Due to the rib injury.
The team decided to escort Han Dong all the way to the Mysterious Academy Building.
They rented a special carriage to the Dark Moon Forest.
Under the cover of the Dark Moon, Sophia’s attribute of Holy Light was immediately suppressed, and also attracted the attention of many ‘Forest Residents’.
You could see clearly through the carriage window.
In the Dark Forest, pairs of staring eyes, of different sizes, were focusing on the carriage. Sophia was scared and clung tightly to Cass.
Just as these native creatures in the forest were about to reveal themselves.
Caw Caw Caw!
A flock of crows landed on the branches on both sides of the road. Their caws immediately forced these dangerous inhabitants to retreat back to their homes, deterring them from any malicious intent towards the carriage.
After the situation subsided, Cass suddenly recalled something.
“Your Mysterious Department is really ‘dangerous’… That’s right! Brother Valen, you’ll participate in [the Knights’ Joint Training] next time, won’t you?”
“Knight Joint training? I’ve never heard of it.”
“No wonder… You just entered the Knight Academy. There’s a lot of things that Mr. Black White hasn’t told you yet.
[Knight Joint Training] is a special training organized once every term by the school. Not everyone can participate.
Only the most promising students from each college can participate in this week-long hellish training after they pass a series of preliminary tests.
I was able to confront the BOSS head-on this time because I participated and passed the last round of training… Just thinking about it gives me a headache. If you really decide to go, be sure to physically train in advance.”
“Alright, I’ll ask Mr. Black White when I get back… Contact me if anything comes up.”
(Ten minutes)
[Stargazing Room]
Han Dong was already sitting on the warm animal hide sofa, holding a cup of ‘Star Falling Crow’, a cocktail mixed personally by Mr. Black White, with a surface covered in glowing specks and a black bottom.
The instant he drank it.
He felt spirited, and his internal injuries seemed to be slowly healing.
“Do you know how much the materials for this drink would cost?”
“Uh… 100?”
“2000 copper coins. However, the most important thing is still the mixing technique.”
This revelation made Han Dong, who just finished his cocktail, want to vomit out the drink and sell it for thousands of copper coins.
He had to find a solution himself for his injury issue.
“This is a little reward I’m giving you for clearing the Four-star Difficulty … Your progress is very rapid, which is both a good and bad thing.
Despite having grown into a Four-Star Occult Apprentice in a short span of time, your basic foundation is still lacking.
Fate Points only ‘expand your growth space’, and your actual strength needs to be improved via learning, practicing, and experience.
If we leave out your ‘Pollution Ability’, your real strength is just slightly higher than that of a two-star.”
Han Dong admitted to this analysis of himself.
If he doesn’t use the containment objects, Little Demon Eye, or Tentacle Ability, and merely relies on some of his plague abilities, his strength is quite common.
Mr. Black White held up three fingers.
“In three months, I hope that you can make rapid progress in your basic studies of Mysticism and manage to reach the standard of a Four-star Occult Apprentice.
Afterward, I’ll sign you up to participate in the next session of the [Knight’s Joint Training].
Of course, you’ll need to pass the qualification test for the training on your own.”
Unexpectedly, just after Cass had mentioned the Joint Training outside, Mr. Black White brought up the matter here.
“What will the Knight’s Joint Training be like, approximately?”
“The training will be led by the Knight Regiment. It will take place in a training camp located no more than five kilometers outside the City Wall.
Only excellent Apprentice Knights can participate. It’s very helpful when it comes to the practicing and honing of your skills.”
“Outside … the City Wall?!”
“Five kilometers is not really that much. Because of the influence of the City Wall, ‘Big Creatures’ are generally unwilling to approach.
Only some ‘Small Creatures’ will try to find food near the City Wall.
Plus, the training is led by the Knight Regiment. As long as you obey orders, the probability of accidental death is very low.”
“Alright.”
“In any case, three months! You must reach the level that a Four-star Occult Apprentice should be at… at that time, I’ll test you myself. If you don’t meet the standards, you needn’t bother about the [Knight Joint Training].”
“Understood!”
Han Dong was very clear about Mr. Black White’s intentions. With the assistance of the ‘Little Demon Eye’, and coupled with his own learning abilities, he would be able to keep up with the speed of learning.
At this point, Mr. Black White crossed his hands in front of his mask and asked quietly:
“Let’s discuss the grand award you won this time… Wish. Have you thought it through?”
Han Dong nodded immediately. He used the spare pen and paper to write a string of English words, and handed it to Mr . Black White.
“This thing… Let me check.”
Mr. Black White seemed to be searching the total database of Holy City through a special dark mechanical device in his hand.
“Nope, it’s not in Holy City… This one-off item unique to Fate Space is seldom donated by knights.”
Han Dong looked helpless. This was a wish that he had thought of a week before when he was in plague training… After experiencing the dangers of [The Return of the Clown (Surface Chapter)], he was even more determined in this idea.
Besides, Han Dong found this item on the surface of the ‘Dyson Sphere’. He would need 300 points to exchange for a small bottle of it.
“I wonder if Mr. Black White can let me go to Fate Space alone.”
“Huh!?”
Hearing Han Dong’s wish, Mr. Black White was briefly stunned.
Han Dong could have totally asked for a premium equipment or a high-level mystic book, or a large sum of money.
But Han Dong’s wish was very peculiar.
What’s written on the paper was also weird.
In the absence of this one-off item, Han Dong unexpectedly wanted to use such a great opportunity to go to Fate Space again.
Mr. Black White explained slightly, “After becoming an Apprentice Knight, there’s a cooldown period for Fate Space, which is [One Year].
If you enter Fate Space during the cooldown period, although the base difficulty will not increase and you can also get related item rewards, you won’t be able to get the crucially important ‘Fate Points’.”
Han Dong had already asked Cass about this information on their way back.
Entering Fate Space continuously is ‘unreasonable’ and ‘not allowed’.
Moreover, even after the cooldown period ended.
Holy City also forbade individuals from entering Fate Space. The death rate for individuals entering Fate Space alone was too high and it won’t foster a ‘team knight spirit’.
Since the Holy City didn’t have the item Han Dong needed, and Han Dong happened to obtain a ‘privilege’ card,
Han Dong made such a decision.
This ‘required item’ was extremely important to Han Dong.
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
“When you’re ready, come to the [Stargazing Room] to find me… I’m a little curious, are you an expert in this field?” Mr. Black White pointed at the words written by Han Dong on the paper.
“Kind of.”
Just like that, the conversation with Mr. Black White temporarily came to a halt.
“Mr. Black White, I’m going to rest first.”
Just as Han Dong was about to stand up.
Knock knock knock!
Someone was knocking on the door of the Stargazing Room.
The knocking was loud and completely impolite.
