Chapter 77

Territory Expansion (3)

“Go away.”

Behind Blodane, a few other evil gods are also visible.

『The realms of Celes are empty, so you occupied it, but this is the realm of Olokos. If you don’t want to be enemies with our demons, get out of here.”

Is it because Junyoung became a three-star god?

There was no sign of disdain for Junyoung in Blodane’s expression any longer.

Rather, it is a very cautious expression.

There was no sign of provoking Junyoung as before.

‘I’m tired.’

I was expecting it to come out like this.

In any case, it is not wise to force it here.

The evil spirits will desperately try to prevent another evil spirit from being sealed by Junyoung.

In this situation, it is impossible for Junyoung to enforce it without the help of the gods.

Of course you can’t go barefoot.

Immediately, it means that Junyoung should join the seonshin faction.

‘That’s why I’m quietly watching.’

Waiting for Junyoung to reach out his hand.

Especially if it’s Junyoung’s stage cannon-like personality that he’s shown so far, I’m sure he’ll never back down.

In other words, the good gods like squirrels will be watching this situation with a happy smile.

However, Junyoung did not intend to move as they intended so simply.

‘Anyway, this is a land that can be occupied at any time.’

There’s no reason it should be now.

It doesn’t mean that there’s no immediate benefit from expanding the territory.

And if you look at the current situation, the evil gods will desperately try to block the sealing of the one-star evil god Olokos.

If you force it here, even if it succeeds, it’s not good.

Because it is bound to become the worst hostile relationship with the evil gods.

‘It’s important to keep your balance if you want to be successful in tightrope walking.’

Right now, Junyoung lacks both strength and power.

In this case, if one leans towards either good or evil, it is inevitably subordinated to that side.

‘Keep your balance and develop your abilities to the fullest.’

You have to be strong enough to wipe out both of them.

Then you don’t have to worry about balance or anything.

You’ll just have to wipe it all off.

However, contrary to his feelings, Junyoung glared at Blodane and conveyed his intentions.

“Do you think I’m going to go away quietly just because you say that?”

Then Blodane chuckled.“What do you mean if you don’t go back?”

“As you have seen, I won the duel against Olokos on the battlefield of the gods. That’s why the dimension wall is open. Now, as a commander, not a god, I can wage war against the commander here, Tugal. If you guys interfere with it, it’s a clear violation of the rules.”

Then Blodane frowned.

Because Junyoung is not wrong.

“You are right.”

『·································································?

Junyoung tilted his head for a moment.

Because he didn’t know that Blodane would meekly admit that fact.

I thought I was going to be vicious and disruptive until the end, but what was the plan?

“If you accept my words, don’t disturb me any more and leave.”

Of course, that’s not going to happen.

If you were going to retreat like this, you wouldn’t have come in droves.

In fact, Junyoung is also negotiating to get something instead of retreating because of the face of the evil gods.

“You are right, but we cannot back down. Do you think we will keep our eyes open and watch as no more evil spirits are sacrificed to a guy like you?”

“Are you ignoring me because I am a neutral and alone? I can’t help it. Then, I will also join the Seonshin camp and officially wage war.”

Then, the impression of Blodane was wrinkled so that it could not be added.

He was tasked with protecting Olokos, the god of the Lizardmen, from the higher gods.

But more importantly, don’t provoke Junyoung in getting the job done.

This is because it would be a disappointment if Junyoung joins the Seonshin camp.

『Instead, all dimensional walls will disappear after that. Also, the prohibition on various dungeons in your estates will be lifted.”

It is a condition that Junyoung prepared in advance knowing that he would come out.

Blodane continued speaking with a trembling expression.

“After that, you can freely interact with the commanders of our evil spirit camp.”

“Exchange?”

“Yes. Since then, everything is allowed except for wars between territories. In effect, it means that you are allied with all the commanders of the evil spirit camp. Unexcavated dungeons can be excavated together, and many unknown enemies that will appear in the near future can be dealt with cooperatively.

Ban war and exchange?

It was unimaginable that neither the good gods nor the evil gods would offer such conditions.

But from Junyoung’s point of view, it wasn’t bad.

After all, if he finds the labyrinth, he can become strong enough.

Much faster than killing the commanders and sealing the gods through territorial warfare.

“But who are the unknown enemies talking about?”

Blodane laughed bitterly.

