Chapter 355 – Pantheon (3)

I thought that there would be only one divine being in each holy land.

It wasn’t really like that.

Although the gods of the Pantheon did not live and cooperate in the holy lands of other gods.

Other subordinate gods belonging to the gods of the Pantheon were gathered.

[… Didn’t I say it? The Pantheon is a major force that occupies most of the universe and dimensions known to date. It will be difficult if you think about their holy land and if they put all their strength there.]

It is.

About ten gods were gathered in the holy land of the god we first arrived at.

Among them, one of the gods who seemed to be the owner of the holy land seemed quite powerful.

The remaining nine gods were just as threatening.

The God of Gochang I met when pursuing the God of Hope.

And the God of Horror from the Ruler I ate in Antarctica.

That was it.

Although I certainly encountered more gods than I had thought.

The power difference remained the same.

We were overwhelmingly superior.

[Stay away.]

The main deity here declared.

The enormous body of the deity, leaning on the holy ground, looked like a mountain range.

Huge pressure poured over me and the giants who were flying with Talaria’s wings spread out.

I endured it without falling.

There is a difference.

We have to use our strength to endure this pressure, but the god of the Holy Land can pressure us without any consumption.

There is only one answer.

Quick decision.

I prepared a technique that I felt familiar and comfortable.

A red sphere was formed in the front.

It was only a small object, but no one would look down on it.

If they could recognize the power in there.

It wasn’t only one.

The giants, who I gave all my skills to, also formed red spheres.

Soon, hundreds of spheres were engraved in the air.

After all preparations were completed, the sphere’s power was released.

“Zit pop.”

I didn’t know that I would continue to use the technique with this ridiculous name even after I became a god.

Along with the roaring sound of heaven and earth, the giants, the gods of the other side, and the holy land were all engulfed in flames.

Zit pop’s violent power exploding from close range was strong enough to turn everything into nothing, but none of the giants I brought fell to that power.

[You have completed the quest of the God of Light.]

[The quest window is updated.]

[The God of Light proposes a new quest.]

[The quest window is updated.]

[You have completed the quest of the God of Light.]

[The quest window is updated.]

[Quest of the God of Light…….]

The message appeared dizzy with the update of the quest.

I ignored it.

It was clear that Busan was trembling because the God of Light was excited anyway.

Zit pop’s firepower covered the whole world.

It is a technique that I used frequently before reaching the 60th floor and even right before I gained divinity.

Of course, even after being trapped on the 60th floor, I continued to improve it again and again.

Although it was a powerful technique that could damage the gods with only the physical force and firepower of the explosion.

There was one more advantage.

The true value of this technique is revealed when using divine power, not magic, as a material.

The firepower generated through zit pop does not disappear immediately after the explosion, but encroaches on the space.

You can gain many advantages simply by spreading firepower filled with divine power to the whole world.

Especially in other gods’ holy lands.

No matter how sacred it is, it cannot be used directly against other gods.

The fundamental difference between divine and magical power lies in the dominance that can be applied directly to others.

The power to make a fire inside the enemy’s body, instead of making a fireball and sending it out.

That was the ability of divine power.

However, it is not possible to exert such dominance against the same deity.

The same was true for gods’ power.

The flames of the zit pop, which spread widely in this holy place, hindered the other gods’ exercising dominance.

The only way to counter this technique is to prevent the spread of firepower that is thrown out through the zit pop.

However, it will not be easy to suppress hundreds of explosions of zit pop with simple physical force.

Impossible.

I said it because it was a technique I created.

I was pretty confident.

When it comes to physical power alone, there will be no other technique like this.

Giants flooded toward the gods of the Pantheon who were flustered in the flames of zit pop.

There was a god who had a huge figure like a mountain range, but he didn’t even look very big because so many giants were sticking to him.

It felt like a group of elementary school students sticking to the body of an adult male.

But those giants couldn’t be seen as children.

Sticking to it, wounding the body of the gods, and persistently hindering the exercise of power.

Normally, the gods are weak in a battle of the flesh.

I didn’t face many gods, but I was able to affirm this.

There is no way that a godlike being who can play with others freely through dominance can conceive such an ugly and barbaric fight.

It was said that there were sometimes territorial disputes between the gods of the Pantheon, but there were no direct conflicts between the gods.

It’s got to be so.

Because the risk is too great.

It is as primitive as if the heads of the warring nations gathered together to decide the victory or defeat of a war by boxing each other.

However, we have honed that primitive method.

Thinking of what was already stolen rather than what we lost.

It was possible because we prioritized the defeat of our enemy and the victory against them, over safety and security.

The god of the Pantheon fell to the giants who had been preparing nonstop only for this moment to kill the gods.

The limbs were broken to pieces.

After being picked up, the head was crushed.

The chest was revealed, and the organs that were filling it were scattered on the floor.

The incarnation that died in a brutal manner disappeared into the air without even leaving a handful of dust as the power of the Holy Land faded.

Listening to the shouts of the giants, I called in the flames that were filling the Holy Land.

It interfered with my vision.

The fire that was filling the world gathered in my hand.

It was only then that I could see clearly the image of the Holy Land that had been smashed in an instant.

[… It’s a really cursed skill.]

Said the God of Hope.

It seemed to overlap with the appearance of his own holy land on fire.

There were two surprising things.

The first is that the god here that was a part of the Pantheon died too easily.

The existence of a god is not limited to a single incarnation.

