"A fanatical evil organization that advocates destruction. Whenever they appear, they will surely bring disaster and misfortune."
"Is it so serious?"
"You haven't seen them. Although the members of the Twilight Society are few, they are all madmen." Han Meng recalled being manipulated by [Plum Blossom 8] and his eyes grew colder.
"Were the incidents in Districts 3, 5, and 6 also caused by them?" Chen Yifei began to probe indirectly.
"... Probably not." Han Meng shook his head. "They can't actively summon the Gray Realm. That's the means of the Crimson Heaven Sect..."
"Then what disasters and misfortunes have they brought to the Aurora Realm?"
Chen Yifei tried to make his tone sound purely innocent... so that Han Meng wouldn't think he was probing for more information about the Twilight Society, but Han Meng was clever and still detected that hint of abnormality.
He stared at Chen Yifei for a long time, did not answer his question, but said seriously,
"Chen Yifei, you'd better not have any curiosity about this organization, and don't have any form of contact with them... They are very dangerous and skilled at brainwashing. You just need to know that once you encounter members of the Twilight Society, stay as far away from them as possible, understand?"
Unfortunately, a new member of the Twilight Society was sitting right before you.
Seeing that Han Meng had already said this much, Chen Yifei didn't dare to ask further and nodded calmly.
"In short, Districts 5 and 6 suffered extremely heavy damage. According to incomplete statistics, more than three thousand people have lost their lives in this disaster. Coupled with the annihilation of the enforcer team, these two major districts are considered ruined... Even though the Aurora City urgently dispatched enforcers to fill the vacancies, there are still not enough people."
"So they advanced the opening time of the Ancient Relic of the Way of War, wanting to quickly recover?"
"That's right."
After three years of becoming an enforcer, one has the opportunity to enter the Ancient Relic of the Way of War and has a probability of being chosen by the Divine Path to become an enforcer... Opening the ancient relic early means that a new batch of enforcers, although only first-order, can be obtained in a short period of time.
"This time, there are a total of seventy enforcers dispatched from the seven major districts, plus those dispatched from within Aurora City... You need to take a ship across the Frozen Sea to reach the outermost edge of the Aurora Realm. The Ancient Relic of the Way of War is there.
At the same time, three enforcers from Aurora City will lead the team and be responsible for protecting your safety."
"What does the Ancient Relic of the Way of War look like?"
"The Ancient Relic of the Way of War is very large, but the area for your trial only occupies a small part. You'll know when you get there."
Han Meng glanced at the time and said calmly,
"It's not early. Rest early and conserve some energy...
Also, if you encounter some... things in the ancient relic, don't be too timid. You are an enforcer from our District 3. Even if you cause some trouble, I'll cover for you...
Don't disgrace our District 3."
Hearing this, Chen Yifei was startled. Before he could ask anything, Han Meng turned and left.
Chen Yifei carefully pondered Han Meng's last sentence just now. It seemed to be hinting at something? Maybe... this was the purpose of his special visit today?
Chen Yifei thought for a moment, then shook his head, turned around, lay on the bed, and his consciousness gradually sank into his dreams.
...
"Damn... Can't you just let me have a good dream?"
Chen Yifei opened his eyes, saw the spotlight above his head, and sighed in his heart.
After the dream last night, Chen Yifei almost thought that maybe he wouldn't have to "report" to the theater every night in the future and could sleep soundly... Unexpectedly, he was still back.
Chen Yifei rose from the stage and walked straight to the screen, pressing the button for the treasure chest in the corner.
After completing the first act last time, he still had one designated role draw opportunity left unused. Now, as he was about to set off for the Ancient Martial Path, it would always be good to have an extra skill for self-defense.
As the impassioned music played, Chen Yifei turned and walked to the table. With countless cards flying, they finally landed neatly, face down, on the table.
"Please write down the name of the character you wish to draw on the paper," a line of small text appeared on the paper.
Chen Yifei held the blank paper in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally wrote down two characters:
Han Meng.
Since it was a designated role, Chen Yifei naturally chose the one with the highest limit. Among those around him, only Chu Muyun and Han Meng were the owners of divine paths. Compared to the [Medical Divine Path], the [Martial Divine Path] was definitely better at combat... at least, that was how he felt.
Moreover, since Chen Yifei already had a [Dance of Slaughter], another skill from the Martial Divine Path would be even more suitable... if possible, Chen Yifei even wanted to replicate the entire [Trial] path.
In that case, would he be considered as someone who practiced both the Thespian Divine Path and the Martial Divine Path?
As the two characters "Han Meng" appeared on the paper, all the cards on the table disappeared, leaving only twelve cards lined up in a row. These were all the skills possessed by Han Meng, and one of the cards was gray and could not be selected.
According to Chen Yifei's knowledge, Han Meng was a Four-Stripe Enforcer, which corresponded to the fourth stage of the Martial Divine Path...
Among these twelve cards, only four were blue divine path skill cards, while the rest should be ordinary skills like "Cooking" and "Tracking". The one that could not be selected should be the [Dance of Slaughter] that Chen Yifei already had.
A one-in-three chance... no, the screen said there would be a boost based on the total audience expectation from the previous act.
Chen Yifei rubbed his hands, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose one of the cards.
"Skill: [Trial Court]"
"Attribution: Martial Divine Path, [Trial] Path, Fourth Stage;"
"Character: Han Meng."
Here it comes!
Seeing this skill, Chen Yifei immediately recalled the scene where Han Meng fought against the red paper monster and shattered its body with three shots.
If there were no surprises, this was one of the core skills of the [Trial] path.
As Chen Yifei absorbed the card, all the information about this skill immediately emerged in his mind. Different from the [Dance of Slaughter], this was an area-type skill that would consume the user's mental energy when released...
Speaking of which, whether it was [Formlessness] or [Mystic Eyes], Chen Yifei didn't feel any burden when using them. But just using the [Dance of Slaughter] for a dozen seconds would make him extremely exhausted.
"Skills from the first to the third stage are all released based on physical fitness, while those above the fourth stage consume mental energy..." Chen Yifei pondered.
He wondered if his current first-stage mental energy could support him in using the [Trial Court] once?