“Is there no reason why I should tell you even that? What is certain is that when that time comes, you, too, will be forced to join us.”

“Something complicated.”

“Now do you know? The world here is far more terrifying and more complicated than you can imagine.”

Looking at Blodane’s hardened expression, it doesn’t seem like he’s saying it for nothing.

However, it cannot go beyond this.“It seems plausible to ban wars between territories and to exchange peacefully, but in fact, it is only a one-sided good condition for you. It’s not like it’s good for me.”

Blodane sighed.

『Anyway, since you won the duel with Olokos, let the commanders of this territory and the three territories pay tribute to you periodically. Is that okay?”

“A tribute?”

『There are things like weapons and food, things found in dungeons, and Awakened prisoners of the earth. We can also mobilize workers for various construction projects.”

“Well, that’s not bad.”

Junyoung nodded.

We need to look at the specific conditions a bit more, but let’s step back from this for now.

It is because of the thought of taking care of the face of the evil gods.

***

[All the dimensional walls surrounding your estate have disappeared.][The 1st Territory Survival Dungeon has been reset.][The First Territory The Dungeon Seal of Life and Death has been unlocked.][You can grant God’s blessing.]

Let’s say that the dimension wall disappeared and the restrictions of various dungeons were lifted.

Because that’s already agreed upon.

However, it feels strange to say that I can bestow God’s blessings.

‘It’s not bad, but it’s kind of embarrassing.’

God’s blessings all down

I feel like I have become a god again now.

When fighting the gods on the battlefield of the gods, I didn’t feel like a god.

Of course, it’s great to have a formidable skill spread over a vast area.

It’s just different from fighting powerful enemies in a stronger state, and fighting to death itself is no different from normal combat.

[There are blessings that you can unfold.][Do you want to acquire them through awakening?]

Gaho wasn’t something that could just be spread out.

Awakening is needed

“Yes.”

No reason to hesitate.

OK.

[God’s protection is awakening.]

.

.

.

[God’s protection “Blessing of Fighting Spirit” has been awakened.][God’s Blessing, “Patience Blessing” has been awakened.]

‘It’s been quite a while longer than I thought.’

He seemed to be brief to himself, but in reality, close to ten days passed.

In the meantime, there was no such thing as a threatening attack on the outside territory.

If that had happened, he would have sensed it himself and reacted immediately even while he was awake.

‘In the meantime, nothing happened except for the fact that the estate was crowded.’

So Junyoung was able to focus on awakening relaxedly, and he succeeded in awakening both blessings.

[Blessing of fighting spirit]

-Classification: God’s Blessing

– Rating: ●

-Effect: Increases the ATK of all members of the territory +30

-Duration: 30 days

-Activation conditions: 3 totems, 1 altar.

-Activation area: Altar radius 30m

【Blessings of Patience】

-Classification: God’s Blessing

– Rating: ●

-Effect: Increases the defense of all members of the territory +30

-Duration: 30 days

-Activation conditions: 3 totems, 1 altar.

-Activation area: Altar radius 30m

Two 1-star Divine Blessings.

These can be unfolded at the same time.

Once unfolded, it is applied in units of a month, and a little energy is consumed each time, but it is not too burdensome.

Of course, if you don’t have enough power, it doesn’t matter if you only expand one of the two or don’t spread your protection.

‘It’s foolish to cherish this.’

For Junyoung himself, 30 points of attack power or defense is just a meaningless figure, but he is not an ordinary awakener.

As the level rises by several steps, it will greatly increase combat power as well as survivability.

‘But you need a totem and an altar?’

Come to think of it, it is true that the blessings of the gods usually take place near the altar.

Even when fighting the goblins near the altar, their fighting power increased rapidly.

Although Junyoung is now able to give such protection.

‘Should I make a totem and an altar?’

However, as both a god and a commander, Junyoung needs no totems or altars to survive as a god.

What sets it apart from other gods.

[You who have pure divine power are not limited by the activation conditions.][When God’s protection is activated, your protection is spread across all your estates.]

just as expected.

As soon as Junyoung looked at her protection skills, an additional notification came.

‘Good.’

When Junyoung unfolds it, it is said that even with the same protection, it is different from the avatar gods.

‘Blessing of fighting spirit! Blessings of patience!’

Junyoung immediately extended God’s blessings.

