Chapter 19

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The female players sorted out all the information and began to flood the major game forums to attract traffic.

“Extra, extra. The plot of Genesis has gone out of control, and the NPC has lost control and killed the world boss.”

“The strongest man has made a move, and with the body of a mortal, he has killed a God with his sword.”

“In a fit of anger, the man has killed the evil dragon with his sword, just to make the beauties smile.”

“A real man never explains. The best way to face doubt is to speak with facts.”

Countless posts appeared, describing Walter’s heroic deed of killing Hydra from various angles. There were even some smart-witted kids who turned the male channel’s posts on the analysis of the situation over.

The spectators originally did not know who Hydra the Nine-Headed Dragon was.

Just from its name, it seemed to be a very powerful character.

Under the crazy popularization of science by countless female players, not only Hydra the Nine-Headed Dragon was well-known, even the Evil Dragons’ Mother and the Spider Goddess began to spread widely.

Some people liked to watch gossip, and naturally, there were people who were bored.

Especially when a little bit of nonsense in the game was forcefully transferred by female players to various major media outlets, fanatically promoting it.

It was very unpopular.

There were people who immediately stood up to express their opposition.

The things in the game circle should be left in the game circle.

There was no need to get out of the circle, and there was no need for hard science.

At this time, male video players’ posts appeared.

Especially the analysis of the mastermind directly ignited people’s eyeballs.

What? The end of technology is theology?

Does AI intelligence want to ascend to godhood?

Are we really creating myths?

Will this Prince Walter become the new prototype of the Gods?

Some people like games and some people did not like games, this is a very normal thing.

However, when it came to metaphysics, especially when it involves the philosophical aspects of AI and the Gods, the audience is much larger.

People were talking about this possibility.

There were even human behaviorists who stood out to analyze whether these fanatical and even somewhat crazy female players in the gaming circle were behaving like legendary fanatics.

If faith was the core of godhood.

The person who got these female players’ crazy worship, even if he was just an AI in a virtual world, there was a possibility of success at least in theory?

Some so-called experts also went down to express their opinions.

For a time, the topic of Gods became hot.

And some people who were not originally involved in the game gradually became familiar with the titles the ‘Lordaeron Kingdom’ and ‘Prince Walter’.

In the game world, in the Supreme God Church…

“Men, bring in the corpse of Hydra the Nine-Headed Dragon. Bring in the Silver Hand and the Inquisitor. I need their opinions.”

The pope sat alone on the high chair, his hand gently rubbing his forehead, giving him a headache.

Walter had given him a very big problem!

Hydra the Nine-Headed Dragon was a super-class Magical Beast, a Demigod existence.

Even if it was in the Chaotic Evil Camp, its corpse was still a huge fortune.

It was so huge that even the pope of the Supreme God could not underestimate it.

The corpse was complete, and the pope could not see where the fatal wound was.

Legend had it that to kill Hydra, one had to cut off its nine heads and pierce its heart at the same time.

Obviously, Walter had found a better way.

It was also more effective.

Since the Hydra was dead, Walter was still alive as proof.

For a Super-Class Magical Beast or Demigod, they could influence the trend of the world when they were alive. Even after they died, they could still do so.

They were like a whale fall.

In the beauty and desolation, there was also a new hope.

It was the same for a Super-Class Magical Beast.

Its blood was an important material to make High-Level Magic Scrolls, especially the Forbidden Spell Scrolls. It needed the blood of a Super-Class Magical Beast to make ink.

Normal Magic Beasts, even if they were high-level dragons, would not be able to provide the huge amount of magic power needed for the forbidden spell.

The forbidden spell was a power that could only be mastered after reaching the max level of level 100 and changing their Class to the final stage.

Currently, in the entire Church of Light, only the pope had mastered a Light-Type Forbidden Spell.

No, there were two of them now.

Walter had killed Hydra the Nine-Headed Dragon and obtained the approval of the Light Camp. He had received a reward — Angel Descent.

This Angel Descent was not an angel under the Supreme God, but an angel from any Light Camp.

Walter had received a reward from the Light Camp.

This level was much more powerful than the reward from the Supreme God.

In other words, if Walter changed his faith and suddenly stopped believing in the Supreme God, he would still not have to worry about losing the grace from the God of Light.

Walter did not get his power from Divine Spells anyway.

This was very different from being a priest.

The pope’s power came from the gift of God. If he dared to abandon his faith, he would instantly become an ordinary old man.

All of his power, status, and wealth would leave him.

However, Walter was different.

Walter was a Sword Saint, and the Holy Knight was originally given to him by the pope.

It was an honor, but it was also a shackle.

At this moment, Walter was no longer bound by the shackle.

This was certainly a good thing for Walter.

However, for the pope and the Supreme God, it might not be a good thing.

This time, the Silver Hand and the Inquisitor were summoned back to discuss Walter’s matter.

Of course, one of the issues that needed to be discussed was Hydra’s body.

Other than blood, leather, bones, claws, horns, eyes, and scales, even its flesh and blood were all precious materials.

If handled properly, the church would have several more Divine Artifacts.

It would greatly increase their strength and foundation.

Especially since Hydra was a Nine-Headed Dragon, each dragon head had a Dragon Crystal.

This was a wealth that could not be ignored.

Just these nine Dragon Crystals were enough to cover three years of the Lordaeron Kingdom’s taxes.

How should Walter be rewarded for such a great contribution?

Normally, let alone asking for the Silver Hand to immediately hand over power, even the pope’s abdication was not excessive.

After all, Walter had received the Light Camp’s approval, which increased the attributes of the entire human race and the Light Camp by 30% for three days.

However, it was also because Walter had received the light camp’s approval that allowed Walter to break free from the shackles.

A sword was not good just because it was sharp.

Only a sword that could be held in one’s hand was a good sword.

If it was out of control, then the sharper the sword, the greater the danger it represented.

If it backfired on itself…

The pope’s gaze was deep. There were some things that he did not want to think about, but in this position, he had to think about it.

Walter had obtained the approval of the Light Camp. The pope and even the entire Holy See could not make a move against him. However, if it was a conspiracy against the people around him…

For example, the old king.

“Where’s the gift Brother Walter gave me?”

“Is this the Nine-Headed Dragon, Hydra? It’s so big!”

Angela skipped over and let out a series of exclamations. The pope’s expression instantly changed.

Could this be a betrothal gift?
