8th floor – Lv. 55 Disciples (2)
The battle is over, but the war is not over.
The participation of the god of nature means the participation of all fairies in the war.
It is different from dwarfs who worship different gods for each sub-race within the group, or humans whose religious freedom is guaranteed.
Freedom of religion was a natural right only on Earth, but freedom of religion on the continent of the labyrinth was not so much an advantage.
The fact that there are no other tribal gods in the world where gods exist is only a loss in terms of the whole species.
Even if they work together, they quarrel with each other for all sorts of reasons, including beliefs, about topics that might be pushed out by other races.
There is a reason that all exiles are human.
Because humans are the worst.
Even as a faction, not a race.
The game tastes best when you start with the worst.
But once it becomes a reality, it just makes you feel better.
When you can, let’s investigate [The Betrayed Saint].
This is the first time in this episode that we have encountered humans on a scale that can be called a faction.
Until now, they were all humanoids, not human.
“Are you talking about the great saint of discipline, Mai Lilith-sama?”
“You’re missing. Have you heard anything?”
The defenders and knights were friendly to me. It’s only natural that he showed an activity enough to blow away the prejudice against exiles.
Besides, the fairies who joined the castle are also friendly to me.
No, it’s almost like a benefactor.
So, people had no choice but to reconsider their attitude toward me.
naturally become polite
convenient. The reputation and position were more than what they wanted.
The soldier who was called a disciple of discipline thought a little before answering.
“There have been many rumors of various atrocities. There are also rumors that he was assassinated…”
“God?”
The god of discipline is usually a reticent god who doesn’t send out messages well.
If the suffix is money, add it.
The criterion for judging the value of everything is money. They don’t even pay attention to things that don’t cost a penny, and they even hate them.
So the soldier suddenly shut his mouth.
It’s not that I don’t want to say it, it’s that I shouldn’t say it.
I nudged a gold coin.
It doesn’t matter if you give it openly, but as it is a land where religious freedom exists, it may seem strange to other believers.
Wouldn’t it look like the defenders were getting their money back?
The truth is, I just follow the doctrine.
Since he is a god of discipline, his doctrine is very strict.
The soldier continued to speak with peace of mind.
“He was very angry. He gave a prophecy to all his followers. The whole denomination searched for almost half a year in return for the money that God gave. In the end, there was no result.”
As I know the details of the story, there are parts that sound a little different.
He must have thought of getting the saint back a little bit slower.
I had no idea that things would go so quickly.
Whatever the people think, the gods are actually exiles.
Unlike the villagers, they do not belong to the server.
When a new round of exiles begins, a new tutorial server, a new continent is born.
Of course, God existed before that.
The moment the server is created, God gets a memory of his actions and has new followers.
The history made at the moment of the birth of a new server is usually written according to the flow of the throne and according to the tendency of the god himself.
God, the exile, takes a step back and looks down on those who are inferior to him.
It seems like a simulation game as the villagers recognize that they are NPCs more easily than anyone else.
In any case, if [The Betrayed Saint] appears, she will appear as a saint in the strongest of the human denominations.
If so, it means that the god of discipline is currently the strongest in the human faction.
“Did you say it was a year ago?”
“Yes, it is.”
It seems that the level of an Orc Shaman is not high, but it is a fairly recent occurrence within a year.
In some cases, it has been more than 10 years. Then, after adjusting to life as an Orc, it becomes a headache.
It’s been a year or so, when you still think of yourself as a human being. It was very fortunate.
“Is God silent now?”
“Yes, yes. As usual.”
“Okay. That was helpful.”
He handed me one more gold coin.
It will be of great help to your life, but you will also get great benefits as a religion.
If you are a god of discipline and money, if you generate profits in any way, your faith will build up.
All lineages are like that. By following the doctrines ordained by the Godhead, they are entitled to exercise power through divine power.
The more faithful you are, the stronger your power, and miracles can be manifested from the perspective of the residents.
In this way, the faith in the world where God exists has no choice but to be much stronger than that of the Earth.
I think like that every time.
How comfortable would it be if we could unite all of the beliefs of humans who were divided by the initial setting?
It will turn into a bizarre idea of conformity Machiavellianism, but there are already good examples of greenskins and fairies.
