Chapter Fifty-Nine: Advanced: The Enlightener
When the picture freezes, they are reminded of the strange hallucinations of eating poisonous mushrooms.
Ivus then returned to his seat, his eyes bright and in a pure white void.
In front of him, there stood three heavy stone doors.
There are different runes on the three doors. From left to right, on the stone door, there is a burning candle, a cross as long as four sides, and a geometric sun composed of a circle and four large triangles and four small triangles.
- [Candle Gate], [Door of Life], [Door of Hope].
These three stone doors symbolize the completion of the three transfer tasks.
The candle was not filled at all, and the cross was about half filled, and the part that had been filled was a gentle blue-green, and the geometric sun had completely turned gold and red.
The second and third doors were lit up in the gaps, while the first was completely closed.
As long as you complete one-third of the Trials mission progress, you will be able to choose this class transfer. And if the conditions for a job transfer have been met, the door will glow.
“…… Completed two trials. Ivus whispered.
But to Aihuas's surprise, the third door where the Enlightener was located was actually optional.
According to Eivas's memory, this profession seems to have appeared relatively late. Until then, the only professions that could pass through the Gate of Hope were the warrior monks - that was the more popular profession of devotion in Horus and the rest of the country.
But now it seems...... These classes in the real world don't always seem to come with the update. Just like the Ascendant Warlock and Mithra, you can change classes as long as you meet the conditions.
"Strange ......"
Ivas remembered that in addition to the level of illumination and blessing, those who transferred to the Radiance also needed to obtain three sigils of radiance: "Light of Hope", "Light of Enlightenment", and "Light of Glory". Originally, he didn't plan to change to the Enlightener, but planned to advance to another level, and then make up for the transfer later—although the third level could be transferred, the profession of priest could be cultivated to the fourth level at most.
These three sigils require a job transfer mission, and Ivus vaguely remembers that he was helping other elves run three long-term missions on the Church side. This job change mission tells three stories, two of which are "Helping the Less Fortunate Get Hope" and "Helping the Disappointed Get Glory", and the other one is forgotten.
Let's do another task first, so that the soul is in a "thirsty state". Then, after each mission is completed, you can collect the corresponding "Radiance Mark". After the Triple Mark is collected, you can enter the promotion ceremony to get the trial mission.
…… Aihuas thought there was something wrong with the process. Now it seems that he has indeed completed the pre-task.
Odd?
If it was to help others, it was something that Ewass did, and always did. After so many years, it is not surprising that exactly three kinds of imprints have been completed. But that "thirsty state", Ivus didn't know what it was.
Now, not only has Eivus met the conditions for changing to a "Enlightener", but he can even become a third "Moonlight Scholar" that the priest only appeared in the later stages. It's an advanced profession that can only be transferred by the son of the moon, and you need to serve Heng Me alone. Ivas didn't have much interest in it.
So, Ivas chose the third door.
Once he had done so, the remaining two doors were reduced to ashes like newspapers burned by fire.
The third door shifted to Ivus's gaze.
As the door creaked open, a path of light spawned from under the door and spread towards Evas's seat—the completeness of the path depended on the progress of the mission.
And judging from the completeness of this path, Ivus's [Beacon of Hope] seems to have been successfully completed.
So, Ivus set out on the path of light.
The moment he left his chair, everything around him, including the chair he had just left, was reduced to nothingness. He was walking forward, and there was only one way here.
As Ivus walked forward, curtains of light fell in front of him.
That's the settlement points for this promotion of Aihuas:
[Required Quest Completed (Points: 600)]
[The Heart is the Sanctuary: Don't choose to hide in Moriarty Manor, take the initiative to go to the Temple of Silver and Tin (Points: 100)]

[Ouroboros: Complete 'Shadow of Avalon' and increase the survival rate of the civilians of Glass Island to over 70% (Points: 1000)]
[Total points 5300, ranked first]
…… Yes?
Seeing this exaggerated score, Ivas was stunned for a moment, and was a little incredulous for a while.
- In the end, Leah exploded into a mushroom cloud!
Ivus wasn't quite sure how big Leah's bomb was. But at that scale, even if that mushroom cloud was blown up by Leah herself, I'm afraid the fire demon would have to blow it up with it. Under the series of bombings, it is estimated that the entire glass island will be blown into ruins.
Can this survive 70%?
The blood of the civilians on the Glass Island is so thick......
…… Oh no, it seems to work?
Ivus suddenly remembered that at the end of the first day, Shafiya had already evacuated the people of Glass Island. At that time, Bishop Mathers came back against the crowd. After that, his consciousness suddenly blurred for two days, and the memories in between were no longer remembered.
It turns out that during the street fighting, the civilians were actually almost evacuated? All that was left was the house and the people stationed inside who decided to resist, so General Star Antimony decided to use the Colossus to bombard the houses directly......
Since there weren't many civilians left in the Glass Island, there weren't many casualties among the civilians - and again, the Star Antimony plot was stopped because of this.
It was the [Beacon of Hope] that surprised Ivus.
He saved ...... So many people?
"The one who will die" is ...... How is it determined?
Thinking of this, another thought suddenly popped into Aihuas's mind:
"Premature death" is just a necessary evil-
That's what Professor Moriarty is all about.
