Chapter 88 Hall of Glory: the Ice Goddess
Next, Alan continued to move forward.
Still, it was covered in white snow.
However, this time Alan saw a palace in the distance.
The palace was in ruins, resembling a castle-type palace more than an ancient temple.
But it was much more grand and imposing than an ordinary temple.
When he arrived at the palace,
Alan's gaze fell on the plaque at the entrance.
Written on that plaque was "Hall of Glory!"
A rather strange name, not as imposing as a conventional palace.
Alan stepped up to the Hall of Glory, and a special power emanated from it.
The divine aura enveloping Alan dissipated!
Although Alan had the mark of a god-slayer, which made him immune to divine aura, it didn't mean the divine aura disappeared.
Now, standing here, Alan could clearly feel the divine aura being pushed back.
After a moment of contemplation, Alan stepped into the Hall of Glory.
As soon as he entered, Alan saw a not-so-tall statue in the center of the Hall of Glory.
It was a figure dressed in armor, exuding the aura of an ancient general.
Alan's gaze fell on the ancient general holding a long sword.
The sword was broader than any Alan had seen before.
If it weren't long enough, Alan would have suspected it was a shield.
On either side of the ancient general were two stone pillars, each with a line of text.
[The gods are powerless, and humanity suffers.]
[Slay the gods for survival, and be immortal.]
Alan raised an eyebrow. It seemed that this ancient general was the god-slaying warrior.
Alan looked around but didn't see the name of this ancient general.
At the same time, he was also curious.
There seemed to be safe here.
If that's the case, then, as before, passing through here would lead him into danger.
And his intuition told Alan.
If this was the palace of the god-slaying general, then what's ahead?
The answer was already evident.
Alan stepped through the Hall of Glory.
Beyond the Hall of Glory, it was no longer endless snow.
But lava!
A vast expanse of scorching lava.
Everywhere Alan looked, it was all lava.
Alan was stunned.
On one side, there was endless snow, and on the other, an endless sea of lava. It was terrifying.
In the middle of the lava, there was a path, and Alan couldn't see the end of it.
He stepped onto this black road with blood-red patterns.
Alan didn't know what would happen next.
Most likely, there would be some kind of monster.
The ice giant's health was already as high as 85 million.
If there were monsters here, how high would their health be?
Alan's lips curled up, eager to stack more health.
However, some things were destined to disappoint him.
He walked for almost ten minutes.
Still, no monsters appeared, as if there were none here at all.
At this moment, Alan suddenly felt a chill sweeping towards him.
'Is it here?'
Instead of being afraid, Alan was somewhat expectant.
After all, a dungeon like this, where he could crazily stack health before the second job change, was rare in Alan's experience.
A woman in icy clothing floated out from the lava ahead.
"A spirit?"
Alan raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on her.
[???: ???]
[Health: ???]
[Attack: ???]
[Skills: ???]
All were question marks, not a single attribute was visible to Alan.
Alan tightened his grip on his longbow and asked in a deep voice. "Are you the Ice Goddess?"
The Ice Goddess nodded. "Yes, I am the Ice Goddess."
Alan's eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand, shooting an arrow.
The Ice Goddess frowned slightly, and the arrow flying towards her froze into an ice sculpture, then shattered.
"As expected of the Ice Goddess."
Alan raised an eyebrow. He had anticipated this, but since he had come this far, a battle was inevitable.
"Adventurer, we don't have to be enemies."
The Ice Goddess spoke slowly, her voice ethereal, as if it could penetrate one's soul.
"What do you mean?" Alan looked at the Ice Goddess with interest. "If we don't have to be enemies, can we be friends?"
"Of course," the Ice Goddess said. "As long as you help me, I can grant you a country."
"Stellaria, offering a nation to befriend you, is that sincere enough?"
Hearing this, Alan's breath quickened.
compared to those big countries outside , Stellaria might not seem significant.
But if he could obtain Stellaria, the benefits would be immeasurable.
Players would later create territories, but developing a territory into a city-state was already rare.
Taking it further was extremely difficult.
However, Alan knew one thing very well: benefits and risks coexist.
There wouldn't be benefits falling into your lap for no reason.
When someone offers you great benefits, there is likely a great danger behind it.
"Why should I trust you?" Alan asked.
The Ice Goddess confidently said, "I am a deity; I don't lie."
"Don't say such grandiose words. No one can prove that deities don't lie, Alan said. "You're a deity, which only proves you're powerful. And now you're in a spirit state, likely sealed. That only proves you were powerful, but it doesn't prove you don't lie."
Alan's sharp words made the Ice Goddess somewhat angry.
As a deity, being questioned by a mortal like this was infuriating.
"What will it take for you to trust me?" the Ice Goddess asked.
"I won't make it hard for you. Just give me a few thousand free attribute points or a few artifacts, divine skills, and I might believe you."
Hearing Alan's words, the Ice Goddess's face turned extremely grim.
'A few thousand free attribute points?'
'Do you think free attribute points are that easy to get?'
'And a few artifacts? Giving you one artifact would already be a huge favor.'
"I can't give you those. Currently, I'm sealed and can only give you a blessing from the gods," the Ice Goddess said.
"Alright, then give me a blessing from the gods first," Alan said.
"No problem, but you have to promise to help me." the Ice Goddess requested.
"What do you need help with?" Alan asked.
