Boundless Necromancer

260. Earth (3)

「Accomplished the achievement ‘Collective Insanity Contagion’.」

「The skill ‘emotional confusion (B+)’ is created.」

「Achievement ‘Attempt to Unify Religions’ has been accomplished…」

「The skill ‘Faith Propagation (C+)’ is created…」

「I achieved the achievement ‘Cultist Holder’…」

“The skill ‘Faith Replenishment (D-)’ is born…”

Achievements accomplished as if blinding.

「※ Transcendence God fulfills the special conditions and acquires the special divine authority appropriate for the rank.」

「※ You have learned the special divine authority ‘Designate a Believer (SS).」

「※ You have learned the special divine authority ‘Power Sergeant (S+)’.」

And even the special divine powers obtained by suddenly satisfying the conditions…

-…her. No, how long has it been since you became an official godhead? Are you already acquiring special divine powers?

As if he was tired of being surprised, Damcheonwu laughed once and said that.

But I couldn’t help but be surprised.

That would be too…

“What is this again?”

Because I couldn’t come up with a reason why system messages suddenly popped up.

It was worth it.

I didn’t expect so many achievements to be created as soon as I returned to the waiting room…

I couldn’t understand why so many achievements were accomplished at once.

‘…was there a trigger of something? What is it that has led to so many achievements?’

Until now, the achievements had not been achieved, so I had no choice but to feel a sense of heterogeneity.

But that was only for a moment.

All of a sudden I remembered one of the system messages that came to my mind earlier.

Not different…

─The skill ‘spread hope’ is activated.

─Hope for you spreads rapidly with the skill ‘Hope spread’.

“…Come to think of it, the skill did activate.”

It reminded me of the activation of one of the skills obtained in the 18th floor ordeal.

A skill that accelerates the harvest of faith used during the ordeal clear.

However, it was also a skill that had forgotten its existence because it had no value beyond that.

‘I hadn’t used it properly since the 18th floor ordeal, so I forgot about it.’

Even then, the Hope Propagation skill obtained as an achievement reward would have been activated and numerous achievements must have been obtained.

So, I’m guessing this time, the spread hope skill has something to do with the creation of the achievement…

In fact, I couldn’t be sure because I didn’t know anything specific.

But I wasn’t too worried.

‘…But there’s nothing wrong with getting achievement rewards for now.’

Even if you get a reward you don’t know what it is, you can use it as it is.

Then I roughly cut off my thoughts and turned my consciousness elsewhere.

Even if it wasn’t like this anyway, there were a lot of things to pay attention to.

After clearing the 21st floor ordeal, I really gained tremendous strength.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that confirmation of this is an essential process.

so….

“Resume selection.”

「The spirit piece ‘■■■[3/3]’ has satisfied the required number of charges.」

「You can select and acquire a Latent Divinity by consuming the Spirit Shard ‘■■■[3/3]’.」

「Currently, the potential divinities that can be acquired are < Gourt >, < Breath >, and < Blessing >.

「※ At this time, the potential divinity that was not selected will not appear as an option later.」

First of all, it is time to resume the acquisition of divinity, which was delayed.

< Gourt > < Breath > < Blessing >.

It’s probably the deities that each of the native deities you defeated previously had one…

Surprisingly, I didn’t have to worry too long.

―< Gourt > and < Breath >. Except for < Divine Protection >, the rest are divinities that I have already seen.

Like he said, two of the options for learning divinity had already been seen.

I immediately recalled the divine powers I saw in the battle with the native godhead.

But there was no divinity I liked so much.

‘< Gourt > is the power to distort space and absorb attacks, and < Breath > is a dragon’s breath with one fire power.”

< Gourt > and < Breath > are decent divinities that aren’t bad no matter where you use them.

However, even if < Gluttony > is said to be so, < Breath > is a slightly higher level than the unquenchable mortal flame.

Therefore, < Breath > was not worth choosing, and < Gourt > was not very attractive.

If it’s all about erasing attacks anyway, there are many similar powers.

In fact, < Gourt > and < Breath > were not necessary no matter what I chose, so I chose < Blessing > after thinking for a while.

and….

“Selection complete.”

「Divine < Blessed Protection > is replaced with potential.」

next moment.

“We’ve come very close to the opening of the upper section.”

“Some of the faith you acquire from now on will be consumed to open the Merchant War.”

「When faith is consumed to achieve the opening of the upper tier battle, you will acquire abilities related to divinity.」

An interesting story appeared after a long time.

***

Sangdanjeon (上丹田).

It seems that the power came from the power of the Heavenly Demon’s body obtained after defeating the Heavenly Demon…

Originally, I thought it was an ability related to martial arts, but as time passed, it was only now that the outline was drawn.

‘Are you sure. Sangdanjeon is a power that is directly connected not only to martial arts, but also to divine power.’

The more divinities you get, the closer you get to the opening of the upper level battle.

Now, as a system message, it was said that when the upper level battle is opened, you will get the ability related to the godhead.

Undoubtedly, it could be seen that Sangdanjeon is a power related to divinity.

However, since there is nothing to know now anyway, I turned off my interest for now.