I didn’t know that if I killed a single incarnate, it would disappear as it is.

[Isn’t it a holy place? Think about what that means. If the incarnation was killed by force in the Holy Land, and the divine nature remains intact, that would be a miracle.]

It made sense.

There may be a reason why the God of Hope escaped the conflict in the Holy Land and escaped.

If I could completely destroy the god by just killing the incarnation in the holy land, it would be easier than I thought.

“Or it will get rather tricky.”

Like the God of Hope, all other gods abandoned the holy land and ran away.

It will take a long time to chase after them.

And we are running out of time now.

The enemies had to be put to an end before Earth and the holy lands of the 60th and 61st floors were completely destroyed.

[No way. What kind of god would leave their holy land and run away.]

“You are.”

[I am special, but the case of ordinary gods is different. For the god to abandon their Holy Land, they must be prepared for extinction.]

It’s always like that.

When the power of God becomes one’s strength, it becomes a new weakness when looked at from another point of view.

The end result is always redemption.

One interesting fact is that the main god here from the Pantheon was extinguished while trying to resist, but all the lower gods fled.

Oh, not everyone.

Two lower gods were dead in the corner.

Little by little, the figures were disappearing, but the cause could be guessed from the remaining parts.

They were hit hard by zit pop and were horribly killed by the giants.

“What about those?”

This is not a holy land for those lower gods.

Their incarnations died in the holy land of another god, so the gods perished

[But, they’re garbage. It is a waste to call them gods because their incarnation is dead, and they perished.]

The God of Hope spit out venomous words.

It seems to me that they were unfit to be called gods.

They would be more of a Ruler than a god.

They were tied to the body, and when that body died, they died together.

“Grandmother.”

[Whoo, I can’t believe I have to endure that boiling heat all the time.]

As I called the grandmother, she came up with a grunt.

For grandmother or other ice giants with the properties of ice, it would be more difficult to endure the firepower of the zit pop.

However, there was nothing like an explosion in the expansion of power.

The characteristics of grandmother and ice giants were resistances to freezing rather than expansion.

[Do you have anything you want me to do?]

If 500 people do everything together, the risk will be lower.

But we didn’t have enough time.

I had to split up my team to get things done.

“Follow those who have run away from here.”

The low-ranking gods who abandoned the main god here and ran away using a quick judgment of the situation.

I had no intention of letting them go.

[How should we treat them?]

“The guys who were hostile to us, pull out all their heads.”

There is no negotiation or compromise anymore.

We must show the world the price for their hostility.

Grandmother said she knew, and gathered some of the giants.

Each of the lower gods made a portal and escaped somewhere.

I had to pursue them before the coordinates of the portal disappeared.

I confirmed that grandmother and several giants were moving through the portal.

After waiting a little longer, the power of the dead god from the Pantheon was completely lifted.

Now this place was not a holy place for any god.

It could be called blank.

I attempted to communicate with Earth.

It was possible to connect directly to Hochi without any interference.

[Some of the holes that were pouring into the earth have just disappeared.]

Hochi spoke as soon as communication arrived.

A few.

Was the god of this holy land connecting several gates?

Or, have other gods who have peeked at the end of this holy land removed their hands.

I didn’t know.

[The quest window is updated.]

[The quest window is updated.]

[Quest window…….]

The messages appeared loudly because of the quest window.

As I thought it was because of the God of Light, so I opened the quest window annoyingly.

[Quest Window]

[God of Light – Zit Pop! (Complete)]

[God of Light – Zit Pop! (Complete)]

[God of Light – Zit Pop! (Complete)]

[God of Light – Zit Pop! (Complete)]

[God of Light – Zit Pop! (Complete)]

.

.

[God of Light – Zit Pop! (New!)]

All those who knew about the God of Light agreed on the same advice.

Just ignore it.

I decided to follow that advice.

Let’s just skip this.

[God of Destruction – ??? (Complete)]

Explanation: ???

[God of Forest – ??? (Complete)]

[God of Pain – ??? (Complete)]

[God of Deception – ??? (Complete)]

[God of Chaos – ??? (Complete)]

The items in the quest window were filled with ‘???’.

However, some of the gods’ quests were marked as complete.

Even if I clicked to see the detailed explanation, the window only displayed ‘???’.

[It’s a mess.]

Said the God of Hope.

“What. Explain.”

[It means there was an uproar in the Hundred Gods Temple.]

God of Hope belonged to the Hundred Gods Temple.

All the gods belonging to the origin war should have one incarnation in the space called the ‘Hundred Gods Temple’.

There seems to be something happening there.

[This is because your power exceeds everyone’s expectations.]

“Give me more details.”

[The moderate gods are taking their hands off, saying they don’t want to be related to you anymore.]

Is it?

There was nothing bad right now.

As the God of Hope said before, it was a time when we had to pay attention to the Pantheon rather than the Hundred Gods Temple.

By the way.

Those are moderate gods?

Moderate gods are in a state of deity…….

It wasn’t something I could care about right now.

First, let’s finish what I need to do.

Now it was time to invade the holy land of the next Pantheon god.

There were still plenty of enemies to kill.

I couldn’t fail by wasting time.

Originally, it was necessary to trace back the coordinates of the sacred places connected to Earth.

“Hey, do you know where they are, the holy lands of the gods of the Pantheon? Give me the coordinates.”

[… I know.]

Fortunately, there was a good navigator.
