Subscriber of the Gods Episode 38
Episode 38. Subscribe to the New God
Ethan’s first thought was to subscribe to a new god.
Originally, portal magic existed in this map.
Portal magic, which allows you to instantly travel between regions, is a magic that you absolutely must learn if you can learn it.
But there was a problem, this portal magic was a magic that only the highest level magicians could use.
There were artifacts and superpowers with similar effects, but they were extremely difficult to obtain.
Because of this, most people used portal scrolls, but these portal scrolls were sold by the highest level wizards through contracts with the top, so they were very expensive.
In addition, the distance was limited and there were many restrictions as movement was limited to only certain cities.
‘If there is a god like that, I should subscribe.’
Ethan opened [the new world].
“huh?”
A note arrived for Ethan, who was connected to the new world.
The mailbox was so brightly lit that I couldn’t help but press it.
“Is that Ares from before?”
But Ethan didn’t read the note.
Ethan had now entered the New World to find a new god to subscribe to. This was not the time to be reading useless letters.
There were two gods he was currently subscribed to.
The first to subscribe were Heo Jun and Hercules.
Heo Jun’s power has been the foundation for Ethan’s survival so far, and Hercules’ power has been of great help in his subsequent activities.
The influence of the god who subscribed to it was quite great.
‘You have five likes now. There’s no need to keep them. It’s better to subscribe to new gods or unlock other videos to gain more power.’
You can subscribe to multiple gods as long as you like them.
I don’t know if there is a limit to the number of gods you can subscribe to, but it was clear that you could at least subscribe to as many gods as you liked.
‘I have to choose carefully.’
As before, the algorithm of the new world recommended several videos to Ethan. However, the video Ethan wanted was not among them.
Ethan flipped through the videos.
As I was skipping through it, I saw many of the major gods that I had seen when I first turned on [New World].
[Zeus] [Lord of lightning]
The most famous of these was, of course, Zeus, the supreme god of Greek mythology, who had enormous recognition and power.
“Ten million subscribers?”
Zeus has a whopping ten million subscribers.
Zeus currently had the highest number of subscribers among the gods of the New World.
Moreover, the number of likes was quite high.
Even in the brief preview video, blue lightning was striking.
“There seem to be more Shinsegae users than I thought. If there are 10 million, does that mean almost all of them are subscribed?”
The closest thing to a victor in the [New World] at the moment was Zeus.
But Ethan did not subscribe to Zeus.
‘What Zeus can provide is probably the power of lightning. But you don’t have to subscribe to get that.’
Now Ethan can get one more job in exchange for getting his first job perfectly.
That’s why I was thinking of getting a second job by choosing the job I chose the most when playing the existing Mepan.
‘You can’t waste likes.’
After Zeus, I saw other gods.
Because I needed a god who could give me strength right now.
While trying out different things, Ethan discovered a feature.
“Oh, I can search by keyword?”
-You can subscribe to the right god through keywords.
-We help you subscribe to the gods you need now.
“If I type in a keyword, will a list of gods that match that keyword appear?”
Ethan first searched for [Movement Ability].
Then the gods started to appear.
[Hermes] [God of messengers, thieves, and travelers]
The most striking one was Hermes.
He had winged shoes that allowed him to travel easily wherever he wanted.
And underneath that, gods with the movement skills related to the portal I searched for appeared.
Ethan immediately checked the subscription reviews.
– This is Hermes’s review after subscribing. Thanks to the ability of the winged shoes, I was able to travel around, but the conditions were difficult and it was inconvenient because I couldn’t move immediately.
-I subscribed because the other abilities are good, but since the movement skill is not the main one, it feels a bit difficult.
“Hmm.”
Hermes was not the god he wanted to be.
Ethan continued to seek information about the gods.
Then, the algorithm started to reorganize. Then, it immediately put a god on the very top.
It was a god with very few subscribers.
[Hong Gil-dong] [Righteous Thief]
“Hong Gil Dong?”
The god’s name was Hong Gil-dong.
There were only two videos and very few likes and subscribers.
But what he could learn from the videos he provided was perfect for Ethan right now.
[Corrupt officials are everywhere. In order to take away the wealth of corrupt officials and share it with the hungry people, our Hwalbindang must be present everywhere.]
‘I subscribe to Heo Jun so I’m mainly into oriental gods? Well, there’s nothing wrong with that.’
Any god is fine.
It’s important to be able to learn what you need now.
‘There is only one subscription review.’
– Deep Sea Exploration: This is the perfect god to gain abilities like teleportation and portals. While other gods grant various abilities but have conditions attached to the portal ability itself, this god literally only grants the portal ability.
‘This is exactly the god I was looking for.’
Ethan didn’t hesitate.
-Would you like to subscribe to [Hong Gil-dong]?
-The number of likes required to subscribe is ‘3’.
“The number of likes required has increased? What is this? Does it mean that the number of gods subscribed to increases, so the number of likes required also increases?”
When I thought about it, it seemed likely.
