Chapter 43 | Reborn as a Saint in a Rotten World, I Refuse to Submit

"This... Your Highness, I do not know."

"...Fine, you may leave."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The little nun quickly retreated from the Temple, leaving Luo Li alone in the vast hall.

Looking at the magic lamps hanging on the surrounding walls, Luo Li let out a long sigh.

"Fulong Cavendish... it seems this man's infamy precedes him. Even the nuns in my Temple show fear at his name. I wonder if this Fulong will fear me, the Saintess?"

It seemed necessary to meet with this person.

"Someone, come here."

"Your Highness."

It was the same little nun from before; hearing the call, she hurriedly walked in from outside the hall.

"Have someone invite Lord Fulong Cavendish to come here. Say... I wish to speak with him regarding Cyrus."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Putting down the notebook, Luo Li looked up at the statue behind her.

"Archangel Sariel... if you truly exist, can you tell me what I should do now?"

She had suddenly been put in control of the entire Kingdom of the Moon and had to handle so many troublesome matters.

It really was not a job for an ordinary person!

However, there was no voice in the Temple to respond to her.

Whether angels existed or not, she did not know, but it seemed they were unlikely to help her.

"Some angel you are, can't even help with this little bit. What use is there in believing in you! Hmph!"

She cast a disdainful glance at the statue, then turned back to pick up the Biographies of the Saintesses of the Moon and began to study it carefully.

Some of the details regarding the Saintess were quite beneficial.

Time passed slowly in the quiet atmosphere.

Feeling a bit exhausted and her eyes growing sore, she looked up to find that the sun was already high in the sky.

She put down the biography, took a deep breath, and stood up to walk a few steps, easing the stiffness in her body.

To summarize, there were several key points in the biographies.

First, she might need to reach level ten to learn floating skills, which had an auxiliary cultivation effect for the Saintess.

Second, at levels thirty and sixty, the Saintess could comprehend two new special class skills and two new special class privileges.

Third, if the Saintess wanted to learn skills, she only needed to pray beneath the statue.

Fourth, the strength of the knights was engraved within the statue, and the Saintess could check them through prayer.

Fifth, it seemed no other Saintess had a status panel, only she did.

With this information, she could at least better understand her current situation.

Luo Li hesitated for a moment before stepping onto the dais and kneeling before the statue.

Since the bed was placed directly in front of the statue, she only needed to kneel on the bedding.

Unlike others, who would have to kneel on the cold tiled floor.

"I pray... O God... please reveal your miracle..."

With her fingers interlaced at her chest and her eyes closed, she recited the prayer.

In the next second... a point of light suddenly erupted before her closed eyes.

As the light expanded, a massive game interface appeared before her.

And in the background image of the game interface, it actually... revealed her own likeness!

It was the kind of image that would make one's heart race and face flush!

At the top of this interface, several large words were written.

【The Holy Maiden’s Tragic Ruin — Desperate Counterattack】

What was this supposed to be?

God! Are you playing with me?

The interface on the left was a search screen that included her teammates, including the Guardian Knights like Hilda.

However, aside from the four Guardian Knights, the portraits of the other four were blacked out.

Even the Heavenly Punishment Knight only had a name without a portrait.

The interface on the right was a massive skill tree.

The skill tree grew from its roots to the very top, with a dazzling array of skill names on its lush branches.

She scanned the skills.

These skills were categorized into: General Skills, Special Class Skills, Special Holy Crest Skills, and Special Demon Crest Skills.

Some skills even intersected with one another.

For instance, there was an intersection point at level forty between the special class skills and the development of healing arts.

【Special Class Skill Advancement: Protect the Brilliant Night with My Moon Banner (Centered on the Moon Banner, significantly increases allies' defense, recovery, speed, attack, endurance, and stamina. Grants one-time fatal damage recovery and one-time unconditional damage negation. Grants the skill 'Brave'. Increases each attribute by 100%.) (Prerequisites: Greater Healing Art, Protect the Brilliant Night with My Moon Banner) (Required Level: 40) (Required Skill Points: 10)】

【Special Class Authority: Angel Descent (Using the user as a vessel, summons an angel to descend, briefly allowing the user's strength to break through the level 75 barrier and reach Godhood for ten minutes.) (Prerequisites: Holy Summoning Art) (Required Level: 75) (Required Skill Points: 30)】

Seeing these dazzling skills, her heart could not help but throb with excitement!!

As expected, she was not just eye candy!

This skill was simply invincible; the normal limit for the human race was level seventy-five, yet this skill could break that barrier to reach Godhood!

"But the requirements for these skills are too high, aren't they!?"

She checked her skill points; she received five points for every level she gained. Right now she only had thirty points, which was just enough to unlock Angel Descent, but not even enough for its prerequisites.
