Chapter 212 Mage Tent
Seeing that Richard could not pass the test of the Holy Light Ritual Array, Iluna said regretfully:
“What a shame. I wanted to see what Richard would encounter during the Holy Light Ritual. I think Richard’s ritual would be very interesting.”

[Are you willing to give up everything and walk the path of faith again]

“Indeed.” Richard looked at the golden subtitles in front of him and said pretentiously, “I think so too. I am also curious about what kind of test the Holy Light Ritual Array will give me. It’s a pity that I can’t see it.”

He blinked, but the golden subtitles in front of him were not affected by his blinking. No matter how his eyelids moved, the subtitles were firmly glued to his retina.

“Okay, now that the Holy Light Ritual Array has been set up, it’s time for us to go back.” Iluna put her hand on Dong Luo’s shoulder and pulled Dong Luo to her side.

“I will sleep with you at night. The last angel assassination was a sting operation by Xingge and I. Although it looked thrilling, everything is under our control. But we are unfamiliar with the place and have no arrangements. I can’t let anything happen to you.

Don’t worry, I’ll sleep next to you two at night and won’t disturb you two from kissing, is that okay? You won’t be unhappy, right?”

“Oh.” Dong Luo cried out, a little embarrassed, “You are willing to protect me, I am only grateful in my heart, how can I not be happy. As long as Teacher Li agrees, it will be fine.”

“I have no objection. Our lives are at stake. I hope the more people there are, the better. How about Brother Zack and Brother Macedonia come too?”

“Then let’s have five of us together. If there’s not enough room, I’ll sleep on the ceiling.”

“No problem. If there are no rooms, I will use earth magic to build a war castle. I have just learned the art of castle making. I can build a castle with four bedrooms and a living room on the ground in minutes.” Macedonia said with a smile.

The group of people were playing, chatting and laughing, and gradually left the Mage Tower.

Richard mingled in the crowd, occasionally echoing their words, but his attention was not on the conversation. Instead, he was staring at the golden subtitles in front of him.

[Are you willing to give up everything and walk the path of faith again?]

“Lord Dragon of Light? Is that you? Is this the revelation you are giving me?”

“What will I lose if I agree? Will I be punished by you if I don’t agree?”

“Give up everything. What does this include? Do I have to give up my spellcasting ability, Saint Laurent Prison, and the power bestowed on me by the God of War Tanan?”

“Great God, would you be willing to give a hint to a small and ignorant me?”

Richard kept asking questions in his mind as he walked, but no matter what he asked, the subtitles in front of him did not change.

“This…how should I choose?” Richard was a little depressed.

The Holy See is the biggest rival of the Silver City-State. Richard has done a lot of research on the Holy See. He knows very well that in the hearts of the priests and nuns of the Holy See, the Dragon of Light is an extremely great and noble being.

Elrath, the Dragon God of Light, leads humans, light spirits, and angels. He is worshiped as the sun god, and his ministry includes authority, truth, loyalty, and justice.

His followers follow his guidance, seeking to illuminate dark places, conquer evil, and pursue the true meaning of personal honor and heroism.

Elras, the Dragon God of Light, is the main god of all Holy Empires (temple forces). This Holy Empire not only includes the Holy See, but also some small kingdoms and principalities that are dependent on the Holy See.

As one of the highest-level beings in the entire world, the Dragon God of Light has an unimaginably noble status in the Yasa world.

“Give up everything and walk the path of faith again… Does this mean that I should become the lackey of the Dragon God of Light?
Being a lackey of the Dragon God of Light and being a lackey of the Holy See are two different things.

I definitely won’t be a lackey of the Holy See. Not to mention giving it up, I don’t even want to give up the barbaric tyrant profession that Tanan gave me.

But being the lackey of the Dragon God of Light is different. Maybe I can become the legendary chosen one of God, the spokesperson of the Dragon of Light in the mortal world, with a religious status that even exceeds that of the Pope of the Holy See and the seven saints of virtue.

