In the game "Super God," thankfully, it can simulate countless worlds.

[At dusk, you and Franzena infiltrated the temple, while Zirlo was tasked with drawing away the temple guards.]

[Once most of the guards in the temple have left, it will be your and Franzena's time to make your move.]

[Francena was clearly a veteran; her infiltration tactics were impeccable, and she wasn't detected by any priests along the way.]

[Until a huge explosion rang out outside, it was the signal that Zirlo would begin his operation.]

[A series of runic fluctuations emanated from outside the temple, and instantly, shouts of battle shook the heavens as priests continuously rushed out of the temple to fight against Zirlo.]

As a veteran level three wizard, Zirlo suppressed his strength to roughly the level of a level one wizard to mislead his opponents, but he could still easily overpower the guards.

As time went by, Zirlo gradually increased his power, attracting more people to leave the temple and hunt him down.

More and more priests rushed out to fight the invaders, and the temple slowly became empty. You and Franzena exchanged a glance; the time was almost right.

[You draw the Godslayer Sword; the elemental furnace in the dark dimension rumbles, and the Annihilation Cannon is poised to fire.]

You pointed your sword at the very center of the temple, and a chilling power gathered within the god-slaying blade.

[Heavenly Dao - Annihilation!]

In an instant, a thick, jet-black ray shot straight ahead, its immense energy fluctuations creating towering waves.

[Along its path, anything in its way was rapidly decomposed; nothing could withstand the annihilation cannon even for a moment.]

[Until the annihilation cannon struck the goddess statue in the center of the temple squarely.]

[It is said that the Goddess of Night unleashes her divine power through these statues, so let's eliminate the threat beforehand!]

【ah!!!】

The goddess sculpture seemed to come alive, letting out a agonizing scream the instant the annihilation cannon struck.

The shrieking sound formed a massive shield in front of the statue, but it was all in vain.

The statue didn't even last a second against the annihilation cannon before being completely engulfed by the energy torrent.

You wielded the God-Slaying Sword, unleashing a barrage of attacks in all directions from the temple.

In an instant, darkness enveloped the area within dozens of miles centered on the temple.

After you finished firing, the dark light on the God-Slaying Sword in your hand slowly dissipated.

This was the first time the wizard's weapon had been unleashed. You looked around at the desolate landscape left after the annihilation cannon had swept through; buildings and night elves alike had been reduced to nothingness, leaving not even ashes.

"You're using... an annihilation cannon?"

Franzena crouched at your feet, trembling.

She almost peed her pants when she saw your God-Slaying Sword slash past her head.

Fortunately, she successfully found a blind spot.

[You sheathed the Godslayer Sword, feeling a slight tearing sensation in your body. Although the Annihilation Cannon's power was controlled by the Red Queen, its primary energy source was the Godslayer Sword.]

However, even minor side effects can make you feel unwell.

[As expected of a deterrent weapon used to arm wizard towers, its individual use is indeed somewhat strained.]

Looking around at the horrific scene, you sighed.

[These are just standard weapons in the wizarding world, things you can buy with money. I can't even imagine what kind of effect those giant weapons used by fourth-level wizards would have.]

Franzena stood up, her face pale.

She initially thought you were a newbie who needed her guidance, and even teased you quite a bit.

[I never expected you, you little rascal, to be acting cute all this time, silently using your ultimate skill like a basic attack.]

Franzena glanced at the ruins of the temple, walked to where the statue of the Goddess of Night had once stood, and picked up a crown-like object from the ground.

This crown originally belonged to the head of a deity. Even though the deity has vanished, the crown remains intact; it's clearly a valuable item.

[It might just be one of those so-called magical artifacts!]

Zirlo walked somewhat awkwardly to your side, giving you a complicated look.

He had initially assumed that he, a peak level three wizard, was the strongest member of the exploration team.

[I didn't expect there to be such a master!]

[Zirlo patted you on the shoulder, telling you to let him know in advance next time you're going to unleash your ultimate attack.]

He was a little scared.

The three of you should proceed to the center of the temple, where there is a hidden underground vault.

Damn it, you intruder...

A broken voice came from beneath the ruins. Zirlo waved his hand, and an invisible spiritual force coalesced into a mage's hand, lifting the collapsed rubble.

A night elf, half-dismembered by an annihilation cannon, lay dying on the ground.

You glanced at this night elf; if you remember correctly, she is the supreme ruler of the Dark Night Divine Ruins Kingdom, the Night Queen.

[Based on the intelligence you've gathered, the Dark Queen's strength should be close to that of a level three wizard.]

The goddess will punish you!

The Dark Queen suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, her head lolled to the side, and she died.

[Tsk, what a weak race.]

[Zirlo glanced disdainfully at the Night Queen, and with a wave of his hand, countless flames swept across, burning the corpses on the ground to ashes.]

A pure silver gemstone fell to the ground with a clink.

[Huh? A divinely favored gem!]

Franzena picked up the gem from the ground with great interest.

She explained to you that this gem is composed of the power of faith, which can amplify mental strength in battle, and can be used to accelerate cultivation by consuming the faith stored within it.

[In addition, if one has a deity to whom they have faith, they can sacrifice the power of their faith within the gem to summon the deity's power to possess them.]

It seems this divinely favored gem is the Dark Queen's trump card.

Franzena shook her head. It was a pity the queen didn't even have time to use her trump card before being instantly defeated.

You've gotten this divinely favored gem for nothing.

[Franzana indicates that she wants the gem, but after exploring the temple's treasury, she can take a smaller portion of the spoils as compensation for the gem.]

[You and Zirlo neither agreed nor disagreed, but you granted Franzena's request.]

[The power of faith is good, but not everyone is willing to use it, especially wizards, a race that pursues truth and has never held things like gods and faith in high regard.]

As for what Franzena does with the divine gem, that's none of your business.

[The three of you will proceed towards the temple's secret vault, where resources are stored—resources accumulated over countless years by the Dark Night Divine Ruins Kingdom.]

Although this is just one of many vaults in the Night Elf kingdom, it is definitely the richest one.

This is your biggest takeaway from this trip.
