Treasure Hunting System： The Ocean Conquerer

Chapter 597: Chapter 282: Trial

”Of course. As long as you can obtain the formal qualifications you’re meant to have, you can certainly receive rewards.”

As it spoke, the triangular entity swayed slightly, its voice tinged with apology. ”Sorry, I’m just a guide. I’m unable to be of much help.”

Alka nodded.

He took out the map and blinked.

Casually, he touched the golden light.

As expected, the Treasure Information within the golden light expanded.

[Treasure Information: A Divine Trial constructed by pioneers from ten thousand years ago. After the Divine War, only this single Tower of Trial remained.

The trial is for intelligent life from the Second to Fourth Stages. By climbing upwards and surpassing your limits, you can obtain these hard-earned rewards.

To obtain rewards, you must go through formal channels; otherwise, even if you pass, you will not receive them.

The formal channel requires the Seal of the Trial Taker. However, the following are exempt from needing the Seal of the Trial Taker: those bearing the mark of major factions, Divine Descendants, Divine Apostles, Saints, the Dream Realm King, and holders of the Dream Realm King’s Seal.]

Looking at the long list beneath the Treasure Information, various entities could be exempt from the trial seal.

These individuals could all be broadly categorized as ’people with backing.’

He should be able to recognize these identities.

Among them, Alka himself possessed three: Divine Descendant, Divine Apostle, and Dream Realm King.

Among the Divine Apostles, Julia and Pororo should also belong to this category of entity.

This knowledge all came from Mirmi’s fragmented memories.

In those memories, the category of Divine Apostle could generally be understood as those favored by the Divine.

Not many people are favored by the Divine, but it’s not an exaggeration; it’s simply equivalent to being personally remembered by the Divine.

Being remembered like that is, in itself, a kind of blessing.

This Tower of Trial should be able to scan for such a state.

And his own most important identity is the Dream Realm King, roughly equivalent to the leader of a faction.

He should be able to craft the Dream Realm King’s Seal and then give it to Chadite and the others, allowing them to also meet the requirements for exemption.

So, the question is, what exactly is this Dream Realm King’s Seal?

Although he is the Dream Realm King, he has no idea what this thing is.

Putting away the map, he pondered in front of everyone, beginning to search through the memories in his mind.

Soon, from Mirmi’s fragmented memories, he found the crafting process for it.

It was very simple.

Coming back to his senses, he looked at the triangular entity and nodded.

”Understood. If you don’t mind, could you let us attempt the trial?”

”Of course, of course!” The triangular entity’s voice held a hint of excitement.

Eagerly, it floated to the base of the stone tower.

There was a conspicuous Teleportation Array there, flanked by two stone plinths, each about a meter high.

”This Tower of Trial has a total of 9 levels. The minimum entry standard is Second Stage, and the top level requires Fourth Stage strength.”

”The trial is for a single person and is not life-threatening. If you sustain fatal damage, you will be teleported out. Alternatively, if you shout ’I surrender!’ when facing an unbeatable opponent, you will also be automatically teleported out.”

”I suggest you try to avoid being teleported out due to fatal injuries, as this place has long been derelict and lacks the healing teams it once had.”

”While fatal injuries are nullified, any wounds sustained prior will remain. If your team lacks healing capabilities, it’s best to concede decisively when facing an insurmountable opponent.”

The triangular entity elaborated endlessly, using concise language to explain the precautions for the Tower of Trial.

”Only one person can enter at a time. Each entry is divided into a challenge and a trial. A trial can be attempted once every 30 days, while a challenge can only be attempted once in a lifetime.”

”Challenges once offered rewards, but now... well, it no longer matters.”

After its explanation, everyone nodded.

”We need to discuss this,” Alka said.

”Certainly, go ahead,” the entity replied.

Alka turned to face the others.

”I can provide you with formal qualifications, which will allow you to initiate challenges and gain rewards.”

Just as they’d thought, Alka approached; he undoubtedly already knew how to obtain formal qualifications.

They weren’t surprised at all by this.

”So, to be on the safe side, we should attempt the trial first to scout it out?” Jason suggested.

Alka nodded; that was exactly what he meant.

”So who goes first?”

”I’ll go first,” Alka stated.

Among them all, his survival ability is the strongest, especially after becoming a Divine Descendant.

Regardless of whether there’s an issue with the trial or not, he could figure it out.

Moreover, judging from the Treasure Information, this is indeed a place for trials, and there are traces of many people having been here before.

Its fame also suggests that many who attempted the trial here survived.

With that said, he turned and stood beside the triangular entity.

”I’ll go first,” Alka said. ”How do I begin?”

The triangular entity immediately swayed and floated to the central Rune Array Platform.

”You just need to stand on it.”

Under everyone’s gaze, Alka stepped onto the Teleportation Platform.

As he did, the entire platform rotated slightly, emitting a blue glow, and the two stone plinths beside it flickered faintly.

The left plinth lit up with a yellow light, the right one with a red light, and a groove appeared on the surface of each.

”To begin the trial, place your left hand on the yellow plinth to your left. To begin the challenge, place your right hand on the red plinth to your right.”
