At the same time.
Just as Han Dong and Pasha teamed up and left the forest together.
If one were to look at the entire Dark Moon Forest from a high altitude … … Han Dong and Pasha were just two small dots in the vast forest, moving around in a small area of the Dark Moon Forest.
Overlooking the Dark Moon Forest.
There were as many as 40 "wooden houses" like this. Inside, there were all kinds of weird accessories and props that corresponded to different demons and ghosts for the freshmen test.
That's right.
This year's Holy City Sacrificial Ceremony had a total of 32,000 participants.
The [Festival Square] where Han Dong was at was just the southern part of the Holy City where participants gathered.
And there were only 400 freshmen who came out of the Destiny Realm alive and were given the title of "Trainee Knight" … … [Crusader] and [Library] were popular professions.
About two hundred people chose these two major professions.
[Machinery] was second, with about 80 people choosing it.
[Control] was second to last, with about 70 people choosing it.
[Occultism] was last, which was the case every year. This year, there were 8 more people choosing it than last year, with a total of 40 people choosing it.
Most of the students who went to the school to sign up at different times would take the relevant pre-school test in the building of the school or the affiliated building.
[Crusader] was very simple. First, in front of various instruments, they completed the basic test of strength, speed, reaction, etc.
Then, they only needed to obtain the permission of a mentor in the use of weapons such as "swordsmanship", "boxing", "shield", or "giant axe", etc.
Trainee Knights who majored in [Library] had to go through two procedures. First, they had to go through a "magic detector" to test their magic affinity and inclination.
Then, they needed to learn the most basic main magic and successfully cast it within three days.
[Machinery] School.
For students who already had a certain level of achievement in crafting, they were exempted from the test.
Other students could analyze the structure of precision machinery and draw it on the spot, or they could choose to shoot accurately with a flintlock.
Students who majored in [Control] were required to control ordinary creatures (non-magical creatures) raised in the school's internal farm. As long as they could control an ordinary creature within 30 minutes, there was no danger at all.
Only [Occultism] was different.
Only a few students would take standardized and non-dangerous tests in the Occultism Building.
Any student who was slightly 'special' would be placed in the Dark Moon Forest to undergo a certain degree of danger.
This was also the reason why some of the middle-to-high-yield young people who knew the inside story did not choose [Mysticism].
There was no need to risk the title of 'novice knight'.
Just as he was about to enter the academy and undergo systematic and standardized learning to develop his potential, it was not worth it to die on the way to school … Therefore, mysticism studies became the most neglected department.
The establishment of such an entrance test was the request of the highest management of the mysterious academy.
The reason why he set up such a dangerous and frightening test was to let the new apprentice knights understand that once they stepped on the path of [Mysticism], their future would be filled with endless unknown and fear.
He had to be mentally prepared in advance.
…
Crack, crack ~
The strange sound of scissors made Han Dong's heart tighten.
It was similar to the feeling of being targeted by an evil spirit in the movie "Bewitched" … It made his hair stand on end.
Han Dong abruptly turned around and looked at the withered tree behind him.
Unexpectedly, the sound of the scissors quickly changed and went to another direction.
As Han Dong searched for the sound, the sound of scissors would always change instantly.
As he could not lock onto the target, this made Han Dong uncertain … Once he was ambushed, it would be really troublesome.
"Han Dong, do you want me to come out and help … It's a little strange that something is targeting you." Chen Li's voice echoed in his mind.
"You can't come out yet. This is a test in the academy. I have to solve it myself. Now, I don't have a valid reason to explain your existence … "
"What if your life is in danger?" Chen Li's words contained a very small amount of concern.
"You decide for yourself."
…
When the communication ended.
Han Dong immediately looked at Pasha Burhart, who had the ability to divine.
Hearing the strange sound of scissors, although she was afraid, she tried her best to remain calm and observe around.
"Didn't you say that you know how to divine? Can you find the target's location? "
"Yes … Yes. As long as you perform divination through the medium, you can always determine its direction. "
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"Because … Once you perform divination, the target will lock onto me …"
"If we can't determine the target's location, we might all die here … The medium, is it the thing in the iron box?"
"Yes."
Han Dong immediately opened the iron box, reached out, and picked up a piece of frosted dry eyelid and handed it to Pasha. "Lock onto the target's location. I'll think of a way."
"Al … Okay."
Pasha took out an old metal compass.
She placed the medium close to the compass and muttered something. A grayish-white energy flowed out from Pasha's palm, connecting the medium and the compass.
A simple ritual was completed.
This way, the needle would always point to the scissors monster hidden in the dark.
However, the needle did not point in a certain direction. Instead, it was spinning rapidly!
It was as if the target was moving around at an extremely fast speed.
"Impossible … The test's intensity can't be so high. If the movement speed is really that fast, we're no match for it! The needle is only limited to pointing to the target's position in the horizontal direction.
The only possibility is … the target is at the same vertical coordinate as us.
Be careful! "
Han Dong suddenly looked up, but there was nothing on the tree branch above his head.
There was only one possibility — underground.
Kacha! Kacha!
The monster seemed to have realized that its location had been exposed and stopped hiding!
A pair of scissors, flickering with silver light, extended from the soil …
It was indeed as Pasha Burhart had said.
Due to her directional divination, the monster's target was her.
Kacha! (The scissors opened and closed)
Grayish oil splashed onto the ground.
The sharp scissors actually severed the tendons around Pasha's ankle. Pasha screamed as her body fell backward.
Danger!
The moment the scissors severed the tendons, it immediately moved back … If Pasha fell like this, the back of her head would fall onto the sharp scissors.
A green ray of light shot out, pointing at the soil corresponding to the scissors.
The plague ignored the soil's obstruction and directly affected the monster hidden below.
A series of strange, muffled cries could be heard. The scissors retracted.
Pasha Burhart's life was thus saved.
The green ray of light was the plague energy shot out by Han Dong through the Weapon of Destiny.
"This test arranged by the Mystery Branch is real?! If I hadn't acted in time … this girl would have died, right? It wasn't easy for them to select a talent through the Realm of Destiny, and they're abandoning her just like that?! "
For a moment, Han Dong focused all his attention, entering a state of concentration when facing death.
