Chapter 14: The Queen's Temptation

On the day of the exam, suddenly there was a small rumor circulating throughout the academy and even the entire Storm City.

There is a rumor that the mysterious magician in the gladiatorial arena that day, after using space magic, gave Sarah ** in a mysterious place!

Jack also heard the news, but he didn't have any expression himself. This kind of thing has nothing to do with me, and I will never see the noblewoman again!

Dressed as a civilian, Jack went to the test center alone, ready to collect his 'test papers'.

According to the college's examination regulations, freshmen in the first year want to move on to the second year. You must take your own 'Star Palace Card' to complete the journey to 5 test centers. As long as you hand over the 'Star Palace Card' to the examiner at the 5th test center, you can advance to the second grade.

Star Palace Card, a set of 12 cards.

First-year students can complete the entire trip with their own card.

Year 2 students have to carry 3 cards, which means they have to grab cards from others on the road.

Students in the third grade must have 6 cards in order to advance to the fourth grade.

For fourth-grade students, 12 cards are required to upgrade.

Grade 5 students who want to advance to Grade 6 need 2 sets of 12 cards each.

Year 6 students, however, do not take such exams, they only maintain discipline in the examination room. Prevent cheating, prevent indiscriminate killing!

Although there are a large number of first-year 'card armies' on the road every year. But it's still not enough for the senior classmates to snatch. And those senior students, in order to ensure that they successfully pass the exam, often grab as much as they can. After all, there is a sky outside the sky, and it is inevitable that you will be robbed by others. It's still necessary to hide a little more reserves!

There are a total of 5 test centers and a total of 10 days to travel. It starts from the Rainbow Forest and goes all the way to the Elven Lake! There are 5 mage towers along the way, and each mage tower needs to be stamped by the students! Finally, when the exam is completed, the 'Star Palace Card' without 5 stamps is invalid.

Tens of thousands of people took the exam, and when it was Jack's turn to receive his cards, it was already more than 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

Just when waiting in line to receive your own 'Star Palace Card'. Lots of first-year rookies are looking to form a team. In dangerous situations, huddle for warmth is the best way to survive. Human beings have been social animals since ancient times, which is in line with human nature.

"It's a group, it's a group! A group of 100 people, the speed of coming is limited. "In order to pass the exam smoothly, people want to organize like the military. But the more such a large group, the easier it is to attract the attention of senior students. It looks like such a big ball, you are a behemoth. But on the savannah, a few lions can drive thousands of bison away.

Jack is not interested in such a supergroup. They are like a super fat sheep, as long as the senior classmates reach a tacit understanding to 'slaughter' together, then the 'Star Palace Card' is not easy to capture!

"A team of 20 people, 2 assassins, led by a friend from the 5th grade. "There was a team that wanted to use the strategy of helping out with senior friends to recruit people. But everything went smoothly on the road, but if it didn't go well, the members of these teams would become 'little sheep' in captivity by their senior classmates. They'll snatch their own cards at any time!

Jack wanted to find a small team of about 10 people, but until he got his star card, he couldn't find a suitable team. It's no wonder that Jack often doesn't appear in the academy, and when he does, it's only in the library. He didn't have many friends other than Dom. In exams like this, they are all friends and classmates who trust each other. No one wants to bring a stranger!

Those who get the star card can leave immediately. But unlike the others, Jack didn't set out for the forest right away, but found a nice hiding place at the edge of the rainbow forest, tidied up a bit, and then turned around and began to rest!

Jack didn't find a companion to team up with, and it seemed that he had to go alone. In order to avoid clashes with the large army, Jack decided to rest until late at night before hitting the road. The strategy for the future is to rest during the day and rush at night!

The number of people at the edge of the rainbow forest is getting smaller and smaller, and occasionally there are people who share Jack's thoughts, but as the night progresses. The last group also left the edge of the forest and headed down the main road into the forest.

When it was 12 o'clock in the evening, the branch on Jack's body that he used to hide suddenly moved a few times.

Jack crawled out of hiding and began to pack his bags. Picking up his backpack again, Jack embarks on his long journey of learning in this world.

For the ten kilometers that spread deep from the edge of the forest, Jack had been walking on the main road. There were no pedestrians on the road, only the occasional moonlight spilling from the sky, and the small animals in the forest that were alarmed by the sudden arrival of humans.

