Free Web NovelChapter 1545: Chapter 1539: The Ancient Temple Trial
In the nick of time, powerful magic power burst forth simultaneously.
At the moment when the light covered everyone.
Ronald, with a reaction speed beyond reason, unfolded the "Human Limit" to wrap himself.
In the next second, the church’s light covered the range of "Human Limit".
Ronald could feel the formidable power of this light, but it still couldn’t break through the defense at the level of the "Human Limit" rule.
After a few seconds, the light faded, and Ronald’s vision cleared.
He looked around and finally had to accept a fact.
In front of the monastery’s church, he was the only one still standing there.
The other five casters from the "Nine Commandments" couldn’t react in time and thus disappeared in the light.
"..."
"What’s going on here again?"
Ronald’s eyes were serious as he walked towards the church. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
The casters from the "Nine Commandments" indeed disappeared before him, but in his spell perception, their traces had merely changed location—they had transferred from the outside to inside the church.
Taking advantage of the duration of "Human Limit," Ronald was naturally not afraid of the scene before him and planned to seize the opportunity to uncover the truth.
He walked straight forward and pushed open the church doors with both hands.
Though it was called a church, it was actually just a simple chapel. Besides the bishop’s seat and the main altar, as well as the benches arranged orderly on both sides, there was hardly anything unusual in the church.
Meanwhile, the five members of the "Nine Commandments" in Ronald’s perception.
They were also not present in the church before him.
"..."
Ronald’s expression grew more solemn.
In spell perception, he could detect their existence, but in reality, there was nothing in the church.
"Isn’t this the situation I faced when I first entered the Holy Capital?"
The scene before him made Ronald uneasy.
To further confirm the situation, he quickly walked forward, reaching out to feel around the positions of the enemies detected in his perception.
——The touch in his hand was naturally still nothingness.
When Ronald first entered the Holy Capital, he faced such a situation during reconnaissance.
Now, having opened the monastery church doors, even the enemies from "Nine Commandments" have fallen into this state.
Though they were enemies... it was enough to raise alarms.
Fortunately, unlike before, on his way here, Ronald had already identified the identities of two of the casters. This enabled him to lock on the target.
The "Greed" sin quickly activated, and the corresponding information appeared instantly.
——Human caster
——Undergoing the temple trial.
——[Temple Trial]: The echo of history, the reverberation of time. A space constructed by superior casters imitating original trials, able to accommodate a large number of participants for trial simultaneously.
"..."
"Phew——"
Ronald let out a long breath.
He rested a hand on the back of a pew, turned his body, and sat grandly in the chapel to contemplate.
Several casters from the "Nine Commandments" were testing the waters.
Now he finally understood the difference between spell perception and reality, what exactly was going on.
But the problem followed.
——Should Ronald enter as well?
With the opportunity of losing five casters, he could continue his actions in the city, further diminishing the strength of the "Nine Commandments".
However, such action actually has an uncontrollable premise. freēwebnovel.com
If Ronald casually ignored here and went to intercept other enemies in the city.
Then once these casters drawn into the temple trial escape.
Without Ronald’s presence, those influenced by the words of power could immediately break free from interference.
At that time, with the casters’ abilities...
Not only would Ronald’s previous concealment be in vain, but even Costate and Martha might find themselves in extreme danger as a result.
"Act cautiously or try a risky prospect..."
Ronald pondered how he should respond.
The "Human Limit" was ticking away, about to end.
Ultimately, Ronald didn’t rise from the pew but sat with a composed expression until the duration of "Human Limit" ended.
Then, a sacred white light reappeared, enveloping Ronald as well.
When the light faded, the simple church returned to tranquility, and Ronald’s figure also disappeared from there.
That was his decision.
Entering the temple trial rashly might be dangerous, but it was also an opportunity Ronald was willing to take.
The temple trial posed risks, but its inherent properties served a natural concealment purpose. Resolving those five inside might not trigger anyone’s reaction!
...
The light gradually faded from his eyes.
Ronald was still sitting on the chair, but he realized he was not in the previous church.
This was a simple room.
Turning his head to the left, the space could be surveyed at a glance, and the entire house consisted of nothing but a living room and a bedroom.
Looking through the window, he saw the courtyard outside, with green vegetables planted on the ground.
Finally, the color and material of the wall told Ronald where he was now—one of the large courtyards of the monastery.
"..."
"So they threw me here."
Ronald looked at himself, still dressed as a nun.
The spell the church created referencing the original trial had both similarities and differences.
At this moment, he could feel the existence of the original within him, but couldn’t mobilize the corresponding power; also, the memory-clearing mechanism of the original trial didn’t take effect here.
Ronald raised an eyebrow.
This meant that besides himself, the other five members of the "Nine Commandments" also did not lose their memories.
"The casters’ contest has now turned into a brawl among ordinary humans."
Having lost overwhelming spell power.
Ronald showed no sign of panic.
He merely glanced down at his chest, deducing a major, and indeed the best news for himself at the moment—identity.
Judging from the location.
The five casters from the "Nine Commandments" had been directly thrown into the church interior.
While he was thrown into this courtyard.
This starkly different treatment certainly held a deeper reason.
Ronald felt it came from his identity, or rather, the body he was now using.
The "Origin of the Species" modification on the body, originating from genetic restructuring, involved fundamental bloodline alteration.
So just like gaining recognition in the Saint Alan Cathedral before.
In the temple trial of the monastery, Ronald likely held a usable identity as well.
As long as he could utilize this advantage...
Under the premise that everyone was ordinary, Ronald might just have more advantage over the five "Nine Commandments" casters, or in other words, ordinary people!
Bang bang bang——
"Lili, are you there?"
At this moment, a knock on the door just happened at the courtyard gate.
"Just like in the original trial, things come knocking at once."
Ronald sighed with a deepening smile.
He immediately got up from the bed, walked straight forward, and opened the door.
A cute little girl with silver hair and blue eyes, dressed in the same nun attire as Ronald, stood in front of him and greeted him warmly:
"Today we go to listen to the lecture, shall we go together?"
Complying readily, Ronald accepted the invitation:
"Of course, let’s go together."
