203. Ancient Godhead (5)
< The Fall >.
One of the divine authority used by the god of despair, fall, and madness…
This divine authority < fall > had the power to cause a temporary loss of ability.
From what I’ve seen so far, it probably targets an ability whose use has been observed, temporarily destroying that ability itself.
‘It’s definitely a great ability like a cheat.’
Admitted.
The < fall > used by the god of despair, fall, and madness was enormous.
However, if you ask if the divine authority < fall > is flawless, that is not the case again.
It is also true that you cannot designate an ability that has not been used as a target for disappearance with < Fall >
.
< Blessing of those who do not fall >.
This special buff acquired in the myth < The Warrior of Reversal > created resistance to < Fall >.
Of course, even with this, I couldn’t completely resist the divine authority < fall >…
but at least some of the restrictions on movement disappeared.
Having resistance means that the < fall > won’t helplessly dissipate the ability.
Now he can use the skills he had kept without being able to use them.
「The skill ‘Starlight Starlight’ is strongly activated.」
Farah…!
A sphere of light created in the air furiously inflates divinity within it.
and.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa—
Then, as soon as the outer shell was removed, the divine light exploded.
Kazijijik!
The grains of sand rushing in as if they were going to pierce the body, and the typhoon carrying thunder and lightning disappeared at once.
Even without leaving a trace.
「I survived the despair, fall, and the power of the god of madness twice.」
Therefore, the extinction judgment was made, and half of the clear conditions were fulfilled.
‘nice.’
In fact, considering that one turn left as the last resistance can be endured without any conditions, it is now one turn left.
But…
[a mortal… doing something stupid……]
The opponent knows that my goal is not to win completely, so the difficulty will be different from before.
Jijik.
The voice with noise now reached a level where one’s mental strength was cut into pieces just by listening to it.
Do I have to say that listening to the prophecies makes me feel like bugs are crawling in my head?
Not a very good feeling.
[With something like you… the tower… will not be able to achieve the desired outcome…]
In response, I immediately used the divinity in my body to get rid of that unpleasant feeling.
[That power… as expected… it would be right for it to be given to me… rather than to a mortal like you…]
However, unlike before, it didn’t lead to an overt attack, so the attack extinction judgment didn’t appear.
[I’ll stop the arrogant struggle soon…]
After those words, the god of despair, fall, and madness immediately caused a change.
「The skill ‘Starlight Starlight’ is temporarily lost due to the divinity < fall >.」 「
Resist the skill disappearance with the special buff < Blessing of those who do not fall >.」
It wasn’t as powerless as before.
But that was only for a moment.
「Divinity < fall > releases the exclusive authority #A-9871[Blind line of sight] from the lost state.」
Suddenly, the exclusive authority that was initially lost through < fall > was restored.
‘What trick is this again?’
The god of despair, fall and madness was still hostile to me.
Declaration of abandonment?
It wasn’t like that, but now I could understand it to mean that the battle phase had changed.
In fact, the guess was right the next moment, as if it wasn’t wrong.
「The Divine < Crash > consumes the specified number of falls in excess and penetrates the resistance.」 「
The skill ‘Starlight Starlight’ is temporarily lost
due to the Divine < Crash > .」 will be.
I gnashed my teeth at him.
‘…I heard that < Protection of the one who does not fall > is not an absolute resistance force, so did that mean this case?’
understood.
The resistance against the divine authority < fall > was only resistance.
Therefore, if you invest in Light Disappearance exceeding the specified number of < Fall >, the resistance will be broken.
To put it more simply, it was like this.
A stone that cannot be broken with 10 hits is broken by increasing the number of hits with 100 hits.
As the blows increase, the stone’s wonderful durability will wear out and break.
‘I never thought something like this would be possible.’
The use of overlapping divine powers.
It was to the point where I wanted to stick my tongue out in an unexpected situation.
But there was an income.
“After all, even the Divine Authority < Crash > has a limited number…”
Maybe this battle isn’t as disadvantageous as I thought.
***
「Exclusive authority #A-9871[Gaze Blocking] is activated.」
「All deities and administrators’ gazes are blocked simultaneously.」
I re-activated the Gaze Blocking permission that had been released from the disappearance state.
