Chapter 1784: Class Rank Up Trial
The portal that opened in front of us was enormous, and exuded a tremendous quantity of divine power, it was born from my System Law itself, after all, these Trials were made by the System Law to make us stronger. The system is incredible, capable of giving challenges and gain power from them, which it can then transfer to the users of it.Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com
The same is with the leveling system, absorbing energy from slain foes to level up, progressing and becoming stronger limitlessly... Well, not so limitlessly, once max level is reached, to level up even more, this Trial has to be completed.
"So what are these Trials anyways?" Benladann wondered, glancing at the portal.
"Think of them as the "price" you have to pay to get stronger," said Andromeda. "Something cannot be generated out of nowhere, something else has to always be given back. The System is capable of making that "something else" almost anything."
"Huh... Still don't quite get it," Benladann was confused.
"Me neither honestly," said Miranda. "How is it that you need a trial to exchange for power?"
"It's simple," I explained. "Challenges and difficult things make it so the System can gain Causality, which is a power related with Fate and Destiny, right?"
"Indeed, the System by itself, is not just a Unique Skill but what could be considered... a Cosmic Artifact of its own," said Andromeda. "Technically, I am the System and at the same time, I am a separate entity. The System is my body, but my mind clearly feels like my own self, so I call it differently, a being separate from me, yet that it is also... me."
"Huh, so by using this Causality... you gain power?" Benladann asked.
"More or less, yes," said Andromeda. "For example, if everything is "too easy" the "balancing" of the System is weakened, and you won't grow. Therefore, the System, now a Law, can alter the flow of Causality by itself and create Challenges to make it possible for advancements to be quick and swift."
"Ah yes! Your creation was really amazing, dear, so I decided to use its structure for the trials," she said. "It will be exactly as you described, but it is no longer made from Dreams and Nightmares, but the System Law itself, which encompasses many elements, including Creation! What you're going to see is not an illusion or a dream. So be careful."
"So we might see the story of someone else?" Miranda wondered.
"Hmm~" Andromeda smiled suspiciously. "I don't know, part of the Trial's creation is that I must let Random Algorithms and Internal Calculations create it for you. If I were to design it specifically for you through my own personal preferences, then it would completely lose its point. So! It might be like a Dream Dungeon, or it might be like real life, or it might be like both combined, or none! You'll have to see for yourselves."
She's being very cryptic about it! But I guess she's not wrong, we'll have to see for ourselves.
I'm kind of looking forward to this, honestly.
"Now, enough chitchat, you should get going. There's no time dilation due to the trial of the Flame Venerable being imposed into everything. But this Trial won't be short, you might be inside for over a day, so the sooner you get there, the better."
"So that's how it is... Alright then," I nodded. "Everyone, let's go!"
With my whole family at my side, the only ones aside from me who had reached max level, we moved inside the portal. I also brought my divine weapons, spirits, and the domains, all
capable of coming with us without issues.
The moment we passed through the portal, it felt like we were piercing through many spatial membranes, each one seemed heavier than the other.
