Chapter 932

Athenae’s Supreme, Minhyuk, was the focus of everyone’s attention. The slightest change in his being, like the parting of his hair, was enough to make an issue to the world.

Even if there were the tiniest change in his accessory, armor, or sword, the experts would already be busy analyzing and discussing what kind of equipment it was and what it could do. Of course, the players were waiting and expecting such an analysis.

This was also why the Transcendental’s Armor, which debuted during Minhyuk’s fight against the Peiro Allied Nations, created a huge issue and was said to have caused balance collapse.

Why? The experts had analyzed that Minhyuk would not be able to receive much damage from the attacks sent his way because his Transcendental’s Armor had high defensive power and the ability to self-regenerate. Not only that, even though it was full plate armor, a set known for its heaviness, he could move more freely and swiftly than before.

No armor set that is better and more amazing than this exists!

Everyone agreed with the words of one of the world-famous experts.

But Minhyuk was no fool. He knew the Transcendental Armor would beca huge issue once exposed to the masses. Disclosing an artifact’s information would also becone’s weakness. That was why he hid the armor’s ability as much as possible.

Of course, this problem also applied to the gods. The gods were unaware that Minhyuk had a Transcendental-ranked artifact in his possession and that this Transcendental-ranked artifact was two armors in one.

Minhyuk had quickly equipped his Black Dragon Armor when he saw the God of Magic turn toward him and send a barrage of attacks his way.

[You have equipped the Black Dragon Armor!]

[You can only equip this armor for five minutes!]

Even his magical defensive power would quadruple, and a different set of skills would be available to him compared to when he had the Transcendental’s Armor equipped.

These skills were none other than The Unapproachable One and Transcendence.

•There is an 8% chance of triggering this skill when the enemy attacks.

•The skill will last for three seconds upon activation.

•Upon activation, your evasion rate will increase by five times.

•The skill won’t be activated for one minute of the initial triggering.

Of course, there was one very important thing that Minhyuk could not forget. The Transcendental’s Armor was a set artifact, and it could increase his defensive power by 1,100 just by being equipped. He should also highlight the fact that the Black Dragon Armor had this amazing effect: it quadrupled his magical defensive power.

Bang, bang, bang–!

Booooooooooooom–!

The fierce and heavy bombing of magical attacks forced a groan out of Minhyuk’s mouth.

‘Amazing.’

As expected of the God of Magic, Ali was utterly incomparable to him. Of course, even if Minhyuk’s defensive power had increased by leaps and bounds, he still would be hit hard by the attack.

[Your HP has dropped below 85%!]

[Your HP has dropped below 80%!]

[...HP...below 77%...]

Immediately after that, the God of Archery’s arrows squeezed through the explosion and aimed for Minhyuk’s body.

[The Unapproachable One.]

[Your Evasion Rate will increase by 5x for three seconds.]

[This cannot be triggered again for one minute.]

The evasion rate was the stat that helped the person avoid attacks that could be avoided, escaped, or missed, even if the attack should have hit them.

Several arrows boasting tremendous accuracy surprisingly passed by Minhyuk and left him unscathed. Even the magic that the God of Magic had fallen right beside him, unable to exert any of its power on its intended target.

At the stime, another set of notifications rang in Minhyuk’s ears.

[You have accumulated Transcendence!]

[The system recognizes the attacker as a strong man!]

[You have accumulated Transcendence!]

[The system...the attacker...!]

[...Transcendence!]

[...Transcendence!]

Minhyuk’s power of Transcendence was quickly being filled up.

‘Is it this easy? Is accumulating Transcendence this easy?’

He could not help but wonder. After all, his Transcendence had jumped fiercely and had now exceeded 43%. But as he continued to receive the baptism of attacks, Minhyuk realized something.

‘The hundreds of sword lights sent by the Divine Army troops only helpedincrease my Transcendence by around 4%.’

Transcendence was a skill that could only be triggered once its accumulation rate had reached 20%, and this accumulation rate would be reset once every minute. Simply put, no matter what kind of attacks the Divine Army would unleash upon Minhyuk in one minute, it would be tough for these attacks to help him trigger Transcendence.

