But there was already a glimmer of fragile hope in her heart.

Alexia murmured, desperately wiping away the tears that kept flowing from her blind eyes.

A clear light permeated the mist, and the entire castle began to rise like a bubble.

A tiny glimmer of dawn light, delicate and silent, slipped into the sanctuary through the dissipating walls.

This five-day and five-night [Temple Evil Dinner] has also reached its final settlement moment.

This chapter corresponds to the plots of the following volumes. The third volume is about the Cardinals of the Northern Continent. The fourth and fifth volumes will be about light-hearted and funny daily life plots. The sixth volume is about the Krein Empire of the Southern Continent. The extra volume will be about the restoration of the Demon World.

I coded 6000 words today. I tried my best! Please give me the monthly tickets at the end and beginning of the month!

Chapter 173 Lanqi Discovers the Habit of the Great Love Poet

Lanci, who was originally in the corridor on the second floor preparing to return to the cathedral to find Hyperion and Frey, stopped and looked at the castle scene that was gradually dissolving.

"Oh, it looks like I don't have to walk anymore."

As the castle walls gradually disappeared, the light of dawn, at its strongest moment, was suddenly replaced by deep darkness.

In just a blink of an eye, Lanqi found himself in a transparent hut that seemed to be surrounded by the eternal starry sky.

Only a few stars twinkled sparsely, shining brightly as if telling a story that spanned tens of millions of years, and Frey and Hyperion were also here, bringing enough light to their sight to see the scene clearly.

This is a wonderful space where the real world and the shadow world are intertwined, forming a critical edge.

On the transparent barrier not far away, a spreading crack quietly appeared, and a few strands of tranquil purple light overflowed from the gap. Later, as long as they passed through this small void door, they could return to the real world and return to the familiar Ikerite campus life.

The settlement of the shadow world has not yet appeared.

After the last experience, Lanci and Hyperion are convinced that if there are too many situations where the mechanism does not go into effect during the real shadow world challenge, the settlement process of the shadow world will be slightly longer.

I don't know how long this will be slow.

Lanci looked at Hyperion and Frey with a smile, ready to chat with them.

"Our reward this time shouldn't be bad either."

Lanqi assured them both confidently.

"After all, the score was increased by the merits of sacrifice..."

Hyperion covered her cheeks. In order to make her reward better this time, Lanqi asked her to activate the solar energy merit machine several times herself.

Although she was very grateful to Lanqi, the longer she stayed with him, the more she couldn't be a human being even if she wanted to.

“I’m kind of looking forward to it.”

The magic cards on Frey's body were all given to him by his teacher, Sfintos, the dean of the Knight Academy, but currently only purple-rare cards were given to Frey.

When he thought about earning his first pink sacred or even orange epic magic card, Frey had a happy worry -

Should I use it myself or sell it for money to take a chance?

"Frey, if you get the top magic card that suits you and sell it, I don't think Dean Sventos will let you go..."

Hyperion naturally knew the old master who was the dean of the Knights' Academy.

He was also once the teacher of Duke Miaia Alanzare.

The fact that Frey was noticed by old man Spentos shows that he has talents that are not inferior to those of Migaia, who is known as an all-rounder.

Just as the three of them were chatting in the student union as usual, in this quiet and strange space, the information that suddenly emerged finally began to flash, and the pure white halo rolled line by line in the dark space.

[The Shadow World Sanctuary Villain Dinner has been cleared. 】

[Calculation completed, evaluation being generated.]

[Since the challengers Ranch, Hyperion, and Frey entered as a team, the team settlement method is adopted. 】

[In this mystery film world with a total duration of 120 hours, the challenger found the betrayer in 11 hours and 30 minutes, and completed the full information disclosure in 17 hours and 58 minutes. ]

[The team achieved the following achievements. 】

[Noble Teacher SS - Under your influence, most creatures will evolve in just one day, and for those that cannot evolve, you will help them evolve in another way.]

[Evil Feast A——Successfully achieved the betrayer's goal in this mystery movie world, rescued and controlled Viscount Augustine]

[Foreign War Expert S——The traitor fell into your trap and was tortured to pieces by you]

[Ritual Music Enlightenment E--At your request, the poet of great love played the organ seriously, instead of choosing to transform it into a stunning kitchen appliance according to her preferences]

[Vampire Release SSS - You have released and sealed Viscount Augustine more than 10,000 times in total]

[Conscience D——You are a kind witch, only you are a human]

"These should belong to Hyperion and me."

Lanqi looked at the refreshing light screen and said happily to the other two.

"…What the hell is that ritual enlightenment?"

