The Wizard: From Zero-Ring Wizard to Almighty Lord.

Chapter 190 Divine Opportunity

Chapter 190
Contrary to Lynn's expectations, he was not immediately taken to see his current nominal teacher, Commander Cindy, as he had imagined.

Instead, after reaching the edge of the divine realm, the knight led him straight to a towering, sacred, and solemn divine tower.

This divine tower seemed to rise from the center of the divine kingdom, reaching straight into the void. Its body was engraved with an array of ever-flowing runes, and faint golden light cascaded down from its top, as if it were the gaze of a god looking down upon the mortal realm.

"Lady Cindy is currently assisting the Goddess in personally constructing the divine array and has no time to see you."

The knight spoke in a low voice, his expression solemn.

Upon hearing this, Lynn's heart stirred slightly.

Divine Array?

Standing atop the tower, he gazed into the distance and could vaguely see countless figures busily moving through a massive magic array deep within the divine realm.

Some of those figures manipulated divine power, some chanted divine incantations, and some directly condensed the energy of heaven and earth.

Like weaving a net, the massive lines of divine light outlined a colossal magic array, vast in scale and overflowing with divine power.

The so-called "divine array" is actually the key to assisting the Goddess of the Magic Network in opening up the territory of the divine kingdom.

It's important to understand that the thirteenth dimension is essentially just a small world that has been modified.

Even if the Goddess of the Magic Network reshaped its laws with supreme divine power, transforming it into an "outer plane" capable of containing a divine kingdom.

However, the original capacity is ultimately limited and cannot be compared with the core plane of the true divine civilization, the almost infinitely vast divine realm "Kingdom Heaven".

For this reason, the goddess's strategy was extremely radical.

Her goal is to expand her divine kingdom to every inch of the outer plane in the shortest possible time with overwhelming force.

If successful, everything in this plane of existence—whether wizards, knights, monsters, or even the laws themselves—will be completely encompassed and sealed within her divine kingdom system, becoming a part of her will.

At that time, all things in the universe will be within her control.

Lynn felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing the news.

By then, the tens of millions of wizards in the outer planes will probably be wiped out.

But Lynn was also well aware of this.

This is not something he can get involved in at his current level.

He could only hope that the wizarding army from the outside world would break in soon and stop the Goddess of the Magic Network's plan...

He himself could only plan quietly, observe the situation, and take things one step at a time.

At the top of the divine tower, there is a dazzling field of light.

It was a hall that resembled a gathering place for the chosen people of the gods, radiant with light and filled with divine power. One could even sense subtle "divine particles" floating in the air within the divine tower.

Lynn glanced around and found that there were many young people gathered here. Some were sitting, some were standing, some had arrogant expressions, and some had their eyes closed in meditation. They all exuded an extraordinary aura and were obviously all people of extraordinary background and exceptional talent.

The knight explained in a low voice:
"This is the place of opportunity that Lady Cindy has arranged for you."

It turns out that during the process of the Goddess of the Magic Network establishing her divine kingdom, the operation of the divine array and the reshaping of the laws will trigger countless mysterious reactions throughout the outer plane.

During this process, various divine substances and rare resources may very well emerge between heaven and earth.

These "reaction products" should have been collected by the gods themselves, just like the "Kingdom of Heaven." Even if believers participate, they rarely gain any substantial benefit.

But the Goddess of Magic is different.

She is high above, a true "goddess".

In her eyes, those resources that ordinary gods regarded as priceless treasures were nothing more than insignificant dust.

She didn't even bother to recycle it, nor did she care where it belonged.

Therefore, she generously bestowed these naturally occurring divine gifts as "gifts" upon believers who held special value to her or possessed certain potential.

This is what is called "opportunity".

Of course, those qualified to set foot in this place are by no means ordinary people.

They are all promising future talents who are receiving special attention within the goddess's camp.

The "Fao" that Lynn is currently possessing is a highly legendary figure.

He is not only the personal disciple of Cindy, the leader of the Mysterious Fire Knights, but also an extraordinary genius who has reached the seventh level at a young age.

Given his status, it was only natural for him to be included in this divine trial ground.

Lynn stood quietly in the hall filled with divine light, golden rays cascading down his shoulders. His gaze was deep, clearly deep in thought.

