Chapter 1084 A solution for Michael's problem
When Pink mentioned the possibility of having a way to kill the gods, Michael was taken aback. On Earth, Pink had been an exceptionally skilled helper, handling research and aiding him in planning assassinations to perfection. The prospect of reuniting with her and strategizing on this grand scale filled Michael with thrilling excitement.
"What do you mean?" Michael inquired eagerly.
Pink began to explain, "The Library of Durran is one of the oldest libraries in this world. The orcs cherish it even more than their own lives. Before I left the kingdom, I heard that the orcs were dead-set on acquiring a new book for their collection. They were taking it incredibly seriously, even delving into their coffers."
Cain voiced his skepticism, asking, "Do you truly believe this book might hold knowledge about killing a god? How can you be so certain?"
Pink remained focused on the matter at hand, not allowing the surreal sight of a talking three-headed serpent to distract her. "This particular book was authored by an angel of the Goddess of Wisdom, Seshat. I managed to gather that it contains information that Dagon, the fallen god and ruler of hell, is actively seeking. One of the reasons Dagon was banished from the realm of gods was his relentless quest to discover a way to kill the gods. At least, that's what I've gathered from the books and what the orcs shared."
Sarba interjected, her tone light-hearted, "You seem to have acquired quite a bit of confidential information. How did you than they should."
manage that unless you're a high-ranking orc within the kingdom?"
With a chuckle, Pink replied, "Between you and me, I'm considered quite the looker among the orcs. They tend to share more with me than they should."
Michael sought clarification, "The last I heard, Dagon couldn't enter this world, right?"
Pink nodded and continued, "That's correct, but his followers are still here, hiding in the shadows, forming cults, and carrying on their usual practices. If there's anything in that book related to what their god, Dagon, is searching for, you can bet they'll be on the hunt for it. I was fortunate to learn about the reappearance of this book."
"Securing that book is indeed a priority, but first, I must find a way to evade the Pantheon's executioner," Michael sighed, a sense of urgency in his voice.
Pink shared her astonishment, saying, "It's truly mind-boggling, isn't it? We were humans one moment on Earth, and the next, we've become something entirely different. I've transformed into an orc, and you've become a literal god. It still feels like a dream to me."
Michael reflected, "Life is full of mysteries. As much as I cherish our reunion, my immediate concern is finding a way to outsmart the angels and figuring out how to win against them. Even if I manage to defeat the angel I encountered, the Pantheon can and will dispatch someone even stronger. This won't end until I become powerful enough."
Curious, Pink inquired, "What level of god are you right now?"
"Level two, a demi-god," Michael replied, prompting Pink to thoughtfully stroke her chin.
"So, any angel serving a god above level two and beyond the second cultivation stage can absorb their god's sliver of grace and overpower you," Pink explained.
Michael nodded, acknowledging the challenge. "I'm aware of that. But raising my godhood level isn't easy or quick. I need alternative ways to take down the angels."
Pink offered a suggestion, "You could cultivate in this world and become a cultivator. This would enable you to face other cultivators and angels without exposing your godly powers, which is how the Pantheon can track you."
Ayag interjected, voicing a concern, "Yet, if an angel consumes a sliver of grace, they temporarily gain godly powers. In such cases, cultivation won't do shit,."
"This won't be a cakewalk. But that's precisely what makes this challenge so intriguing," Pink stated with excitement.
"Right now, your focus should be on cultivation, keeping a low profile, and only employing your godly powers when absolutely necessary. While we lie low, we'll search for the book and any information on how to kill a god. Then, we'll assassinate them, much like our old days on Earth. Once a god is eliminated, I assume the angels will lose their power source. Moreover, nobody has a clear understanding of what happens when a god dies. Some gods disappeared in ancient times, and others took their place. But I've read nothing about the actual act of killing a god. That's what makes the book authored by Seshat's angel so invaluable," Pink concluded with a grave tone.
"System, how much badass points i have?" Michale asked the system.
[Fifteen million points. This is not suffeicent amount of points to survie in this world. So the system recommends the host finding new ways to earn more points]
"Don't worry about the executioner finding you here. This is an abandoned safehouse of Agra worshippers. It's equipped with all sorts of runes to prevent other angels and the Pantheon from sensing the Agra worshippers who used to reside here, or at least who lived here," Pink reassured Michael. Finally, he heard some reassuring news.
Curious, Ayag inquired, "What happened to them?"
Pink explained, "According to the texts I used to locate this place, the Agra worshippers here tangled with some rogue cultivators who proved to be too powerful. They wiped out the Agra worshippers living here. Over time, everyone forgot about this place. But it serves as a rather shabby base of operations. It's better than nothing."
