Chapter 585: Chapter 585: The Tracker
A total of 193 graduates successfully joined the Thirteen Knight Orders in this year’s knight elections.
After the election, there will be no restrictions on the new knights who join. They can go to the Knight Headquarters at any ti to receive their basic knight equipnt and corresponding Knight’s Emblem.
The specific ti for joining and participating in formal training will be arranged by each knight regint.
The more strict Lionheart Knight Group and Hell Knight Corps only give the newcors three days of rest… The relatively relaxed Steam Knights and Doomsday Knight Brigade give newcors a week to a month of rest period to adjust their status.
In short, once you graduate successfully, the individual will only be managed by the corresponding knight regint.
It should be noted that the Secret Language Knight Order only recruited two graduates in this convention.
One is Valen Nicholas, who has attracted attention from the whole city and won the first place.
The other one, who ranked relatively late and whose combat power was not that strong, but seed to have a particularly good mory, was able to quickly draw a lot of formation symbols, a library graduate.
According to Captain Hugo, once Han Dong reports to the knight regint, there will be a lot of miscellaneous work for him.
Considering Han Dong’s special experience and performance in the election, there will be a lot of things to deal with after the election, so Han Dong was given a week’s rest.
Otherwise, Captain Hugo would grab Han Dong to report as soon as the convention ended and start a 996 bald head work mode.
…
The next day.
Knight Headquarters.
Han Dong is receiving the basic equipnt and badge of the formal knight here.
“This is your knight equipnt and badge, please keep it.”
The badge, naturally “magnifying glass and question mark” corresponding to the Secret Language Knight Order, is necessary as proof of identity for attending various special occasions, taking knight tasks, or going out of the city.
Regarding the knight’s equipnt.
Han Dong only received an [Archaeology Outfit] made from “Magic-patterned Leather”.
That is, a single-row leather coat with gray and white intervals, a pair of long trousers with good insulation, and a pair of high-top leather shoes that hardly make noise when walking, so as not to disturb others’ work in the knight regint.
The outerwear has a certain resistance to pollution, to avoid spiritual pollution when contacting unknown artifacts outside the city.
The main characteristic of this attire has the ‘ntal excitent’ traits.
Combined with a cup of coffee every day, it can allow office workers to work for ten hours without reducing efficiency.
Compared to the armor equipped by most knight regints, this happy overti outfit is really low key.
Although he hasn’t reported to the Secret Language Knight Order yet, Han Dong is already a Formal Knight.
Truth be told, Han Dong doesn’t reject the office work in the Secret Language Knight Order, especially after hearing from Captain Hugo about the things related to the Demon’s [Stone Slab].
Anything related to the ‘research’ of unknown things, Han Dong personally finds it very interesting.
Also, Han Dong had learned about Hugo’s background from Mr. Black White in advance and had seen Hugo’s thods in the convention.
This ‘weakest’ knight regint, which has been at the bottom of the comprehensive ratings for years, must have an unspeakable secret.
At the sa ti.
Mia also received the standard equipnt belonging to the [Doomsday Knight Brigade] from another reporting location.
A dark, close-fitting light armor.
It maintains the characteristics of the armor while highlighting Mia’s figure.
“Darling, let’s get out of town and go on honeymoon right away!”
Mia had already imagined all kinds of ‘wonderful’ scenes for the two of them and couldn’t help tightening her legs slightly as she held onto Han Dong’s arm.
“When is your knight regint’s formal training?”
“Heehee… Deputy Leader Archides gave
two weeks of rest ti and a semi-free learning style so that I could continue to stay in contact with the witch teacher.
So! I can stay with my darling all the ti.”
Mia had already changed into the dark light armor, and together with Han Dong, they took a special Raven Carriage to the city gate.
However, as the carriage moved into the civilian area, Han Dong sensed sothing and ordered the carriage to stop.
“What’s the matter?”
Mia was in a state of anxious tension, fearing that such a great opportunity would be spoiled by so unexpected event.
“Soone is following us…”
Upon hearing that soone dared to disturb their ‘honeymoon journey’, Mia pulled out her Demon Sword and was about to jump out of the carriage… but was promptly stopped by Han Dong.
“I think they have been following us since we left the Knight Headquarters; I’ll take a look…”
Han Dong’s intuition told him that the follower’s target was very clear; they were targeting him.
A carriage that seed ordinary, but in fact had a powerful steam system integrated into it, stopped by the roadside fifty ters away.
The carriage door was wide open.
It was a clear invitation for Han Dong to get in and talk.
“Mia, co with … Behave yourself. As soon as we finish dealing with this, we can leave the city, it won’t take long.”
“Oh…”
Mia put away her Demon Sword.
She didn’t know if it was because she was frequently embroiled in Han Dong’s troubles, but she had a feeling that this ‘honeymoon journey’ was going to be derailed again.
They stepped onto the carriage.
While the exterior looked like a common wooden carriage, the interior was filled with orderly tallic lines.
Also, there was the gear stamp of the Steam Knights marked on the back.
A middle-aged man, dressed in noble garb and wearing a wig, sat inside the carriage… Even with his noble wardrobe, his burly figure could not be concealed.
“Mr. Newton!”
The follower was Kongriff Newton, the vice-captain of the Steam Knights.
Having learned of this man’s identity, Mia imdiately lost her temper.
The witch, resentful of Mr. Black White, frequently ntioned when alone with her beloved disciple Mia, that ‘The Holy City would operate just as well without Mr. Black White’.
Because, there is more than one ‘Wise Man’ in the Holy City.
This man, who follows the Gold Master, manages all affairs of the Steam Knights and is also recognized as a Wise Man of the Holy City.
Though Mia’s chance of encountering this man was slim, the witch still warned her to be careful of him.
“Valen Nicholas… before you leave the city, on behalf of the Gold Master, I have a few matters to discuss with you.”
“Alright.”
“In this Knight Tournant, according to the plan of the Gold Master and , the first place was supposed to be won by Chalidu Guli so that we can promote the ‘Steam Technology Human Transformation’ throughout the various Knight Orders.
However, because of you, this plan had to be postponed.
Of course, it’s also because of you that we discovered so deficiencies in this technology.
The Gold Master has taken great interest in you, and asked
to collect information about you privately.
Unfortunately, I found sothing very interesting.”
Han Dong remained silent, just listening quietly.
“Starting from three years ago, you made several purchases of large amounts of construction and dicinal materials, with gaps between purchases ranging from one to three months.
Considering your personal characteristics, we speculate that you are constructing so sort of large-scale ‘biological laboratory’.
Such a large laboratory for biological experints could not possibly be constructed above the second level of the Holy City… it could only be located in the civilian area.
However, I did not find any record of your land use rights in the civilian area, and you seldom co in and out of the civilian area, and your family has also moved away from here.
Therefore, the Gold Master and I suspect that your lab is probably not within the city.”
