Different World: The Devil's Coming

Chapter 277 Dawn Breaks Through the Illusion

"By the way, Chenxi. What did you mean when you asked Mo Fan to save you?"

Lan Kexin and Ai Li asked while lying on Chenxi's bed.

Chenxi thought for a moment and said.

"Because I had a splitting headache at the time, and it felt like my entire soul was being sucked out. It was very uncomfortable, so I said that."

Lan Kexin and Ai Li nodded as if they understood what was going on. Indeed, if the pain was severe, they would indeed ask for help from people around them.

Chenxi was relieved when she saw that the two did not ask any further questions.

After all, she couldn't say that when she was on the verge of death, she thought about how she had experienced hundreds of illusions on the Road of Judgment but still couldn't find the future she wanted, so she asked Mo Fan for help.

The Mo Fan that Chenxi asked for help was not the Mo Fan here, but the Mo Fan outside.

She didn't want to believe that she and Mo Fan wouldn't have a good ending, so she persisted until now.

Chenxi, Lan Kexin and Ellie, the three of them relaxed in the church for a few days, then they received bad news from the Pope.

Mo Fan was trapped. Mo Fan's fear was much greater than they had imagined, so great that Mo Fan was now trapped in that room and unable to escape.

"Then teacher, you..."

"There's nothing I can do. I discovered it the day after he went in when I came to check. This room is out of control..."

The Pope looked at the room in front of him with a serious expression. Chenxi was about to say something when he found that something was wrong around him.

It seems like time has stopped?

"Huh? Isn't this kid afraid of ghosts?"

An ethereal voice sounded, it was not the Pope, nor Lan Kexin and Ellie, but more like... a goddess?

The space was broken, and Chenxi opened his eyes again, appearing on the platform of the Judgment Road. Seeing the steps in front of him disappear again, Chenxi sighed slightly, turned his head to look at the other steps, and continued to walk over.

If my future doesn't include him, then I would rather not have this future.

"Girl, you clearly know that being with him will bring you countless hardships, and you may even be affected by him and your life may be in danger. Why bother?"

The goddess' voice sounded again. This time Chenxi heard it clearly. It was the goddess' voice. So...

“My Lady Goddess, I want to ask, is there really no possibility between Mo Fan and me?”

Chenxi looked up and asked. The goddess sighed slightly, and then she spoke.

"Silly child, Mo Fan's original destiny was not here, not to mention his arrival with my help. The whole world, even I, cannot accurately predict his future.

The Mo Fan you saw in the illusion was deduced by me based on his current self. But no matter how I deduced, I couldn't deduce a future where Mo Fan could survive.

Do you understand what I mean?"

"So... everyone who is with Mo Fan will die with him?"

Chenxi lowered his head and said thoughtfully.

"According to the current information, this is the case. But Mo Fan's future is out of control. Perhaps he will find a chance to survive one day in the future?"

“Then why didn’t I see that future?”

Chenxi said to the goddess unwillingly. The goddess paused before speaking.

"Do you...really want to go through this pain with him?"

"Of course, that's why you sent me into the Path of Judgment, isn't it?"

"Well, I originally let you in here just to show you how brilliant your future would be without Mo Fan. I didn't expect that... In that case, then go ahead. I hope you can successfully reach your ideal destination."

As the goddess finished speaking, the steps around Chenxi burst into dazzling light. When Chenxi opened his eyes again, he found that there was a golden staircase in front of him.

Chenxi walked up, and this time, she did not feel dizzy, nor did she experience any new illusions. Just as Chenxi was confused, the goddess' voice cleared her up.

"Since I can't deduce the ending where Mo Fan survives, I can't deduce the perfect ending in your mind. So this trial is just to test your strength and abilities in all aspects. It won't help you move towards a better future."

"Thank you, Goddess. This is enough."

"In that case, let's move forward."

Chenxi nodded and walked to the top of the stairs.

When the morning light drowned the clouds above and reached the second level of the trial, the goddess' voice echoed in this first level.

"Why can't Mo Fan, that kid, hit the ghosts he's afraid of? The red-clothed female ghost, the zombies, and the phantoms that teleport to his face as soon as he sees them, what are they? Has the necromancer learned a new way to summon the undead?"

In the outside world, Qu Yaoqin came to the church again to pray for Chenxi. After she finished praying, she found that the statue of the goddess was shining brightly.

"Have you finally found the future you wanted? Or... have you given up already..."

After passing the first level of illusion, Chenxi did not encounter any great hardships in the subsequent levels. Even if there were new illusions to test her feelings for Mo Fan, it would be of no avail.

Compared to this, what is even more rare is perhaps Chenxi's hard power. When faced with some situations that require casting magic and test Chenxi's experience, Chenxi would be very reluctant. But fortunately, there was no danger.

For example, there is a level that tests Chenxi's ability as a priest.

The goddess virtualized a battle in front of Chenxi, and what Chenxi had to do was to help the weak teammates and defeat the powerful enemies.

In this battle, Chenxi's teammates were almost wiped out several times. The reason was that Chenxi was not focused enough and could not provide good support to his teammates.

In fact, when it comes to the various theories of the pastor, Chenxi understands them and is also the best one in the academy.

However, Mo Fan and his teammates who teamed up with Chenxi were all stronger than the other. Apart from using a few skills to assist, Chenxi would basically take action himself to interfere.

But! This is not what a normal pastor should do.

Ordinary priests don't have extra mana to use attack magic to disrupt the enemy. They save their mana to enhance or heal their teammates.

Only Chenxi's teammates basically don't need any amplification except for treatment when doing tasks.

In addition, Chenxi was very well protected by the Pope, who also taught Chenxi several forbidden techniques. During the period of forbidden techniques, Chenxi could even fight like a normal magician.

This made it even more difficult for Chenxi to understand the theoretical knowledge in the books.

Normally, the teachers’ answer to Chenxi’s questions is that the knowledge in books is suitable for most people, but not for some geniuses, so let Chenxi learn at his own pace.

But in the Road of Judgment, a priest is just a priest and he doesn’t have any means of attack. Even if he does, he won’t be able to send his opponent flying with one strike.
