Being a knight is not easy

Chapter 124 Agree
Robin's heart trembled, realizing that Melinda wasn't testing him, but had already confirmed his strength. He was silent for a moment, then raised his head, his eyes cold. "Vice President, what exactly do you want?"

Melinda's lips curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. "What I want is a reliable and obedient follower. Robin, your talent and potential give me hope. As long as you are willing to cooperate with me, I can provide you with all the resources and support you need."

Robin quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. Melinda was one of the three vice presidents of the academy, and her resources and influence were undoubtedly what he needed most at the moment.

Her intentions are obviously not pure, and may even hide some danger.

"Mr. Vice President, I need time to think about it." Robin said in a low voice, with a hint of caution in his tone.

Melinda nodded, a hint of approval in her eyes. "Of course, you can take your time to think about it. But remember one thing—time waits for no one, and opportunities are fleeting."

After leaving the office, Robin couldn't calm down for a long time.

He walked down the corridor of the academy, Melinda's words echoing in his mind.

The identity of the legendary knight is his biggest secret, and Melinda's temptation makes him feel unprecedented pressure.

After three days of careful consideration, Robin finally made a decision.

He stood on the high tower of the academy, gazing at the distant sky.

This place has become a place where Robin can think alone.

Listening to the melodious bells, Robin fell into deep thought.

He cannot fight against the Wizarding Council on his own, and Melinda's resources and influence are undoubtedly what he needs most at the moment.

"Vice President Melinda, I have decided to accept your cooperation proposal." Robin stood in Melinda's office with a hint of firmness in his tone.

Melinda smiled slightly, with a hint of approval in her eyes: "Very good, Robin. Your choice is wise. I will provide you with all the resources and support you need."

Robin nodded, a hint of caution in his tone: "But, I have one condition."

Melinda's eyebrows raised slightly, and her tone was full of interest: "Oh? What conditions?"

Robin looked her straight in the eyes, his tone cold: "Our cooperation must be based on mutual trust. I don't want to be anyone's pawn."

Melinda chuckled, her eyes filled with meaning. "Robin, you are truly extraordinary. Don't worry, our cooperation is equal. I need your strength, and I can provide you with all the resources and support you need."

Robin nodded, feeling a little relieved. However, just when he thought the terms of cooperation had been agreed upon, Melinda suddenly reached out and gently placed her hand on his shoulder.

Her fingers were cold and slid across Robin's neck like a snake, making him shudder subconsciously.

"I have a small request every month." Melinda's voice was soft, but with a sense of oppression that could not be refused.

Robin's body stiffened instantly, his neck seemed frozen. He turned his head with difficulty and looked at Melinda: "What's your request?"

Melinda's lips curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile: "I need you to give me 100cc of blood for experiments every month. It has to be your blood." Her voice was as soft as a whisper, but it made Robin feel creepy.

After saying this, Melinda subconsciously licked her bright red lips, with a hint of greed and desire in her eyes.

The look in her eyes made Robin feel an unprecedented sense of danger, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake. Robin's heart was alarmed, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

Melinda's request is obviously more than just a simple experimental need, her intentions are far more complicated and dangerous than they appear on the surface.

"My blood?" Robin tried to remain calm, his tone tentative. "Vice Dean, what experiment do you need my blood for?"

Melinda chuckled, her eyes filled with meaning. "Robin, your blood contains the power of a legendary knight. This is very valuable research material. I need to use it to conduct some special experiments to help us better fight against the Wizard Council."

Robin's heart trembled, and then he shook his head firmly.

Melinda's smile remained unchanged, but her gaze grew sharper. "Robin, our cooperation is based on mutual trust. If you can't even meet this small request, how can I trust your sincerity?"

Robin was silent for a moment, quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

"You've practiced at least three breathing techniques, which makes me curious."

Melinda's last words broke Robin's fantasy.

But in the end he still chose to agree, simply because this woman was too mysterious and could easily see through the source of his cultivation. He couldn't hide too much in front of her.

After leaving Melinda's office, Robin couldn't calm down for a long time.

He walked down the corridor of the academy, Melinda's words echoing in his mind.

"Robin, what's wrong with you?" Elena's voice came from behind. She walked quickly to Robin's side, with a hint of concern in her eyes.

Robin came back to his senses and forced a smile: "It's okay, just a little tired."

Elina frowned, obviously not believing his words: "You look worried. Did Vice Dean Melinda say something to you?"

Under Melinda's guidance, Robin received the highest level of support from the academy. His training room was upgraded to a state-of-the-art facility, equipped with the finest weapons and equipment. Furthermore, Melinda provided him with a wealth of intelligence on the Wizarding Council and the city of Obeidi.

"This information is what we have collected over the years. I hope it will be helpful to you." Melinda handed a thick stack of documents to Robin with a hint of solemnity in her tone.

Robin took the document, a trace of gratitude flashing in his eyes: "Thank you, Vice President."

Melinda smiled slightly, with a hint of meaning in her tone: "You're welcome, this is what you deserve. Remember, our goal is the same - to stop the conspiracy of the Wizard Council."

Robin nodded. He knew in his heart that Melinda's support was not free, and she must have her own purpose.

With Melinda's approval, Robin immediately went to the academy's treasury to look for a batch of high-grade forging materials. He planned to forge a new Tang sword and compound bow.

With his current strength, these two weapons are seriously outdated, especially the pulley compound bow. Robin is afraid that he will break it if he uses too much force.

He immediately chose the extremely tough Tomis alloy, which was developed by the three-ring wizard Tomis. Combined with the earth dragon tendons, the new pulley composite requires 6000 pounds of force to pull it open, and the power of the arrow shot out can reach 12000 pounds.

As long as the arrow is hard enough, even a first-ring wizard's shield cannot block it.
