Chapter 166: Divine Gifting

South Coast, Viper Island.

The Dragonhead Battleship was docked near the former base camp of Sauron, and the traces of the fire on Viper Island could be seen from afar, the entire camp was reduced to ashes, and a mast was erected near the dock, on which something seemed to be hanging, drifting with the howling sea breeze. A large number of seabirds gathered near the docks, and when the battleship approached, they were immediately startled, and the blackened flocks of birds scattered in all directions, revealing the corpses hanging from the masts.

All of them were Sauron's men.

Viper Island fell, and these people became captives and were then hanged on these masts by the men of the pirate king Asrod.

This is not only a provocation to Sauron.

"Your Excellency the Throat Cutter!"

When he saw the corpses of his men being hung from the mast one by one for the seabirds to peck at, Scarface's expression became excited again. His face was hideous and distorted, his eyes were bloodshot and red, and he had a completely selective expression.

Sauron patted him on the shoulder to soothe him, then said in a deep voice, "Send a team to put the body down and bury it." We'll make them pay. ”

"Set sail!"

"To Port Taylor."

Just as Sauron was about to lead the fleet to the port of Taylor, an eerie whimper suddenly sounded from the bottom of the sea nearby.

Sauron seems to feel something!

As if something was calling to him, he waved for the others to stop, and then jumped into the sea with a thud.

There are many things underneath the azure waters.

Because of a great battle, you can see a lot of shipwrecks on the bottom of the sea, but the thing that calls Sauron is in the depths of the seabed, and that feeling makes him a little familiar.

"It's it!"

Sauron finally saw the creature calling to him, the mutated killer whale that he had subdued and driven, its body was partially rotten, its abdomen was densely wounded, its rotting flesh attracted many sea creatures, and even a spear was inserted near its chest.

It should have died a long time ago with such an injury!

Sauron noticed that the sides of its body had been shaved off large swaths of flesh. I don't know if it's because of the mutation or something else, it still retains quite an amazing ability to recover, even if the wound has rotted a lot, it still maintains a weak life character. Many ships have sunk in its vicinity, including medium-sized warships, and it can be seen that the pirate king Asrod has paid a lot of price to deal with it, and it is not easy to kill such a sea monster in the sea.

As Sauron drew closer, the sense of calling became faint.

The killer whale's body was mostly sunk into the sand, and its body was crawling with all kinds of marine parasites, some of which had even burrowed into its flesh.

Such an injury is too severe!

Unless there is a high-ranking priest performing a recovery spell. Otherwise, it is basically impossible to save it.

Sauron quickly approached the killer whale, he drew his scimitar and slashed the arrow, then gritted his teeth and pulled out the spear near its chest, then took out several bottles of healing potions and poured them into its mouth. The effect of the healing potion is too weak, and as a mutated sea creature, the killer whale has quite an amazing vitality, and in turn, the amount of recovery required to treat it is even more amazing.

"Damn it!"

As Sauron pulled out that deadly spear, large streams of blood gushed out, and the mutant killer whale's breath grew weaker and weaker.

Without a high-ranking priest, no one can do anything about this injury!

It's been holding on for a long time. There was no way to heal it in this case, and even with its sheer size, Sauron couldn't transport it back to Port Taylor because of the slightly more strenuous exercise. It could have cost it its life.

"Damn Asrod!"

Sauron's eyes showed a strong killing intent, he slowly pulled out his scimitar, and walked in front of the mutant killer whale with an expressionless face, the world under the sea was very dark. The ice died shone slightly because of the cold temperature. Sauron squatted down and stroked its head, then said slowly, "Rest in peace!" ……”

Such an injury.

It's also torture to keep it strong, but it's better to give it a relief now.

Sonorous!

Sauron's scimitar raised. However, it did not fall, but stayed ten centimeters above.

Because a row of information appeared in front of his eyes.

"Divinity activated! ……”

"Target creature's attitude toward you is Fanatic, triggers the Divine Gift condition, and automatically acquires the new ability [Divine Gift]! ……”

"Weak divinity activated! ……”

"Some of the gods are transforming their attributes! …… There is no Godhead in the target! …… The transformation of the number of gods has failed! ……”

………………

A strange number jΓΉ prompt emerged.