As Jack walked twenty kilometers along the road, he saw a bonfire in the distance. Looking through the telescope, the range was apparently 1,300 meters away from them. It seems that he is already on the edge of the big army.

Jack moved away from the main road and, following the direction of the compass, began to turn deeper into the forest. Fortunately, there are exams every year, and a lot of human activity makes the forests here not dense. You can't run, but you don't have any problems traveling fast.

Jack changed lanes and walked quickly for about two hours, and the sky was already starting to lighten. However, just as Jack stopped moving forward to eat something and drink some water to take a break, he keenly sensed the danger.

Because just when Jack stopped trot and stopped his body violently. I could clearly hear a crisp sound more than ten meters away behind me!

Sensing the danger, Jack turned to look at the path he had just run.

It was not yet dawn and visibility was limited. Jack didn't see the danger for the time being, but he was sure that he wasn't hallucinating, it was the sound of a branch being trampled on.

Jack doesn't have a sword on his body that can open teleportation. But he was armed with the only weapon he had in the world - a pistol! But Jack didn't pull out his gun immediately, but leaned his back against a big tree, if the opponent was an assassin, at least he wouldn't give the opponent a chance to sneak in behind, after all, Jack's own back didn't have long eyes.

Just when Jack was still looking for his target, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and then a gentle voice whispered in his ear: "Very alert magician, but unfortunately you still have to hand over your star card." An Assassin suddenly appeared with a dagger to Jack's neck and threatened him to hand over his card.

This is the embodiment of strength, although Jack can turn on the 30-second invincible DPS mode, but when he really wants to be one-on-one. He may not survive for 10 seconds!

Jack's reaction was still too slow, and it didn't take a few seconds from hearing the sound to being controlled. The opponent not only quickly smoothed the distance between the two, but also found the weak point of the attack.

"When did you catch your eye on me?" asked Jack with a smile as he glanced at the assassin next to him.

"It wasn't long before I was resting in the trees. I saw you running from a distance!" said the Assassin without concealment.

Because of the sharp dagger around his neck, Jack could only obediently take out his star card and hand it to the other party.

After getting his prey's card, the Assassin glanced at the pattern: "Pisces! More than a dozen star cards were taken out from it.

"This is just the beginning, you got so many star cards, you spent money?" Jack knew that there were some first-year rookies, they just registered for the exam, but they didn't set off, they sold their star cards early in the morning. This has led to many people who have already assembled a whole set of cards before they even set off!

Hearing his prey question his abilities, the assassin didn't say anything, just turned sideways slightly. Let Jack see the armband on his arm!

"Fifth year!Okay!Great!But there's a saying you've never heard?" just as the Assassin got what he wanted and was about to turn away. Jack asked suddenly.

"..."Talking to his prey, obviously the other party has no such thoughts.

"Wealth must not be exposed, you show off your star card like this. Aren't you worried about letting me rob you?" said Jack with a sudden smile as he looked at the assassin who had already turned around and walked a few meters.

The prey was robbed, and some were annoyed and scolded the street. There are those who are unwilling to hand over the star card and propose a duel with themselves. But I have never met the person who handed over the star card to himself in the front hand, and immediately thought about the star card in his bag.

"It's up to you, a first-year rookie! You think—" The Assassin wanted to say, do you think you're the mysterious magician in the Colosseum? That magician is wearing a first-year armband! But before the Assassin could finish his words, he suddenly felt his whole body go limp. The whole person doesn't even have the strength to stand!

Seeing the assassin suddenly collapse on the ground, Jack walked up to her with a slight smile and reached out to pull her mask off!

"Is it the weakness of the whole body? Is it the physical strength of the flesh that cannot be lifted? You don't even have the strength to raise your hand?" said Jack, spreading his right hand and shaking it in front of the assassin. In his right hand is a small transparent glass bottle with some pink powder inside!

"Despicable...", the Assassin recognized the powder, which was the most feared thing for the Assassins, especially the female Assassins!

"How's the temptation of the Elven Queen, how does it feel? This vial is worth ten thousand gold!, I'm not stingy with you!" said Jack with a wicked smile. This pink powder was bought by him in a brothel. This kind of thing is useless against humans. But for the elves, especially the assassins who have been taking elven fruit for a long time. Regardless of men and women, what they are most afraid of is this pink powder!
