Chapter 148: The Seventh Realm of Original Sin: Lust! (Ask for subscription)
Before entering the talent evolution space, Roy guessed many scenes that he would encounter.
It may be a "test type" like Ace and Lilia, or it may be a "special type" like Shanica and Elena.
But whether it is the former or the latter, the scenes they are in are "supernatural", such as Ace's upside-down hanging iceberg and Shanika's dead tree.
But at this moment, Roy opened his eyes, and what met his eyes was an ordinary scene to the extreme.
A faint smoke rose from the fire on the ground, a simple wooden hut with wet fishing nets hung in the corner of the wall stood sparsely, a few dark-skinned fishermen were busy with something in the small fishing boat on the shore, and a few children gathered around, not knowing what they were talking about, but from Roy's point of view, he could clearly see the strong look of anticipation in their eyes.
A very ordinary scene of a seaside fishing village.
However, this is a space for talent evolution!
Roy was confused.
In such a scenario, how could he complete the first awakening of his talent [Infinite Desire]?
At this moment, in front of Roy's eyes, gray characters jumped out of thin air and arranged into a large paragraph.
ββ
[Scene: The Seventh Realm of Original Sin: The Realm of Lust (Projection of the Past)]
[Objective: Ensure the smooth progress of the "Divine Descent Ritual". γ
[Quest Completion Reward: The first perfect evolution of the talent [Infinite Desire].] γ
[Remaining times: 3/3 (when the number of times reaches 0, if the mission goal is not achieved, it will be regarded as a mission failure)]
[Now, the mission begins!] γ
ββ
As Roy finished reading the last gray lettering, a vivid feeling swept through his body.
The salty sea breeze, the skin-to-air contact, the lapping of the waves are mixed with the chirping of seabirds in the sky......
It was as if at this moment, he had truly entered this world of projection.
Roy lowered his head slightly, looking at his clenched and relaxed hands, the real and unwanted touch, making him almost think that this was a real "world".
"The Seventh Realm of Original Sin, the Realm of Lust?"
"Ensuring the smooth running of the "Descent Ritual"? β
Recalling what had been shown in the gray character panel earlier, Roy frowned.
From the current point of view, he is in a former projection world called the "Seventh Realm of Original Sin: The Realm of Lust", and in order to complete the evolution of the talent [Infinite Desire], he needs to ensure that the so-called "Divine Descent Ritual" goes smoothly.
And the bottom number of times means that he only has three chances, and once he fails to achieve this goal in three chances, his talent evolution this time will be declared a failure.
The opportunity to evolve the talent in exchange for 100% energy reserve progress, if it fails like this, the loss is too heavy - Roy doesn't know, if the talent evolution fails, the number of times the [Original Sin Rubik's Cube] reaches "100%" will be counted this time, if it is calculated, it means that when he reaches "100%" in the energy reserve progress this time, not only will he not gain anything, but the difficulty of obtaining the energy reserve progress in the future will increase because of this, and he will fall into a vicious circle.
"Hoo ......"
With a deep breath, Roy didn't rush into action, but stood still, thinking about the little information he had at the moment.
From the name of this world, "The Seventh Realm of Original Sin, Realm of Lust", it can be inferred that the talent [Infinite Desire] that he evolved this time has a great probability and has a deep connection with this world.
And since it is the seventh level, it means that before it, there are the first to sixth levels.
The Seven Deadly Sins: Arrogance, Envy, Anger, Laziness, Greed, Gluttony, and Lust.
In this way, the order and names of the seven worlds of original sin should be related to the arrangement of the seven deadly sins.
The goal of the mission is to ensure the smooth operation of the "Divine Descent Ritual...... God descended, God descended, will be called this name, could it be said that there are real "gods" in this world?!
Roy's heart shook slightly.
Although the Glow Empire exists in a shrine and worships a god called the "God of Glow Light", in reality, it is more like a religious violence organization that gathers supernatural forces under the pretext of believing in "gods".
In the records of the Turumbuir family, including the memories of the original body, there is no information about the miracle of the "God of Radiance" at all.
What is the difference between a god who does not show miracles and a god who does not exist?