‘I’ll find out what this is when I open the upper section hall later.’

After that, I activated the newly acquired divinity < Divine Protection >.

「I use the divine < protection >.」

「By consuming divine power, cast a blessing that excludes the external divinity once.」

「For those who have received protection once, they cannot be granted another protection for 12 hours.」

Is it because he has now gained the title of ‘transcendent god’?

‘It’s nice to be able to use divine powers without deification now.’

After gaining the official divine name through ascension, he was able to use divine powers without having to use deification.

This is one of the advantages gained by becoming a true god.

As soon as I felt the satisfaction of that, I was able to notice the ability of the Divinity < Guardian >.

Not different…

“Are you designating a specific target and giving it a blessing that erases the divinity once?”

It could be said to be the power of one-time exclusion of divinity.

Whatever it is, it can be erased once with the divine < Prophecy >.

The scope of application was not narrow as the subject of application even included oneself.

‘< Gluttony > and < Breath > are so good that they can’t even compare?’

Perhaps this is the divinity possessed by the giant of the mountain who protected the spirit…

It seemed that he had died by touching the divinity < Death > without even having time to use this divinity.

It was worth it.

The native deities resurrected by Karnar had no will.

‘I absolutely followed Karnar’s instructions, so maybe I couldn’t use the Divine < Divine Protection > because there were no instructions.’

Well, even if I used the Divine < Divine Protection > to block the Divine < Death >, nothing would have changed.

Still, I felt sympathy for him to think that he had died that way without ever having used such a trump card.

But that was only for a moment.

Now I have chosen the divinity, and the effect has been confirmed.

Then, without wasting time, it was time to move on to the next one.

‘It seems that most of the skills obtained through achievements are not useful.’

Most of the skills acquired through achievement rewards were related to faith.

However, upon checking, there were some skills that were not practical.

That’s a very big word too.

‘The only really useful skill is spreading faith.’

Spreading the Faith (C+).

It has a passive effect that increases the speed at which faith spreads, even if the skill level is lowered.

So I decided that it would be better to leave this alone and replace the rest with the seal of offering.

and….

「The Seal of Offering (SS-) exclusive effect ‘Offering (供養)’ is activated.」

「I received a total of 8 skills from myself.」

「The corresponding abilities are converted into divine power and stored in the heart.」

As soon as all the skills obtained through achievements were replaced with divine power, he opened his inventory.

Now I have to check the clear reward of the 21st floor ordeal.

Like that, I took out items in turn from my inventory and read the description window.

Also very carefully.

“The scabbard of a certain swordsman who pursued mystery”

「Rating: SSS-」

“A scabbard containing the conviction of a swordsman who pursued mysteries in ancient times.”

「The performance of the sword increases every 48 hours when a B+ grade or higher sword item is stored in the scabbard.」

「The increase in the performance of the sword is made by something unrelated to the exclusive effect and grows mainly through item buffs.」

The basic reward of the 21st floor ordeal was a red scabbard with geometric patterns engraved on it.

‘The performance is fine in its own way.’

To be honest, I thought it was a bit low level to be treated as an SSS-class item.

Because it doesn’t bring any direct benefit in battle.

But instead, there were no restrictions on improving the performance of sword items.

With enough time, any B+ or higher sword item could be made into the best sword, whatever it was.

In response, I immediately put the scabbard around my waist and inserted the Blood Heaven Demon Sword into it.

“Hourglass dyed in black and white”

「Rating: S+」

「An hourglass of an unknown divinity dyed in black and white.」

「When challenger Han Seong-yoon uses it, the exclusive effect ‘end of time’ can be activated.」

「※ The user’s time is stopped for 4 seconds, and during that time, it is not interfered with by external forces.」

「※ After using the exclusive effect ‘End of Time’, a cooldown of ‘7 days’ is created.」

What I got as an additional reward for clearing the 21st floor ordeal was an hourglass colored in black and white.

It’s not that special outwardly…

The sand in the hourglass is black and white, creating beauty.

Even the performance wasn’t all that great.

‘Even though it’s an S+ grade item, it’s incredibly effective.’

By stopping time, it was possible to temporarily exclude being affected by external forces.

If it can be used at the right time, it will be able to consume even the decisive blow meaninglessly.

Depending on how you use it, it could be a survival tool or a trump card.

Then I smiled and took the black-and-white hourglass in my arms.

“Traces of an Ancient Godhead”

「Rating: S+」

“It is a trace of an ancient deity that was stained with darkness a long time ago.”

「You can obtain the divinity < Memory > that dwells in the traces of the ancient deity by consuming 8 Latent Divinities.」

「※However, there is a possibility that your mind will be eroded by the traces of the ancient deity while acquiring divinity < Memory >.」

I saw a small black box obtained as an additional clear reward for the 21st floor ordeal.

Suddenly, black darkness was pouring out of the black box.

It’s also very powerful.

“This….”

As I read the item description, I slightly frowned.

It was worth it.

A level that a human without divinity could not handle and could go crazy just by holding it in his hand.

It can be said that it is an item that contains the energy of God so clearly.

