Chapter 145 Mysterious Prize, Points Assessment

Starlight calendar year 1257, Xialong month (June).

Flash City, Dragon Heart Knight Academy.

The weather is hot and the breeze is gentle.

There is also a fiery atmosphere permeating the college.

Today is the graduation assessment day for the first class of Dragon Heart Knight Academy students.

Early in the morning, many fourth-year students who were about to graduate gathered at the martial arts training ground to discuss the upcoming graduation examination.

"I don't know what the graduation examination is like?"

"The academy has hidden it deep enough. They had to wait until we arrived at the assessment location before telling us the specific assessment content."

"No matter what the content is, since the assessment location is in the underground world, the difficulty will not be low."

"I heard that the underground world is very dangerous and full of monsters. I hope the academy won't make the assessment too difficult."

The students gathered together in twos and threes, and there was a buzz of discussion.

Outside the martial arts training ground, students from the other three grades were also watching curiously, wanting to see if they could get some information. After all, they would have to go through the same assessment in the future.

"Sean!"

Sheen finally squeezed through the crowd of younger students who were watching and entered the martial arts training ground. He was looking around for his friends when he heard a familiar call coming from his ears.

Turning around, he saw Luger and Solano waving to him.

"Why are you here so late?"

Walking closer, Luger punched Sheen's shoulder angrily.

The latter scratched his cheek and said with a smile: "The dean asked me to come over and say something."

Luger's eyes suddenly lit up, he came over and hugged Sheen's shoulders, and whispered mysteriously: "Did the dean tell you the information about the graduation assessment? Share it with me, we are brothers!"

Sheen shook his head and said: "Stop thinking nonsense. You don't know how strict the rules of the college are. How could the dean take the lead in breaking the rules? He just gave me a few words of encouragement."

Ruger was disappointed.

"What? The dean is too rigid. After all, you are also the chief of the fourth grade. What does it matter if you give me some information?"

"It's because Sheen is the fourth-year president and the dean believes he can get good grades, so he won't violate the rules and help him privately." Solano pursed his lips and smiled, revealing two shallow dimples, and turned to look at Sheen , "Xian, how are you preparing?"

"no problem!"

Sheen raised his right hand and made a confident muscle-flexing movement.

"I will definitely get first place this time too!"

Luge said with envy: "I heard that the top five students in the assessment can get a third-level dragon blood fruit and a mysterious prize."

The higher the level of Dragon Blood Fruit, the stronger the effect.

The lowest level of dragon blood fruit is exclusively for trainee knights.

The first and second graders in the academy, as well as some third graders who have not yet been promoted to knights, usually consume first-level dragon blood fruit.

The second-level dragon blood fruit is exclusively for knights to eat.

Only students who are promoted to knights are eligible to eat dragon blood fruit of this level.

As for the third-level dragon blood fruit, I heard that one can make an intermediate knight break through and become a high-level knight.

Among the graduates of this class, there are a total of eighteen intermediate knights including Sheen.

If you can get the third-level Dragon Blood Fruit, you can immediately break through and become a high-level knight.

Why isn't this enviable?

"That's great. I want the third-level Dragon Blood Fruit too." Luger said with envy on his face.

Solano chuckled and said: "The top five must be rounded up by those intermediate knight students. We should aim at the top fifty. We can also get a second-level Dragon Blood Fruit in the top fifty."

"The effect of the second-level Dragon Blood Fruit is quite inferior." Ruger muttered.

But this guy was an optimist and quickly put the matter behind him and turned to the topic of the mysterious prize.

"What do you think the so-called mysterious prize is?"

"I guess it's probably the stuff in the base." Solano's eyes flashed with longing, "I heard that there are many magical things there, and the Dragon Blood Fruit also comes from there."

"Isn't it a legendary magic item?"

"Unlikely. I heard that magic items can only be used by wizards, not knights."

"Could that be a potion?"

Luger and Solano were discussing passionately, while Sheen was silent and looked a little strange.

The dean called him over just now. In addition to encouraging him, he also told him the true identity of the so-called mysterious prize.

Ruger was really right, it was a magic item.