[Blessing of fighting spirit is activated.][The blessing of patience is activated.][Your divine power is consumed in a small amount.][Increases the ATK of all members of the 7 territories under your control by 30.][Increases the defense of all members of the 7 territories under your control by 30.]

The protection, which was originally limited to only a few troops who could approach the altar, was applied to all family members.

Not only registered subordinates, but also unregistered subordinates, residents, and even slaves received 30 ATK and 30 Defense.

This means that the defense power of each territory has increased significantly.

Because the militia’s fighting power is no joke.

‘You did a good job saving all the elves.’

If this kind of fraudulent protection can be given, the more people in the territory, the better.

The number of elves in the three estates is approximately 700.

The 700-member elf corps would be a formidable force when it comes to defending the territory just by protecting it from just before.

‘But, are these two only of God’s blessings?’

Still, he’s a three-star god.

[Another divine blessing can be found with a rare chance while your commanders or members of your ranks are in various battlefields, dungeons, or gathering resources.][The divine blessings discovered by your family are automatically acquired by you immediately.][However, you may need a certain amount of coins to acquire a bachelor with 2 stars (●●) or higher.]

When Junyoung has a question, his system responds as if it were waiting.

It’s not like this all the time, but sometimes it’s not surprising.

‘After all, there are guardians of a higher star rating.’

Currently, Junyoung has only two 1-star households.

Originally, he had to rely only on the efforts of his family members to get another blessing, but Junyoung doesn’t have to.

He’s also a commander.

He said that he could get it by going around the dungeons himself.

***

For the convenience of governing the territory, Junyoung has appointed the existing elf commanders as the managers of the newly occupied 5th, 6th, and 7th estates.

Of course, they are still slaves.

A situation in which labor must be provided immediately upon request from senior managers, including Kim Dong-hyeok, the manager of the first estate.

Is that so?



In the first estate, about 200 elves were working diligently under the command of Noriel, the manager of the fifth estate and the elf commander (★).Build a log house!

There was a construction site near Junyoung’s hideout building.

“The elves are building log houses very quickly. The craftsmanship is unusual.”



On the 5th floor of the 1st Tower of Knowledge, Junyoung was receiving a report from Kim Donghyuk, the 1st estate manager.

It’s only been 10 days, but about 10 log cabins have already been built.

“How is the interior of the house? It would be nice if it was built properly.”

“The house is very pleasant and cozy. Various bedding, clothes, and daily necessities to be used inside are procured from the dungeon of survival.”

While Junyoung was awakening from God’s protection, Donghyuk Kim said that he had steadily formed a team around the awakened and went around the dungeon of survival.

Maybe that’s why Kim Donghyuk’s level was already 10.

He also piled up a warehouse building with daily necessities such as toilet paper, toothpaste, medicine, underwear, etc., which are hard to find in this world.

So, not only Kim Dong-hyeok, but most of the awakened people were more lively than before.

“However, the dungeon of life and death was too harsh, so I was just waiting for the CEO to come.”

Unlike the dungeon of survival where the difficulty can be selected, the dungeon of life and death was impossible.

It was said that no one had ever challenged the dungeon of life and death until Junyoung took the initiative at the warning of knowledge manager Heros.

‘What is the difficulty level?’

Junyoung was also curious.

Although he is a three-star god, he can only demonstrate his abilities as a commander, that is, as an awakener, when attacking the dungeons of the territory unless it is the battlefield of the gods.

He must be approached with caution as he is.

Immediately, Junyoung went to see Heros.

“Heros! Tell me what you know about the dungeon of life and death.”

“I don’t know for sure. However, it is certain that you are the only one who has the qualifications to challenge it in the current territory.”

Although Heros is arrogant, he candidly says he doesn’t know what he doesn’t know.

As for the dungeon of life and death, there is nothing more to learn from Heros.

‘You’ll know when you hit it yourself.’

Immediately, Junyoung left the Tower of Knowledge and headed towards the dungeon of life and death.

Perhaps they were resting in the meantime, the elves were sitting in the shaded places in the forest to cool off their sweat.

“I’m selling egg bread!”

“2 for 1 coin!”

But in the meantime, I see guys doing business.

none other than Labra.

‘He’s an odd guy anyway.’

Hundreds of eggs are piled up from where you got them.

“Hot Egg Bread!”

