Boundless Necromancer

Chapter 229

229. Shrine (2)

Apostle.

A person chosen by the gods, and unlike ordinary believers, a being favored by the gods.

Although I hadn’t met many apostles, I still knew a lot about them.

In its own way, even with an apostle, it was a body that risked its life to fight.

‘There was an unexpected ambush.’

An apostle was a strong person who could even use an apostle painting because he lacked a medium through which gods could descend.

Of course, there is a condition that Sado paintings can be used only when they are directly permitted by God

.

So there was no way he wouldn’t allow the apostleization.

Just like right now.

[ Now wait! You nameless deity! Bah, please wait a moment…! ]

Cliff Sherid.

At first, I thought it was some kind of gossip who accidentally took on the role of [Pope]…

?The God of Exile is glaring at the challenger, Sungyoon Han.?

?The God of Exile shows hostility towards the challenger, Seongyoon Han.?

I warn you that you won’t be able to see such a good performance.”

It turns out that he was a challenger with some connection to God.

I felt the divine gaze in the air, and an unpleasant sensation covered my skin.

It was as if it was going to < Advent > by paying divine power at any time if it bothered her eyes.

At that, I opened my eyes and spoke openly to Cliff Sherid as if I was hostile.

[It’s a pretty extreme reaction for asking me to wait a minute, right? ]

And.

[Clear your eyes. ]

At the same time, I immediately activated the gaze blocking authority.

?Exclusive authority #A-9871[Gaze Blocking] is activated.?

?All deities and administrators’ gazes are blocked at once.?

Chijijik-!

In an instant, without any delay, the feeling of heaviness pouring into my body disappeared.

Cliff Sherid’s face was stained with astonishment, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

As if it was more than he had imagined, he quickly began to play his tongue.

[You are making a mistake! This body is a follower of the god of banishment, so if the god finds out about my death—. ]

[ What are you going to do? ]

[ …. ]

[ Ah, it’s not the answer I was hoping for, but I’m sorry. What do you see me as? ]

[ …half godhead. ]

[ But why should I listen to your threat? ]

[ …tongue threats. I had no intention of doing such a thing. I just wanted to make a deal that benefits each other. ]

[Deal…. ]

I smiled at him.

‘I never expected to hear this again.’

Come to think of it, I once said this to an ancient demon in the giant tree labyrinth.

let’s make a deal

that we can give each other what we want.

And remembering that time, I gave a teaching about trading as a skilled teaching assistant.

[The deal is not like that. ]

[What’s that… ]

[It’s a business that benefits each other. If you emphasize only the loss like that, can it be a deal? ]

[ …. ]

[ So, it would be better to renew the terms of the deal. ]

Originally, a transaction is something that can benefit each other….

It was necessary to start a reasonable transaction according to that standard.

I drew an arc at the corner of my mouth as I looked at Cliff Sherid, whose pupils suddenly had an earthquake.

[Tell me how far you can give it. ]

I guess.

[Then I will try to live. ]

It seemed that another customer(?) would be born at this place.

***

The transaction went through quickly.

It was worth it.

The reason the challengers who participated in the trials on the 20th floor cannot intervene is because of the ice area.

Maintaining the ice zone requires a lot of divine power, so there was no time to overcharge each other.

[You’d better not think about cutting the cost of your life. ]

Did the exclusive effect ‘Persuasion (C+)’ obtained from the ascension while defeating the god of the spirit of the word be activated?

[I don’t have a very patient personality, so my hands seem to be able to move freely. ]

[ …don’t worry about that. Whoa, I’ll give you a decent trade item as you wish. ]

Cliff Sherid trembled and took care of his own life.

?Dimensional Exile Ticket?

?Grade: A+?

?A holy relic created by the God of Exile to drive out those who do not like it.?

?When you inject holy power into the ticket, you can activate the exclusive effect ‘Dimension Exile’.?

??Limited to one time, it is possible to banish even a divinity to another dimension.? ??

However, it is impossible to specify a dimension that can be expelled, and exile is done randomly.? ?

?However, it is a trial by the tower . It is impossible to expel the challenger who is in the middle of the battle to another dimension.?

It was nothing else but the holy relic.

