Chapter 218- Tutorial 49th Floor (4) (Part 1)
[Stage mission updated.]
-You have achieved incredible results in a small time frame.
You’ve eliminated a considerable amount of infectors spread across the planet.
As if you were unsatisfied, you’ve also eliminated the origin monster that started to take root on the planet.
This legendary feat will be passed down for thousands of years.
As the Apostle of Hope, you are the warrior who saved the planet from its catastrophe, but there is one last task you must accomplish for the survivors.
Although the origin monster has been eliminated, there are still many monsters roaming the land on the planet.
Help the remaining intellectual lives rebuild their homes on this ruined land.
[Clear condition]
– Maintain a reliability of 40 or above 20.
– Protect the survivors until they have laid a solid foundation for their new homes.
Things have just gone south.
As I scratch my head, I notice a boy staring at me in a panic.
“Hey… what’s going on?”
“No, nothing.”
Yes. Damn it.
As Ahbooboo said, the planet’s ecosystem is on the verge of extinction.
Due to the contamination caused by the poison that I mixed with Zit Pop.
Having to build new homes in this situation was unexpected.
And I have to protect them.
That’s ridiculously difficult.
It would take at least a few days for the poison to dissipate.
It’s uncertain how many months or years for it to be completely diluted if the gas has spread to the entire planet.
Even if it’s diluted, Ahbooboo said that it is capable of causing an epidemic plague.
It will take a long time to dilute the gas to a harmless degree.
Putting aside whether it’s even possible to dilute it to a harmless degree.
The survivors need me to protect them until they build the new homes instead of collecting supplies or food, so it seems that they don’t need my assistance to build homes.
Survivors should be knowledgeable and skilled enough to build new homes, so protecting the survivors from leftover infectors who would’ve attacked them is the theme of the stage.
As the Apostle of Hope, I would earn additional points if I can lead them to become faithful believers.
Therefore, the stage’s focus is to lead the unusually incompetent survivors to start their new life on their own initiative.
This is really troublesome.
There seems to be no solutions.
I can’t wait to death for the planet to be cleansed.
[The God of Nature looks at someone and gloats.]
Ugh, the annoying person, he really is.
That god most fervent every time I use Zit Pop.
I don’t know if it’s because nature was destroyed or because I had attacked Spirit King.
Probably both.
“Go in.”
“Ah? Ah yes, okay.”
I pondered as I saw the boy go back inside the building.
The only option is to purposely fail and try again.
I collect my thoughts as I walk through the Holy Land.
After planning my next challenge, I move to the bridge to reclaim Ahbooboo.
[Warrior! I knew you would eventually come out. Huhuhu, were you bored without me Warrior?]
“Bored”, what bullshit.
I was much better alone.
“Ahbooboo.”
[Yes, warrior.]
“Things got messy. We’ll have to fail this time.”
[Oh, yeah. Um… shall I undo the barrier?]
I nod to Ahbooboo’s words.
Ahbooboo immediately releases his barrier.
The transparent holy wall guarding us from the outside air disappears.
Soon the poisonous fog will roll into the Holy Land.
As a result, the survivors will instantly perish, failing the stage mission.
Although it’s a pity to overturn the game when we nearly reach the end, I can’t progress with things this messy.
[Uh?]
“Huh?”
As I watch the smoke pour into the Holy Land, a new curtain of the divine power surrounded the Holy Land.
I thought Ahbooboo might have reapplied the barrier, but seeing his flustered state rendered that guess invalid.
[The God of Hope intervenes in his Holy Land.]
[Clear condition has been met.]
[The God of Nature is panicked.]
With the sudden news, my body was forcibly moved.
I was moved into darkness.
I’m used to it because I’ve experienced it several times.
This means I was moved to a God Temple.
I try to scan my surroundings.
The darkness here is different from the nihility I experienced at the temple of the God of Slow.
It’s only darkness without light.
Thanks to my night vision, I can still dimly see my hands.
There is nothing around me.
Only the floor.
This kind of temple may be common.
This is the best god temple I’ve visited since stage 40.
Because it’s just dark and empty.
No, it’s not empty.
I feel another existence.
It’s very weak, like a fruit fly flying alone in the dark.
[Fruit fly? Are you talking about me?]
“Are you the God of Hope?”
[Yes.]
My metaphor may have been too offensive causing a deduction of points.
[Don’t worry. I’m in a good mood thanks to you.]
“Do you like fruit flies?”
[No…That’s not the reason.]
I can hear a panic in God’s voice.
So I first apologise.
But I think he might really like fruit flies.
The Gods I’ve met before all exude a strong presence.
But now the sense of existence of the God of Hope is so low that it reminds me of flying insects.
[Of course. If gives people a strong and huge feeling, it can not be called hope.]
“I see.”
[Do you truly understand?]
Actually, I don’t.
I just wanted to keep the conversation going.
“I want to ask you something.”
[Oh, my ideas and actions are consistent. What is it? Tell me.]
“I want to know how stage was cleared.”
The God of Hope laughed at my question.
Laughter sounds light, as if it was tickling around my ear.
When the laughter stops, the God of Hope asks.
[It’s all over, is it necessary to know? ]
“I want to know.”
[I set up a barrier to protect the Holy Land and subordinated the survivors. The result is the same as if you’ve protected them while they built their homes, therefore satisfying the clear condition.]
