Chapter 370: Eighty-Fifth Floor, The Corpse of the Dead God (4)
Although I was deep beneath the Sea of Lava, the horn had repelled the molten flow around me. That bought me a moment of calm.
I quickly scanned the message.
Apparently, I had fully recovered the god’s remains, completing a hidden mission. However, there was more.
The tower will grant me a new reward if I resolve her lingering resentment. So, she wants revenge against the god who killed her?
At least for now, that wasn’t something I could manage. Facing a deity would have to wait.
I turned my gaze elsewhere. Just like before, the divine corpse crumbled. The colossal, serpent-or-dragon-like body disintegrated into fragments of luminous blue and gold. It scattered across the depths.
Something different occurred this time, though.
The horn is absorbing the divinity?
It was even drawing the divine energy suffused into the lava into it. The radiance within it swelled.
An intense pain surged through my hand, and I was forced to release my grip on the horn.
The horn, which had gleamed momentarily, was longer than before. It had always been roughly the length of my forearm, but it stretched nearly two meters. Additionally, the tip had grown sharper, and it now resembled a spear more than a horn.
Thud, thud!
