I, the Weakest Human, Start with a Hundredfold Bonus Talent?

Chapter 189: Chapter189-Internal Strife

"In the Silent Sea, Snickers are considered upper-tier monsters with significant combat strength. The one I summoned is level 65. It wouldn't stop unless it sensed something terrifying. Either something is approaching, or... we're directly above the Silent Scar."

John let out a deep breath, unfolding his map. After constantly checking his position, he was pretty sure they had arrived.

The Silent Scar was where Leviathan, a powerful creature, lay dormant. It made sense for Snickers to be afraid to approach.

"We probably need to dive deeper."

John took a deep breath, looking down at the dark abyss below, feeling a rare chill down his spine.

Leviathan, a legendary creature John had seen firsthand, had scales larger than his entire body. It was unimaginable what kind of catastrophic disaster such a creature could cause if it woke up!

So, they had to be extremely careful!

Although such creatures wouldn't easily awaken, if they encountered the Divine Emissary here, as a Demigod tier being, his attacks could potentially wake Leviathan, causing an uncontrollable and irreversible disaster!

With that thought, John exhaled deeply and looked at Deception.

"If you're really reluctant, stay here. Snickers will protect you."

"It? Rely on a monster to protect me? Don't be ridiculous! I'll go with you. You can't face the Divine Emissary alone."

Deception's rare show of loyalty was clearly just him masking his fear. John knew full well he wasn't being gallant; he was simply scared.

Following John was more reassuring than staying behind.

"Then let's go. Remember, follow my lead unless you want to die here."

...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One after another, heavy thuds echoed as Qing was sent flying like a kite with a broken string. He crashed into the arrows casually thrown by Hunt, piercing his palm!

"If given more time for you to fully grow, you might have been a formidable opponent. But you don't have that chance. As long as I have this armor, you can't defeat me."

The Hunt was somewhat displeased with War interfering in her battle, but since they were currently on the same side, she couldn't say much.

"At this point, you're all battered and broken. Are you still not willing to give up?"

In just an hour, Qing had been beaten into a bloody mess by War, with barely any intact bones left.

Exiled Immortal's arms had been twisted and hung limply at odd angles, rendering him unable to fight. Helena was in the best condition among them, but she was also covered in wounds, with cuts from arrows all over her body.

Indeed, the gap between them and a Divine Emissary couldn't be bridged easily, not even with a Demigod tier piece of equipment.

Especially these two Divine Emissaries before them, who were clearly highly skilled in combat.

Their combat strength was probably far superior to the Divine Emissary of the God of Fire and Forge they had encountered before. Even if all seven of them were present, the outcome might not change.

"This is your final warning: join us, or die."

War stepped forward, lightly pressing her foot on Exiled Immortal's chest. The immense pressure made it hard for him to breathe, his face turning red and then blue.

But just then, to everyone's surprise, the Hunt suddenly drew her bow, aiming an arrow at War, and released the string without a moment's hesitation.

A powerful force struck from behind, leaving a scratch on War's armor and sending her flying. She staggered a few steps before barely managing to stand upright.

"Do you realize what you're doing?" War stared at Hunt in disbelief.

In contrast, Hunt remained calm. "I said, as long as she willingly hands over the Godslayer Bow, I will let them leave. So, you can't kill these three yet."

"You're insane, completely insane! It's just a bow. Have you forgotten our mission?"

"I haven't forgotten the mission. Even if I spare them this time, I'll kill them the next. But the Godslayer Bow must stay!"

"So, you're ready to fight me?"

"If it makes you understand my stance, I don't mind."

Seeing this, Exiled Immortal was bewildered, the pain in his arms seeming to lessen.

"What... is going on? They're suddenly fighting each other?"

"Qing, you can't keep pushing yourself. You're too injured. If you keep fighting, you'll die."

Helena sighed, pouring HP potions into Qing's mouth one after another, barely keeping his HP from dropping to a critical level.

"We can't beat them... We really can't..."

Qing couldn't penetrate War's armor. Moreover, War's strength was immense, her attacks swift and her combat experience rich. Since she started taking the fight seriously, nine out of ten of Qing's attacks missed, while he couldn't take even a single hit without dire consequences. How could he possibly win?

"I'm thinking of handing over the bow. There's no other way."

It's just a bow. Although losing this Demigod tier weapon would severely weaken Helena's combat power, these items couldn't compare to the lives of her comrades.

If John found out that she sacrificed two comrades for a weapon, he would be very disappointed.

Meanwhile, War and Hunt continued their standoff.

Although neither had attacked, the atmosphere was tense and on the verge of erupting.

War was furious that Hunt had ruined her plans and opposed her at every turn. Hunt, focused solely on the Godslayer Bow, was determined to fulfill her promise. Their conflicting goals left neither willing to back down.

"You better think carefully, Hunt. Everything that happens today, our master will know in detail. Aren't you afraid that letting them go will anger our master and leave you with no place to hide?"

"If I can gain the recognition of the Godslayer Bow, what does it matter if I die? War, I won't say it again. You can leave. I'll handle the rest."

War's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

But ultimately, reason prevailed over impulse. War unclenched her fists and said in a low voice, "When this is over, you'd better have a reasonable explanation for our master. Letting two people with Authority escape carries a heavy price."

"I know, and it's not your concern. Now, leave."

Having said this much, War realized there was no convincing Hunt and decided to drop the idea.

In the end, she didn't dare to attack directly.

If it were just Hunt alone, War would have rushed in to fight without hesitation.

As fellow Divine Emissaries, their combat strength was evenly matched, and either could seriously injure the other.

She only needed one punch to critically wound Hunt, but if Hunt's arrows hit the right spot, they could pierce her armor.

It wasn't worth the risk.

Moreover, the other three were still present. If they chose to intervene suddenly, she'd be fighting four against one, significantly increasing her chances of falling.

Thinking this through, War removed her armor, revealing a beautiful face, though her expression was far from pleasant.

"Just be sure you're ready for the consequences."

War, realizing she had no advantage, turned to leave.

Seeing this, Helena quickly spoke up, calling out to stop her.

"Wait! You can't leave yet!"

"Seeking death!"

"I have three conditions. If you meet them, I will hand over the Godslayer Bow!"

"What use do I have for that bow? Do you think I'm as foolish as Hunt?"

"War, watch your words."

Hunt cast a cold glance at War before returning her gaze to Helena, her voice steady. "State your conditions."

"First, once I hand over the Godslayer Bow, I don't care how many Divine Emissaries, apostles, or other identities you have in Spartonia. You must all leave Spartonia."

This first point was crucial. They had worked hard to understand the main quest of Spartonia, and abandoning it now would make it difficult to face John later.
