701 Convergence (1/2)
Noether Kingdom, Corso City.
An adventurer team slowly walked through the city gates and simultaneously released a deep sigh. ”Finally safe!”
In this world, there was also an Adventurer Society. The adventurers were all at least seasoned and experienced soldiers, and even Extraordinaries were commonly seen.
And this small team of adventurers was entirely comprised of professionals.
It consisted of two warriors, one assassin, one sorcerer, and one archer.
With the combined forces of these five professionals, it would be better for any small army that they encountered to completely retreat. They were also able to hunt demon beasts and could be considered a strong power.
”Yeah, I didn't imagine that just one simple task could actually become so dangerous!” The sorcerer in the team removed his hood and revealed a pale face. ”We even met an army of Evil Demons!”
Their current task was to investigate the geomorphology and reproduction of the demon beasts outside the city.
There were naturally demon beasts in the Monger World..
Even the most common demon beast was on par with a professional's power. There were even legendary species like the Ancient Dragon that would have a Legend's brutal power once mature.
Regardless of whether it was a human or a demon beast, the descent of the Gods and the undulations of the world had treated all equally with its catastrophes.
Some wild beasts and demon beasts could not withstand it and thus became extinct. Some instead survived tenaciously, but had to migrate due to the ecological changes in their environment.
This was undeniably a huge catastrophe for the human world.
”My God… ever since those damned Evil Demons appeared, this world has changed…”
The former soldier team leader also lamented, ”Previously, even the lowest ranked professional could scrape by decently. Now even we have no choice but to painstakingly work.”
”After completing this task, we'll obtain a hundred Noether gold coins!”
”Leader, after splitting the money, we must rest well!”
The archer and assassin looked at each other and spoke with a clear voice. They were actually both women.
”Definitely!”
The team leader nodded his head, and a thread of cold light flashed in his pupils. Just nice… I can also use this opportunity to kill more Evil Demons and see if my divinity can be enhanced!
The appearance of the Evil Demons was naturally a heaven collapsing earth shattering catastrophe for ordinary people, but for professionals, this was not necessarily the case.
Ordinary people feared the demonic illness like snakes and scorpions, but it did not even cause any observable symptoms on a professional's body. Instead, they could even obtain benefits from the power of the Evil Demons.
Furthermore, after accumulating to a certain extent, it could then produce divinity!
The team leader of this adventurer team was actually a Deity!
With this power, he saw endless possibilities.
If he was an ordinary professional warrior, he would already have no hopes of advancing, and it would be impossible for him to come into contact with the threshold of a high-level professional in his entire life.
However, the appearance of divinity had given him hope. As long as he was able to continuously kill Evil Demons, or even similar people, he could improve at an unbelievable rate.
No! I can't! How can I attack my own species? This is defies the doctrines of the Gods… However, can I really still be considered human? Those churches killing Deities in the dark are no longer a secret…
The team leader's heart endlessly struggled, wanting to maintain his morality.
Instantly, another thought came to him. I heard that some incidents occurred in the main battlefield under Steven. A Son of Salvation appeared who could remove the demonic illness from the bodies of ordinary people. I'm not sure if this is true… but if it's true, would he able to cleanse my divinity?
With this thought, his gaze suddenly became darker.
He would naturally not be willing to completely cleanse and remove his divinity.
After all, if the demonic illness brought the bittersweetness of power and suffering to ordinary people, then to a professional, divinity had more benefits.
At this moment, the appearance of such a 'Son of Salvation' was immediately seen as something very unpleasant for him, even subtly viewing him as an enemy.
This world changes so fast… Should I be more proactive…
Just as this team leader was still thinking this, his gaze suddenly turned toward a group of people at the city entrance.
They seemed to be a similar adventurer team, but their members and equipment were all better.
Especially the adventurer dressed up as a thief, causing him to fixate his gaze.
Divinity!
Just as the team leader made this judgment in his mind, the other party similarly looked over and stared hard at him with a pair of triangular eyes.
Although divinity could be disguised, it was difficult for two Sons of Purgatory to conceal it from each other. This was also Fang Yuan's intentional design.
Being stared at by the other, the team leader instantly shivered all over, as if he was a frog targeted by a viper. He could not move his body slightly, and sweat started flowing down his forehead.
This isn't good. The divinity accumulated by this thief is definitely far greater than mine!
A thought flashed through his mind, and he instantly became extremely mournful and afraid.
