The Boundless Necromancer Chapter 251

251. Necromancer (4)

After building the divine realm and driving out the divine and demonic energy that encroached on the earth.

“The contaminated land has been restored to its original state, so I will be alone for a while.”

I immediately moved to a shabby barracks worshiped by the members of the Hermian clan.

It was worth it.

All the tales needed to create a myth have been gathered.

It wouldn’t be meaningful to try to be greatly worshiped any longer.

‘It’s going to be annoying if I show more than this, so I’d better do it in moderation.’

The moment he sent the others out, saying he wanted to be alone here for a while.

Immediately, sitting on the bed in the barracks, I saw the system message that popped into my field of vision.

Before I knew it, a system message appeared in front of me saying that I had cleared a special task.

“The Hermian clan worships you intensely.”

“Congratulations, you have completed the special task ‘Savior of the Clan’.”

“Soon you will learn about the apostle who serves the god of despair, fall and madness.”

「Additional settlement will be made for all types of breakthrough rewards in the 21st floor individual trials.」

“It’s worthwhile to spend a lot of holy power.”

After reading all the system messages, I smiled.

Even if he didn’t acquire the information right away, he was soon able to obtain information about the apostle serving the ancient deity.

Now, the important thing in the trial process is the situation in which everything is gathered.

In addition, I was able to get the advantage of additional settlement for all the rewards obtained by clearing the 21st floor individual trials.

Even that is not the only benefit.

‘With Shinhwa <The Last Savior>, I was able to greatly enhance my divine power, and as an achievement reward, the creation of the sacred realm also increased from C+ grade to B+ grade.’

He struggled in his own way and earned a decent income.

‘And above all, I was able to create my own realm for the first time… … .’

divine realm.

After creating the realm often used by deities, I felt new.

It was worth it.

Until now, I had always invaded other people’s territory, let alone created it.

‘I personally dealt with the divine realm, but the feeling is different from seeing it.’

It was fun.

Depending on the type of divinity, different area effects could be added, and the power of other divinities dwelling in the earth could also be driven away.

There are probably few powers that are as good as this for the defense battle.

However, the downside is also a definite strength.

‘… … However, there is a high probability that the sacred realm I use will be easily destroyed.’

Should I say the difference in proficiency in the divine realm?

Perhaps, if the sacred realm is scratched, it will break immediately.

To that extent, my divinity realm was fragile.

Even I couldn’t attach the desired effect to my holy realm like other holy realms.

It’s just that you can paste each unique effect according to the type of divinity.

‘Certainly, it’s not an authority that can be used in battle right now. And the consumption of divine power was greater than expected.’

Perhaps it would be ambiguous to use it in a battle against a strong enemy.

‘At most, it’ll be enough to offset the effects of other divine realms in actual combat.’

Later on, I’ll have to acquire skills or authority related to the realm.

If you go to the waiting room on the 22nd floor, it would be okay to synthesize area-type skills separately.

As I was thinking that, I suddenly felt a presence at the entrance of the tent.

It’s not different… … .

“God, My name is Lucia Mimir. I’m sorry, but I have something to tell you. Can I see the god?”

It is a visit from the black-haired priestess who leads the Hermian clan.

I was going to ask about the Apostle of the Ancient Godhead sooner or later… … .

I never thought I would visit you first like this.

I was satisfied with that and immediately allowed her to come in.

“Please.”

And soon, Lucia wearing a black eye patch appeared at the entrance of the tent.

“… … I am sorry for disturbing the rest of God. I stopped by because I have something to tell you.”

She immediately bowed her head in adoration and sat down rather modestly.

To be honest, I just want to tell you to be comfortable… … .

Maybe that’s why I’m going to have to go through some annoying haggling.

So I brushed off her attitude and continued.

“no. Even so, I had something to say. I can say that I heard it just in time.”

“I’m not going to talk… … ?”

“Ancient deity. And I would like to know about the apostles serving the ancient gods. It is the cause of contamination of this land.”

“… … .”

Upon hearing those words, Lucia flinched as if she was slightly surprised, then nodded in response.

