I Became the Progenitor Vampire Chapter 86

Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Emi with Incredibly Good Luck (4/4)

“I've found a way to become a god.”

Lide looked bewildered upon hearing these words. Wasn't that a bit over their heads?

He had just reached Level 11, and the highest level in their group, Emi, was only at Level 15. To start thinking about ascending to godhood now seemed rather premature.

Above the Transcendent, there was the Legendary Level, and only mighty individuals at that level began to consider godhood — something that was usually pondered after reaching at least Level 25.

Given their current pace, achieving Level 20 to become Transcendent would take a considerable amount of time.

Wasn't it overly ambitious to research becoming the most powerful being in this world so soon after leaving the starter village?

Although it was early, the mention of ascending to godhood still quickened Lide's heartbeat.

“How did you figure it out?”

Emi looked at the curious gazes of the others, a hint of pride in her eyes.

“Ancestor Crown, I was originally an evangelist from the Knight Temple, but during an expedition to battle heretics, I was gravely injured and severely afflicted by shadow energy.

Later, by a stroke of luck, I joined the Underground Force of Green City — the Dark Contract. With the help of the leader of the Dark Contract, I changed my profession to become a Shadow Priest”

“After becoming a Shadow Priest, I gained the talent to traverse the Shadow Plane. I, too, grew accustomed to utilizing my talent.

One time inside the Knight Temple, while stepping into the Shadow Plane, my outer space coordinates were strangely altered due to the temple's influence.

I don't know why, but I stumbled into the Knight God's Divine Country.”

Whoosh~

At this, even Lide was stunned.

Broken into the Knight God's Divine Country? That was just absurd.

That was a divine being, the most powerful existence on this plane — and she, a mere professional of level teens, had managed to intrude?

“In that Divine Country, I felt the prayers of countless believers, the Power of Faith converging within the divine realm.”

Emi's eyes shone brightly, filled with fervor.

“It's an indescribable sensation; the foundation of Divine Power is its believers. And there, in the Knight God's Divine Country, I perceived how to extract the Power of Faith.”

This was fucked up.

Lide couldn't help but curse.

Not only had this person entered another's Divine Country, but she had also learned such crucial information — no wonder she had earned the title of blasphemer.

It would be strange if the Knight God could tolerate it.

“Later, the Knight God discovered my presence, but it seemed He was gravely injured and had no strength to strike.

Under the Knight God's Dignity, I had no choice but to flee. Luckily, I found the space coordinates that had just been disrupted by the Knight Temple.

After I escaped the Knight Temple, all the priests chased after me to kill me, and I sustained injuries that were nearly impossible to heal.

During my escape, I blended into a group of villagers, hoping to use their large numbers to confuse the Knight Temple's pursuit.

But by the Goddess of Luck's grace, those fleeing villagers were taken in by the Bloodline and brought to Dawn City, and since my injuries were too severe to flee, I became one of them as well.”

Finally, Emi briefly recounted the process by which she became a blasphemer.

After listening, Lide couldn't help but marvel at her good fortune.

Mortally wounded in battle, she managed to switch to a hidden class and gained talents related to shadows.

And using her talent in the Knight Temple, she accidentally entered the Divine's sanctum and–the most messed up part–she even discovered the method to ascend to godhood there.

That wasn't all; after escaping and avoiding being killed, she was brought to Dawn City by the Bloodline, and moreover, she became one of the Undead, obtaining eternal life.

Lide truly suspected this person was blessed by the Goddess of Luck, surviving time and again in the face of danger and still reaping so many benefits.

But now, all of this had become his, even Emi was his personal property.

The thought brought a radiant smile to his lips.

It wasn't such a bad thought after all.

“Is becoming a god about Believers?”

“Not exactly,” Emi shook his head, a hint of fanaticism flashing in his eyes. After learning of the method to ascend to godhood, he harbored an obsession–perhaps, he too could become one of those powerful beings.

After transitioning from a Priest of the Knight Temple to a Shadow Priest, he had lost his reverence for the Divine. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to probe with his spiritual power upon entering the Divine Country of the Knight Temple.

“The Divine must first spread the faith, then collect it, and finally condense the Power of Faith into Divine Power. When Divine Power reaches a certain density, one can ignite the Divine Fire and become a true Divine,”

Observing Emi's earnest expression, Lide pondered. Emi's description was simple, but none of it was easy to achieve.

First and foremost was the spreading of faith. On the Main Plane, humanity was the treasure of the various Divines, with the majority already having their own beliefs. The difficulty of spreading a new faith was unimaginably high.

And collecting faith, condensing it into Divine Power–just thinking about it was one thing, but to actually do it, Lide estimated that only those of Legendary Level had such ability.

“Alright, don't mention the matter of becoming a god to anyone. You may research it privately, and if you need any resources, you can apply to me,”

Lide said with utmost severity. The fewer people who knew about this, the better.

Although becoming a god was a desirable thing, it wasn't of much use to the Bloodline at the current stage–the topic was too advanced, beyond what they needed right now.

It was indeed getting ahead of oneself to dream of making a spaceship while still using stone tools.

However, allowing the other to continue researching might pay off in the future.

After receiving permission from Lide, Emi nodded excitedly, “Yes, Ancestor Crown, I will figure it out.”

Lide looked at his elated expression and shook his head. He didn't voice his doubts, thinking it was good as long as Emi was happy.

For the only high-end combat power of Level 15 within the Bloodline, a bit of tolerance was necessary.

Suddenly, Lide remembered something and gave Emi a reminder.

“The Holy Light Bloodline isn't the evil Vampire you have in mind. Spend some time learning the Bloodline's history with Harrison. Be very careful not to harm the humans of Dawn City.

They are our private property; the future of the Bloodline is now tied with these humans.

The better the humans develop, the stronger our Bloodline will become,”

Emi, who had already felt that the Bloodline was different from other Vampires, nodded contemplatively upon hearing Lide's words.

His gaze toward Lide also transformed.

“Are you saying we should utilize the strength of humans to develop the Bloodline?”

Seeing that Emi grasped the idea so quickly, Lide nodded with satisfaction. A Priest that had mingled in human society for decades really was different; his perspective was broad.

“Precisely, the Bloodline cannot develop alone.

The only safe way to strengthen the Bloodline is a strategy of sustainable development.

The future of Dawn City will undoubtedly adopt this strategy as well, where humans are the most critical resource, the very foundation of Dawn City.

Later on, you need to understand this in detail from Harrison–do nothing to damage our foundation.”

“Yes, Ancestor Crown.”

“That'll do. Communicate here; I'm leaving now.”

Once Lide had finished, he didn't linger and turned to leave.

After a busy day, he too felt a bit of fatigue, and he hadn't had the chance to thoroughly explore his recent leveling-up.

As for learning more about Emi and how he turned humans and Bloodline members into Shadow Priests–there was plenty of time for that, no need to rush. Right now, it was important to understand his own changes.

After more than a month, he had finally advanced from Level 10 to Level 11, which was no small feat.