As long as there is faith in the Dragon of Light, everyone must obey my orders. The entire Holy Empire, almost one-third of the Yasha world, will become my subordinates. “

Richard was really tempted. But he did not choose to agree. Instead, after careful consideration, he shook his head very cautiously and said in his heart: “Respected Dragon God of Light. I am honored to receive your appreciation, but I have a mission given to me by another great god besides you.

As a weak person, I have no power, let alone the ability to abandon the power and mission He has given me. Unfortunately, I cannot give up everything and walk the path of faith again. “

The moment Richard made up his mind, the subtitles in front of Richard suddenly changed.

[As it should be]

The four big words flashed by and disappeared in an instant. Richard felt his body relax, as if an extremely distant gaze had left him.

“Lord Dragon of Light! Wait! Lord! Can I ask you a question?

God! Don’t go, God!”

Richard screamed in his heart, but no matter how excited he was, that gaze never returned to him.

This made Richard feel a little complicated.

It was as if a rich woman parked a sports car in front of him, opened the door and asked him, “Hey, you’re good-looking, wanna get in?”

He replied: “Auntie doesn’t make appointments.”

So the rich woman said forget it and drove away. She accelerated to 100 kilometers per hour in less than two seconds, and didn’t even give Richard a chance to breathe in the exhaust gas.

Although it was his own decision, Richard still felt a little disappointed that an opportunity to change his own destiny slipped away from him. This made him walk a little slower.

“What’s wrong?” At this moment, Macedonia keenly noticed that something was wrong with Richard. He slowed down his pace, walked to Richard’s side, and asked in a low voice: “What’s wrong, brother Richard? Why do you look unhappy?”

“Brother Macedonia.” Richard frowned and asked, “As far as I know, the Dragon of Light hasn’t responded to the Pope of the Holy See for a long time, right?”

“Of course, it’s not just the Dragon God of Light, the seven dragons have stopped responding to believers.” Macedonia shrugged and said, “Everyone is speculating whether there is a problem in the divine realm of the Yasha world, which has caused the dragon gods to stop responding to the mortal world.

There has always been a saying among the people that the reason why demigods can no longer become true gods like the seventh dragon, Sa Ailan, is because something happened in the divine world. “Richard took a deep breath. If the dragon god really couldn’t contact the mortal world, then who had just cast the subtitles in front of him? A prank by the strong? Or a trick by the outer gods?

If the Dragon Gods can actually connect with the mortal world, then why do they hide themselves and not care about worldly affairs?

Richard raised his head, and a special feeling rose in his heart. He could feel that he seemed to be particularly special in this world. Some special beings that he could hardly imagine favored him.

After much thought, the only special thing Richard could think of was that he was from Blue Star and was a time traveler.

“Could it be that those gods actually know my identity as a time traveler, and that time travelers have a unique meaning to this world?
But even if I am a time traveler, what’s the use?
The world of Yasa is completely different from my real world, from physical parameters to the basic structure of the world.

The technology I know in the real world cannot be reproduced in this world. Even if it can be reproduced, it is meaningless. The magic in this world is too convenient and fast, and the productivity generated by the use of magic power far exceeds the technological level of the real world. “

“What are you two whispering about in the back? Hurry up and catch up.”

Just as Richard was deep in thought, Iluna’s loud shout interrupted his thoughts.

“Coming.” He and Macedonia responded in unison, quickening their pace to catch up.

Arriving at the rest camp, everyone was a little speechless to find that the camp arranged for them by the army was simply a four-person version of a wizard’s camping tent.

This mage camping tent is a bit cramped and shabby. Its canvas material has become dull due to years of wind and rain. The surface is covered with signs of wear and tear, and occasionally a few patched cracks can be seen, allowing a slight chill and faint light to penetrate.

The entrance of the tent was half-covered by a faded canvas curtain. There might have been intricate magic runes drawn on the curtain, but now only some vague traces could be vaguely made out. I’m afraid that even the protective magic circle could not be opened.

In the corner of the tent, a broken magic lantern flickered with a faint light. It was the only light source outside the tent. Unfortunately, the magic lantern flickered due to years of disrepair.