“Hehe! If it doesn’t taste good, it’s free!”

Labra was diligently making egg buns, and next to him was a boy in his mid-teens selling bread to customers lining up.

Park Seung-woo (Pilot, Lv9).

He seemed to be working part-time by being hired by Lavra.“Hum! If this egg bread is really tasteless, is it free?”

An orc asked in front of Park Seung-woo.

Since Junyoung has also registered Orc as the territorial language, the Awakened can freely converse with the Orcs.

Same with Park Seung-woo.

“Yeah! It’s free, handsome Orc! Try it and if it doesn’t taste good, don’t pay!”

“good!”

The orc grinned and shoved an egg loaf into his mouth.

An orc with blue eyes like a sapphire.

It was a very unusual orc.

It seems to be exuding a mysterious energy.

Such an orc was eating egg bread with his mouth clenched quickly.

Looking at his face, it was evident that he was incredibly delicious.

“how is it? Is it delicious?”

“Of course it’s delicious… No, it’s not tasty. This is the first time in the world that bread is so tasteless.”

Oak peeled the shichimi.

Then Park Seung-woo glared at the Orc as if displeased.

It is clear that it was delicious just by looking at it.

“Isn’t it really tasty?”

“Of course. It really doesn’t taste that bad. But if you try one more, I think it will taste better.”

Then, he quickly picked up another piece of bread placed in front of Seung-woo Park and ate it.

filth filth.

Park Seung-woo looked at him.

“How about this time?”

“It’s not tasty either. I just lost my appetite.”

Park Seung-woo suppressed his anger.

In general, the orcs are angry and say they are delicious even if they don’t taste good, but now the orcs in front of it are showing the climax of silliness.

‘Let’s be patient. Be patient.’

I thought I wanted this blue-eyed orc to float high and smash it on the floor, but I didn’t want to start a scandal with just two egg buns.

Lavra also tapped Park Seung-woo on the shoulder and said.

“it’s okay. I guess I just said it was tasteless because it didn’t taste good. In the future, I will try to make bread with more sincerity.”

“No, the bread he made is really delicious.”

“Thank you for saying that.”

At first, Park Seung-woo called Lavra uncle, but Lavra told him to just call him hyung.

“Yep, don’t just work and eat one too.”

“Hey! Thank you, Lavra.”

At that time, an orc hurriedly approached and handed a coin to Park Seung-woo.

“This is the price of the egg bread that he just ate. Please understand that he was just joking.”

[I got 10 coins.]

“Is it 1 coin?”

Seeing the orc disappeared after paying 10 times the price, Park Seung-woo tilted his head.

But when I look again, the appearances of those orcs just before are disappearing from place to place.

‘Where did you go? Surely you were in front?’

Anyway, that’s weird.

“Only two egg buns here, please.”

Meanwhile, a beautiful female elf approached and said,

Park Seung-woo exclaimed vigorously.

“Yes! It’s 1 coin. Elf noona! Bon appetite!”

Park Seung-woo started selling egg bread with excitement again.

***

“Hey, protecting Hariek-sama’s body over there…….”

When the small Orc spoke with a look of indifference, the blue-eyed Orc smiled.

“The egg bread is quite tasty.”

“Then are you telling the truth?”

“Wouldn’t that make it more delicious? That egg-looking bastard hasn’t really shown his skills yet.”

“What if I eat it for free because it doesn’t taste good?”

self. self.

The appearance of the two shouting like that soon changed.

A man with seven colors and blue eyes and a woman with four colors of wings.

Among them, the woman with the wings of contemplation is none other than the Elyos god (●●●●) Aroel.

She quickly turned her head and looked to one side of her.

Junyoung was standing there.

He looked at Aroel with a displeased expression.

I’m not at all pleased with the gods who come so suddenly even though I haven’t been invited.

“What is going on here?”

“I am sorry for coming to play without permission. Because Hariek-sama wanted to visit.”

For a moment, Hariek looked at Junyoung.

“I’m sorry for making a fuss. Still, I am curious to hear that you have heard of evil gods and good gods.”

A blue light shone like sunlight in his eyes as he spoke.

“I’m just here to talk for a while, so don’t be nervous.”

‘Seven stars?’

Junyoung’s eyes widened.

He didn’t see well.

Elyos god (●●●●●●●●) Hariek.

He was a whopping 7 star god.
