Chapter 130: Fifth-Level Lord!
Unfortunately, Werner's dream once again ended in failure. Sivis had dealt with so much in Minnet City that he simply didn't have the time to think about this Saint.
In the sealed, dark room, Werner's body writhed. The messy clothes revealed a variety of seductive details that no one could see.
Inside her heart, two completely different thoughts were clashing: one was that she firmly believed her friend Vikalina would come to rescue her. She just needed to endure hunger and thirst, and absolutely not let that monster succeed!
On the other hand, she had already been tortured physically so many times that she couldn't help but want to give in — Werner was still just a girl who hadn't yet broken through the Extraordinary. In this world, only the Extraordinary was truly the key to changing one's life level and truly transforming a person.
The future Saint of Light was still just a commoner's body!
Werner's will had been completely worn down by the overly long time. She had already imagined, more than once, that the devil who had humiliated her would appear quickly, giving her a quick death and the "relief" she had dreamed of day and night.
Werner longed for...
Even if she was just lying in bed, she still couldn't help but let out a series of moans.
Extremely tempting, seductive.
She was already far away from the purity of a Saint!
If Sivis had seen this scene, he would probably feel a little regret for not being able to witness such a moment — in the previous life, he could have made the Saint fall into being his servant in the game, but the game didn't have a system that supported drugging.
This scene before his eyes was the ultimate beautiful scenery that only a transmigrator could enjoy!
Unfortunately, Sivis had no idea that this scene was happening.
Werner's situation was even worse. The "demon" she had been waiting for to free her was busy saving the world, saving the subjects, and thinking about how to further develop the territory. As a result, she had almost completely forgotten about this Saint.
Her good friend Vikalina was completely absorbed in the joy of finding a companion who had the power to save the world, and had completely forgotten about Werner.
It wasn't that Vikalina was heartless. Although she and Werner had a good relationship, it was only because they found common ground in the Church, both resisting the corruption of others.
Now, what did a female knight need a Saint for to resist so-called "corruption"?
Sivis alone was more than enough to carry all of her dreams.
Werner?
She wasn't needed anymore.
After all, Vikalina had just escaped from a major catastrophe, and she was deeply immersed in the harmony and soul connection with Sivis — who had time to think about her good sister?
Werner was destined to continue suffering in this torment.
But...
Werner's originally very wet and reddened face suddenly stiffened — she, as a Saint, had a special sensitivity to some of the Church's secrets.
At this moment, she suddenly realized something: "This kind of fluctuation... was something awakened? Could it be... the Divine Punishment Knight Order?"
A massive and solemn power suddenly emerged from her heart.
Although she had never seen it with her own eyes, in an instant, Werner understood the source of this power — it was the revival of the holders of a long-standing mysterious power within the Church!
But for some reason, even though she, like Vikalina, had grown up listening to the legends and stories of the Divine Punishment Knight Order, this future Saint should have had great respect for this powerful force.
But her expression was wrong!
After being tortured by a large amount of medicine, Werner, with her extremely outstanding talent, had gained some improvement from this torment — her mental and physical sensitivity had greatly increased, allowing her to sense many things she couldn't before.
At this moment, she sensed from the will of the so-called "Knight Orders that once saved the world" as they awoke not the so-called "light that could save the world," but a very strange and terrifying violent energy.
This was completely unlike the power given by a True GodLord. It was more like the power of something extremely brutal — their consciousness was chaotic and disordered, filled with a desire for killing and conquest!
It was just wrapped in layers of solemn and respectful atmosphere!
But in essence, it was still... wild and chaotic!
"What's going on here?" Werner's face was full of confusion.
If Sivis were here, he could have clarified things for her — because the so-called "Divine Punishment Knight Order" power came from the strength of a demon duke who had been repelled and pushed back to hell by the True God's forces.
The most powerful warriors of the Church had once been elevated by fusing with demonic power. This secret was known to very few people in the world, and even the current Pope and bishops of the Church might not have been aware of it.
Those who had participated in the experiment that transformed the "Divine Punishment Knight Order" had, in order to keep this secret, mostly chosen to sacrifice themselves on the battlefield of Exorcism.
Only the "players" from beyond the sky knew the long-forgotten secret.
Unfortunately...
The aura of the Divine Punishment Knight Order's awakening quickly faded away.
