"First, 60° ...... above"

"The second, parallel 120°......"

"Third, 60° ...... above"

Inside the shattered ruins of the Holy Capital, Ronald weaves his way between the pieces.

He passed through the spatial rifts like lightning.

After landing, immediately release spells to explore the surrounding area, find the corresponding spatial rift, and then enter again.

In pursuit of the fastest speed.

He abandoned his previous precise positioning of the city's fragments.

Instead, they only use conspicuous reference objects as coordinates, write down the approximate location of the fragments, and constantly accumulate the number of fragments of the city in their memory.

The new approach soon bore fruit.

Just over ten minutes later, with enough samples of urban debris, Ronald figured out the law of the transfer of spatial rifts.

After the Seven Strings Seal was damaged again.

The fragments of the city floating in the void now form a regular triangle of connectivity every three; At the same time, each fragment, directly up or directly below, has an additional spatial rift that connects to another triangle.

The former is clear and unambiguous, and the latter can also be used to find out the next position in advance through the relative position of the urban fragments.

"Almost......"

Organizing the rules to such an extent that it is no longer a problem to move freely between the fragments of the Holy Capital and go where you want to go.

Ronald took Koster with him and immediately rushed in the direction where the enemy was.

The rules are well understood, and the speed of progress is only briefly paused when the spatial rift is confirmed.

Only a quarter of an hour passed, and the fragments of the city where the enemy was located came into view.

Ronald made a rare stop.

Because what appears in the field of vision is a very familiar building.

It was the place where he met the Cathedral of Grace during the Temple Trials and met the Church sages.

However, in less than half a day, everything here is no longer as glorious as before.

The pool that surrounds the cathedral is split in the middle, and the water spills into the void without a trace. And the cathedral itself, with its majestic and sacred tower, was only half of it at this time.

Due to the viewing angle, Ronald could not see the façade of the Cathedral of Grace.

However, judging from the damage around it, it can be guessed that it has been severely damaged.

The sealing base point of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] is not elsewhere.

It is the heart of this whole holy capital!

"I see."

Seeing this scene, Ronald was finally relieved.

He was still scrupling before, how the people of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] accurately found the base point of the [Seven Strings Seal].

Now it seems that the other party is aiming at the core of the Holy Capital.

Even if there is no reconnaissance spell like the Divine Comedy, as the core of the entire city, the Cathedral of Grace does have the qualifications to be targeted.

"Huh?"

It was then that Ronald sensed that Lilja had shifted his position.

The president of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] was originally located inside the Cathedral of Holy Grace and had not moved his position for a long time.

But just a second ago, Lilja suddenly accelerated, and rushed out of this building as if fleeing for her life!

It was only a moment of Ronald's surprise at this.

The leader of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] plunged headlong into the spatial rift and traveled to another fragment of the city.

"Kostadt, we're going to pick things up!"

The enemy's unusual behavior lifted Ronald's spirits, and he was a few points faster with Kostadt.

No doubt.

Lilja destroys the Cathedral of Grace and advances the damage of the [Seven Strings Seal].

But it wasn't all smooth sailing for this man.

In the Cathedral of Holy Grace, Liara must have encountered a special situation or crisis, which is why she escaped in such a mess!

The figure of the sages in the Cathedral of Grace has made a move?

Or is something else at play?

With curiosity in his heart, Ronald calculated the correct direction as quickly as he could. Along the way, the black fog of hell rolled in, and in a few minutes, it was possible to accurately cross a spatial rift.

With such an exaggerated pace, Ronald soon came to the fragment where the Cathedral of Grace is located.

Maybe it's because of the sturdy texture.

Compared to other urban fragments, the Cathedral of Grace is very large here, and the building itself has not been harmed by any spatial splits.

Once on the ground, Ronald looked straight ahead.

Not only was the top of the tower on the front cut off, but the original grand main entrance of the Cathedral of Holy Grace had completely collapsed, and the walls on both sides had also been smashed directly inward, revealing the interior of the cathedral.

In the past, it was a holy place for the Church and a meeting place for people's faith.

All that remains is the ruins and the messy fragments that have been overwhelmed in the ruins.

“……”

Ronald had only recently seen what it was like in its heyday.

Even in the middle of it, discussing ideas with the sages of the past, having in-depth exchanges, and finally passing the test.

But now......

The huge difference between the two gave him a false sense of trance.

However, time was of the essence, and Lilja fled among the debris of other cities.

Ronald didn't dare to delay, so he walked inside, intending to figure out what was going on here as soon as possible.

Bang Bang –

The moment his feet stepped on the ruins of the Cathedral of Holy Grace, a powerful wave of magic power was born around Ronald, enveloping him without leaving a gap.

Immediately after, the wind sounded.

Wisps of gray-white mist, flowing from the gaps in the ruins of the Cathedral of the Holy Grace, hovered towards Ronald.

No need for any spell reminders.

Just by looking at them with the naked eye, you can detect their malice.

Kostadt, who was standing outside, was still analyzing the original text, and was shocked by such a large formation, she immediately stopped her movements and turned to spells, trying to drag Ronald out of danger.

"Sir, it's dangerous here!"

"No!" Seeing that Kostadt's spell wind was coming and he was about to be successfully rescued, Ronald raised his hand to stop the maid.

Standing in the mist, he unhurriedly shouted a noun:

"Temple Trial!"

“……”

Sure enough, the fog instantly stopped the tendency to encircle Ronald.

They stopped in the air, as if wondering why the man in front of them would say the word.

Ronald smiled and continued:

"We were still debating in the trial just now, don't we remember so soon?"

This sentence completely dispelled the fog's doubts.

The dangerous magic faded, and then entangled with the mist, converging in front of Ronald.

It only takes a few breaths before and after.

A gray figure stood in front of Ronald again.

"Young man, you're a little late."

The voice sounded old and indistinct, as if it were mixed with several different wills.

Ronald speculated that this was the result of the fusion of many sages, so he didn't care, and directly explained the current situation and needs:

"The [Seven Strings Seal] itself is collapsing!"

"The enemy who destroyed this place just now took the things in the hint, in addition to the Holy Blood Vial and the Original Codex, do you have any information here that can help?"
