Super God of War Chapter 370 - Level 40!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Forming a contract was an extremely difficult mission. Players must be able to discern and find NPCs who had lower levels, or fame to interact with them for a few days in order to complete the mission. Furthermore, they would need to handle emergency situations such as taking care of an NPC's sick mother or finding an NPC's lost son.

Once the players formed a close bond with an NPC, they could invite them to form a contract and be their followers. Depending on the NPC's personality, behavior, and habits, this might take a longer time. Lastly, the players would have to find a Contract Master and complete another series of missions before being able to form a contract with a follower.

After the contract, the NPC would gain an equipment slot, skill column, and the ability to level up, just like a player. Subsequently, the player would have gotten a good assistant. However, there were many restrictions for the follower. Upon death, its level would reset to zero, and consecutive deaths may lead to the follower betraying its master.

However, Lin Jie's contract with the Mermaid Princess was much simpler. Now that the Mermaid Princess was in critical danger, how could she even go through such long mission progress? Tyrese went ahead and immediately formed a contract!

"Herya, enter your personal follower space. I will find the items for you to recover as soon as possible," said Lin Jie with concern before sending the Mermaid Princess into the space.

Ding~

—'The favorability of Herya, the Mermaid Princess, towards you has grown.'

Lin Jie checked the Mermaid Princess' stats immediately and gasped with admiration.

Notice: The Mermaid Princess is in a weakened state. Unable to join you for battle until full recovery.

'Nice, 1,500 Mana at Level 10. This is why we shouldn't compare. If Mages were to see this, they would be so jealous. What a pity her skills are a little weak.' Lin Jie sighed. Even in her weakened state, Herya's stats were abnormally strong! If she were to recover, wouldn't it be through the roof?

Lin Jie bowed to Tyrese respectfully before saying, "Thank you."

Tyrese smiled. "I should be the one thanking you. It's because of you we were able to successfully destroy the Mesosaprobic Shrine! Unfortunately, we were unable to find the Dark Holy Water Source, which is the spring water that's left behind by the Blessings of the Holy Light. If we can find it and cleanse the souls of Holy Church Believers, all Paladins and Priests will become two times stronger! Will you help me find the Dark Holy Water Source?"

Ding~

—"Do you accept the mission?"

Mission title: [Search for the Source]

Mission details: Tyrese wishes for you to help find the Dark Holy Water Source. It should be hidden somewhere in the Mesosaprobic Shrine.

Mission reward: Experience points, gold coins, popularity, and 10 drops of Dark Water.

Lin Jie rejected the mission. He said in a sincere tone, "I'm already satisfied. You should give this mission to someone else. I wish to quickly save Herya, so I have to leave now. Also, my team members are still fighting with the master of Blood Sub-Shrine, the Blood Tyrant. I am worried about them."

"Since that's the case, it's fine. If I find the Dark Holy Water Source, I will still give you 10 drops of water," said Tyrese as she waved her hand. "However, since you have fulfilled your promise, I have to do so as well. Firstly, here's your mission reward. Thank you for your contributions to the Guild of Light!"

Swoosh!

There was a ray of light on top of Lin Jie's head! Level up!

Level 40!

—"You've participated in the Main Plot Mission. You gained 12,000,000 EXP, 100 gold coins, 1,500 points. You gained 15,000 Reputation from City of Light and 1,800 points from Holy Church!"

—"You've reached level 40! You gained 5 Free Stat Points, 2 Fixed Stat Points, and 1 Specialty Point."

—"You can advance your job. Find a master and ascend!"

'I'm finally Level 40, I can learn the Mystic Skill Book!' Lin Jie checked the rankings board. Apparently, Wantless, who was ranked second, had been overtaken by that crazy Fat Cattle. Domestic Fat Cattle, Level 34, number one on the rankings board!

In that case, Lin Jie was in the lead by 6 levels! Although there were many high rankers who were hiding their identities, they should be nothing compared to Lin Jie.

If he were to advance his job, his stats and skill effects would greatly increase too. The final tournament was going to be a piece of cake! Thinking of that, Lin Jie turned his gaze and asked, "Commander, you are one of the judges of the final tournament, right?"

"Yes." Tyrese looked at Lin Jie in puzzlement, not understanding why he was asking that question.

"Who's the host of the battle this time?"

"She's a human from the alternate realm, An Xiaoran."

Lin Jie's eyes gleamed as he asked, "Can I recommend someone to host the final tournament instead?"

