Chapter 194: You Are Divine

~13 min read 2,436 words

【Nun's Foot Wrap (Blue)】

【Divine +3 / Charm +2 / Dodge +5】

【Passive Skill: Divine】

【This foot wrap is Divine. When worn on your body, it can automatically dispel some Evil creatures; at the same time, your resistance to most negative effects is +20%.】

【Passive Skill: Enchantment?】

【When you are wearing the 【Nun's Foot Wrap】 and expose your feet, the vast majority of creatures will be attracted to your feet.

During this period, if you take off the 【Nun's Foot Wrap】, the creatures' attention will be passively transferred to the equipped 【Nun's Foot Wrap】 for a duration of 2 hours.】

【The only trophy obtained by the Evil Goblins after ambushing a geological survey team. It is said that they almost came to blows to snatch this foot wrap at the time, but fortunately, the only rational Goblin Brave stopped the riot in time.

After the riot, this item, having lost all its charm, was casually stuffed into the Goblins' loot and treated as a rag, never to be paid attention to again. Oh, by the way, I advise you not to wear it on your head as an eye mask.】

"Who, who would wear this on their head as an eye mask!"

Wouldn't that make it impossible to see the road? It should be used as a face mask, tied over the mouth; that is the most correct way to use it!

*Cough cough*, just kidding. She never thought of that at all.

"Doesn't feel like it has much use."

Taking the 【Nun's Foot Wrap】, which looked like a mere rag, out of the box, Yun Mu said.

Although it is a piece of Blue-quality equipment, the effect... aside from the 【Divine】 skill which is the same as the 【Silver Wrist】 and can increase negative resistance, she really couldn't think of any use for the other passive skill.

Uh... perhaps it could distract the enemy's attention and allow her to gain an advantage in battle?

Or, like the previous owner of this foot wrap, use it as bait to help herself escape? No matter which one, thinking about it carefully makes it feel so subtle... "Let's equip it and try it out first." She thought, inexplicably blushing a little.

Anyway, she already has a wrist guard with the Divine attribute on her body, so having another foot wrap with the Divine attribute isn't impossible.

If it feels uncomfortable, then she can just take it off in time.

Anyway, trying it out won't waste much time. The only problem is... casually sending Dabai and the Scarlet Knight back to the Game Panel, Yun Mu found a place nearby to sit down.

She gently slipped off the Quiet Boots on her legs, revealing a fair, bare foot.

How is this thing supposed to be worn? Looking at the rag—no, the 【Nun's Foot Wrap】—in her hand, Yun Mu fell into deep thought.

Just wrap it around like this, then tie a knot... "..."

How are you supposed to wrap one piece of cloth around two feet at the same time, you jerk!

Just as Yun Mu was wondering if it counts as a successful equip if it can only be equipped on one foot, the notification sound of the Game System suddenly came into her mind.

【You have equipped 【Nun's Foot Wrap】, your Divine attribute +3.】 【Your Definition has changed from 【Evil】 to 【Divine】】 【You have unlocked a new attribute: 【Definition】】 【【Definition】 refers to your specific positioning in the current world, which will affect the judgment of some skills, and different definitions will also determine your position in the eyes of some creatures and gods.

Please always pay attention to and observe your Definition attribute; mutually hostile or even conflicting definitions often lead to unimaginable consequences.】 【Your current Definition is: Divine】 【Although you are a Profane person who has fallen into the Bloodline and once wandered the streets stealing others' items to survive, you are Divine.】

"The last sentence could have been left out," Yun Mu complained with some dissatisfaction.

She clicked on the character panel and saw at a glance that, after the original character name, in addition to the title, there was an extra suffix called 【Divine】.

If you understand positioning simply, it's like a faction attribute.

People with an Evil definition will be repelled by holy light and take higher Divine attribute damage, and conversely, when releasing Evil skills, they can obtain higher skill bonuses.

The Game System had already displayed similar prompts on the panel the day she became a Bloodline.

Besides that, there was also the conversation with Lucy when she obtained the Silver Wrist... It's just that she didn't expect that the +3 Divine attribute of the 【Nun's Foot Wrap】 was actually used this way.

Then what would happen if she took off the 【Nun's Foot Wrap】 right now?

Would the Definition change on the spot from 【Divine】 to 【Evil】?

She was very curious!

Since she was curious, she would experiment and see!

Yun Mu gave a light tug, and the Nun's Foot Wrap was pulled off her left foot.

