My Cell Prison-Chapter 358 - : Library
Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Library
For an average Apprentice Knight.
If one manages to survive in the dangerous Fate Space, they would usually take at least a week to rest and recuperate.
Apprentice Knights like Han Dong who immediately continue studying at the [Library] after only a night’s sleep are quite rare.
But that’s inevitable.
Since Han Dong has chosen this unusual auxiliary course, he must spend more time than most, not to mention he also has some activities outside the city.
……
En route to the [Library] in his private carriage.
“After basic magic introduction at the library, find a suitable time to leave the city again.
The materials sent last time should be enough for Dr. Swollen to use for more than twenty days, and the basic facilities have all been set up.
When I return after my magic introduction, I could ask the Crowman Elder for some unique magical knowledge.
In passing, try to find a way to revive the head nurse and find an assistant for Dr. Swollen.
I have to say, this harvest was really plentiful…”
Han Dong took out from his pocket the core spotlight he had obtained from [Lamp Man- Kinoshita Souichiro]. This item solidified Han Dong’s feeling for a ‘long-term’ plan to create a special weapon.
Fate Material – ‘Source of the Lighthouse (Lamp Tube)’
Quality: Epic
Category: Light Magic Material
Effect: Provides a unique ‘Strong Light’ attribute.
When made into a weapon: Provides substantial augmentation to the light attribute, and a unique strong light skill.
When made into an ornament: Increases the wearer’s light magic damage, and grants the ability ‘Searchlight’, which can dispel environmental elements that obstruct the field of view, such as mist and darkness, that are not higher than the material’s grade. It has significantly weakened effects against elements higher than the material’s grade.
When ‘forging’ using other materials of the same quality, an unexpected fusion effect might occur; the light attribute inherent to the material itself is more likely to catalyze the related reaction during the forging process.
In special cases, the classification of the light source attribute can be modified (e.g. dark light), depending on the requirements of the craftsman.
……
Epic material.
It’s the highest quality Han Dong has seen so far.
But simply relying on a single material obviously can’t create suitable gear. Han Dong plans to rent all the nodes for two years, and then use all his points to exchange for epic materials all at once.
At that time, he will use his ‘influence’.
To ask for some valuable materials from outside the city from the Crowmen, or to get some hidden materials via Mr. Black-White.
In Han Dong’s view.
Mixing chaos materials from outside the city with Fate materials to make equipment might make it more suitable for him.
Once the materials are ready, he can use the channel of the blacksmith, Winry, to make her or some other more senior blacksmith forge it.
As for what kind of gear to make, Han Dong always has a clear idea…a special target for the mixture of Mysticism and the library.
……
Occupation name: [Library]
Compared to the other four occupations, this one has a particularly unique name.
Most abilities granted by it are skewed toward magic.
But it is wrong to merely classify these knights as mages.
Because the term ‘mage’ is too narrow. Only ‘Library’ can fully encapsulate it.
Common Holy Light Priest, Elementalist, Necromancer, and Alchemist all come from the library.
At the same time, there are some unknown occupations within, like Demon Sorcerer, Abjurer, Battle Mage, etc.
The internal divisions of the [Library] among the five major careers are the most extensive.
It is the main reason why many freshmen choose the library. The great changeability allows everyone to find their suitable path during the learning process more easily.
Its popularity is topped only by the Cross Crusader.
Additionally, due to the uniqueness of the library and the establishment of the reading room as a school-level public facility, the [Library] is the largest among the five major faculties.
Also, because of the preciousness of the books stored within the library, the security measures of the library are top-tier.
Even students of the same faculty need to verify their knight badges to access all areas on campus, and they also need to show approved documents when going to certain specific areas.
As for external department students, they cannot enter library territory without special permission.
“Wow… is this the territory of the [Library]? The security is really tight.”
The carriage rented by Han Dong was warned not to proceed further when it was one kilometer away from the territory.
As he got out of the carriage.
He could see the library’s iconic building — the ‘Giant Pyramid’
There are nine Giant Pyramids encompassing the Academy.
The pyramids are interconnected with each other to form a closed barrier that only allows passage when it recognizes the knight badge of a student from the faculty.
The first time you force your entry, you will be repulsed by the barrier.
The second time will activate the pyramid and trigger a destructive magical spell.
Each of the teachers within the library has a piece of jewelry called ‘Eye of the Obelisk’. With this item, they can monitor the area outside the pyramid at any time.
“Nicholas… over here!”
In no time, Mr. Dumps, the handsome brother wearing a single copper mirror, walked through the barrier and waved at Han Dong.
In his hand, he held a temporary pass already arranged for Han Dong, but it would still be troublesome for Han Dong to enter and exit the library in the long run.
Today, Han Dong came to secure a long-term pass in advance.
“Come with me… You have [3] points allocated to the Library so the teachers should not bother you.”
On hearing that Han Dong had gained three Fate Points in a single Fate event, Dumps was surprisingly not shocked… In his view, it’s just Han Dong being Han Dong.
As soon as he stepped into the barrier holding the temporary pass.
A magical academy that could only be seen in fantasy movies appeared in front of Han Dong.
In the spacious garden area, various plant people chatted just like normal people,
Various colorful butterflies that could summon layers of thin mist in the sky were fluttering around,
Many ‘watermen’ gathered near the centre fountain in the garden, lining up to draw Life Water using cups of a limited size,
There were quite a few students majoring Water and Plant, as well as Holy Light series students, freely practicing in this area.
This is much more lively compared to the Mysterious Area.
“This is the [Life Garden Area], located to the east of the library.
Already set up in the centre is the [Main Library Building], also known as the Magic Headquarters. Around it, ‘9’ special areas of different attributes are planned out. The current Life Garden is just one of them.”
“Where are we going now?”
“We are going directly to the [Main Library Building]. I’ve already mentioned your matter to Vice President Hera… She has agreed to meet with you.
Don’t worry, I have a good relationship with Vice President Hera. So you just need to relax during the conversation.
As long as there aren’t too many conflicts of interest, giving you a student pass should not be a problem.”
While discussing Lady Hera, Dumps made a subtle finger flick to let Han Dong understand the implication.
