Overgeared
Chapter 125
Chapter 125
The pope shouted.
“Don’t you know who I am? I am Pope Drevigo! I am the parent of 70 million people and as the agent of the goddess, the most sacred being in the world! You dare point a sword at me? This infidel, you aren’t afraid of divine punishment!”
“Hrmm.” Grid listened quietly before saying something. “You spat at me.”
“W-What? Disgraceful person!”
He had never been insulted like this until now. A paladin was helping the traitor and now this? The pope’s head turned red with anger.
“I will punish you myself! Don’t think about leaving here alive!”
Grid glared at him coldly. “You are always talking about divine punishment… Pope, you haven’t grasped the situation yet? I have come here to inflict divine punishment on you. You are the one who will be punished, not me. So shouldn’t you act a little better? Tsk.”
It wasn’t just the pope who wasn’t happy with this situation. Grid felt the same. If the pope was a normal person, it would’ve been easy to clear the quest to get the pavranium blessed. However, the pope was a corrupt man and endangered the Rebecca Church, causing Grid to struggle unnecessarily because of the quest changing.
“The introduction I received from my father-in-law is useless… You, this is really annoying.”
Peeng!
Grid nervously squeezed Dainsleif. Then his sword aimed at the pope. But the pope wasn’t going to stand still. He responded by launching light magic power.
Kwa kwang!
A powerful explosion occurred as a white flash and black flash collided. Due to the aftermath, 10m of the long carpet was burnt to pieces. The remnants of the carpet fell like red eyes looking at Grid with disapproval.
‘My sword was blocked?’
Grid’s sword was enhanced by the red lightning bolt and Damian’s buff skill. The fact that he couldn’t win against the pope’s magic was basically proof that the pope’s magic power was stronger than Grid’s sword.
‘My attack power right now is higher than Malacus’ magic power. Malacus himself would fail to stop me, even if he unfolded a three-layer shield.’
Grid couldn’t understand it. His increased insight showed that the pope had a combat power of 24,000. Given Damian’s combat power of 12,500 as a level 227 ranker, 24,000 didn’t seem very high. Just looking at the numerical value, two Damians would be able to exert combat power over the pope.
‘Based on Damian… The Tzedakah Guild has an average combat power of 12,000 at the time of the Malacus raid…’
17 guild members were involved in the Malacus raid. If the average 12,000 combat power of each person was combined, the total combat strength would be over 200,000. But didn’t they get overwhelmed by Malacus’ strength, even with a combined combat power of over 200,000?
In other words, Malacus should have at least 200,000 combat power and the pope in front of him should be 10 times weaker than Malacus because he only had 24,000 combat power. But after an exchange of blows, the pope felt stronger than Malacus. It was curious.
‘Well…’
Grid’s high insight allowed him to understand the concept of combat power.
‘A small gap in combat power is, in reality, a large gap to cover.’
Grid’s assertion was correct. While Rebecca’s Daughters, the pope, and Damian’s attack power were all valued in the tens and hundreds of thousands, actual combat power was delicate enough to feel when there was even a single digit difference.
The concept of combat power wasn’t 1+1=2.
Let’s assume that an attack power of 1 was an ant and an attack power of 2 was a praying mantis. It was impossible for two ants to beat a praying mantis.
Therefore, combat power was 1+1 < 2.
This was how the 17 Tzedakah Guild members were overwhelmed by the lone Malacus.
“The sum of combat power is meaningless. 17 cats gathered together can’t beat one elephant. And the pope is a top predator that can devour an elephant. Isn’t he incredibly strong?”
“Cat? Elephant? What are you saying?”
The pope couldn’t understand Grid’s words. Grid grinned at his confusion. “I am a cat or an elephant. This is an opportunity to gauge which one.”
“I don’t know what you are talking about. Infidel, are you crazy?”
“Don’t worry too much about it.”
