Please Stop The Pope-Chapter 47

Just as our denomination took ownership of the land in exchange for the cleanup of Ground Zero in Seoul, it seems that they also took the rights unreasonably.

I nodded lightly, then leaned back in my chair for a moment.

"If the Goblin Guild is on the move, you don't need help, do you?"

The Goblin Guild is a guild led by CEO Choi Seo-jin, who was particularly sympathetic to me.

And Choi Seo-jin is such a strong person that he has exchanged blows with Leo a few times.

It was no exaggeration to say that he was one of the best S-class hunters in Korea.

However, the answer I got back from Team Leader Kim was unexpected.

"This request came directly from CEO Choi Seo-jin."

"Yes?"

"CEO Choi Seo-jin lost contact with him two hours ago while exploring the Abyss Dungeon. Before I lost contact, he told me to ask for help from Siu."

He was aware that he wasn't on good terms with the representatives of the other large guilds.

But why me?

Exploring dungeons is something that other guilds would be much better at than me.

"We've arrived."

Either way, the car that Kim and I were riding in arrived at the scene.

Busan Metropolitan City Haeundae-gu.

Among them, it was once called Centum City.

It was one of the places that my military classmates who used to live in Busan took me to the 'Busan Full Course,' and when I came back, I had a new feeling.

No, when I thought about it, it was natural that the impression was new.

"I almost didn't know."

There were no buildings that were intact.

Still, compared to my first impression of Seoul Ground Zero, it looks pretty good.

Some of the high-rise apartments were still intact.

The magic pollution was also really good compared to Seoul Ground Zero.

If you use Holy Stone, you can purify it at a fairly fast rate.

If the situation is the same in Daejeon, it may not be too difficult to purify.

"Earthlings ride in some pretty amazing carriages, don't they? I don't think it's magically driven. I'd like to binge-watch it later."

While we were admiring the bleak skyline around us for a while, a woman stretched out from the car behind us.

She was, of course, Luna.

Luna wore jeans and a black rider jacket instead of the pure white armor she wore to Earth.

By the way, all of these clothes are the embodiment of divine power.

It's more of an imitation than a creation, but it's one of Luna's unique abilities.

It was a convenient ability in many ways, and it was also a skill that even I envied.

"Looks good."

It's definitely because Luna's hardware is fraudulent, but the visuals shine no matter what she wears.

To my compliment, Luna replied with a smile.

"Your Holiness' attention is always good. I've been looking at a lot of clothes on my phone since I got here. Later, when I'm alone with His Holiness, I'll show you something else."

"Anything else?"

"Dolphin pants, bikinis, and things like that, but which one do you like? Oh, maybe black stockings?"

"Yes, it's my fault for complimenting you."

Sometimes I seriously wonder if Luna is really a saint.

When I think about it, all the prophets around me are just strangers.

Could it be that Seungwoo will be like that when he grows up?

One more reason not to show him the demonstration.

While I was chatting casually with Luna, people stepped out of the military tent in front of me.

They approached us without delay, and the man who appeared to be in charge of the scene immediately bowed his head respectfully.

"See you again, Pope Si Woo Kim. Thank you so much for responding to my sudden request. It's called Han Shihyun of the Goblin Guild."

"Is it our sphere?"

"I met you at the C-51 gate in Anyang last time."

Gate C-51 is where I first connected with the Goblin Guild.

It's where I picked up Leo from Eden.

I nodded lightly at him and replied.

"It's good to see you again, Sihyun. Did Chairman Choi ask you to do it himself?"

"Yes, it is. Only Kim Si Woo Kyo...... Only you can solve ........"

It seems that the title of pope does not stick to his mouth very well.

"You can leave out the title of pope."

"I can't do that. There was a command from the representative to be courteous to the Pope."

As I felt last time, this group called the Goblin Guild feels more like a military organization than a company.

Should we say that it is a group that absolutely obeys the orders of its superiors?

It's not that I don't like that.

On the contrary, I like it. This is because, in my experience, these types of people rarely betray themselves.

"I'm sure you're all tired, but let's get things done."

"I see. We'll take you right to the scene."

Then he led me and Luna to the back of the tent.

There was a foreign-looking pit, and in the center of the pit was a door with a strange pattern carved on it.

"That's the entrance to the Abyss Dungeon."

At the same time, you can feel a familiar and unfamiliar aura.

The moment I saw it, I realized why Mr. Choi had asked me for help.

"Your Holiness. I don't know how I feel......."

Luna's words made me frown and nodded.

"Is it a pagan holy place?"

A strange divine power can be felt through the door.

And the moment I saw it, a new message window appeared in front of me.

[You've discovered the Abyss Dungeon: > Shrine of Faith.] [Time left until the dungeon explodes: 11 hours, 52 minutes, 12 seconds]

I'm sure it's going to be a long tonight.

