When the [Divine Artifact Ranking] is republished three months later—
It must make it into the top 30 of the [Divine Artifact Ranking]!
However, there were many gods and powerful beings who shared Zeus's thoughts. Mocking and satirizing the Greek pantheon was one thing, but dealing with any opportunities brought about by the [Dimensional Ranking] was quite another.
The previous "Beauty Ranking" and "Transcendence Ranking" -
Almost none of the gods and powerful figures were involved at that time. Except for the Infrared Eye, who was completely helpless, the [Artifact Ranking] was obviously a completely different story. Weapons were originally part of the strength of the powerful. Of course, powerful figures like Sazex and Ajax who preferred to fight with their bare hands were an exception.
Many gods and powerful figures have analyzed the rankings published by the [Dimensional Rankings]. As long as you make it into the top ten, the ranking rewards are almost all related to those who surpass others, and the top three are even related to the other shore.
If they had known in advance that the [Dimensional Ranking] would be revealing the [Divine Weapon Ranking], powerful beings like Shiva and Indra would have undoubtedly gone to great lengths, just like Zeus, to enhance their weapons to the extreme.
However, it was too late to say anything now. The gods and powerful beings could only patiently wait for the [Divine Weapon Ranking] to be published, praying that their weapons wouldn't be listed on the [Divine Weapon Ranking] so early like Zeus's. At the same time, they all gave their orders—
They will utilize all the resources and capabilities of their respective pantheons, factions, and organizations to prepare for the re-enhancement of their weapons.
Even Sazex and Ajax, who have always fought bare-handed, are considering whether to spend some money to get themselves a decent weapon in order to increase their chances of getting on the [Dimensional Ranking].

Chapter 74: Special Family Members
After revealing two artifacts from the Greek pantheon.
The [Artifact Ranking] continues to be published in an orderly manner, but the next weapon to appear on the [Artifact Ranking] will surprise many people.
"This is also... a weapon?!"
"That can't be right, it's clearly a product of the ancient Middle Ages... who would use it as a weapon!"
"I have no recollection of this weapon. I never imagined there was such a weapon in mythology!"
"...The weapons of these two, which are ranked higher than those of Zeus, the king of the gods, and Poseidon, the god of the sea, cannot possibly be unknown in myths and legends."
"..."
"Did I miss something? I really don't remember anything..."
"..."
Countless experts in theology and mythology have fallen into deep thought.
The reason for this situation is that the items appearing on the [Artifact Ranking] cannot be described by the concept of 'weapon' at all.
Its appearance is exactly like the execution platform, a widely used torture device in the Middle Ages!
The medieval execution platform, more commonly known as the guillotine—
It appears frequently in film and television works, but its traces are very few in myths and legends.
Those divine artifacts will eventually appear on the [Divine Artifact Ranking].
Then, information about the 'execution platform' appeared—
……
[Ranked 42nd: The Execution Platform of the Purple Flame Priest]
[Owner: Yaukusta]
[Owner's Race: Human]
[Description: One of the Sacred Relic-type Divine Destruction Gears, it is a special and independent Divine Destruction Gear that can choose or move to the host's side with its own consciousness. It can create a purple cross-shaped sacred flame, which has extremely strong destructive power against anything, especially demons, vampires... and is particularly effective against them.]
[Ranking Reward: Holy Flame Boost (1x)]
……
[Additional Description: These are the highest-level divine artifacts created by the God of the Bible, powerful enough to destroy both gods and demon kings. Each [God-Slaying Gear] possesses two or more divine artifact abilities, making them humanity's most powerful trump card in their fight against divine and demonic races.]
……
Suddenly, ordinary people realized the truth.
The concise introduction to the "Divine Artifact Ranking" helped them understand (cdfb) what a "Divine Artifact" is and what the differences are between the two.
When the [Transcendent Ranking] was previously announced—
Many people have taken note of those listed on the [Transcendent Ranking], noting that many are wielders of divine artifacts, with humans making up the majority, just like—
Lavinia Renee, ranked tenth on the [Transcendent Ranking], Geork, ranked seventh, and Leonardo, ranked sixth, are all wielders of the God-Slaying Gear. Of course, there are some exceptions. Gaspar Vlad, who possesses the [Evil Eye That Stops the World], is also a hybrid vampire, not a 100% human.
"The divine artifacts created by the God of the Bible should only be able to reside in those with human blood."
Someone speculated.
These words are undoubtedly close to the real answer.
At this point, someone raised a question.
"That Seraog Bali, ranked ninth on the [Transcendent Ranking], is not human, but a pure-blooded demon, one hundred percent demon. How could he be the wielder of the God-Slaying Gear!"
Immediately, many people were speechless.
Yes--
This successor to the throne of the Underworld King's family, the pure-blooded demon Seraog Baal, is described on the [Transcendent Ranking] as the owner of the [Lion King's Battle Axe]. Could it be that divine artifacts can also reside in demons?
This has raised questions not only among ordinary humans, but also among gods and powerful beings. The fact that Seraog Baal, a pure-blooded demon, became the master of the God-Slaying Gear, the Lion King's Battle Axe, is inherently highly illogical.
If it were so easy for the gods and demons to seize the God-Destroying Tool, then...
How could the gods stand idly by and watch such powerful weapons slip through the fingers of humankind? They knew that each of these divine weapons could at least create a demon king-level powerhouse.
The gods have been envious of this fighting power for quite some time now.
Unfortunately, the gods are completely unable to interfere with the divine artifacts and god-destroying tools under the control of the [Celestial System].
Azazel, who takes artifacts as a hobby.
Ever since I learned from the [Transcendent Ranking] that Seraog Baal, as a pure-blooded demon, became the master of the God-Slaying Gear [Lion King's Battle Axe], I have been pondering the reason for this!
However, Azazel racked his brains but couldn't figure out the cause and effect, and the information sent from the underworld spies contained very little useful information.
The information that appeared next on the [Artifact Ranking] surprised the gods and even Azazel, but also made them realize the truth.
If we understand it this way, it's not entirely impossible—
……
[Ranked 40th: The Lion King's Battle Axe]
[Owner: Seraog Bali]
Master's race: Pure-blooded demon
[Introduction: One of the God-Destroying Gears, its true form is the Nemean Lion from the Twelve Trials. It is a God-Destroying Gear created by sealing the Nemean Lion from ancient Greek mythology into a divine artifact. Unlike other sealing-type divine artifacts, it does not seal monsters into divine artifacts, but rather seals the divine artifact into the body of a monster. Even after the wielder dies, it can still act on its own, possess its own consciousness, and can freely transform into a lion or a battle axe. It is a special sealing-type divine artifact...]

