God Simulator

Chapter 193: Apostle Soul Mark

Beneath the Silvanus Tree, the next phase of the mission required a deity to enter and undergo a trial. According to the Forest God’s plan, this candidate was Isabella, who had regained her memory and Godhood, but now Lu Yao had turned her into the White God.

Previously, entities from the pixel world couldn’t enter the Golden Plains. Even if Lu Yao could click to open it, apart from claiming rewards from the Silvanus Tree, he could only admire the scenery of the plains.

This time, however, the White God stepped in without any hindrance.

A prompt appeared on the Simulator.

【Trial consists of three stages, commencing shortly…】

The White God obviously received the same prompt, shuddering slightly.

It was clear that She harbored a deep wariness of this renowned main god space.

Text appeared on the game interface.

【First stage of the trial, the test of divine common sense officially begins.】

【Now, listen to the questions.】

【Question 1, what was the secular name used by the Forest God?】

【Isabella Alice Seroli】

【Isabella Sylvia Seroli】

【Isabella Violet Seroli】

The White God was puzzled.

Lu Yao quickly called for Sarina. It could be said that the one who knew Isabella best now was not herself, but Miss Tyrant.

"My lord, it’s Sylvia."

Lu Yao clicked the mouse, and the screen immediately popped up with the feedback 【Correct】.

He breathed a sigh of relief, able to answer remotely.

Thank goodness for the Tyrant.

【Question 2, who did the Forest Witch love?】

【King Reed XIV】

【Queen Ruby】

【Prince Reed】

【Everyone】

Although Lu Yao was fairly certain it was the last option, he asked Sarina just to be safe. The Tyrant gave the same answer.

"She always finds excuses for her boundless love," Sarina couldn’t help but murmur.

The answer was correct.

【Question 3, how would you describe the Black Witch?】

【The embodiment of evil and strangeness】

【The lifelong enemy of the Forest Witch】

【A witch with a dark psyche】

【An enemy needed by everyone】

Lu Yao chose the last option.

Correct.

He thought to himself, thankfully he had read a few pages of the Book of Memories, otherwise he might have chosen the wrong answers to these questions.

【Question 4, the Forest God had two close friends, what were their names?】

【Sarina and Ruby】

【Sarina and Prince Reed】

【Sarina and Winnie】

【Sarina and Lilith】

Lu Yao relayed the question to Sarina.

An exclamation mark lit up above her head, followed by a tangled mess, as if she was feeling quite conflicted.

"My lord... I don’t know."

Regardless, at least Seroli indeed considered Sarina a close friend—she felt so, even though she didn’t hesitate to betray when necessary.

Lu Yao wavered on the last two options.

Finally, he chose Winnie.

The answer was correct.

Questions kept popping up one after another.

A total of 12 questions, Lu Yao answered 10 correctly. He was quite confident about the first 8, but many of the later ones were guesses, as the questions had delved into specialized knowledge of witchcraft, history, rituals, and more.

Fortunately, with 10 out of 12 correct, he passed this stage.

After a while, new subtitles appeared on the screen.

【Second stage of the trial, the Testimony of Freist officially begins.】

【Please withstand 60 seconds against the Forest God’s Chief Apostle, Freist. You may give up at any time and retry.】

Lu Yao was puzzled.

Wasn’t Freist’s corpse in the castle? After being killed by the Whistleblower, his remains had also become material for the creation of the Corrupter Legion.

Was there another one here?

Moments later, a giant figure emerged on the Golden Plains.

He had four curved horns on his head, pale eyes without pupils, muscles knotted all over his body, draped in leaves and moss, and from his mouth with sharp teeth, he exhaled puffs of white breath.

Above Freist’s head displayed 【Apostle LV99】

Holy shit.

This was Freist’s true form!

Faced with the oppressive Freist, the White God decisively started running around the Silvanus Tree, with no intention of a direct confrontation.

Lu Yao quickly opened 【True Sight Curse】 to check the enemy’s status.