“okay. Goddess also thinks the same… … , If that’s the case, I think the story to be told to the god will fit in.”

“… … .”

“Because what I have to say to the Holy Spirit is also about the ancient deities and the apostles who serve them. Before that, I apologize in advance for my negligence.”

“It’s inconsiderate… … ?”

When he questioned him, Lucia immediately lowered her head as if she had no face and opened her mouth.

“It is indeed an unfortunate story… … .”

and.

“An apostle serving an ancient deity who scatters tainted power.”

next moment.

“He is a necromancer who was once called an unparalleled genius in the Hermian clan.”

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

***

An apostle serving the god of despair, fall, and madness.

The moment he heard that he was actually a genius necromancer from the Hermian clan.

He seemed to know why the tower had saved the Hermian clan with something like a special task.

‘… … In terms of game, this was like a chain quest.’

Perhaps the tower gave a special task to inform the information about it implicitly?

But that speculation was short-lived.

Lucia said that the apostle serving the ancient deity was actually a necromancer from a clan… … .

Then, I wondered why the clan’s necromancer had come to serve an ancient deity.

After thinking about it for a while, I came up with a simple answer.

“An apostle of the ancient deity. Is he like a traitor to the clan?”

“… … That’s right. My family once received a prophecy from the priestess of the previous generation. Perhaps the world is preparing for the end.”

“… … .”

“And at that time, the spirit of death will appear and save the world from the end, the predecessors said.”

“Is that so.”

Only then did I understand the situation at least roughly.

‘So at that time, as soon as he saw me, he said it was a divine spirit.’

prophecy.

I don’t know how I read the future, but a prophecy was coming down to the Hermian clan.

It wasn’t surprising.

Because even the believer of proof could show the future by reading the law of causality.

Perhaps it wasn’t a foresight equal to that of a godhead, but he was able to tell the future albeit clumsily.

‘It’s fun.’

Are there still so many interesting forces in the world?

My eyes twinkled at the fact that he had the power to read the future even though he was not a god.

Perhaps, while climbing the tower, I might gain a skill or power to see the future.

But it was not the right time to pay attention.

Then, I barely regained my expressionless expression and immediately asked a question.

“Then do you know where the traitor is?”

“… … yes. He is currently at the edge of the Tainted Lands. In a place that was once used as an altar by our clan.”

“Do you know the purpose of going there?”

“… … no. But I am guessing. Perhaps the traitor intends to fulfill the clan’s wishes. He was usually interested in the wishes of his clan.”

“It’s a wish.”

“It’s simple. There are what might be called the remains of spirit-like beings. Only, they are indigenous spirits.”

“Indigenous spirits… … .”

As I tried to think about what the native deity might be, the bloody demon sword rang out.

-joy. Some native deity or something similar to you. Even this black-haired priestess doesn’t know the details of the divine power.

Dam Chun-wu, who had been quietly listening to the story until now, explained as if adding further details.

―Indigenous deities are pseudo deities subordinate to a certain region. If you look at it closely, you can say it’s like a manager. They are all false deities.

He said that the native deity is a false deity subordinated to a certain area, like a manager subordinated to a tower.

Then, a native deity was nothing more than a quasi-god with divinity.

It means that even if it is not a true godhead, it can be compared to a clumsy godhead.

It was only then that he was able to find out what the necromancer, the apostle of the ancient godhead, was aiming for.

“So what?”

At that, I frowned and looked at Lucia, and soon she bit her lip and nodded.

“… … It is probably as the god thinks.”

The desire of the Hermian clan, which handles corpses, was obvious.

You put a clan altar where the remains of a native deity are?

This means that the Hermian clan was interested in reviving the native spirits.

In addition, he said that the necromancer, an apostle serving an ancient deity, was originally interested in wishes.

Combining puzzle-like hints can lead to such an answer.

“Karnar Sagsis. He seeks to resurrect native spirits from the age of mythology into the undead. By borrowing the power of an ancient deity that I don’t even know what it is.”

In this personal trial on the 21st floor, I have to deal with a number of fake deities.

***

Karnar Sagsis.

After hearing about an apostle of an ancient deity trying to revive a native deity.