Soon, the pressure of the gaze from the god of despair, fall, and madness lessened.
The pressure from the eyes of the opponent was not a little, so it had a meaningful effect.
However, the subsequent offensive was not easy to say that it had benefited this much.
「By divinity < Despair >, all will that touches divinely-infused attacks is severed.」 「
By divinity < madness >, all wills touched by divinity-infused attacks are eroded.」
< Despair > and < madness >.
It was the act of invoking divine powers that had not been actively used until now.
They didn’t even attack with natural disasters through planetary erosion now.
Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!
Hundreds of tentacles stretched out in unison from the black clouds that settled in the sky.
Looking at that, I quickly turned my thoughts around.
‘Are cutting and erosion the essence of divine authority?’
< Despair > severes the will, and < Madness > erodes the will.
I knew the essence.
However, there is still insufficient information to know the applications and results.
He had already thought of how to deal with the < fall >.
‘I need to find out more information.’
For now, it would be important to lay the foundation for a one-step reversal, even if it means taking risks
.
Swoop.
Calming my mind, I gently swung my twin swords and reached down.
“…”
The two swords in my hands are softness that has been trained to the limit.
It reminds me of the Changcheon Secret Sword, which Namgung-hyeok, the Changcheon Sword Dragon, showed off.
Perhaps the formula for the secret sword of the Changcheon was created with the thought of a valiant sword that traverses the Changcheon.
But that would not be enough to shed the power of a god.
I had to get rid of the will itself and calm my will to the level of being assimilated into nature.
「The labyrinth achievement ‘Rare’ has been achieved.」
「The labyrinth score +4 points are obtained.
」
Quatsuits—!
The black tentacles shot from above collided with the twin swords, releasing black divinity as if inflating.
But all that divinity flows gently from the sword.
The will that dwells in the sword subsides before anyone knows it, and neither the will cutting by < despair > nor the will erosion by < madness > occur.
It was worth it.
Because the will embedded in the sword is almost non-existent.
He surprised me.
‘Originally, I didn’t think I’d be able to block this well…’
Maybe due to the crazy idea of spilling an attack with a double sword, I thought I might be seriously injured.
But it wasn’t.
In a situation driven to the limit, the skill of the sword had grown to an extent that surprised me.
And that too fast to make sense.
―…Because you’re such a madman. Do you get enlightenment in this situation? Even non-partisan long-time writers will give up and go.
Is this growth brought on by genius?
I’m not sure, but whatever the cause of the growth was, I didn’t think it mattered much.
Anyway, even this small skill growth is not enough to deal with the god of despair, fall, and madness.
Moving my sword gently, I glanced up at the dark clouds in the sky.
An unpleasant assemblage of divinities with countless eyeballs attached to them.
and.
「Exclusive authority #K-1547[Information access] is activated.」
I used the information access authority I received from the dragon god.
“Only a small amount of information can be viewed targeting a higher-ranking being than the user.”
Of course, since the information was viewed against a higher-ranking deity, it did not show its original value.
It could be said that the information reading, which was attempted like a gamble, was successful, and that it benefited more than expected.
「God of despair, fall, and madness」
「The first candidate selected by the Tower.」
「Currently not classified as a challenger, and has retained the ■■■ given by the Tower.」
「Three of the originally existing deities ■■■ It is an ancient deity that superimposed divine names by doing so.”
“He is very greedy for the current challenger Han Seong-yoon’s ■■■.”
Next, after reading all the system messages generated by reading information, I narrowed my eyes.
‘The first candidate selected by the tower…?’
I would never have thought that the god of despair, fall, and madness was a deity from a challenger.
A shocking fact.
But it was difficult to react to it.
Currently, I am swinging the sword, and this is a task that should not be distracted.
As I was taking care of him, the information window suddenly disappeared.
「Exclusive permission #K-1547[View information] prevents you from seeing the information of high-ranking opponents for a long time.」 「
Exclusive permission #K-1547[View information] is forcibly stopped and a cooldown of 10 minutes is created.」
Because of forcibly reading the information of a high-ranking opponent, a cooldown was created following the suspension of the use of authority.
But I read all the important information.
The god of despair, fall, and madness is the ‘first candidate’ selected by the tower
.