【Apostle LV99】 Demigod Giant · Freist 【Saint Mark】

Health: 89513/89513

Mana: 5107/5107

Damage: 499

Defense: 399

Speed: 25

【Wisdom LV25】

Wisdom is key for an Apostle to heed the will of the gods. The higher the level of wisdom, the easier it is to enhance and comprehend various abilities.

【Demigod】

Offspring of a deity, with a certain probability of awakening some of the divine powers.

【Forest Soul Mystery】

Summon a large number of Forest Souls to rapidly heal oneself, with the healing power related to the number of Forest Souls and enhanced in forest regions.

【Defense Mystery LV21】

When taking damage, there is a certain probability of perfect defense, negating the damage.

【Life Mystery LV55】

Innately possessing extremely high health. Unraveling the mystery of life, constructing additional forms of life with magic. Can slowly recover naturally or be restored with magic and items.

【Thorns LV33】

After being hit by a melee attack, deals 40 damage to the attacker, with the thorns effect depending on defensive ability.

【Gigantification LV15】 【Unavailable】

Causes extreme enlargement of the body to increase damage and movement range, but also incurs more damage accumulation.

【Soul Seal LV18】 【Unavailable】

【Freist’s Exclusive Ability】 Based on Forest Souls, constructs a sturdy prison with magic to seal the enemy within. The success rate and effect of Soul Seal depend on the ability level and the opponent’s remaining health percentage.

Freist’s stats silenced Lu Yao.

So this was the true power of the Forest God’s Chief Apostle.

A head-on battle was out of the question.

Fortunately, the second stage of the trial didn’t require defeating Freist, just surviving for 60 seconds to be considered a success.

However, even without the Demigod Giant’s ability to use 【Gigantification】 and his exclusive move 【Soul Seal】, the White God was still in a very difficult position to escape and evade.

The giant was too fast, with maxed-out attack and defense, and just by pursuing and swinging his fists rapidly, he made it hard for the White God to cope.

Even after activating 【Intimidation】 to reduce the opponent’s damage by 20%, each hit caused the White God to lose 300 health. In less than 10 seconds, Her health was bottoming out, and She began to rely on the Fire of Faith to withstand the blows.

Lu Yao wasn’t particularly worried.

Given the current attack frequency of once per second, as long as there wasn’t much variation, it would only cost 18,000 faith.

He directly transferred 20,000 faith to the White God, considering it an expense for the mission.

With a substantial supply of faith, the previously languishing White God suddenly perked up, and even Her running and getting hit carried a flair of nonchalance and confidence.

After 60 seconds, Freist vanished without a trace.

A green mark resembling a three-leaf clover was left in his place.

Lu Yao clicked on it and discovered it was a new item that could be picked up.

【Apostle Soul Mark】: Faith -6000/use.

The holder needs to use the Fire of Faith or health as nourishment to briefly activate this forbidden spell, summoning the main god-level 【Saint Mark · Freist】 remodeled by the Forest God, calling upon Freist’s soul mark to fight, lasting 60 seconds.

Lu Yao held his breath as he read.

This time he had truly struck gold!

The 【Soul Mark】 and 【True Sight Eye】 both belonged to main god-level magical items, and this one was specifically for direct combat—a top-tier combat equipment.

Freist was an all-rounder in attack and defense, with innate thorns and healing abilities, and a health bar that was ridiculously thick. For 60 seconds, he would be the perfect hexagonal warrior.

With the Soul Mark in hand, the next venture into the Abyss would be much easier.

It had to be said, the Forest God indeed left behind treasures of immeasurable value for her resurrection.

Lu Yao took a deep gulp of water.

After calming down a bit, he turned his attention back to the Golden Plains.

The screen displayed.

【Third stage of the trial, Finding the Wind-up Monkeys officially begins.】

【Please find the 6 scattered wind-up monkeys in the Golden Plains and repair them. Only the wind-up monkeys can precisely control the Silvanus Tree, and this will be the final test.】

【Once the final trial is completed, the Golden Plains will fully open to you, all treasures on the Silvanus Tree will belong to you, and this world will operate according to your will.】