If "premature death" refers to those who are bound to die......
Ivas thought in his head, but he had already stepped into the open stone door.
He stepped out and found himself in the middle of the ocean.
Ivus was startled, almost thinking he was going to fall. He was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat.
But there was a steady touch under his feet—something was carrying him.
Ivas looked up, the sun was shining, the sky was blue and the clouds were white.
And he was stepping on land.
The shallow water covers the knee down to the knees, and below is a smooth and steady piece of land.
But I don't know if it's a delusion...... Ivas always felt that the island beneath him, the continent itself, seemed to be moving.
Suddenly, the ground beneath his feet began to shake violently.
Ivus swayed for a moment, feeling a little unsteady on his feet, and finally regained his steadyness.
When he looked up, his eyes widened suddenly—
I saw that the "bow" in front of me suddenly lifted up, and the whole continent flew up directly!
The ground shook beneath Ivus's feet, and the overly slippery ground formed an angle, allowing Ivus to slide straight backwards - he tried to crouch, but to no avail. In the blink of an eye, Ivas slid backwards for more than a hundred meters, and even flew out directly under the continuous acceleration.
But his slide slowly stopped.
Because after leaving the water, the scales under his feet somehow turned into dry and huge black feathers.
At first they are grassy fluffy, then they gradually swell. Like a huge mass of cotton, hiding Ivas in it.
The feathers around it grew larger, covering Ivus directly in it. Everything around him was dark, and the feathers were like giant trees that obscured the sky, and he was nothing more than worms crawling on top of the giant trees.
"It's been a long time......"
A rough and hoarse voice sounded: "Or should I say, the first meeting?" ”
Ivus turned his head suddenly.
I saw that it was a tall and thin man wearing a low-key and luxurious, black slim-fitting dress...... Or rather, it should be a man.
Because he doesn't have a face at all. Where it should have been a head, there were no features or hair, only silver-black spheres that shone with iridescent brilliance.
- Colorful black.
This ironic request is so apt to describe it.
“…… Or should I say, what about the long-admired daimyo? ”
As he got closer, the man's deep, hoarse voice became clear, deep and magnetic.
Although it was completely different from the image described by the Church of the Nine Pillars, such a strong thought appeared as clearly as a knife and an axe in Aihuas's mind.
The man approached slowly with his hands behind his back, reserved and graceful. As if looking at Ivus, he looked at him carefully, and then let out two satisfied chuckles.
"When applying, if both parties agree to ...... What should be said? ”
The man suddenly asked rhetorically, "Congratulations?" ”
Before Ivus could respond, he held out a hand.
Out of politeness and instinct, Ivas subconsciously reached out his hand.
But just before he grasped it, his fingertips trembled slightly and shrank back a little.
For the hand is the same as a man's head, and it has no skin...... There is a "colorful black" like mercury reflecting the rainbow.
At this time, Aihuas realized that the other party was actually a head taller than him - his height was already more than 1.8 meters, and this man was at least 1.95 meters.
Nearly snatching Ivus's hand, the man stepped forward and took Ivus's hand that he wanted to pull away.
That's a very intuitive touch --
Cold, sticky, damp. It wasn't so much a handshake as a cold, cool lump of mud...... It's like a refrigerated liquid mask, and it's like shaking hands with someone covered with such a liquid.
"Then ...... Congratulations. ”
The man said slowly, his low, hoarse, voice-like voice: "I hope we will have a good time working together in the future." ”
- This man is the Lord of Scales.
The moment he came into contact with the other party, such a thought suddenly popped into Aihuas's heart.
Although he couldn't understand the man's words, he recognized the other party's identity.
The next moment, the illusion in front of him suddenly collapsed, and it turned into a dark world again. The hand that was held by Ivus was directly brought back by him.
He subconsciously opened his hand, and the hand that had been brought back by Ivas from his small arm split into three clouds of black mud and shone brightly.
Two heavy buzzing sounds erupted in front of Aihuas's eyes.
Two purple rays of light shined together—
[Burning Heart (Purple): All spells that require fire-attribute mana can be released by burning life; If you cast a spell this way, the spell is enhanced.
Immediately after, an increasingly intense clanging sound sounded in my ears—
Brilliant golden brilliance hatches from it!
Dissolving Soul (Golden): Your soul transforms into a more sublime form, and blessings below the "medium" scale will no longer require rituals; You will be immune to sleep, charm, curses, and instant death spells, and your soul can be actively withdrawn as a consumable]
Immediately afterward, the last ray of light that had not been turned over for a long time suddenly began to vibrate violently.
It made a loud clang, as if something was about to emerge from it—
The next moment, that purple brilliance suddenly shattered.
The same brilliant golden brilliance blooms from it!
【Pillar God's Grace——】
[The Lord of Scales has promoted an entry for you]
[Rhythm of War (Golden): Every time you complete a kill at close range, you will gain one of the seven temporary enhanced states of Berserk, Heroic, Swift, Exalted, Adversity, Strong, and Vampire, which lasts for one minute; Each time you get a duplicate status, refresh the duration of the temporary status and heal yourself]
"Take it, it's your share."
The low, hoarse voice of the Lord of Scales rang in Aihuath's ears, "Or not...... I'll give you something else too. ”
- Two golden entries!