“Is it possible to obtain the divinity of an ancient deity?”

It was interesting.

Even if you have to consume 8 latent divinities, you can get one of the divinities of the ancient deity?

To be honest, if I had enough latent divinity, I wanted to get the divinity of an ancient deity right now.

But I couldn’t.

‘You can’t offer 8 potential divinities each. And there is a possibility of being eroded by the power of an ancient deity.’

Even if it is the divinity of an ancient deity, I do not have many latent divinities.

In addition, even if you recklessly obtain the divinity of an ancient deity, your mind could be destroyed by the power of the ancient deity.

At least I couldn’t write it now.

however….

“Still, it might be worth using if you acquire additional potential divinities later.”

The story will be different if you defeat enemies later and gain potential divinities.

After checking all the rewards for clearing the 21st floor, I quickly turned around.

Next, we looked at the exclusive effects obtained from the < Possibility of Transcendence >, a myth obtained from battles with indigenous deities.

However, there were only two exclusive effects that could be activated arbitrarily.

「The exclusive effect ‘Distortion’ is activated.」

「Consumes divine power to cause distortion in the designated space.」

「The exclusive effect ‘Necromancer’ is activated.」

「By consuming divine power, I revive the corpse and serve it as a servant.」

“Is this all you can use?”

All other exclusive effects were applied like passives.

The exclusive effect ‘Dragon’s Heart’ increases the amount of horsepower by 1.8 times, and the exclusive effect ‘Spirit Protection’ is favored by the spirits.

So both are applied passively.

Surprisingly, the exclusive effects did not have much to look at.

‘I think the only thing that can be used in battle is distortion that twists space.’

Necromancer is an ability I don’t like very much, and spirit protection won’t be usable in battle.

After examining the newly acquired exclusive effects, I turned my attention to other rewards.

Not different…

“Now I can confirm the powers.”

Now is the time to find out about the newly acquired powers.

***

For now, I decided to check them one by one, starting with the special divine powers I just obtained.

“The special divine power ‘Designate a believer’ is activated.”

“You can harvest faith from followers by designating them.”

「Currently, the number of followers worshiping the transcendental god is [0].」

「Currently, the number that can be designated as a follower of the Transcendental God is [96782].」

designation of a believer.

This special divine power obtained by satisfying the new conditions was related to the harvest of faith.

Although you can’t designate an apostle like other deities, you can now officially become a follower.

After that, I couldn’t help but open my eyes.

‘It’s an essential power for a godhead.’

In response, I immediately designated everyone as a follower using the power of designating a follower.

“The disciple designation has been completed.”

「Currently, the number of followers worshiping the transcendental god is [96782].」

「Currently, the number of people who can be designated as followers of the transcendence god is [0].」

and.

“…”

It was felt.

It means that faith flows in more quickly than before from those who have been designated as believers.

However, although the speed was faster than before, it was not very special.

Wouldn’t it be faster to rob a certain deity of faith?

‘Can’t I still achieve that much efficiency with 90,000 followers?’

But the regret was only momentary.

It was worth it.

Compared to other deities, I am still no different from a newborn baby.

You just need to slowly increase the number of followers.

‘There’s nothing to be impatient about.’

Anyway, there were many means to supply faith.

After clearing my mind like that, I immediately activated another special divine power.

In other words, the special divine authority that was obtained at the same time as obtaining the designation as a Shinto in the past.

but….

「The special divine authority ‘Power Sergeant’ cannot be activated because it does not meet the conditions.」

「The number of followers worshiping the god of transcendence must exceed [300000] to bestow authority.」

The authority that is presumed to be able to bestow authority has yet to be used.

The reason for not using it was simple.

This is because the number of followers obtained by designating a believer is extremely insufficient.

Seeing the system message like that, I clicked my tongue and sighed.

“This is another condition that must be satisfied…”

I wasn’t even surprised anymore.

Even though I officially became a god, I still lack a lot.

I felt the need to accumulate more divinity and faith.

That’s a lot too.

“It’s a long way to go.”

Compared to the ancient gods, the road still felt far away.

But there was no time to be so immersed in contemplation.

There was another authority that needed to be confirmed.

Not different…

「The divine power exclusive ‘List’ is activated.」

「You can designate up to 100 people out of all beings within 1000m.」

“The beings on the list of deaths approach death every minute and become greatly weakened.”

「Anyone who continues to fight for more than 44 minutes while being listed in the Shinigami list will be eroded by the divine < Death >.」

This was the case with the god exclusive power obtained by accomplishing the achievements of the god of death in the 21st floor authority.

“…”

At that, I read the system message, lost for words, and laughed.

‘There was no really crazy authority.’

Should I say it’s a reward worthy of the Shinigami’s achievements?

Right now, I wanted to use this god-only power with ridiculous performance.

I’ve never gotten such a heart-pounding combat optimization power recently.

and….

「A new message has arrived from my friend ‘Baekryeonhwa’.」

next moment.

「There are currently 187 unread messages in the chat history of your friend ‘Baekryeonhwa’.」

As if fate, an opportunity to properly use the Authority appeared.
