Chapter 150: Guardian Deity (4) (1/2)
Chapter 150: Guardian Deity (4)
Exactly 10 days.
Most of the creatures in South Korea were wiped out. The number of humans following me grew exponentially and reached 30,000.
And...I receive an achievement at the same time.
-The ‘faith’ of 30,000 humans has successfully been acquired for the first time.
The achievement is beyond what can be read. Looking for similar achievements and rewards.
0.001 achievement points will be obtained per person. The decimal points will be rounded up.
35 achievement points have been added.
There was something like this? The reward itself wasn’t that great but the system window meant it was worth keeping an eye on.
If millions of people had faith in me then it would be possible to earn high achievement points. It didn’t seem impossible when looking at the growing trend.
Of course, it would be faster to do other work but it could be considered a supplementary income.
There was nothing bad about it. Especially when it came to my achievements score.
”Stop!”
It happened when we were nearing Busan. Many soldiers and armoured vehicles blocked the path in front of me. There were no helicopters or fighter jets visible. I heard that the demons had hit the air force bases first...it was surprising that the ground troops still existed.
I hadn’t read any news about them but now their motives were clear. They intended to get rid of the creatures.
The man talking into the loudspeaker was wearing a hat with three stars.
“We are planning to recapture Seoul! Cooperate!”
He added a few words but nothing was clear. They meant to force ‘cooperation.’
”If you try to leave...!”
”Vicious scum! You pop out when the creatures disappear? What have you been doing up to this point?”
”Saviour-nim is the one who removed all the creatures!”
The reactions of those who followed me were quite intense. It seemed like during the full scale attack, they abandoned the people and retreated to a far corner.
The people had lost serious faith in the soldiers. The blood pressure of the survivors rose.
”The soldiers stand for South Korea! There were limited resources and no supplies, so the only way was to be self-sufficient. But now it is different. Once Seoul is reoccupied, you can live a comfortable life as before! The technology developed using the cores has been put into practical use! Awakened, cooperate with us! Let’s recapture Seoul together!”
It was no different from an armed demonstration. The soldiers were trying to use the weapons to force the people. However, my side included a much larger number of Awakened.
They even had ‘faith’ in me.
“Che!”
”Bullshit!”
The people spat and expressed their disbelief.
“Master. It is noisy. What is that thing?”
Rose frowned due to her sensitive ears.
“It is called a loudspeaker.”
”Can I get rid of it?”
Cheok.
Instead of answering, I took one step forward.
At that moment, all the noise disappeared. The people complaining and the soldiers became silent.
But the atmosphere was just like before an explosion.
Hwaaaaack!
I made a huge sphere with Pride’s flames. The round sphere of flames floated into the sky like a sun. The flames that were twice as large as an armoured vehicle constantly expanded and compressed.
I had 110 points in magic power. It was the highest of all my stats so even a low rated skill could offer more destructive power.
There was nothing to say if an epic grade skill was used.
Kuaaaang!
I stretched out my hand and the compressed sphere hit a mountain.
A short explosion.
The mountain that was 700 metres tall unexpectedly evaporated.
An action that was impossible for current humans. It was something that couldn’t even be called ‘power.’
“......”
The soldier shouting through the loudspeaker was silent after seeing the scene. He wasn’t the only one from among those watching.
There was nothing to say.
It was like a wonderful dream had just soared into the sky. They stared blankly.
This was a warning. If they made more noise then I would bury them.
“God.”
“A god...”
Beyond a saviour, I now had the title of a god. The murmurs weren’t only heard from the people behind me.
The soldiers. They were humans as well. I had learned about humans through the machine.
Every human was different but they still followed the same laws. I had already received their faith and the number of followers exceeded tens of thousands. My abilities were impossible to reproduce.
Duk!
Duk!
The soldiers started to drop their guns. Then like wildfire, all of them started putting down their arms. Those in the armoured vehicles came out with hands lifted. They had no intention of hostile behaviour.
“You! What are you doing?”
“D-didn’t you see it? Humans can’t disobey a god.”
The soldiers were intensely agitated.
Kueeeh!
Just then, a scream was heard from near the mountain I blew up.
Kung! Kung!
A giant carrying a huge rod came rushing over. One of its two heads had disappeared but its presence was overwhelming.
A twin head ogre! One of the strongest creatures.
It had been attacked and wounded near the mountain. It breathed harshly as it ran uncontrollably.
At the very least, it was a species that common humans couldn’t deal with. The twin head ogre had appeared after its habitat was destroyed. People instinctively felt fear because of its size and ugliness.
Saaah!
Thousand Wings expanded. Just like the name, the wings could fly in the air. I flew horizontally along the ground and bumped into the twin head ogre.
Kururung!
The twin head ogre had dull movements but great power. It probably had at least 100 points in strength.
But...that was the same for me.
105. It was higher than the twin head ogre.
I grabbed the hands holding the rod and pushed them away.
I felt the twin head ogre hesitate. It never imagined it would be pushed in a pure power struggle. Creatures and demons made a point of avoiding a strength contest with a twin head ogre.
But I engaged in a frontal attack. I didn’t let go of the rod.
Kung!
Soon the body of the twin head ogre was laying down on the ground. It tried to get up but it was off balance due to losing one head.
I pulled out the Emperor's Sword. And my sword cut through its neck.
Phuak!
Blood spurted but I didn’t care. The twin head ogre stopped breathing.
“God...”
”A guardian deity!”
Similar words emerged from their mouths.
Guardian deity? That name didn’t really suit me.
I shook the blood off my sword and turned away.
Then I walked towards the soldiers.
Gulp!
All of the soldiers were tense. I moved slowly and didn’t stop as I got closer.
Words weren’t necessary. The soldier in the very front stepped aside. The other soldiers saw it and quickly moved their legs.
The dense group of soldiers parted and formed a road. As I walked through the centre, people started to follow.
I gathered all the required magic power for the wings. The creatures had dried up and the number of people increased to 40,000.
‘It is time.’
Now it was time to open the summoning door.
In my previous life, the three legged crow had emerged. I knew the place where he was summoned. If I went to the same place and used Thousand Summoned Doors, it was highly likely that I would see the three legged crow.
The result of Thousand Summoned Doors depended on the specific time, place or object. At the very least, I needed to adjust the location.
I crossed the border to North Korea.
