Chapter 1362 - 536: The 9 Stages of Advancing in the Dream Realm

Another Tower of Trial has entered the small world under Alka’s control.

This time, Nafutos, the controller of the Tower of Trial, watched the entire process.

He watched as the Tower of Trial was placed next to number 6.

Although these Towers of Trial were once unnumbered, Alka still assigned them numbers based on the order in which he collected them.

And now the one that Alka controls is number 7.

Nafutos looked at this Tower of Trial.

"To be honest, compared to when we first built it, it’s gotten a lot uglier now."

Hearing this, Alka turned to look at him.

"What did it look like before?"

Upon hearing this, Nafutos thought for a moment and waved his hand, changing the scene of the memory training field.

Then, 12 tall towers appeared on the field, each separated by considerable distance, but together the 12 towers formed a circle.

It was only then that Alka realized that the surrounding buildings were actually arranged in a circle.

This circle of buildings surrounded the 12 towers in the center.

Then the 12 towers encircled a vacant area in the center.

Alka looked at these 12 towers, each with different appearances, adorned with exquisite bas-reliefs and various styles of paintings.

As though symbolizing something.

"Very pretty, right? Now they’re blackened, with only the solid interior shell left. The beautiful decorations on the outside are completely shaved clean—what savages."

Nafutos murmured unhappily beside him.

Clearly, he had deep feelings for these 12 Towers of Trial, since it was said that he presided over their construction and invested a lot of effort, even merging himself into them.

Alka looked at the newly set Tower and asked, "Will this newly added tower bring any new functions?"

Upon hearing this, Nafutos shook his head, "No, there are no new functions. Though it might allow one more person in the memory training field."

"Is that so? Adding one more is good too."

After some time of navigation, Alka and his companions successfully acquired the 7th tower.

This 7th one was originally expected to require some trick to obtain.

However, it was previously mentioned that the divine orders of the Four Gods had been issued.

So the Church used coercive means to reclaim the 7th Tower of Trial, and the forces that originally controlled it and were unwilling to return it had no choice but to give it up obediently.

Clearly, faced with the Church’s force, they could only submit.

Thus Alka’s reception was relatively smooth.

Except for those who originally controlled this tower, they were visibly displeased to see him.

At this moment, they were already on their way to the 8th tower.

According to the latest news, there were no unexpected circumstances on the island where the 8th tower was located, so they should find it very easy to obtain.

Having just completed training, Chadite stood next to Alka, smiling as she said, "I hope the subsequent collections go as smoothly as these two."

After all, just the journey itself costs us too much time."

Alka smiled and nodded, "Rest assured, with the divine mandates of the Four Gods, the local churches will surely pay more attention and devote more effort to these Towers of Trial."

Chadite nodded, agreeing with him.

When Alka left the small world and came aboard the Dawn Sound, it had already sailed away from the island with the Tower of Trial, heading toward the next target.

Alka was on deck, looking at the documents in his hand.

He began calculating how much time their journey to the next target would take.

Looking at the documents, he couldn’t help but smile, it seemed this time wouldn’t take much travel time.

The distance between these two Towers of Trial was quite close; it looked as though it wouldn’t even take half a year, probably around three to four months.

...

In total, it’s been over a year since they started their battlefield training.

To say their actual strength has risen by much in over a year, the improvement speed is rather normal.

But their actual combat capabilities are significantly higher than before.

More than anything, they’ve enhanced their ability to handle multifaceted situations.

After all, many treasures have peculiar properties and effects, and Alka and his team haven’t experienced too much combat between Treasure Controllers.

Yet the battlefield allowed them to thoroughly experience it; various rules and abilities brought them all sorts of troubles and deaths. These carved deep into their memories.

Enabling them in the future, when facing similar real situations, to respond faster and prevent unnecessary casualties.

This was the most significant area of improvement in their strength.

After approximately three to four months of navigation.

They were gradually approaching the target this time.

Due to the location of the Tower of Trial, this time they should first reach the Tower of Trial, and then Landmark Island in half a month.

This Tower of Trial is about half-a-month’s distance from Landmark Island, qualifying as an island beyond the archipelago.

However, due to the nature of this Trial Island Landmark Island, it has long since been controlled by the surrounding Holy Mother Church.

You can even see a small church on it, along with some residents who’ve migrated to this island.

Evidently, the size of this Trial Island should be substantial; otherwise, the Church wouldn’t volunteer to install a church here.
