Chapter 45: Strange Sounds in the Dark Moon Forest

Han Dong scrutinized the incoming female student carefully.

Dirty and utilizing the black hair coiled together in a bun, the

Gold nose ring.

Ivory earrings.

The colorful stone bracelets.

As well as a woolen wrapped cloth costume.

It was like a little witch doctor over in the Middle East, and in both look and appearance, she looked more like a mystic apprentice than Han Dong.

In age, she should be about the same as Nicholas, around nineteen years old.

The girl stared at the metal box held in Han Dong's hand, looking terrified.

"Ah! You've already chosen? What to do... it feels like what you've chosen is dangerous. There's a strange smell emanating from all around the iron box, can you show it to me?"

"Hmm."

This little sister was frightened after seeing what was inside the iron box.

What was stored within the iron box was not an 'artifact', but a pile of uncomfortable things... a large amount of dried skin, special skin, and the layer of skin that covered the eyes.

It was precisely for this reason that Han Dong had chosen to bring the entire iron box with him.

The little Middle Eastern girl kept biting her nails, tense and scared.

"This... this could kill someone.

Why did you pick one of these? Monsters with a penchant for collecting quirks are more difficult to deal with and more paranoid than the average evil creature.

It's all your fault, we had a hard time passing through the Destiny Space and will be able to live a good life in the Knight Academy."

Han Dong didn't care at all about this little sister's attitude and comments.

Choosing the Iron Box was a decision Han Dong had made after thinking about it, and with an impatient face, he said.

"Well? It's my choice, what does it have to do with you...why don't you just go ahead to the cabin, pick another item, and pass the test yourself?"

Having been spoken to so harshly by Han Dong, the little sister in front of him seemed to realize her problem and lowered her head, even hinting at a feeling that she was about to burst into tears.

"That... the internal faculty test is allowed for teams and doesn't increase the difficulty.

My sense of direction has been poor since I was a child, and I've often gotten lost in the Holy City and couldn't replace my way home... It took me days just to replace the place, and I definitely couldn't get out on my own.

So... I guess..."

The main point of Han Dong's concern was not the girls' roadkill problem, but the grouping problem he hadn't heard of.

"You said that teaming up is allowed and doesn't increase the difficulty?"

"Well! That's what I asked from that administrator when I entered the school.

So? My initial plan was to arrive at the cabin first, then wait until the other trainee knights arrived, then make a test selection and form a team to clear it... I didn't expect to get lost again, and then I met you here."

Teaming up doesn't add to the difficulty.

The risk is reduced by forming an extra person without knowing what dangers you'll face next.

Of course,... Han Dong also had to consider the possible dangers of the young girl herself.

This test will definitely be conducted under the surveillance of the relevant teachers of the Mysticism Department, so it would be best if I don't release Miss Chen Li to help...so as not to leak information about the prison. However, the ghoul arm is usable.

The things in the iron box are indeed evil, and once I can clear the customs with such evil things, my evaluation will be much higher, which can be related to my future development and resource allocation.

This girl who suddenly broke out has quite a few doubts, but there is also a 'need' to bring her along.

If she really is a trainee knight of the same level, it's fine to make good connections in advance.''

Han Dong thought back to his campus life before he died, but he didn't even have a single friend as an associate professor... Every time he met up with other teachers in the academy, he only had a polite greeting.

Life was boring.

So much so that when Han Dong learned of the spread of cancer cells, he felt pity that he couldn't finish his project, and the rest of the world was nothing worthy of his attachment.

"Alright, temporary team up."

Since he was given the chance to be reborn, Han Dong gradually tried to change himself.

"Great!"

Han Dong suggested, "Let's start by introducing yourself, especially detailing the abilities you're currently good at."

Han Dong had the experience of teaming up with trainee knights and solving dangerous events together, and currently used it directly.

The little Middle Eastern girl said, "Yeah... I haven't introduced myself yet.

My name is Pasha Burkhart, I just passed the two-star difficulty Destiny Space a few days ago, and since I studied sorcery in the tribe for a while, I chose [Mysticism].

I haven't gone through a systematic study yet... so I only know some 'divination'."

"Divination?"

Han Dong understands what divination is.

It was also equivalent to divining what would happen in the future through foreign objects (usually specific objects, shells, cards, bamboo sticks, etc.) with a small amount of light.

"You only know divination, why do you still get lost?"

Pasha explained.

"Because I'm not particularly familiar with it yet, it causes me to have a very confused mind... especially after allocating Fate Points, my divination ability is enhanced and sometimes I can foresee some future images in advance, causing me to have a very poor sense of direction.

But don't worry, I'm still very useful!

I can foresee danger in advance."

Han Dong nodded and began to introduce himself, "Um... I'm Nicholas Valen. I have some fighting ability, but it's not very strong."

"A knight majoring in [Mysticism] is not supposed to be able to compare with that group of [Crusaders], and it's already good that you have some fighting ability... What I'm most worried about is that the two of us can only divine.

What are you capable of? Can I see?"

Under Pasha's question.

Only under Han Dong's right arm, there was some sort of green substance flowing from between the veins... Swish! The common nail stretched out sharply to about thirty centimeters in length, sharp and curved.

When the arm as a whole was about to swell and expand, Han Dong immediately stopped further changes.

"Wow! You're a mutated type of plague scholar!?"

" Hmm?" Han Dong didn't know much about such specialized terms yet.

"Hehe, I also read about it from a book... I heard that those who can master plague are among the most dangerous types of people in the mystical professions, while those who can perform 'morphological changes' are the most powerful attackers in the mystical professions.

I didn't expect you to possess both of these attributes at the same time, so powerful!"

"Hehe."

Han Dong wanted to say that it was just a ghoul arm, so where was the explanation.

But being mistaken for a mystic ability would save Han Dong from having to explain it.

As such, the two teamed up, with Han Dong carrying the metal box in his backpack, and walked through the Dark Moon Forest.

The crunching sound made by the squeezing of tree branches, the cawing of crows.

Or the sound of limbs snapping as some giant insect crawls through the forest.

These sounds, Han Dong and Pasha were used to.

But... there was also something uncomfortably strange in between these sounds.

As time passed, the sounds became clearer and clearer.

~Clack~ Clack!

The sound of some sort of metal scissors grew clearer from far and near, seemingly hiding behind the twisted dead tree at his side.
