341. Real (2)
In an instant, a battle of notices broke out between the gods.
[The apostles are selected on a first-come, first-served basis…? ]
It was worth it.
Being designated as an apostle of an ancient deity can be directly linked to a compulsory elevation of the realm.
Therefore, even if he reached the level of official godhood, he was bound to be shaken.
The reason why they came to this battlefield of the gods was because they said that the tower could become a god of a high level.
‘Then there’s nothing I can’t seduce like Top.’
It is a god who came all the way here, stimulated by the power in front of his eyes.
So I thought that he couldn’t help but cling to the position of the apostle of the ancient godhead…
Could it be that being an apostle of an ancient deity was more powerful than I thought?
All of a sudden, the gods jumped out almost simultaneously, without saying which one was first, and offered a lot.
[The Brain God’s Orb! This is the last holy relic left by the god of thunder who was on the verge of defeat! So its value is beyond imagination…]
[ ─Get out! Thunderer? under! Where to rub the holy relics of such an old child! You ancient deity! I will offer the sacred relics of the god of search, one of the seven gods of Ares…]
[ hour! I’ll offer you one of the holy relics left by the god of time…! therefore! Couldn’t you give me the grace to be selected as an apostle!? ]
Indeed, a fierce battle of words that is not like a god.
But beyond that, there was someone who stood out the most.
It was none other than the god of wrath, a woman with pink hair and snake-like eyes, said to have the holy relic of the ‘god of time’.
‘It’s one of the holy relics left by the god of time.’
And I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at her words.
He may have never heard of the ‘God of Time’ directly, but it is because I have seen the relic.
Isn’t the holy relic that I am wearing on my wrist right now, ‘Returner’s Worn Watch (SSS+)’, also one of the holy relics left by the ‘god of time’.
So, it was difficult to draw attention.
‘This is bound to be a bit appetizing.’
Even I am not the only one.
[City God of time? Then, the holy relic of the time series series for you, the god of wrath…!? ]
[This is nonsense! The relics left by the god of time are few and far between in the universe! ]
[I agree. god of wrath. How could someone like you have the relic of the lost old monster? ]
Before I knew it, the deities here spat out such astonishment.
[Whoops! That’s what you guys don’t know, right? Kut! Anyway, I have a holy relic left by the god of time! ]
And in the meantime, seeing the reaction, the god of wrath smiled triumphantly as if he had seized her victorious spirit, and straightened her shoulders.
[I guess this is my victory! ]
But I narrowed his eyes rather than readily taking sides with him.
“Come to think of it, didn’t you tell me before that you had no more holy relics?”
[ oh…? ]
“I’m sorry.”
[Yeah, but this can be explained—. ]
“It would be better to hold off for now.”
[!? ]
“Then next.”
Because of that, I casually saw another god.
…Of course, if I had to argue, it was as if the winner had already been decided.
A holy relic that interferes with the short time that the god of time left before disappearing.
At the point where the god of wrath possesses it, it won’t be comparable to any holy relic.
But I didn’t immediately admit it.
‘If I acknowledged it right away, the other gods wouldn’t make any money.’
That way, you’ll be able to rip off a lot of things from other gods as well.
Shall we call it a torture of hope that deceives the psychology of expectation?
In any case, it seemed that the other gods were going to explore to see if they had something useful.
To put it bluntly, there must be things that the real wrath god does not like.
‘Still, thanks to the god of rage, I had a lot of fun, so I’m not particularly angry.’
that’s not that big
It was because she obtained the strongest hand with the holy relic ‘Jewel of Preservation (SS+)’ obtained through her donation (?) of the god of wrath.
It was also an unusual level of cards that could stack divine < fighting spirit >.
That’s why I had enough thoughts to accept the god of wrath as an apostle.
I was just doing this because I was afraid that other gods would reveal their bottom line if I told them openly.
“Ego….”
I smiled at him and continued.
“It must be an opportunity to become an apostle of an ancient deity.”
Not different…
“But, where can there be a deeper sincerity than this?”
To be able to rob the gods in front of them as much as possible.
“The God of Severance seeks out the holy relic and presents it with deep greed.”
