Chapter 502: Advanced: Enlightener

Chapter 503 Advanced: Enlightener

When the picture freezes, they once again have a colorful, bizarre hallucination like eating poisonous mushrooms.

Afterwards, Aiwas returned to his seat, and there was a bright light in front of him, in a pure white void.

And in front of him, there stood three heavy stone doors.

There were different runes on the three doors. From left to right, there was a burning candle, a cross with four equal sides, and a geometric sun composed of a circle, four large triangles, and four small triangles.

——[Candlelight Gate], [Life Gate], [Hope Gate].

These three stone doors symbolize the completion of the three job transfer tasks.

The candle was not filled at all, while the cross was filled about half, and the filled part was a gentle blue-green color, while the geometric sun had completely turned into gold and red.

The gaps between the second and third doors were shining with light, while the first door was completely closed.

As long as you complete one-third of the trial task progress, you can choose this job change. And if the job change conditions have been met, the door will glow.

"... Completed two trials." Aiwass whispered.

But what surprised Aiwas was that the third door where the Enlightener was located was actually optional.

According to Aiwass's memory, this profession seemed to appear relatively late. Before that, the only profession that could pass through the [Gate of Hope] was the monk profession - that was the more popular dedication profession in Horus and Parthia.

But now it seems... these professions in the real world do not always appear with the version update. Just like the Ascended Warlock and Mithra Worshiper, you can change your job as long as you meet the conditions.

"Strange..."

Aiwass remembered that in addition to the level of Illumination and Blessing, the job change to Enlightener also requires the "Light of Hope", "Light of Enlightenment" and "Light of Glory" three kinds of glorious marks. He originally did not plan to change his job to the Enlightener, but planned to advance one level and then change his job later - although he could change his job at the third energy level, the priest profession could only be cultivated to the fourth energy level at most.

These three marks require a job change task. Aiwass vaguely remembered that he helped other elves run three long-term tasks in the Church. This job change task told three stories, two of which were "helping the unfortunate to get hope" and "helping the frustrated to get glory", and he forgot the other one.

Do another task first to put the soul in a "thirsty light state". Then after each task is completed, you can collect the corresponding "glory mark". After the three marks are collected, you can enter the promotion ceremony to get the trial task.

... Aiwass thought there was something wrong with the process. Now it seems that he has indeed completed the pre-task.

Strange?

If it is to help others, Aiwas is indeed doing this kind of thing and has been doing it all the time. After so many years, it is not strange that he just completed three marks. But that "thirsty light state", Aiwas doesn't know what it is.

Now, Aiwas not only meets the conditions for the job change to "Illuminator", he can even change to the third job change of the priest, "Moonlight Scholar". That is an advanced job that can only be changed by the Son of the Moon, and it requires serving Hengwo alone. Aiwas is not very interested in it.

So, Aiwas chose the third door.

After he confirmed it, the remaining two doors turned into ashes like newspapers burned by fire.

And the third door moved to the front of Aiwas's eyes.

As the door creaked open, a light path was generated from under the door and spread to Aiwas's chair - the completeness of this path depends on the progress of the task.

And from the completeness of this path, Aiwas's [Beacon of Hope] seems to have been successfully completed.

So, Aiwas stepped onto the light path.

The moment he left his chair, everything around him, including the chair he just left, turned into nothingness. He was walking forward, and there was only one way here.

As Aiwas walked forward, a series of light curtains fell in front of his eyes.

That was the settlement points for Aiwas's promotion this time:

[Required tasks completed (points: 600)]

[Heart is the Sanctuary: Do not choose to hide in Moriarty Manor, and take the initiative to go to the Temple of Silver and Tin (points: 100)]

[Trial·Will of Candlelight: The total vitality lost by treating others exceeds the sum of all your vitality (uncompleted)]

[My Unforgettable Nature: Effectively treat others and keep the target alive (uncompleted)]

[Heart of Survival: Send as many family members and friends as possible away from Avalon safely (points: 300)]

[Trial·Life Watcher: Generate as many effective Treatment (points: 300)]

[Save Detective Sherlock: Ensure the survival of Sherlock Hermes (unfinished)]

[Love's Oath of Revenge: Kill Charles Droste (points: 500)]

[The Day of Destruction is Coming: Survive to the end without evacuating or leaving Glass Island (points: 500)]

[Trial: Beacon of Hope: Save the dying (points: 1000)]

[What Only I Can Do: Stop Xingti's conspiracy (points: 1000)]

[Ouroboros: Complete 'Shadow of Avalon' and make the survival rate of Glass Island civilians exceed 70% (points: 1000)]

[Total points are 5300, ranking first]

……ah?

Seeing this exaggerated score, Aiwass was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't believe it for a moment.

——In the end, Leah exploded into a mushroom cloud!

Aiwass wasn't sure how big Leah's explosion was. But at that scale, even if Leah blew up the mushroom cloud herself, I'm afraid Balrog would have to blow it up too. Under the series of explosions, it is estimated that the entire glass island will be blown into rubble.

Can this still survive 70%?

The blood of the civilians on Glass Island is really thick...

...Oh no, it seems to work?

Aiwass suddenly recalled that at the end of the first day, Shafiya was already evacuating 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 he could no longer remember the memory clearly.

It turns out that during the street fighting, the civilians had already almost evacuated? All that was left was the house and the people stationed inside who decided to resist, so General Xing Antimony decided to use the Colossus to directly bombard the houses...

Because there were not many civilians left on the glass island, there were not many casualties among civilians - and for the same reason, Xing Antimony's conspiracy was stopped because of this.

