415. The beginning of the age (2)
The understanding was completed in an instant.
───.
It was simple.
After becoming an ancient deity, this pure sense should have acquired tremendous insight far beyond the normal category.
At this point, there was no need to build a network of detailed searches, using things like divinity, magic, or skills.
Just by sneaking out some of the pure bodily sensations, you can instantly grasp a lot of information on stage.
‘…Divinity and Mana and Magi.’
It was felt.
In the blink of an eye, I caught the energy of many challengers beyond the Great Forest.
Most of the challengers who climbed the Tower of Trials I saw before must have been quite far from divine or demonic energy.
But the people here are different.
There are quite a few who have established individual divinities comparable to formal apostles chosen by higher deities or formal deities, or those who appear to be actual apostles.
‘Have some of them not stopped at the level of just having an assortment, but have even established a hierarchy sufficient to build the divinity of individual concepts…’ It’s not even
that only.
It wouldn’t be easy to construct an individual concept of divinity if you didn’t have the ability to absorb divinity, like one of the supernatural abilities of necromancy you have.
But nonetheless, among the many challengers out there, not a few seemed to have won the divinity of the concept.
‘Suddenly, the average is getting higher.’
I barely understood.
Because the combined ordeal with other challengers in the original ordeal tower has a structure in which those who are equal are matched according to the number of floors and ranking.
Considering the high number of floors and the high ranking I have, everyone in this stage deserves to be called a high ranker.
“Really…”
Is that so?
“It’s quite a lot.”
Before I knew it, I had a curious smile on my face.
“For mortals.”
Should I say that I feel like I came to a buffet with good value for money?
‘Even though it’s close, I think it’s a passing line.’
Even if it is only a pseudo-goddess level rather than a high-ranking deity or official deity, it will help, albeit weakly, to the abilities of necromancy.
‘It’s worth hunting at this point.’
and-.
‘I can’t wait to see how far I can benefit.’
It was then.
Took-.
Feeling a sudden change, I stopped moving to begin the hunt and let out a cold gaze.
“…”
There was one gaze.
I had noticed long ago that there were about three or four people not too far from where I was standing.
Up to the fact that it is highly likely that all of them are assigned the role of a fugitive, not a hunter, but a prey.
However, they did not pay much attention to me as they did not approach the place where I was standing and seemed to be making some kind of preparation, but when this happens, the story changes.
“…under.”
That’s very certain.
“…that’s annoying.”
In the blink of an eye, I let go of the mana in my body, revealing a vicious murderous intent.
“…you.”
Coo coo coo coo coo coo…!!
“-Come out right now before I tear you to death.”
Magical power with terrifying thunder shines with the intent to kill. At this point, a large amount of magical energy with the nature of thunder forms an air current close to a whirlpool, almost squeezing all directions.
Even if the divine power of one of the ancient deities had not been added, the level of pure mana had reached a level incomparable to that of a single challenger.
Tadadak-.
“…Kuh! I apologize! Oh don’t get me wrong! I wasn’t watching you with the intention of being hostile—”
Is that why? It seems that the other party also felt the pressure.
Suddenly, a female elf with white hair came out from behind a large tree with both hands raised and gave out a puzzled voice.
It was to the point where he hurriedly hinted that he had no hostile intentions while putting down his pride, as if he felt the power of this side, even if it was a piece of it.
“whatever?”
“…That—.”
“Don’t even think about cheating.
”“….”
But…
“I’ll give you one minute.”
I didn’t like it too much either.
“go away.”
Recognizing that this side is strong and being courteous is great, but the rest is not.
Perhaps because they had a vague sense of the power I had, they seemed to be friendly with their
pride thrown away …
“…Oh, I think you misunderstood. Like you, I am also in a position to play the role of the prey, not the hunter. There’s no reason to fight. Perhaps we can build a good relationship through mutual understanding—”
It was absurd.
“-Agreement of interest?”
Pee-it…!!
At that moment, hearing the voice of the female elf filled with endless fear, I lightly moved the blades of my hands and built an invisible blade.
In the blink of an eye, the shot of the sword grazed the female elf’s right cheek and did not stop there, accelerating once more and cutting down a large number of trees.
It’s also very neat.
So, so, so, so, so, so…!!
“That sounds like a lot of fun.”
And as a result, he smiled with a twisted smile while taking the sight of countless trees falling down as a spectacle.
