Chapter 1153: Eternal Flame Battle Dress

Rosalie stood in the middle of a sea of fire. The whole area was covered in fire as the corpses of monsters burned to a crisp, leaving an unpleasant smell in the air.

[You have cleared all the waves!]

[You have finished the trial of Epic!]

[Do you want to take the Bonus Wave for the higher rank reward? Yes/No?]

Rosalie finished all the waves much faster, even faster than Tang Shaoyang with her unlimited mana. The fire burned the ground, creating molten lava. The monsters would be burned automatically since they rushed toward her, not caring that the fire would kill them. It was as if the monsters were designed with a single purpose, killing her regardless of the price. That ended well for her as the monsters came to the fire by themselves.

She watched the screen, hesitating to decide whether to take the last bonus wave. She recalled Tang Shaoyangʼs bonus wave in the trial of the Epic. It was Wrath, the Golden Dragon. She questioned herself if she could defeat something like the Golden Dragon herself. At that time, Tang Shaoyang almost lost until he used True Dragon.

Rosalie had a bloodline, two classes, and the same rank of talent or even higher. However, her bloodline and two classes were inferior to Tang Shaoyangʼs. In overall strength, she was still weaker even though her level was higher than his when he took the Trial of Epic.

”My unlimited mana is not going to help me with my lack of offensive power,” Rosalie muttered, realizing her limitation despite her unlimited mana. If the last bonus wave opponent was something with high fire resistance. She was doomed if that was the case, and she might die there. It did not take her long to come up with a decision after realizing her limitation, and she chose no.

[Congratulations! You have finished the Trial of Epic!]

[You have advanced to Epic Rank!]

[Please choose the following rewards!]

[(Bloodline) (Class) (Talent) (Artifact)]

It took her less than five seconds to decide, choosing Artifact for her reward. Of course, there was a reason behind her decision, a strategic reason behind choosing Artifact even though the dwarf could make her the same rank Artifact or even better. The reason was that she wanted a better class, a better talent, and a better bloodline to upgrade her current bloodline.

[(Cloak of Flame) (Eternal Flame Staff) (Eternal Flame Battle Dress) (Eternal Scythe)]

The System presented the Eternal series of Artifacts with an additional Cloak of Flame. She skipped the cloak since she had the Cloak of Shadow. That was one of her most precious items, giving her an escape skill. She was not going to change her cloak anytime soon. Weapon, staff, and scythe. She did not really like to bring a weapon with her even though she knew that the staff might increase her fire magic damage. Her choice was obvious, Eternal Flame Battle Dress.

The space cracked and the artifact came out of the cracked space. A red dress with a built-in shawl made of fire. The dress was also lit on fire, and it was gorgeous for a battle dress. It looked inconvenient in the battle with the long lower part, but she really liked the battle dress.

[Eternal Flame Battle Dress]

Rank: Ancient

Bonus Attribute: + 3-Star Magic Power

Ability:

- Flame Shield

- Increase Fire Damage by 10%

Rosalie was more than satisfied with her first reward and immediately equipped the dress. There was another interesting part in the battle dress she just found out upon equipping. The built-in shawl that was made of fire was the interesting part. She could control the fire shawl with just her thoughts. Not just that, she could prolong the shawl, and it might provide a surprise catch in the battle.

After doing a little bit of testing, Rosalie was satisfied with her battle dress overall performance. She then took the portal, leaving the trial space, returning to the room when she left. She was about to proceed with the next trial, but then she remembered the research data.

Rosalie reluctantly came out of the room, and the timing was impeccable as the female attendant assigned to her was right in front of the door, with the paper in her hand, taking a note. The female attendant let out a gasp of surprise, then a shadow of doubt could be seen on her face.

”Did you clear the trial?” That was the first thing that came out of the female attendantʼs mouth. Her doubt was reasonable as it was too fast for Rosalie to finish the trial. It was three days, entering the fourth day. This was the fastest if she cleared the trial, but there were many that failed to clear the thirty wave and came out early too. That was why her first question was to ask whether Rosalie finished the trial or not.

