To the east of Falorland, in the ancient Norkman Empire, the orthodox [Knight] profession has reached the fourth level, and the domain has taken shape, and is called the Knights of the Round Table.
Keisha is a Knight of the Round Table, to be precise, a Knight of the Round Table.
Artoria knew this, and although she was a little surprised, she didn't find it particularly strange.
Because the meaning of this "round table" was completely different from what she understood. It simply referred to the rank of knight-like extraordinary beings.
Just like the [Paladin] profession has reached the fourth level, it is also called the "Templar Knight" in the St. Joan Empire. These are informal and strict names, but they are also widely spread.
But she didn't expect that the name "Knights of the Round Table" in the main world came from the secret realm, and was even related to the legend of King Arthur, rather than just a coincidence.
In the living room, the lights are brightly lit.
Artoria slowly put down the Sun King's notes in her hand, and said seriously to Ren on the sofa beside her:
"In other words, this world may have some cultural ideas, even items and creatures from other worlds."
In the main world, some secret realms are formed by fallen world fragments, and the fragments come from other worlds. It is not difficult to draw this conclusion.
Moreover, the legend of King Arthur mentioned by the Sun King may not refer to her, but may be the King Arthur of other worlds.
"This is natural, such as the first secret realm mentioned by the Sun King, those people with yellow skin and black hair, Confucian and Taoist culture... This is obviously a fragment of the world from an ancient Eastern civilization."
Ren was sitting on the sofa, his voice calm.
He has long been aware of the strangeness of the main world.
For example, the traditional [Ranger] profession, with its green shirt and sword, looks very much like an Oriental knight, the women's cheongsam of Bohemia, the bronze wine bottles of the Nokman Empire, and even he has seen steamed buns, fried dough sticks, etc. in Juhami City."
"Special snacks", these are all evidence.
Although these things are not mainstream, they still have influence.
Ren looked at Artoria with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice:
"Those world fragments, that is, the secret realm, most likely fell from the abyss of the sky mentioned in the notes. Girl, do you know what that means?"
King Daimao began to think deeply, and the answer was actually not difficult to guess.
This means that the main world does not exist in isolation. The Abyss of Heaven mentioned in the Sun King's notes is most likely a passage connecting other worlds.
This is actually not good news, it means variables, and no one knows what is happening on the other side of the abyss.
The most dangerous thing is that according to the Sun King, during every wave period, the Abyss of the Sky will open...
Knowing that the water in the main world was very deep, Artoria also felt a sense of urgency in her heart and made up her mind:
"Ren, I have to go to school tomorrow to study, and you asked me to participate in the selection of saints of the Church of Light. I agree!"
She knew why he said this, it was just to urge him.
In the past few days, Ren had been urging her to join the Church of Light. He hoped that she could break into the church and become stronger quickly, while at the same time consulting the treasured information so that she could have a deeper understanding of the secrets of this world.
"Okay, today the board of directors of Melova University has given me a reply, and I will take you to enroll tomorrow."
Renn showed a satisfied smile upon seeing this.
King Daimao was not interested in the church before. He wanted to put some pressure on her so that she could make up her mind as soon as possible and make preparations early.
This is not an alarmist statement. According to some intelligence, a demon is planning to awaken the dark monarch who has been sleeping for a long time.
In this case, you need to speed up the pace of conquering the main world.
He joined the Demon Hunter Association in the Kingdom of Faloran. Kesha was the princess of the Nokman Empire. Then King Da Mao went to the St. Joan Empire to join the Church of Light.
Everyone spread out and used multiple channels to expand the influence of their favored people as much as possible.
While becoming stronger, you also explore the secrets of the main world.
In this way, except for the Steam Alliance in the far west and the Natural School, which has a very high threshold and is difficult for outsiders to join, other major forces and countries have their people.
[It is detected that the conditions are mature and the main task is released.]
The system's beep sounded in the minds of Ren and Artoria at the same time, causing their expressions to change slightly.
[Main mission 1, at the top of the wave, before the day of change, kill at least one dark monarch. 】
[Main mission two, when the world is promoted, pass through the abyss of the sky and go to other worlds by your own strength. 】
[Tip: After the main world has attracted and swallowed up many world fragments, it has reached the promotion standard. The main world will start to be promoted within ten years. Regardless of success or failure, its position will shift. 】
[Warning: If you fail the main mission, you will be responsible for the consequences!]
There was deathly silence in the living room.
Ren and Artoria looked at each other, and they could see a trace of shock in each other's eyes.
In ten years, at most only ten years, they must have the power to kill the Dark Lord and go to other worlds through the mysterious abyss of the sky.
Time is too tight.
"Girl, we have no choice now, we must act as soon as possible." Renn sighed, and also felt a sense of urgency.
Not to mention the difficulty of killing the Dark Lord, he had been in the main world for half a year. He didn't even know where the Canglan Mountains and the Abyss of Heaven mentioned in the Sun Lord's notes were, and he had never explored any of the secret realms.
"I understand." King Daimao nodded slightly.