“There’s no way there can be a consensus of understanding when the difference in skills is this big, right?”
“….”
But…..
“…they trade.”
Could it be that he came up with a different proposal after seeing the power this side had?
“…I’ll give you what I have, so in return, can’t you just let me survive until the end of this ordeal?”
Originally, for us, that white-haired female elf was something close to a flying insect or an ant, so no matter what the cost, there would be no interest in it.
“… I will offer you the highest grade items among the rewards obtained while climbing the Tower of Trials in exchange for protection.”
But this is different.
“…But if you don’t like this deal as well, I won’t go against your will any longer and I’ll make sure to step away—”
Yeah…
“I’ll accept.”
In fact, among the rewards that can be obtained from the Tower of Trials, special items such as skill proficiency increase potions or designated stat increase potions can greatly strengthen this side.
“At that point, it’s well worth the deal.”
Not even that.
‘I think I know roughly.’
Realized.
‘How to get the most efficient profit.’
This means that there is the most efficient way to receive and receive compensation, even thinking for yourself that this side can get the maximum benefit from those numerous challengers.
‘Trade or extortion.’
Wouldn’t that be a way for even weaklings who do not benefit from the supernatural powers of the myth < Possibility of Transcendence > or Necromancy to benefit greatly?
‘Actually, this was the biggest reward that could be obtained from the challengers climbing the Tower of Trials.
‘Originally, while climbing the Tower of Trials, I must have squeezed out countless items by trading or transferring items with numerous challengers.
Somehow, recently I’ve been seeing more enemies like Ancient Gods or Higher Gods, so I just forgot about them because I didn’t have much use for them.
It was worth using.
whopping.
ssss-.
but for a while.
“…we have to get out of here.”
Before I knew it, the female elf with white hair let out a voice tinged with tension as if she was nervous.
“…It’s even better that you accepted my deal, but suspicious signs are quickly approaching around here.”
It was worth it.
According to the conditions for clearing the trials on the 35th floor given by the Tower of Trials, the hunter must be in a situation where he must find his prey and kill it quickly.
As a result, it was obvious that numerous challengers who saw me using the heart sword would narrow their pursuit like the hyenas in charge of blood.
“…If you take into account twenty or even the number of people who have not been detected by my feelings, there is a high possibility that it will easily exceed thirty.”
There was really nothing different.
It was felt that a number of challengers were approaching, drawing an encirclement to the place where this side was standing.
Should I say that it is like a fish that sees the bait caught on the bobber and approaches without knowing that the one holding this rod is a predator?
It was ridiculous.
“…keep your cool.”
But…
“…it’s best to back off here.”
Could it be that he recognized this as a crisis of desperation?
“…there’s no benefit to being here any longer.”
Before she knew it, she spoke as if persuading, convinced that neither of them would be able to survive if they stayed here any longer.
“…If we continue like this, we will face the worst situation from which we can never return.”
No way.
“Even if you have a strength that is different from that of ordinary challengers on this stage, you should know that fighting in front of that number is irrational…!!”
Only…
“Well,” “That’s only for a moment
.”
Anyway, even if hundreds of people gathered, those flying insects wouldn’t be able to inflict any damage.
“therefore-.”
and.
“I will teach you.”
That means one thing.
Kiyiyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy…!!
「The power skill ‘Star Light’ is activated and a starlight containing divine < death > is created.」 It’s
nothing else…
「….」
「The skill ‘Symbol of Destruction’ is strongly activated.」
「A certain amount of All types of abilities gain destruction correction by consuming magic power.」
「Divinity < Acceleration > is used.」
「All abilities of Challenger Han Seong-yoon are greatly accelerated and become faster.」
「….」
「Skills’ ‘Starlight expansion’ is strongly activated.」
「All types of starlight are greatly expanded, resulting in a performance improvement of up to 4 times.」
It was simple.
“Once you’re halfway dead, everyone will definitely notice.”
In fact, I thought to make them realize that rules such as hunters and prey are no longer important in this stage.
“To dedicate the items obtained from the Tower of Trials to me.”
That way, those countless challengers who are engulfed in infinite fear will be able to easily obtain numerous items from me.
“That it is the only way they will survive.”
This will no longer be a place where challengers compete to the death, but will become a breeding ground where you will receive countless items as tribute until you like this side.
“Excellently.”
next moment.
─────────!
In the blink of an eye, black starlight spread in all directions and swallowed everything.
