Charlotte felt like she was about to burst.

Vast amounts of "faith power" surged in from all directions, quickly absorbed by the divine fire in her chest, which then rapidly strengthened her divine power.

The blood divine power that had been consumed due to her voluntary crossing was almost instantly replenished, the endless divine power so abundant it was nearly overflowing.

But this was not the end. In Charlotte's perception, she felt as if she were a bowl submerged in a sea, surrounded by an ocean of "faith power".

And that "faith power"… continued to surge towards her, being absorbed by the transformation of the divine fire.

No…

It's not quite accurate to call this power "faith power".

More precisely, it was the "extraordinary power" absorbed from believers through the faith network woven by the deities.

Charlotte was quite astonished.

If it weren't for the magical record stone placed beside her coffin before her sleep that confirmed she had indeed been asleep for "three and a half years," she might have even doubted whether she had slept for three hundred years instead.

Otherwise, how could the faith network of the Dark Night Church she established possibly have accumulated such a massive amount of "extraordinary power"?

No…

Even if she had been asleep for three hundred years, it would likely have been difficult to gather such an enormous amount of energy.

Charlotte could sense just how outrageous the energy she was connected to was.

If she were to compare her own power to this, her strength would be like a small pond before the sea in the face of such "extraordinary power".

"This shouldn't be the extraordinary power accumulated by the Dark Night Church over these three and a half years."

Charlotte quickly came to this conclusion.

Fortunately, her level of power was ultimately higher than these "extraordinary powers," and as a mythical being, she had long since learned how to control these powers.

The divine fire trembled slightly, and Charlotte quickly closed off the channel between the extraordinary power and divine power, and that omnipresent extraordinary power finally ceased to flow in.

It was only then that Charlotte had the time to see what was going on.

She spread her divine consciousness, extending along the ocean-like extraordinary power, and soon realized she might have connected into the faith network of other deities.

The reason was simple, because through those faith powers, Charlotte "saw" the galaxy-like scattering of light points.

Those were the light points representing believers.

Charlotte was astonished once more.

This time, it was by the number of those light points.

The sheer number of those light points was beyond counting, endless, compared to Charlotte's own number of believers, it was like starshine to the sun.

It was a number of believers that could be measured in the "billions".

The Blood Holy Scripture in the depths of her consciousness throbbed incessantly, and the primordial mist within her divine fire began to churn ceaselessly.

Innumerable voices of prayer came from all directions, entering Charlotte's mind:

"Praise the holy! May next year again be a bountiful harvest."

"Great Divine Lord, may Your glory shelter Your humble servant."

"O Lord! Almighty Creator God! Your lamb, Your sinner comes to confess to You…"

"…"

Charlotte: …

Her eyes suddenly widened, her face full of disbelief.

Good heavens…

She had actually connected to the faith network of the Holy Royal Court!

"Hiss… Could it be that this is a chain reaction caused by absorbing Haral's holy power while rescuing him?"

Charlotte's expression was a bit peculiar.

Mythical beings who create pathways of faith weave faith networks, granting believers strength and absorbing the extraordinary power siphoned off during a believer's growth through the faith network.

The Holy Royal Court was no exception.

Moreover, as Charlotte knew, the faith network of the Holy Royal Court was even larger than the network of ordinary deific faiths, because it was a faith network shared among an entire divine system.

However, just as Charlotte marveled at her accidental entry into the Holy Royal Court's faith network, she also noticed the rapid consumption of her accumulated primordial mist.

Charlotte's heart stirred, and she soon realized that this connection also had to do with the accumulated primordial mist.

"Wait… this could be an opportunity, since I've accidentally entered the Holy Royal Court's faith network, then… perhaps I can take this opportunity to investigate Haral and the state of the sub-gods of the Holy Royal Court."

Charlotte thought.

This was a very bold idea, if it were before, Charlotte definitely wouldn't dare to do this, because it could likely be discovered by the deities within the faith network, seen as an invasion.

But now, she had a secret weapon capable of deceiving the heavens.

Charlotte delved into her consciousness, releasing the remaining primordial mist from the divine fire, the mist enveloped her divine power, soon radiating holy brilliance.

This was another method of utilizing the primordial mist that Charlotte explored during her three and a half years of crossing.

As a power produced by the fusion of holy power and blood divine power, she could let the primordial mist manifest each side's distinct qualities.

Although this doesn't change the essence of the Primordial Fog, it can disguise it to a certain extent.

