Capítulo 1155: D474. Heroes.rpgsave_2
“So, the enormous magic power she released, along with the residual magic from the purification process, would seep into the sewers, wouldn’t it? Could it be absorbed by other creatures? Like Slis, crocodiles, snakes, rats, and cockroaches…”
“Hold on a second.” The Bishop’s face turned ashen as he interrupted him.
“Could it be that today’s buffet the is…”
“That’s right, it’s the Saintess-purified sewer the!”
The Magician’s eyes sparkled, and his face bead with excitent.
“Not to ntion the ingredients, even the drinks are from the lake in the center of that battle! It’s said that even the plates were specially chosen from the stone bricks the Saintess walked on!”
“Watch and see, after eating today’s al, I’m sure I’ll succeed in the Third Ascension and embark on a new stage in my life—”
“…”
The Bishop was finally at a loss for words, holding back the urge to let out a long sigh, slowly turned his stiff neck, and discreetly glanced to his side.
The Saintess, who had just been smiling, now wore an expressionless face, her gaze subtly eyeing the still-enthusiastic Magician.
Though standing on the bustling street, the priests seed unable to hear any surrounding sounds, only the increasingly loud beating of their own hearts echoed in their ears.
Until the queue moved forward, the Magician waved goodbye and eagerly continued to stand in line, the nearly breathless Bishop finally let out a sigh of relief like a newborn, whispered cautiously:
“Your Highness, may I go and stop today’s service?”
Although this restaurant was managed by the Warlock Association, if the Church formally intervened, it wouldn’t be too difficult to achieve.
After all, the whole city knew that the genuine Lady Saintess was staying at the Ancient Capital Church right now.
The Hero remained silent for a mont, then gently sighed and shook his head helplessly.
“…Just let it be, as long as everyone is happy.”
However, after passing by this top-ranking buffet restaurant in the entire Ancient Capital, the Hero no longer had the appetite to sample snacks.
Thus, the tour’s pace quietly quickened, eventually arriving at the landmark, core, and origin of the city before.
The zero level of the Starless Dungeon—Star Knowledge Tower.
It stood in the center of the Ancient Capital, built of gray-white stone, its surface adorned with intricate magic patterns. The shadow it cast seed to stretch endlessly to the horizon.
“Lady Saintess, are you going inside?” The Bishop swallowed nervously, his voice even more tense than before.
Evidently, he had heard quite a lot from the Ancient Capital Bishop, and his entire body was tense.

“No need to be so nervous, just having a look.” The Hero smiled.
She gazed at the Star Knowledge Tower before her.
Although within the Inner City of the Ancient Capital, you could see the towering giant no matter where you looked.
But standing right in front of the tower like this, the awe-inspiring feeling brought by the enormous structure was entirely different.
The Hero was well-traveled and had seen many magnificent sights. But it had to be said, the tower before her was the most grand man-made structure she had ever seen. Even the decaying Angel Royal City couldn’t compare.
Setting aside its height comparable to the Holy Mother Peak, the sheer size of the entrance plaza located under the tower alone was on par with the Pure White Square of the Holy City.
Although this plaza was simply expansive to accommodate many Adventurers, lacking the intricate magic patterns that covered the entire ground of the Pure White Square.
But the tower’s massive base, stretching like a wall across the horizon, proved that this expansive plaza was barely the foyer of the Dungeon.
The sounds of discussion, bargaining, footsteps, and tal clashes intertwined. So were organizing equipnt, so recruiting temporary teammates, while others were selling various adventure tools and intelligence.
The Adventurers on the plaza were busy with their own affairs, coming and going endlessly.
Occasionally, soone would recognize the group led by the Bishop, casting slightly puzzled glances, but no excessive attention was drawn.
Although the news of the Saintess’s arrival had spread across the Ancient Capital, for the vast majority of Adventurers, soone like the Saintess was beyond their grasp, unrelated to their prospects.
Naturally, they had no interest in organizing celebrations and festivities like the residents of the Holy City do to welco her.
Instead of the Saintess whom they might never converse with in their lifeti, of course, the task lists and reward amounts before them were more important.
The crowd on the plaza flowed like a loom, with people entering the tower through various doors, so confident, so solemn; and others exiting from inside, so battered, so grinning…
Life and death, sorrow and joy, loss and gain, these were the main thes of this city.
Most people had long grown accustod to such sights, though there were still so children standing on the fringes of the plaza, watching the coming and going Adventurers with eyes full of admiration.
It couldn’t be called elegant or composed, but a certain free-spirited life force indeed took root here, remaining vibrant despite centuries of wind and frost, stirring the primal instinct of yearning for adventure and the unknown in people’s hearts.
A girl stood still at the corner of the plaza, quietly gazing at it all.
Finally, under the anxious gaze of others, the Saintess leisurely turned away from Stars Plaza.
She had promised the Ancient Capital Bishop not to rashly enter the Dungeon.
And although the Ancient Capital Bishop’s previous guesses were sowhat off, he was indeed correct about one thing.
The current Hero, if she were to directly barge into another Otherworld, she would most likely face rejection.
