CH 144

The last time Rode advanced in spiritual power was also a ceremony conducted by Mina. After the advancement, Rode's overall abilities greatly improved, even his dreams underwent some changes.

The level of spiritual power is equivalent to the rank of the soul, which is an important indicator of a person's combat ability. Although it is not absolute, it can still prove its importance from the side.

Rode naturally had no objections to this. He had been waiting for a long time.

Along the way, Vila told him that the first and second levels of spiritual power were outside the system and were not standardized. It took most students two to three years to reach the third level of spiritual power, which was the longest.

But you only took less than two months, which is considered the fastest.

Rode didn't pay much attention to it. He still felt it was too slow.

"However," Vila said, "this is not the top. Your special training is about to begin, and you will meet stronger people. I hope you can learn from each other and achieve faster growth."

Rode asked, "Mr. Dean, will there be language classes in the special training?"

Vila said, "If you don't mind the extra workload, I can specially add this class for you."

"That would be great."

Rode nodded. If he couldn't figure out the meaning of the invading text, he would never be at ease.

Afterwards, the two chatted casually for a while.

Vila seemed strict and stern, but he was actually easy to get along with.

He told Rode that there were a total of 340 students in the secret branch, with 90 of them being special students. In the past month, they had made great progress and were already regarded as an independent combat group in the General Military Command, relieving a lot of pressure on Thalorian.

But most of the top performers with the [Strong] designation were almost all special students, and Rode would soon become one of them. Their missions were highly intense, and they hoped Rode could quickly make up for his shortcomings and become a comprehensive combatant.

It sounded like a good thing, Rode thought.

In the ceremony hall at the bottom of the base, Rode took off his outer clothes as Mina instructed and lay on the platform.

Mina looked a little downcast and had lost weight, but she still earnestly prepared for Rode's ceremony.

Vila placed a pure white crystal on Rode's chest, and the ceremony began.

Rode felt a powerful heat coming from his chest, and his blood became hot and boiling. At the same time, a strong drowsiness appeared in his soul, and he couldn't help but close his eyes.

When he woke up, the ceremony had already ended, and only Mina was left in the hall.

She said softly, "The ceremony was very successful. Let's test your spiritual power."

She took Rode's hand and led him to another room for a comprehensive examination.

After a moment, a new report appeared.

Spiritual Power Level: 3

Highest Spiritual Power Intensity: 2.1 thousand marks

Maximum Spiritual Power Output: 350 marks

Average Spiritual Pressure: 115

Estimated Total Spiritual Power: 210-910 thousand marks

Mina said softly, "The data is healthy, indicating that your soul has no defects and the intensity is evenly distributed. After your highest spiritual power intensity exceeds 6 thousand marks, you can undergo the next spiritual power ceremony."

Rode felt that Mina's mood was very low and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Haven't you recovered yet?"

Mina shook her head and said softly, "It's nothing. The reimbursement for your expenses will be approved soon. The Royal City Administrative Hall has already approved it, a total of 37,000 silver sols."

But Rode didn't care about money at the moment. He stood up and hugged Mina, saying softly.

"You have done your best. Everything is over now. The culprit is dead. We have returned to the Royal City. Let's forget about this and start a new life. Isn't that good?"

Mina's body trembled slightly, and it was only then that Rode realized she was cold.

She said softly, "But they are all dead. Teacher Mole is dead, Instructor Anye and Instructor Bach are dead too. Beowood hasn't been found yet, but he's probably dead too. Do you know? At that time, I was actually awake, but I didn't dare to move. The steel hand and black fish who took care of me died right in front of me, and even their bodies were not intact... Rode, I am grateful that you killed that villain, otherwise I wouldn't be able to close my eyes now. But I doubt whether my weakness and the truth I pursue are of any use. Maybe pursuing pure power is the right thing to do."

Rode gently patted her shoulder and said softly,

"No need to feel guilty. You are not a combatant and have no combat duties. It's because I am too weak. In fact, I could have killed him a long time ago. Don't be discouraged. The truth you pursue is valuable, and one day it will radiate endless brilliance."Rode briefly discussed some potential future weapons and their principles, speculated on their development prospects and how they could benefit Thalorian, emphasizing that they would certainly help people live better lives.

Unbeknownst to him, Mina was already in tears.

"Little Rode," she choked out, "I don't know if what you're saying is true or false, but my intuition tells me it's true. Thank you for comforting me. When you have time, you must meet my teacher."

"Okay."

Suddenly, Mina lightly touched Rode's cheek and ran away.

Rode touched his cheek, it was wet, and it wasn't from her hand.

He shook his head, "This girl, she's grown up but still acts like a little girl."

Although his psychic level had increased, unlike last time, Rode didn't feel anything special.

Back in his dormitory, while considering who to send the secret letter to, a spirit raven flew in from outside the door, bringing a letter.

Rode unfolded the letter, it was from Miss Green Feather.

The gist of the letter was to reassure him to stay in the secret branch, complete all the training courses, and then he would be considered graduated. He could come to her defense zone to take up his post, the position was reserved for him, and there were many benefits and so on.

In summary, it was one sentence, "Follow me, I've got your back."

Are all the girls in Thalorian so precocious? A thirty-year-old woman in my world is still an underage girl, you're just in your twenties, why are you acting like a big sister?

Little girl, one day you'll have to call me big brother.

Rode put away the letter, suddenly remembered the unfinished letter, and had an idea.

This secret letter, isn't it perfect to send to her?

Green Feather is completely trustworthy and has enough conditions to fully exploit the value of this letter.

And I don't have to worry about her doubting me, asking where the information came from.

Rode decided to do it, picked up the charcoal pen, added Green Feather to the letter, thought for a moment, and added sister at the end.

Then he made up a few reasons below, and wrote his name at the end, the letter was finished.

He put the letter in the spirit raven's bag.

The spirit raven flapped its wings and flew away.

Good.

Rode watched the spirit raven fly out of the door.

In this way, another bunch of pests were cleared.

That disgusting iron mask should be done for, right?

With this beautiful dream, Rode returned to the dream chair and took a nap.

When he woke up the next day, he felt extremely refreshed, the aftereffects of entering and exiting the dream and using [Awakening] had completely disappeared.

This chair is really useful, with it and [Chilling Blue], I don't have to worry about recovery anymore.

Rode opened the door, just about to go to the main training ground of the base, when a red-haired girl in golden armor grabbed his arm.

"You're Rode, right?"

Rode recognized her, she was the one who scored two hundred times higher than him in a certain test, the instructors called her "The Golden Shining Valkyrie."

"That's me."

"That's great."

The Golden Shining Valkyrie smiled slightly.

"Teacher Churchill asked you to hurry to the special classroom, you're ten seconds away from being late."

Rode was surprised, "Isn't that already late———"

Bang!

The howling wind gave Rode a full meal, and the approaching lake view almost made him think he was entering a dream.

When he stopped, he was already in a bright classroom, the red-haired girl in golden armor sat next to him, and there were various students sitting around, among them a group of very beautiful girls.

Rode glanced a few times, he seemed to have seen them once among the special students.

"That student!"

A very loud and rough voice came.

"We're in class now, please don't stare at the female students."

A slight laughter sounded, and the beautiful female students all turned their eyes away.

Rode turned his head and saw a very burly man, with a large hammer and a large axe crossed on his back, his whole body was steaming with red blood.

He was standing on the podium, his big eyes like copper bells staring at Rode, his brown goatee was about to curl up.

Rode quickly sat down.

The big man knocked on the wall, the rumbling sound made Rode doubt if the wall was going to fall.

"Now, let Churchill from Apple Town reveal the truth of the world to you."