The knight who brought him there did not say anything more after fulfilling his mission.

He merely nodded slightly to Lynn, giving a knightly salute, and then vanished as if he had never been there.

The platform at the top of the divine tower is paved with golden stones inscribed with divine runes, and the gently swirling energy fills the air with a solemn and majestic feeling.

Lynn took a step, his footsteps echoing on the shimmering ground.

He passed through a dreamlike, ethereal veil and entered the glittering golden temple platform.

Almost the instant he stepped onto the platform, the young figures who had been silently meditating and cultivating in various places all raised their heads.

A barrage of gazes, sharp as blades, some scrutinizing, some wary, and some even carrying a hint of ill will, all fell upon Lynn.

Lynn's heart stirred, and his mind quietly shifted as he began to retrieve the memories belonging to "Fao" in his mind, trying to discern the identities and backgrounds of these people.

These people gathered here are clearly not ordinary; each one is a leading figure among the younger generation of goddesses.

However, just as he was searching his memory, a somewhat inappropriate and flippant voice suddenly rang out from one side of the hall, breaking the brief tranquility under the radiance.

"Tsk tsk, it's actually our Lord Fao."

"I heard you spent some time in the Wizard Legion's 'guesthouse.' I wonder what the prison conditions were like there? Could you explain it to us, your unsophisticated companions?"

The voice had a deliberately drawn-out tone, and the sarcasm was almost impossible to hide.

Lynn turned his gaze and saw several figures standing leisurely in a corner not far away, chatting and laughing, yet exuding an aura that should not be underestimated.

The speaker was a handsome man with long blond hair.

He was dressed in a well-tailored mage's robe, his eyes gleaming with amusement, and a mocking smile playing on his lips, seemingly disregarding Lynn completely.

The others were also extraordinary; the men were handsome and the women were beautiful, and the divine power flowing within them rippled like gentle waves.

Lynn roughly sensed that they were all high-level experts of level six to seven, slightly inferior to the "Fao" body, but still among the top ranks.

"Who is this? Why does Fao have absolutely no memory of him..."

Lynn's expression was slightly serious, because he couldn't sense any information about the person who had made the sarcastic remarks in Fao's memory.

At the same time, Lynn also sighed slightly, realizing that no matter which civilization there is, as long as there are intelligent beings, there will inevitably be confrontations.

A young genius like Fao is clearly the kind of protagonist who naturally attracts ridicule; even a slight misstep will draw mockery. At this moment, Lynn has been publicly humiliated, and all eyes are on him. Therefore, even to maintain Fao's status, he cannot ignore the situation.

Lynn remained calm, his eyes indifferent, his expression unwavering. He simply walked steadily toward the blond youth.

His steps were steady, his aura as imposing as a mountain, like a sleeping beast, exuding an undeniable sense of oppression without making a sound.

At this moment, all eyes on the platform were drawn to it.

Everyone stared with bated breath.

Many people have heard of Fao, the arrogant young knight who dared to be disrespectful even to the priests.

He's not the type to be easy to talk to.

Now someone is openly mocking him; if it were Faio in the past, he probably would have already punched him and broken the deadlock.

Will he make a move?

"Or should we endure it? If a fight breaks out in the sacred ritual setting, even Lady Cindy will find it difficult to exonerate him..."

"This is a test of Fao... If he endures it, he will be looked down upon; if he gets angry, he will give others a handle to use against him."

Many people secretly speculated, their faces showing subtle expressions and their eyes filled with anticipation.

Lynn walked calmly to the blond mage, his steps unhurried.

He stopped, looked up, and slowly raised his eyes, which were as cold as frost and filled with innate pride. His gaze seemed to look down on the mortal world from the clouds, and he uttered a sentence indifferently.

The sound wasn't loud, but it seemed to pierce the silence of the entire temple.

“...A level three archmage is indeed beyond my current ability to contend with.”

"Being captured disgraced the goddess's glory; it was my fault."

After he finished speaking, there was silence. Everyone's eyes flickered, thinking he was about to bow his head and admit his mistake.

However, Lynn's tone suddenly turned sharp as he changed his words:

"But who are you?"

