Gamer System in Campione - Chapter 29
🕑 Added 2021-11-28 03:21:49 +0000 UTCOzymandias ran toward a forest away from the crowds of people in the city.
Using one of the spells he had learned, Ozymandias summoned a sword in his hand as he prepared himself.
When he reached the park, I immediately went into the forest, stopping abruptly, digging my foot into the ground and preparing for the attack.
The first wolf burst through the foliage, snarling with its jaws wide open as it went for the open jugular to rip open the throat of its opponent-
Only to have its head cut in half by Ozymandias' sword.
The other wolves also erupted and, seeing their dead relatives on the ground, began circling cautiously around me, probably trying to get into formation so they could use the "hit and run" technique from various sides.
However this was useless when Ozymandias firmed his foot on the ground and fired at them using his immensely strong body to kill them all before they could react.
"Alice, I have neutralized the wolves. Where should I go to find Anton?" Ozymandias asked as he dismissed his sword, calmly leaving the forest as if he had done nothing but walk in the park.
"Ah, that was quick, Ozymandias. If you go southwest from where you are now, you will reach Vodno, a large park south of Skopje."
"I see ... Things are getting more hectic. Alice, since I have made contact with Voban, please be careful and around you. The people of the Balkan United Magicians Alliance may attack you if they become desperate or suspect your activities."
"My man ... It's okay, Ozymandias. Don't worry about me. On the off chance that they identify you even with your civilian clothes and cap, I know how to protect myself well."
"... All right. But be careful and call me if you think you can't handle the danger. I will come as soon as I can."
With Alice's assurance, the Sun King turned off the [Telepathic Link] and looked south, where the sun was shining in the sky.
And he ran.
...
...
After running about three kilometers, Ozymandias stopped.
Because he didn't feel anyone following him, Ozymandias took off the shirt he was wearing that had wolf blood on it.
As it was late May, the cool breeze seemed to soothe his skin.
After staring at the expressionless sky for a second, Ozymandias summoned another cap and put it on his head, taking care to wear a different logo instead of the one he was wearing while following Voban.
Instead of running across the rooftops, he walked down the alley before joining the crowd that came with the holiday's afternoon atmosphere, hailing a cab to go to his destination instead of running across the rooftops.
"Ah! Ozymandias! Please run to the mountain!"
"What happened?"
"All the people on top of the mountain who were near the building suddenly disappeared! I think it's a massive teleportation spell!"
"A teleportation spell? Then the civilians should be somewhere other than on top of the mountain, right?"
"No, the teleportation spell costs a lot of magic energy and the distance a person can travel depends on how much mass the person has. Even with a large amount of magic, transporting them to a place far away from the mountain is impossible."
...
...
*Unknown Location.*
He stood before the altar, looking at the blank faces of the people who had recently been transported here through teleportation magic.
"Your Majesty, the ritual will be complete before sunset."
A man spoke up.
He had a name that began with "A," but Voban did not deign to remember the man's name.
He had better things to do than remember the name of the trash of human society.
Soon.
It would be soon, when the time for battle would come.
For decades he had searched for gods, and once he could, he fought them with endless savagery.
However, no matter what he did, the gods did not appear in the mortal realm in front of him to challenge him, appearing in other parts of the world where other Campiones resided, dying before he could fight them.
How long has it been?
How many years waiting for a god to challenge him?
The last one was over five decades ago, and even with the recent increase in the number of gods and Campiones, he hadn't killed any gods.
He could feel it.
A turn in the gears of the world, where everything would change with the times.
Now he found a way to control the descent of the gods. Through the sacrifice of thousands of souls, the artifact that the AMUB agents found could be used to summon a god.
With this artifact, he could fight any god he wished to fight whenever he wanted.
Through this artifact, he could enjoy the thrill of life and death battle anytime, every time.
...
The discovery of this artifact was ... very convenient. It was as if a higher power wished to see a large piece before them with the Campiones and the gods in the center of the piece.
However, he didn't care, as long as he was able to fight. If he was able to fight as much as he wanted, then he would be happy.
...
...
Sure, there was a choice to fight other Campiones, but he did not acquire his Authorities after killing them.
Sasha Voban loved battle.
And after a long battle, he desired sustenance of food in the form of more power and authorities.
So he was willing to support this poor human who desired the power to be his servant.
He would make them his servants, as they had asked him.
Undead servants, that is, if they survived the sight of the fight between a god and a Campione.
He would give them the honor of becoming his personal dead servants, who would collect more people for sacrifice.
With Ozymandias.
Ozymandias arrived at the park, Vodno, without any major conflicts, paying the taxi driver with the typical coin of the region that he had received from Alice before going to the park entrance.
Well, to call it a park might be to minimize its size.
It was a mountain.
And Ozymandias could see a large cross on its top.
It was the Millennium Cross, a 66-meter high cross situated on top of the Vodno mountain that was built to serve as a memorial to the 2,000 years of Christianity in Macedonia and the world.
It was the largest cross in the world.
Although Ozymandias does not know what they are planning, Anton has entered the building situated just below the cross. Since he can detect any trace of abnormality in magic, you should check inside. The cross may not even be the place where the answer to Voban's presence in this place lies. However, the Sun King believed that this may be the place where Voban may come later.
Because the spiritual veins of the earth are centered around this region.
Spiritual veins are the veins located throughout the earth that bring life to the earth above them. For example, the spiritual veins bring life to the earth that would be a barren land or a sea of death. He saturated the earth with the living, and with greater quantity of spiritual veins, the more the earth prospered.
Furthermore, depending on the quality of the spiritual veins the land possessed, the power of the mages also varied, as the lands with greater amounts of spiritual veins were more connected to the essence of the supernatural and the power of the gods. Therefore, for the mages who used magic, they invoked the powers of the supernatural, buried the powers of the gods partially by reciting the necessary aria to form a connection with the necessary god and shape the magical power within them.
