Due to rib injury.

The team insisted on personally escorting Han Dong to the mysterious department building.

They rented a special carriage and went directly to Dark Moon Forest.

When shrouded in the dark moon, Sophia's holy light attribute was immediately suppressed, which also attracted the attention of a large number of 'forest dwellers'.

It could be clearly seen through the carriage window.

In the Dark Forest, pairs of eyes of different sizes were staring intently at the carriage, frightening Sophia into clinging tightly to Cas.

Just as these forest natives were about to appear.

Caw~ caw~ caw!

A flock of crows flew and perched on the branches on both sides of the road. Their cawing immediately sent the dangerous residents back to their nests, making them dare not have any thoughts about the carriage.

After things calmed down, Cas suddenly remembered something.

"Your Mysticism Department is really 'dangerous'... By the way! Brother Valen, you'll be participating in the next [Knight Training Camp], right?"

"Knight Training Camp? Never heard of it."

"No wonder... You've just entered the Knight Academy, and there are many things Mr. Black and White probably haven't told you yet."

[Knight Training Camp] A special training camp held by the school every other semester, which not everyone can participate in.

Only the top students from each department, after passing a series of benchmark tests before the training camp, are eligible to participate and undergo a week of grueling training.

The reason I was able to face the boss head-on this time was because I participated in and passed the previous round of intensive training... Just thinking about it gives me a headache. If you really want to go, make sure you're physically fit beforehand."

"Well, I'll ask Mr. Black and White when I get back... Please feel free to contact me if anything comes up."

... (ten minutes)

Stargazing Room

Han Dong was already seated on the warm Beast Skin sofa, holding a glass of "Starfall Crow," a cocktail made by Mr. Black and White —a cocktail with shimmering spots on the surface and a black base.

The moment it goes down.

Full of Spirit, and his internal injuries were even slowly healing.

Do you know how much the ingredients for this drink cost?

"Hmm...100?"

"2000 Copper Coin, but the most important thing is its processing technique."

This remark made Han Dong, who had just finished drinking a cocktail, want to spit it out and sell it for a few thousand Copper Coin.

I need to figure out how to deal with the injury myself.

"This is a small reward for you after you cleared the four-star difficulty event... Your progress is too fast, which has both advantages and disadvantages."

Although you have grown into a four-star Mysticism Apprentice in a short period of time, your basic skills are still not up to par.

Destiny Points only expand your 'growth potential'; true strength needs to be improved through learning, cultivation, and experience.

If we disregard your 'poisoning ability,' your true strength is probably only slightly stronger than a two-star.

Han Dong himself also acknowledged this statement.

If he doesn't use Contained Object, the Lesser Demon Eye, and the tentacle abilities, relying solely on some plague abilities, his strength is quite ordinary.

Mr. Black and White held up three fingers.

"I hope you can make rapid progress in your studies of the fundamentals of mysticism within three months, reaching the level expected of a four-star Mysticism Apprentice."

After that, I will register you for the next [Knight Training Camp].

Of course, you have to pass the selection test during the training camp yourself.

I didn't expect that Mr. Black and White would bring this up here after I had just heard Cas talking about the training camp outside.

"In what format will the Knight Training Camp be conducted?"

"The training will be conducted by the Knight Order, within a training camp no more than five kilometers outside the city walls."

Only outstanding Knight-Errant can participate; it will greatly help improve your skills.

"Outside the city walls...?!"

"Five kilometers is nothing. Due to the influence of the city wall, 'big things' are generally unwilling to get close."

Only a few 'small creatures' will try to forage near the city walls.

Furthermore, with the Knight Order leading the way, as long as you follow orders, the probability of accidental death is very low.

"Um."

"In short, three months!"

You need to reach the level expected of a four-star Mysticism Apprentice ... I will personally test you then. If you don't meet the standard, you won't be able to participate in the [Knight Training Camp].

"Clear!"

Han Dong was well aware of Mr. Black and White's good intentions. With the assistance of the "Lesser Demon Eye" and Han Dong's own learning ability, he was sure he could keep up with the learning speed.

At this moment, Mr. Black and White crossed his hands in front of his mask and asked in a low voice:

"Next, let's talk about the big prize you won this time... Have you thought about your wish?"

Han Dong nodded quickly, used the spare paper and pen to write a string of English words, and handed it to Mr. Black and White.

"This thing... let me look it up."

Mr. Black and White seemed to be searching the Holy City's overall database through a special black Clockwork Device in his hand.

"No, the entire Holy City doesn't have what you're looking for... These one-time-use items, unique to the Destiny Space, are rarely handed over by knights."

Han Dong looked helpless. This was a wish he had thought of a week ago when he was undergoing plague training... After the dangerous experience of "It (the first part)," he became even more determined to have this idea.

Moreover, Han Dong found this thing on the surface of the ' Dyson Sphere ', and it takes 300 points to exchange for a small bottle.

"I wonder if Mr. Black and White could let me go to the Destiny Space once, alone."

"Um!?"

After hearing Han Dong's wish, Mr. Black and White was slightly taken aback.

Han Dong could easily ask him for a top-tier piece of equipment, a high-level book on mysticism, or a large sum of money.

Han Dong's wish was quite strange.

The things written on the note were also very strange.

Without this one-time use item, Han Dong actually wanted to take advantage of this great opportunity to go to the Destiny Space again.

Mr. Black and White explained briefly, "After becoming Knight-Errant, there is a cooldown period for the Destiny Space, which lasts for one year."

If you enter the Destiny Space during the cooldown period, the base difficulty will not be increased, and you will still receive related item rewards, but you will not obtain the crucial "Destiny Points."

Han Dong learned all this information from Cas on his way back.

Continuously entering the Destiny Space is 'unreasonable' and 'not allowed'.

Moreover, even after the cooldown period ends.

The Holy City also prohibits individuals from entering the Destiny Space, as the mortality rate for going deep into the Destiny Space alone is too high and it is impossible to cultivate 'team Chivalric spirit '.

There was nothing Han Dong needed in the entire Holy City, and Han Dong just happened to receive a 'Power' card.

Han Dong made this decision.

This 'required item' is extremely important to Han Dong.

Are you sure?

"I'm sure."

"When you're ready, come find me in the Stargazing Room ... I'm a little curious, are you an expert in this area?" Mr. Black and White pointed to the words Han Dong had written on the paper.

"I guess so."

And so, the conversation with Mr. Black and White came to a temporary end.

"Mr. Black and White, I'm going to rest now."

Just as Han Dong got up.

Knock knock knock!

There was a knock on the door of the Stargazing Room.

The banging was loud and extremely impolite.

In the comments section, feel free to make your guesses about what the 'required item' is. Those who guess correctly will receive a large cash reward!