The name is 'Magic Weave Construct', a powerful magic item that can also be used by knights.

The dean also said that all graduates can be assigned a set of first-level magic pattern constructs, but only the top five outstanding students can be assigned a more powerful second-level magic pattern construct.

It is said that after a high-level knight is equipped with a second-level magic pattern structure, he can directly have a great knight-level combat power!

When Sheen heard this, he was a little confused.

It can make high-level knights become as powerful as great knights. The effect of this magic pattern structure is simply ridiculously powerful!

If these words hadn't come from the dean's mouth, he would never have believed it.

"It is said that wizards' magic items are very powerful and magical. I didn't think so much before, but now it seems that the rumors are indeed true."

"Magic items are already so powerful, how powerful must the wizards who create these magic items be?"

Xian secretly marveled.

Thinking that after joining the Knight Guard after the graduation examination, he would be able to team up with the legendary wizard, he couldn't help but feel a surge of heart, and felt that a whole new world was waving towards him.

"Sheen, what are you daydreaming about?"

Ruger suddenly stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Sheen, interrupting the latter's thoughts.

"Nothing." Sheen said vaguely, turning his head to look at the entrance of the martial arts training ground, "The dean and others are here."

The junior students at the entrance of the martial arts training ground were quickly dispersed, and Moritz walked in with a group of instructors.

After a short speech, a group of people left the academy and headed straight out of the city.

Soon, Sheen knew today's destination.

Many people know that there is a forest heavily blocked by the army near the Flash City.

It is said that there is a mining area in it, and a large amount of ore can be seen being transported out of it every day.

Sheen was originally very curious why a mining area needed to be blocked by the army, until he suddenly realized it.

It turns out that there is not only a mining area in the forest, but also an entrance to the underground world.

After passing through the blockade outside the forest, the group soon arrived at Camp No. 1.

When seeing hundreds of clay golems carrying ore back and forth in the camp, all the students couldn't help but stare wide-eyed.

"What is this?"

"It looks like a clay golem, which is said to be made of clay."

"Clay? That's amazing!"

"The wizard is really amazing!"

Exclamations came one after another.

Some students couldn't help but reach out to touch the clay golems passing by.

It was the first time they saw a human-shaped clay that could move.

Moritz and a group of instructors next to them didn't stop them, but just shook their heads and laughed.

When they first saw the clay golem, they were also full of surprise.

After passing through the camp, the group then entered the cave.

After seeing the stone golems stationed along the way, the students were amazed again.

After that, the group came out of the stalactite cave, rode a manta ray across the quiet lake, and landed on the island in the center of the lake.

There was already a human-faced lion waiting on the lakeshore, taking them to the assessment location.

Throughout the process, the students were confused and exclaimed all the way, feeling that everything they saw was so strange and novel, and they had never seen it before.

"Is this the underground world?"

Solano murmured in a low voice, with a surprised expression on her pretty face.

Sheen and Ruger also looked around with surprise.

It was the first time in their lives that they saw such a strange and weird place and strange creatures.

Everything presented in front of them made them feel as if they had entered a strange new world.

No, that's not right.

Compared to the surface, the underground world is like a brand new world.

Soon, led by the human-faced lion, a group of people arrived at the entrance of a cave.

The entrance was extremely huge, with a height of more than ten meters alone, enough to accommodate more than twenty people at the same time.

There were many fluorites embedded on the top of the cave, emitting weak fluorescence, illuminating the area near the entrance.

The place inside was pitch black, and it looked a bit creepy.

"Okay, we're here."

Moritz raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, turned around and looked around, and said solemnly:

"The test location is this cave, which has intricate tunnels, like a maze, and your task is to find the crystal ball in the tunnel."

Moritz spread his palm, revealing the crystal ball in his palm.

The crystal ball is only the size of an egg, round and translucent in light blue, with three shining stars inside.

"Each crystal ball has a different score. For example, the three light spots in the crystal ball in my hand represent three points."

"The final score of the graduation assessment will be the sum of the points of each student's crystal ball."

