Even among the challengers who had risen to the upper tier of the Tower of Trials, the ‘Pioneer’ that it gave to the rankers, and the resulting ‘Pioneer Law’, were of great value.
‘Even the beings called the three ancient gods did not have powers outside of standards such as the Precursor’s Law of Foreshadowing.’
In fact, the Law of Presence gained by becoming a Precursor is a power that allows mortals to stand against even the three ancient deities.
‘If not only I, but also the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman have it, it will be of great help in the future depending on how they use it.’
If the Tower of Trials hadn’t retrieved the Supervisor’s ability called the Law of Perception that the Administrator had acquired during his lifetime, those two could have become great allies as well.
“The Precursor, and the Precursor Law. I heard that the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Swordsman still have it. “Then, shouldn’t we listen to that first?”
According to what Dam Cheon-yu said earlier, didn’t he say that the Forerunner given by the Tower of Trials, and the power of the Foreshadowing Law gained through it, are still in the hands of the administrator?
‘Damcheonwoo is also a challenger who climbed to the 41st floor of the Tower of Trials, and he knows a lot about many things, so he couldn’t have given me wrong information.’
It was true.
“The Iron Blood Lord ‘Canary Rugfeld’ frowns, feeling a little embarrassed by your words.”
[ … … Where did you hear that the Tower of Trials didn’t retrieve the Precursor’s Precursor Law from the administrator? At this point, it’s information that won’t be known to you, right? ]
“Baek Seol-hwa, the white crane swordsman, is looking at you and tilting her head as if questioning.”
[ … … uh? Iknow, right. The information that some managers have the law of vision acquired as a visionary has not yet been revealed to Seongyoon, right? How did you know? ]
“Well, I also have a helper who tells me about rare information. Besides that, I also know that neither of them have any major restrictions on disclosing information.”
It was a lie.
There was nothing like that, it was just a story I found out from Dam Cheon-woo, who resides in the Blood Heavenly Demon Sword.
Well, getting in-depth information about the Tower of Trials itself requires a lot of time and effort.
If you go to the official climbing dimension where the Tower of Trials is located and poke around, you might be able to find out more… … .
I have absolutely no intention of wasting time on something like that.
‘Damcheonwoo also knows quite a bit of advanced information about the Tower of Trials, and unlike ordinary challengers, I have no problem clearing the trials even if I don’t know such things.’
It was natural.
That’s right, it’s advanced information that only a small percentage of challengers who have risen to the upper ranks know how the Tower of Trials will change in the future.
Whether this was going around the official climbing level registered at the Tower of Trials, looking for high-ranking challengers, or looking for powerful people who had shared advanced information with them, it didn’t seem to be very efficient.
In that case, it would be better to ask Dam Cheon-woo for important information once in a while before moving on.
‘There’s no need to waste time.’
like now.
“ah. And what kind of seer and seer laws were provided to the Lord of Iron Blood and the White Crane Sword as options in the past. “I think it would be good if you could tell me as much as you remember.”
The Iron Blood Lord and the White Crane Swordsman also seemed to have decided to get to the point rather than continuing to wonder how I found out information that had not yet been made public.
“The Lord of Iron Blood, Canary Rugfeld, nods and answers as if he knew this would happen.”
[ okay. Well, since you are also a seer and obtained the law of seer, you kind of expected this to happen… … . That’s not unexpected. Let me tell you. ]
She came forward and spoke as if she wanted to start with the Iron Blood Lord.
“The Lord of Iron Blood, Canary Rugfeld, speaks as he looks back on old memories.”
[ When I was alive, when I was still a challenger, I was selected as a pioneer by the Tower of Trials and was given three options. ]
The Lord of Iron Blood calmly explained, recalling the three laws of vision presented to him by the Tower of Trials as a pioneer.
[‘Judge’. It was a way to learn the law of perceiving <judgment>. By quantifying the good deeds and bad deeds of others, it was possible to randomly impose a penalty of confiscating one concept of divinity or magical power from a being whose evil deeds were higher than their good deeds… … . In many ways, it was ambiguous. ]
[ ‘traveler’. It was an option to learn the law of precognition <Travel>… … . It was a useless mobility ability that allowed one to travel anywhere in the universe at will. However, you cannot go to a place you have never been to before. Well, I don’t need to say more than this, right? It’s trash, it wasn’t picked. ]
[ ‘conductor’. I was able to learn the Law of Perception <Command>, and when using it, it was possible to temporarily increase all abilities by 100% and grant absolute mental power to multiple allies… … . Isn’t that a power that can only show its true value when the number of allies is large? I didn’t think it was efficient. ]
If we had to be honest, should we say that it is a case of unlucky weather like Damcheonwoo?
‘Judge’, the law of precedent <judgment> can apply a strong penalty when the latter value of ‘good deed value’ and ‘bad deed value’ is higher, but on the contrary, it can apply a strong penalty if the ‘good deed value’ is higher than ‘bad deed value’. Can not use it.
‘Traveler’, the law of perseverance <Travel>, as the Lord of Iron Blood said, is nothing more than a movement ability, so it is a failure for those who desperately want combat abilities.
‘Commander’, the law of foreknowledge <Command>, unlike ‘Judge’, has no conditions for use, and unlike ‘Traveler’, it is better because it specializes in the battle itself, but it cannot be evaluated as a good ability.
“The Lord of Iron Blood, Canary Rugfeld, continues speaking with a wry smile.”
[All three are powers that do not suit me. In the end, we had no choice but to reset all of the pioneer’s options and choose a new option. Well, the good news among the misfortunes is that I ended up gaining very good abilities. ]
Perhaps because of this, the Lord of Iron Blood also reset and refreshed all three pioneer options like Dam Cheon-woo before making a decision.