”Of course, I cleared the trial, but I didnʼt take the Bonus Wave. I just cleared the thirty waves,” Rosalie replied with an antagonistic tone. She was offended that the female attendant doubted her.

”Ah, I apologize. I donʼt mean to doubt you, but you are too fast. You might create a record to finish the trial in the shortest time.” The female attendant bowed her head, apologizing for her earlier doubt.

”Please follow me. I need more details to collect the data,”

Rosalie followed the female attendant.

”You donʼt need to worry about the bonus wave. I think no one has tried to take the bonus wave, even Sir Instructor Zaneos did not try to take the bonus wave. The only person who cleared the bonus wave is His Majesty. Thatʼs why we strongly oppose anyone taking the bonus wave. It was too dangerous,” The female attendant explained as they went to her workroom.

Rosalie frowned, ”You did not tell me not to take the bonus wave.” She recalled the female attendant did not tell her anything like that, at all.

”Sir Instructor Zaneos told me not to tell you about it. He said you can make your own decision whether you are capable of taking the bonus wave or not,”

Rosalie answered all the questions. Such as the type of monsters and waves, and how long for her to clear each wave. How she defeated the wave and the waveʼs average levels.

The female attendant was surprised to hear the answer of how Rosalie cleared the trial. Fire, the answer was the same. Rosalie set the wave with fire, and it was logical with her SSS-Rank talent.

”I have done with the questions. Do you want to take the next trial right now, or do you want a break or maybe some food? You have been staying inside for three days, and you havenʼt slept during the duration of the trial. I recommend you take a nap and food before you try for the next trial. We donʼt have any similar cases like yours, like taking several trials consecutively. I advise you to take a break before the next trial for your well-being,” The female attendant gave the Flame Empress professional advice as an experienced Advisor.

Now the female attendant reminded her. She indeed had not slept for the trial duration which was three days and did not eat anything.

”We have room for you to rest, and I will prepare the food as well if you want,” The female attendant offered.

Rosalie massaged the space between her eyes. The lack of rest and food got into her a little bit after being reminded. However, she wanted to clear all the trials as fast as she could in order to catch up with Tang Shaoyang. She really could not come up with a decision.

”Has my friend finished her trial?” She asked about Zowen.

The female paused for a moment, ”Please wait. I will ask my colleague,” She then left the room and returned a minute later with a smile on her face, ”Your friend has not returned from the trial. The average clear time for the Trial of Epic is twenty-five days.”

The female attendant returned to the table, opening another file. She checked Zowenʼs profile, ”With your friendʼs specs, she should be able to clear in two weeks at the latest, and a week at the fastest. This is just my rough estimation based on my experience.”

”It will be late….” Rosalie muttered by herself, but she decided to get a rest, ”I will take a rest, and also please prepare the food for me.”

”Do you have….” Before the female attendant finished her words, Origin interrupted her.

[Thereʼs no need to worry about her accommodation. Lady Elinova will come to pick up Lady Rosalie.]

The female attendant was shocked to hear the robotic voice. What shocked her, even more, was the fact that Lady Elinova would meet with the red-haired woman in front of her. Even though she knew she was a VIP, she did not expect the red-haired womanʼs status would be this high for Lady Elinova to prepare the accommodation by herself.

Not long after the interruption, someone knocked on the door three times and Lady Elinova entered the room. The purple-haired mature woman had a smile and her eyes locked on the red-haired woman. She rushed over and hugged Rosalie, catching The Flame Empress off guard.

This put Rosalie in an awkward situation. She could not say that she did not know the lady in front of her. Rosalie watched a lot of Tang Shaoyangʼs action in bed with Elinova. Elinova hooked her hand and dragged her out of the room.

”Zhang Mengyao already told me about you, and I want to meet you soon. But I heard you are very busy with your advancement, so I donʼt want to bother you. My name is Elinova, and you can call me Elin.”
