If you open the world map.

You will find that no matter how small a country is, it is composed of many islands of different sizes.

Especially the map of the empire is like a broken mirror, filled with an uncountable number of islands, many of which are not even depicted.

In this situation.

For any longer route, the best tool is a boat.

Xinghai Academy is located at the junction of the three empires, and its trial location is also nearby.

If Ellie wanted to go there, she would either have to convert into a merchant ship multiple times, or take a shuttle boat dedicated to Xinghai Academy.

The former will consume a lot of time and is not very safe.

Although the latter can save time and ensure safety, it must start on time.

The shuttle boat closest to Ellie's location will dock ten days later.

To be on the safe side.

After Vladimir told these things, Ellie agreed with him to set off in seven days.

Seven days are here in the blink of an eye.

In the past seven days, Ellie has become the most talked-about celebrity on the island, and has also received overtures from a large number of nobles in the principality.

As a reward for the champion of the trial, several rooms of the small manor were filled with gifts from them.

The reason why it attracts so much attention.

The main reason is the trial quota of Xinghai Academy.

Although having a quota does not mean that you can enroll, in the entire principality this year, except for Ellie, there are only two people who have obtained trial quotas, so you can imagine how precious it is.

on the other hand.

Jiang Ren, who was stranded next to Ellie, used her to challenge many second-stage professionals on the island.

Since lives cannot be harmed, the feedback received from winning is much reduced.

But little things add up, and nearly half of his injuries have recovered.

It is also because of this that Ellie left a huge reputation among the second-stage professionals.

——A ferocious and vicious predator!

From this name, we can see how deep their resentment towards Ellie's constant challenge is.

Early on the eighth day.

Farewelled by their parents and tutors from the college, Ellie and Jiang Ren followed Vladimir to a passing merchant ship.

The merchant ship set off and gradually moved away.

Ellie looked at the island getting farther and farther away, and her mood gradually became a little low.

"First time leaving the island?"

Vladimir came to the side and said with a smile.

Ellie nodded slightly: "First time..."

The conversation between the two attracted the attention of many people accompanying the merchant ship, but the target of more attention was Jiang Ren, who was standing quietly next to him.

Professionals are actually very rare.

In a huge population base, there may not be even one person among thousands of people.

And summoned beasts like Jiang Ren are naturally even rarer.

"No vision, no taste, no touch."

Jiang Ren supported the railing at the edge with both hands and looked at the scenery on the sea casually.

Once you stop fighting, the shortcomings of being a skeleton will begin to magnify, and your life will suddenly become much less interesting.

"The entrance exam... I hope it can start soon."

Jiang Ren glanced at Vladimir who was chatting happily with Ellie next to him, looking forward to arriving at the trial site as soon as possible and then starting the entrance trial.

"Since they are top talents from all over the world, it will definitely be a lot more interesting."

Thinking of this, Jiang Ren looked at his attribute panel.

[Name: Jiang Ren]

[Race: Skeleton]

[Level: Undead Warrior (3%)]

[Talent: Beast Intuition (Unknown), Duel by Name (Orange), Unarmed King (Purple), Fight and Death (Blue)]

[Special: storage space]

"According to the current progress, the fourth level has a long way to go."

Jiang Renxin sighed and secretly made up his mind.

No matter how slow the progress is, as long as there is still the possibility of improvement, he will not consider returning to the abyss before the fourth stage.

After a day and night of traveling.

The merchant ship finally arrived at Vladimir's destination on the evening of the next day.

A small island surrounded by green trees.

After putting down two people and one skeleton, the merchant ship moved away from the island in the dusk.

Just when Jiang Ren was thinking about where to sleep tonight, he soon discovered the magical power of the summoner.

Vladimir raised his hand and summoned a group of second-stage monsters.

This group of monsters seems to belong to the same race. They are all tall, muscular non-combat humanoid monsters.

After these monsters came out, they quickly divided into two camps.

Most began to cut down trees and build wooden houses to solve the sleeping problem.

A small number of people went deep into the green forest to hunt animals on the island and solve the problem of dinner.

During this process.

Vladimir, who received much attention from Jiang Ren, also had some problems of his own.

Originally, my body looked healthy along the way.

After arriving at this island, I couldn't stop coughing as if I was suffering from a serious illness, and occasionally I could see some blood streaks on the palms I used to cover my mouth.

Under Ellie's questioning, Vladimir excused himself by citing the sequelae of an injury he suffered when he was young.

Although Jiang Ren had doubts, he didn't show it.

Enjoyable barbecue dinner.

The cabins used for temporary accommodation have also been built.

Not one room, but two.

"Summoner is convenient."

Jiang Ren looked at the neat wooden house in front of him and felt a little emotional.

I'm afraid that if the other two professions come here, they will have to sleep in the open air for such a short time. Even if they are lucky, they will at most stay in a cave full of dust and cobwebs.

If you want to be as cool as a summoner, you have to bring a bunch of servants.

"Have a good rest. Tomorrow afternoon, the shuttle boat sent by the college will arrive at the island. Before that, try to keep your spirits up as much as possible."

Vladimir left a quilt and sheets for Ellie and entered another cabin dozens of meters away.

Ellie, whose sleep quality was poor last night, happily closed the door and went to bed.

After whispering a few words with Jiang Ren, he quickly fell asleep in a stable environment.

Seeing her sleeping, the soul fire in Jiang Ren's mind shook slightly.

Soul fire is different from ordinary flames. It will not emit any light source unless the owner does not want it, and can blend perfectly with the darkness.

"It's time to get down to business."

Jiang Ren opened the door quietly, closed it behind his back after going out, and looked towards the small wooden house where Vladimir lived not far away.

The moonlight was mostly blocked by dark clouds.

In the dark night, only a vague outline of the two wooden houses could be seen.

Although the darkness gradually deepened, Vladimir not only did not fall asleep, but became excited.

In the dim candlelight.

He was sitting at the small wooden table beside the bed, looking at the things on the table.

Those are two notebooks that have been opened.