Now everyone doesn’t have to worry about how to arrange accommodation to protect the saint, and it’s not possible for everyone to live separately.

“Executive Officer Iluna, the Lord said that this is the center of the island. All military camps are located here. If something happens, the troops on the entire island can arrive here to provide support as quickly as possible.

All our war magic cannons are aimed at this place. Once an assassin from the Holy See appears, thousands of magic will arrive immediately, and even legendary heroes will have to stay. This is the only way to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

You will stay here tonight, and your activity range is five kilometers. Please do not leave the activity range at will to avoid any misunderstanding. It would be bad if you were injured by mistake. “

The army’s guiding master left some words and walked away arrogantly.

“This is too much. I’m going to protest to that wizard.” Seeing the other party leave, Zach was the first to quit. He knocked his pipe hard on the stone and said, “Giving us this thing to live in is simply humiliating us.

It’s not that I can’t live in this tent. It’s just that with our status, we shouldn’t live in this thing.”

“Okay, just stay here. It’s just for one night and it will pass.” Iluna stretched out her hand to stop Zack.

“He’s hoping we’ll cause trouble so he can have an excuse to deal with us. We’re on his territory, so we should just bow our heads. It’s no big deal.”

Macedonia raised his eyebrows, tossed the magic book in his hand up and down, and asked, “I use magic to build a castle?”

“Don’t. It’s too noisy. That’s no different from causing trouble.” Iluna waved her hand and said, “They want us to live in this tent, so let’s just live in it.”

“You…are you going to endure this?” Zack and Macedonia looked at each other and both felt that this was not like Iluna’s character.

“Just bear with it.” Iluna smiled and said, “But since the tents they provided us don’t have enough protection, it’s reasonable for us to set up some protective measures to protect the Saint.”

The corners of Iluna’s mouth curled higher and higher, and her eyes flashed with malicious light, which made Richard shudder.

Macedonia and Zack understood what was happening and gave Iluna a thumbs up in an ambiguous way.

“As expected of the big sister, so smart!”

That night, although there were five people spending the night together, only Richard and Dong Luo slept under the same quilt in the tent. Iluna and the other three did not sleep.

They spent an entire night setting up various reaction arrays within a five-kilometer radius around the tent.

Bury firewalls, electric grids, buried spikes, and freezing disasters…

These reaction arrays are all invisible magic, and their duration is more than a month. They are like magic mines. Anyone who steps on them will be blown to pieces.

The difficulty of cleaning this kind of reaction array is much higher than that of setting it up. Even for a legendary wizard, it would take ten days or half a month to clean it up.

The mage commander changed the tent for Iluna, which was just to annoy Iluna, but I didn’t do any real harm to her. Iluna and her friends also annoyed each other in return, but they didn’t do any real harm to me, it was equal retaliation.

Even if both sides take the issue too seriously, there won’t be any trouble.

The next day, Richard saw the wizard who came to pick everyone up to the Mage Tower. His hair was disheveled and his body was covered with burn marks. He stood five kilometers away from the tent and said with gritted teeth, “The time is almost up. All the candidates have been taken to the Mage Tower by our airship.

Executive Officer Iluna, please take the Saint away from the bomb site you set up and go to the Mage Tower for the assessment.”

“Hey, hey, hey, you have to make your words clear. This is not a bomb nest. It’s just a magic defense array to protect the little saint.”

Zach took a puff of his pipe and said, “Your protection is insufficient. It won’t be a big problem for us to reinforce it, right? We in the Dome Mage Corps like to make sure everything is foolproof just like you do. Don’t make a fuss.”

“You!” Master Jie Yin was about to explode, but suddenly, he calmed down as if he had received an order, took a deep breath, swallowed his anger, and said loudly: “Okay! No problem.

The completion of the Church University is the common expectation of our Silver City-State and the Holy See. We hope that this university can bring us true peace and prevent the mages in our army from shed blood and sacrifice meaninglessly.

Please follow me, don’t delay the exam. Please!”
