332. Battlefield of the Gods (3)
The moment you enter the ordeal is the same as always.
?Entering the 26th floor of the Tower of Trials.?
?Difficulty – Hard?
?The subject of the ordeal is ‘The Battlefield of the Gods’.?
?I hope that the challenger will have a satisfactory result at the end of his ordeal.?
System messages appear before your eyes . It rises and a new space is revealed.
“…”
I don’t know where, but there were vegetation all over the place.
But even so, it didn’t feel particularly natural.
Should I say it’s like looking at a playground filled with artificial grass?
All the environments here seemed to have been artificially created through someone’s hands, not created naturally.
That’s very certain.
‘What…’
It’s not even that.
“What is this again?”
As if nothing had been seen so far, there was something more foreign in the sky.
“….”
Sky.
There was something like a black orb in the endlessly bright sky.
Even in a dirty and heterogeneous form, like a mixture of the divine powers of various deities.
‘It’s roughly similar to the source of the godhead I saw on the 18th floor…’
And I narrowed my eyes as I looked at the black sphere for a while.
‘It’s heterogeneous.’
It was worth it.
The black sphere, presumed to have been mixed with the holy power of the gods, was not like the egg of a god.
Even if faith were concentrated in that place, a divinity could not be born there.
If I had to question it, it would just be the accumulation of the divine power of the gods in one place.
In fact, it meant that it wasn’t even the source of a godhead, so I couldn’t figure out why there was such a thing there.
“…I don’t know anything at all.”
But there was no time to question it.
?Starting the 26th floor ordeal.?
?Remaining time – 1 year?
?Order breakthrough condition – conquering at least 4 of [Battlegrounds of the Gods] within the remaining time?
?Order failure condition – challenger’s death or remaining time End?
?Trial Breakthrough Reward – Brilliant Divine Essence (SSS+)?
?Trial Failure Penalty-Death?
A new system message appeared in front of me before I knew it, announcing the start of the ordeal.
?The battlefield of the gods…
It was then.
?Only on the 26th floor, something like the battlefield of the gods comes out as an ordeal…?
Suddenly, the blade of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword hummed and Damcheonwu’s voice was heard.
?At this point, I can’t even set a mere challenger as the criterion for trials.
Then, as if slightly surprised, I touched the blade of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword and spoke.
“Do you really know about this place?”
It was worth it.
In fact, this is a type of ordeal that I have never seen before while climbing the tower.
So, some basic understanding of the situation would be necessary…
but if it could be known through the Ego Sword Damcheonwu, there was no choice but to benefit greatly.
-…okay. battlefield of the gods. I know about this place.
Did you notice that thought?
-So maybe I can tell you about this place.
Before he knew it, Damcheonwu continued to say that he would tell us about the place called the Battlefield of the Gods.
-And more than anything, it’s a place that has a lot to do with you, so I had to explain it once anyway.
But when I heard his words, I couldn’t help but frown.
“Anyway, at most it’s a place where the gods fight, so what the hell does that have to do with it?”
It was because I couldn’t figure out why the battlefield of the gods was related to me.
-The speculation that it was a place where the gods fought was certainly correct…
but that was only for a moment.
-Apart from that, its origins must be close to you.
and.
– No wonder.
next moment.
?…Originally, this place was one of the test sites that the Tower made to mold an ancient deity.
At that, I had to be stunned with the feeling that my heart stopped.
***
In the blink of an eye, I tightly gripped the sword wave of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword with my mouth hardened.
“…The Battlefield of the Gods is one of the testing grounds where ancient deities were to be molded?”
There was a shock as if his heart stopped, but it was only for a moment.
-That’s right.
As soon as Dam Chun-wu’s words continued, even the shock had no choice but to escape.
-The Battlefield of the Gods is an artificially created battlefield where the Tower invites numerous gods.
“….”
-There is only one reason why so many deities have gathered here. ancient deity. Using the fact that it could become a bait, the tower called the gods here.
“What is that…”
I couldn’t understand.
“What’s the connection between being an ancient deity and the gods fighting each other?”
It is not logical to say that the tower created this ‘battlefield of the gods’.
But that wasn’t enough, and now the tower hosted a war between the gods using the ancient deity as bait?
I don’t know why, but I don’t know if that makes sense.
After all, just because gods fight with each other doesn’t mean they can achieve the level of ancient gods.
“I don’t think a godhead originally grows like that, right?”
The path that God ascends to the realm beyond is not accomplished through slaughter.
Originally, a god is a law that becomes stronger after endless training based on faith and the divinity of concepts.
There is no way to become strong through a mere war between gods.
Unless you’re an irregular like me who climbed the Tower of Trials and gained necromancy and the myth < The Possibility of Transcendence >, that would be the case.
“I don’t think I can understand anything other than that, even if it’s the tower that created the battlefield of the gods.”
So I couldn’t understand Dam Chun-wu’s words.
-…I guess so.
And he didn’t deny it either.
-God builds up a long period of training based on the concept of divinity and faith. It is undeniable that this is the growth direction of the Godhead.
“If so…”
– But the tower broke that fixed idea.
“…?”
-And you must have seen the result of breaking that stereotype?
At that moment, I immediately raised my head to look at the sky and opened my eyes wide.
“No way…”
The black sphere.
There was a correct answer in the essence of concentrated power with the divine power of numerous gods mixed together.
Only then did I smile and figure out why it was like that.
“You mean that’s an essence that can become an ancient deity?”
And Damcheonwu, as if recognizing it well, spoke while trembling with the blade of the Blood Heaven Demon Sword.
-That’s the correct answer.
