85 Last Week of Preparation (End of Volume)
[The Order of Zeus. ]
It leads to the highest peak of the Holy City.
The council, which was the highest authority of the Holy City, had been set up at the highest peak.
Its structure was designed with the design of the Sky Garden of ancient Babylon, and with the addition of magic, it made this place a true 'Wonder of the World' and 'Place of the Gods and Kings'.
Every decision made by the council would determine the future of humanity.
All-important deeds involving the safety and security of the Holy City would be discussed here.
In today's regular meeting, the intelligence talked about the [London Street Ghost Incident] that was completed by Cass and the others.
The detailed procedure for the execution of the mission was handed to every member of the council in text form.
From the report alone.
The weight of this matter wasn't much to be concerned about compared to the 'out of town investigation' of the Order, killing a large number of creatures outside the city and obtaining the latest out-of-town intelligence.
After all, the incident had been fully resolved and the target was finally killed completely by [Punishing Knight] Celeste.
However, the Councilors sitting here, arguably the highest intellect among the surviving humans in the Holy City, were able to see many details that were not visible to normal people.
"How could Marcellus, a human who couldn't even complete his knightly studies, bear the brunt of this?
More than two hundred civilians were used for sacrifices only to draw creatures from outside the city, not to help him support his flesh... This is something you need to continue investigating."
"Yes!" The intelligence officer nodded.
"Have you identified the four trainee knights on this bounty mission?
Faced with such a conspiracy event, plus the fact that the local police station was secretly controlled and the real was concealed, they were able to find out the clues in advance, found an anomaly and reported it to the police.
The fact that they were also able to follow up and perfectly assist the knight while completing the mission shows that these four people have a high overall level.
In the future, we can pay attention to and strengthen their training."
"Their identities have been clarified.
Three of them have been identified, two of them were born to hereditary nobles.
There is also one who is a direct student of Duncan, the vice president and director of the Mechanical Association, in the [Mechanical] faculty.
And the last person in the squad, who used the pseudonym [Aaron Andeva], a name that was not found in the Knight Academy...calling himself a two-star Mystic Apprentice.
We have checked this matter with the Department of Mysteries, and Mr. Black and White admitted that this student is one of his 'private' cultivators, and it is inconvenient to reveal his name at the moment."
"Since he is Mr. Black and White's disciple, there's no problem.
However, if any information about this mysterious student appears in the future, you still have to report to us."
"Okay."
The other councilors continued regarding this incident.
"The frequency of incursions into us by beings outside the city walls has begun to increase recently, and their methods are becoming more and more stealthy, making it necessary to strengthen the security of the second level.
I suggest expanding the recruitment of trainee knights, even if those who come from the expansion fail the entrance test, or drop out midway through the course, they can be sent directly to work in the second level's security subdivision.
Regularly check their minds to make sure there are no bad cases like Baker.
This will effectively improve the overall quality and competence of the policing staff and reduce the occurrence of such incidents.
Once it's recorded, let's talk about the next incident."

Mystery Department - "Old Sewer
Han Dong, whose mission was over, continued to turn his attention to his studies.
With the ability to do 'Plague Manipulation', Han Dong toned down the amount of time he spent on Plague Science each day.
At 3pm, he would head to the [Stargazing Room] to learn about the 'summoning class' from Mr. Black and White.
Mr. Black and White also gave Han Dong, a special study room.
Mostly, Han Dong studied on his own by reading relevant books in the cubicle alone to understand the fundamental meaning of 'summoning'.
The study time for the summoning class was around 4 hours.
For the remaining time, Han Dong would conduct [Special Study].
Read this invaluable 'Book of the Dead - Eye Codex' and try to understand and learn the 'knowledge of evil' on it.
While reading, Han Dong would not be contaminated though.
However, his mind would be pulled by these odd words and the patterns attached to them, and he would fall into an inescapable state after reading for a long time.
Therefore, Han Dong would usually take a break after reading for forty minutes.
There was one time when he was too engrossed in reading and unknowingly 'disguised' his head and turned into a [Faceless One] ... This would be a big deal if others saw it.
..........
A week of joyous learning has passed.
Tomorrow at midday it would be time to enter the space of true destiny as a squad.
Cass had also called Han Dong in advance and asked him to meet at 08:30 am sharp tomorrow morning on Center Street.
Cass would assign some necessary props to the squad members to be ready for anything.
"Let's stop here tonight and rest early."
After closing the human skin books, Han Dong headed straight back to the [Old Sewer].
Due to ending her studies early tonight, Miss Pasha was still awake, currently cultivating the fungus while drinking wine.
" Miss Pasha, I'm going to sleep first."
"Don't rush... you come here!"
Before Han Dong could react, he was directly tugged by a thin, gentle arm and dragged towards the desk.
Lecturer Pasha, who had originally looked drunk, became serious at this moment.
"You really want to follow a group of three-star trainee knights to the [Destiny Space]? Ever consider the difficulty?"
"Considered."
"....."
Miss Pasha was slightly silent for a moment, and took out a set of lightweight "White Silver Soft Armor" from the drawer that she seemed to have secretly prepared for Han Dong.
"Your body is not suitable for wearing armor, even light armor... This pure silver soft armor has a total weight of no more than 1.5kg, it can effectively resist some of the attacks of evil things, it might be able to save your life at a critical moment."
Miss Pasha always felt it wasn't a good idea to give something to a student for no reason, and immediately added, "It's hard to recruit a student, I just don't want you to just die, so get it!"
"Thank you, Miss Pasha."
"Alright, go to sleep... Remember to think more about the "fusion" move you just learned the day before yesterday before you go to sleep, so you don't forget all about it when you're in danger."
"Mm."
Han Dong knew very well that Miss Pasha was very concerned about him.
During these two weeks, Pasha had not only divided a large portion of her energy on him, but also handed over some 'unique' abilities to Han Dong that he couldn't learn in books.
Han Dong, who was lying on the cot, didn't feel any tension at all, but rather a little excitement.
"I wonder which literary work will be the fate event for, the prison is about to expand, so I might be able to find a prison junior partner for Miss Chen Li in the destiny event."
Recruiting a new helper.
This was exactly the reason why Han Dong kept over thirty points of load space unused.
