Chapter 1668 Devil’s Blessing and Exploring Hell
A magic circle that has an aura that can make anyone become extremely haughty appeared. A magic circle that has the red color appeared on the ground. The magic circle has given the players and the devil NPCs power that they could not have imagined.
[You have been blessed by all of the Seven Original Sins.]
[The blessings will be kept in your body and will only activate once the angels arrive to destroy the Hell Gate.]
A mark on the top of the plyer's left hand suddenly appeared. The mark was seven different crests in small sizzes. Each of the small crests represent the blessing of a devil god. The players marveled at it but also frowned when they read the last notification.
The players thought that they would have that blessing for the next ten days, but they were a bit dismayed when they saw that it would only activate when the angels arrive. The blessing did provide them with some power though as it gave them a small bonus for the mean time. Blessings are basically just divine energy etched into the bodies of others and it would need to be refilled.
Blessings are usually refilled when the being that prays to a god does what their patron god teaches them. It is not just the act of praying that people are given power by the gods but also giving actions to the teachings of their gods. This is what separates the worshippers that are powerful to those that are not.
Adrian for example is the Champion of the Twin Gods. The Twin Gods rule over life and death which is why he is extremely sensitive to matters between life and death. The followers also somewhat get affected by the teachings of their gods which is why they often resemble them.
This is also one of the reasons why beings that worship gods that are distorted would get corrupted as well. This is the basis of the system of faith in Pandemonium which has already been set in stone. Gods are not necessarily only god or bad as they also have biases and their own thoughts.
"Great Warriors! You are free to stay in Hell as that mark would no longer restrict you here." Lucifer stated as all seven of them dispersed since they have done what they need to do.
All of the Seven Original Sins returned to their own locations in Hell. Each of them has a danger zone that they reside in. Since they have given the mark, they could only wait and see what will happen as they only wanted to protect the Hell Gate for the devils that have already passed through. There are also devil players that will be unable to return to Hell if that is the case.
The players could not believe that a simple mark could negate all the sufferings in Hell. The status reduction and the reduced resistances all went back to normal. This meant that the players in Hell could now raid the untouched dungeons in it.
Hell is not like the main world where some guilds have claimed ownership of a dungeon. This meant that every player that goes to Hell will have no need to pay for entrance fees and the like. They could level up freely which is why Hell is very suitable for new players as the dungeons have been controlled by some of the guilds.
Dungeons could be controlled completely but a guild can only control one dungeon at a time. This can be done if an item called the Dungeon Core is dropped by a mutated dungeon boss. If this happens, guilds can set an entrance fee for that dungeon and would passively reap the benefits.
Guilds that control numerous dungeons just have guards stationed in their entrances to collect toll from other players. Usually, the tolls are not high, but some are outright a money grab. There are some guilds that offer protection in the dungeon from player killers though which is why some would rather pay than to have all the loot they get taken by PK players.
"Since I am already in Hell, I might as well go to dungeons here. It was incredibly difficult to find a suitable dungeon in the main world. All of you guys should do it as well. We shall reconvene after eight days. Please be safe in Hell." Adrian stated as he announced to his guild members that they are free to move.
Some of the guild members immediately nodded and went for kingdoms to buy items that are only found in Hell. Some preferred to go solo and hunt in dungeons as they wanted to become stronger. Some formed groups as they wanted to challenge a stronger dungeon that they cannot do so in their own.
"What are you going to do, big brother?" Creepysoo asked Adrian.
"I am going to a dungeon and clear it on my own. I need some of my soulbounds to get to the same level as me. What about you? Hell does not have undead or death in general." Adrian stated.
"Hehe! I am going to War Zones! Areas like this one here have miasma full of death even if the concept of true death does not exist here in Hell. I was in need of that miasma for a while now and the main world does not have much. In Hell, however, the War Zones are drowning in it!" Creepysoo stated as he left.
"What about you?" Adrian asked Peridot.
"I do not like it here. I will go back to the main world and get ready with the other guild members." Peridot stated as she gave her goodbyes and tore up a teleportation scroll.
Adrian's eyes turned fierce as the fight that will happen in ten days would be the next large-scale war that will happen. Just because players do not have the mark does not mean that they cannot participate. They cannot get the reward but that does not mean that they cannot get experience points when they kill others. After all, large wars give the best experience points even if you do not kill monsters.
