"How was it?"
When Kieran pushed the door open, Eiderburgh asked eagerly.
"Not bad."
Kieran answered and looked at Professor Smith.
Although the door was blocking his view, Kieran's Advance Rank Intuition allowed him to know what happened in the living room.
The professor who lived at the edge of E Block was much more mysterious than he thought.
Whether it was the man's research or his strength, everything told Kieran that much.
Professor Smith was still leaning on the sofa without moving under Kieran's gaze. He was holding the bottle of wine like a drunkard on the street.
It seemed like Professor Smith didn't care about Kieran's gaze.
Kieran kept his gaze.
Despite Professor Smith's extraordinary performance, his attitude said it all.
Given Kieran's character, he would never do something that would not bring him benefits.
Therefore, after nodding at Eiderburgh, Kieran walked out. However, before he left the living room, he couldn't help but glance at the room on the left of the living room corridor.
Although the room was filled with the aroma of fruits and vegetables, the smell of roasted meat was completely covered. A commoner wouldn't even be able to pick up the smell of grease, but in Kieran's nose, it got clearer.
Too bad he didn't know what kind of food it was.
The thought bloomed in Kieran's mind, and just when he wanted to walk out again, Smith, who was lying limply on the sofa, suddenly spoke.
"What do you smell?"
Smith sat up and placed his hands on his knees. He leaned his neck forward and tilted his head. His cloudy eyes were filled with a trace of scrutiny.
"2567, think carefully before you answer!"
Eiderburgh said in a hurry before Kieran could speak.
He knew very well that even though his friend said that Kieran was only so-so and not bad, deep down in his heart, he really admired the First Seat.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have spoken up now.
This was a chance!
It was an extremely good, heavenly opportunity!
He hoped Kieran could seize it!
"The smell of grease."
Kieran paused for a moment and answered indifferently.
"Not bad."
"I need an assistant."
"Come here and help me tomorrow."
Smith nodded and said.
"Not interested."
After saying that, Kieran turned around and walked out.
Eiderburgh looked at Kieran in shock.
He didn't understand why Kieran would give up such a good opportunity. Smith was also a little surprised, but he immediately laughed.
"Interesting kid."
Smith laughed as he twisted open the bottle of wine. After taking a few big gulps, he curled up on the sofa and started snoring.
Eiderburgh didn't try to persuade his friend anymore. He quickly caught up to Kieran who was waiting beside the car.
"Why didn't you agree?"
Eiderburgh asked angrily.
"Why should I agree?"
Kieran asked calmly.
Eiderburgh was stunned when he saw how calm Kieran was.
"Do you know how many opportunities you've given up that many people can't even dream of?
Eiderburgh took a deep breath and couldn't conceal his agitated tone.
"That's others, not me."
"What others want doesn't mean I want it too."
"I know what I want."
Kieran opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, leaning back and closing his eyes.
Eiderburgh was stunned for two to three seconds when he saw Kieran's reaction. He shook his head and sighed as he sat in the driver's seat.
Why did he keep running into freaks like this?
With doubts lingering in his heart, Eiderburgh started the car.
Under the night sky, the car's headlights lit up the road at the edge of E Block.
Unlike the bustling center of E Block, the edge of E Block was mostly forests and fields. Although there were asphalt roads, there weren't any street lights.
Kieran, who was leaning back in his seat, slowly opened his eyes. He saw the wooden house getting further away before he closed his eyes again.
No doubt, Smith had a huge secret on him.
If Smith didn't have that plan that he had been planning for a long time, he would have stayed.
As for two-pronged approach?
Kieran wasn't a person who would belittle himself.
Likewise, he wouldn't be arrogant either.
As the assistant of a professor, especially a weird one like Smith, if Smith intentionally tested him, it would be hard for Kieran to stay firm. Smith might even see through him.
Abandon the plan?
Kieran knew very well what kind of rewards it would bring him if his plan succeeded.
Exchanging a known great harvest for an unknown and uncertain harvest.
Kieran's vigilant character made him choose the former option.
…
The car stopped at E Block's dorm.
After Kieran got off the car, Eiderburgh rolled down the window and took out a paper bag that he had prepared.
"This is lunch for you, but it's dinner now. Meat buns and braised beef.
It's cold, but better than nothing. "
Eiderburgh said.
"Thank you."
Kieran thanked him politely after he received the paper bag.
"Not a bit of vigor, what a stubborn kid!"
Eiderburgh then turned the steering wheel and drove back to the cafeteria.
Kieran saw the car disappear into the night sky before he walked back to his dorm. When he sensed a familiar presence, Kieran curled his lips into a smile.
Then, he put away his smile and walked to his apartment as usual.
Garcia was waiting anxiously in front of Kieran's room. When he saw Kieran, his eyes shone brightly, but he held back his anxiety and greeted Kieran first.
"Good evening, 2567."
"Good evening."
Kieran replied politely. Unlike the politeness with Eiderburgh, this time, the politeness was more literal, with a sense of distance.
Kieran didn't say anything else after that, nor did he invite Garcia into his room. He looked at Garcia calmly.
Garcia's stiff face showed a sense of helplessness.
He really didn't want to deal with a person like Kieran.
It wasn't just because of Kieran's weird personality, it was also because Kieran was calculative.
However, once he thought about the Index of Eat, Garcia, who represented a certain professor, took a deep breath.
"We agree to your conditions."
But you must guarantee that we will capture Lude. "
Garcia said in a heavy tone.
Even though it was only half of the Proper Meal level food, the professor behind him still felt that it was difficult for him to provide another Proper Meal level food.
Therefore, Garcia must have a certain level of assurance.
