《Armipotent 》Chapter 235: Making a Deal With Gods
Advertisement
"Huhuhu, it seems I guess correctly. You want the information so you can prepare for the worst when The Game starts. The reason you don't stop what you are doing right now is to prepare for The Game so the people of this world are prepared to face the worst," Tang Shaoyang made a rough guess but the Goddess Rubia responded with silence.
"Radiant Temple is the place where The Gods reside, I see what you are trying to achieve by building the temple," he nodded while rubbing his chin, "When the game starts, you will guide them through the temple you have built so the chance of your people's survival is bigger."
Rubia was still not responding to what he said. However, he took her silence as yes.
—These Gods are quite smart or maybe they can reveal themselves when The Game starts to maintain the world's order.
Zowen praised The Gods, that was a solid plan to face the disaster.
'No, these Gods are pitiful, their fate is sealed–' Tang Shaoyang paused as he realized something.
—What? Why? Don't stop half-way like that.
Zowen was curious what the man thought of, why the Gods were so pitiful.
'Either they will cease to exist or they will be locked up so they can get involved with the game. Their existence could break the balance of the game, just like the weapons and technology we have on earth that could easily wipe the zombies out with a nuclear bomb that instantly vanish, and our country's military is also instantly taken down,' Tang Shaoyang explained, 'These Gods have the power they should not have possessed, and they are aware of that.'
—If they are Gods, why should they be afraid of this system? They should have fought their way with the system instead.
'That's what they did, but they lack information about the system. They wanted some information from me, but they were asking the wrong person. I don't even understand a single thing about the system,'

'Ah, I see, everything makes sense now. They shared the blessings, skill, and activated the part of the system with their authority not to help the people of this world, but for themselves. They want the people of this world to get an early start so they can help the thing, so-called Gods, later on. Even though they know the risk, they keep bestowing the blessing instead of stopping.'
—Then better not get involved with them, that's the best choice. Don't get involved with the thing you can't handle.
Zaneos advised Tang Shaoyang to stay away from these Gods. The system was not something these Gods could fight, let alone Tang Shaoyang who was much weaker than these Gods.
'Nah, this should be safe for me. The information that I will share is the thing that I have experienced, it is the thing I am supposed to know. I don't break the rule or break the balance unless I make a bond with these Gods or become their allies. I want my blessing, they can get the useless information. It was a trade, a deal. Moreover, the system sent us here despite the existence of the Gods, meaning the system has expected us to make contact with these Gods. As long as I don't cross the line, I should be safe.'
Tang Shaoyang shared his thoughts with his spirits. Zaneos was convinced by his explanation. The silence was the proof of the Demon Swordsman's agreement.
—He has the point, and if the second class truly exists, we can't miss this chance.
Zowen supported Tang Shaoyang's theory.
"Then are you willing to share the information about the game with us?" After a moment of silence, the Goddess started the conversation with a request.
"I can share the information, but that's not for free. In exchange for the information, I want the Supreme Blessing. That's the deal, take it or leave it," Tang Shaoyang grinned.

