Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 16 Chapter 16- Treasure of Erebus (God of Chaos)

Ever since John climbed up to the top of the ranking leaderboard, he had been looking for a way to hide his information.

Finally, during a trial use of the "Eye of Artemis," he suddenly discovered... this skill not only could reveal the truth about other objects but also could conceal his own information!

This was one of the many mysterious powers of the Eye of Artemis talent.

Artemis, the God of Hunt, represents the moon, hunt, insight...

Thus, hiding information is exactly Artemis's field of expertise!

That is to say, when he activates the "Eye of Artemis," his personal information can be completely hidden!

So, later on, John completely hid his information on the leaderboard, and it became normal that other players couldn't see the level of the "Anonymous Player" being updated.

Of course, John did not intend to explain this to Emma.

After all, she didn't know about it was he on the ranking leaderboard.

He coughed lightly to alleviate the awkwardness, then continued, "There's nothing much to say about this, maybe that player just didn't want to play anymore, right? Any other interesting things?"

Emma propped her chin with her hand, thought for a moment, then said, "Oh yes! Today, White Feather and I wiped out a bandit camp!"

"Is that so, that's great," John started sipping his soup, casually responding.

"We also got a really nice item, probably a Legendary item," Emma added.

At this, John put down his bowl and looked at her in surprise.

As far as John knew, none of the players outside the temple had ever gotten a Legendary item.

Given the almost 0 drop rate of Legendary items... It was clear that Emma and White Feather had obtained a highly valuable item!

John was intrigued and asked, "Really? What kind of item? What does it do?"

Emma shook her head, "I don't know. It was described as an old and mysterious parchment, written in a strange language with important information... I don't know anything beyond that."

Hearing Emma say this, John became even more interested.

According to his past gaming experience, the items that have fewer introductions and are more mysterious often turn out to be more valuable in the end.

It's very possible that there's some secret hidden behind this parchment!

John couldn't leave the temple in the game at the moment, but he still wanted to gather as much information about the world outside the temple as possible.

That way, when he's able to leave the temple, he won't be completely ignorant and have trouble integrating into other player groups.

John asked, "Do you have that Legendary item with you? Can you send it to me through the trading system? I wanna check this item"

Emma shook her head, "No, it's with White Feather."

"What do you plan to do with this item?" John asked again.

Emma replied, "We discussed and thought that neither of us could use it, so we decided to auction it off at the newbie village auction house next time we log in... We might get a lot of Gold Coins for it, after all, this is the first Legendary item I've ever seen."

John immediately shook his head, "Tell White Feather not to auction this item. No matter what price you eventually get, with the current purchasing power of players, the Gold Coins you get will definitely be far less than the value of the parchment itself."

"Next time you log on, send this thing to me to have a look."

"I might be able to see some clues from it."

Emma always listened to John, hearing him say this, she nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll listen to you. White Feather will definitely have no objections to your suggestion."

Over the past month, John has been a major customer of White Feather.

She has made a lot of Gold Coins from selling Silver Tear to John.

Therefore, White Feather has always respected John, calling him the big boss.

Because of John, she would call Emma "My lady".

In White Feather's view, John must be a very wealthy person in reality, otherwise, he couldn't possibly afford to spend so many Gold Coins.

Therefore, Emma, who lives with John, must be a "Lady".

"Very good," John finished discussing this matter and then felt a bit sleepy.

He glanced at Emma, giving her a suggestive look.

Emma knew exactly what he was thinking upon seeing this look.

She quickly covered her proud chest and said, "No! It's too late today, it's already midnight! How about... tomorrow? I'm off tomorrow, and there are no classes at school."

Regardless of what she said, John just smiled and calmly said, "Okay, then tomorrow."

Emma was stunned. This was the first time she had seen John being so obedient.

"What... what's going on with you?"

"What do you mean?"

Emma pouted, "Usually, if I say something like this, you'd immediately pounce on me without a word, or directly carry me to the bedroom... Why are you so calm today?"

Seeing John agree so readily to not do it, Emma felt a little disappointed.

She couldn't help but doubt if she wasn't attractive to John anymore.

John laughed out loud and pointed at the time on his phone.

At that moment, the time was exactly 23:59:56.

In other words, in four seconds, it would be "tomorrow".

Seeing the time, Emma immediately understood John's meaning, and said in realization, "I knew it!"

Four seconds later, without any hesitation, John directly picked up Emma and said, "See, I acted according to your words, not until 'tomorrow'."

After saying this, he carried Emma back into the bedroom.

...

The next day.

Not long after John and Emma logged on, Emma contacted John and said, "Brother John, White Feather is already online. I've told her about your request. Shall we send the item to you now for review?"

"Sure", John replied.

Soon, the glowing golden item appeared before John.

He picked it up and was instantly stunned.

The strange characters on this parchment, he seemed to have seen them before!

He turned his head to look at the twisted stone gate he had entered countless times.

Then, he looked at the walls around the temple...

That's right.

The language on this parchment was the same as the language inside this Godslayer temple!

John tried to use the "Eye of Artemis" to look at the parchment.

Unfortunately, while the "Eye of Artemis" could see the essence of things, it did not have a translation function.

However, John still made progress.

With the help of the Eye of Artemis, he at least knew what the item in front of him was...

"Treasure of Erebus"?!

Was this a God's treasure map?

From a literal understanding, this "God of Chaos" should be a god in charge of chaos and ambiguity... It seemed to have some relation to "Azazel"?

What would happen if he brought this parchment to Azazel?

While John was examining the parchment, White Feather sent a message: "Boss, I've sent you the item. Emma and I have discussed it. If you like it, we'll give it to you."

John thought for a moment and did not reject outright.

If this item really had something to do with The Devil he needed to defeat, it would be a very valuable tool for him.

But if this parchment was unrelated to Azazel, there was no need for him to hoard it.

After all, it was the result of the two girls' hard work fighting monsters.

So, John replied: "Okay, I'll try to see if this item is useful to me. If it is, I will buy it from you with enough Gold Coins. If it's not, I'll return it to you."

After a while, White Feather replied: "Okay, we have no problem with that."

Then, curiously, she sent another message: "By the way, Boss, I always see that you hide your personal information... Emma and I are already at level 38. Can you tell me what level you are?" The message was accompanied by a cute emoji.

Asked by White Feather, John looked at his attribute interface... and the number "586" displayed on his level.

He couldn't help but give a wry smile.

He felt that if he really told them his actual level, they might think he had gone mad.
