Chapter 228

228. Temple (1)

Seir Nagrat.

Among the challengers on the 20th floor, the ranker with the third highest ranking was as good as expected.

The Divine Spirit obtained by being chosen by the tower was certainly strong.

I felt satisfied with it.

That’s probably the case...

‘There hasn’t been much change since the ascension, but this is a pretty decent level.’

Because I gained a lot from this battle.

It is also true that the percentage of the ascension effect attached to the myth < Possibility of Transcendence > increased by 4.7%.

As a special reward for Ascension, he obtained the exclusive effect ‘Persuasion (C+)’ and was able to plunder even the divine power with Necromancy.

‘It seems that there is not much time left for the level of divine power to go up.’

But it was only for a moment that he was smiling like that.

「The 4th rule created by the divine < Rule > will disappear.」

「The rule that increases the output of martial arts used in the sacred ground by 100% will be deleted.」

I cooled my emotions right away and the 4th rule in the middle of cutting my holy power into chunks. I cleared the rules and looked around.

Before, I didn’t have time to look around because I didn’t have time...

Now I had enough time to take a closer look at the battlefield.

It was worth it.

‘Because it’s made of divine ice, I can’t remove it that easily.’

It was because the challengers were unable to move due to the ice zone created using the divinity replacement technique.

Of course, some challengers melted the ice with skills or powers and resumed their advance...

but it wasn’t fast enough to reach this fort.

So, I decided to take full advantage of this opportunity.

「Rule 2. Challengers who enter the sacred zone will see the [role] they played in the ordeal on the 20th floor above their heads.」 This

is one of the rules set while dealing with Seir Nagrat...

Although a lot of sacred power is consumed, the system By interfering, it was possible to find out the [role] that was assigned to the trial on the 20th floor.

Currently, everyone who entered the ice area is greatly slowed down.

If a [saint] or a [pope] entered this icy region, they would undoubtedly know their [role] from the message that popped into their heads.

‘Seir Nagrat was a [Hero], so now it’s clear if I defeat the [Saint] and [Pope].’

There wasn’t much time left before clearing the 20th floor ordeal, so I quickly rolled my eyes and read the messages. 「

Challenger ‘

Cargill Sir”s role in the 20th floor ordeal is [Priest].

” The role I was assigned in the floor trial was a [knight]...”

And before long, I was able to find the people I wanted.

“The role that challenger ‘Gloria’ took on in the trials on the 20th floor is [Saint].” A

brilliant blonde saintess wearing a habit that purrs her lips as if in prayer.

「The role that challenger ‘Cliff Sherid’ took on in the 20th floor trial is [The Pope].」

The pope with green hair tries to step back out of the ice zone with a sneaky look.

[I couldn’t believe they were all in the Holy Zone...]

It must have been.

[Wouldn’t waste too much time. ]

Those two were the clear conditions for my 20th floor ordeal.

***

[Saint] and [Pope].

After confirming my role in the 20th floor ordeal, I immediately used Seir Nagrat’s command that I had just absorbed.

Can not help it.

From now on, a fierce battle between the challengers will take place, so if you don’t care, you can use Seir Nagrat’s command carelessly as a shield for necromancy.

It was right to prevent such accidents in advance.

「Absorbs the spirit of Seir Nagrat, the god of words, and permanently increases stats.」

「Muscle strength increased by 3.」

「Agility increased by 2.」 「 Stamina increased by 4.」

「Magic power increased by 3.

It has increased by 9.」 「Durability has increased

The first to be dealt with was the Pope.

‘I don’t know why, but it bothers me that he’s trying to run away quickly.’

It was worth it.

The saintess is memorizing prayers for some reason, but the pope is desperately running away.

In the case of the former, it would be okay to leave it alone, but in the case of the latter, it was certain that it would annoy me if left as it was.

I didn’t like playing hide and seek that unnecessarily protracted time.

“Challenger ‘Cliff Sherid’ has been designated as the approach target for the authority skill ‘Steel Wings’.” 「The

flying speed of the authority skill ‘Steel Wings’ increases by 4 times depending on the conditions.

」

‘Grace of Wind’ is activated.」

「All speeds increase by 80%.」

「Current skill overlap progress – [8]」

Next moment.

Kwagwagwagwagwagwagwang-!

Without exaggeration, I really became a storm and hit the ground where the Pope was.

My eyes opened wide at a speed faster than I could have imagined.

It was worth it.

Originally, I didn’t even think it would accelerate this much.

‘It’s amazing.’

I never thought the movement would change so drastically by increasing the speed several times.

[The commandments are definitely worth using. ]

At that, I smiled lightly and turned my head, and soon I could see the Pope with a pale face.

“Wait a minute...!”

He tried to part his lips urgently, as if he had something to say, but... he

had no intention of listening.

Whatever you say, I don’t think it’s going to be very interesting.

I immediately raised the holy power in my heart and at the same time lightly stepped on the ground with my left foot.

「I use the divinity < death >」

「The nature of the god of death reacts and the nature of death that dwells in the divine power is strengthened.」

And that too, while containing the divinity with the highest killing power I possess.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

In the blink of an eye, the ground turns black and collapses, beyond which the divine power spreads like an infection.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, not even a second.

The divine < Death > directly touched the pope and eroded his body.

I thought with my eyes closed.

‘I’m done with this.’

The divinity < Death > has no means to resist unless it becomes a deity.

In a word, it means that if you do not reach the level of Seir Nagrat, the god of words, you will die as it is.

So I thought the pope would die right away.

...No, that’s exactly what I almost thought.

“The god of expulsion consumes a considerable amount of divine power and allows his follower to become an < Apostle >.”

Until he felt intense movement of divine power in his body.

「< Apostleization > is used on the challenger, Cliff Sherid.」

And then.

“Due to the divine < exile >, the divine < death > is banished to its original

place

.

At that, I opened my eyes wide.

Because I didn’t know that this would happen.

[ ...interesting. ]

Cliff Sherid.

[Is it an apostle after the godhead? ]

He was an apostle chosen by the Godhead.