If it weren't for the extremely powerful supernatural power in the upper echelons of the temple, this organization would have separated and collapsed long ago.
It's a bit of a stretch, back to the point.
Regardless of whether there are "gods" in the Seventh Realm of Original Sin and the Realm of Lust, Roy has only one goal: to achieve the mission goal.
And the mission gave three chances, which shows that it is definitely not an easy thing to achieve this goal.
With this in mind, Roy raised his steps and walked towards the small fishing village not far away.
There is so little information that is known so far, and in order to accomplish the mission objectives, he must at least know what the "Divine Descent Ritual" is and where it is performed.
Roy's existence has long attracted the attention of the residents of the small fishing village.
How could a stranger with such "clean and fair-skinned" skin not attract their attention in a generally dark fishing village?
Seeing Roy coming, the fishermen were a little miniaturized, Roy's appearance, temperament and clothing all represent that his identity is by no means simple, and he is most likely a noble nobleman.
After a commotion, an older, hunched old man came out and said in a respectful tone, "Your Excellency, do you have any orders?" I'm the head of Huayu Village, Old York. β
Roy stopped ten meters in front of the fishermen, and he could see the fear in the fishermen's eyesβa fear that stemmed from the fear of his possible identity, the "aristocracy", which was deep in his bones.
"Interesting ......"
Roy narrowed slightly.
The "vivid" performance of these fishermen is almost no different from that of a living person.
After thinking about it, he turned his gaze to Old York: "Old York, where is this?" β
Roy's words made old York's eyes look puzzled, but he didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly said: "My lord, this is the flower fishing village, north of the holy city of Cullon. β
Speaking of the Holy City of Callon, there is a different brilliance in the eyes of Old York, which is a kind of "honored" honor.
"I look at the adult's attire, it doesn't look like it's local, are you here to participate in the centennial 'divine descent ceremony' in the Holy City?"
Old York said cautiously.
"Oh?" Roy smiled: "Don't be nervous, old man, I did come from other places to participate in the 'Divine Descent Ceremony', and there are some things I don't understand, and I want to ask you." β
He took out a fine dark purple crystal from his bosom and threw it at the old man: "A little meaning." β
Purple debris glittering in the sunlight flew in, Old York subconsciously took it, his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "This is, magic crystal?!" β
"My lord, this is too valuable, if there is anything you want to ask, I must tell you everything I know, please take back this magic crystal."
Old York was terrified, and his hands trembling as he held the fragments of the magic crystal.
"It's okay, you take it." Roy's voice was as gentle as he could: "Ask questions, you always need a little consultation fee." β
It is also strange to say, after entering this talent evolution space, all the things on Roy's body are there, even the items in the space ring he wears on his hand are all available.
This magic crystal crumb was temporarily deducted from a high-purity magic crystal.
What made him find it interesting was that the name of the magic crystal in this world turned out to be the magic crystal?
From Roy's words, Old York felt sincerity, and hesitated for a moment before he trembled and took the shard of the magic crystal into his arms.
Xu felt that the "nobleman" in front of him was a little different, and after accepting the things, Old York's nervous expression eased a lot, and he said respectfully: "My lord, may I ask what you want to know, as long as Old York knows, I will tell you everything." β
"That's a big deal." Roy smiled, "Can you tell me all you know about the upcoming 'Divine Descent Ceremony' in the Holy City?" β
"I've always admired the 'Rite of Descent' and don't want to miss any information about it, you live in the north of the Holy City, it's closer, and you must know it much better than I do."
"If that's it, Old York still knows something." The old man's expression perked up, and he organized his language and said:
"The Rite of the Descent is a grand event held every 100 years in the Holy City, in front of the Cathedral of Purity in the Holy City."
Old York's eyes were full of yearning:
"In the Kagura Dance of the Pure Saintess, the great 'gods' will rain down divine light and sprinkle miracles. The divine light spreads to every corner of the world, and it is said that everyone who bathes in the divine light has the opportunity to listen to the oracles of the gods and receive the blessings of the gods. β
"Even lowly people like us have the possibility of being blessed."
