(AN: Explain the doubt stated earlier in this chapter.
The probiotic fungus grows in Han Dong's body, and through 'bridging' and 'assisting blood transport' and other auxiliary methods, the protagonist's body reaches normal human standards, just like wearing an exoskeleton device is enhancing the body's functions, the essence is not integrated into the cells and is not a part of the body (It does not consume the weight value.)
Cass's enthusiasm didn't really mean anything else.
The ghoul quest from a week ago.
As the quest progressed, the objective of the event changed from a newborn ghoul, to a mature ghoul, which then led to a small ghoul lair, the difficulty level was directly elevated to a level that Cass couldn't have accomplished on his own.
Multiple important aspects were handled, all relying on Han Dong's resilience.
Furthermore, with Cass injured, Han Dong actually killed the mature ghouls on his own, the final scene of the 'fierce ghosts emerging' was burned into Cass' heart to this day.
Han Dong definitely belonged to the top students in the Mysterious Department, with boundless potential.
After a quick hush, Cass, still with one arm on Han Dong's shoulder, turned to look at the squad members.
"This is what I call the mysticism genius, Aaron. A mere two stars, Andeva, has now obtained the 'Weapon of Fate' suitable for himself through the Hidden Event.
It possesses both plague attacks and evil spirit summoning abilities.
The last Ghoul's Lair Incident was all thanks to the help of Andeva friend.
Otherwise, I might not have been able to meet you all."
Cass gave high evaluations.
It was just that the higher the rating, plus the closer Cass' relationship with Han Dong seemed. Fia, who was sitting on the other side, became more jealous and even started to develop 'hostility' towards Han Dong, the kind of hostility that was unique between love rivals.
After the introduction, Han Dong also simultaneously removed his bird beak costume and pretended to smile.
In fact, Han Dong initially thought that he would only be meeting with Cass alone, not expecting that there would be other trainee knights here.
In light of the current scene, Han Dong thought to himself, The purpose of calling me here should not only be a bounty mission, it will most likely involve the [Destiny Space] in a week.
The purpose of calling me along on the bounty mission this time is to further understand my abilities.
Just because Cass trusts me, doesn't mean that the other members of the squad can trust.
Cass continued to turn to the squad members.
"Introducing my companions, these are the ones I experienced Destiny Space with."
Cass first pointed to the girl with wavy blonde hair.
From the three points of clothing, jewelry and flawless white skin, it was clear that she was born extraordinary and should be the eldest daughter of a certain family.
"Kate Sophia, three stars [Library], specializes in the Holy Light class, able to release healing spells multiple times, and can also be the main combatant when fighting monsters of the dark category."
Fia, still looking proud and 'jealous' was hard to dispel, just nodded with a smile out of politeness before averting her gaze.
Cass continued to introduce another, "Arnold Coslin, a three-star [Mechanical], a rare double knight!
Coslin he's not only good at mechanical engineering, but he's also talented at long-range sniping."
Coslin was more proactive.
However, his initiative wasn't in polite behavior.
There was no intention to shake hands with Han Dong, but instead, using the magnifying effect attached to the homemade "goggles" he wore, he carefully observed Han Dong from head to toe.
"Department of Mysteries, Plague Science?!"
Coslin seemed to have observed some fungus remaining on Han Dong's surface.
" Plague Science is good, and the trainee knights in the other directions of the occult are not very offensive, only Plague Science belongs to the more offensive category.
If there are any items that need to be crafted, you can contact me individually.
Small items are free, and I will charge internal prices for large items.
My craftsmanship can reach the level of a knight, just feel free to give me the materials."
Han Dong gave an awkward but polite smile.
A 'strange' person like Coslin, Han Dong had seen in his lifetime.
A young professor from the School of Mechanics at the university used to be as well, not paying any attention to etiquette at all, discussing very deep knowledge with others as soon as he came up, bragging about himself in passing.
Cass also seemed to see that the introductory session was slightly awkward, and was busy changing the topic to the main topic.
"Let's first determine the bounty mission for this time."
The special bounty list that had been carefully selected by Cass and unfolded on the tabletop belonged to the 'unclear category' but high difficulty quests, requiring at least three people to partner up to receive it.
'Bounty mission': a spooky incident in the streets of London.
Location: 37 London Street.
Two days ago, a vicious murder took place at the Baker family mansion at 37 London Street.
The family of six, including the owner, Marcellus Baker (a former trainee knight), all six members of the family were murdered in one night.
Also, 'evil spell' marks were found at the scene.
Local police officers immediately identified and arrested the killer, but it didn't end there.
A day after the murders, a local policeman [Lester. Alsop], after inspecting and cleaning up Building 37, died suddenly at home that night.
In addition, a number of residents living in the Baker neighborhood have reported seeing occasional 'ghosts' wandering the Baker mansion, mostly at night, some have even heard the ghosts' cries!
The incident has not yet been characterized by the Order or the local church.
It is first announced as a bounty mission, to the public, and will be executable for four days.
If no trainee knight takes it, or if there is a serious injury or death to a trainee knight who takes the mission, the Order will initiate an investigation.
Difficulty (predicted): three stars
Size (estimated): Medium (recommended for teams of three or more)
Duration: four days (leave from faculty may be waived for the duration of the assignment).
Conditions of Completion: ascertain the nature of the 'ghost' and fully resolve it, bring relevant evidence back to the Adventurer's Guild (during the investigation, if the nature of the incident is found to exceed the description of the bounty, collect the evidence and immediately contact the local church or chapter of the Order, you may voluntarily abandon the mission).
1. five hundred coins (if the difficulty of the event changes, the maximum bonus amount is raised by 100%)
2. material rewards (optional materials, homemade equipment, potions)
3. knight credits, 3 points for each member of the squad.
Note: 1. The event has a high probability of being 'contaminated', so be sure to wear [Goggles] and baptize with Holy Light at the local church before performing the mission.
2. After completing the mission, you must go to a local church or a law enforcement office or other legal pressure release place to release "pressure".
At the bottom of the bounty is a manually drawn 'evil spell' icon, as well as a hand-drawn portrait of a ghost based on the descriptions of nearby residents.
It is not the same as what people usually think of as a ghost.
The portrait depicted a humanoid creature wrapped in a white translucent gauze.
Judging from the figure, it was most likely a female, there were also some structures that resembled dead wood and tentacles looming at the bottom of the gauze.