Considering that the average level of the Divine Army's troops was slightly higher than the average level of the knights of the Luvien Empire, Minhyuk concluded that it was extremely difficult to meet the Transcendence’s triggering condition. But with the gods’ intense attacks, the skill’s triggering condition was easily met. It surpassed his expectations.

[...Transcendence!]

[...Transcendence!]

The damage dealt to him allowed him to constantly accumulate his Transcendence, but it also shaved off 65% of his total HP.

Vwoooooooong–!

A few moments after the attacks subsided, a strong wind blew and scattered the thick dust cloud covering him.

[You have accumulated a total of 61% of Transcendence!]

“Transcendence,” Minhyuk murmured as a strong power surged through his veins. Black wisps of energy, a feature very much in line with the nBlack Dragon Armor, also appeared and swirled all over his body.

[You have activated Transcendence!]

[You have gone beyond your limits and transcended to another realm!]

[You have gone beyond your limits and transcended to another realm!]

[You have gone beyond your limits...!]

“...?”

Minhyuk was quite puzzled when he heard three of the snotifications ringing in his ears. The results had gone beyond what he had expected.

[The buff effect of the “Spicy Braised Chicken” will not be in effect during the thirty seconds of the Transcendence’s activation!]

[The Transcendence’s buff effects have now been applied!]

[All of your stats have increased by 67%!]

[All of your attack power has increased by 34%!]

[All of your defensive power has increased by 37%!]

[All of your skill levels have increased by +3!]

[Your resistance to abnormal statuses has increased by 50%!]

[Your total HP and MP have increased by 40%!]

[Transcendence will remain in effect for thirty seconds!]

“...!”

Minhyuk was quite shocked. The effects were truly outstanding.

‘It will be hard to achieve an accumulation rate like this again.’

This was only possible because he had received the full brunt of the attack of the gods.

Meanwhile, there was one thing that the gods were wondering about.

“What’s that armor?”

“Did you give that armor to the Food God?”

The God of Magic and the God of Archery were both shocked and appalled when they saw that a normal human being, a human who had not yet beca complete god, was able to deal with and endure their constant attacks. The more shocking part was that the armor on this very shuman’s body was repairing itself.

“No. I don’t know what that armor is either.”

Even the Battle God could not understand what had just happened. He stared at the mysterious and unusual wisps of black energy flowing from the black armor covering Minhyuk’s body.

[Thirty-eight minutes and fifty seconds have passed since the start of the Third Wave!]

The notification rang, awakening everyone from their stupor. There were only one minute and twenty seconds left. However, there was still a 30% gap between Nerva and Minhyuk’s credibility ratings.

The Battle God thought, ‘Whatever that power is, it will be hard for you to overcthis situation.’

Booooooooooom–!

Minhyuk dug his feet into the bone dragon he was standing on and catapulted toward them. The gods were left gawking at the sight. The speed at which Minhyuk was flying was also considered explosive, even for the gods.

“Stop him!!!”

Bang, bang– Bang, bang, bang–!

Another rain of attacks fell on Minhyuk. However, Minhyuk did not stop. He either evaded the attacks or received them with his entire body until he broke out of their attacks. In just an instant, Minhyuk appeared in the vicinity of the gods.

The Battle God tried to step forward and restrain Minhyuk, who was now directly approaching them.

‘What...?’

To his shock, his body could not move. That was when he saw the faint smile on Minhyuk’s face. The Battle God hurriedly looked at the other gods and saw they could not move as well. As he looked around, he saw a mysterious golden rope wrapped tightly around the waist of the God of Magic.

“...!”

Only then did he recall that everyone who ate Minhyuk’s dish had shown tremendous power, except for one man. This man, who had not shown any outstanding performance since earlier, was none other than the God of Fetters.

[God’s Absolute Bondage has restricted the movement of your entire body!]

[God’s Absolute Bondage will restrain your movements for ten seconds!]

The God of Fetters appeared with Golden Mage Ali above the gods. He could not help but shudder when he saw his credibility rating jump to 30% the moment he bound the gods. Then, he tugged the golden rope that bound the gods tightly as hard as he could.

