CH 101

Rode was relieved by this, as he was afraid that growing too fast would raise suspicion.

His abilities really couldn't be investigated, otherwise there would be too many inconsistencies. Lauren is still wondering how the spirit of the Dark Priest disappeared so quickly, without any trace left.

Fortunately, he didn't associate it with the previous Doomsday Cultist who was in the same situation. The deaths of the other Doomsday Cultists took a longer time and didn't raise any suspicion.

Due to the use of the "Trilogy of Justice Execution" of his "Dark Devourer" and "Frosty Blue", he couldn't possibly place such a powerful skill on them.

Otherwise, his fire seeds would be too strange, with too many functions and no connection between them.

He could only admit that he had ignited the third fire seed. It was abnormal to ignite three fire seeds in less than two months of enrollment, right?

Rode was originally very worried about this.

But unexpectedly, there were still many more eccentric people in the academy.

For example, a two-year student from the Second Branch encountered a monster that suddenly emerged from the sewer while patrolling Baihui Street in the inner city. He ignited the second fire seed in a life-threatening situation.

After being judged by the Mechanical Research Institute, its name was the mighty and domineering "Golden King".

The effect was that as long as he ate gold, this fire seed would quickly grow and provide him with a continuous supply of golden spiritual energy.

After learning this news, his entire family went bankrupt to buy all the gold they could, and the academy also provided some gold resources.

Afterwards, this guy ate gold mixed with rice every day. His spiritual energy intensity had already exceeded 30,000 units, and his spiritual energy level had risen from level 2 to level 5. The spiritual energy advancement ceremony was carried out with the shortest time interval, but he still couldn't fully adapt to such powerful spiritual energy.

One time, when Rode encountered him in the public lounge, this guy was surrounded by his aunts, sisters, and a bunch of women.

They mixed ground gold into the food and kept feeding him.

"Come, Marin, eat more."

"This is honey rice cake made by your aunt. You loved it when you were a child."

"Brother, brother, eat my sweet milk!"

"Eat more, eat more!"

Marin, who was surrounded in the middle, was a delicate and handsome young man. He had a bitter expression as he continuously stuffed various foods into his mouth.

His cheeks were so swollen that they were about to burst, but he still couldn't finish eating.

Fortunately, the academy didn't allow family members to stay overnight, otherwise there would be no place to sleep.

But compared to another guy, he was still lucky.

This guy was a four-year student, a "Sufferer" in the Fire Sequence.

It was also a new characteristic that appeared for the first time. The effect was to stimulate the soul and make it stronger when injured.

He had been unremarkable in the academy for four years, and no one knew how to develop or use this characteristic.

Until one time during a patrol mission, he was severely injured and on the verge of death while saving residents. At the critical moment, this characteristic broke through the barrier of the third fire seed, and then, it underwent an unprecedented powerful transformation—

In a conscious state, the soul would be permanently enhanced after being injured, no longer disappearing as the wound healed.

With just this change, the recorders in the Great Library immediately elevated this characteristic from the unremarkable fifth category to the first category.

The Spiritual Energy Testing Laboratory of the Mechanical Research Institute squeezed out time to conduct a comprehensive characteristic test for him, providing a complete written report and detailed data, along with the best training plan.

Since then, this guy fell into hell.

After his family obtained the approval of the academy, they joined forces with the Mechanical Research Institute and locked him in a sealed laboratory, with a whole batch of medical personnel guarding him.

Although Rode didn't know what exactly happened, every time he went to the training ground, he could always hear this guy's miserable screams, which were chilling.

Fortunately, his father still had some humanity and gave him a day off every three days, instead of the half-day off every seven days according to the plan.

Seeing this guy's unsteady walking appearance, Rode was very glad that his abilities were relatively normal and he didn't have to suffer.

It was also because of the existence of these extraordinary individuals that, although Rode received attention, it wasn't too much. The entire Kimberly Academy had a total of over 27,000 students, and the teachers were too busy to pay attention to everyone.

And this was the state that Rode liked the most. If he received too much attention, he wouldn't be free and might expose himself. If he was completely ignored, many things would become troublesome.