Sauron stopped his scimitar in an instant, and at the same time opened the page of the number of jΓΉ, checking for this somewhat strange information that suddenly appeared.

"Divine Bestow [Innate Ability]: You can bestow a portion of your divinity on a target, which can greatly strengthen the target's strength and transform it into a divine creature. After completing the Divine Grant, the target creature will have a mental connection with you, at least as much as Suggestion, and you will be able to influence and even manipulate the target's will. In the case of divine gifts, you can target as a temporary host, as your mortal incarnation of the Sage [requires divine form]. ”

[Note: Because you are not in the form of a god, you can only grant divinity to the target of fanatical worship of you!] 】

………………

Divinity?!

There was a hint of shock on Sauron's expression, and then as if he had thought of something, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

"Voters? Sage? ”

Sauron glanced at the dying mutant killer whale in front of him, his expression slightly hesitant, but then pressed his hand on the top of its head. Divinity is a very powerful force, and the gods can give some of their divine power and part of their divinity to their followers, and these people who hold the power of the gods are the legendary elect and saints. This kind of giving does not necessarily need to be done in the believers, because Golia's mother was able to suddenly advance to the rank of Legendary Witch because she received the divine gift of the Succubus Queen.

This is a very domineering ability!

Because once you receive the power from the gods, you are tantamount to being branded.

This can be seen from the body of the Fear God Son, because they are not actively given by the gods, but the will of the fear demon god has a huge impact on them, if they take the initiative to obtain the gift of divine power, then the final result is very likely to be transformed into a fanatical believer of the gods!

- "Divine Gift!" ”

A strange light appeared in Sauron's eyes, and the space around him was slightly distorted, and his whole person seemed to be shrouded in divine power, looking like he was looking down on the gods of the mortal world. As his palm pressed against the mutant orca's body, a trace of divine power seeped into its body and soul, and then Sauron developed a faint mental connection. It was as if he was teleporting, and he could switch his consciousness to the mutant orca in front of him at any time.

He could even use its vision for a while if he wanted to!

- "The Holy One is the eye of the gods!" ”

As Sauron injected 1 point of divinity into the mutant killer whale in front of him, astonishing changes began to appear, its weak heartbeat gradually became stronger and more powerful, and its decayed body regained its amazing vitality. Some of the injuries began to regenerate, and the mutated killer whale, which had already entered a near-death state, struggled to swim up as if it had returned to light, and then opened its mouth to swallow a piece of nearby sea creatures attracted by its flesh.

1 Divinity.

I'm afraid that the King of the Swamp only has one or two points of divinity on his body.

Sauron had fought so many times, and the accumulated divinity value was only 12 points, and as he gave 1 point of divinity to the mutant killer whale in front of him, his divinity value was also reduced to 11 points. However, the effect of this 1 bit of divinity is quite huge, the mutant killer whale seems to have awakened its appetite, frantically eating the fish in the nearby sea, and at the same time, through the spiritual control of Sauron's divine endowment, it expresses a new joy!

As a type of non-sapient being, mutant killer whales are quite weak in their resistance to receiving divinity.

Sauron can even control its consciousness!

The mutant killer whale frantically feeds, its massive body swimming like a black shadow at the bottom of the ocean while opening its bloody mouth to swallow a large amount of fish.

Divine giving is like injecting a little qualitative element into quantitative change.

Sauron could feel that this mutated killer whale was evolving in the direction of the sea giant little by little, and as a divine creature, it directly jumped over the threshold of mutation, and all it needed now was to accumulate the number.

This time I am afraid that it will take several days to eat!

Sauron could feel the insane hunger in its heart, a bit of divinity had essentially changed it, and it would envelop it before it mutated further into a sea behemoth.

A figure emerges from the bottom of the sea.

Sauron lightly jumped onto the deck of the Dragonhead Battleship, his eyes swept over the vast shadows of the seabed, and he said in a deep voice, "Go!" Go to Port Taylor! ”

1 point of divinity completely changed the fate of that mutant killer whale.

At the same time, Sauron also touched a more mysterious realm, which belongs to the realm of the gods, although he has a weak divinity and cannot give divine power like the gods, but he can give a part of his divinity to the target like the high-level demons in the bottomless abyss and Bartow's hell, and then influence and even control the will of the target.
