point where it was unbelievable.
‘Still, a god is a god…’
As the saying goes, even if it rots, the god of battle showed amazing power.
[ die! ]
Unlike the clichéd line, the level of attack was different.
Paaaa…!!
‘It’s amazing.’
I admired the tidal wave of blood torn into hundreds of branches, each moving as if it had a will.
‘Even if you use a seeker of fresh blood, you won’t be able to control the blood so finely…’ If
there was someone who was clumsy in battle like the god of control instead of me in this place, he would surely have suffered a fatal injury.
But…
[The authority ‘Heolcheon Deep Gong’ is strongly activated.]
Even if I don’t have a seeker of fresh blood, I do have a Blood Demon Magic Gong.
“It was a foolish choice to choose a vampire for < Advent >.”
His body was overflowing with vitality as he used the power enhancement function created when his divine power level reached A- grade.
At least to this extent, he should be able to control blood to the level of a seeker of fresh blood.
In response, I immediately drew a large amount of blood that had been split into hundreds of pieces with my fingertips and absorbed all of it.
Surprisingly, however, the god of battle did not act as if he was at a loss.
Rather…
[Hahaha! It’s a skill I’ve seen before, but I couldn’t have prepared for it! be stupid! ]
He gave a creepy smile as if something very good had happened.
「By the special power ‘Blood Erosion’, it is quickly eroded by the demon’s blood.」
A sensation arose that all the blood in my body was boiling hot.
[Don’t you know that I’m several times better than you in terms of blood manipulation skills!? ]
He probably saw me before the god of battle and prepared for this
… ]
If this was a power that was activated through the medium of demon blood, it wasn’t that painful.
No…
To be precise, it was close to the opposite.
「The skill ‘Dehumanization’ is strongly activated.」
「The vampire factor has been completely accepted due to the skill ‘Dehumanization’.」 「
Because of the vampire factor stored in the skill ‘Dehumanization’, among the advantages of being a vampire Part of it is gradually transplanted.”
The power that is fatal to humans no longer works on me.
That would be the case…
[Uh…? ]
Now I’m not a human in terms of the system.
