The Boundless Necromancer Chapter 202

202. Ancient Godhead (4)

The eyes that floated in the black cloud made of divinity drew an unpleasant arc.

「The god of despair, fall and madness is greedy for your divinity.」

Staring at the system message that popped into my field of vision, I thought with my mouth shut.

What kind of deity is that black cloud, and why is it greedy for my divinity?

“… … .”

But no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure out what the hell the situation was.

It was worth it.

Because the current situation is out of the normal category in many ways.

‘God of despair, fall and madness… … ?’

In the first place, I didn’t even know that there was a deity with three divinities in the deity.

Even for those who were called ancient gods, most of the divinities in their names were fixed as one.

Even just by looking at it, it was easy to tell that it was an unusual deity.

It was because the divine power felt in the black cloud was at the same level as combining several ancient gods.

It’s not enough to have a spirit that I’ve never seen before, so it’s not enough to have this much divine power… … .

‘I think I know why Dam Chun-wu was so frightened.’

Lunatic difficulty.

I thought that the name of the difficulty was well worth it.

But that was only for a moment.

I’m sorry… … !

Suddenly, something like tentacles sprouted from the black cloud, and I heard something like a hum.

[Give me… … . mortal… … . that… … . It’s not the power for you… … . ]

It was a prophecy mixed with noise, like listening to a radio broadcast full of noise.

As soon as I heard those words, I felt the magic power in my body fluctuate greatly.

Then, some of the magical energy in his body was dyed black and he could no longer move according to his will.

as if it were contaminated.

“What is this… … .”

In response, I immediately frowned and spread divinity through my body.

Hwaaak!

A dazzling golden light rippled through the body, spreading energy, and soon the magic within the body was freed from contamination.

「I survived the despair, fall, and the power of the god of madness once.」

At that time, the Blood Heaven Demon Sword vibrated loudly and Damcheonwu’s voice was heard.

-Damn it… … ! Sungyoon Han! You have to get out of your seat right away!

The situation changed completely before he could react to the extremely urgent voice.

Kwaaang-!

Suddenly, a tentacle sprouted from a black cloud and plunged to the ground.

Then, as if injecting something into the land, its size was inflated.

“Due to the divinity <fall>, the power of the planet in contact with the divinity declines.”

「Due to the divinity <Despair>, the life force of the planet in contact with the divinity is cut off.」

「Due to the divinity <Madness>, the source of the planet in contact with the divinity is altered.」

and… … .

“… … .”

As soon as the divine powers were activated one after another, I was shocked with my eyes wide open.

That would be too… … .

Coo-gu-gu-!

Because the ground was dyed black in the blink of an eye by divine authority, and the intent to kill began to vibrate.

Even the ground, which has been dyed black, is shaken and the ground surface is turned upside down.

Looking at it, I intuitively noticed.

this is… … .

“The god of despair, fall, and madness grins.”

It’s a fight you can never win.

***

This explanation came to my mind through a system message.

The phrases that the planet was eroded by the divine <despair>, <fall>, and <madness> came to mind.

At the time, I didn’t immediately understand what that meant.

I’ve seen deities that have eroded part of the earth, but I’ve never seen one that eroded the planet itself.

But only now the message that the planet has been eroded is starting to make sense.

‘I never thought planetary erosion would really rule the planet itself… … .’

Kwagwagwagwa—!

Murderous intentions fluctuate wildly in all directions.

Black sand grains rained down like shotguns out of nowhere, and a black storm raged in the air accompanied by thunderbolts.

It seemed that the will of the world itself would only kill me.

「The authority skill, ‘Grace of Wind’ is activated.」

「All speeds increase by 110%.」

「Current skill overlap progress – [11]」

In response, I immediately left the seat while activating the power skill.

-You must run away! If you touch that divinity, it’s all over! Get as far away as possible!

With those words, Damcheonwu activated all of the Soul Ego-specific skills.

「The True Blood Demon Sword’s Soul Ego skill, <Magical Explosion (A+)>, is activated.」

“The level of mana in the body rises.”

「The True Blood Demon Sword’s Soul Ego skill <Thought Acceleration (A-)> is activated.」

“It accelerates thinking.”

「The Soul Ego skill <Small Heart (B+)> of True Blood Demon Sword is activated.」

“A virtual magical organ that assists the movement of magical power is created.”

Correspondingly, I immediately activated the engraving skill.

「Activate the <Engraving Skill: Divine Amplification (B+)> of the True Blood Demon Sword.」

Whoa!

The moment when the divinity operating inside the body is greatly amplified and its energy is revealed to the outside.

Chiyi.

One of the black tentacles that had been chasing at speed like a light beam was annihilated when it touched the divine light.

but… … .

[ Cheeky… … ! ]

Did that provoke the opponent?

「<Imprint Skill: Divine Amplification (B+)> is temporarily lost due to Divinity <Fall>.”

The imprinting skill disappeared due to the divine authority <fall>, which was unknown on what principle.

‘shit… … .’

Following the authority to block gaze, it was devastating to have the imprinting skill sealed again.

Presumably, this deity boasting transcendental power would not have been able to defeat it even if it had regained its power.

no.

As much as I regained my strength, the difficulty of the final level of the labyrinth must have also increased… … .