The god of war under the rule of the iron fist, the mother of all fairies, the god of nature.
In a world like this, a theocratic dictatorship is not necessarily bad.
If it were a god in the first place, wouldn’t it be the ‘iron man’ of the monarch theory?
Well, even so, it doesn’t really mean that God can decide everything in a faction.
It is a story that the power of a faction is solidified simply by the existence of the central axis of faith.
Of course, such a thing is unlikely to happen.
After all, there is one more reason why humans are weak.
Daeseongnyeo is no longer part of the human faction.
All [Hero Units] of human factions are originally like this.
Whether it’s being beaten and kicked out, having to take care of him so that he doesn’t go anywhere, or being a sociopath whose only goal is to live well on his own.
It’s crazy and running around.
Nevertheless, in most continents, it somehow maintains its legacy, so it is hard to say whether it is human power.
That’s why, even after the fairy joined, the objective difference in power with the orc empire is about to get dark.
It is a war that cannot be won without the intervention of an exile, as even against a single brigade, the best of the fairies have no chance of winning.
Still, it can be a good thing in a way.
It was time for the seniors who knew something and got ahead of them to reach the kingdom.
Is there a possibility of an influx of old people from the kingdom?
asked the fairy wizard.
“How many floors did you go to?”
“I went all the way to the 15th floor. Time ran out there. So when we met here again, I was sure you were cheating.”
“The 22nd floor isn’t even there, but you said it was there.”
“Yeah. But, you seem to be having a very rough time. Before the 10th floor, right?”
“It’s on the 8th floor.”
The fairy wizard nodded as if he knew it.
What this old wizard is suggesting is not very good.
“Then maybe the 16th floor of this server is the kingdom?”
The fairy wizard nodded again.
Okay, it feels so cheap.
The shorter the section before the kingdom, the dirtier it is.
“What’s the third theme?”
“What do you think it will be?”
As long as you can be sure it was before the 10th floor, it’s definitely not a theme you can come to here.
There are few such themes.
For example, if the theme itself is completely out of time.
“It’s a universe.”
“Still, in my case, it wasn’t too difficult to pass.”
The fairy wizard smiles emptyly.
It is said that he has never met a proper armed force.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Just passing through dangerous wildlife very quickly.“This is an extremely short tutorial. Very few passers-by.”
“Because the universe is hard to sit on. I’ve never seen any other exiles on odd floors.”
Rainwater will also be filtered from the second theme snowfield. If the next one is space, most of them have moved on to the next round.
In the universe, information is the most important theme.
It’s harsh unless you’re a senior.
If there are extremely few people distributed within the same theme, PVP will not occur.
It seems that very few survived the cosmic theme, as the fairy mage made it through the odd floors without any problems.
“I just swipe through, so I don’t know about factions. I don’t even know what happened to Greenskins.”
“The universe has a lot of layers like that.”
Since the environment is too extreme, the difficulty itself comes out relatively easily.
An experienced and seasoned exile may simply find it easier to get through.
If there is no direct battle, knowing the type of threat can be avoided.
But can our party do the same?
I don’t want to see the cosmic greenskin.
As technology advances, their powerful physical abilities tend to fade.
However, its wariness alone is a threat in any era.
As time goes by, the defense tends not to keep up with the attack power.
Warriors who do not know fear in a one-on-one situation are the object of fear.
“Hmm, this is so. The future… ah, you’re really going to die.”
Let’s think about it a bit. You really have to think about it a lot.
The Temple of Time can only be used once per person and only appears at the end of the tutorial.
The effect is to go back to the even-numbered layers of the past.
How did I distribute the party members? I am certain I killed Kakrish.
The fairies on the second floor said they saw me.
Let me exclude myself. Because of the rules set by the god of time, my direct meeting with the future me will not happen.
Then where did the girl go?
hunter? the youngest?
Which floor were you sent to?
It should be considered.
I believe myself. It must have been sent to the place where it was needed when it was needed.
In fact, when you reach the Temple of Time, you already know the answer, so it has no choice but to do so.
In fact, the Temple of Time in the game days worked very simply.
If I went back to the second floor, I would just go back to the second floor at the moment I left.
I couldn’t do anything like sending a colleague, and my character just left for the past alone.
You just have to finish the unfinished work there and return to the original time.