If the number of likes continues to be 1, these [New World] users will only subscribe to the new video without watching the in-depth videos.
‘You can gain as much power as you want with just that.’
“It is true that there is such a braking device.”
That’s okay though. There weren’t enough likes.
Ethan immediately subscribed to Hong Gil-dong.
-You have subscribed to [Hong Gil-dong]!
– Two videos of the god you subscribed to will be opened!
“And in addition.”
Ethan put the gold in.
-You purchased the skip feature for 1 million gold!
Skip function!
I finally bought the ability to skip videos.
Ethan smiled brightly and immediately turned on one of Hong Gil-dong’s videos.
-[new!] How to get anywhere on time
-[new!] How to run the wind
Ethan immediately played the first video.
The video showed Hong Gil-dong wearing a rather stylish blue outfit, a hat, and black sunglasses.
‘It’s strangely cool, isn’t it?’
-First, I would like to thank you for subscribing. I am Hong Gil-dong… … .
Ethan skipped straight back 30 seconds.
-People call me a thief… … .
Another 30 seconds.
After passing it over and over again, I finally get to the main point.
-The most important thing for a thief is timing. Corrupt officials are everywhere, but I only have one body. That’s why I used the art of doppelganger to punish all those corrupt officials.
Hong Gil-dong’s main strength was this art of doppelganger.
It could be seen as the most representative power.
‘I remember dealing with eight clones.’
When I was quite young, I read a book about Hong Gil-dong.
‘I’m not going to teach you how to clone yourself, am I?’
-But that clone technique has evolved to the next level. There is no need for a clone. I, Hong Gil-dong, just need to be there.
And that was the end of the first video. The second video that played next was the main story.
‘One ability per image. That’s how it was until now, but I guess this isn’t a rule.’
-How to ride the wind. Let me teach that to my followers.
Tiring-!
-I learned to flash in the east and flash in the west.
-Added Skill: Wind and Cloud, Flashing in the East, Flashing in the West (A)
-The real name is Wind and Cloud! The essence of this power is to flash in the east and flash in the west. It is the ability to reach any desired location. However, in order to use it, you need to go to the location you want to go to.
The strength he gained by subscribing to Hong Gil-dong was exactly what Ethan needed most at the moment.
If you wanted to use a portal, you would have to buy and use an expensive portal scroll every time, so this will save you money.
Ethan smiled with satisfaction.
“This solves everything.”
It was worth writing the hard-to-get likes.
Ethan closed the new world right away.
The mailbox sparkled, but I buried it for now.
Now was not the time to be looking at letters.
“first.”
Ethan used wind and cloud.
-Count Wickers’ estate is registered in the wind and cloud.
-You can return to the Count’s estate at any time by using the wind and cloud.
“done.”
Now, you can instantly travel to any place you’ve been to, like a portal.
“I was collecting likes, but this is it.”
After subscribing to Hong Gil-dong, I now only have 2 likes left.
If the number of likes needed increases as the number of subscribers increases, then 2 is not enough.
‘Besides, I have to unlock the video too.’
To unlock videos of existing gods and subscribe to new ones, you had to keep collecting likes.
“I need to quickly gather likes while upgrading my specs.”
I thought it would be good to get likes by achieving various achievements while spec-upping. I figured out that you can’t get likes by simply doing good deeds.
‘The number of likes you get depends on how well you accomplish the task in difficult situations.’
It wasn’t like you could get likes simply by hunting named monsters.
“First of all, hunt monsters while completing the prerequisite achievements.”
If you do good deeds and defeat named monsters, you will be able to rake in likes.
* * *
Before leaving the Earldom, Ethan took the liquid out of his bosom.
This essence was a panacea that Count Wickers had bought for Ethan at great expense.
I bought this medicine believing that it would definitely alleviate Ethan’s illness.
“I can finally eat.”
At that time, the effect was so strong that I couldn’t eat it.
But now, my stamina had increased considerably and my herbal medicine making skills were becoming useful.
You could make this essence into a herbal medicine and drink it.
“But still, the difficulty is high.”
The difficulty level that can be handled varies depending on the potential of the material.
This sap was not something to be seen easily, at least.
Ethan opened the Donguibogam first.
The Donguibogam, a book of oriental medicine, contained the essence of oriental medicine that Heo Jun had learned throughout his life.
‘It’s your mindset that matters.’
-I will continue to refine, try, and achieve.
The most important thing in Donguibogam was trial and repetition.
Try, repeat, and repeat again. Through those attempts and repetitions, enlightenment will come.
If that happens, the skills you have honed will become yours, which is what Heo Jun meant by mastery.
-Failure is inevitable.
Ethan also failed many times while doing Mepan. But someone said, if you don’t give up, it’s not a failure, it’s just a process.
Tiring-!
-I made a 200-year-old Recard herbal medicine!
-Rating in progress… … .
-200 Year Old Recard Herbal Medicine [S Grade]
“Recard decoction?”
A S-grade herbal medicine was created.
“You’re crazy.”
