Chapter 1834: Chapter 1831: An Invitation from the Void
Since the Holy City has completed its merger with the demon,
figures like the Pope are still highly respected within the Holy City, even the captain of the Secret Language Knight Order and the principal of Mi University’s Holy City branch, Hugo Harrison, personally came upon receiving the information.
Days passed continuously, and the Pope stood quietly at the gate of the Bell Tower waiting.
If a Knight Squad needed to go to the Bell Tower for a fate adventure, he would politely step aside… sometimes, when encountering a knight with spatial characteristics, he would even kindly offer a few pointers.
Regardless of wind or rain,
the Pope just stood there quietly, with no unnecessary changes in the starlit brain between his head.
However,
the longer the Pope waited, the more anxious the Holy City became.
Even when Captain Hugo personally extended an invitation for the Pope to sit in the nearby reception area, it was still refused, as if there was something crucial that must be immediately notified to Han Dong.
Just as Hugo was getting a bit worried.
A black carriage suddenly arrived, and Mr. Black White, wearing a thin trench coat, stepped down from the carriage, with a white mask on his face.
“Vice Captain of the Plague Knights and Director of the Mysterious Department at the Knight Academy – Mr. Black White, it’s a pleasure to meet Mr. Pope.”
“Hmm?”
The Pope seemed to feel some homology, observing the mysterious masked person before him with a curious look.
“There actually exists such a high-level Astrologian among humans, and it seems there’s something else mixed within you, a crow? Unexpectedly, besides Nicholas, there is another highly mixed species in this city.
Dual souls,
Pseudo-King,
Forbidden Realm,
you seem in no way inferior to the Crow God.”
Pope gave extremely high praise upon meeting, he could even see a ‘starlit trait’ on Mr. Black White that could be used for initiation into the Void.
“Mr. Pope, it’s rare to have such an opportunity, I specially invite you to the Stargazing Room for a visit… if Nicholas comes out, the Stargazing Room will also be the first to observe it.”
Although interested, the Pope prioritized the more urgent matter, politely smiling in refusal:
“You don’t need to mind me at all.
Only my body is here, my spirit can at any time roam the cosmos, and during the days I’ve been standing here, I have finished reading all the classics of the Kavtan Planet.
What I am going to report to Nicholas is of utmost importance and cannot afford the slightest mistake.”
Mr. Black White continued:
“Nicholas was once my student, when he attended the Knight Academy, he would spend a fixed time in the Stargazing Room each day studying… records related to when Nicholas was an Apprentice Knight are still preserved there.
If you’re interested, we could even chat about other things regarding him.
Besides, the Clockmaker who manages the Bell Tower is also my friend, as soon as Nicholas comes out, he’ll be informed to come to the Stargazing Room and meet us.”
In an instant, a meteor seemed to streak across Pope’s pupils.
Upon hearing that he could learn about Nicholas’s past and know his growth experiences, curiosity and interest quickly proliferated and exploded within Pope’s mind.
“Hmm… okay!
Since you know the Clockmaker, you can ensure that when Nicholas comes out, he won’t go elsewhere… let’s go to the so-called Stargazing Room for a while, I’m also curious about how human Astrologians operate.”
Seeing this, Captain Hugo also breathed a sigh of relief.
Pope’s identity is no ordinary, not only is he the youngest professor at Mi University, but also a Son of the Void.
If the demon side knows that Pope waited outside for several days without any hospitality, many forces or demons might have a negative view of the Holy City.
…
The reason for such a delay.
was because Green participated in the [Eighteen Trials] at the club.
Although Green ultimately dominated, the price he paid was extremely heavy.
Recovering from severe injuries, Green gathered the remaining energy of the Abyss in his body, shaping an absolute madness body, to compete in eighteen almost impossible death matches.
By the final round, Green’s consciousness was nearly dispersed, relying on innate madness to continue fighting.
Medical staff were already waiting outside.
But when Green won the last round, an anomaly occurred… unlike previously, when a failed challenge would transform him into the Abyss on the spot.
This time the hard-won victory induced a type of strange change not even seen by Han Dong, it was also Sally’s first encounter.
The Abyss Holes that covered Green’s body somehow inversely devoured him.
The Abyss that turned inside out devoured Green’s body and morphed into what seemed like an ’embryo structure’ Abyss Stone on the spot,
attaching to the stone’s surface, whispers and heartbeats that drove one mad could be heard.
Han Dong was certain at this moment,
such transformation in Green stemmed from extreme combat imparting insight and breakthrough… and he immediately returned to the S-01 world with this Abyss Stone on his back.
Upon returning to the Bell Tower.
Massive Eternal Night Mist incredibly intense over the Holy City gathered continuously, swirling in a whirlpool formation.
It surprisingly formed a temporary transmission node, capable of reaching the “Center of Chaos”.
Such sight phenomenon is evidently born due to Green.
Sitting within the Stargazing Room, witnessing this scene, a sense of crisis surged forth in Pope’s heart, and he couldn’t help but mutter: “Green, this monster, has had another major breakthrough it seems…”
When Han Dong emerged from the Bell Tower with the Abyss Stone on his back.
the traction from the Mist center directly sent the Abyss Stone toward the [Center of Chaos].
Han Dong watched as Green fully departed, only lowering his raised head when the mist completely dispersed.
He then looked at the Clockmaker not far away and sent over an item still in preservation.
“Clockmaker, this is a letter personally written by Mr. M, as long as you deliver it personally to the Black Tower Office, you can undergo a renewed ‘Out-of-Control Assessment’, and it won’t be too strict.
Once passed, your personal data will be fully restored, including your [World Investigator] identity.”
Due to the brain structure issue, the Clockmaker had no ability to express emotions, and could only awkwardly respond:
“Thank you… additionally, Mr. Black White invites you to the Stargazing Room, he and a dignified guest named Pope are waiting for you there.”
“Huh? Teacher and Pope are together?”
Han Dong quickly rushed to the Knight Academy with Sally, stepping into the domain of the Mysterious Department, ascending the Dark Moon Tower.
Inside the Stargazing Room.
Mr. Black White and Pope were sitting and chatting merrily, holding in their hands a cocktail personally mixed by Black White – ‘Starfall’.
“Nicholas, you’ve finally come out… I’ve been waiting many days for you.
If it weren’t for the direct request from the teacher, I wouldn’t have wasted my time.”
“Principal? What’s the issue?”
“I don’t know the specifics, the teacher personally requested that I take you to the [Void].
Though I’m unaware of what matter, if going to the Void to see the teacher’s entity, it must be very important.
If you don’t need rest, let’s set out immediately.”