Although there is a lot to complain about, Hyperion finds the most incomprehensible thing about the achievements of the great poet of love.

"Could it be that the poet of great love has always been thinking about that organ?"

She asked puzzledly.

"I was wondering why she was always staring at the organ in the chapel. I thought she wanted to play for a while longer."

Frey nodded, finally understanding the habits of the great poet.

It turns out that what was burning in her eyes was not the soul of music, but the soul of a craftsman.

"I have to keep a closer eye on my summon next time. She's too weird. I can't let her get close to any expensive musical instruments."

Lanqi was a little scared.

The poet of great love has complete self-awareness, and even Lanqi can't guess what she is thinking. Unexpectedly, she really seems to be seriously ill.

If she accidentally damages some of the kingdom's treasured musical instruments, the losses caused by the summoned creature will be charged to the summoner, and Lanqi may even go bankrupt.

While they were communicating, the evaluation of Shadow World continued to refresh.

[Famous Detective SS——You are a detective who has both wisdom and force. Even the enemy cannot tell whether you solve the case by force or by intelligence.]

[Castle Protector C - Because of your efficient case solving, the bedroom door was not destroyed by the betrayer on the first night. You have protected Lichtens Castle intact.]

[Good news for vampires S——Thanks to your efforts, vampires have gained an unprecedented evolutionary direction, Mummy]

[Achievements sorting is completed and evaluation generation is completed. 】

[The nature of a killing game has changed because of your presence. The two traitors that the Templar villains originally pointed out are more like two people compared to you.]

[Comprehensive evaluation: SSS]

[Rank increase: Ranch level 3 → level 4, Hyperion level 4 → level 5, Frey level 4 → level 5. ]

At the moment when the rewards were settled, all three of them achieved a breakthrough in rank.

Lanqi even found that he had just reached the fourth level and was not far from the fifth level.

For him who is at level 3, challenging the level 5 Shadow World is an excessive reward, not to mention that he has an SSS rating.

Frey, who was feeling this divine enlightenment for the first time, clenched his fists in surprise.

"Frey, how do you feel?"

Ranch asked.

Compared to him and Hyperion, Frey's rank upgrade should bring the most obvious changes.

“…Is this the fifth level? If I fight the Saint of Destruction in the jungle at night, I can kill her.”

Frey was convinced that as his rank rose, part of his wolf characteristics had awakened again.

Lan Qi nodded.

When Frey was at the fourth level, his strength was comparable to that of the fifth level.

Now he has reached the fifth level. Although there is a watershed between the fifth and sixth levels, Frey has the blessing of race at night, and he cannot be underestimated even in the sixth level.

It can be said that this is the strongest fighting force in their team at present.

[Rewards: Immortal Glazed Tears (Level 4 Epic Equipment Card), Wolf King’s Proud Heart (Epic Material), Witch’s Warm Companionship (Level 5 Sacred Equipment Card). ]

Soon, along with the appearance of this information, three balls of light surrounded by mist also floated towards them.

Chapter 174 Lanqi's Epic Loot

In the dark critical space dotted only with stars.

The three of them received their respective rewards.

However, they looked at each other's three magic cards and props.

Unbound and ownerless items are still in a sealed state, so it is easy to determine their effects through identification magic.

The orange epic card in Lanqi's hand, which was emitting a frosty atmosphere and surrounded by a glass halo, was obviously extraordinary.

In the very center of the card, a mysterious necklace is looming. The chain is connected by a lively, non-physical silver light. The pendant is a teardrop-shaped glass stone that flashes different colors under the light. Below the pendant, a line of tiny ancient characters is engraved on it. No one can recognize its meaning. They only know that the glass teardrop radiates a warm light, like a pearl that illuminates darkness and dispels death.

【Eternal Tears of Glaze】

[Category: Equipment Card]

[Level: Orange Epic]

[Attribute: Strengthen/Regenerate]

【Level: 4】

[Effect: After wearing this necklace, the more buffs and debuffs you have, the higher the damage reduction and all attribute enhancements you will get. When you receive fatal damage, you will be immune to it and recover to full status. The cooldown period is 30 days. It cannot be stacked with other card effects of damage reduction and fatal damage immunity. ]

[Note: Late at night on the fifth day, everyone was dead, and the Son of the Sun could no longer wait for the next dawn. The wolf gave him his heart, and the witch gave him her blood. Seeing the Son of the Sun coming back from hell, this time, it was Viscount Augustine's turn to feel fear.]

"With this equipment, Lanqi, you will become a mage tank. Mages of the same level can't beat you at all."

Hyperion murmured in surprise.