[You have triggered Tug!]

[An irresistible force will force those you have bound to gather together!]

Like fish in the net, the gods were dragged and pulled together. Minhyuk, who had already approached them, shouted, “Ego Chain Sickle!”

There was a power that Minhyuk had never used on purpose earlier. He had been saving it for this moment alone. After all, if he had used that power earlier, the gods would have either stopped or destroyed it.

“Immortal Knight Order!”

Around a dozen soldiers dressed in shabby armor appeared.

“Mass Teleport!” Ali shouted as he teleported the other descendants to surround the gods.

Meanwhile, Death, who had been preparing the summons since earlier, summoned his death knights and sent hundreds of sword lights toward the gods.

[Thirty-nine minutes have passed!]

These people, who had waited for this very moment, surrounded the gods and glared at them. Today, for once in their lives, they were given the chance to attack the gods. It was something that they knew would never happen again, so they were thrilled.

And Minhyuk, who had bectwice as powerful thanks to the power of Transcendence, looked at the Battle God.

“No way...”

The Battle God’s expression screamed, ‘There’s no way that you’re going to kill me.’

Of course, any death incurred during the Succession Ceremony was not real. However, the Battle God and Minhyuk were supposed to be quite close to each other.

“You were the one who attacked first, you know?”

“...”

‘Ah, seems like I won’t be spared.’

“Sword of Absolute Death.”

With the +4 increase in level, the Sword of Absolute Death’s additional attack power had increased significantly. Even the area it could cover had widened considerably. Just like that, lightning bolts fell and struck the gods fiercely.

Crackle, crackle, crackle–!

The God of Shooting, who had been preparing for this skill and refraining from using it since earlier, immediately unleashed his Carnival of Rapid Fire.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang–!

Hundreds of bullets were fired, striking the gods all over their bodies.

“Graaaaaaaaaaa!!!”

The God of Animals also moved, transforming into a gigantic bear and lunging toward the gods. He used his large claws and slapped the gods like crazy.

At that moment, the ropes that bound the gods began to loosen. Of course, the gods realized this too.

[You have fallen into a six-second stunned state!]

But Minhyuk’s lightning strikes have plunged them into a stunned state and left them unable to move again.

[Transcendence has ended!]

Minhyuk’s Transcendence ended immediately after that. But the attacks were not over yet. The Ego Chain Sickle continued to attack and abuse the gods.

“Explosion! Explosion! Explosion! Explosion! Explosion!”

Explosions continuously bloomed from among the gods.

[The Battle God’s Sword’s Credibility Rating is 47%!]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 26%!]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 28%!]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 30%!]

The members of the Immortal Knight Order, realizing the situation they were summoned to, immediately ravaged the gods as they unleashed their Pinnacle Skills upon them.

Vwoooooooong–!

Baaaaaaaaang–!

“Keheuuuuk!”

“Ugh!!!”

“Keuhaaaaaack!!!”

The viewers wondered if they were in a dream when they saw the gods scream and shriek on their screens.

[Thirty-nine minutes and fifty seconds have passed!]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 38%!]

[There are only ten seconds left before the Succession Ceremony ends!]

[10... 9... 8...]

“SuprOverlord’s Technique.”

Crackleeee–!

Blazing black flames erupted from Minhyuk’s sword.

The force that tied the gods was slowly disappearing. They were now gearing up for a counterattack. But before they could do so, the quick-witted Ali immediately gathered the descendants and members of the Immortal Knight Order while Valentino slammed his huge square shield in front of them.

At that moment, the blazing black flames shot out and struck the gods.

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 42%!]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 43%!]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 45%!]

Minhyuk’s face grew ugly when he saw the flames quickly scattered around. However, the scariest part of SuprOverlord Technique’s fire was that it could inflict continuous damage upon his enemies.

[2 seconds.]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating is 48%!]

[1 second.]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating...!]

[The Battle God’s Descendant’s Credibility Rating...!]

[The Succession Ceremony has ended!]

[Your final Credibility Rating will now be determined!]
