Book 10: Chapter 61: Chaotic Divinity

After checking, Qin Lun quickly understood what team points were.

Besides temporary team emblems, formal Apostle teams started from the Black Iron level, then Bronze Team, followed by Silver and Gold.

Apostle team advancement required completing promotion missions, which Qin Lun had experienced once. That was when he avoided the forced invitation from Chaos and joined the Fortress Team, a peripheral team of the large Apostle Monument group “Sky Float,” on an adventure in the Toril World.

The Fortress Team was a temporary Silver Team at that time, possessing a team skill called “Sincerity Aura.” However, due to a major setback in the Toril World, the team now only had two remaining members, who were invited by Robin to join “Lost.”

Team points were not a necessary condition for team rank advancement, but they were the currency used to purchase and add team skills from the Star Void. After an Apostle team advanced to the Silver level, it automatically gained one team skill. To acquire additional team skills, the team either needed to advance to the Gold level or purchase them from the Star Void using these team points.

Qin Lun had never experienced the power of a team skill before. When he joined the Fortress Team, the members were not united, so the team skill “Sincerity Aura” was only available to a few people. In the Gospel World, due to special laws, even the team channel was sealed, so team skills could not be used at all.

However, Qin Lun thought that team skills should be quite effective, since they required an Apostle team to reach at least the Silver level.

Thinking of this, Qin Lun felt a bit helpless. In this mission world, he had actually performed very well. Most of the Patroller Team’s plans came from him. Despite competition from three other teams, he still managed to secure a 72% main storyline completion rate for the team. He also fought against two high-rank Apostles and did not end up at a disadvantage.

Unfortunately, when the Shattered Starry Sky calculated results, it valued outcomes over processes. The Star Void could not measure how many brain cells an Apostle used during the mission. As for his battles with the two high-rank Apostles, since there were no kills, no matter how well he performed, it could not be counted as an achievement.

Thinking about it this way, it made sense that the Star Void credited the achievements to the entire team, giving them 20 team points instead of granting him a personal Gold evaluation.

In fact, compared to most of Qin Lun’s efforts, his final reminder to Alex to destroy the seven Angel Bodies and his guidance for the Gith to form an alliance with the Insectoid race were the main contributors to his personal exploration rate reward.

Of course, the Patroller Team’s ability to obtain the Angel Bodies and Alex’s willingness to follow instructions were based on Qin Lun’s demonstrated ability and wisdom throughout the event, which earned the Gith’s trust. If Robin or any other Apostle had spoken, Alex might not have complied.

After selecting the reward options, the 35 points of Enhancement Energy Qin Lun obtained turned into countless points of light and merged into his Apostle Soul Mark.

Once the Apostle Soul Mark absorbed all the light points, Qin Lun glanced at his current law attributes and was shocked. His personal attributes improved significantly, far beyond what just 35 points of Enhancement Energy should have achieved.

Qin Lun immediately checked the related prompt information in the Death Notice but found no clear hints. The only information that could solve the mystery was a warning the Star Void gave him when he received the Final Gospel and obtained the Angel Body.

This warning message stated that the Apostle Soul Mark was washed by external law force, the Elf Bloodline and Demon Bloodline were affected by the unknown, and the Law Body attributes were improved.

At that time, Qin Lun thought this attribute improvement was only related to the Angel Body. He didn’t expect this influence to remain even after they left the Gospel World.

The benefits the Final Gospel gave to the Law Body were greater than the improvement from the 35 points of Enhancement Energy. These two enhancements caused a huge change in Qin Lun’s Law Body.