【Your Divine attribute -3, your Definition has changed from 【Divine】 to 【Evil】】 It really works? She raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Doesn't this mean that in the future, if she wants to be Divine, she can be Divine, and if she wants to be Evil, she can be Evil?

No, it shouldn't be that simple.

After all, this foot wrap can only unilaterally increase the Divine attribute. If she herself becomes the Divine definition, she naturally wouldn't be able to use the foot wrap to change back to the Evil definition.

And if her Evil attribute is too high, the Nun's Foot Wrap only adding three points of Divine attribute wouldn't be of much use.

Looking at it this way, it seems her current definition just happens to be stuck in a rather awkward position where she can use this item to switch at will.

It is obviously unrealistic to replicate such an operation in the future.

Unless she can obtain more equipment like the Nun's Foot Wrap that can increase the Definition attribute.

"Let's just use the Divine definition for now."

Yun Mu thought this, wrapped the Nun's Foot Wrap around her left foot again, and then put the Quiet Boots back on.

It feels okay; after all, it's just a piece of cloth, it doesn't affect her movement at all.

Even because of the +5 Dodge effect, her body feels more agile! I am the agile... kitty in the mountains~ Ahe.

Summoning Dabai and the Scarlet Knight back out, Yun Mu led her three teammates, as well as the Cat God, and continued to head toward the depths of the Dungeon.

【Suiji Shijian】

【Forest Altar】

The road on Yun Mu's left was shrouded in a familiar mist, making it impossible to see what was there at all.

And on her right, she could clearly see a large altar made entirely of polished rock, with many small sacrificial platforms built on it with wood.

"Hmm."

Both sides are events where the specific effects are completely unknown; looking at it this way, it doesn't matter which side she chooses, right?

After pondering for a moment, she decided to walk toward the 【Forest Altar】.

After all, you can encounter anything with a Suiji Shijian; by comparison, the Forest Altar here looks safer, and it doesn't seem to have any danger.

And after she made her choice, the road on the left, along with the mist, dissipated like foam as if it had never existed.

【You arrive before the 【Forest Altar】, looking at the many small altars above the altar, you decide.】【1. Steal the offerings. (Entire team's HP recovers 25%, Forest Soul favor -5)】【2. Offer a tribute. (Consumes 500 Gold Coin, entire team damage +10%, critical hit +5%, Forest Soul favor +5)】【3. Just Prayer. (Entire team's HP recovers 10%, entire team damage +5%, critical hit +1%, Forest Soul favor +1)】 Does this even need thinking?

Without the slightest hesitation, Yun Mu chose option 3, just Prayer.

Both provide buffs, but option 2 costs five hundred Gold Coin.

Compared to that, option 3 is completely free, and it can also recover 10% of the entire team's HP; it just has 5% less damage buff, 4% less critical hit, and 4 points less Forest Soul favor.

The cost-effectiveness between the two is simply incomparable, right?

If one isn't truly lacking damage, there is absolutely no need to spend an extra five hundred Gold Coin to choose option 2. Of course, that is unless one wants to grind that Forest Soul's favor.

【You choose to Prayer before the Forest Priest, your entire team's HP recovers 10%, and you gain the Forest Soul's simple blessing.】 After a brief Prayer, a wisp of pale green light descended from the sky, enveloping Yun Mu and the others.

"That's it?"

After the entire team's buff application ended, Yun Mu looked at the altar, which no longer had any movement, and asked.

After she waited for half a minute, seeing that the Game Panel indeed had no further information to add, and no Goblin squad had popped out from somewhere to initiate a duel with her.

She could only confirm that the event in this area was indeed just this much.

Or perhaps, to trigger the potential follow-up events of the Forest Altar, one needs to grind the Forest Soul's favor?

Following the general tropes, that should be the case.

It is a pity that she had already chosen an option and could not repeatedly reload a save like in a Video Game to try every option.

Shaking her head, Yun Mu led her teammates to continue forward, but before long, new text appeared before her.

【Elite Challenge lv20 (Elite)】

"We've reached the Elite level already?" Yun Mu said with some surprise.

She felt as though she hadn't spent much time in the Dungeon, never expecting to encounter an Elite Challenge so quickly.

And encountering an Elite Challenge means she is not far from the Leader BOSS's location; nothing more to say, everyone's status is at max, start right away! 【Battle Start!】

【You have encountered enemies—【Goblin Sword and Shield Soldier lv17 (Elite)】 【Goblin Cannon lv25 (Elite)】 【Goblin Igniter lv15 (Elite)】 【Goblin Musketeer lv18 (Elite)】】 Passing through the invisible barrier, Yun Mu arrived in the Elite Challenge area and immediately engaged in battle with the Goblins.

