Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 169 Chapter 168-Trust (2nd update, Cheer me with Power Stones!)

This was the first time John had seen a piece of equipment exclusive to the Godslayer class on the Godslayer Continent.

When he left the Godslayer Temple, he didn't take anything with him, save for a tattered black cloak.

Because that unassuming black cloak was the only exclusive equipment for the Godslayer class:

[Godslayer Cloak (Divine Equipment): It started as a regular cloak, but after being soaked in the blood of countless gods, it evolved into the most terrifying piece of equipment in the world, instilling fear in all deities...]

[Exclusive Class: Godslayer]

[Level Requirement: None]

[Stats: +5000 Defense, +2000 Speed, +1500 Attack, +50% Armor Penetration, +30% Critical Strike...]

[Additional Skill 1: Invisibility (Divine Skill)...]

[Additional Skill 2: Devour All (Divine Skill)...] ...

Perhaps no one could guess just how incredible the stats of this seemingly worn-out black cloak truly were.

The base stat bonuses alone were unmatched by any other piece of equipment.

Even a set of legendary weapons and gear couldn't offer as many stat bonuses as this single cloak...

Now, John had finally come across a second piece of Godslayer-exclusive equipment.

He gently drummed his fingers on the table, staring at the Asura Mask before him, lost in deep thought.

From the properties of the Asura Mask, it was clear that there had been other Godslayers before him, like the legendary figure "Asura" mentioned in the mask's properties who seemed to have the same class as himself.

But strangely, John had never heard any tales or legends about the Godslayer class.

He didn't know whether it was the lofty gods intentionally concealing it or some other reasons.

As for the fate of those predecessors of his who shared his class, John had no clue. But he imagined their endings probably weren't too pleasant.

After all, the Godslayer class was inherently designed to slay gods.

The lofty gods would never allow a Godslayer to live among mortals.

If discovered, they would certainly try to obliterate them with the full force of their divine powers.

Even if a Godslayer's strength could suppress any individual god, facing a group assault would still be difficult.

Thinking of this, a chill ran down John's spine.

Fortunately, the attention of all gods was currently diverted by other events, and they hadn't paid much attention to the Godslayer Continent.

Otherwise, he might have been besieged by countless gods the moment he left the Godslayer Temple.

He knew he had to continue enhancing his strength...

He had a long way to go...

While John was deep in thought, Master Reo sat quietly in his seat without any interruption.

However, his gaze was intently fixed on John, knowing that this mysterious young man must have discovered some secret from the strange mask.

Master Reo had always been curious about this mask.

All of his identification methods were unable to find any information about it.

It left him as powerless as when he faced the "Fias' tooth"...

John came back to his senses and gave Master Reo an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, I spaced out a bit..."

Master Reo shook his head, his smile warm and forgiving. "No worries, I suspect Mr. Galewind stumbled upon something. Would you mind sharing?"

John responded with a light chuckle, nonchalantly saying, "Actually, it's nothing special. This mask just reminds me of an old friend who always wore something similar..."

John did not disclose the truth to Master Reo.

His Godslayer class was his deepest secret.

Not even his closest associates knew, so he certainly wouldn't tell Master Reo.

John paused, then said with a laugh, "What's the asking price for this mask? I'd like to purchase it."

Seeing John unwilling to elaborate, Master Reo astutely dropped the inquiry.

When John asked about the price, Master Reo fell silent.

John furrowed his brows, pressing further, "Is there a problem? Is the seller asking too much?"

Master Reo shook his head, forcing a smile.

"The price isn't high, just a few thousand gold coins. But the consignor set an additional condition. Anyone wanting to buy the mask must exchange an item for it."

"What item?"

John's brows furrowed further.

He knew that barter deals could be the most troublesome.

Master Reo's bitter smile deepened. "They want...Cloud Sea Ore. The seller wants to exchange it for two pieces of Cloud Sea Ore."

"What?" John almost thought he had misheard.

If he recalled correctly, the high difficulty quest he just accepted from the Mercenary Hall had five pieces of Cloud Sea Ore as a reward.

Was such a coincidence even possible?

Seeing John speechless, Master Reo assumed he was troubled, so he began explaining.

"There's really no other way. The consignor, a powerful adventurer, found the mask in an ancient relic."

John interrupted, "It's okay, I agree to exchange two pieces of Cloud Sea Ore."

Master Reo was stunned, his face freezing despite his vast experience.

"Are you...sure you want to exchange the Cloud Sea Ore? It's precious. I've been at this auction house for years, and I haven't even seen one piece..."

John nonchalantly nodded, chuckling, "I'm sure. Just keep the mask safe. I'll bring the Cloud Sea Ore in three days."

After a pause and some hesitation, Master Reo pushed the mask back towards John.

"Since you say so, Mr. Galewind, take this mask now. The seal has been broken, and it's actually troublesome to keep it in the auction house."

John, a mysterious smile curving his lips, teased, "Aren't you afraid I'll just take the mask and run?"

Master Reo laughed heartily, expressing his confidence. "Mr. Galewind, you're one of our most valued customers. I trust you..."

John just smiled and without any further ceremony, he fit the mask onto his face.

A low humming noise echoed as the mask melded with John's face.

The whole space seemed to vibrate subtly, an invisible force spreading out, then disappearing quickly.

[System Notification: You have equipped Asura Mask...]

John looked up at Master Reo nonchalantly.

Master Reo seemed to have no perception of the energy fluctuation in the room.

Seeing John casually put on such a strange mask, Master Reo was initially a bit worried.

However, seeing no reaction after the mask was worn, he felt relieved.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Master Reo, John stood up, ready to leave.

"I'll leave the consignment of the six daggers to you. If there are any issues, contact me immediately."

Master Reo, with a light laugh and stroking his long beard, nodded in acknowledgment.

Watching John leave the auction house, Master Reo turned to Isabella and chuckled, "Silly girl, you truly are a lucky charm for our auction house..."

As soon as John stepped out of the Dawn Breeze Auction House, his communication channel suddenly rang.

It was a communication request from Emma.

As soon as the communication channel was connected, there was a loud noise coming from the other side.

John raised an eyebrow in surprise. Where did that girl run off to?

Emma's clear and pleasant voice came through, "Johnny, are you back in Silverglow yet?"

John answered softly, "I'm back, I'm taking care of some business right now."

Emma responded quite obediently, "Alright then, I'm going to level up with White Feather."

John teased her, "Aren't you worried that I might encounter danger?"

Emma snorted proudly, "Danger? No way, Johnny is the strongest, the only ones in danger are those idiots who oppose you."

John couldn't help but smile.

From the other side, Emma continued, "I have to work hard too, aiming to equip the gear Johnny gave me as soon as possible."

John's brow furrowed slightly. He casually asked, "Are you with White Feather now? Just the two of you?"

Emma answered cheerfully, "No, White Feather has gathered her companions from Silver Church. We've formed a Mercenary Guild and are preparing to fight monsters to level up..."

John went silent.

He was somewhat confident in White Feather, but not so much in the other players from Silver Church.

If that silly girl Emma revealed the "Woodmist Warchant" in public, it could very well stir up other players' covetous hearts.

That is a unique legendary staff with sky-high attributes. It's hard for any player to resist such temptation.