"Then how are we supposed to know you are telling the truth, mortal!?" The male voice interrupted the conversation.
"You are Gods, you should know whether I am telling the truth or not, right?" His words received silence as the reply, telling him these Gods could not find out whether he was lying or not.
'In the end, they are humans with more power than mine,' Thought Tang Shaoyang upon realizing the Gods were not as omnipotent as he thought to be, "Then what about we draft a contract? I also don't believe you, the self-proclaimed God."
"You–" the male's voice was cut off by Rubia, "Shut up!" The neutral voice overpowered the male voice. The male God seemed to be afraid or his status was lower than the Goddess of Harmony as he stopped talking.
"Let's draft the contract," Rubia agreed with the proposal. A leather skin with words suddenly appeared on the table. It was the contract drafted by the Gods, stating he has to tell everything he knew about The Game in exchange for the Supreme Blessing.
"I am sorry, but I don't agree with the contract," He pointed at the single clause, it was a single clause but they could ask everything they wanted including his secret, the spirits, and more that related to The Game.
"First, I will tell you about the state of my world before and after the Game. Second, I will tell you how the system governs my world. Third, I will tell you about the hideous monster that appears in my world. That's what you want to know, right? You want to know what the 'actual' game looks like, how is it, do we have the deal?" Tang Shaoyang proposed a new contract.
To his surprise, the Gods did not negotiate the contract. The leather skin vanished and a new leather skin appeared magically, the contract drafted based on his will.
"Ah, I also want my Supreme Blessing first before I tell you guys my story. Since you guys are Gods, I don't know if you have the power to null the contract, to be safe, I want my blessing first!"
A new clause appeared in the contract. He took the new contract, after making sure there was no trap in the contract, he bit his thumb and signed the contract with his blood, 'My teeth are still tougher than my skin,' such a random thought appeared in his head.
The leather skin glowed brightly for a moment. After a while, the glow died down. He picked the contract and noticed eight more thumbprints beside his thumbprint. That meant the eight Gods had signed the contract.
"Since the contract has been signed, then let's start with the blessing," Tang Shaoyang's grin was getting wider. Right after he finished his words, the surrounding started to get brighter. Not long after that, he felt a warm flow entering his body through his head.
[You have received Supreme Blessing!]
A notification rang in his head, after the notification, he was presented with four choices.
[Divine Equipment] [Second Class] [Bloodline] [Second Talent]
[Please choose the blessing you want!]
Tang Shaoyang was surprised but also delighted with the choices. However, now he was in a dilemma. He was clear with the [Second Class], [Divine Equipment], and [Second Talent]. But what about [Bloodline], Arina told him nothing about the choices, or 'The choice is only available for Supreme Blessing?'

Xianxia Online (A LitRPG Progression Fantasy)
When Earth falls to ruin and humanity’s survival is at stake, all of mankind is forced to enter the fantasy universe of the world’s hottest VRMMORPG, Xianxia Online. To uphold law and order, past players’ profiles were erased and forced to start anew, while law enforcers and authority figures such as government officials were granted powerful positions right off the start. After all, this was a world where dog eats dog, and the weak are cruelly left behind. Xuan, alias Zero, had been the top player and a legendary figure on the leaderboards of the game when the news struck. He had been mere inches away from being the first player cultivator to ever enter Godhood, but now, everything he had once possessed—divine weapons, legendary artifacts, and mythical beasts for pets—was gone, along with his thousands of years of cultivation. Having always been a lone wolf and remained anonymous, this reset hit him harder than most players, who could comfortably rely on others for help when needed. But no matter. The path of cultivation was riddled with challenges and hardships—since when did he let something as trivial as this stop him? He may have lost all of his riches, but he still had the most powerful weapons of all by his side—knowledge and experience. Combine that with the various secret treasure stashes he had around the world of Xianxia Online, and his climb back to the pinnacle of strength would be inevitable. Very soon, he will rise to the top again, and crush those who dared to try and tie him down. This game was mankind's world now. And he... was the apex predator. Witness as Xuan climbs his way back to the peak of cultivation and dominates everyone else in existence! ***** Remember that more chapters can be found on Webnovel!

Super Sekken (An Action Shonen Story)
This is the author’s first story ever written. It may not be great, but do check it out, and I hope you enjoy! I’m currently working on its sequel. Hope. Courage. Self-value. Friends. These all were traits that former junior high soccer champion and first year Miyuki Sekken had none of until she first walked into the doors of her local High School. Despite being a sports athlete phenomenon in her school district, Miyuki dreaded its attention, and even quit her career in pursuit of living a simplistic daily routine. This daily routine would be inevitably interrupted when she chooses to 'branch out' by talking to people. Whether it be a chance of bad luck, fate, or karma, Sekken ends up speaking to someone who was unknowingly suffering from a curse: a curse that causes anyone who tries to get close to them to disappear. Miyuki Sekken would be the next victim, finding herself face-to-face against a once-thought mythical mafia. This gang is not just any gang either, but one who is run solely by the school students of Maguro High, who hold secrets to powers unheard of by the world. How will this first year survive? Will she conquer her anxiety and thwart the gang's vicious rule? Or will she end up losing more than she could have imagined? P.S. I am not a good drawer, so I use Picrews and photo editors to get the general idea for my characters' designs. Rights to the Picrews used go to their respective authors.
