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

"So normally speaking, a surge is definitely much more terrifying than a crash," Oden added.

Lu Yuan didn't stop walking; he headed towards his dormitory.

"But that's where the problem arises: we study forbidden subjects, so we have no fear of these things," Oden continued.

"Reason should only be as high as possible for us. We have countless ways to deplete our reason. Unless it suddenly spikes to a level we can't handle in a short period of time, such as a tenfold increase in reason, then we will indeed have some big problems."

"Besides, anything that could make you think twice and cause a tenfold increase in value is either something forbidden or something even more terrifying. So you don't need to worry at all. A small increase is no problem, and a big increase is just asking for trouble."

"Understood," Lu Yuan replied. He listened to Auden's explanation, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Who says that? But he's right, if it really skyrockets tenfold, we might as well just wait to die.

"Oh, and I've been sleeping pretty well these past few days. Also, because the pollution is so low here at the Knight Academy, my consciousness has recovered quite well."

Oden’s tone was somewhat lighthearted.

"I'll take these next couple of days to organize things. If you need anything else, just tell me, and I'll teach you. I came out here specifically to teach you about the Sea of ​​Knowledge and some alchemical formulas."

"Especially regarding the Sea of ​​Knowledge, there are some things I must tell you clearly. You absolutely must not mess things up, even if you still have some connection with the Sea of ​​Knowledge."

"Okay, I understand." Lu Yuan nodded.

"Then I'll go take a nap."

Oden had just finished saying he was somewhat awake when he went back to sleep.

"Alright." Lu Yuan was a little helpless, but it wouldn't make a difference if he stayed a couple more days.

He looked up and exhaled a puff of white breath. The dormitory was now in sight.

Lu Yuan returned to his two-story house and bolted the door.

He laid out the roll of map Dean had given him on the table. Lu Yuan had originally planned to go to the library; the map even marked the location.

But my badge still hasn't arrived. Blanca clearly said it would arrive by tonight, but a whole day has passed, and I don't know where things went wrong.

Without the badge, there is no Knight's Order; without the Knight's Order, you can't even enter the library.

Lu Yuan rolled up the map again with a bit of helplessness and decided to just leave it alone.

He sat down by the fireplace, closed his eyes, and began to operate the Guardian according to the regular schedule.

The experience gained from Guardian II doesn't increase much each day, only about 0.2 or 0.3.

But its strength lies in its stability; as long as it doesn't stop, it shouldn't be long before it can be upgraded again.

After an unknown amount of time, a knock suddenly sounded at the door. Lu Yuan was a little puzzled, opened his eyes, and got up to open the door.

Standing outside the door was none other than the Blue Knight, who was fully dressed in his uniform.

She looked at Lu Yuan as he opened the door, but had no intention of coming in. With a wave of her hand, she sent something flying towards him.

Lu Yuan subconsciously caught it, and when he opened his hand, he saw that it was a badge with the emblem of the Knight Academy engraved on the edge.

"I've taken your badge," the Blue Knight said.

Lu Yuan was taken aback. No wonder he hadn't received it yet; it was in the hands of the Blue Knight.

"I've placed thirty knight's tokens in your badge. Go buy whatever you want." The Blue Knight looked at Lu Yuan and nodded slightly.

Thirty pieces? Wow!

Lu Yuan held the badge in his hand, doing some mental calculations.

If you calculate it that way, you'll suddenly become very rich.

After all, according to Blanca, the purchasing power of the Knight's Token is quite considerable.

"Thank you, but why?" Lu Yuan put away the badge, looked at the Blue Knight, and frowned slightly.

"I need to go on a field mission," the Blue Knight said, looking at Lu Yuan.

"Fieldwork?" Lu Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled. "Where to?"

"Go to Watchtower City," the Blue Knight continued. "Things have been rather unsettled there lately; some rather serious incidents have occurred, and we need the Knight Academy's help to handle them."

Watchtower?

Back in Snow Owl City, Lu Yuan had already heard that it seemed many people had been transferred from Watchtower City.

Is even the Knight Academy involved now?

"You also need to focus on restoring your sanity and making sure you're in peak condition," the Blue Knight instructed, staring at Lu Yuan.

"The academy may send more students to participate in field work later, and even if you are a new student, you may be able to participate."

"Are even freshmen being sent there?" Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow.

The Blue Knight didn't explain much. She simply nodded, waved to Lu Yuan, and then quickly disappeared.

Lu Yuan stood at the door, his brows furrowing more and more.

Strange things have happened in the North. Could it be that the defenses at the Dead City have completely collapsed?

So, the other side was invaded by a strange force, which forced the deployment of a large number of personnel?

Sigh, now even the Blue Knights have been sent away.

Lu Yuan sighed softly. It seemed that the northern border was no longer safe.

Lu Yuan closed the door, held the badge in his hand and examined it carefully. It had the standard inscription of the Knight Academy, with the name Lu Yuan engraved below it in Imperial language.

It seems this is how they reveal their identity.

It has a faint energy fluctuation when touched, so there must be something engraved inside this badge.

Now that the badge has arrived, Lu Yuan decided not to continue cultivating. Anyway, it's not too late, and with the Knight Academy having inscriptions and streetlights everywhere, there's no need to worry about anything in the dark. So, he can go to the library now.

After confirming the location of the library, Lu Yuan hurried there.

The library is located on one side of the teaching area and is a tower. It can be reached by following a main road from the dormitory area.

After walking for a long time, a tall tower finally came into Lu Yuan's sight.

The tower is made of black stone, with rows of narrow, tall arches that taper upwards.

The tower's surface is covered with stone carvings, with vine patterns entwining heralds, and at intervals, there is a statue of an armored knight.

A row of stone beasts crouched on the eaves, their pointed tops covered with copper sheets. Snow fell on them, and the edges of the copper sheets gleamed with a dark green hue.

Lu Yuan looked up and surveyed the surroundings.

The main gate has two wooden doors with copper trim, and it looks quite old.

Next to the gate stands a waist-high stone platform with inscriptions carved on it.

Following Blanca's instructions, Lu Yuan pressed the badge onto the door. The inscription lit up, and the two large doors opened silently.

What comes into view is a sky full of books and bookshelves, as well as oil lamps glowing with a faint yellow light.