It is a simple gimmick that is not difficult or complicated.
After it became a reality, it got a little more complicated.
By praying to the temple, you can decide when and where to go on that floor.
First of all, according to the rules set by the God of Time, you must not meet the same person in different time zones.
Time travel ends immediately.
It was a rule explained by the restrictions imposed by the god of time.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m worried about the time paradox or simply because the god of time likes it.
Or it could be because it was too convenient to be able to meet face-to-face and chat.
It’s not like I’ve ever done time travel on Earth anyway.
If you call it the law of the labyrinth, you have no choice but to say so.
First of all, this place is on the 8th floor.
There must be someone here who is a future party member already or will come.
It can’t be.
The wide map has been opened and [race mainstream] is intertwined, so there’s a possibility that I didn’t send anyone to this floor.
Who is it? The girl is the most powerful though.
To summarize, the only thing confirmed as of now is what floor I went to.
After tidying up, I thought about it a little more and decided to stop thinking.
There is too little information. The future me has significantly limited information about the past me.
The temple of time is not necessarily all-round, so there is nothing we can do about it.
Okay, just believe in yourself. No matter who you send, it will surely show up at the most perfect moment.
I was the one who designed it, right?
said the fairy wizard.
“Did you think about it?”
“Um? Are you still there?”
“I can’t help it. I have to prepare for the next battle.”
The fairy wizard points in the direction of the Stormcry Brigade’s garrison.
I shook my head.
The bombardment was enough to buy time. Although it is said to be weak for a spirit king, it is an existence that is treated as a strategic weapon even in the distant future.
“We have destroyed the garrison itself. [clairvoyant] Isn’t it? There won’t be enough energy to attack today, either.”
“Banpa? As that Spirit King? Wasn’t he summoned for a short time?”
“I beat the rice cake in five seconds.”
“Hmm. I’ve never played an elemental so I don’t know.”
“Are you sticking to only one-sided orthodox wizards?”
“Because I like magic. It was pretty plausible if I stroked a robe, a cone hat, and a beard.”
I was fed up.
“The fairy wouldn’t have a beard.”
“There is nothing more important than youth. You will know when you are old.”
“I wish I could.”
“Let’s think positively. Don’t you rejuvenate every time you die?”
“The idea of accepting it that way is amazing.”
The fairy wizard chuckles and smiles like an old man.
It’s still behavior that doesn’t match the face.
* * *
Among the defenders, of course, there are wizards. Because it is relatively rare and important, it is autonomous enough that even commanders rarely touch it.
Their joint observations confirmed that my attack had reached the garrison and inflicted tactically close to devastating damage.
However, the opponent is Greenskin.
There is no such thing as a drop in morale.
The god of war must also be very angry, so an additional attack cannot be ruled out.
“The surviving forces of the Stormcry Brigade are mostly trolls and orcs.”
“The ogres must have been mediocre in size and strength.”
The Fairy Priests also report what they observed.
The priest of the leaf fairy, who seems to be the representative, spread the size of the troops passing through the forest.
“A large group of troll and ogre infantry are marching. From the direction it appears they are trying to join the devastated Brigade of Stormcry.”
The defense commanders’ expressions became serious.
“Are there no orcs or goblins?”
“I can’t even see the shaman.”
The sighs of the soldiers, who seemed to know something, flowed out.
“Did you identify the flag?”
“I see a hammer with fire.”
The good thing about dealing with greenskins is that they have no intention of hiding themselves.
However, it also leads to lower morale.
“The lava hammer shock battalion.”
Silence prevails. Even though I attended the meeting, but only staring blankly, the mood subsides clearly.
The orc empire is an empire.
Its power is endless.
Greenskin’s Shock Battalion.
In modern terms, it is like a tank unit.
It’s not like the troll cavalry operated by a small number. All of the troops are trolls and ogres.
“We are heavily armed with knight-level equipment…”
“I’m sure.”
Trolls and ogres wearing iron armor, which is not a normal thing to make and dress according to their gigantic body.
And not a wooden club that was roughly pulled from somewhere, but a hammer of refined steel.
Even though they pride themselves on showing their naked body, they are trained enough to willingly cover their bodies with armor.
These are truly medieval fantasy tanks.
There are no shamans in this unit.
because there is no need