It wasn't the professor's order, but it was something the professor was happy to see.
And his existence was to achieve such a thing.
"I can't guarantee that!
"Just like how I gave you the most accurate information before, but you still failed."
Lude is much more cunning and powerful than you think. "
Kieran shook his head and prepared to open the door.
"Wait!
We need at least more comprehensive information from Lude. "
Garcia knew once Kieran opened the door, it would mean the end of the conversation, and before he got what he wanted, he didn't want the conversation to end. He quickly took a step back and said, "This information is the content of this deal.
This information is the content of this deal.
After you finish the last deal with me, we'll talk about this one. "
Kieran mentioned the old topic again.
"The content of this deal?"
This time, the 4th year was a little surprised.
"Of course.
Otherwise, what makes you think this information is worth a Proper Meal class food? "
Kieran nodded.
When he saw Kieran nod, the 4th year instantly thought of more things.
Every single thought in his mind was unknowingly perfecting 'Lude'.
Following the perfecting of 'Lude', the 4th year's heart started to feel uneasy.
He thought of something bad.
If it was really like what he guessed …
"You can come to me after you've made up your mind."
Kieran interrupted Garcia's thoughts and prepared to open the door again.
"Let's trade now!"
The thought in Garcia's mind made him stop hesitating, so he said straightforwardly.
"I need to get my reward."
Kieran emphasized.
"No problem!
Please wait for a moment, I'll arrange it right away! "
Garcia then strode to the stairs.
Kieran looked at Garcia's back, took out his school badge and opened the door.
Everything was as he expected. The 4th year student wasn't just good at seizing the timing, he didn't hesitate either, especially when certain thoughts popped up in his heart that made him feel uneasy. He habitually solved the problem in a swift and decisive way.
This was the reason why Kieran chose Garcia and not Darwend, the middle-aged man.
Darwend was a little lacking in ability and the hesitation in his character made it hard for him to achieve great things, but it was also hard for him to make big mistakes.
The 4th year student might stand out easily and make great contributions, but at the same time, once he made a mistake, it would be a big mistake.
Ding!
The electric steamer in the dorm let out a clear chime.
The smell of meat buns and braised beef entered Kieran's nose when the cabinet door was opened. Kieran couldn't help but take a deep breath. The rich smell of the beef and the flour made him hungry, but what surprised Kieran the most was the gravy in the meat buns, it was extra delicious.
"Prawn meat and crab roe?"
Kieran savored the taste carefully, his face uncontrollably showing a smile.
5 meat buns and 1 kg of braised beef were devoured by Kieran in less than 10 minutes.
Kieran picked up the glass of water beside him and drained it in a single gulp.
"Too bad there's no soup.
Even if it's just egg soup, it would be perfect. "
Kieran muttered to himself before heading to the door.
He already heard Garcia's footsteps.
Of course, not just Garcia, there were five others.
Even though he didn't see the five of them, Kieran sensed a faint fierce aura from them. They might be weaker than Eiderburgh, but they were much stronger than Senile, a teacher.
It seemed like they were very meticulous in escorting a Proper Meal class food.
Regardless of time or place, there would always be people willing to risk their lives.
Not to mention it was a night in Theorate.
Kieran could clearly tell there were at least 20 people behind Garcia's group. If it wasn't for the strength of the escorts, they would have made a move already.
Before Garcia knocked on the door, Kieran opened it first.
Garcia wasn't surprised. The fourth-year student turned around and passed a sealed metal box to Kieran, leaving only a glass window on the top of the box.
"Proper Meal class food, the Golden Cake!"
Garcia said.
As a matter of fact, the moment Kieran took the sealed box and looked at the Proper Meal class food through the glass window, lines of words appeared before his eyes.
[Name: Golden Cake (Replica)]
[Type: Food]
[Rarity: I]
[Attack: None]
[Defense: None]
[Attribute: Golden Blessing (Incomplete)]
[Effect: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: During the golden era, the people loved the Golden Cake without a doubt. It wasn't just because of its taste, but also because of the benefits it brought. Although this Golden Cake is just a replica of a recipe from the golden era and lacks the main ingredient, it still has the same effects as the real Golden Cake.]
…
[Golden Blessing (Incomplete): Replenish, optimize body attributes]
…
[Note: When the food leaves the storage box, its rarity will drop over time.]
…
Unlike the first time he touched that big fried chicken drumstick, the Proper Meal class food was clearly displayed in words before Kieran.
"Has it been too long?"
Kieran wondered why the system didn't explain why the first Proper Meal class food didn't appear.
At the same time, he held back the urge to open the sealed box and eat the [Golden Cake]. Instead, he took out his school badge.
"Sign a new notarized contract."
Kieran said.
Garcia didn't object.
Or rather, Garcia had lived in Theorate for 4 years, so he was used to using the school's rules.
After everything was done, Kieran took out a pen and paper.
Garcia signaled the other five to follow him.
The five of them quickly spread out and carried out their own duties. Some blocked the surveillance cameras, some stood guard in front of the stairs.
Garcia's attention was placed on Kieran, who was writing.
He already knew most of the details, but Garcia didn't rush him. Soon, he saw something he didn't know.
"Sil Inner Sect?
The Dark Sect?!
"The Sil Sect has a Dark Faction!
And Lude is from Sil Inner Sect?! "
Garcia's eyes showed shock unconsciously.
Kieran smiled in his heart when he sensed the shock in Garcia's eyes. Most of what he wrote was real, it was from Lude's real life, and some of it was' edited 'by him, such as the so-called Sil Inner Sect.
Although the sects had the Dark Sect and Inner Sect, they were all hidden sects. Sil Sect was not one of them.
Kieran knew that very well.