‘I know enough information.’
Now that he had acquired most of the information he wanted, it was time to make a bet.
The odds were simple.
「The skill ‘Destroy Heaven’ is activated.」
「The limit on what can be destroyed disappears.」
Bringing out the weakness of the divine authority < fall > to the fullest.
That was the best strategy to break through this situation.
Quadruped—!
The dark tentacles were pushed back as the power of the heavens dwelled in the twin swords that shed black tentacles.
In a state that was slightly scratched by the broken cloth.
‘Isn’t it judged that it endured the power of God to the extent that it scratched?’
The god of despair, fall, and madness immediately reaped the black tentacles and continued to prophesy as if annoyed.
[Top… Did you give me something like this again… Power that I can’t handle anyway…]
And.
[The toy-like power you put in the hands of a mortal… like this… can be ruled out as much as you like… ]
With those words, the divinity amplification that was previously lost due to < Crash > returned and Pacheon disappeared.
「Divinity < Fall > frees < Imprint Skill: Divinity Amplification (B+) > from the loss state.」 「
Divine < Fall > consumes the specified number of falls in excess and penetrates resistance.」
「Divine < Fall > As a result, the skill ‘Death Heaven’ is temporarily lost.」
I smiled at that.
“I knew it would come out like this.”
This was the biggest problem with < Crash >.
「Activate the True Blood Demon Sword’s < Imprint Skill: Divinity Amplification (B+) >」
right after amplifying the divinity in the body.
Chi profit…!
I burned the rushing black tentacles with my divinity and flew high into the air.
To a black cloud with countless eyeballs sprouting.
[It’s absurd….]
The god of despair, fall, and madness immediately activated < Fall > as if he was pathetic, but… ‘As
expected, it goes like this.’
「Divinity < Crash > releases the skill ‘Starlight Starlight’ from the loss state.」 「
Divinity < Crash > consumes the specified number of falls in excess and penetrates resistance.」
「Divinity < Call > < Engraving Skill: Divinity Amplification (B+) > is temporarily lost.」
This was exactly what I was aiming for.
「The skill ‘Starlight Starlight’ is strongly activated.」
Kwagwagwagwang…!
The dark red divine light pushes away the black tentacles at once like a flash battle, dealing some damage.
Of course, the Divine Authority < Fall > was activated immediately, but even this fell within the expected range.
‘Even if the holy light disappears, Pacheon will come back like this.’
Right away, I swung it around the twin swords, and the black tentacles were driven to the point of being completely cut off.
[This god damned mortal…]
「The skill ‘Death Heaven’ is temporarily lost due to the divinity < Crash >.」
The god of despair, fall, and madness, frightened by that fact, immediately sealed the Fallen… ..
「Divinity < Fall > frees < Imprint Skill: Divinity Amplification (B+) > from disappearing state.」
In return, the Divinity Amplification was definitely returned to me.
Paaa!
Then, the moment when the black tentacles began to melt due to divine amplification.
The god of despair, fall, and madness uttered an angry voice.
[Being annoyed with the mortal subject…! How far do you think you can go with useless expedients…! ]
Now this deity is also understood.
The fact that the current situation has become very unfavorable to him.
‘No matter how much I use < Fall >, now the abilities return in order, so there is no point in using divine powers.’
Even if the ability is lost due to the stacking of divine power, another ability is returned due to the excess
.
‘Anyway, it seems that the targets that can be designated with < Crash > are already limited, but then the battle is already over.’
Therefore, it can be seen that the meaning of < Crash > has faded.
However, the god of despair, fall, and madness soon mumbled a prophecy like a whisper.
[ …okay. mortal I’ll play along with you a little bit. ]
At first glance, it seemed that the anger had subsided, but in reality it was not at all.
[In return, I will take your soul for the game. ]
I replied with a smile at that noisy voice.
“However much.”
***
A battle occurred in which the same process was repeated.
Skills disappear and return hundreds of times due to the divine power < fall >…
In the midst of a really difficult and annoying battle with the god attack, I started to get pushed back.
It was worth it.
While that other side is classified as an ancient deity, I am not even a proper deity.
‘Perhaps the god of despair, fall and madness wants me to die of exhaustion.’