Neither of them mentioned what would happen if the mission failed. The system only said that there would be consequences at your own risk, but the bloody text was so dazzling.
Once the main mission fails, they will definitely not end well.
………
Northern suburbs of the city, Melova University.
In the winter morning, the warm sunlight passes through the shade of the trees and casts mottled light spots on the grass.
The kingdom has a pleasant climate and is like spring all year round.
The spongy lawn was green, and the fragrance of grass and flowers lingered on the tip of his nose. Ren narrowed his eyes in contentment and walked around the campus with Artoria.
Melova University was built in the early fifth century and has a history of nearly a thousand years. The main campus is located in the picturesque northern suburbs of the city. It is a public school managed by the kingdom.
But in this era, most people cannot afford to go to school.
Although it is a public school, most of the students are the children of nobles, wealthy businessmen or extraordinary people, and there are very few commoners.
"Girl, how does it feel to be a female college student?"
Ren held a grass stem in his mouth and looked at the rockery pool, hedges, shrubs and various buildings on campus.
"It feels a bit strange." Artoria glanced at the young man who was full of youthful vigor. "I used to study in my dreams at night without any classmates."
Just now, Renn took her to the vice-principal's office in the teaching building and successfully completed the admission procedures.
She has officially become a student at Melova University, and she is also a student in the very precious professional class.
It is difficult for ordinary people to become a transfer student, let alone learn the basic knowledge and skills of a certain extraordinary profession, but this is not a problem for Sir Ackerman.
With Ren's strength and connections, as well as his money-making ability, it is not difficult for Daimao Wang to take theoretical knowledge classes.
The two of them were walking in this historic school and were very eye-catching.
Renn is just pretty handsome, but King Da Mao is really a natural beauty.
Green eyes, golden sand-like hair, small and delicate facial features, skin as fair and delicate as milk, and a figure that perfectly matches the golden ratio... I don’t know how many male students frequently cast their eyes on King Da Mao along the way.
Someone came up to strike up a conversation.
"Female college student, come on." Another boy in heat was sent away. A smile of unknown meaning appeared on Ren's face, and he looked at King Da Mao, "Maybe you will become the campus beauty."
School beauty?
Arturia smiled slightly after hearing this, carrying a pink schoolbag bought by Ren, and walked towards the dormitory nearby.
"Stop, young man, you can't go in!"
In front of the girls' dormitory, a middle-aged woman wearing a floral skirt and a slightly bloated figure glared at Ren and stopped him with her hand, as if to guard against wolves.
Ren smiled coquettishly, shook the suitcase in his hand, and explained to the dormitory aunt: "Auntie, I can help my cousin take the luggage in, can you be accommodating?"
"Haha, young man, do you have anything fresh to say? We're already in the sixth century, and this kind of excuse has long since fallen into disuse!"
The aunt's eyes were very contemptuous, as if she had seen through everything, and she stopped Ren and refused to let him go no matter what.
King Da Mao smiled when he saw this, while Ren was very speechless and felt a little regretful, so he had to give her the luggage.
"Just wait for me here for a while."
It was rare to see him deflated. The corners of Da Mao Wang's mouth slightly raised, he reached out to take the suitcase and walked into the girls' dormitory.
This dormitory building occupies a large area. Female dormitory students usually share two rooms. There are two single rooms, a bathroom, and a small common living room.
Da Mao Wang took the collar's key and entered Room 404 on the 4th floor. It was clean and tidy, the pink decoration looked very warm, and there was a pot of green radish on the table.
It was almost time for class at this time, and she didn't see her roommate for the time being. After putting her luggage away, she locked the door.
He went downstairs to meet Ren, and the two of them continued to walk around the campus.
Along the way, we walked around and visited various teaching buildings, the Central Heroes Square, the Sunshine Sports Hall, the Four Seasons Botanical Garden, the Ancient City Museum and other various building facilities.
"Tsk, this school is very good. It feels much better than Bushen University. The difference between a 985 school and an ordinary second-tier school."
Renn sighed, this place is indeed one of the two highest universities as famous as the Wisteria University in the capital of Faroland.
"What is a 985 college?" Female college student Da Mao Wang blinked her emerald eyes and asked slightly curiously.
"Ahem, it's nothing, let's go have lunch."
Near noon, Renn took the girl to a restaurant.
The restaurant is not only clean and tidy, but the food is also quite good.
It serves fried chicken wings, pork chops, beef, fruit salad, mashed potatoes, white bread, meat waffles, butter-baked lobster and other delicacies.
"Ren, you are right, this school is really good and the teaching quality is high." King Da Mao had a happy expression on his face.
Renn: “…”
Is there any necessary connection between good food and high teaching quality?
The happy girl ignored the surprise of others and packed a full lunch, including four dishes and one soup. The portion was almost twice as much as Ren's, which left him speechless.
After lunch, the two came to the library.
It is more like a palace than a library. The stone walls are covered with vines, and two simple and lifelike sculptures are placed in front of the thick pillars.
