Chapter 1219: Chapter 101: Velen Falls! Godslayer!

The concept of occupation is used to limit mortals.

For powerful Divine Spirits, occupation progression is merely a method to wield their power. If they want, they can switch to different occupation systems at any time.

The power exhibited by the Gloomy Maiden Elise at this moment is already beyond the normal scope of an occupier.

Elise often wandered the mortal world in many incarnations. Her most frequently used form was that of a Level 30 Minstrel, but occasionally she also used an incarnation with a Level 25 Priest. Besides that, Elise also possesses the abilities of a Legendary Ranger and a Legendary Warrior (Sword Dancer).

Her nature is quite similar to how Duncan switches occupation systems in his Human Form.

By activating whichever power she masters, the incarnation gains the corresponding occupation level, and the more power you infuse, the higher the occupation level of the incarnation.

But there’s still a significant difference between the Divine Spirit’s true form and its incarnation.

At this moment, Elise, who has fallen into the trap, exhibits powers that simultaneously encompass Minstrel, Priest, Warrior, and Ranger abilities, with each occupation additionally enhanced by her own Divine Format, Divine Position, and Domain Law.

The Divine Format level is like a buff, allowing the Divine Spirit to strengthen any occupation they master.

Elise showcases her Minstrel stance in battle, which best allows her to manifest her divine duties of song, dance, beauty, and swordsmanship. The Minstrel’s casting ability can summon moonfire; as her naked form dances, moonfire ignites around the Moon Sword, instantly forcing Velen to retreat.

Velen, meanwhile, lurks like a phantom in the shadows. The short sword in his hand effortlessly breaches Elise’s Divine Power shield, leaving a horrifying wound on the Gloomy Maiden’s abdomen, though the wound quickly heals under divine technique.

Dimensional level.

Duncan’s true form will is observing the battle between the Divine Spirits from a God’s perspective, making judgment and assessment of their true strength.

"Elise has learned too much."

"Using Minstrel as her core occupation, compared to Velen’s wanderer abilities, she is at a disadvantage in battle."

Behind Duncan, an enormous power of laws is frantically calculating, forming a stream of data resembling a nebula.

"Parsing the true strength of the Divine Spirit."

"Activate the Law of Cause and Effect calculation!"

"Gloomy Maiden - Elise, Weak Divine Power, Divine Format level 7, her displayed strength is equivalent to a Level 36 Minstrel, Level 32 Priest, Level 29 Ranger, Level 28 Warrior."

"Lord of Masks - Velen, Weak Divine Power, Divine Format level 9, his displayed strength is equivalent to a Level 42 Wanderer, Level 35 Warrior, Level 29 Priest."

Duncan can only estimate the true strength of the Divine Spirits, which means their occupation abilities after stripping away the Divine Spirit templates.

Elise’s highest occupation level should be a Level 29 Minstrel, which indicates that she hasn’t really leveled up properly, wasting her energy elsewhere, relying entirely on the Divine Format to support near-max level occupier battle prowess.

This kind of Divine Spirit who learns too much is fine against mortals, as they can suppress with multiple occupation abilities, but it’s not as effective against Divine Spirits.

In comparison, Velen has delved deeper into the field of the wanderer, and even without Divine Position Divine Format, by wanderer strength alone, he can handle most demigods.

Having more occupation abilities isn’t always better.

For instance, the War God - Tempus, strictly speaking, only has one occupation, a Level 40 pure Warrior, plus the basic Divine Spirit abilities of a Level 20 Priest, but when combined with his Divine Format level 18, he can exhibit the strength of a Level 58 Warrior, Level 38 Priest, enough to crush two weak Divine Powers with one hand.

Even without using Divine Format Divine Position powers, purely by his combat prowess, the War God - Tempus can defeat a large group of miscellaneous gods.

After all, he became the War God by slaughtering all other contenders for the divine position of battle and war.

"The Spider Queen has not acted, no way to parse through the power of laws."

Duncan waits.

Waiting for Spider Queen Rose’s power to manifest, as she has yet to reveal her health bar, currently Duncan doesn’t even know what kind of occupational power she possesses.

Divine Spirit is merely an additional template, because of different Divine Position Laws, Divine Format levels, augmented with various abilities, including Extraordinary Divine Power, but this is commonality. However, Divine Position can be changed, but the ability before ascending to divinity cannot, this is the groundwork for Duncan to assess Spider Queen Rose’s prowess.

Just like the Death God Kelemvor, who was a warrior as a mortal, so even after ascending to godhood, his grasp of spells wasn’t that strong, preferring to enhance his warrior occupation with Divine Format power, manifesting directly to slash people.

In the few recorded actions of Kelemvor, almost no instance shows him casting spells, at most using the priest casting ability provided by the Death God format.

No matter how strong Kelemvor is, it doesn’t change his nature as a warrior.

When mortals face Divine Spirits, besides forcing them to reveal their health bars, at least you need to know what their pre-divine occupation abilities were, otherwise, you wouldn’t even know if the Divine Spirit’s main role is melee or spellcasting and it would be suicide.