However, the members of Group Ten didn't think the same way.

Because Rode and Kassan, two extraordinary individuals, appeared in Group Ten, many teachers and instructors became interested in Group Ten.

Although the academy never admitted it, the Third Branch and the Tenth Sequence were indeed the worst branch and sequence, with the most ordinary and unremarkable students.

Although Kassan had two fire seeds, they were both very ordinary close combat physical attack methods.

Considering that Group Ten needed a leader and Kassan had a strong personality, it would be best if they could find a supporter and partner for her in the sequence. That's why she was assigned to Group Ten.Unexpectedly, Rode emerged from Group Ten, followed by Kassan, who demonstrated excellent close combat skills. This turn of events breathed life into what was once a stagnant situation.

Therefore, the teachers and instructors were particularly interested in discovering new talents from this ordinary group.

This was something they were more than happy to do.

Then, the happy days of the students in Group Ten came to an end.

They were subjected to much stricter management and training. Their leisure time was completely gone. Even when they were assigned the relatively easy task of guarding the gate, instructors would come to train them.

Only Kassan was extremely pleased. Due to the poor performance of most students, Group Ten had always been at the bottom. She had long been dissatisfied with these free and easy-going fellows. Now that this opportunity had come, she transformed into a female devil, made a key for each student's door, and pushed them hard every day.

Rode was the one who surprised and satisfied her the most. As a special student, he had made significant progress after a special training session.

I must join in too!

Due to the secret operation involving the Doomsday Cult and the Internal Affairs Tribunal, Rode's commendation was not made public. The headmaster, Theodore, sent his assistant Hines to deliver Rode's reward.

Fifty thousand silver soles, a hundred soul red crystals, and as much as three thousand credits.

According to the academy's rules, one-tenth of a student's credits are counted towards their group.

Group Ten gained three hundred points that day, moving from second to last in the entire academy to third to last.

Kassan was so happy that day that her eyebrows were almost invisible. She didn't force everyone to study for once, but instead hosted a party in Rode's dormitory, buying lots of delicious food out of her own pocket.

The amiable Kassan was irresistible at the party. She could tolerate the students' jokes, and even when Zales with green hair shouted at her and Rode, "Kiss each other" and "Let her carry your child", she didn't get angry.

Rode also found a good opportunity to harvest humanity. At the party, any physical contact he had with anyone would bring joy to most of the students, including himself.

Just as the battle with the Black Priest had depleted his humanity, the ingredients for the fire were almost insufficient.

So, Rode touched and pinched wildly at the party, harvesting humanity like crazy.

After the party, he gained more than a hundred points.

This efficiency was quite high, but unfortunately, he didn't harvest the Flower of Humanity.

Rode had long discovered that this material was quite precious. It was one of the key ingredients for making the "Stone of Resurrection", and the "Undying Spirit" also needed it.

The last Flower of Humanity was obtained by chance. How to get another one became the thing Rode wanted to know the most.

And the second thing he wanted to know was which star to ignite next?

After the battle with the Black Priest, Rode obtained a large number of souls, the most crucial of which were the soul of Balistan Selmy and the Law of Contamination with Origin.

This was the first time Rode saw words other than "soul". When he returned to the dream, he found that these two souls were actually one soul—

On the soul of the Black Priest, there was a strange brown substance revolving around it.

Obviously, this was the "contaminated trait" she mentioned.

The Black Priest had swallowed the contaminated trait, and the two had become one, but not completely one, like bacteria and host in a symbiotic state, inseparable, but not completely fused.

However, in terms of usage, it is considered a special soul with Origin, which can ignite the star fire.

Now that the crisis is temporarily resolved, Rode can choose more leisurely.

He originally thought this was a good thing, until he wandered in the wasteland of souls for three days.

Rode deeply regretted it.

The ashes of the bonfires on this wasteland were endless, and he could never reach the end, as if he could always find better ones.

He suffered from severe choice paralysis and couldn't make a decision.

What to do?

Rode was almost dead from the dilemma.