One is the stone statue of William the Conqueror, and the other is the sculpture of the famous "Magic Sage" Annen Verges Maro, the elder of the Natural School.
These two are both famous figures in the Fifth Age.
The library is quiet and solemn, with rows of bookshelves exuding the fragrance of ink. The first floor contains books on humanities and social sciences, while the second floor contains works on natural sciences.
The third floor is not open to the general public. Only students and tutors from the school's two professional classes are eligible to enter.
If you are an outsider, you need to apply and have at least a third-level expert level if you want to enter.
Renne had already applied for qualifications and entered the library on the third floor with King Da Mao directly.
On the third floor, there are not only many "banned books" that ordinary people cannot access, but also a separate reading room where you can even rest and order food. However, you need to pay a fee to use it, which is expensive.
A certain reading room.
King Da Mao carefully flipped through a copy of "Steam Revolution", and beside it were "A Hundred Years of Holy War", "Love for Farrowland", "Introduction to Extraordinary Professionals" and other banned books, which were piled higher than her head.
As expected, in the next one or two months, she will study hard in a semi-closed setting at Melova University.
After coming out, Ren and I will travel to various places.
Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is the best way to grow.
Half an hour later, Renn pushed in through the door with a few books in his arms, then locked the door and threw the books on the table:
"Girl, I've found everything. I'll give you these books."
King Da Mao rubbed his sore eyelids and looked at the three books on the table, one called "Divine Grace", one called "Teachings", and one called "Study of Early Religions and Beliefs".
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Ren, do you want to read these books too?"
The girl put her hands on the wooden table with a listless expression.
Seeing her look like a salted fish, Renn couldn't help but laugh:
"It's not just reading. It's best to memorize the book "Divine Grace" backwards and forwards. The "Teachings" needs to be kept in mind. As for the other book, it also needs to be read thoroughly."
"Ah, are the requirements so strict?" The girl's little head lay weakly on the table, a little collapsed.
She had never studied so hard in her life, and she felt more tired than dealing with government affairs and marching to war.
"Of course, girl, you want to become a saint of the church. By analogy, "Divine Grace" is like the Christian Bible, and "Teachings" is the "City of God". Do you think it is important?"
"Ren, even if I read these things well, will I definitely be able to become a saint?" King Da Mao looked at him with bright eyes.
Renn shook his head and said calmly: "Not necessarily, your chance of becoming a saint is not very good."
"Then if you ask me to recite these, isn't it a waste of time?" The girl stood up immediately and looked at him with a somewhat unkind look.
"No, before that, let me ask you a question. The Light Church is so powerful. Isn't it impossible to choose a saint from within the church? Do you have to choose one from the outside?"
Artoria was stunned for a moment and began to think deeply.
This time, for the first time, the Church of Light wants to select a saint from the outside world. This matter has caused a lot of fuss recently, second only to Carlos, the gun ghost, who entered the holy realm.
But if you think about it carefully, you will find that this matter is very strange.
The girl couldn't help frowning and asked aloud:
"It's not difficult to choose a saint, but what does it mean to be a church member?"
"The purpose of a religion is nothing more than faith and influence. Selecting saints from the outside world is most likely just a show, no different from marketing."
Ren shrugged and expressed his guess.
He feels that every time there is a war, it is a good time for the Light Church to spread its teachings and gain faith.
As soon as the people from the Steam Alliance heard about where the war was going on, they were like sharks that smelled blood, and they joined in to sell arms. However, these two organizations also called themselves "Justice Order"... haha.
"But aren't they afraid of risks? What if the chosen saint is a spy and a chess piece planted by other forces?" King Da Mao asked with a frown.
"There are several rounds of selection and screening. The rules are not decided by the magicians. As for spies? In the end, wouldn't it be enough to choose a pre-arranged agent from the church, or an actor within the church to be the saint?"
Can you still play like this?
The girl's eyes widened, this was too dirty, and then she became a little angry:
"Then what's the point of me participating in the selection? If your guess is true, my hope of becoming a saint is slim, right?"
"Haha, I didn't say you must become a saint. People in the church are not interested in drinking. Our purpose is the same. Believe me, I am a first-rate director."
Renn smiled like an old man. Wasn't he clearly arranged for Marcello to be the one who tricked him in the first place, and he left peacefully in the end?
His smile was very bright, but King Da Mao felt a little strange for some reason. Then Ren lowered his voice and whispered something in her ear.
Artoria's expression became very strange: "So, I still have to read and recite these books?"
Ren grinned, reached out and opened the gold-rimmed cover of "God's Grace", and soon his expression became solemn and solemn, and he chanted loudly:
"The Lord created the world, and the Lord controls everything! What the Lord said to destroy will not exist!
The Lord created the world, and the Lord controls everything! Whatever the Lord says will last forever will be immortal!"
His pious posture and extremely fanatical tone were like being possessed by a senior magician, which made the girl feel dazed for a while.
After a pause, Master Ren said in the same tone as the French Marshal:
"My holy virgin, start being a magician from today! In two months, I hope you will act more professionally than me!"