Dam Chun-wu continued as if the explanation had finally reached some level of explanation of the background.
-The battlefield of the gods exists only for the sake of the concentrated essence of that divinity in the first place.
“…”
-Every time the deities here die, their divinity accumulates in the black sphere and eventually turns into a heavenly treasure.
“In a word, it means that it’s like the ability I have.”
At this point, it is easy to understand.
In fact, the mechanism of the ‘Battlefield of the Gods’ would be similar to my Necromancy ability.
Isn’t it a form of accumulating the sacred power of numerous divinities in one place only for one victor at the end?
‘It’s like necromancy in that it takes someone else’s power.’
Even though it was unknown why the tower created a board like the battlefield of the gods, it could not be dismissed as meaningless.
‘If one person takes on the power of many gods, there’s definitely a possibility of becoming an ancient deity.’
However, that would not be the way to become a general ancient deity.
That’s also true, because ‘Battlefield of the Gods’ is not a way to raise the level of divinity without flaws like the myth < The Possibility of Transcendence >.
It only seeks to rise to a higher level by concentrating and cramming the divine power of many divine powers into one place.
So I couldn’t dismiss the end result as good.
“If I tried to raise the level of divinity in that way, the probability of failure would be higher.”
In fact, isn’t it a gamble where the probability of failure is higher than the probability of success?
no.
Even if he laid the foundation for becoming an ancient deity through the battlefield of the gods, it could not be a proper ancient deity.
Perhaps the ego is not whole because of the many divinities mixed together.
‘I can’t call something like that an ancient deity.’
But even so, there was nothing more to say.
“No matter what, the fact that we have to conquer the battlefield of the gods…”
It won’t change the fact that we have to conquer the battlefield of the gods anyway.
‘For now, it’s better to do what needs to be done.’
so.
“It’s the battlefield of the gods…”
Now there was nothing to waste time on.
“Still, it would be nice to have a higher level of deity.”
I smiled expectantly at him and soon walked away.
“That way, we can lay the foundation to go beyond the realm of ancient deity.”
I’m guessing…
‘At least with the Shinhwa < Possibility of Transcendence >, I’ll be able to accumulate about 10% of [Transcendence].’
It seemed likely that he would grow a lot here.
***
Battlefield of the Gods.
It was known as a treasure trove attractive to many deities.
As a place of opportunity for the deities who had been weeded out because the development of divinity had stopped, they could raise the level of divinity itself under the leadership of the tower.
?The clumsy God of Wrath sighs at his own situation.?
However, not all of those seeking the status of an ancient deity came to the battlefield of the gods.
[ …haaa-. ]
Should I say they are vague even if they are slightly divine?
It’s not like they’re aiming for a level like an ancient deity…
There are some who have made it their wish to be promoted to a formal deity.
And Kelly, who had the name of ‘a clumsy god of wrath’, was one of them.
[ …why is this body doing this here. ]
It looks like a human body is attached to the head of a lion.
Kelly let out a sigh with a face like a lion, and continued to bleed.
And as he continued his steps, he narrowed his eyes as he recalled his situation.
‘…The Tower has been said to be an opportunity to become an official deity, but I never thought it would be a place overflowing with monsters like high-level deities.’
Kelly is the weakest one here.
While most of the gods who came to the Battlefield of the Gods were official gods or high-ranking gods aiming for ancient gods, he was too weak.
that too seriously.
‘If I knew it would turn out like this when the damn tower invited me, I should have refused!’
And Kelly had to feel it with her body.
A place dotted with monsters that can cause disaster and collapse space with just one gesture.
Here, Kelly had to evacuate to the farthest place from the Battlefield of the Gods, losing all the apostles he had brought with him.
[ Big. ]
Kelly barely contained his rage, his face contorted like a thug.
[ …Still, it’s still too early to give up. ]
But, isn’t Kelly’s own life still attached?
Then he thought he could start anew.
In fact, that’s why they came to the farthest place from the center of the battlefield of the gods.
[ …I’m sure there are a lot of lesser deities in this outskirts. This body will become stronger by taking them as servants. ]
And.
[ that…. ]
Is his luck still continuing to some extent?
Not too long after, Kelly found a man.
Even though the man wore twin swords at his waist, he felt like a kind of inanimate object without feeling any energy.
‘Prey!’
And in an instant, Kelly straightened up his distorted face and smiled broadly.
‘I never thought I’d meet such a disgraceful mortal in a place like this!’
On the battlefield of the gods, those who were not gods were in fact only followers or apostles of others.
But in this situation, a person who feels no energy appears?
In fact, it is close to the meaning of a mortal who wanders without divinity.
Only then did Kelly flick her tongue and let out the eyes of a lion.
‘If I catch and eat that bastard, I’ll be able to recover from the wounds I received from the god!’
Suddenly, his eyes were black with greed.
‘You’re lucky!’
Currently, Kelik is seriously injured on the Battlefield of the Gods.
Since Kelly inherited the thick blood of beastmen resembling lions, he was able to recover from fatal wounds by consuming life.
So he couldn’t have any doubts about this situation.
In fact, this situation would be like an oasis appearing in front of a traveler walking in the desert.
I couldn’t even think of the man in front of me as a god because I couldn’t even feel his presence like an inanimate object.
Just…
[ Hahaha! After all, this body is not destined to end here! Mortal, I will eat your body well. ]
If there is a problem with it, it will be one.
“A mortal?”
It’s not different-.
“…He’s a funny guy.”
That the man who walked there was not really a mortal.
A man who radiates no energy of any kind, like a pebble on the side of the road.
It is…
