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

Chapter 40 Chapter39- Inherited Memories of The Devil

"This item is too precious...we can't simply use it to level up!"

Emma shook her head repeatedly.

"Johnny, you should keep this for yourself! As long as you're strong, you can protect us!"

John laughed,

"Me? I don't need to level up anymore. This is a gift for you two, just take it. I'm counting on both of you to become stronger and support me."

With a helpless look on her face, Emma turned to White Feather.

White Feather nodded and said, "Emma, I know this is valuable, but if we can quickly level up, then we wouldn't be letting down Galewind's expectations."

John said, "Ah, that's right, see, White Feather is sensible."

Hearing this, Emma pouted a bit and said,

"Johnny, are you saying I'm not sensible?"

As she spoke, she deliberately made a mischievous face, then put the Legendary "Silver Tear" from the table into her robe.

"Alright, since you said it's a gift, I'll accept it, and you're not allowed to take it back!"

John looked indifferent, "Of course I won't take it back."

...

Meanwhile, at the Respawn Pool in Westwind City.

Many players had surrounded Darklord and his rookies.

"You, the one who fused with The Devil's body and killed so many of our brothers, right?"

"Today you have to give an explanation, or you can't leave!"

"Yeah, yeah, all of us have lost a level, and we can't recover the Exp points without spending at least a few weeks! How are you going to compensate us for all these?"

"I think we should simply kill him once per person and downgrade him!"

"Killing him and downgrading him won't help. We won't be able to recover our losses. Let him compensate us!"

"Right, let him compensate us!"

Although the players were born in different places, in the Godslayer game, players would respawn at the nearest Respawn Point after death.

Westwind was the nearest city to the underground ruins, so all the players who died near the ruins respawned in the Respawn Pool in Westwind.

Darklord and his guild members were no exception.

Darklord looked very haggard, his face full of fear and disbelief as he looked at his attribute panel.

This time he was killed by John and lost 3 levels!

"Gale...Wind!!!!" Darklord gritted his teeth with anger, wishing he could tear John apart.

These 3 levels were hard-earned for him!

Now, just being killed by John this once, had made him fall out of the top players of his own guild!

The players surrounding Darklord heard him muttering a name to himself and thought he had lost his mind.

"Is he crazy after being possessed by The Devil?"

"I don't care if he's crazy or not, even if he's crazy he needs to compensate us!"

"Hey, Darklord, don't play dumb! Don't think you can end this by acting like this, you have to give us an explanation!"

In the crowd, the shouts got louder.

Just as things were about to get out of hand, the NPC guards of Westwind arrived.

These NPCs were all over level 100 and could instantly kill the current players.

Therefore, no players dared to misbehave in front of them.

"No gathering and causing trouble in Westwind!"

"If anyone attacks others unprovoked, we will arrest the attacker!"

The captain of the Westwind Guard shouted at the players.

Seeing that they could not do anything to Darklord in the city, the players left threatening words:

"Kid, remember this! Don't let me catch you outside the city!"

"Once we see you, our 'Dragonfall Guild' will definitely degrade your level again!"

"Yeah, we 'Night Bat Guild' won't let you off either!"

"Once we see you outside, you're going to regret it!" ...

After saying all this, these players reluctantly withdrew.

At this point, only Darklord and his guild members were left near the Respawn Pool.

"Damn, a bunch of opportunists," Darklord cursed,

"If I still had the power of The Devil, would these guys dare to be so arrogant in front of me? When I had the power of The Devil, they were so scared they didn't know where to run!"

Several of Darklord's trusted lieutenants tried to comfort him,

"Young master, shouldn't we just use the Westwind Teleportation Array to leave? It's too dangerous outside the city..."

Darklord cursed a few more times, then stubbornly said,

"I? afraid of them? Just a bunch of rabble! Go, call Soulsong and the other elite guild members over, I want to see who kills who!"

At this point, one of his subordinates came over and whispered to Darklord,

"Young master, Soulsong has already taken a leave of absence, he won't be online this week... After this incident, many members in our guild couldn't stand being targeted by other players. Seven out of our top ten elites have quit the guild."

Upon hearing this, Darklord froze for a moment.

Then he said, "A wise man knows when to retreat. Let's go to the teleportation array!"

"Worst case scenario... I'll just spend some more money and hire some even stronger players to join our guild!"

Darklord grumbled all the way to the city's teleportation array, leading his remaining rookies.

At this point, his resentment towards John had reached its peak.

Next...

He was going to get his revenge on John at any cost!

...

As Darklord and his members entered the teleportation array and left Westwind.

John, Emma, and White Feather also left Westwind.

The three of them each rode on horses purchased from the Trade Association, heading deep into the desert.

Emma, riding on her horse, asked John,

"Johnny, where are we going?"

John replied,

"To level you guys up."

White Feather said,

"I know of a Sandworm Lair nearby. It's not far and suitable for players above level 40... but it's close enough that we could just walk there. Why did we need to buy three horses?"

John smiled and said,

"We're not going there, the monsters there are too weak and the Exp gain is too little."

"The place I'm taking you to is a great place for leveling."

"Although the monsters there might be a little tough for you guys... but don't worry, I'm here, you guys will be fine."

Looking at John's confident face.

White Feather, for some reason, felt a sudden sense of unease.

An hour later.

The three of them finally stopped in the middle of the desert.

In front of them was an ancient and dilapidated building with strange words written in Demon Language.

There was a stone gate at the base of the building.

Though it's called a gate, you could see the desert on the other side of it, nothing else.

John got off his horse, led it to a shaded spot, then walked up to the stone door and said to the two ladies,

"The horses can stay here, when we come out after leveling, it will be more convenient to return with them."

"There's no teleportation array nearby, and without the horses, we wouldn't know how long we'd have to walk to find a town," John said.

White Feather and Emma nodded, dismounted their horses, and led them to a shaded area.

The game "Godslayer" can be said to simulate the real world 99.99%.

Even though these horses are just game data, if not taken care of properly and left in the sun, there's a high chance that when they come out.

There would only be three horse corpses left.

Both girls stood behind John, Emma, unable to suppress her curiosity, asked,

"Johnny, what place is this? How come we've never heard of such a place in the desert?"

John smiled slightly and said,

"Of course, you wouldn't know. The information that players can uncover in this game might not even amount to one in a million..."

"As for how I know, well, I have to keep that a secret."

The reason he chose to keep it a secret was not because he wanted to be pretentious, but because he couldn't tell them.

When he killed The Devil "Azazel" and escaped from the underground temple, John accidentally inherited some memories of this world from The Devil.

In the memories, a multitude of secrets were deeply etched into John's mind, making them impossible to forget.

Much of the information in itself was immensely valuable, each piece of data could sell for an astronomical price if auctioned in the auction house.

But at the same time, this knowledge itself had destructive power.

If regular players knew these secrets, they could at least suffer a sudden death and level downgrade.

Or at worst have their souls contaminated by the deep rules of this world, leading them on a path of no return.

Therefore, John was not planning to tell the two women any secret information until they were ready.