"The closer you are to the place where the gods descended, the more likely you are to be blessed."
Old York's eyes were full of yearning.
"That's all I know."
"Tomorrow is the 'Divine Descent Ceremony', this lord, if you want to see the ceremony up close, you have to enter the city as soon as possible."
"The direction of the Holy City is over there."
"It's not easy to see the 'Divine Descent Ritual' up close."
Old York pointed in the direction of the south.
"......I see," Roy nodded knowingly after listening to the narration.
From Old York's words, he felt the deep belief of the people of this world in the "gods", and such a belief was almost invisible in the eyes of the people of the Radiance Empire.
Smiling at Old York and the others, Roy headed south.
He didn't ask any other questions, such as the names of the gods, information about the supernatural powers that might exist in this world, and so on.
The former can't ask, with the popularity of the "gods" in this world, his question is too suspicious, and the latter, Roy has observed, everyone in Huayu Village is ordinary people, even if they ask, they probably can't say anything.
That being the case, he might as well go straight to the holy city of Callon.
He believes.
There would be all the information he wanted to know.
β¦β¦
To the north of Huayu Village is a vast forest.
After a while, the density of the surrounding trees gradually decreased, until finally, an avenue large enough for eight carriages to run at the same time appeared in front of Roy's eyes.
Standing on the edge of the avenue, Roy looked up at the huge city with visible silhouettes in the distance.
Even from a considerable distance, he could see that the holy city of Carlon in the sun was pure white and radiating brilliance, like a city on earth.
Roy made his way down the avenue, and along the way, he met many people who had traveled to the holy city of Carlon like him.
However, unlike him, almost all the people who went to the holy city of Callon were carried by horse-drawn carriages of extraordinary quality.
He is the only one walking like him.
Fortunately, in order not to attract the attention of others, Roy walked in the woods on the side of the avenue, and these people who went to the holy city of Callon did not notice his existence.
At Roy's speed, it didn't take long for him to come to the front of the Holy City.
Raising his head and looking up at the nearby Holy City of Callon, Roy's eyes were tinged with a faint shock.
The walls of the holy city of Karlon are hundreds of meters high, and the whole body is made of white boulders, and the surface of these stones is carved with lines, which makes the walls fill the city with a faint light.
The 100-meter-high city wall...... What a magnificence.
Don't look at 100 meters It doesn't seem like much, but in fact, converted into a building with a blue star, 100 meters is almost equivalent to a 33-story building.
It is unimaginable that such a high wall would encircle a city that cannot be seen at a glance, and the resources and goods required to build it are unimaginable.
What frightened Roy even more was the glimmer of light emanating from the city walls.
The fluctuations of the shimmer light, very similar to magic, gave him a strong sense of threat.
It's a circle-like thing that envelops the whole city!
Roy's heart was awe-inspiring.
"Gotta be careful......"
The existence of the magic circle proves that there is extraordinary power in this world, and the level of power is definitely not low.
The entrance to the Holy City of Kallon, is a huge gate, guarded by well-armed knights of the Order.
The armor of these Order Knights is mainly white, painted with dark purple stripes, and on their chests, there is a mark of white and purple that resembles a blooming flower.
"Knights of the Order of the Pure Holy Order?"
Roy thought to himself.
From the mouth of Old York, Huayu Village, he learned that the church that serves the gods in this world is called the "Pure Holy Religion", and the "Divine Descent Ceremony" is also presided over by the Pure Holy Religion.
In other words, if he wants to achieve the goal of the mission, he will definitely deal with the Pure Holy Sect in the future.
There is one thing that Roy still doesn't know.
The goal of his mission is to ensure the smooth progress of the "divine descent ceremony", but how is this "smooth progress" defined?
Pure Religion...... Pure Saint ......
Roy muttered those two words.
According to known information, during the descent ceremony, the Pure Saint performed the Kagura Dance before a "miracle" occurred.
Could it be that the key to achieving the goal of my mission lies in the purity of the Holy Maiden?
Regardless of whether the Pure Saintess is the key or not, but using her as a breakthrough point, at least you can get useful news.
With this in mind, Roy settled down and walked towards the holy city of Callon.
