Chapter 1543: Chapter 1537: Damaged [6/7]
Clang—
He followed two Casters from the Nine Commandments rendezvous out of the Saint Alan Cathedral.
At this moment, Ronald thought everything here was settled.
But just as the three of them stepped out of the main door of the cathedral. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
The Capitalism spell operating in secret unexpectedly fed back a special piece of information to Ronald.
—It was a broken musical note.
Even when converted into a form of value, Ronald seemed to still hear a crisp musical note ring out.
It was as if a string on a musical instrument had been slashed. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Ronald kept his expression unchanged on the surface, but in his heart, he immediately thought of the Forest of Melodies, and the name of his current location—Seven-string Seal!
He was stepping on the ground of the holy city at this moment.
But before that, this place was a unique space established by a spell, a concept derived from music.
If one truly regarded this as merely an ancient ruin sealed away.
"That would be somewhat careless."
Ronald laughed at himself, then fixed his gaze.
Since he was aware, he naturally could not allow things to grow along the wrong branches.
He immediately activated the spell.
Locking the target of greed on the holy city itself.
In the next second, the information appeared.
—Seven-string Seal
—World in disjunction [6/7]
—With the destruction of the Seven-string Seal, the spell sustaining the entire world is collapsing, and the ancient city is about to reappear in the world.
"!"
Ronald suddenly turned his head to look at the Saint Alan Cathedral they had just exited.
Within the seal, he received the news faster and more specifically than external exploration.
Not only did he confirm the spatial nature of the holy city itself, but he also learned information that no one else could know.
—It is already in collapse.
From his experience, the sound of the string breaking earlier was likely due to the damage to the Saint Alan Cathedral.
Recalling the map of the holy city...
The entire holy city was divided into seven major districts!
"So that’s it!"
Combining his personal encounter with the information he learned, Ronald immediately gained a new understanding of the state of the holy city.
Of course, aside from this.
There was another matter he needed to confirm immediately.
"You seemed to vaguely hear the sound of a string breaking just now. Unsure if it was a hallucination from being overly excited, you plan to check the situation with a companion."
The words, containing spell power, came from Ronald’s mouth.
One of the two Casters from the Nine Commandments in front immediately slowed down and turned to a companion:
"Hey, Eric, did you hear that string sound just now?"
"Huh? What sound?"
"No, it’s nothing. I might have just been overly excited and imagined it."
Using the enemy, Ronald confirmed the current situation.
Because they lacked relevant detection abilities, even these two powerful Casters from the Nine Commandments did not perceive the sound of the string breaking, nor were they aware of the reality that the seal of the holy city was collapsing.
Unless one’s perception skills were at an extraordinary level.
Or, like Ronald, one possessed special spell assistance such as Capitalism, otherwise, it would be impossible to detect the anomaly just now.
The two Casters, mentally influenced by the spell, remained oblivious and continued leading the way. Ronald followed them, relieved.
Same as before, yet different, the three of them.
Maintained the status quo and continued forward.
They left through the front door of the Saint Alan Cathedral. Crossing the fountain square, they proceeded toward the northwest.
During this time, Ronald saw more actions from the two Casters from the Nine Commandments.
Walking on the streets of the ancient city.
The two acted boldly, without scruple, even daring to casually pick up and play with interesting objects on the street.
Clearly, days of prior exploration.
Had allowed them to confirm the city’s safety, even treating the holy city as their own domain!
With this progress, their pace was surprisingly fast.
They soon arrived at a newly formed plaza.
Ronald looked up.
A T-shaped cross resembling the symbol of an ancient Egyptian ankh was erected in the center of the entire square.
A blue dome, like the sky, hovered above the cross.
Apart from its religious function, it also provided shelter from the wind and rain.
Ronald looked down.
The ground here was starkly different from other locations in the holy city.
He found that the plaza underfoot was actually a composition of embedded tombstones, stone slabs, monuments, and story-laden tile mosaics, creating a solemn and awe-inspiring layout.
Looking further ahead.
What lay beyond such a special plaza was not a grand cathedral building.
Instead, it was a gray, modest courtyard, revealing simplicity within.
"Haha, we finally arrived!"
"With the three Lenny brothers together, it’s absolutely foolproof."
At this moment, the two Casters from the Nine Commandments spoke.
While expressing their admiration for their companion’s capability, they quickened their steps, the assurance visibly evident.
For Ronald—it was to confront valuable enemies ahead.
This was the Secret Whisper Monastery.
A district only eligible for those who renounced worldly power to solely serve the deities and study faith.
According to the information Ronald had gathered.
Choosing seclusion here meant that the clergy virtually bid farewell to all mundane life, focusing on testing the faith within their hearts.
In that era, only children who grew up here.
Qualified to become candidates for priestly positions and sacred posts.
"One, two, three..."
Without stepping inside.
Ronald already sensed the exact number of enemies in his awareness.
There were a total of three Casters here.
One was located in an outer courtyard of the monastery, while the other two were deep inside, confronting certain hidden spells.
"Lenny! We’ve discovered something important here, come out and take a look."
The two Casters who brought Ronald here started yelling.
The two people deep within the monastery remained unaware, but those stationed in the outer courtyard immediately reacted.
After a few breaths.
A man wearing casual clothes in the Gred style came out, looking at the three who had arrived at the monastery with confusion:
"Eric, weren’t you assigned a task to go to the church on the other end, why are you suddenly here..."
The young man started to complain.
But his eyes soon focused, locking onto Ronald behind his two companions:
"Wait! Who is this guy? I don’t remember the president bringing in such a girl."
The caster who brought Ronald here immediately responded:
"She’s an ancient citizen of the holy city we found!"
"Because it’s crucial, we decided to call in more people to ensure she is delivered safely to the president."
Hearing his companion’s explanation, the man in casual clothes’ gaze changed.
He had considerable trust in the information fed back by his own companions.
So when his gaze fell back on Ronald, the solemnity turned into an appreciation for the nun’s beauty.
"Is that so! My brothers are still inside breaking the seal."
"I’ll enjoy this girl first!"
