《Armipotent 》Chapter 233: Let's Have a Chat
Advertisement
The Radiant Temple was built similar to a pagoda, but this one was much bigger than the pagoda on Earth. Ten-floors pagoda made of black stone with the unique carving that was glowing in gold.
Two people were guarding the entrance, wearing the golden robe that covered their whole body. Their hands were hiding behind the loose and long sleeves, and their face was covered in a white hood.
Arina led the group to the entrance and the two people immediately blocked them at the double-door. The door was made of gold with intricate carving on it, "Please state your business," it was unknown who spoke between the two, but the voice was toneless, and it was the male's voice.
"We are here to receive blessings from the Radiant Gods," Arina replied respectfully.
Without further conversation, the double-door opened without the two people opened it. As the door opened, the two people who guarded the door returned to their original position.
Arina motioned Tang and the others to follow her. Such a scene was unexpected to Tang Shaoyang. The temple was asking for money in exchange for the blessing, he thought the temple would be a crowded place like the Adventurer Guild, but the place seemed to be enclosed from outside influence.
When they entered the temple, the double door closed, and a brilliant light greeted them. From the entrance to the end of the hall, the red carpet stretched out, and they were a step away from the red carpet.
The brilliant light immediately showed them they were in a very big hall with pillars made of crystals on both sides. Behind the pillars, a giant statue was standing, many of them until the end of the hall.
Delia's jaw dropped at the brilliance sight of the temple's interior. The marbled floor, the brilliant light, and the statues were enough to amaze the girl. Elin did not show it up, but the fact that she kept glancing here and there was proof she lost her composure.

"Welcome to the Radiant Temple, how may I help you?" A soothing voice echoed through the big hall, and a figure suddenly appeared right in front of them.
The figure was wearing a pure white robe with intricate symbols in it. The figure was standing three meters away from them. It was either they did not notice her because of the amazing sight of the hall or the figure just appeared with some sort of skill.
"We are here to receive the blessing of the Radiant Gods," Arina had her palms touched each other at her chest high and bowed her head to the figure that just appeared. Delia and Elin also followed to greet the figure, Tang Shaoyang then followed as well before the others also followed in tow.
"Follow me," the soothing echoed again as the figure turned around, walking through the red carpet. The group followed while looking at the statues made of silver stone. The statues apparently were the Gods, there was a name and a little bit of scribble below the statue.
Tang Shaoyang was hardly bothered with it, he was someone who did not believe in God's beings. They walked until the end of the hall. Instead of statues, they found five doors made of gold with an engraving of a beast.
From the leftmost door, it was a snake, the second one was a wolf, the third one was a lion, the fourth one was a giant bird, and the last one was a dragon.
"Who's going first?" The figure did not bother to explain anything, thinking the group already knew what would happen later. The group was looking at Tang Shaoyang, they were waiting for his order who was going first.
Arina had explained to them about the process of the blessing. The process of the blessing was quite simple but only one person could receive the blessing at one time.

"I will be the first," Tang Shaoyang stepped forward. The figure in the white robe extended her arm toward, asking for the offering. The figure did not ask him what kind of blessing he wanted, at all.
'The service is not satisfying, 4/10,' thought Tang Shaoyang to himself as he forked out 10 gold from his pouch. He dropped 10 gold on her palm, and the gold disappeared before it could touch the palm-covered sleeve.
After 10 gold disappeared, the golden door with a snake engraved on it opened on its own. It was as if the door was inviting Tang Shaoyang to enter.
—Why Minor Blessing? Why not Normal Blessing, you have the money
Zowen questioned as he was about to miss to get the better second class. The Lightning Magus was eighty percent sure that he would get the second class.
'That's careless of you, Ms. Magus. What if the blessing is overruling my current class instead of getting the second class? It will be a waste of my money,' Tang Shaoyang reminded the magus of the second possibility, 'It's not like I can't get the second blessing.'
He then strode to the opened door. His vision failed to see the thing behind the door, it was pure darkness. Tang Shaoyang entered the door without hesitation.
Even though he had prepared what would happen the moment he entered the door, it was completely different when he experienced it directly. The light was too bright for him, he immediately activated [Spirit Eyes].
Just like what Arina described to him, he was now in a white room. The wall and the floor were discharging a pure light that would blind his eyes for some time until his eyes could adjust to the new environment. However, [Spirit Eyes] were not affected by the light.
It was not a room with glowing walls and floors but it was a vast place made of light. His [Spirit Eyes] then noticed that seven meters ahead of him, the light materialized into a figure.
At this time, Tang Shaoyang forcefully opened his eyes, trying to adjust to the surroundings. It took him a while before he could adjust his vision. He deactivated [Spirit Eyes], the figure was standing seven meters ahead of him.
"Welcome to our world, child," a gentle voice echoed in the vast room. Tang Shaoyang looked around, trying to identify the voice. He was sure the voice did not come from the figure made of the light.
"Do you mind having a chat with us?" The same voice echoed again, but this time he could trace the voice. This time he was sure the voice came from the figure made of light.
Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brows. This was completely different from what Arina told him. He was not supposed to chat with the thing called Gods. Arina told him that he would be given a few choices of classes instead.
"We can easily discover you are not the person from this world, so would you like to have a chat with us? We have prepared the table with a quite tasty snack," the voice resounded again as Tang Shaoyang did not respond to the voice.
Right in front of the figure made of light, a table made of wooden and a chair materialized. The figure made of light sat on the chair, beckoning the supposed to be arm at him.
