Kapitel 1480: Second Trial

Author's Note: Unedited Chapter

"We have to figure out the motive behind this trial," Gustav voiced in response while his face displayed a contemplative expression.

"Is that before or after we've been burnt to a crisp?" Stark said rhetorically.

"There's a pattern to the beam's targeting. It doesn't just strike; it lingers, building intensity over time once it hits a target," Gustav voiced out his analysis.

"So, it's testing endurance rather than strength?" Stark had an expression of realisation.

"Possibly. Perhaps to see how much I can handle," Gustav mumbled.

Deciding to test his theory, Gustav positioned himself directly in the path of the next beam. He knew this was a risky move, but it was the only way to potentially uncover the mechanics of this trial.

"Gustav, what are you doing?!" Stark yelled out in disbelief.

"Testing the theory. Just keep clear, Stark," Gustav stated.