“The God of Resonance, with deep greed, surrenders the faith of the Shinto…”
“The god of hypocrisy stirs up deep greed and takes control of religion…”
‘…is this fishing going very well?’
That’s very certain.
***
Time passed, but nothing changed.
‘Isn’t there anything more than a holy relic left behind by the god of time?’
Is there a certain limit to the supply and demand of holy relics?
I tried all the resources of the gods, but nothing better came out.
Even though he received the right to operate a faith or a religious organization held by other gods, it was the same.
I think I ate everything the gods in front of me had…
Even so, it was all a little better than useless or useless to me.
Then, as I had internally decided, I decided to select the god of wrath as the apostle deity.
“It’s just that the god of wrath becomes the apostle deity.”
But did the god of wrath not know that he would be selected as an apostle?
[ …yes yes? really? is it me? What makes an apostle a god? ]
She wiggled her pink hair around and pointed at herself with her finger, but she didn’t change.
“That’s right.”
Wasn’t it a set procedure to choose a god of rage anyway?
[ Whoo whoop whoop! Do you really think I’m going to be an apostle of Godhead…? Aha ahaha! ]
As it was, I chose her without her inspiration, and her wrath god expressed great joy as she let out her smile.
“So, should I give you the holy relic that the god of time left behind?”
but for a while.
[ iced coffee! yes That’s right~ Of course you have to give it, right? Unlike others, I am a buyer! Ahaha! ]
When the god of wrath said that to the other gods, discontent erupted everywhere.
[It’s rotten…. The image seems to be twisted. To think that I should give that seat to someone who has taken it so far. ]
[Honestly, aren’t you buying the holy relic of time concept interference that the god of time created? ]
[I don’t know where the god of wrath got that stuff…]
The Wrath god passed me an old-fashioned telescope, enjoying the god’s reaction.
「The Telescope of Time and Observation」
「Rating: SSS-」
“A telescope for time observation in a parallel world created by the god of time based on the divinity of observation.”
「When used by [Ancient Godhead], the exclusive effect ‘Observer’s Time’ can be activated.」
「After using the exclusive effect ‘Observer’s Time’, the item itself disappears.」
「※ By observing the future of the not-so-distant parallel world, you can summon another one of your own powers.」
「※The ‘parallel world’ exists but does not exist and is only a kind of ‘possibility’.」
「※However, in the time zone of the parallel world, if the user cannot handle it or if there is no close relationship at all, it cannot be observed.」
“…that’s fun.”
and.
‘I didn’t know that only ancient deities could use the power of the holy relic.’
Seeing that, I smiled a little.
A beautiful telescope engraved with geometric patterns for some reason.
Reading the explanation in the system message above it, I narrowed my eyes.
An item that can only be used by an ‘ancient deity’ by picking one out of countless conditions?
I could see why the god of wrath had not been able to use it properly even though he was hiding it.
But that was only for a moment, and my eyes lit up when I read all the explanations that were added below.
‘This means that I can observe the future where I am in the parallel world…’
Isn’t this like a mirror that reads the future shown by the god of proof?
But it wasn’t quite the same as that.
Because the holy relic ‘Spyglass of Time and Observation (SSS-)’ can bring the power of the future self.
In fact, shouldn’t it be a temporary growth?
I couldn’t tell how good this was.
‘It doesn’t really make a lot of sense compared to the worn-out wristwatch of a regressor.’
It was worth it.
How useful would the relic Spyglass of Time and Observation (SSS-) be if it could borrow one of the features I need to reach into the future?
Even the parallel world and the power of ‘I’ that would have reached the future timeline could not be summoned if the current ‘I’ could not handle it.
That’s why it was ambiguous.
It wouldn’t be very useful if I could just bring up a useless ‘what if’ story to the current me.
‘Still, the ability of the relic itself is quite unique.’
parallel world.
It brings the power of ‘me’ in the not-too-distant future among the countless possibilities of time.
That in itself is certainly intriguing.
If I can bring the ‘possibility of what I can reach’ to ‘me’ here, it can be of great help in some cases.
But it was a gamble.
‘Perhaps the distant future is unobservable, so its performance seems ambiguous.’
