Once he read through them all, Krune realized that even the Supreme Monsters from Layer 3 would only be as strong as a Demon Lord in Layer 2. A Demon Lord was just a Tier 2 Demon, almost at the bottom of the chain.
As for the awarded Godly Points, a Demon King awarded 1 Godly Point, a Demon Emperor awarded 5 Godly Points, a Supreme Demon awarded 10 Godly Points, and a Demon God awarded 100 Godly Points.
Based on what they had witnessed and recorded, there were three Demon Gods in total. Each had enough power to create a calamity, enough to destroy an entire city on its own. The only reason a Demon God never attacked a city directly was unknown.
If they hadn't been witnessed a couple of times on the battlefields silently lurking around in a corner, they would have been treated as pure myth.
.
Krune then read through a book that talked about the items one could buy using Godly Points. There were five items in total. And when he read through the list, he was left confused since it was written that the fifth item was unknown. It always appeared as blank on every tablet.
There was a place called the Central City Altar. It wasn't within the city but was actually situated somewhere in the water column. The water column was simply addressed as the Water Column. It seemed that, for some reason, a name hadn't been given to it.
Krune wasn't bothered about that fact. He was rather interested in the items.
[Dome of Protection (1-kilometer radius: 10 Godly Points) (100-kilometer radius: 1000 GP) (300-kilometer radius: 10000 Godly Points)]
'Why don't you rip me off even further while you're at it?' Krune mentally cursed at that price tag. After all, a Dome of Protection only filtered out the miasma. It didn't do anything beyond that. Not only that, but suppose a demon was within the Dome of Protection. Even with the dome's effects, it was still able to produce miasma within, turning the filter useless.
It was only because it was used by the cities situated above the Abyssal Trench that they were useful. Otherwise, they were simply useless. After all, even after being bought, they had to be powered up by Demon Cores constantly based on the filtering expenditure.
In short, they were an endless money pit.
[Water Essence: 1 Godly Point]
'Another rip-off!' Krune clenched his fist as even though the cost of the Water Essence was the same as Layer 3, the value of a Godly Point here was way higher. For something like Water Essence, it was simply too expensive.
However, as he read about how there were no ways to heal people with severe wounds without it, he eventually understood, even if he didn't wish to accept the price. Humans didn't seem to have any ability to heal wounds on Layer 2. They only had to heal their wounds naturally, which was no different to a mortal human.
So, if someone had severed limbs, unless they consumed Water Essence, they would have to live with a disability for life. Moreover, Krune understood that the Water Essence sold here was no different from that on Layer 3.
In any case, it was only able to regenerate limbs for Tier 1 humans. The higher the Tier, the lower the healing effect. Since it had to regenerate their dense bodies, the healing effect was used up rather quickly.
To regenerate the limbs for someone at Tier 5, Krune was unable to come up with an estimate for the number of Water Essences that might be required. It made him gaze at his hand, watching the blue beam of light it emitted. It was the healing effect from his Ocean Heart.
[Essence Generator: 10 Godly Points]
Krune focused on this, finally feeling that it was worth its price. This Essence Generator was the most important tool that formed the core of Layer 2. Its function was to absorb a Demon Core and create an Essence that could be consumed.
This Essence worked in upgrading the physique. The greater the Tier of the Demon Core, the more potent the produced Essence turned out to be. Due to the cost of Godly Points involved, only prominent warrior families possessed an Essence Generator.
The general populace had to use the Essence Generator of the city, albeit paying a cost for each use.
[Godly Summon: 100 GP]
'Another rip-off.' Krune snorted, for the Godly Summon condensed the projection of a God supposedly on the summoner. According to what it said, it retained some power that could be used by the summoner to do anything.
Krune immediately figured out that the so-called God was basically the projection of a First Stage Godly Fusion Realm cultivator. He realized that to a mortal, a Godly Fusion Realm cultivator was no different from a God.
Only at the God Realm was a Godly Fusion Realm cultivator an absolute weakling. It seemed that the Godly Summon brought in a small amount of power from a Godly Fusion Realm cultivator. Then again, the powers mostly involved were shooting out fireballs and stuff.
In actuality, Godly Energy wasn't actually used. It seemed that the Godly Summon relied on a sacrifice to function. Basically, by absorbing the energy in the bodies of humans used as a sacrifice, the Godly Summon would use it to unleash a myriad of abilities cultivators possessed.
To the humans that only possessed a strong body, this was a feat of the gods. 'Maybe that's why they were freaked out by me? No, if they simply thought of me using a Godly Summon, their tone shouldn't have been violent towards me at all.'
Krune could not help but snort after that. "Well, I'm inclined to proceed with my first impression. No way in hell am I ever helping the people of this city."
As the fifth wasn't known to the people, Krune realized that among the remaining four items, only one had any actual worth. He then sighed, double-tapping his glabella, seeing that there was no reaction. "Unfortunately for me, that Raka took my tablet with her. Unless I get that, I won't be able to use my Godly Points."
He sighed, thinking, 'I have to get stronger first before hoping to get back my tablet. She also has my Monster Gecko skin armor. It's too precious to leave in her hands.'
