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

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Yuan handed him his badge.

The senior student took the badge, squinted at it for a long time, then looked up at Lu Yuan and asked another question in disbelief:

"You passed everything? Really? I remember you came here just a couple of days ago. The certification process only ended today, right? Did you cheat? That shouldn't be the case. That String Knight guy isn't that easy to fool."

Lu Yuan didn't bother arguing with him further, simply nodding and saying that he had passed.

After confirming several times that the two intermediate certification marks on the badge were genuine, the senior student returned it to Lu Yuan with some disbelief.

"I didn't expect you to be so amazing! But since you've passed the intermediate certification and taken on this task, let me tell you, the academy is really short of people with intermediate pharmacy and inscription certifications lately, so you've come in just in time."

As he spoke, the senior student tore off a piece of paper, wrote down a long string of addresses, and stamped it with half a seal.

"Here's the address. Just go there and tell them you've accepted a mission in the bounty area. Show them your badge, and they'll understand."

Lu Yuan took the note, glanced at it, and nodded.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Senior, has the workload suddenly increased recently?"

The senior looked at Lu Yuan in front of him, as if he had sensed something, and finally nodded: "Yes."

The senior lowered his voice: "Things haven't been peaceful outside lately, just be careful. Go on your way."

Following the location, Lu Yuan headed towards his destination. Starting from the living area, he traversed most of the academy, bypassed the main hall plaza, and followed the winding snow path uphill. The pine trees on both sides of the path were covered in snow, along with some white spherical plants, somewhat resembling the green spherical plants that used to decorate roadsides on Earth, only now they were white. The wind here remained unchanged, clearly indicating that the Knight Academy's inscriptions were still working.

As you continue upwards, you can look back and see the entire academy, as well as the majestic, interconnected snow-capped mountains in the distance, with the suspended tower standing at the highest point on the northern summit.

Along the way, Lu Yuan vaguely sensed several gazes coming from the shadows on both sides of the road. Someone was hiding there and did not show themselves, indicating that this road leading to the top of the mountain should be a very secluded area of ​​the Knight Academy. Lu Yuan did not stop or look around, but continued forward.

During the journey, Lu Yuan asked Auden, "By the way, did you see any herbs for making dragon blood potions at the Knight Academy?"

"No," Oden said with a hint of helplessness.

"Now that we have the dragon blood glue, we can't find the other medicinal herbs. You'll have to use more knight tokens to have any hope. The missing herbs weren't rare in my time. Theoretically, since they can even grow dragon blood trees, they shouldn't be lacking these herbs. Unless the Northern Territory doesn't use them much, this might not be the case. Right now, we can only get the knight tokens. There's no better way."

Lu Yuan quickly arrived at the highest point of the North Cliff District. Before him stood a solitary gray stone hall, almost embedded in the mountainside. A stone wall surrounded the hall, and the roof sloped steeply with snow piling up on the eaves. The windows were narrow and tall, fitted with thick glass. The walls were engraved with numerous runes, some of which glowed faintly. The arched doorway was covered with an inexplicable metal shell, the material of which was unknown, its dark color exuding a sense of weight.

The gate was extremely tall, about the height of three or four people. Looking inside, there were many buildings embedded in the mountain. It was clear that the tower had dug out a lot of things from the mountain, which meant that the Knight Academy was actually much more than what was on the surface. Perhaps there were even more hidden underground or in other nearby mountains.

Lu Yuan withdrew his gaze. This place seemed to be heavily guarded. There were even two people standing at the door who looked like guards, but their auras were not strong. They should be around the second level, which would be considered a small captain in the outside world. I didn't expect them to be just doormen here.

Upon seeing Lu Yuan, the person immediately stepped forward and said, "The area ahead belongs to the Knight Academy's Suspended Tower. Approaching is not permitted except for missions and emergencies."

Lu Yuan simply handed over his badge and the note together. The two guards took the badge, looked at the mark on it, and the task on the note. They were stunned. They looked at the young man in front of them and did not expect that he would have two intermediate certifications at the same time. This was very rare.

"I didn't expect you to accept this mission," the guard said, returning the badge to Lu Yuan with a more respectful tone. "Just keep going straight ahead after you go in, and someone will come to meet you."

Lu Yuan thanked the guard and walked into the hall in the direction the guard pointed.

Just as Lu Yuan approached, Auden's voice suddenly sounded off: "Lu Yuan, something's not right here."

"What's wrong?" Lu Yuan asked.

It's important to know that his gray text didn't provide any clues, meaning there shouldn't be anything special here.

"There's a pagan aura here," Oden said gravely.

Lu Yuan felt somewhat incredulous. How could there be an aura of heretics? His own gray text hadn't given any indication.

"Never mind why there's an aura of heretics," Oden continued. "It's not strong, it's rather faint, but it's definitely there. Be careful. Your mission requires so many intermediate-level potion certifications, it's probably related to heretics. They've most likely gotten their hands on something related to heretics and are researching it."

Oden's explanation made Lu Yuan suddenly understand why so many people were needed; it seemed that the Knight Academy had also gotten involved.

As Lu Yuan continued forward...

"No," Oden suddenly retracted his words, "the aura of this heretic is rather strong. If your mission is really related to heretics, be very careful. This thing is extremely polluting, and this aura is still changing."

At that moment, gray and white text suddenly appeared before Lu Yuan's eyes.

[Environmental Sensing: Pollution detected. Please be careful.]

Looking at the emerging gray-white text, Lu Yuan became even more certain of Auden's perception. Auden was indeed more reliable than the gray-white text at times. This made Lu Yuan realize the limitations of his gray-white text, which not only existed in targets that he could not see or observe, but also had certain limitations.

Back in Bronze City, the Gray Pact members were able to conceal their aura and form, which is why the gray and white characters didn't appear, and their aura is still present.

Lu Yuan continued forward with some helplessness. As he moved forward, he discovered that there were surprisingly many people here. In fact, Lu Yuan hadn't seen many students at the Knight Academy these past few days, apart from attending classes. Normally, the Knight Academy takes three years to graduate, with a maximum extension of two years. If you don't graduate within five years, you lose your qualification. With such a long study period, there should be quite a lot of people here.

But why aren't there so many people? Are they all on missions? But that's unlikely. Obviously, this provides the answer: it seems there are some areas of the Knight Academy with a large number of people, and these people are probably all senior students.

Throughout the entire hall, Lu Yuan couldn't distinguish one place from another, but he continued forward. The ground was made of gray and white stones, and there was a line on the ground. Lu Yuan followed this white line and continued forward. Here, Lu Yuan also saw many people, who all seemed to be busy with their own things.

Moreover, most of their badges had a primary certification mark, indicating that they were all people who had passed the primary pharmacy certification. However, Lu Yuan did not see any people with intermediate pharmacy certification.

Soon, Lu Yuan followed the white patterns on the ground to a large hall.