Know.
Even if you go this far and turn < fall > into a virtually meaningless power.
The disadvantage in this battle is that I am alone from start to finish and there is no way to kill the enemy.
But my victory condition is not to kill that ancient deity.
‘The condition for clearing the final layer of the labyrinth is to withstand the godhead’s attack 4 times.’
And the counting of the endurance is based on the complete dissipation of the power used by the god of despair, fall, and madness.
In other words…
In any case, if you succeed in extinguishing the power of the god of despair, fall, and madness, you can fill the count one more time.
And I was also thinking about how to fill that first episode.
「The skill ‘Destructive Heaven’ is activated.」
「The limit on what can be broken is gone.」
The moment you get the Destructive skill, you can break anything by pouring your magic into it.
「Authority ‘Sword Flame Jigyeong劍炎之境’ is strongly activated.」
I activated the sword flame power that I had been saving until now.
and.
「Increases the power of Power skill skills by
[4] times by consuming holy power.」 Gathering
most of the holy power in the body and keeping it as it is, the sword Increased the power contained in it several times.
At the same time, I swung my sword at the black tentacles pouring down on me, and then a neat result was drawn.
Kwaji Jijik…!!
“I survived 3 times from despair, fall, and the power of the god of madness.”
All of the black tentacles could not withstand the sword attack and died as they were brutally cut down.
Did it bother me that I was close to the level clear condition?
[A worthless mortal…! I mean, let go of that power…! ]
The god of despair, fall, and madness let out a sound close to noise filled with fury.
“The God of Despair, Fall, and Madness paid a huge amount of holy power to the tower.”
“The God of Despair, Fall, and Madness acquires the right to use limited myths.”
Then, as if it were the last phase, the myth was activated.
「The wave of predation created by Shinhwa < Greed > engulfs the challenger Han Seong-
yoon .」
Black waves pour like a waterfall from the sky as if to swallow the world.
I could understand it by looking at it.
“This is unstoppable.”
I don’t know what function the myth of Tom is, but one thing is certain.
That means getting out of it is impossible.
But there was no reason to avoid it.
That would be too….
Kwaaang!
「The skill ‘Last Resistance’ is activated.」
「Invalidates the fatal wound inflicted on you.」
「All senses are temporarily amplified and all skills are compensated.」
「The skill cooldown for one week . Time will be given.”
I didn’t dodge the last attack anyway, and I tried to endure it with a last stand.
‘It’s finally over.’
As the final resistance, the black wave itself created by Shinhwa < Greed > was nullified and disappeared, and the message I wanted came to mind.
「I have endured 4 times from the power of the god of despair, fall, and madness.」
Right…
「Conditions satisfied.」
「Clearing the 10th floor of the giant tree labyrinth [end dimension] will give you a reward for clearing the labyrinth.」
「Congratulations …!」
「You have cleared Lunatic difficulty for the first time among all the challengers in the Giant Tree Labyrinth
.
」
Watching the system messages that come to my mind without rest…
I realized that I had really cleared the final level of the labyrinth.
However, there was no time to relax and think about the clearing.
[ Top…! iced coffee…! My oldest friend…! Why are you abandoning me…! ]
It deserved it.
Because the god of despair, fall, and madness was howling without being able to hide his resentment.
[Give me a chance! If I had that mortal power…! There won’t be any mistakes like before!]
However, it was only for a moment to see it.
「After clearing the final layer of the labyrinth, challenger Han Seong-yoon will return to the earth dimension.」
The light enveloped her whole body and her vision was blocked, and soon she felt a feeling of floating that she had never experienced before.
‘It’s going back to Earth.’
Now that you have cleared the final level of the labyrinth, you will return to your original position as the event ends.
It took a long time, but the thought of clearing the labyrinth and returning like this didn’t make me feel too bad.
And…
“….”
I smiled as I watched the last message emerge through my increasingly blurry vision.
‘I never thought this would be created as soon as I clear the labyrinth.’
「Newly gathered tales have accumulated in a sufficient amount to create a myth.」
「Calculate a myth according to the actual result and Shinto belief.」
Finally…
「The myth < Possibility of Transcendence > has been completed.」
A new myth is created. It became.
