I can see experience bars after being transported to another world.

"Yes and no." Norbert walked to his side. "These things are made with special materials and special techniques, according to standard procedures. They are standard special components within the Night's Watch."

"Then why isn't it considered a standard supernatural weapon?"

"There are a few steps left," Norbert said. "The materials are just the foundation. After it's made, an inscriptionist needs to inscribe it. After that, it needs to be enchanted. Only after the enchanting is successful will it be sent back to this warehouse."

"Spirit Awakening?"

"It means to bring it to life." Norbert patted the shelf behind him. "Every piece of clothing here possesses a certain wisdom."

Lu Yuan twirled the sleeve in his hand and paused.

"Intelligence? Then is this considered strange?"

"Ah, don't be nervous." Norbert smiled. "To prevent any mishaps, its abilities and intelligence have been limited in advance. Nothing will go wrong. You'll see after a while that these things are much, much more obedient than you imagine."

Lu Yuan nodded.

"You must pay attention during normal use," Norbert added. "It has various functions. You can explore them yourself when the time comes."

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"At will? Doesn't that mean it's not much different from the Blue Knight's cloak?"

Afterwards, Lu Yuan changed into his coat.

The size fits quite well. It's not much different from the previous uniform, and it feels lighter.

Lu Yuan adjusted his collar, thinking to himself that it would be better if it were a little looser.

At that moment, the fabric at his waist tightened slightly.

Lu Yuan looked down at his waist and raised an eyebrow.

It doesn't have a spirit yet, right? How can it respond?

interesting.

"See?" Norbert chuckled from the side. "Later, I'll guide you through the spirit ritual. After that, you can go back and adjust to it for a few days, and it will be completely at your beck and call."

Following his original plan, Lu Yuan selected a few ordinary inscribed garments.

Slim, cold-proof, with basic protective markings, washable.

There are 23 points in total, in 3 sets.

From outerwear to inner layers and even underwear, everything is available.

In the North, it's quite uncomfortable without anything to keep warm.

Upon exiting and registering, the coat, which scored 300 points, and the ordinary clothes, which scored 23 points, were immediately crossed out.

There are exactly 250 minutes left.

Lu Yuan prepared to exchange for some more materials.

The Blue Knight made it very clear that once you enter the Knight Academy, it becomes extremely difficult to get out in the early stages.

To master the art of eerie inscriptions, you need to practice with the materials you find.

If you want to continue training this skill at the Knight Academy, you must prepare enough materials now.

Besides, with so many points, there's no harm in not using them.

Anyway, he doesn't need to buy anything else for the time being, so replacing it with materials is just right.

Not to mention, he also carried a heat core of a heat devourer in his arms.

Those special materials that fell from the strange creature should be able to make some decent things.

He'd just left it there, and he felt a little restless.

Moreover, we mustn't let our guard down one day and allow the "knowledge bug" to gnaw it away; that would be quite ridiculous.

You should know that the crystallized consciousness is still missing a corner.

Lu Yuan made up his mind.

Let's practice with some common bizarre materials from the North first, and then push our bizarre inscription skills a little further.

As for materials related to heat, it would probably be difficult to find them in the North.

We'll see when the time comes.

So he briefly explained his needs to Norbert.

I need some weird materials, even polluting materials, to do some small research myself.

He didn't tell anyone about his knowledge of strange inscriptions.

Having exceptional knowledge and being fond of pondering these things—that's a valid reason.

Norbert did find it a little strange after hearing it, but that was all he found strange.

Since embarking on the extraordinary path and becoming members of the Night's Watch, everyone faces danger, so everyone has their own preferences.

Moreover, given their extraordinary knowledge, who knows what kind of things they like to research?

"No problem," Norbert agreed readily. "We may not have much else, but we have plenty of materials here."

Then, he led Lu Yuan outside, talking as they walked.

"Slightly larger branches have no shortage of all kinds of bizarre materials," Norbert continued. "They deal with the bizarre all year round, and their hunting teams bring things back."

"Those people in the knowledge channel who specialize in studying the supernatural break down these things one by one, figuring out which ones are usable, which ones aren't, and how to use them. Over time, their inventory has become enormous."

"However," Norbert changed the subject, "most of these materials are meant to be given to inscription masters to create related materials, or rather, to give them practice. Unfortunately, there are far too few inscription masters these days. Most of them are high-level inscription masters, and their research on these strange inscription materials is quite limited."

"So many materials were piled up there and no one used them. In the end, most of them were used as alchemy materials, which was a waste."

As they spoke, the two walked out of the underground warehouse and onto the ground floor of the logistics area.

"The materials warehouse is on the ground floor," Norbert explained. "These things aren't particularly valuable, so there's no need to store them underground. Except for a very few special materials, most of the common ones are here."

This warehouse is indeed not as strict as the one containing the extraordinary clothing from before.

There weren't even any guards at the entrance; the area in the upper left corner of the logistics division was quite quiet.

Norbert pushed open the door and went inside. Lu Yuan followed, completely stunned.

Inside the warehouse, there were stacks of squares piled up together.

Shelves and containers were stacked one on top of another, piled up from the floor to the ceiling like a mountain.

With so many things, if he goes to find them himself, he probably won't finish even by tomorrow.

Fortunately, there was a booklet hanging under each shelf.

The booklet describes which strange creatures the materials for this shelf were collected from, what parts of them, and what characteristics they possessed.

Lu Yuan opened the nearest book and started reading from top to bottom.

The finger bones of the Ice Skull. The compound eyes of the Frost Spider.

The exoskeleton of a frost spider, the fangs of a frost spider, the silk of a frost spider, the pupa of a snow worm, and the molted skin of a snow worm.

A long list of strange names that Lu Yuan had never heard of before was displayed.

Lu Yuan decided to check the price first.

The Ice Skull series is quite expensive. The core costs 10 points each, the skull costs 6 points each, and a finger bone costs 8 points each.

Lu Yuan made a quick estimate in his mind.

I have 250 points left, which is enough to buy a few sets at this price.

He opened the booklet and read the description of the Ice Skull: "The eerie creature that emerged after the icy wilderness devoured humans, its remaining skull fused with its body."

Ah, so that's what it looks like.