Of course, it’s not a battle-related item, but it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that it was useful enough.

Even a godhead can be banished to another dimension.

It’s a one-time thing, but it’s like an absolute battle avoidance right.

‘It’s definitely a decent relic.’

Although there is a downside that it is difficult to use against a challenger…

Actually, it is difficult to know where to use it against a challenger, so you don’t have to worry too much about it.

Feeling satisfied, I took the green-colored dimension exile ticket.

With that, the deal is over.

?Achievement ‘Merchant of Death’ has been achieved.]

?The skill ‘Life Threat (D+)’ is created.?

…A strange achievement that I don’t know why happened, but it didn’t matter because it was still a gain.

After taking the holy relic like that, Cliff Sherid paid attention and quietly spoke to me.

Also very carefully.

[ …I’ll go now. Anyway, even if I don’t have one, it’s not difficult to overcome the ordeal. The role-playing achievement rate only needs to exceed 70%. ]

He tried his best to tell me how useless he was in clearing the 20th floor ordeal.

In addition, how great is the value of the holy relic that came into hand.

Of course, I heard it with one ear and let it out with the other.

[I’m sure clearing the ordeal itself isn’t impossible…

but that would be the case too…

[Still, I’m the kind of person who takes care of everything I can. ]

Because I had no intention of saving Cliff Sherid in the first place.

?Using Divinity < Death >.?

?The nature of the god of death reacts and the nature of death embedded in the divine power is strengthened.?

Kwajijijijikjik—!

The dark red divinity overflowed from his body and flowed sharply.

In the blink of an eye, it hit Cliff Sherid and eroded his body.

It was only then that Cliff Sherid realized the situation and shouted in great rage.

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…! damn it! I followed what he was told, but why did he betray me like this…!! ]

But it was me who was dumbfounded.

[You tried to kill me in the first place, and it seems like that won’t work, so why are you so confident about trying to threaten me? ]

Even if I had the exclusive effect ‘Persuasion (C+)’ obtained through Ascension, I would have believed the enemy so easily.

I couldn’t understand.

From the beginning, he led a large army of challengers with the intention of killing me in the citadel…

Did he really think that I would see it?

‘I have no conscience.’

Of course, from his point of view, it was not completely incomprehensible.

The gaze of the godhead who had protected him until now was also blocked, and even if he became an apostle, the gap with the godhead would be clear.

So he must have wanted to avoid battle as much as possible.

Even to the extent of handing over the holy relic.

However, in the end, it was tantamount to hastening his ruin.

[Do you think you will die in a place like this! I am… an apostle favored by the god of banishment! ]

?Due to the divine < exile >, the divine < death > is exiled to its original place.?

Cliff Sherid’s howl screamed, and my divine power, which gnawed away his life, was expelled at once.

But I didn’t stop and scattered the holy power.

over and over again.

Like we’re going to fight until we’re exhausted.

[ no use! ]

Correspondingly, Cliff Sherid also used the divine < Exile >, and soon the battle became close to a war of attrition.

?Divinity < Block > creates a protective shield that blocks challenger Han Seong-yoon’s divinities.

?

It was worth it.

Currently, it drives away the divine < Death > with the highest killing power I have, and now it is to the point of blocking the divine < Death > at all.

In fact, it was as if all means of attack using divine power had been blocked.

?All stats are reduced by 10% by the authority ‘Token of those who have been cast out of the abyss’.?

?Magic consumption increases in proportion to the battle duration by the authority ‘Flower that blooms in chaos’.

? The accumulation of mental fatigue is greatly accelerated by the

whisper of ‘. ‘

Most of them were debuff-type powers that made the

long-term battle itself difficult.

Even the authority ‘whisper from the depths’ was offset with the authority ‘bright view index’.

‘Even if we play a long game like this, we’ll win, but there’s no need to do that.’

Apotheosis is not a force that can be maintained without time constraints.

If time goes on like this and deification is canceled, then you won’t be able to use the divine powers.

Then, the challengers who are stuck in the ice zone will come to kill me in earnest.

So…

?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 sight.?

Before that happens, as much as possible. We had to get rid of Cliff Sherid quickly.

Chow-!

