Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1651 End of the First Test

Suddenly, numerous flashes of silver light began to exit the spatial gate that was used to enter the Deep Sea Monster Assault test. It had been a normal occurrence so far since many people crushed their badges to flee from there. However, this time there was just a lot of them.

That's because the week of the test was over. Naturally, everyone was teleported outside the Dimensional Realm area, just like the others who failed previously.

Everyone looked around and immediately cheered for joy.

"We did it!"

"Holy shit! My dantian is completely empty!"

"You think you're the only one like that? My demon core is drier than sand!"

"Just another hour in that place, and I would be forced to leave."

Rean's group was in a much better condition, though. "Hahaha! See? I told you that we would have no issues with our Divine Energy consumption."

Erla, Min, and Habac were ecstatic! "I can't believe we passed the first test that easily!"

"That's because of Rean, of course!" Habac mentioned.

Min and Erla nodded as they looked at Rean, saying, "We don't know how you did it, but that was the key to our success. Thank you!"

Rean shook his head, telling them in response, "You talk as if I could have resisted on my own forever. It was thanks to everyone's efforts that we got to the end. Erla kept the right distance from the monsters without ever leaving the pre-determined area. Min and Habac's low consumption but highly effective attacks disrupted most of the monsters' ranged attacks. Lastly, any attacks that passed through the first defense were stopped by my Reversive Arcs. It was a team effort in the end." Thɪs chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . (ꜰ)ire.ɴet

On Roan's side, Krikei went straight to the thing he was most curious about. "Just what was that energy in your scythe? It wasn't Space Power or Divine Energy. However, it made your attacks just as powerful."

Lita and Vrie's attention was caught after that. They took longer to notice it, but they also understood that Roan's attacks had something extra in there too. "Indeed! We felt like you could slice through anything with that shit."

Roan shook his head, saying, "This is something I came up with. It's also possible to use with any other weapon, but it can't be taught. You need to learn it on your own. That's all I can say."

Krikei's group narrowed their eyes for a moment. However, Roan had been this secretive all the time until now. It wasn't anything new. "Fine, just make sure you're ready for the next test next month."

Roan nodded in response. "I also want to enter Jhiod, so that goes without saying."

Celis and Kentucky's group were a lot more straightforward. They didn't use anything impressive. The only thing was that they were strong. Simple as that. Naturally, they also agreed to join forces for the next test.

Suddenly, a man appeared above everyone in the hall. "Congratulations to those who completed the test. Your badges have been recorded in the sect, so you don't need to do anything. We know who passed the test and who didn't. For those who failed, you can simply try it next year."

Soon after, he waved his sleeve as several purple-colored badges flew in different directions. Soon, they landed in the hands of a few cultivators and demon beasts.

Rean and Roan could see jealousy in the eyes of pretty much everyone who looked at those purple-colored badges. It wasn't hard to tell what those badges meant after looking at the happy expressions on their owner's faces.

Sure enough, the man continued, "Also, congratulations to the 37 participants that have now concluded all 12 tests after the Deep Sea Monster Assault was over. You have all acquired the right to enter Jhiod Continent and join the Jhiod Sect. If you want, you can do that straight away by talking with the Jhiod Sect workers in the transfer room."

He continued, "As for the rest, I hope I can see even more of you pass the next test and complete all 12 tests."

Rean and Roan nodded after hearing that. 'So that's the proof that you passed all tests. It's quite simple.'

Rean then mentioned, 'I expected this test to be extremely hard due to the number of cultivators and demon beasts that succeeded. However, it was relatively easy.'

Roan disagreed with Rean. 'It wasn't. This was a resistance test, and I have to admit they did a very, very good job with it. This is definitely a very hard test. It's just that we had that cheat code called World Swallowing Cedar. Without Celis, even the two of us would have struggled to pass this test.'

'Well, that's true.' Rean agreed that much. 'Still, don't you think it to be strange? The system is giving us such a huge reward to complete all twelve tests. If it's this easy for us, don't you feel like there's something else?'

Sister Orb was the one to answer that question. [There isn't.]

Naturally, the twins' attention was caught by those words. 'How do you know?'

[Because of Celis.] Sister Orb answered. [Celis wasn't supposed to be part of the connection between the two of you, remember? It was nothing but a coincidence that it happened. The system calculated the chances of you passing the tests without Celis' power. After all, the system exists for you, not for him nor Kentucky.]

'Oh!' Rean was happy to hear that. 'So that's how it is. It didn't include Celis in its predictions.'

Roan warned Rean, though. 'Don't get ahead of yourself. Celis' Divine Energy supply can definitely help. However, do you think all the tests will be like this one, simple resistance?'

Rean's happiness immediately vanished after that. 'You truly know how to ruin one's mood, don't you?'

'Did I ruin your mood? Then, that's good.' Roan obviously couldn't care less about how Rean felt.

Rean ignored the guy and immediately looked at the next test. Of course, each test only happened once per month. Since the previous one only lasted one week, the next one wouldn't start so soon. 'Soul Land, huh?'