"Do I even know you? How dare you spout such nonsense here?"

boom!
These words echoed like thunder throughout the top of the temple.

In an instant, everyone was stunned. The air seemed to freeze, and even breathing became heavy.

Immediately afterwards, several suppressed laughs burst out from the crowd; some simply lowered their heads and covered their mouths, while others simply sneered out loud.

At that moment, even the most obtuse person could hear the sarcasm in Lynn's words.

He didn't retaliate or hurl insults, but instead used the simplest and most direct method to utterly crush the other party into the dust.

"I do not know you."

Those present were all renowned young prodigies in the Divine Kingdom camp. Even if they were not supreme disciples, they were all core seeds that major forces were focusing on cultivating.

However, Lynn, in full view of everyone, asked in public, "Who are you?"

It not only negates the other person's status, but also their sense of existence.

If being defeated is a mistake, then being casually forgotten and publicly humiliated as an unknown is an indisputable disgrace.

Especially after that remark, "How dare you spout nonsense here?", many people in the audience secretly gasped.

The blond mage's face instantly turned purplish-red, like a comical clown whose mask had been removed.

His eyes were fixed on Lynn, his mocking smile now frozen, replaced by suppressed rage that was almost out of control.

"Fao!! How dare you insult Lord Terence!? You're asking for death!!"

With a roar, his aura surged instantly, becoming as violent as a burst of flames, causing the surrounding air to distort slightly.

If it weren't for his companions quickly intervening, Terence would probably have already pounced on Lynn and started a fight.

Even so, his almost tangible anger pushed the atmosphere to the brink of a tense standoff.

Lynn, on the other hand, remained calm, even with a hint of unintentional sarcasm on her lips.

He raised an eyebrow slightly and repeated softly, "Terrence...?"

He then shook his head slightly, as if he had thought about it seriously, before adding indifferently:
"...I still have no recollection of it."

It's like adding fuel to the fire.

Terence, who had already been stopped, was so angry that he almost lost his mind. A powerful force surged within him, like a flood breaking through a dam, and he almost broke free of his restraints.

Just as the atmosphere was about to explode, an extremely cold yet undeniable voice suddenly rang out from above the divine tower:

"Who dares to act presumptuously before the goddess's glory? If there's a next time, get out."

The voice wasn't loud, but every word was sharp and penetrating to the soul.

Following closely behind was a heavy, oppressive aura, like a mountain, a majestic divine punishment descending from the depths of the divine realm, crashing down upon Terence.

boom!
Terence's imposing aura shattered like paper. He staggered back more than ten steps, his face turning as pale as paper, cold sweat beading on his forehead, and even his lips trembling.

That was the pressure of a true level nine expert, burning with divine power and not to be defied.

On the tower of gods, the group of young geniuses who had been eager to make their move all stiffened, lowered their heads, and none of them dared to utter a word.

Terence was no exception; he dared not continue his rampage, though a hint of malice lingered in his eyes as he kept his gaze fixed on Lynn.

However, Lynn turned around gently at that moment, her eyes calm as still water.

He didn't linger, but walked to a corner on one side of the platform where no one would disturb him. He slowly sat down and closed his eyes.

He seemed to be shut out of the brilliance and distractions of the outside world. His consciousness sank into his mind, quietly retrieving the fragmented memories belonging to "Fao".

To be honest, he didn't want to get involved in any messy opportunities, after all, he wasn't a pure cultivator of the divine system.

He was a wizard, and although those resources were very precious, it was a big question mark and uncertain how useful they would be to him.

Therefore, if possible, Lynn wanted to find a place to slowly study Fao's memories first, rather than directly participating in this battle for opportunity.

He guessed from the tense atmosphere that there would probably be more fights over opportunities.

But now, he can't unleash his full power.

Therefore, from any perspective, participating in such an opportunity cannot be considered a good thing.

But his current nominal teacher simply sent someone to bring him here, without giving him any choice at all.

Time passed slowly, and with the ninth-level expert speaking up, no one dared to continue to act recklessly in front of the goddess's glory.

Rumble!
After an unknown amount of time, a faint golden light finally emanated from the top platform of the divine tower.

Everyone on the platform blinked; clearly, the opportunity had arrived!
