Chapter 144: Wishes
Due to rib damage.
The squad insisted on delivering Han Dong personally to the Mysticism Faculty building.
A special carriage was rented to direct the Dark Moon Forest.
When shrouded under the dark moon, Sophia's holy light attribute was immediately suppressed, while also attracting the attention of a large number of 'forest dwellers'.
It could be clearly seen through the carriage windows.
In the middle of the dark forest, a pair of eyes of different sizes were staring at the carriage, scaring Sophia into staying close to Cass.
The eyes were about to reveal themselves when these native inhabitants of the forest heard something.
Ga~Ga~Ga!
A flock of crows flew to a halt on the branches on either side of the road, and the cawing of the crows immediately caused the dangerous inhabitants to retreat to their nests, not daring to think anything of the wagon.
After things subsided, Cass suddenly remembered something.
"Your Department of Mysteries is really 'dangerous', right! Brother Valen, you should be attending the next [Knight Training], right?"
"Knight training? Never heard of it."
"It's no wonder, you've just entered the Knight Academy, there are many things that Mr. Black and White should not have told you yet.
The [Knight Training] school holds a special training every other semester, and not everyone can participate.
Only the best from each faculty can participate after passing the series of benchmark tests before the training, and undergo a week of hellish training.
I was able to face off against the boss's head on this time because I attended and passed the last round of training, it gives me a headache just thinking about it. If you really want to go, make sure you train well in advance."
"Well, I'll ask Mr. Black and White when I get back, feel free to contact me if you need anything."
(ten minutes later)
[Stargazing Room]
On the warm animal skin sofa, Han Dong is already sitting here, holding a glass of Mr. Black and White's personal concoction "Star Fallen Crow" - a cocktail with floating dots of light on the surface and black on the bottom.
The moment you drink it, you are full of energy.
Full of energy, the injuries in his body were actually recovering slowly.
"Do you know how much the ingredients cost for this drink?"
"Um, 100?"
"2,000 copper coins, but the most important thing is still the skill of making it."
This statement made Han Dong, who had just finished his cocktail, want to spit out the drink and take it out to sell it for a few thousand copper coins.
He had to find a way to solve the injury problem himself.
"This is considered a small reward given after you cleared the event of four-star difficulty, you're progressing too quickly, and there are advantages and disadvantages.
Although you grew into a four-star Mystic Apprentice in a short period of time, your own foundation isn't up to par.
The fate points only allow your 'room for growth' to expand, and your true strength needs to be enhanced through study, cultivation, and experience.
If you leave aside your 'contamination ability', your true strength is probably just a little bit stronger than two stars."
Han Dong himself admitted to such a statement.
If he didn't use his shelter, small magic eye, and tentacle abilities and relied closely on some plague abilities, his strength was ordinary.
Mr. Black and White compared three fingers.
"For three months, I hope you will be able to leapfrog and refine your basic Mysticism Studies. Reach what a four-star mystic apprentice should be.
After that, I will sign you up for the next [Knight Training].
Of course, you'll have to pass the assembly entry test yourself."
I didn't expect that Mr. Black and White, who had just listened to Cass talk about the Training Gathering outside, would talk about it here.
"Knight Training, what form will it probably take?"
"It will be led by the Knights in a training camp no more than five kilometers outside the city walls.
Only good trainee knights can participate, and it will be of great help in improving your casting skills."
"Outside the city walls, outside!?"
"Five kilometers is nothing, and the 'big things' usually don't want to get close due to the walls.
Only some 'small things' will try to forage near the walls.
Plus, with the Knights leading you, as long as you follow orders, the chances of accidental death are low."
"Hmm."
"Anyway, three months!
You have to reach the standard expected of a four-star Mystic Apprentice, I'll personally test you then. If you don't reach the standard, you won't have to participate in the [Knight Training]."
"Understood!"
Han Dong was well aware of Mr. Black and White's good intentions, with the aid of the "Little Magic Eye" and Han Dong's own learning ability, he would definitely be able to 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, a wish, you think?"
Han Dong nodded evenly, using the spare pen and paper to write out a string of English and handed it to Mr. Black and White.
"This thing, I'll look it up."
Mr. Black and White seemed to be searching the general database of the Holy City through a jet-black special wind-up device in his hand.
"No, the entire Holy City doesn't have what you're looking for, this kind of disposable item that belongs exclusively in the Destiny Space, there are usually very few knights willing to turn it in."
Han Dong looked helpless, this was a wish he had thought of back a week ago when he was training for the Plague, After the dangerous experience of "The Joker Returns (Table Chapter)", he was even more determined to do so.
Moreover, Han Dong had found it on the surface of the 'Dyson Ball', which required 300 points to exchange for a vial.
"I wonder if Mr. Black and White can let me go to the Destiny Space once, all by myself."
"Hm!?"
After hearing this wish from Han Dong, Mr. Black and White was slightly stunned.
Han Dong was perfectly capable of asking him for an excellent piece of equipment, or a high-level Mysticism book, or a large sum of money.
And Han Dong's wish was odd.
The things written out on the note were also weird.
Without this disposable item, Han Dong actually wanted to borrow such a large opportunity to go to the Destiny Space once more.
Mr. Black and White explained a little: "After becoming a trainee knight, the Destiny Space has a cooldown for a period of [one year].
If you enter the Destiny Space during the cooldown period, the benchmark difficulty will not be raised and you will be rewarded with relevant items, but you will not be able to obtain the crucial "Fate Points."
All of this information, Han Dong had found out from Cass on his way back.
Continuously entering the Destiny Space was 'unreasonable' and 'not allowed'.
Moreover, even if the cooldown ended.
The Holy City also forbade entering the Destiny Space as an individual unit, the mortality rate of entering the Destiny Space alone was too high and couldn't cultivate 'team chivalry'.
In a situation where the entire Holy City didn't have anything Han Dong needed, and Han Dong happened to have obtained a 'Right' card.
Only then did Han Dong make such a decision.
This 'demand item' was very important to Han Dong.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
"When you're ready, come directly to 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 written on the paper by Han Dong.
"Sort of."
With that, the chat with Mr. Black and White came to an end for the time being.
"Mr. Black and White, I'm going down to rest first."
Just as Han Dong had just gotten up.
Knock, knock, knock!
There was a knock on the door of the observatory.
The banging was tremendous and not at all polite.