"The assessment time is ten hours. Once the time is up, everyone must leave immediately and is not allowed to collect crystal balls. In addition, it is forbidden to snatch crystal balls from others. I remind you that there are red-eyed crows in the cave who are responsible for monitoring the assessment status, so don't try to violate the rules."

"In addition, there are monsters stationed near the location of the crystal ball. The higher the score of the crystal ball, the more powerful the monsters stationed there are. It is best for everyone to do what they can."

"Now everyone takes the photosensitive potion, rests on the spot for ten minutes, and then starts the assessment."

Moritz waved his hand, and an instructor immediately stood up and distributed photosensitive potions to everyone.

After taking the potion, the students immediately felt that their vision became clearer, no longer as dim as before.

"How magical!"

"Is this the wizard potion? Awesome!"

"Finally I can see the surroundings clearly."

Many students were amazed, and more people began to prepare for the battle.

Sheen also began to check his weapons and equipment and make final preparations.

Although he was confident in his own strength, there were many elites in the fourth grade, and there were still many strong opponents. He would not underestimate them.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

As Moritz announced the start of the assessment, the students entered the cave one after another.

"Come on!"

"You too!"

After encouraging each other, Sheen, Ruger and Sorano separated at the fork in the road near the entrance and entered different tunnels.

As they went deeper, they encountered more and more forks in the road, and the students gradually dispersed.

Not long after, all the students around Sheen disappeared, leaving him alone.

The dark underground corridor was dead silent, with only the faint sound of footsteps echoing.

Sheen carefully observed his surroundings and subconsciously tightened the hilt of his sword.

The air was cold and damp, with a biting chill, which made Sean, who entered the underground world for the first time, particularly uncomfortable.

Fortunately, he had taken a photosensitive drug in advance, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to see the surrounding environment clearly.

After walking for a while, Sean keenly discovered that every few distances, there was a crow hanging upside down on the top of the cave, with its eyes still a rare blood-red color, and a layer of hard scales on its body surface.

"Is this the red-eyed crow that the dean mentioned?"

After Sean carefully tried several times, he found that these red-eyed crows were motionless, just staring at him. He immediately confirmed his guess, ignored it, and passed directly under them.

After walking more than a hundred meters, he came to a fork in the road with a total of three tunnels.

There was a strange rustling sound coming from the tunnel on the far left.

Sean hesitated, but still chose the tunnel on the far left.

Where there are monsters, the probability of crystal balls appearing is greater.

Not far away, a dense blood-red light suddenly lit up in the darkness ahead.

A closer look revealed that they were pairs of cold red animal pupils.

Squeak!

Accompanied by a sharp cry, a group of rats suddenly rushed out of the darkness, rushing towards Sheen at high speed like a mad beast.

Sheen's expression froze, but he was not panicked. He quickly retreated to the corner, leaning against the rock wall to prepare for the enemy.

The Dragon Heart Knight Academy not only teaches how to practice, but also teaches practical skills.

In addition to daily sparring between students, there are also many practical courses for fighting wild beasts in the wild.

In terms of fighting, Sheen is no longer a novice rookie.

Swinging his sword to cut a rat in half, Sheen then knocked away another rat that was trying to sneak attack with a shoulder collision. The blade in his hand suddenly trembled violently, tearing the air and slashing hard towards the front.

Ripple slash!

Buzz!

A low humming sound suddenly erupted in the void.

A strong force suddenly erupted, tearing more than a dozen rats in front of him to pieces, and a clear gap suddenly appeared in the dense rat group!

Such a powerful attack made the crazy rat group's offensive stagnate.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sheen quickly adjusted his breathing and swung his sword to kill two more rats.

He could see that the combat effectiveness of these monsters was not much stronger than that of ordinary people, that is, there were more of them. As long as they were not trapped in a siege, any knight could easily solve them.

After a while, Sheen successfully wiped out the rat group.

Crossing the dense rat corpses on the ground, he hurried to the direction where the rat group rushed out, and soon saw the stone pillar standing in the middle of the tunnel, with a crystal ball on the top.

Three points of light shone inside.

"Three points to start!"

Sheen picked up the crystal ball, with an excited look on his face.

Taking a deep breath, he continued to move forward.

After the harvest, he became more motivated.
