Chapter 246 The Judges Are All My People, What Will You Fight Me With?

April 2nd.

After twenty days of preparation, the second round of the Holy Maiden Candidate Examination began.

The Sorcerer Engineering Team at headquarters clanged and banged away for half a day, constructing a teleportation array around the villa. After several tests, they teleported away along with the villa and the candidates.

Fog.

The forest, shrouded in layers of mist, seemed to be at the edge of the world, with a sinister atmosphere permeating the area. Because it lay far from the center of the world, the sun's grey, weak light could not dispel the chill in the air.

A biting cold wind blew through, rustling the leaves, while unknown beasts let out shrill cries, as if dead souls had come back to life, reenacting their final, desolate moments over and over.

Wayne circled the villa, the towering trees only half-visible in the thick fog, branches stretching out ghoulishly like twisted hands summoning the living.