Tyrese smiled. She pointed at Lin Jie and replied, "You can just ask yourself!"

"Ask myself?"

"Yes, you have the power now." Tyrese said mysteriously, "As of now, your power is able to defeat every human in the alternate realm and come in first place. However, I have a better suggestion. Why don't you be a judge along with us, the Holy Church Knights and Commanders of the Empire?

"What? You want me as a judge?" Lin Jie was stunned. "But, you've also said it yourself. If I were to participate in the battle, I would surely get first place. I'm pretty interested in the rewards for the champion."

"You will be more interested in being a judge. Think it through and come find me anytime before the start of the final battle." Tyrese turned around and said as she slowly walked away, "Knight Leader Cade will be arriving soon. I have to meet him and lead the battle to clean up the remaining forces in the shrine. Carefully make your choice."

Ding~

—"You've received 2,000 points."

Lin Jie's gleamed with excitement. 'Be a judge? Interesting!' The rewards for the top three finalists of the final tournament were going to be abundant, and those who placed 4th to 6th would be able to receive many rewards like EXP and gold. If he were to become a judge, would he be able to snatch all the rewards for himself?

'I have to settle the matter at hand first! Combining the points I've obtained from the Paladin Knight, Mermaid Princess, and mission rewards, I have a total of 8,574 points! I can redeem a lot of great items! Also, the Dark Holy Water Source is right here in my pocket. I have to find a way to resolve this." Lin Jie turned his gaze and landed on the most eye-catching yet inconspicuous thing in the shrine—Sea Bed!

To be exact, it was the Sea Bed, which had lost all of its strength.

The Sea Bed was a Legendary item. Even if it had lost all of its spiritual power, it was still powerful. This bed was a deep-sea crystal that could only be formed in the heart of the sea vortex by the condensation of thousands of tons of water.

Broken Blade immediately changed to excavator mode to dig and obtain the Sea Bed! Although the Sea Bed looked extremely tough, it was actually soft like tofu. Without needing much strength, a large piece of delicate deep-sea crystal was dug out and placed into Lin Jie's bag! Water was able to change its state. If one infused magic into the deep sea crystal, it would become as hard as iron. Once the magic was dispelled, it would become soft like this.

Lin Jie split the Sea Bed into countless pieces of deep-sea crystals, keeping them in his bag.

"Viscount? Tyrese, didn't the Viscount you mentioned once traveled to Crying Bay? Darn it, it is indeed that human! He stole my Holy Light Stone of Grace and my Space Package!" A voice roared like raging waves from a distance away.

'Knight Leader Cade is here! Retreat!' Lin Jie's neck shrunk as he immediately took out the returning scroll to go back to the City of Light. How much trouble would he be in if he were to be caught by that jealous dude with a terrible temper?

At that moment, the entire Guild of Light was still immersed in the joy of completing the Main Plot Mission! After the countless players killed the Undead and found treasures, they thought they could exchange for a good item with the dozens of points they had obtained. However, the number of points required to redeem one item was in the hundreds and even thousands!

In fact, ordinary players would have to save points for a long time and even participate in two to three Main Plot Missions to be able to accumulate enough to exchange for an item. Only Lin Jie, who was the lead in completing the Main Plot Mission and contributed the most, would be able to receive a large reward!

Now that the mission had progressed, Knight Leader Cade would be leading tens of thousands of knights to charge into the Blood Sub-Shrine and the Mesosaprobic Shrine. They would be razing them to the ground and building a camp for front liners. Countless players were assisting NPCs in killing enemies and earning points. This Main Plot Mission battle would last for at least half a month before it would gradually stop.

Since the Dark Holy Water Source was taken away by Lin Jie, players who joined the temple of darkness could not upgrade their stats through the Dark Holy Water from then on! Although the skills of the Dark Shrine were still powerful, they had their attractive point where they could increase their stats easily. Now, fewer players would join the Dark Shrine. Even players who had changed to become the Hidden Job, Dark Blood Bandit, proactively left and returned to the Guild of Light. They had begun to do missions for atonement.

Just then, cheers could be heard from the team channel. "We got the head of Blood Tyrant!"

Lin Jie was over the moon. He exclaimed, "Brothers, I've obtained the biggest reward in my hands. Return to the city now, to Sakura's Pub!"

He pondered before sending a message to Eighteen Massacres: "Sakura's Pub, bring lots of gold coins, your treat."