……
[Additional Information: Due to the unique nature of the Lion King's Battle Axe, it was reborn as a familiar by Seraug Baal using seven demon chess pieces (soldiers), existing only through uniqueness and chance!]
……
The information revealed in the [Divine Artifact Ranking] undoubtedly shattered the common sense of the gods and Azazel, leaving them both astonished and incredulous.
Demon's Familiar -
Relatives and the tools of divine destruction are completely unrelated things.
Who could have imagined that the thought of resurrecting a God-Slaying Gear as a demon's familiar would never even cross their mind? This was indeed far beyond everyone's expectations. However, seeing the information and characteristics of the Lion King's Battle Axe displayed on the [Divine Weapon Ranking], and following this line of thought, everything would fall into place.
The Underworld, the New Demon King's Castle—
"So that's how Seraug got the Lion King's Battle Axe."
Ajeka exclaimed.
As the creator of the Demon Chess Piece, he also never expected that the Demon Chess Piece could actually regenerate the God Destroyer into a Demon Familiar.
Wow, the new generation of demons these days are all so clever and playful!

Chapter 75: The Holy Grail
"Leaving aside the execution platform of the Purple Flame Priest, the Lion King's Battle Axe is something that has already appeared on the Transcendent Ranking. It seems that God-Destroying Tools will appear one after another."
"Naturally, the ranking of the remaining God Destroyers will also increase."
"We humans, who possess the God-Destroying Gear, might just replicate the miracles and glory we achieved on the [Transcendent Ranking]."
"God-Destroying Gear, Divine Treasure..."
The existence of the God-Slaying Tools and Divine Artifacts was like a shot of adrenaline, hitting the hearts of all humanity and exciting countless people who wanted to know as soon as possible how many humans were on the [Divine Artifact Ranking] and whether they could crush the gods and demons with an absolute advantage, just like those on the [Transcendence Ranking] back then.
Everyone was filled with anticipation.
……
[Ranked 38th: Holy King Sword]
Master: Arthur Pendragon
[Owner's Race: Human]
[Description: The legendary sword of kings, which can only be drawn by a born eternal king. It possesses the power to sever space and is said to be the strongest holy sword on earth...]
[Ranking Reward: Spatial Protection]
……
"Arthur Pendragon, the descendant of King Arthur, is known as the strongest paladin."
"A holy sword comparable to the God-Slaying Gear..."
"Some powerful beings among humanity were also blasted out one by one because of the appearance of the [Dimensional Ranking].
"...The group is weak, but some individuals should not be underestimated!"
"..."
