Chapter 39: A Visitor from the Tianli Church

When Lynn returned to the manor, it was already evening.

At this time, the moon was high in the sky, and the last ray of sunset was faintly visible.

However, the manor was brightly lit.

To be honest, the Augusta family is quite powerful in the local area, as they can build such a mansion in the most prosperous area of ​​Orne City.

After returning to the manor, Lynn wanted to find a maid to take him in, but unexpectedly, he met Morris.

"You're back?"

For some reason, he was still a little reserved.

Lin En nodded: "I want to see Her Royal Highness, can you lead the way?"

Hearing this, Morris hesitated.

But thinking about how much Her Royal Highness the Princess valued this guy, he immediately agreed.

As he led the way, he kindly said, "Her Royal Highness was meeting a guest just now, and she seemed to be in a bad mood. If there is nothing urgent to report, I advise you not to get into trouble."

"Who did you meet?"

Lynn was curious.

Morris looked around and then lowered his voice and said, "It looks like they are from the Tianli Church."

Tenli Church?

It was the church that his predecessor originally believed in, but in the end, the archbishop deprived him of the divine gene in his body and he became an ordinary person.

As one of the three major churches in the empire, the Tenri Church is on par with the Church of Silence and the Church of Plenty, and has countless believers.

Even in border cities like Orne, they can be found.

Lynn's eyes narrowed.

But he pretended to be nonchalant: "I am going to report on my work, there shouldn't be any problem."

"Reporting?" Morris glanced at the contract in his hand and showed a trace of sympathy. "You must be very busy today. Is three days too short? I would like to ask Your Highness to give me a few more days?"

"Then you can say a few nice words at that time. With His Highness's kindness to you, there is a high probability that he will allow it."

"If you ask me, this matter is indeed troublesome. Right now is a time of great turmoil, and there are countless eyes watching. If we don't handle it well, we will probably be put on the fire."

Morris chattered.

Hearing this, Lin En shook his head: "You misunderstood, I have completely resolved this matter, and now I am preparing to report to His Highness."

Morris braked suddenly and stopped. "Solved?"

Lin En didn't say anything, just dusted the stack of contracts in his hand and handed it over.

With the help of the light, Morris quickly flipped through the extraordinary contract in his hand, his mouth gradually opening wider.

"His Highness is meeting guests now, Master Lin En, please go to the next room and wait for a while."

As expected, Lynn saw Keisha at the door of the study.

The elderly housekeeper bowed slightly and spoke calmly.

Lynn nodded and sat on the sofa in the adjacent lounge.

The housekeeper made him a cup of hot tea and left him here alone.

Seeing that there was no one around, Lin En opened the system and prepared to study the new abilities he had just drawn today.

Crown of thorns.

Although the effect is that this ability kills one thousand enemies but injures eight hundred of your own men, the skill introduction does not mention that there is an upper limit to the pain that can be stored.

As we all know, abilities without upper limits are often extremely buggy.

So after careful consideration, Lynn decided to give it a try.

The activation condition of the Crown of Thorns is that one must have at least 3 divine factors, which was not a problem for Lin En before.

It’s a pity that he doesn’t have such conditions now and is just an ordinary person.

According to the setting in the novel, the divine factor is a reward given by the gods to believers after each completion of the advancement trial set by the gods, which can greatly enhance their strength.

To put it simply, it is roughly equivalent to the blue bar and ability bonus.

The quantity and quality of the divine factors determine the number of times you can use your abilities and the effects they produce.

The original body was a fourth-order transcendent at the time, possessing 136 divine factors, which was extremely powerful.

Not only that, he also possesses a very rare supernatural power - the Gravity Hammer.

This is a very destructive capability on the battlefield.

It was by virtue of this that the original body accumulated a large amount of military merit in a short period of time and was promoted to the rank of captain, the youngest in the empire.

It’s a pity that his painting style is a bit distorted now.

Not only does he not have any powerful attack skills, but the only two abilities he has are a bit off the mark, making him either a swindler or a masochist.

I always feel that my fighting style is gradually changing from bold and aggressive to insidious and perverted.

Lynn sighed.

He clicked on the divine factor column in the system interface.

After all, the system had said before that he could spend points to ignite the divine factor.

This is undoubtedly the greatest good news for Lin En, who has been deprived of his faith.

You know, the biggest factor that limits the extraordinary people's ability to become stronger is the quantity and quality of the divine factors.

The divine factor from the fourth-level extraordinary person of the Tianli Church is undoubtedly extremely rare and powerful.

That's why his fiancée Irina transplanted the divine gene in his body to him, and he was eventually promoted to a legendary powerhouse.

[Do you want to spend 10 system points to ignite a divine factor? ]

"yes."

Lynn confirmed without hesitation.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

I earned so many points in one afternoon just for this moment.

His escape plan could finally begin to be put into action.

While everyone thought he had become an ordinary person, he was accumulating strength in secret. It felt so good.

But it's really expensive, one divine factor costs 10 points.

Lynn thought silently.

Unexpectedly, he received a prompt from the system the next second.

[Ignition failed, please activate faith first. 】

Failed? Lin En stared at the small words in a daze.

Then he remembered something.

[Name: Lin En]

[Race: Human]

Age: 17

【Faith: None】

[Rank: None]

[Supernatural Ability: Lie Eater, Level 1/Crown of Thorns, Level 2]

[Divine Factor: 0]

[Remaining system points: 43]

Since the predecessor was kicked out of the Tianli Church, the faith column shows "none" at this moment.

However, the divine factor was born from the support of God, and the system could not create a source of power out of thin air. Therefore, Lin En was unable to successfully ignite the divine factor.

It seems that I have to choose a new belief.

But here comes the problem.

After his predecessor lost his faith, he was branded as a God-forsaken person by the Tianli Church and this was also registered with all the major churches.

In this situation, no one would accept his conversion.

Unless it is a cult belief or a small, unknown church.

But these beliefs are too weak, some are not even gods, they are just slightly more powerful extraordinary beings who are stealing the power of faith.

As mentioned before, the divine factors bestowed by different gods have different properties and strengths.

For example, the supernatural beings from the three major mainstream churches, if they possess the same number of divine factors, are definitely much stronger than the supernatural beings from other beliefs.

This is mainly reflected in attack power, combat endurance and other aspects, and will have a far-reaching impact on the future.

Although Lin En has a system that can extract abilities at will, he does not want to be weaker than others in terms of divine factors.

For him, it's either not doing it or doing it to the best of your ability.

For a moment, Lynn fell into deep thought.

He began to recall the original plot, trying to see if he could find any clues.

Think carefully, who is the strongest belief and god in the original work? As soon as this thought came to Lin En's mind, a cold female figure suddenly emerged.

It seems to be that woman.

Damn, this is a vicious cycle.