However, [Beacon of Hope] surprised Aiwass.

Did he save... so many people?

"Mortal person", and... how to determine it?

Thinking of this, another thought suddenly popped into Aiwas's mind:

"Premature death" is just a necessary evil——

That is Professor Moriarty's philosophy.

If "premature death" refers to people who are destined to die...

Aiwass was thinking in his mind, but he had already stepped into the open stone door.

He stepped out and found himself in the sea.

Aiwass was startled and almost thought he was going to fall. He was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat.

But there was a steady feeling under his feet - something was carrying him.

Aiwass looked up and saw bright sunshine, blue sky and white clouds.

And he was stepping on land.

The shallow water reaches up to the knees, and below is a smooth and stable land.

But I wonder if it was an illusion... Aiwass always felt that the island beneath him, the continent itself, seemed to be moving.

Suddenly, the ground beneath his feet began to shake violently.

Aiwass swayed for a moment, feeling a little unsteady on his feet, and finally regained his balance.

When he raised his head, his eyes suddenly opened wide——

I saw the "bow" in front of me suddenly lifted up, and the entire continent flew directly up!

The ground under Aiwass' feet trembled, and the overly smooth ground formed an oblique angle, causing Aiwass to slide directly backwards - he tried to squat down, but it was useless. In just the blink of an eye, Aiwass slid back more than a hundred meters, and was even about to fly out under constant acceleration.

But his slide slowly stopped.

Because after leaving the water, the scales under his feet turned into dry and huge black feathers at some point.

First there are grass-like fuzz, then they gradually swell. Like a huge ball of cotton, Aiwass is hidden in it.

The surrounding feathers grew larger and larger, covering Aiwass directly among them. Everything around him became dark. Those feathers were like giant trees that covered the sky, and he was just an insect crawling on the giant trees.

"long time no see……"

A rough and hoarse voice sounded: "Or should I say, first meeting?"

Aiwass suddenly turned around.

I saw that it was a tall, lanky man wearing a low-key, luxurious, slim-fitting black dress...or rather, it should be a man.

Because he has no face at all. Where the head should be, there were no facial features or hair, only a silver-black sphere shining with iridescence.

——Colorful black.

This ironic request seems so appropriate to describe it.

"...Or should I say, I have admired my name for a long time?"

After getting closer, the man's deep and hoarse voice became clearer, deep and magnetic.

Although it was completely different from the image described by the Nine Pillars Church - yet such a strong thought appeared in Aiwass's mind as clearly as a knife.

The man put his hands behind his back and slowly approached in a reserved and elegant manner. As if he was sizing up Aiwass, he looked at him carefully, and then let out two chuckles of satisfaction.

"When applying for a job, if both parties agree...what should you say?"

The man suddenly asked, "Congratulations?"

Without waiting for Aiwass to respond, he stretched out a hand.

Out of politeness and instinct, Aiwass subconsciously reached out his hand.

But just before holding it, his fingertips trembled slightly and shrank back a little.

Because that hand, like the man's head, has no skin...it flows with the mercury-like "colorful black" that reflects the rainbow.

At this time, Aiwass realized that the other person was actually a head taller than him - he was already over 1.8 meters tall, and this man was at least 1.95 meters tall.

Almost grabbing Aiwass's hand, the man took the initiative and took hold of Aiwass's hand that he wanted to pull away.

It was a very intuitive touch——

Cold, slimy, wet. Rather than holding hands, it is more like holding a ball of cold and cool mud... It's like a refrigerated liquid mask, and it's like shaking hands with someone covered in such liquid.

"Then... congratulations."

The man said slowly, with his low, hoarse voice, as if after a change of voice: "I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future."

-This man is the Lord of Scale Feathers.

At the moment of contact with the other party, Aiwas suddenly had such a thought in his mind.

Although he did not understand the man's words, he recognized the other party's identity.

The next moment, the illusion in front of him suddenly collapsed and turned into a dark world again. And the hand held by Aiwas was brought back by him directly.

He subconsciously opened his hand, and the hand that Aiwas had brought back from the forearm split into three balls of black mud, and shone with brilliance.

Two heavy buzzing sounds came out in front of Aiwas.

Two purple lights shone together--

[Heart of Burning Flame (Purple): All spells that require fire mana can be released by burning life; if you use this method to release a spell, the spell will be strengthened]

Then, an increasingly intense clanging sound rang in my ears--

A brilliant golden light hatched from it!

[Dissolving Soul (Gold): Your soul transforms into a more noble form, and blessings below the "medium" scale will no longer require rituals; you will be immune to sleep, charm, curse, and instant death spells, and your soul can be actively extracted from the body as a consumable]

Then, the last light that had not turned over for a long time suddenly began to vibrate violently.

It made a fierce clanging sound, as if something was about to drill out of it--

The next moment, the purple light suddenly shattered.

The same brilliant golden light bloomed from it!

[Grace of the Pillar God——]

[The Lord of Scales and Feathers has promoted an item for you]

[Rhythm of War (Gold): Every time you kill someone at close range, you will get a random one of the seven temporary enhanced states: Furious/Heroic/Swift/High/Adversity/Strong/Bloodsucking, which lasts for one minute; every time you get a repeated state, refresh the duration of the temporary state and heal yourself]

"Take it, this is your share."

The low and hoarse voice of the Lord of Scales and Feathers sounded in Aiwas's ears: "Or don't take it... I will also give you other things."

-Two golden items!
