The Hidden Knight of Mystra Chapter 224: The First Experience of Divinity
Leave the secret hall room.
Roger followed the priestess named Luna to the side hall.
There were six people gathered in the hall.
Cecilia naturally occupies the most central position.
The five handsome men and beautiful women next to him wore badges on their chests like Roger. They were all high-level believers of the Queen and participants in this secret operation.
See Roger coming.
Everyone cast curious glances at him.
After all, in the divine badge, Mr. Bard's reply was too unique and attracted their attention.
Well-informed people linked it to the disappearance of Saburo Amami.
Before Roger came.
They had actually already discussed it secretly.
The other five people, except Cecilia, placed a bet on this matter.
Then a tall and thin man came up with a smile:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Bud, I'm White Jack, I've heard of your name... Excuse me, is it Tian Hai Saburo..."
"I killed him."
Roger interrupted him bluntly.
Bai Jack's face suddenly turned ugly.
A girl next to him chuckled:
"I guessed right. Don't forget to pay later."
"Hello, I'm Jasmine."
The others also came up to greet them enthusiastically.
Roger responded coldly.
To avoid trouble.
He positioned himself as a "fanatic who doesn't care about anyone except the Queen."
Everyone saw him like this.
I wasn't surprised.
Although most of the senior believers in the church are transactional people.
But a large organization like the Sea Serpent Church should have some powerful fanatics in addition to the high priest.
The group chatted for a while.
Not long.
They closed their mouths at the same time in tacit agreement.
Because Cecilia, who was surrounded in the middle, opened her eyes at this moment.
Her eyes looked quite tired, especially when she looked at Roger, there was a hint of complicated emotions in her eyes.
Cecilia whispered:
"I received the Queen's oracle."
"She will definitely win this battle of gods, and it won't take long."
"She has seen your performance, and the rewards for the secret mission will be distributed soon."
"The situation in the main material world."
"Although the Sea Wolf Army has been defeated, the Sea Wolf God and the Deep Sea Python's diehards will launch a final attack on Thousand Snake Island, so there must be a final battle in the waters of Thousand Snake Island."
"Next."
"You can choose to act freely, or you can join the guards of Thousand Snake Island and obey His Highness Warren's orders..."
After a discussion.
All but the weaker White Jack chose to go free.
To this.
Cecilia had expected this.
She then gave them a few words of encouragement and cast another round of "Divine Grace" on everyone, and this makeshift team was then disbanded.
afterwards.
Cecilia found Roger alone, expressed her approval of his pious behavior, and told him that his actions had attracted the Queen's attention.
Finally.
She stretched out her little hand.
He gently stroked Roger's chest and said:
"This is the Queen's reward to you."
Do all this.
She turned and left.
Roger stared at the data column silently.
…
"Hint: You have obtained 0.1 of 'Ownerless Divinity'"
…
"It has been detected that you possess 0.1 divinity. You have achieved a new milestone: your first experience of divinity."
"The first experience of divinity: the existence of divinity means that half of you is close to God, and the remaining half is not necessarily human"
"Corresponding title: Demigod (XP increase speed of the practitioners of the Kingdom of God is doubled)"
…
“It’s actually divinity…”
Roger was a little surprised. The Queen was so generous!
For the profession of "God's Kingdom Practitioner", divinity is much rarer than personality.
Why is Warren so arrogant?
It is because he is the queen's eldest son and is born with 0.1 divinity.
He possesses unique advantages both in terms of accumulating status and controlling power.
Even though the queen is a senior ascender, her divinity is invaluable.
For those who practice the Kingdom of God.
If the personality comes too quickly, it is easy for the foundation to become unstable. This is when "divinity" can come in handy.
It is the ascended one's realization of the power of personality.
Divine energy can help personal practitioners look down on their own power from a higher perspective.
In simple terms.
This thing is a bit like the "state of mind" in classical fantasy novels.
If your strength grows too fast but your state of mind is not enough.
It is easy to go astray.
And 0.1 divinity is enough for ordinary people to upgrade.
Special.
To Roger, this divinity means a lot.
His character improved faster than anyone else.
In the short term, it won't be a big problem if you have a high level of understanding.
It is indeed a hidden danger over time.
…
"The Queen's methods are still clever..."
"This bit of divinity is both a reward and a warning."
Very quickly.
Roger came to his senses.
The Queen's hidden meaning is very obvious -
"I have seen the speed at which you have accumulated your status. I am giving you some divinity so that you can take it easy.
If I tell you to retreat, then retreat. I can tolerate some of your little tricks, but don’t think of causing trouble at this critical moment…”
To prevent mistakes.
Roger confirmed it twice more using his sixth sense and divination.
That's pretty much what I mean.
"Sure enough, everything is in her plan."
"In this case, maybe letting the Sea Wolf God rescue the giant python is also part of her plan..."
Roger pondered for a moment, and after confirming through various means that this divinity could not reveal its own information, he absorbed it into his body.
On his chest.
The divine and marine personages merge into one.
Soon, the person who had been a little restless recently calmed down.
Roger could clearly feel that he had a deeper understanding of the power of personality.
It was a very mysterious feeling.
It's hard to explain.
But it does exist.
After doing all this.
Roger strode out of the secret hall of Thousand Snake Island and his figure disappeared into the sea.
After 10 minutes.
On the endless sea.
He took out the series of believer badges, crushed them one by one, and then threw them into the sea.
