The Totems watched in silence as Karl finished the trial tower. Or perhaps this one should be called a trial cathedral, given the shape. Either way, it was definitely shaping up to be a proper trial, and when Karl began to finalize the spells, he found that he was missing a vital aspect for the effect.
"Mom, I’ll need to step away for just one moment. I need to use a transformation skill to finish the work." He explained.
While she didn’t understand what he meant, she still let Karl leave her with Dana as he moved to a large open area.
Then, the shocking part began.
The son that she had raised since childhood vanished, replaced by a gigantic golden dragon.
The power around him surged, and Karl finalized the spells over the building using the additional blessings granted by the [Avatar] form, then transformed back and nodded in satisfaction.
The combination of spells had worked perfectly, and there was a proper trial ground here.
Not a dungeon, but a trial. Anyone who entered had eight hours to complete as much of the trial as they could, and if they were severely injured, they would be ejected.
If they were starting out at Overlord Rank or lower, that should be more than enough because the top power setting was in the higher end of the Totem Rank. For those stronger, it would be more of a prolonged sparring session after they reached the power cap.
But that was a good trial as well, because it would still help them gain Skill Points and master their abilities, both mental and physical.
"Wonderful. That is one trial ground completed. If you would like to send someone in, you can make sure that it is working properly. Maybe not one of the people who are coming to the wedding, though.
The trial can last up to eight hours, and that sort of delay would be a bit inconvenient today." Karl explained.
That made the others laugh. Yes, it would be inconvenient for them all to wait for someone who was inside a trial for eight hours.
"We have plenty of options. Is it an individual or group trial?" The Vice Principal asked.
"Individual. Though, if you’re in a Group using the system function, it should let you all enter at once."
The Vice Principal nodded, then motioned for one of the teachers watching in the background to come forward.
"Overlord Joram, please give the new trial a test. Keep us updated as much as possible while you’re inside, so we know what to expect." He instructed.
The Ranger Class teacher came forward, but Karl halted him for a second.
"The trial will not be identical for everyone. I set it to randomize the trials, but they’re set by difficulty. At first, they will be fairly easy. But with every victory, you will receive more difficult opponents.
There are two entrances to the trial ground, but they both lead to the same trial.
Once you’re inside, you will understand." Karl explained.
