The third floor of the Holy City.
Only nobles had the basic right to live here, and these nobles were only ordinary residents of this floor.
The landmarks of the third floor were:
[Throne Room]
[Thirteen Knights Legion]
[Bell Tower]
[Church Headquarters]
[Noble Residential Area]
[Large Association Area] (Headquarters of the Authors Association, Alchemist Association, Steam Machine Association, and other large associations)
There were also some mysterious forbidden places.
The open area, low human traffic, and high overall quality meant that the third floor had wide and clean streets, various steampunk-style metal parks, and sound security measures.
Apprentice Knights like Han Dong could only enter the Destiny Realm if they wanted to enter the third floor … Under other circumstances, they were not allowed to enter the third floor.
In front of the entrance of the Maldini Family's mansion in the Noble Residential Area.
After helping Han Dong get rid of a few despicable maggots, Cass took a carriage to this place, which was also his' home '.
However, Cass rarely came back after embarking on the path of a Knight.
He would only come back once after he had achieved something great.
At the entrance of the front flower courtyard, a few maids dressed in black and white stood on both sides, welcoming the young master home.
A handsome middle-aged man was waiting at the entrance of the mansion.
This person was Cass's father, Viscount Alex Maldini, a rather famous noble in the Holy City … However, compared to Cass, this Viscount Alex didn't have strong muscles, but he had the unique aura of a scholar.
Alex had one son and three daughters.
His youngest son, Cass, had always been Viscount Alex's favorite.
"My brave and battle-ready son, your father is proud of your heroic deeds! I have already arranged for a banquet to be held for you tonight to celebrate your promotion to a four-star Apprentice Knight!
In addition, the Knight Academy has also specially sent you a letter. "
"Letter?"
Cass opened the letter, and it read:
Due to Cass' outstanding performance in the previous [Knight Training], as well as passing the four-star Destiny Event, the Knight Academy's decision was made.
Cass was allowed to participate in the next [Knight Training] as the 'Vanguard Leader' after comprehensive consideration by the Knight Academy.
This letter was very important.
There were many unspoken rules in the Knight Academy.
One of the important unspoken rules in the knight training was [Excellent Promotion] … Those who performed well in the previous training could continue to participate in the next training.
Once they passed the three training sessions, they would become the school's' top student '.
When the Talent Tree was formed, he would be able to choose to join any Knight Order and receive better treatment. His future would be limitless.
After Viscount Ares learned of this matter, he couldn't stop smiling. Tonight, he would invite all the aristocrats over and show off to them.
"Father, can the banquet be limited to our family and not be made public?"
"You have plans?"
"Yes … … It really wasn't easy to come out of the Destiny Realm alive this time. I want to treat my teammates who went through life and death situations to a meal.
Especially the mysterious apprentice who just joined the team. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand here and chat with father. "
"Mysterious apprentice … Alright! It was originally prepared for you. "
Ares immediately instructed his personal butler to inform everyone about this matter — to reduce the size of the banquet and increase the quality of the dishes and service.
Next, it was time for a private moment between father and son.
Viscount Ares quietly asked, "Speaking of which, have you and that little girl Sophia come to a conclusion? Your mother thinks that this marriage is very good, and you both have reached the appropriate age … … Being able to marry into the royal family is very meaningful for you, or for our family. "
Cass decisively refused, "I'm currently wholeheartedly focused on studying [Crusader]. I don't have any plans in this area … … Wait until I become a knight, then we'll talk about this matter."
Ares was also a very open-minded father. He didn't have any intention of forcing his son to marry.
"Alright, contact your friends … … I still have some matters to attend to today, so I have to make a trip to the [Church's Headquarters]."
"The Church's Headquarters?"
"Yes … … Since about ten days ago, I've been repeating a very strange dream every day.
Although there's nothing wrong with my body, I keep feeling uncomfortable. I plan to go to the Church to receive a holy baptism.
I reckon that it's because I accidentally got 'contaminated' when I was writing an article in the past, and it's the aftereffects of not being able to fully release the pressure … … Don't worry, I only need to go to the Church to get rid of it. "
"Yes."
Cass was still very concerned about these details.
After his father left, he immediately asked the butler about the situation.
The butler also said with a worried expression, "Master is a little strange. He's been sleepwalking for the past week … … Every time he sleepwalks, he'll go to the backyard and dump a deep hole in the ground before returning to his room to rest."
Cass vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
"Father, did he go to any special places or attend any gatherings this month?"
"I've been away from home three times. Two of them were to attend large gatherings among the nobles. The other time, I followed a group of author friends to the opera house on the second floor and watched a very long stage play."
"Opera house … … When father comes back, I'll ask him about the details."
"Yes, Young Master."
While Cass was doubtful, he also sent an invitation to the celebration party to his team members.
… …
[Stargazing Room]
Han Dong suddenly woke up on the bed!
"Hand … …"
Even though his consciousness was still in a muddled state, he immediately had a conditioned reflex and quickly looked at his right arm.
A thin and yellowed arm came into view.
The arm was exactly the same as before … … Of course, this was in the "Camouflage" mode. The real right arm could not be called a ghoul's arm.
Currently, Han Dong could feel the real qualitative change brought about by the G-virus in his arm.
Not only that, Han Dong's whole body was strengthened.
"Strength," "Reflex," "Regeneration," and other basic attributes were all improved to a certain extent.
Han Dong immediately got out of bed, jumped, punched, and ran in the spacious room!
An irrepressible smile hung on his face. Han Dong muttered,
"Finally … … I've finally gotten rid of the shackles of being an 'ordinary person'! If I go to 'The Clown's Resurrection (Form)' with my current body, I'll definitely be able to fight with the Clown for hundreds of rounds and take him down. "
The potential power in his body gave Han Dong great confidence.
Just as Han Dong was showing off his body's performance, the bedroom door opened. Mr. Black And White was standing at the door.
"Is this what you plan to do? Very good … … If you continue like this, you should be able to reach the level I expect in the remaining three months. "
Mr. Black And White gave a high evaluation of Han Dong's changes.
"It's all thanks to you that I got an important opportunity to go to the clock tower."
Mr. Black And White smiled and continued, "Your good friend should be looking for you. Remember to go."
"Good friend?"
Han Dong immediately reacted and checked the clockwork device.
He received a fax invitation from Cass.
"The Maldini family is hosting a banquet. Cass is really a noble … … Mr. Black And White, is there something wrong with the Cass family?"
Han Dong guessed that there might be something wrong with Mr. Black And White's initiative to bring up this matter.
"You'll know when you get there. After you're done with this, you can relax and go through three months of hard training. You can come to me if you need anything."
"Okay!"