Name: Qin Lun; Apostle Number: 70053; Combat Profession: Fallen Hunter; Hunter Titles: Frost, Demon

Bloodline: Ancient Moonlight Elf (Reversion), High-Rank Fallen Angel (Demonic), Chaotic Divinity (Weak, involving Life, Soul and Death, Creation domains)

Title: 279/573 Contribution Points, Second Tier Fifth Level (Custom Qin State Military Merit Title: Dafu)

Soul Lifespan: 200/200; HP 2320, Energy Points 2775

Explosive Power 88 (+7) points, Agility 86 (+17) points, Constitution 90 (+8) points, Perception 80 (+19) points, Mental Will 73 (+26) points, Protection 40 (16) points (Values in brackets are equipment bonuses)

Qin Lun’s original low-rank Demon Hunter profession had high Agility and high Perception, while Explosive Power, Constitution, and Mental Will were weak points. However, due to his potential mental issues, Qin Lun paid great attention to strengthening his Mental Will, so it was slightly higher than his Explosive Power and Constitution.

Yet, after the transformation by the Final Gospel, Agility, Perception, and Mental Will only saw minor improvements, while Explosive Power and Constitution increased to an incredible level. Explosive Power rose by 18 points, and Constitution increased by 28 points, turning them from the lowest to the highest attributes.

Qin Lun quickly understood. When he had the Angel Body in the Gospel World, he could block Gan Luo’s Mantis Blade arms with his angel wings. As a Martial Artist, Gan Luo’s Explosive Power was definitely one of his top attributes, and his Mantis Body could destroy almost anything.

The fact that Qin Lun could withstand Gan Luo with an unfamiliar Angel Body was partly due to the Chaos deputy leader overusing law force leading to body breakdown, but also because the Angel Body’s Explosive Power and Constitution attributes were extremely strong.

In contrast, he had wings but could not fly fast, and he moved through hilly forests but could not escape Gan Luo’s tracking, showing that the Angel Body’s Agility and Perception attributes were quite average.

Now, although Qin Lun had shed the Angel Body, his Law Body was influenced by it, so his Explosive Power and Constitution naturally increased significantly. The slight increases in Agility, Perception, and Mental Will were probably due to the 35 points of Enhancement Energy.

Calculating it, Agility, which was originally the highest, now ranked only third. HP increased by nearly 700 points, and Energy Points increased by about 500 points. This change was even greater than the body transformation he got from fusing two high-rank bloodlines.

Influenced by the Final Gospel, Qin Lun’s two Apostle bloodlines also evolved. The Moonlight Elf Bloodline began to revert, becoming an Ancient Elf. The Ice Flame Demon Bloodline merged with the Fallen Angel Bloodline, turning into a Demonic High-Rank Fallen Angel.

What interested Qin Lun the most was the appearance of Chaotic Divinity in his bloodline. This should be the World Law once comprehended by the Angel Race, which was the essence of the Final Gospel.

Qin Lun guessed that this so-called Chaotic Divinity was a mixed World Law.

No wonder the Angel Race was confident they could revive and establish a divine kingdom using the Final Gospel. The Life, Death, Soul, and Creation domains contained within the Chaotic Divinity basically covered the most fundamental aspects of a world-creating pantheon. As long as they obtained a large amount of faith power, even if it was only weak divinity, it should be enough to condense a divine spark and succeed in godhood.

However, having such a divine law added to his bloodline, along with his combat profession changing from low-rank Demon Hunter to Fallen Hunter, made Qin Lun unsure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

The subsequent advancements for the Demon Hunter profession could be found in the Apostle Soul Mark’s data, proving that there were precedents from Second Order to Legendary. But the Fallen Hunter, formed by the fusion of Ancient Elf and Fallen Angel, was likely the only case in the Shattered Starry Sky from ancient times to now, completely lacking a reference template for advancement.

Because he was currently in the Dimensional Space, Qin Lun did not manifest his Law Body, so he did not yet know if his hunter talents had specific changes. He thought there should be no side effects.

Putting aside his worries about the unknown changes, Qin Lun was quite satisfied with his current body attributes.

Originally, he only had strength close to peak Second Order when using Demon Transformation. But now, with the attribute boost from the Iron Cross First Class, even without Demon Transformation, he almost closed the gap in body attributes with those veteran Second Order experts.

After checking the enhancement effects, Qin Lun turned his attention to the previously sealed Storage Space. He found that except for changes in the Shattered Crystal, everything else remained the same, but there was an additional Advancement Profession Certificate and a bottle of Angel Race Bloodline Item.