It would have been nice if it had been openly fraudulent, like a ‘regressor’s worn-out wristwatch (SSS+)’.
It’s just a pity that it isn’t.
However, there may be opportunities to use it later.
Right after I put the holy relic ‘Time and Observation Telescope (SSS-)’ in my inventory.
As it is, most of the holy relics received from other gods were converted into divine power.
「The Seal of Offering (SS-) exclusive effect ‘Offering (供養)’ is activated.」
“You can offer your [talent] [ability] [treasure] to the gods.”
Not different…
“I chose to offer a [treasure] to the god.”
“Please designate the [treasure] you wish to offer to the gods.”
“I received 19 items from myself.”
“Replaces the corresponding items with divine power and accumulates them in the heart.”
Except for one holy relic to decorate my temple, I changed everything to divinity.
“It’s neat.”
And then I turned around and went inside the temple, and roughly placed a holy relic inside.
Click-.
「Condition satisfied.」
「Confirmed that all clear conditions for < #C9-001 > on the Battlefield of the Gods have been met.」
「Escape from the Battlefield of the Gods < #C9-001 > and move to the next area.」
As a result, system messages appeared in front of my eyes and informed me that I could go to the next area.
Zuuu-.
Before I knew it, I smiled as I watched the space tear open inside the temple and open the path.
‘Now I can go to the next one.’
It seems like you’ve spent quite a bit of time attacking the Battlefield of the Gods…
“…”
There is no need to waste your time.
“Then, shall we quickly finish the Battlefield of the Gods?”
Anyway, the myth < Possibility of Transcendence > and the growth of necromancy must be lurking beyond.
“That way you can get what you want quickly.”
so….
“It will be fun.”
Now, isn’t it time to see the end of the Battlefield of the Gods?
***
After entering the world beyond the temple in the blink of an eye.
「The ancient divine authority ‘designation of apostle deity’ is activated.」
「You can designate an Apostle Godhead to make a Shinto a Godhead or a Shinto an Apostle Godhead.」
「Currently, the number of candidates for divine status and divine followers who worship the god of transcendence and death is [7].」
As it was, I brought the gods and activated the ancient divine power, ‘Apostle Divinity Designation’.
‘This….’
and.
「I bring up the list of followers that can be designated as apostle deities.」
「※You can forcibly elevate the level of divinity possessed by a follower by designating an apostle deity.」
「Disciple who can designate apostle deity (1): Lee Ha-yeon」
“Disciple who can designate apostle deity (2): Catherine Bennett”
「Disciple who can designate Apostle Divinity (3): Lucia Mimir」
“Disciple who can designate an apostle deity (4): Katia”
「Apostle deity designation possible follower (5): [God of Wrath] Soliet Lelia」
….
….
The moment when a list that can be designated as an apostle deity appeared through a system message.
“…that’s interesting.”
I had to admire him greatly.
‘Catherine Bennett and Lee Ha-yeon can also be designated as apostle deities…’
I never thought there would be so many people other than the God of Wrath who could be designated as apostle deities.
Even Catherine Bennett and Lee Ha-yeon, who are not so high in divinity, could be designated as apostle deities.
And that’s not all.
Followers from various worlds that I saw while climbing the tower, such as Lucia Mimir or Katia, were also showing their presence there.
However, he did not yet intend to designate them as apostle deities.
‘I think it’d be better to designate this the next time I go back to Earth.’
It was worth it.
Even if Catherine Bennett or Lee Ha-yeon were designated as apostle deities here, it would not mean much.
Anyway, before the Apostle Godhead, the connection with the Godhead was not that deep.
Even that was not enough, and I was suddenly selected as an apostle, and I could feel the confusion.
‘I want to quickly throw away the useless divinities, but I can’t help it…’
That’s why I didn’t do anything else and selected the god of wrath as the apostle god.
“The god of transcendence and death appoints ‘Soliet Lelia’ as an apostle deity.”
And as a result, numerous system messages came to mind, but I did not intend to pay attention to them anymore.
I only focus on breaking the battlefield of the gods and advancing.
Before I knew it, I erased all my thoughts and crossed the battlefield of all the gods with the gods.