I immediately left the place where the Hermians were and headed to the place where the remains of the native spirits were found.

Of course, every time I got closer to the place where Karnar Sagsis was, the demonic energy got thicker and the divinity got louder.

It didn’t bother me too much.

‘I can just ignore this level of contamination.’

Magic that floats in the air can be turned into magic, and divinity can also be removed with my divine power.

So there was no way to stop the movement.

I continued to move, maximizing my mobility by utilizing the steel wings and even the wind spirit’s boots.

But even so, the nervousness doesn’t go away.

‘I have to go faster than now. This is not the time to waste time.’

If what Lucia said was correct, I could say that I am currently in a crisis more than I thought.

It was worth it.

Even if it’s a fake god, strictly speaking, it’s a being with divinity.

But to have to deal with many of them… … .

Despair, falling, and the apostle who serves the god of madness are difficult to resist, but the difficulty level has increased several times.

―It’s really crazy.

Dam Chun-wu also expressed his dissatisfaction while walking on the road.

―Even if the ancient deity doesn’t use his hands directly, it’s not enough to deal with the official apostles and revive the native spirits… … .

It seemed to bother him quite a bit that he had to deal with the native spirits.

And it was no different for me.

My throat was dry at the thought that I was on my way to death in the blink of an eye.

But still, I didn’t stop moving forward.

‘… … It’s a battle you’ll have to face at some point anyway.’

Even if it wasn’t so, lately I didn’t feel like I was risking my life.

It was said that there was something that could be called a wall when it comes to becoming stronger.

Originally, as a challenger to climb the tower, Hana breaks down the wall of growth.

It is to clear the ordeal by risking one’s own life.

“… … .”

So even though I felt nervous, I didn’t feel rejected.

Breaking the dead line with all your might is something you have to do at some point.

And that was when I made up my mind and moved for a few minutes.

Before I knew it, I was able to find a black sphere made of clay-like divinity, and I knew that this was the place where Karnar Sagsis was.

“Are they hiding in the sacred realm?”

Perhaps Karnar Sagsis is there.

And there are also the remains of native spirits that may have survived.

But even so, it doesn’t change that you have to go in.

After thinking that, I immediately concentrated my thoughts on the sword and raised the sword.

「Authority ‘Sword Spirit Strength 劍气成罡’ is strongly activated.」

Soon after, the twin swords were filled with energy like starlight.

「The skill ‘Pacheon 破天’ is activated.」

「The limit on what can be broken disappears.」

Immediately after activating the Pacheon skill, he fell as it was into a holy sphere like mud and swung his sword down.

Clink-!

「Breaking Heaven Sword destroys things that are difficult to break, and the rank increases to S-class (28,211/50,000).」

And at the same time, the outer surface of the clay-like sphere of divinity shattered and the passage opened.

oh oh oh… … !

The moment I quickly passed through the passage through which the eerie energy flowed out.

“You have entered the divine realm <obsession in despair>.”

Before I knew it, I had reached a place that looked like a black graveyard.

It is a graveyard with numerous tombstones and a muddy divinity.

It’s also very big.

even… … .

[ Welcome. ]

In the center of the Black Graveyard, there was a black-haired man wearing many bone accessories.

[ The Hound from the Tower. ]

There is nothing to look at too long.

The dark-haired man wearing the bone ornaments felt a great divinity.

Divinity that could possibly be on the same level as Godhead.

To put it simply, it was like this.

[ I am… … , an apostle serving the god of despair, fall, and madness. Karnar Sagsis. ]

An apostle serving an ancient deity.

[This is the name of the person who will kill you from now on. ]

As you might have guessed, this dark-haired man really had the power of a god.

“As a user, I encountered a strong opponent that I could not defeat.”

「The skill ‘Indomitable Will’ is activated.」

and… … .

「The special spell activation conditions have been met.」

「The exclusive spell <Despise the Strong> is activated.」

「All stats and skill efficiency increase by 100% until the end of the battle.」

Recently, I realized when I saw that buffs dedicated to strong enemies that I had never seen before were activated one after another.

“… … .”

That now I really have to risk my life.