Maybe it was better now that the difficulty was adjusted because he couldn’t regain his strength.

‘If I had regained all my strength in the final layer of the labyrinth, I might have had to deal with it as a body rather than an incarnation.’

Calmly thinking, in the current situation, there was no way to defeat the god of despair, fall, and madness.

‘As long as there is <Crash>, there is no point in doing anything.’

Even if he was able to use apotheosis, it didn’t seem like he would be able to maintain his apotheosis against a force that even blocked exclusive rights.

But that doesn’t mean the current situation is so good either.

Even if the god of despair, fall, and madness cannot generate power, running away with my life is all I can do.

Of course, there was no way out of this hopeless situation.

‘The condition for clearing the final layer of the labyrinth was to withstand the power of God at least 4 times.’

I had already blocked the magical erosion caused by the prophecy, so the number of times left was about three.

It may not be possible to win, but it is possible to clear it if you endure the attack three times.

however… … .

The problem is that even surviving those three times will be more difficult than imagined.

I’ve gathered enough information about the Divine Authority <Crash>… … .

<Despair> and <Insanity> still had no way of knowing what their abilities were.

It’s just a vague assumption that <Despair> cuts off the connection with something, and <Insanity> erodes something.

‘I still need to gather some more information.’

If you rush to clear the final layer of the labyrinth, you will face dog death.

I continued thinking with my eyes wide open.

In the current situation, I have already lost two cards: the ability to block gaze and the skill to amplify divinity.

But there was a fact that I found out through it.

‘The Divine Power <Fall> cannot be used against unused abilities.’

The <Crash> is that I can’t get rid of my ability at will.

Only abilities that were used at least once were sealed, so this could be said to be reliable information.

Of course, there is a possibility that the god of despair, fall, and madness misunderstood the conditions for triggering <fall> against me.

He probably didn’t do anything to mislead the condition.

The god of despair, fall, and madness was showing great greed for me, and at the same time belittling me as a mortal.

Rather than a precise and sophisticated fight, he must have intended to hit it blindly with force.

‘That’s why they erode the planet like this and drive me into a corner.’

… … .

After thinking for a while, I came to a conclusion.

‘I think I can.’

It seemed that if I used all the tiles in my hand, I would be able to clear the final level of the labyrinth.

There are three remaining counts, but in fact, considering the last resistance skill, the remaining counts are two.

In a word, if you have the means to withstand two attacks, the rest will be taken care of.

I thought maybe even if I swung my sword and deflected small attacks, the remaining count would decrease… … .

Ting!

“Is it a failure?”

Even if he swung his twin swords and knocked out all the grains of sand shot like shotguns, the remaining count did not disappear.

Even the sand grains that were knocked out were shot out with black energy more violently than before.

The cause was immediately discovered.

‘Is the condition for consuming the remaining number of times achieved based on whether or not the power is extinguished?’

I had previously prevented the god of despair, fall, and madness from attempting to erode magical power.

By driving out the divinity of the enemy through my divinity.

At that time, I remembered the message that I had endured properly… … .

Despair, fall, and whether or not the attack attempted by the god of madness disappears is probably the condition for the number of times it endured.

“… … .”

It’s more complicated than you think.

but… … .

“It’s worth a try.”

Nonetheless, the road to victory certainly existed.

***

「Myth <Reversal Hero> is activated.」

“All stats increase by +47.”

「The special buff <Blessing of those who do not fall> is activated.」

「Ability closely related to divinity resists divinity <fall>.」

「※However, this resistance is not absolute, and can be affected when the power of the divine <fall> is concentrated.」

Originally, I was worried that Shinhwa would be sealed by the divine authority <fall>, but… … .

It was possible to be certain now that enough battle data had been accumulated.

‘Seeing that I can’t make the power skill disappear, I can’t use <fall> for powers related to divinity.’

It is that the power inherent in divinity cannot be made to disappear.

So, without hesitation, he invoked the <Reversal Hero> myth.

Mythology is also a power created by accumulating faith in divinity.

But there was an unexpected harvest.

―The protection of those who do not fall… … .

Acquired a special buff called the protection of those who do not fall in <The Warrior of Reversal>.

It was also a buff that made all abilities related to divinity unaffected by <fall>.

―It’s definitely a good ability. This won’t help much in actual combat. you know that too

‘How could I not know that?’

―It is a monster with as many as three divinities in its deity. Even without <fall>, there is <despair>, and even without <despair>, there is <madness>.

‘That’s why you must never come into contact with divine attacks.’

Know.

<Fall> is a cheat key that can be activated without any conditions for abilities that have been used before.

<Despair> and <Insanity> can only be activated for those who have unconditionally touched the divine.

It is a fact that cannot be known.

So Dam Chun-wu told him that he would suffer great losses if he approached him arrogantly after gaining resistance to the <fall>.

but… … .

“I have no intention of sticking around and fighting.”

Now, a new path has been opened with resistance to <fall>.

“Because if you have resistance to <fall>, you can use this too.”

At that, I smiled thickly and activated the skill right away.

「The skill ‘Starlight Star Light’ is strongly activated.」

From now on, the aspect of the battle will be different.

And that too at great speed.