[‘Conqueror’. I was able to learn the law of perseverance, <Conquest>, and unlike the two laws of perseverance mentioned earlier, it was infinitely better. Even challengers selected by the Tower of Trials as pioneers rarely have better abilities than this. ]
step… … .
[ When activating the Law of Perception <Conquer>, a special barrier is constructed using divine power, and the consumption of sacred power and magical power of allies within the range is reduced by 30%, and for enemies, the reserves of sacred power and magical power are naturally reduced. It inflicts an overwhelming penalty that cannot be recovered. ]
The foreshadowing law <Conquest> of the Iron Blood Lord’s pioneer ‘Conqueror’ could not even be compared at all with the foreshadowing law <Resurrection> of Dam Cheonwoo’s pioneer ‘Resurrectionist’.
[ ah. For reference, the maximum range of the special barrier made up of divine power created by activating the law of perseverance <Conquer> is the entire planet. also. The special barrier of <Conquest>, as well as the structures within its range, are set as ‘absolutely indestructible’ items. ]
The difference in the performance of the laws of foreshadowing was so severe that the seer <Conqueror> possessed by the Lord of Iron Blood could not be compared in any way with the seer <Resurrected> possessed by Dam Cheon-woo.
“The Lord of Iron Blood, Canary Rugfeld, is looking at you and smiling confidently.”
[ ruler. What is it like? From your perspective, the pioneer ‘conqueror’ seems like a fairly useful power. ]
“… … .”
no.
The pioneer ‘conqueror’, and the pioneer law <Conquer>, are not at a level that seems useful.
The ‘absolutely indestructible’ rule that the manager of the Tower of Trials, the ‘Hero of the Ruined World’, placed on the Blood Heavenly Demon Sword has never been broken.
If you think about it, if you spread the special barrier created by the law of enlightenment <Conquest> across an entire planet, it could become an unbreakable battlefield even if three ancient gods come and fight.
‘… … Transforming a planet itself into an indestructible fortress is amazing, but the additional effects it has on both allies and enemies are also incredible.’
It’s not even just that.
Not only is it not enough for allies to receive a 30% reduction in the cost of sacred power and magic power, but it also makes it impossible for enemies to naturally recover their holy power and magic power.
That means that unless the Ancient Godhead also has a means of countering the power of the Forerunner and the Law of Foreshadowing, he will not be able to fight on his home ground for very long.
“Excellent. “Conqueror’s pioneer law, <Conquest>, is even more so when you consider that it seems to be effective even against multiple ancient deities.”
Is that why?
Sze-.
I was looking forward to it.
White Crane Swordsman, who was chosen as a seer by the Tower of Trials like the Lord of Iron Blood, what kind of seer and the laws of seeing do he have?
Moreover, since it could not have been of a lower level than that of the Iron Blood Lord’s pioneer ‘Conqueror’ and the pioneer law <Conquest>, expectations for the White Crane Swordsman were bound to inflate even more.

“Well, now that we know about the Lord of Iron Blood’s vision and the laws of vision, it is now White Crane Swordsman’s turn to tell us.”
however… … .
“Baek Seol-hwa, the white crane swordsman, turns his head slightly, feeling burdened by your expectant gaze.”
[ … … eww. Seo, I’m sorry to Seongyoon, but unlike that woman, I won’t be of much help to Seongyoon. Well, please don’t expect that much. ]
Contrary to what people think, Baekhakgeomseon opened his mouth with a bit of despondency, as if the laws of enlightenment he had acquired as a pioneer were not so good.
[‘Trainee’. By learning the Law of Perception <Training>, I was able to permanently increase all my abilities simply by repeating the task. Without limits. However, it wasn’t particularly attractive, so I didn’t choose it. ]
“Is that so.”
[‘Predator’. After learning the law of perseverance <Predation>, when you specify an opponent and use it, you can steal 40% of the opponent’s total divinity and internal power for 10 minutes and increase the amount of damage the opponent receives by 100%. In the end, it wasn’t ultimately chosen. ]
“What’s next?”
[ that… … . ]
But… … .
“Baek Seol-hwa, the white crane swordsman, slumps her shoulders and continues speaking without confidence.”
[ ha. Next are the pioneers and the laws of vision that I ultimately chose. As I said at the beginning, it won’t be of much help to Seongyoon, so don’t be disappointed… … . ]
No, it wasn’t.
[‘Adapter’. I was able to learn the law of foresight <adaptation>, and the power of the law of foresight itself is simple. From the moment you activate <Adaptation>, you can adapt to the damage received and gain resistance, immunity, or response ability. ]
Rather, the seer and the seer law of Baekhakgeomseon had an absurd power that went beyond common sense.
[ ‘Adapter’, and the law of foresight <Adapt> takes time to understand the attack inflicted on me while it is activated, and then acquires resistance to the same attack, reducing the amount of damage, or preventing it from taking any damage at all from the same attack. You become immune. ]
It was certain.
[ uh… … . and. Even if I gain resistance or become immune, if it is impossible to respond to the same attack, I can temporarily acquire the appropriate response ability. Well, it’s not permanent. ]
and.
“Baek Seol-hwa, the white crane swordsman, glances at you and smiles awkwardly.”
[Would you be disappointed because it is a useless power that is not of much help to Seongyoon? ]
“… … .”
Just like that, I stared at the White Crane Sword in a daze for a few seconds, and suddenly laughed out of bewilderment.
‘This is a useless power that doesn’t really help me… … ?’
Realized.
‘Are you bragging to me in an ironic way?’
Perhaps, unlike the Iron Blood Lord, the White Crane Swordsman could be the best ally, capable of fighting even the ancient god itself in some cases.
