Chapter 834: Chapter 263 Divine Ruin_4


    What does reality mean?


    Leonard Churchill sensed there was a problem, “What’s happened?”


    Catherine Carter, listening with no less caution, countered instead of answering, “When was the last time we met?”


    As soon as Leonard heard that, he knew it was about the password and responded without hesitation, “Lion City train station.”


    “Phew...”


    Upon hearing that, the seriousness in Catherine’s expression finally eased.


    She confirmed that this was indeed Leonard.


    And Leonard also guessed that her asking this meant there could be another “Leonard Churchill.”


    ...


    Having confirmed that Leonard was a human, Catherine and her group also breathed a sigh of relief.


    They walked and talked at the same time.


    “What’s the situation?”


    “You haven’t encountered ‘your shadow’?”


    “What is a shadow?”


    “...”


    “It’s a copy of you. This space will create an identical copy of you, with everything the same except for the memories, combat power, and so on. It shadows you like a ghost. You can only kill it yourself. Otherwise, you will be killed by it.”


    “Huh?”


    “It’s probably a type of trial. After killing it, you will gain some martial skills or supernatural knowledge that fits well with you.”


    “...”


    Listening to Catherine and the others’ description, Leonard immediately understood.


    So this Mysterious Realm has this function, too.


    Killing your own shadow could yield exclusive rewards; this was undoubtedly a test of inheritance.


    In the Ruined Building, a group of young people who had been terrified for a whole day and night slumped on the ground, finally daring to breathe a sigh of relief.


    They had finally found a place where they could rest easy.


    Catherine responded, “A ‘Law Scroll’ that highly resonates with me.”


    As she spoke, the corner of her eye twitched, “You’re not planning to lure out ‘your shadow,’ are you?”


    No need to ask, her understanding of this old friend left no doubt in her mind that this was exactly his intention.


    Others would avoid it at all costs, but this guy’s character meant he would definitely do it.


    Just like that time at Summer Shepherd’s... he could have passed more easily with a time reversal, but he chose to leave some useless information for the thrill of it.


    Thinking this, Catherine gave him a deep look without offering persuasion, only saying, “This Mysterious Realm is very special, don’t mess around.”


    Leonard simply smiled and said nothing. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he countered, “Do you know what this place is?”


    Others might not know, but this Miss Lionheart, with her wealth of knowledge, might well have an idea.


    At this, Catherine’s eyes sparkled again as she said, “It could be the ‘Heritage God Void.’


    She hadn’t told anyone, but she didn’t hide it from Leonard either.


    She continued, “I’ve read in ancient texts that the Taron Dynasty had an inherited Divine Artifact called ‘Knowledge Repository Divine Ruin.’ It’s said to be a Mysterious Realm similar to an Alternate Dimension that contains all the transcendental inheritances of the Card Master Civilization collected by the Taron Dynasty...”


    Catherine’s horizon was far broader than that of ordinary people.


    She didn’t know before that this was the Pursuer of Light’s plan.


    But actually, when she heard that the Old Ancestor of the Song Family had passed away, attracting many great figures to gather in Sinless City, she had already sensed the whiff of a conspiracy.


    Which is why she came here in place of her grandfather.


    When she saw the death of the Pursuer of Light at Flood Gang, she had guessed most of the plan.


    The Pursuer of Light had set this stage for the purpose of exterminating those...


    Even though this landed her in a dire situation, Catherine harbored no complaint.


    Because.


    If it were her in that situation, she would also make the same choice without hesitation!


    If the hidden threat of the Ancient God Sect could be removed, the sacrifice was absolutely worth it!


    “...”


    Upon hearing this, Leonard mused that it made sense.


    He had already felt there was something off with the Classic Books that the monsters dropped.


    Now, hearing this, he was almost certain that this Mysterious Realm was not a Death Place, but rather a Big Chance.


    Moreover, his intuition told him that to possibly get out, there could be some connection with the “shadow trial.”
