When Lin Hao stepped out of the silver light circle, he found himself in a completely different place—inside the stronghold of the Black Bull Knights.
"Space magic? So cool!" Lin Hao muttered to himself.
Indeed, space magic was extremely practical. But Lin Hao wasn't sure if his own space magic would allow him to travel anywhere at will. After all, before his time travel, he'd seen various animations where characters with similar abilities to move in space still had limitations. They needed to know the coordinates before they could move.
As Lin Hao stepped out of the silver light, he saw a dilapidated castle. The upper floors were lit, with several rooms glowing brightly.
"Welcome to the Black Bull Knights!" Yami said, with one hand behind his back, gazing at the castle with a satisfied smile.
Initially, when he went to examine the candidates, Yami had only planned to go through the motions, but he had unexpectedly found a gem in Lin Hao.
Lin Hao nodded, but suddenly, there was a loud bang.
The castle gates were blown away by a burst of flames.
Lin Hao's expression darkened, and he instinctively became alert. But when he saw Yami's indifferent reaction, his tension eased.
"What's going on here?" Lin Hao asked, curious.
Yami turned to Lin Hao with a strange smile.
Lin Hao paused, a bad feeling creeping up on him.
"Welcome to the worst Magic Knights—Black Bull!" Yami said, a grin spreading across his face.
"The worst Magic Knights?" Lin Hao frowned. Had he made a mistake from the very beginning?
"Yes," Yami said nonchalantly.
"Did the members blow up the gate?" Lin Hao asked.
"Yep, these bastards tear up the house if they're not fighting every day," Yami said, putting on a helpless expression.
Lin Hao frowned deeply. He had originally just wanted to find a more normal knight order, but now he found himself in the most chaotic one.
"Is it too late to regret now?" Lin Hao wondered aloud.
"Hahaha, what nonsense are you talking about? Even if you could regret it, do you think I'll let you go?" Yami patted Lin Hao on the shoulder.
Lin Hao sighed. "Forget it, I picked it myself, so now I'll crawl through it."
"Okay, let me take you to meet the other members of our group!"
Yami led Lin Hao toward the gate of the castle. Inside, chaos reigned.
One person, wearing glowing boots and surrounded by sparks of thunder and lightning, was dodging attacks from another person.
The castle was shaking with constant explosions. Some members were completely unfazed by the chaos. One short woman was devouring food like there was no tomorrow, seemingly oblivious to everything happening around her. Another member, reading his Grimoire, had a nosebleed pouring into his mouth while staring at a mirror. There was also a girl in a bikini lounging on a sofa, and a fat man by the wall puffing smoke from his pipe.
Seeing this scene, Lin Hao's face stiffened. Is this really a knight group? It's like a high-end version of a mess!
The destruction was top-notch.
"Oh, another fight?" Finral said, sounding tired.
Yami frowned, his arm glowing with purple light.
"You bastards! Don't break everything!" Yami shouted.
Then, with a swift motion, he swung a hammer, sending a wall collapsing.
Lin Hao raised an eyebrow. I just thought I could swat a mosquito, but now it feels like I could swat a fly with ease... This whole group is crazy!
Lin Hao almost wanted to cry.
At that moment, the rest of the members noticed the commotion and rushed over.
"Captain?"
Soon, everyone swarmed Yami.
"Work hard, Captain Yami!"
"Hey, this is delicious, how about I give you half?"
"Commander, welcome back!"
"Captain Yami, did you meet some wild kid who doesn't know his place? If so, I'll take care of him!"
"Captain, come fight with me today!"
Yami's face darkened. "You guys are so noisy!"
At his words, the group immediately knelt down in unison.
"Sorry!" they all said in chorus.
"I brought the newcomer here. This handsome guy is another new member. Uh, what's your name?" Yami asked.
"Lin Hao," Lin Hao replied.
"Finral, introduce the team!" Yami ordered.
"Yes, let me introduce them properly," Finral responded. He pointed to a tall, gloomy man. "This is Gordon Agrippa. He looks gloomy, but he's a good guy."
Next, he pointed to the woman in the bikini. "This is Vanessa Enoteca. She causes trouble when she's drunk, but she's a good person at heart."
(For the sake of brevity, I'll summarize the rest of the introductions in the work! Otherwise, it could become a bit tedious to read.)
After Finral finished introducing the members, Yami added, "There are a few others who are either on missions, on vacation, or just being lazy. Let's try to get along well with everyone."
Lin Hao nodded. "In the coming days, I'll teach you all a lot."
"Alright, that's enough for now. Just don't kill me," Yami ordered.
"Swipe!"
Magna jumped to her feet, eager.
Magna was slightly shorter than Lin Hao, with purple hair and a ridiculous upside-down style. Her tone was passionate and a bit reckless.
Lin Hao responded, "Did you hear that? Captain Yami said we should all adjust. Of course, I'll be doing just that."
"Oh, Magna forgot to mention," Yami added, "this guy is no lightweight!"
Yami smoked a cigarette and walked toward the sofa.