…
"Hint: You destroyed the Sea Serpent Queen's Believer Badge (Pious Version)"
…
"Warning: Your actions may anger the Sea Serpent Queen."
…
With a crackling sound.
Roger tore off the middle-aged man's human skin mask and changed his clothes.
From now on.
There is no such person as Bud on the sea anymore.
Roger hasn’t decided on a new vest yet.
But anyway, it has nothing to do with the Sea Serpent Church.
That was the extent of his collaboration with the Queen.
Overall, this cooperation was quite pleasant.
He did a lot for the Sea Serpent Church, enough to offset the little divinity bestowed by the Queen.
Neither party owes each other anything.
The reason for leaving now is, on the one hand, because the "Haidilao" operation has ended, and there is not much benefit in staying in the Sea Serpent Church.
On the other hand, it was because the Queen had set her sights on him.
He had to get out of the Queen's sight.
Because next.
He was about to do something that might make her furious.
Under the sea in the distance.
A huge shadow is slowly approaching Thousand Snake Island.
Roger summoned a somersault cloud and flew high into the sky.
Looking down from the sky.
He could see that the color of the sea near Thousand Snake Island had become noticeably darker.
This is not the color of normal sea water.
He sat on the cloud and waited quietly.
After a moment.
A thunderous roar of beasts broke the tranquility of the Thousand Snake Islands.
More than twenty sea monsters as big as islands emerged from the bottom of the sea!
On every sea monster.
There is a "God's Kingdom Practitioner" standing in each of them!
God of Sea Wolves, Immaculate Mother, God of the Black Sea, God of Periscope...
All the would-be ascenders who had joined the Deep Sea Python showed up.
Immediately following.
A snake head that seemed bigger than the sun violently pierced through the surface of the sea!
But then it opened its bloody mouth.
With just one bite, it swallowed up a nearby island where many innocent people lived!
“Crash!”
In an instant, the waves surged as if the sea god was angry.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss!”
All the horses in the world were silent, only the giant python was left to wreak havoc.
Thousand Snake Island is in chaos!
The smaller islands with lower terrain were submerged by the sea in an instant !
At this moment.
A soft force spread out from the Thousand Snake Island Temple.
In the dim sky and earth.
A woman with eyes like stars and feet like jade appeared.
…
"Hint: You have encountered a deep sea python (remaining seals: 1/3)"
…
"Hint: You have encountered the Queen of Sea Serpents"
…
"The third chapter of the God War Quest has begun..."
…
The decisive battle finally came unexpectedly.
This time.
Roger chose to watch from the sidelines on the somersault cloud.
The stage for this battle is set for the would-be Ascendants.
Although he has the ability to meddle, he doesn't want to do anything without high returns.
There was only one thing he had to do.
That's waiting!
Waiting for the final outcome of this battle.
on the data bar.
"God War Mode" shows that Roger's camp has suddenly become "neutral".
besides.
Two new bounties also appeared.
One of them is naturally a sinful giant deep-sea python.
As for the other one...
"Are you really going to chop off your thighs?"
Roger laughed to himself.
He continued to wait silently.
…
This battle lasted for a long, long time.
The war brought huge cumulonimbus clouds.
This allows Roger's Somersault Cloud to be extremely durable.
that's all.
Seven days passed slowly.
All the twenty or so sea monsters died.
The practitioners of the Kingdom of God under the command of the Deep Sea Python were also wiped out.
The Sea Wolf God is nowhere to be found.
The Thousand Snake Island side also suffered heavy casualties.
Only one in ten living creatures on the island survived.
Most of them were killed by the disaster caused by the deep-sea python.
These seven days.
Roger saw it clearly.
The deep-sea python may be fighting for its life with all its might.
But the sea serpent queen was always at ease, and several times she was able to kill the giant python directly.
But she didn't.
The rhythm of the battle was always under her control.
In the eyes of those innocent people who died.
The Queen has done her best.
But in Roger's eyes.
The fact is just the opposite.
…
"Sixth sense: You noticed that the sea snake queen seemed to be deliberately reducing the number of creatures around Thousand Snake Island..."
…
This is not uncommon.
These days, Roger has been pondering the details of "The Raging Sea Blood Whirlpool" and has already noticed many things that are wrong.
Think purely from the perspective of interests.
The biggest beneficiary of this battle was the Sea Serpent Queen.
The second beneficiary was actually a deep-sea python!
And they are precisely the opposing sides in this war.
It's outrageous no matter how you look at it.
"The Deep Sea Python really wants to swallow the entire ocean. He is a pure villain..."
"But the Queen may not be absolutely decent."
Roger was thinking while gathering his strength.
He played over and over again in his mind those carefully planned plans.
that's all.
Another two days passed in a flash.
The only thing in the nearby sea that did not sink was Thousand Snake Island itself.
The rest of the islands sank into the endless abyss.
"hiss!"
The deep-sea python, which was exhausted by the beating of the sea serpent queen, finally couldn't hold on any longer.
In the shocking waves.
His body sank into the sea and fled to the bottom of the ocean.
The sea serpent queen pretended to chase him, then let him go.
But in a corner that she had never noticed.
A nimble figure slid into the sea.
Pull the "Underwater Slingshot" to its full capacity.
The next moment.
A thin line of light gold appeared in Roger's field of vision.
"She has already killed one of her sons."
"It wouldn't be too much to kill her future husband again, right?"
Roger thought on a whim.
…
