Chapter 1530: Chapter 1054: The Holy Court’s Special Item

Lilith’s Mansion.

After bathing, Lilith leaned lazily in front of the radio, droplets of water clinging to her hair tips, holding a glass filled with red wine in her hand.

In the radio, the Secret Speaker deliberately lowered his voice, reporting, “The Holy Hall is in complete chaos.”

“At that ti! The entire Inner City District…everyone, whether civilians or the Guard Team, all fell into a coma, as if so force had instantly drained away their consciousness,” the Secret Speaker’s voice was trembling, “Afterward, the temple imdiately sealed the news, but so information still leaked out, including that the Holy Seat’s promotion ritual failed, and everyone in the temple, including the Pope, was affected.”

Lilith’s pupils suddenly contracted.

A few days ago, the Association was inquiring about Wu Heng’s movents, and audaciously attacking the Holy Hall, it was obvious that it was Wu Heng.

And during his disappearance these past few days, everything was normal at the Island Lord’s Mansion, which also ant Wu Heng was not in danger.

But who would’ve thought he would pull off sothing so terrifying.

The Holy Hall was attacked.

Everyone in the Inner City District fell into a coma, the Holy Seat’s ceremony was disrupted, and the Pope was also impacted.

To use the typical wording of the Holy Court, this is divine punishnt.

“Leader?” A cautious call ca from the other end of the radio, pulling her back from her thoughts.

Lilith took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, “Can the exact losses at the temple be determined?”

“There is no confird news yet.” The Secret Speaker hesitated before saying, “But oddly, this ti the reaction from the temple isn’t as extre as before, there’s even a sense of trying to suppress and downplay it.”

Suppress this matter?

Downplay it?

Lilith’s brows furrowed but she imdiately understood.

They fear Wu Heng going over there again.

“Continue to monitor them,” Lilith’s voice was gentle, “There’s no need to investigate the losses or what happened, just keep an eye on their subsequent actions. Notify imdiately if there are any movents.”

“Yes! I’ll head back now.” The Secret Speaker said.

“Be careful.”

The buzzing of the radio abruptly stopped, leaving the room in silence once again.

Lilith reclined against the back of the chair, tapping her fingertips lightly on the armrest, her eyes narrowed in contemplation.

Wu Heng’s motives were not hard to guess.

The main reason was surely the ‘blaspher’ list from the Holy Court.

Lilith had considered that he might secretly maneuver, or possibly negotiate to exert pressure, even considered that he would plan a local counterattack…

But never expected he would directly storm the Holy Hall!

Not only destroying the Hero’s promotion ritual, but also crushing the Holy Court’s threats in an overwhelming manner.

But what was even more startling was the power Wu Heng displayed.

Causing the entire city to fall into unconsciousness in an instant…

This was beyond the scope of a Hero.

No matter how powerful a Hero, it only ant a significant amplification of abilities, not to the extent of affecting an entire city so dramatically.

If he could easily breach the defenses of the Holy Hall, is there any place in the world he couldn’t go to?

The Association’s headquarters? The Elf King’s Court?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt a chill down her spine, unable to help but mutter under her breath, “This guy…just how many cards is he hiding?”

But after a pause, she felt a bit relieved.

Her judgnt was indeed not wrong.

…

[Faith Breaking Realm]: Consus Power of Faith to forcibly let a qualified professional break through their limits and enter a higher rank.

[Human Form Wear]: When the user forcibly breaks through a realm, their soul and body gradually strip away human characteristics, resulting in loss of emotion, physical mutation, or cognitive distortion.

Wu Heng looked at the detailed descriptions of the Special Item’s effects and side-effects, raising an eyebrow.

[Faith Breaking Realm]is undoubtedly the Holy Court’s key to continuously creating Heroes.

Although the breaker needs to et specific conditions, for the Holy Court that has accumulated thousands of years of faith, the Power of Faith is not an issue.

If he didn’t take this Special Item away, the Holy Court could still continuously produce Heroes.

The side effect is called [Human Form Wear], the soul and body gradually losing human traits.

It can be understood that Heroes who use faith to break through will be affected by the Special Item, possibly in their emotions, cognition, or bodily changes.

But compared to the power gained, what does this cost an?

Think of the Immortal Emperor of the Endless Desert.

To remain a Hero and live on, he turned himself into a Corpse Ghost.

Moreover, those Holy Seats the Holy Court produced didn’t show much change externally.

Not to ntion them.

Wu Heng’s original plan, if life had reached its end and he hadn’t beco a Hero, he too would likely have beco a Corpse Ghost.

“Uncle, is that the thing we’re looking for?” Xiao Xiao flew around it twice but couldn’t see anything special about it.

The other three Ghosts also directed their gaze towards him.

Wu Heng said, “Yes, this is the Special Item. It can allow clergy to break through into a Hero, but of course, it requires the Holy Court’s Power of Faith.”

He paused for a mont, then added, “The side effect is…the target breaking through will gradually lose their humanity.”

“What is humanity?” Xiao Xiao asked.

Wu Heng thought about the wording, then explained, “For example, having no human emotions anymore, or the body starting to change into sothing non-human, or having a different understanding compared to humans.”

“Oh!” Xiao Xiao seed to understand, then said, “Turning into zombies.”

“You can’t quite describe it that way, the heroes we’ve defeated, from the appearance, didn’t really change much. This ‘loss of humanity’ shouldn’t be too severe.” Wu Heng said.

Xiao Xiao nodded, “Indeed, there seems to be no significant change.”
