Library
For a typical Knight-Errant.
If one manages to survive in the perilous Destiny Space, it will inevitably take at least a week to rest and recuperate.
It's rare to see Knight-Errant like Han Dong who has just had a nap and hasn't even eaten yet, but is already heading to the library to study.
However, this was inevitable.
Since Han Dong has chosen to embark on this unusual path of minor cultivation, he must spend more time than ordinary people, not to mention that Han Dong also has some small actions outside the city.
On the private carriage heading to the library.
"I'll leave the city sometime after I've mastered the basics of magic at the library."
Anyway, the materials sent last time should be enough for the doctor to use for more than twenty days, and the basic facilities have been set up.
When I return after mastering the basics of magic, I can consult the Crow Person Elder for some special magical knowledge.
While we're at it, let's also find a way to revive the Head Nurse and get an assistant for Dr. Swollen.
"This time, the harvest has been truly plentiful..."
Han Dong pulled out the core searchlight he had taken from the "Lamp Man - Kanajima Soichiro" from his pocket. This item was the source of Han Dong's determination to make a 'long-term plan' to create a special weapon.
Fate Material - "Source of the Lighthouse (Lamp Tube)"
Quality: Epic
Category: Light-based magic materials
Effect: Provides the unique "Intense Light" attribute.
When crafted into a weapon: grants a significant boost to light attribute and provides a unique Intense Light skill.
When crafted into an accessory: Increases the wearer's Light magic damage and grants the ability "Sight," which can dispel environmental factors that obstruct vision, such as fog and darkness, up to the material's level. For those higher than the material's level, the effect will decrease with each level.
When combined with other materials of the same quality for 'forging', unexpected fusion effects may occur, as the light properties inherent in the materials themselves are more likely to catalyze related reactions during the forging process.
In special cases, the properties of the light source can be changed (such as dark light), depending on the blacksmith's requirements.
Epic Grade material.
This is the highest quality Han Dong has ever seen.
However, relying on just one material is not enough to create suitable equipment. Han Dong plans to rent nodes for two years and then use all his points to exchange for materials of the same epic quality in one go.
Then, we'll leverage Han Dong's 'power'.
Try to get some valuable materials from outside the city from the Crow People, or obtain some secret materials through Mr. Black and White's route.
In Han Dong's view.
By mixing the materials of destiny with the Chaos Materials from outside the city, the equipment he creates might be more suitable for him.
Once all the materials are ready, they will use the Wenli the Blacksmith as a conduit to have her or a more skilled blacksmith for forging.
Han Dong had a clear idea of what kind of equipment he wanted... Combining mysticism with the library, Han Dong had a unique development goal.
Job Title: [Librarian]
Compared to the other four professions, this one has a rather unique name.
The abilities it grants are mostly magical.
However, we must not simply lump all such knights together as magicians.
The term "magician" is too narrow; only "library" can encompass it completely.
Commonly seen Holy Light Priests, Elementals, Necromancers, and Alchemists all originate from the library.
At the same time, there are some professions that are rarely heard of by ordinary people, such as demon warlocks, spell binders, battle mages, and so on.
The field of libraries has the widest range of branches among the five major professions.
This is also the primary reason why many Newcomer choose the library; such a huge amount of uncertainty makes it easier for everyone to find their own suitable path in the learning process.
It is ranked first in popularity, tied with the Crusades.
In addition to its unique nature, the library also houses a school-level public facility such as a reading room, making it the largest library in terms of area among the five departments.
Due to the rarity of its collection, the library also boasts top-tier security measures.
Even students of this department need to verify their knight's badge to move around in various areas of the campus, and they also need to show approval documents when going to specific areas.
As for students from other colleges, they are not allowed to enter the library territory without special permission.
"Wow... Is this the territory of the [Library]? It's really 'heavily guarded'."
The carriage rented by Han Dong was warned when it was one kilometer away from the territory and was prohibited from going any further.
When stepping off the carriage.
The library's iconic structure—the ' Giant Obelisk' —is visible.
A total of nine Giant Obelisk surround the college.
The obelisks form a closed barrier between each other, and only those whose knightly badges are recognized as students of this department are allowed to pass.
The first attempt to force your way through will result in being bounced back by the barrier.
A second attempt to force an entry will activate the obelisk, triggering a devastating magical spell.
Meanwhile, each tutor inside the library carries an ornament called the "Eye of the Obelisk," which allows them to observe the situation outside the obelisk at any time.
"Nicholas... over here!"
A moment later, the handsome young man Demps, wearing a monocle, passed through the barrier and waved to Han Dong.
He still held a Temporary Pass that had been applied for for Han Dong, but it was still a troublesome matter if he wanted to enter and exit the library for a long time.
Han Dong came today to finalize the details of the 'long-term entry and exit' arrangement.
"Come with me... You have 3 points allocated to the library, I'm sure the teachers won't make things difficult for you."
When Dempsey heard that Han Dong had gained three Destiny Points through a single Destiny Event, Demps was surprisingly not particularly surprised... In his opinion, Han Dong had such 'ability'.
Upon entering the barrier with the Temporary Pass.
A magical academy, the kind you only see in fantasy movies, appeared before Han Dong.
In the spacious garden area, various plant-shaped human figures seem to be chatting with each other just like normal people.
Various colorful butterflies, which appear as a thin veil of mist in the air, flutter here.
A large group of people gathered around the fountain in the center of the garden, queuing to collect the "water of life" using only cups of a limited size.
Many students majoring in water, plant, and holy light are freely cultivating in this area.
Compared to the Mysticism Department area, this place is much more lively.
"This is the Life Zone, located directly East Side of the library."
The centrally located [Main Library Building], also known as the Magic Headquarters, forms the core, surrounded by nine special zones of different attributes; the current Life Zone is just one of them.
Where are we going now?
"We'll go straight to the Main Library Building. I've already mentioned you to Vice Curator Hera ... and she's agreed to see you."
Don't worry, I have a good relationship with Vice Curator Hera, so just relax when we talk.
As long as there aren't too many conflicts of interest, getting you a student pass shouldn't be a problem.
When talking about Lady Hera, Demps slightly beckoned with his finger so that Han Dong would understand the meaning behind it.