[Ouch…! ]

In the blink of an eye, Cliff Sheriff’s torso was cut in half.

His wildly quivering green eyes seemed to ask.

How on earth could he have approached me as if he were skipping space?

It was worth it.

‘I must have been very surprised because I didn’t use Shunbo even when I was fighting Seir Nagrat.’

It was an authority that was not used even in the battle against the godhead.

Cliff Sherid probably never imagined that something like this could exist.

Sunbo is the power to move so fast that it is almost impossible for even the godhead to follow with the eyes.

There was no choice but to be helpless if you didn’t read the activation harbinger in advance.

[Lee Ik…! ]

He gritted his teeth and created a window of green light to try to intercept it all at once… But

would it be meaningful to use magic at all when the distance was so narrowed?

I immediately swung the sword in my left hand and cut his throat.

It’s also very neat.

Slow-!

?Absorbed the spirit of challenger ‘Cliff Sherid’.?

?Challenger Seongyoon Han’s victory against the apostle brought her 1.1% closer to ascension.?

?Exclusive effect ‘Snake’s Tongue (D)’ as a special reward for < Divinity Ascension > ‘”

?From now on, all tricks of challenger Han Seong-yoon will be compensated to some extent.?

After reading all the messages that filled my eyesight, I smiled as I brushed off the blood on my sword.

[I never thought I would get a special reward again. ]

The rise rate of Ascension itself is not too bad and even acquired the exclusive effect ‘Snake’s Tongue (D)’.

For killing just one apostle, it was a huge gain.

?The challenger who played the role of [Pope], Cliff Sherid, has been eliminated.?

?Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s [Role-playing battle achievement rate] has increased by 30%.?

Even now, the [Role-playing battle achievement rate] has already reached 60%. So…

If you get an additional achievement rate of about 40%, the 20th floor ordeal will be completely cleared.

If that happens, you will undoubtedly get a big share of the additional breakthrough reward.

And you will be able to get even higher profits by using the right to increase rewards.

‘I can’t wait to see how strong he will become after clearing it.’

But that was only for a moment.

?I know that it feels good to get an unexpected reward… but this is not a situation that I would like very much from the point of view of me.

It sounded as if Damcheonwu’s voice was resounding in his ears.

It’s as if this situation itself is very awkward.

In response, I immediately put a smile on my face and asked Dam Chun-wu a question.

[ …what else are you talking about? ]

-Think about it. This 20th floor integration ordeal was more hostile to you than I thought. Divinity, Apostle… There are many strangely strong enemies.

[What is that? ]

?That’s the problem.

and.

?The [Hero] and the [Pope], each of whom you have to deal with, occupy the positions of Godhead and Apostle…

the next moment.

?Can’t you guess what the [Saintess] side will be like next?

Deed-!

Suddenly, the ground shook greatly, and a large crack appeared in the ice sacred ground.

It’s nothing different…

Kwajangchang-!

?The sacred < rules > will be discontinued due to the destruction of the sacred ground.?

The sacred ground, which had been used well so far, was destroyed at once.

In the blink of an eye, too.

The ice-covered land soon regained its original form, and the buff effect it had been receiving so far disappeared.

?The authority ‘King of Winter’ does not meet the conditions and is disabled.?

?All stats increase by 10% and the cold immunity state is cancelled.?

However, the really important thing was not the buff.

The challengers, who had been immobilized by the ice until now, were released from restraints all at once.

Even…

?The God of Balance consumes divine power and the authority of Advent to cast < Advent >.? ?Since

you cast < Advent > on the official apostle ‘Gloria’, you can fully use the divine power.?

?Hierarchical Ordeal Since it matches the difficulty level, some myths and powers possessed by the godhead are changed to a usable state.” [

This is not a tournament or something…]

And that is with the saintess who received < Advent > on her back.

[It’s unfair to the point of being dirty once. ]

At that, I frowned as I looked at the saintess spreading divine power over there.

?Faced enemies that were difficult for the user to handle.?

?The skill ‘Indomitable Will’ is activated.?

That’s probably the case…

?The special spell activation conditions have been met.?

?Exclusive spell < Despise the Strong (????) > is activated.” “All stats and skill efficiency increase

by
100% until the end of the battle.