2.

[The Shrine of Faith]

●Type: Sub – Abyss Dungeon

●Description: You have entered the Abyss Dungeon. There is an unknown divine power in this dungeon. Clear the dungeon to stop the runaway.

●Completion Conditions

- Destroy the core of the dungeon

●Rewards: ??? >, 3,000 Holy Points>

"It's me."

I shrugged as I closed the message window in front of me.

Most of the sub-quests are like this.

It's created by your choice, and it's not forced.

I was going to clear it anyway, but they even give me a reward, so there's no reason to refuse.

[You have accepted the sub-quest.]

The interior of the dungeon was completely different from what I expected.

"It's a different world. Amazing. Isn't that so, Your Holiness?"

The last time Yeoju's dungeon was a cave in the mountains, as Luna said, it was like a completely different world.

The grey sky and the ruins of the vast temple beneath it.

It's too foreign to be considered a landscape of the earth.

Wouldn't it be like this if you were to create a world with the word destruction?

It seems to me that I am still ignorant of what is happening on Earth.

Unlike Luna and me, who looked embarrassed, the players of the Goblin Guild who entered the dungeon with us remained calm.

It meant that they were familiar with the structure of this dungeon.

"In technical terms, it's called an open dungeon. It's not a common form, but it's one you've experienced a few times. It is famous for having the largest size of any dungeon."

I guess that's why I said I would need a guide.

I nodded in agreement.

"It's definitely spacious."

It must have been much wider than the eye could perceive.

It was easy to guess from the strange divine power that enveloped this place.

If the divine power of this place was Limen's divine power, it wouldn't have been a task to find Representative Choi somewhere here.

"It's the worst."

The situation here was not good.

It would have been much better if it had been controlled by Magina magic.

With those two energies, he could have pushed them away, but with this divine power, it's a different story.

As the name of the dungeon suggests, this place must have once been a holy place of some cult.

The only divine power I can control is the divine power of those who share my belief in the Limen >.

Naturally, the divine power of the pagans was not at my disposal.

"Certainly not the pagans of Eden...... Do you have any idea of your holiness?"

"If you don't know, how can I know, Luna?"

"Just in case. He could be the God of Earth."

"Not the deity of the Earth."

It has been less than a month since the divine power opened to Earth. It's not even a tight time for the Godhead to appear.

Thus, I was able to come to one conclusion.

"An otherworldly deity."

Neither the Earth nor Eden, but the deity of the Third World.

This must have been the holy place of the otherworldly deity, whose name is now unknown.

Things turned out to be a lot more troublesome than I thought they would be.

I scratched my head slightly with my hand, then looked at the waiting-eyed Shihyun.

"Can you find any trace of Representative Choi?"

"Absolutely. When our guild tackles a dungeon, we always have a marker on it so that latecomers can come to us."

"Take care of yourself."

"No, sir. It's the right thing to do."

If I had just trusted my abilities and walked in alone with Luna, it would have been a lot more troublesome.

The search began in earnest, and Luna and I followed silently.

Numerous pillars sat in the ruins.

New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.

The pillars, stretching high into the sky, were faintly sacred, as if to prove that they had once been part of the temple.

Luna also stuck next to me, following me to the pillar. He spoke in a slightly stiffer voice than before.

"It's ridiculous, it must have been bigger than our Vatican's Great Temple?"

I replied, nodding calmly at her words.

"The Great Temples are one of the best buildings to measure the denomination's dominance. I don't know, but if it's a ruin of this caliber...... It must have been a very strong denomination."

He could tell just by looking at the traces that remained. Perhaps it was once even bigger than the Great Shrine of our Congregation in the Holy See.

And it would have been as prosperous as its enormity.

But the glory of that time was gone, and all that remained was the ruins.

Only a feeble divine power that permeates the ruins proves the existence of this nameless deity......

“…… Wait."

I paused for a moment.

This is because I realized the cause of the discomfort that I had felt earlier.

Divine power does not arise naturally. As Limen told me last time, the power that comes from believing in something desperately in life.

In other words, it cannot exist without the "faith" of "life."

Applying the formula to the current situation, we get the following answer.

"Is there a life that believes in an otherworldly godhead still alive here?"

Sadly, that was the right answer.

Cardeddd-Duk-!

Countless shadows began to rise from the cracks in the ruins, and soon monsters with grotesque twists in their faces slowly appeared.

At their arrival, Luna sighed as she transformed the clothes she was wearing into armor.

"Your Holiness."

"Huh."

"I told you. His Holiness always has a tongue."

I tried to refute that, but I had to give up. Luna smirked as she summoned her mace.

"In a way, that's part of the charm. At least we don't get bored when we're together. It always thrills me."

"It's Luna."

"Yes."

"Shut up."

I'm about to get angry.
