This kind of equipment only had basic stat effects—weapons added attack, clothes added defense.

Only equipment that had reached a tier possessed extraordinary power.

If this were a game, Ryan wouldn't have given this kind of gear a second glance.

But in reality, obtaining extraordinary equipment was far too difficult. Even with the game system's monster-kill loot drops, the drop rate was terrifyingly low. Aside from steamed buns and Soul Jades, there weren't even many Roasted Chickens.

As for the normal way to acquire extraordinary equipment, aside from what already existed in reality, you had to offer sacrifices to the gods—the same process as obtaining a class-change relic.

So after seeing the Black Gloves, Ryan was in a great mood.

[You have passed Janus's trial.]

He shifted his gaze, and a new message popped up.

Inside the somewhat messy church, a strand of silvery light suddenly descended from the massive statue of Janus, landing on 'Lin Qi'.

At the same time, the five Ancient Evil Spirit Remnant fragments in the backpack automatically fused together, turning into a complete token.

[Ancient Evil Spirit Remnant: A powerful evil spirit that existed in the Old Ancient Era. It can be transformed into an Evil Attached Spirit for combat through a ritual. According to the Sacred Canon's records, users are often given some kind of mysterious title.]

[Class-change ritual triggered. Proceed with class change?]

[Class—'Silent Nun'.]

Ryan was stunned.

"Nun?"

[Silent Nun: The last messengers to walk the earth during the Age of the Fallen Gods. To carry out the divine will and pass on the faith, they fused their souls with spirits, driving spirits to fight, using slaughter as a substitute for redemption.]

['Your soul is already filthy beyond measure. Allow me to offer you redemption.' — Silent Nun]

[Class requirement: Female]

Seeing the class description, Ryan searched through his memory but couldn't find any relevant information.

Although he hadn't progressed very far in the game, he had browsed a lot of official website material and could name quite a few hidden classes. But 'Silent Nun' was definitely something he was hearing for the first time.

However, when he saw the class requirement, he understood. This thing was a hidden class to begin with—the officials wouldn't release it directly. And the big shots on the forums were all first-person shooter experts, addicted to shooting and unable to stop. Very, very few played female characters.

Not that there were none, but they made up only a tiny fraction of the total player base. They might not browse the forums, and even if they did, they might not be able to unlock the 'Silent Nun' class.

With such a small probability within a small probability, it was normal that Ryan had never heard of it.

After thinking for a moment, he chose to change class.

The Silent Nun clearly seemed to be a combat-oriented type, and since she worshipped Janus, judging by the difficulty, she should be stronger than the Soul Eater.

[An ancient echo descends. Bathed in Janus's divinity, you are reborn.]

[Item consumed: Mana Potion.]

Clang!~

This time it wasn't a bell, but the so-called 'echo'.

An echo was the voice of a god.

[Class change successful.]

The light gradually faded until the church fell into darkness once more.

Ryan opened the stats panel, and the first thing that caught his eye was 'Lin Qi's' new character image—she wore a gray-black nun's habit, surrounded by black flamelike wisps. The hem of her robe moved without wind, and her shadow also swayed, as if a formless evil spirit clung to her back.

Silver hair, crimson eyes.

Mysterious, cold!

[Skills]

[Class Exclusive—]

[Spirit Summon: The Silent Nun summons a spirit to fight. It is the shadow that kills, the blade without form. The spirit's combat power increases with the character's mana.]

[Spirit Entanglement: The Silent Nun fuses with the spirit, greatly enhancing combat ability. Effect is related to physique and mana.]

[Class Stat Growth]

[Physique: ★★★★☆]

[Spirit: ★★★★]

[Mana: ★★★★★]