Once the deep, soul-shaking fear left her, Werner's body trembled and she curled up in a corner of the room — the strange and unsettling emotion she had just barely managed to dispel returned with full force.
Werner once again longed to grab hold of her monster, hoping he would appear... to torment her, to trample her, to destroy her!
Unfortunately...
He didn't come.
He never showed up.
Werner was struggling more and more.
The sensual feeling she had grown accustomed to had faded, but it came back again, causing her great pain as a Saint.
Originally, Werner had barely managed to get used to it.
But now, after the brief disappearance of the Knight Order's revival, the sensual desire surged back into her body, and she could no longer resist it.
Another round of torment quickly filled the small room with the girl's suppressed moans.
Yet, in this remote monster domain far from the world, no one could witness this scene.
...
On the other side, watching as many civilians had followed his orders and started cleaning up the factory that had suffered a significant impact during this Blood Servant wave.
Sivis gently shook Vikalina's arm and said, "Okay, you can let go now." He said with a smile.
Vikalina let out a small gasp.
She hadn't realized she had been holding Sivis's hand for so long.
Sivis had a little laugh — he hadn't really planned to hold hands with Vikalina for that long. Seeing Reina behind them frown and look annoyed but not daring to stop them, he found it amusing and let Vikalina keep the situation as it was.
Sure enough, he saw the little maid looking like she was about to explode.
When Sivis saw Reina's expression, he was about to go over and comfort her a little.
But —
His system suddenly popped up with new information!
Sivis stopped and chose to view it:
[Congratulations, you have met the promotion criteria: win a battle! You have now been promoted to 5th Level Monster Lord!]
As this message appeared,
Sivis felt a beam of light descending from the sky, bathing him in its glow.
However, this light was only visible to him.
It was a special light that only appeared after a major breakthrough in the game.
"Who would have thought, in real life, this kind of light effect would also appear?"
Sivis felt his entire body filled with energy, which was now flowing more smoothly and effortlessly under the influence of some strange force.
He paused for a moment — in the game, when a Monster Lord level up, there were no additional bonuses. But the game had also mentioned that, as a special profession, each level-up of Monster Lord essentially pushed the player toward "adapting to the power of the Divine."
The developer of Gandanyir had also mentioned that in their next release, players would be able to play as former Monster Lords or other similar special classes in a special gameplay mode called "Hall of the Gods."
Many speculated that the developer would finally open up the previously hidden content related to the Divine.
They would also allow players to carry over their previous save files.
Plus, the game had subtly mentioned in some texts that the promotion of special classes was connected to the Divine.
So some players did some research and realized the uniqueness of these player-exclusive classes.
Originally, these were just text within the game.
The developer hadn't assigned any numerical changes, so a Monster Lord's level-up was completely useless.
But now it was different!
Sivis truly felt that his body seemed to be more suitable for the flow of the "god-rank" divine power within him.
"Did it really have this effect?" His eyes lit up with surprise.
However, after increasing his adaptability to divine power, Sivis still didn't have any divine power he could actually use — either he had to advance to a semi-god and try to activate the divine power within himself, or, as previously planned, use Dace·Dracula as a stepping stone to directly absorb the divine power of the God of the Blood Sea.
Both options were far off.
Instead, Sivis turned his attention to a new prompt that had just appeared on his panel:
[Congratulations on reaching Lord 5th Level — you will be granted a talent selection!]
This message was different from a regular level-up. It used golden characters to mark it, showing that this selection was definitely special.
In front of Sivis, three extremely bright beams of light appeared — this was a hidden rule in the game that when a Monster Lord first leveled up, a powerful talent would appear. The selection style was the same as other talents.
But this time, at 5th Level, it was different. Three talents that looked extraordinary immediately appeared before Sivis's eyes:
[Conquest Blade]
[Effect: Every time you kill an enemy, it will fill the "Proof of Conquest." Once full, you will receive a high-quality and substantial reward.]
[Dominion Power]
[Effect: All of your troop units will receive a boost, increasing their strength by one rank. The highest they can reach with this bonus is the same rank as your host. For example: if your host is currently Silver-Rank, this bonus can strengthen a Bronze-Ten-Ranke unit to Silver-One-Rank, if your host is Gold-Rank, this bonus can elevate a Silver-Ten-Rank unit to Gold-One-Rank.]