In other words, at this moment, Charlotte can use the Primordial Fog to conceal her Blood Divine Power, disguising it as Holy Power for silent exploration.

Charlotte was quite curious about Haral's current state; after all, in the history she "created," the other party became her disciple.

She didn't know how long her accidental entry this time could last, but... it was definitely not a normal connection.

So, using this connection, it would be best to gather more intelligence about the deities of the Holy Royal Court.

Following the omnipresent "power of faith," Charlotte traced back to the endpoint of the Faith Network; soon, she found her direction.

In her perception, the nodes of this immense Faith Network seemed to be located above the whole world.

Charlotte followed the flow of Transcendent Power, and her vision kept rising. Soon... she saw plains, mountains, rivers... she saw the entire Mireya World and the stars above it.

She saw the endpoint of the Faith Network, a golden star, radiant and wrapped in immense Holy Power.

Upon that star, it seemed as if countless beings were praying, and there were countless Divine Halls shrouded in Holy Light.

Charlotte paused slightly, quickly recalling that this was not the first time she had seen this scene.

As early as when she first ascended to the Starry Rank, she had accidentally entered a world similar to a "Divine Country," and now... she was here again.

Indeed, the endpoint of the Holy Royal Court's Faith Network, the world of the Holy Realm, was actually the world she "saw" during her ascension to the Starry Rank!

Upon realizing this fact, Charlotte soon saw again the tall hall held by many Divine Halls, seeing within the hall the majestic platinum Divine Throne, seeing seated upon the throne the Light Giant with whom she had once had a unilateral conversation.

But this time, Charlotte saw clearly the form of the "Light Giant."

It was not truly a "giant" but a scepter radiating light.

The scepter was golden, engraved with exquisite patterns and the Ring Cross symbolizing the Holy Royal Court, incomparably magnificent and sacred.

It lay on the throne, emitting dazzling brilliance, enveloping the entire star, seemingly guarding the entire world.

Charlotte quickly realized that this was likely a Divine Artifact with intelligence.

What had "warned" her after she "peered" here during her previous ascension was probably not any deity, but this divine artifact.

However, the feeling it gave Charlotte was no longer as terrifying as before; in Charlotte's perception, its strength seemed to only be at the peak demigod level.

This was not because the other became weaker, but because Charlotte had become stronger.

And behind that scepter, at the back of the throne, was a tightly closed golden gate.

The door was surrounded by layers of golden chains, covered with golden inscriptions, exuding a holy yet ancient aura.

Charlotte saw the scepter and the door.

At the same time, the other party also noticed Charlotte's power.

Golden radiance gathered upon the throne.

Charlotte watched as the scepter slowly ascended, and then... gradually transformed into a phantom human form.

It was a middle-aged man draped in magnificent robes.

Only, when Charlotte saw its appearance, she quickly paused.

There was no other reason, although the attire had changed, although the aura had changed, the appearance hadn't really changed.

That middle-aged man was none other than the hunter who "picked" Charlotte back to the tribe during her first historical crossing, Halfdan, the father of Haral and Lilith.

No...

More accurately, it was the Divine Artifact's artifact spirit, molded into Halfdan's likeness.

It's confirmed!

Divine Lord Haral... must be that disciple Haral she took in after crossing history!

Whether or not she had previous doubts, now Charlotte had none!

The holy brilliance continued spreading, Charlotte saw the artifact shaped as a human body bow in her direction.

Its demeanor was extremely respectful, its voice even more reverent and polite:

"Respected Your Majesty..."

"Judgment Day has not yet come, my lord has not yet awakened, you... have come too early."

Judgment Day?

Charlotte paused slightly.

She was just about to say something, but felt the surrounding Holy Power suddenly begin to reject her.

The entire world quickly receded; Charlotte only felt her connection to the Faith Network starting to rapidly slow.

She suddenly woke up, having already returned to reality, and the omnipresent "faith power" had also disappeared.

No, not entirely disappeared, deep in consciousness, above the Blood Holy Scripture, Charlotte saw a golden symbol had appeared at some point.

It was a spinning Ring Cross, the symbol of the Holy Royal Court, and through that symbol, Charlotte seemed to faintly feel the presence of "faith power."

And at this moment, Charlotte sensed a familiar aura rapidly approaching, accompanied by the aura's approach was an incredibly excited voice echoing in her heart:

"Lord Charlotte! Great Lord Charlotte! Great True Ancestor Your Majesty, my great master, have you awakened? Have you awakened?!"

It was the black cat Nisi.
