Chapter 86 Ice Giant, The Path to Godhood
At that time, that person was unbeatable. No one could match him.
That was truly someone no one could contend with.
It didn't matter if you dealt physical damage or magical damage; touching him meant certain death.
Because his counter-damage wasn't based on how much he took but on his Physical Defense and Magic Defense.
'Wait!'
Alan suddenly thought of something.
'What if this person is bound to James?'
'Oh my God!'
Just thinking about it terrified Alan.
His health, combined with that person's Physical Defense and Magic Defense, meant that in the late game, no one could harm James except with true damage.
The key was James also has gear with lifesteal abilities, which allows him to recover health when taking damage. This makes him unbeatable.
However, Alan thought of a rather awkward situation.
It was that guy later revealed in the game that watching the promotional video would reward a God-tier talent awakening stone.
Unfortunately, Alan had already claimed the God-tier talent awakening stone by watching the promotional video,
So that guy probably didn't get it.
At this moment, his talent hadn't awakened yet.
With this in mind, Alan immediately sent a message to James.
Alan: [James, add a player named SteadyStrategist and bring him into the guild.]
Alan knew a bit about this SteadyStrategist; while his character was decent, his gaming style was too conservative.
Whenever he had time, he would hide in some corner grinding his Physical Defense and Magic Defense.
In his belief, as long as his Physical Defense and Magic Defense were high enough, he was invincible.
This idea wasn't wrong, as he could infinitely stack his Physical Defense and Magic Defense.
Morever, his counter-damage trait was strong, not reliant on the damage he took.
In the late game, talents or skills that counter-damage based on received damage weren't practical.
This was because even warriors had decent lifesteal attributes in the late game.
If he counter-damage by thirty percent, and he lifesteals by thirty percent, the counter-damage and lifesteal would cancel each other out.
But SteadyStrategist's counter-damage didn't depend on the damage taken. Even if he only took a little damage, he would reflect a certain percentage of his Physical Defense or Magic Defense as true damage.
This meant his counter-damage could far exceed the damage he received.
James quickly replied that there was no problem.
However,Alan noticed some unpleasant comments on the forum.
The focus was on excessively praising foreign countries.
The cause was that players from their Jinse Empire created Stellaria, a country dominated by foreign culture, worshipping foreign gods.
As a result,many to praise foreign countries,
especially the Suncrest Empire.
Alan saw many comments that almost deified the Suncrest Empire.
Alan just smiled and ignored them, avoiding any unnecessary arguments.
After browsing the forum for a while,
Alan did some exercises and thenre-entered the game.
He still descended into the village.
Alan once again arrived at the stone tablet inscribed with "Ancient Kingdom, Resting Here."
He passed through the stone tablet.
Alan once again felt the divine presence descending.
But this time, the divine presence had no effect on him.
Even his attack and movement speed reductions in the snow had disappeared.
The ice serpent did not appear.
Alan moved forward and saw a withered tree ahead.
Its branches were bare, stripped of leaves.
Alan stepped up to the tree and seemed to see something covered in snow beneath it.
Alan brushed away the snow and found a chessboard underneath.
"Is this chess?"
Alan didn't know how to play chess but had seen animations introducing it on video websites, so recognizing it wasn't difficult.
However, the pieces and board were frozen into ice sculptures.
Next to the board were some words.
[The sky as the board, stars as the pieces, seal the sky to become a god.]
Alan's fingers touched the icy chessboard, feeling a bit surprised.
These words were quite bold.
"Seal the sky to become a god!"
It seemed to outline a method to achieve godhood.
In his past life, Alan knew that the mainstream ways of becoming a god were through faith and good deeds.
Faith meant being worshipped by others, while good deeds meant one's virtuous acts.
But compared to faith, performing good deeds was more difficult, because it was really hard to figure out how to judge virtuous acts.
For example, saving someone might not increase good deeds but decrease them because that person could be a villain.
But faith was different.
Regardless of good or evil, as long as someone worshiped you, you could gain the power of faith.
Of course, besides faith and good deeds.
Alan also knew that enlightenment was another path to achieving godhood.
Enlightenment meant understanding a certain truth to an extreme degree, which could give birth to a corresponding divine character, thus becoming a god.
Similar to the Snow Corpse's predecessor, the Ice and Snow Goddess, who likely became a god through understanding the truth of ice and snow.
This method of becoming a god was entirely new to Alan.
"The sky as the board, stars as the pieces," truly bold.
But he didn't know if this boldness was genuine or just for show.
After all, in his past life, Alan had encountered those who talked big but lacked real strength.
However, ahead was the "Ancient Kingdom, Resting Here," so Alan was somewhat expectant.
What if he could unlock a new method of becoming a god?
Besides, Alan also wanted to know, who exactly was the person who killed a god with a mortal's body, and how did he manage to do it.
A mortal killing a god!
Such simple words, but Alan knew very well how difficult it was for a mortal to kill a god.
Gods were exalted, their power immeasurable.
Their divine presence was terrifyingly suppressive.
In his past life, Alan had heard of mortals slaying gods, but they were all beings who had pushed their power to the extreme, and they had the aid of divine equipment.
Similar to the Godslayer Mark Alan had obtained, which was classified as divine.
Thinking about these things, Alan knew that he should continue forward.
Based on previous experiences, crossing a landmark would bring new dangers.
This time was no exception.
After passing the chessboard, the snow began to tremble slightly, as if something huge was about to break through.
Then, a loud noise.
Snow erupted ahead of Alan and a giant fist smashed toward his head.
The fist was as large as a millstone, incredibly fast, with a powerful gust of wind.
But Alan was prepared, ready to dodge as soon as the ground started shaking.
So before the fist reached him, Alan had already rolled away.
Landing, he shot an arrow.
[-97,315!]
A huge damage number appeared.
With one arrow, Alan took nearly a hundred thousand health points from the creature.
At the same time, Alan saw its attributes.
[Ice Giant (Silver): Level 50.]
[Health: 8,490W/8,500W.]
[Attack: 33,359.]
[Skills: ???]