In fact, on my own.
「If the conditions for clearing < #C9-002 > of the Battlefield of the Gods are met, you will move to the next area.」
「If the conditions for clearing < #C9-003 > of the Battlefield of the Gods are met, you will be moved to the next area…」
「If the conditions for clearing < #C9-004 > of the Battlefield of the Gods are met, moving to the next area is actually…」
….
….
In an instant, the battlegrounds of countless gods were pierced, and even the conditions for clearing the ordeal were satisfied.
“Satisfying the conditions for clearing the trial.”
“Are you sure you want to stop the trial?”
however….
“Is there any way to stop?”
Nonetheless, he persevered.
‘There are so many things I need to get here.’
That would be too…
「Divine < Harvest > is activated, extracting divinity from [■■] and reaping a very small amount.」
As time goes on I get more and more.
「The mastery of the unique attribute ‘Necromancy’ increases by 0.01%.」
「Increases the mastery of the unique attribute ‘Necromancy’ by 0.01%…」
「The mastery of the unique attribute ‘Necromancy’ has increased by 0.01%…」
Before he knew it, the divine < Harvest > increased his necromancy proficiency, and his growth accelerated.
‘Growth is getting faster…’
Not even that.
“Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s victory against the Divine Power brought him 0.94% closer to [Transcendence].”
“Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s victory against the Divine Power brought him 0.91% closer to [Transcendence]…”
“Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s victory against Divine Power increases [Transcendence] by 0.87%…”
Not different…
「I have absorbed the spirit of Rikhard Serild, the god of euphemism.」
“I have absorbed the spirit of the god of rebellion ‘Radpa Karame’…”
“Absorbing the spirit of ‘Tessid von Asral Kelliom,’ the god of destruction…”
Even those who reached official godhood quickly gained strength by killing without hesitation.
At least, I collected more than 10 concepts of divinity.
However, that doesn’t make it useful.
On the contrary, it just feels cluttered.
‘Even if the concept divinity increases, this isn’t very efficient.’
Even if you can increase the number of Power Skills with Divine < Transcendence >, it is the same.
Although the number of concept-type divinities increased, the number that could be used practically was not so large, and along with that, the number of power skills could not be used too much.
That’s why it’s the same situation as gireuk.
It was all the more so because even concept divinity was trivial.
‘I’m sure this will need to be mitigated by designating an apostle deity later.’
As a result, I had to remind myself of the fact that I had to remove the divinities.
「You have entered the Battlefield of the Gods < #C9-006 >.」
And finally…
“You have entered the Battlefield of the Gods < #C9-007 >.”
“This is a land of destruction where many gods are at odds with each other due to differences in views.”
「Condition 1: Eliminate every opponent who opposes you.」
「Condition 2: Absorb the [■■] in the center of destruction and become a god.」
“…”
The moment we reached the end beyond the Battlefield of the Gods beyond many barriers.
Shoot AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA…!!
From above, I saw black mud falling into the center of the earth.
Even when that black mud fell, a wave of divinity resounded.
It is also a very heterogeneous wave of divinity.
―Could that be…
And Damcheonwu’s voice, which resided in the Blood Demonic Sword, froze coldly, and a shallow astonishment flowed.
―Did someone else steal your fake necromancy…?
As if it could be like this.
“I don’t think so.”
At the point where the fake necromancy, the black sphere, fell, a mighty flow of divinity was felt.
「※NEW!※」
“The final victor has been born on the Battlefield of the Gods < #C9-007 >.”
“On the Battlefield of the Gods < #C9-007 >, the god of victory ‘Yakharu Kadomo’ absorbed [■■].”
“To put it bluntly, I think it can be said that this seems to have been the Tower’s intention.”
And seeing the system message that appeared in front of my eyes, I had no choice but to calm my eyes.
“Did you say he was the god of victory?”
It was worth it.
“The god of transcendence and death intuits the birth of an ancient deity.”
[ It seems that an ancient deity appeared there, as the Tower intended. ]
Not different…
[An ancient deity with a minor version of my necromancy. ]
…Under the leadership of the Tower of Trials, an ancient deity was being born.