But what she didn't expect was that the Elite monster in the Elite Challenge wasn't a Goblin, but a large cannon! And behind this large cannon was a short-statured ignition Goblin holding a lit torch.

【Goblin Cannon lv25 (Elite) Max HP: 92 Race:??? Attack 50, Spell Strength 8, Defense 40, Resilience???, Dodge 0, Speed 10, Precision Correction 45, Critical Hit 21% Trait: Iron Body (Resilience attribute cannot be displayed), Shoddy Craftsmanship (The production quality is poor, there is a possibility of firing a dud or a barrel explosion), Elite.

Skills: 188mm Justice, Summon Goblin Igniter.】【Goblin Igniter lv15 (Elite) Max HP: 50 Attack 3, Spell Strength 2, Defense 18, Resilience 5, Dodge 35, Speed 15, Precision Correction 10, Critical Hit 1% Omitted

Skills: Torch Swing, Ignite.】 "188mm!?"

With such a large caliber, if she were hit by one shot, she would definitely die, right? Looking at the cannon caliber displayed in the Goblin Cannon's panel skills, Yun Mu suddenly thought nervously.

【Current Turn Number · 1】

【Player Yun Mu acts first!】

Luck is not bad.

The Goblin Musketeer's trait 【Fast Shooter】 did not trigger.

Then Yun Mu turned her gaze back to the Goblin Cannon at the second position.

Hmm... She absolutely cannot let that cannon fire!

Although that is what she said, it is simply impossible to kill that Goblin Cannon within one turn.

After all, that thing is a steel construct with a full 92 HP and 40 Defense; even if it just stood there and let Yun Mu hit it, it would take her a full two turns to kill it.

Ah, although two turns isn't much.

But!

It needs to be noted that the Goblin Igniter's speed is as high as 15 points, exactly 1 speed higher than Lucy and the Scarlet Knight.

Which means, if she fails to finish off the opponent after Yun Mu and Dabai's turns end.

Then it will directly be the Goblin Igniter's turn to act.

This is something Yun Mu absolutely does not want to see.

Therefore, the target can only be placed on the Goblin Igniter responsible for ignition.

50 HP, 18 Defense... Sure enough, compared to forcing a kill on the Goblin Cannon, bullying the Goblin Igniter is easier.

The only problem is, if she pours all her damage into the Goblin Igniter, then who will be responsible for killing the Goblin Cannon?

That thing is a monster with a full forty points of defense, two points higher than the Scarlet Knight in full plate armor; it's absurd.

It can definitely be damaged, it's just the efficiency... Forget it, don't talk about efficiency, as long as it can be cleared.

After calculating slightly, with the intention of reducing her own prison time, Yun Mu pressed her hand lightly onto the 【Apostle of Joy's Mask】 on her face.

【Burning Projectile!】

Familiar fireworks sprayed out from the muzzle behind her, and the next second, a large amount of fireworks exploded from under the enemies' feet!

【-56!】

Goblin Sword and Shield Soldier died.

【-24】

Goblin Cannon remained unmoved, remaining HP 68 points.

【-46!】 【Burning Resistance!】

【-59!】

Goblin Musketeer died, while the Goblin Igniter still had 4 HP left.

Originally, in her expectations, the remaining HP should have been left to the 【Burning】 status.

She just didn't expect the opponent to resist it.

Fortunately, Dabai's speed is 16 points, exactly 1 speed faster than the Goblin Igniter.

As long as Dabai kills it, it will be fine.

"Dabai, use skill, Pounce!" Yun Mu ordered.

Originally, she wanted to let Dabai use the skill, Claw Swipe.

It is a pity that the attack range of the Claw Swipe skill is only 2, so it cannot reach the Goblin Igniter at a distance of 3.

Thus, she could only turn to have Dabai use the Pounce skill.

"Roar!"

Dabai let out an angry roar, his body instantly advancing one unit as he slammed fiercely toward the Goblin Igniter.

【Dodge!】

"Huh?"

The expression on Yun Mu's face froze instantly.

PS: Since it is an elite monster after all, it still needs to leave some deep impression on Miss Yun.

Although I had envisioned having this cannon explode once, I decided to forget about it after thinking it over.
