Abyssal Demons

The information that can be displayed on a blackboard is limited.

But this had already shocked Han Dong enough, making him even more curious about the world outside the city.

Just as the world underwent a dramatic transformation after humanity gained control of it... During the two centuries that a higher being occupied the world, entirely new civilizations, races, and colonial practices ushered in a new era.

Modern historians have designated the day when the Holy City was established and humanity, confined to small spaces, managed to survive as the "Dark Age."

Darkness descends, and only the flame of destiny can guide humanity forward in this boundless darkness.

Han Dong raised his hand, indicating that he wanted to ask a question.

The witch looked impatient. "I told you, this lesson is just a brief introduction, and that's enough for you to prepare for the training camp."

If you want to know more about what's outside the city, go to the library yourself after you return alive. Or ask your mentor directly.

That concludes today's lesson... Mia, come with me.

This is your first time leaving the city, so it's necessary to make some magical preparations.

"Good..."

Mia glanced at Han Dong reluctantly before following the witch away.

Han Dong, on the contrary, was delighted. It was the best situation for Mia to be taken away like this, so that she wouldn't keep bothering him... Moreover, Han Dong could directly ask Mr. Black and White if he had any questions.

Do you want to know this?

It happened exactly one second after the witch left.

Mr. Black and White gently held the chalk with his White Gloves and circled a word on the blackboard.

[Otherworldly Demon]

The witch used the term "otherworldly demon" many times when explaining the lower-level beings, and it was mentioned in the deep evolution of "the Matrix" and cultists.

But the witch seemed to deliberately avoid the topic, offering no explanation of the so-called 'demons'.

Just like how Han Dong and his team won't encounter such beings during their training camp outside the city.

Han Dong nodded and replied, "Hmm... The low-level life forms, Wild Monster, and humans introduced on the blackboard are all evil."

Essentially, they are all life forms from the original world, evolved under the influence of the ' Dark Age ', right? Then what are the true life forms outside the city? Are they the [Otherworldly Demons] mentioned on the blackboard?

What kind of being is it?

Han Dong was quite curious about the real life outside the city... What kind of Higher Lifeforms were awakening in the darkness and bringing near-apocalyptic disaster to humanity?

Mr. Black and White patiently explained, "The lower-level life forms explained by the witch are academically classified as ' Exotic Species '."

Indeed, as you said, it was formed based on the original world's life forms and influenced by external factors.

[Otherworldly Demon].

This is the main culprit that led to the end of the world.

Academically, they are classified as "Origin Species." Their numbers are not large, and their reproductive capacity is "limited." For otherworldly demons to reproduce, certain conditions must be met.

The term 'Otherworldly Demons' refers to this broad category of Higher Lifeforms, which can be further subdivided. The origins, formation methods, abilities, and threat levels of various Otherworldly Demons differ.

The library is located at the Depths.

There is a book called "The Abyssal Demon Codex" that records the otherworldly demons that the Holy City has come into contact with so far, and each one is quite dangerous.

Since you are more than fifty kilometers away from the Holy City, there is a very small chance that you might encounter such Origin Species.

The witch explained that these lower-level life forms' origins were inextricably linked to the [Otherworldly Demons].

"Then..." Han Dong pointed to the back of his left hand, where the "Yellow Seal" was located, "Is this Yellow Robe Mysterious Person also associated with a kind of demon?"

Mr. Black and White shook his finger. "No... there are many kinds of demons, but they are basically classified as the 'middle level', while the [Yellow-Clad] we have secretly established a relationship with belongs to the 'high level'."

As I said, comparing the Yellow Robes' position outside the city to the Great Plague's position within our Holy City is like comparing them to the Great Plague Lord's position within our city.

"High position!?"

"Using low, medium, and high as a simple classification is just to make it easier for you young people to understand."

It has a more complex and detailed classification system in essence... You can come back and learn about it slowly after you leave the city with the Behemoth Knight Order this time.

The outside world is far more dangerous than you imagine.

Over two hundred years, the existence of Higher Lifeforms has transformed the Outside World into a completely new world adapted to their habitation and life.

This training camp is indeed quite far from the city.

Moreover, the training camp was located in an abandoned manor inhabited by a large number of humans.

If you encounter an insurmountable danger and there is no timely support from the Knight Order.

Let's call 'it' to help."

"Good!"

Han Dong went straight back to his dormitory room afterward.

I will organize the knowledge about the outside world that I learned today into my notebook in detail.

He himself was also increasingly eager to learn about the area outside the city.

"After the training camp ends, it's necessary to go to the library to get a basic understanding of the outside world's systems... That's interesting."

For the remainder of the day, Han Dong spoke with the two Contained Object in the prison, instructing them to prepare to leave the city and confront the life outside.

Han Dong, who was planning to rest early, had just come out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.

Knock knock knock!

There was a knock on the door.

It wasn't Mia who came knocking... it was Cas.

When the Door Opening, they found Cas carrying a finely crafted Beast Skin backpack, which seemed to contain quite a few things.

Cas still vividly remembers the incident of his father being 'saved'! He completely regards Han Dong as a brother.

Considering that this was Han Dong's first time leaving the city for training, a series of essential items for leaving the city were specially prepared for Han Dong.

The two sat on the edge of the bed, Cas opened the Beast Skin backpack and gave a brief explanation of how to use the tools.

"Brother Cas, these things must be worth a lot of money, right?"

"No problem... This portable kerosene lamp that can be used for a long time was made by Koslin and it's free. The other props were bought at market price and are nothing special."

Because the training methods differ for different grades, we couldn't train together.

However, since you are new students, the Behemoth Knight Order will secretly take good care of you... But with your strength, Brother Allen, passing the training camp shouldn't be a problem."

Because of Cas's previous enthusiasm, he forgot to close the door when he squeezed into the dormitory, leaving it ajar.

Just then, another female customer came to the door; it was Mia.

She held a document in her hand, which contained detailed information about the Newcomer team members that Han Dong had entrusted her to compile.

"Nicholas, I've brought you the materials you requested..."

Mia froze halfway through her sentence.

Han Dong, wrapped only in a bath towel, sat on the edge of the bed with a handsome and strong blond guy.

Furthermore, various metal and leather props were scattered on the bed...

This scene was a huge visual shock to Mia!

Her face flushed with excitement, she quickly placed the documents in her hand by the door and said softly, "You guys continue, I won't disturb you."
