A temporary steward from the cemetery?

“Can’t be, every new student is paired with a corresponding steward, right?” Han Dong asked curiously.

“Correct, our responsibilities as the Cemetery Managers Committee include welcoming apprentice knights, as well as maintaining the environment and basic security on the inner island.”

“Cemetery Managers Committee…”

Han Dong tried to accept it all as he followed the cemetery steward towards the main building.

“The body’s surface shows clear signs of livor mortis, with parts visibly rotting. Clearly, the body is in a ‘dead’ state without the activity of blood cells, yet it can perform normal physiological activities?

If I had the chance and equipment, I’d love to observe their cell structure.”

Because of limitations in experimental equipment, Han Dong couldn’t conduct normal cell research.

Once he had enough funds and understood the scientific technology of Holy City, he planned to undertake in-depth biological research on these strange, magical creatures.

During the journey to the main building, the cemetery steward explained some basic information about the Mysterious Department.

“The main building of the Mysterious Department – the Dark Moon Tower, was remodeled and expanded by Mr. Black White, the department head and Chief of Staff of the ‘Plague Knights’ thirty years ago.

The ‘Dark Moon’ conceals the tower and the surrounding annexes, making it the tallest building in the National Royal Academy of Knights.

It is divided into four major areas, with 14 important zones.” “The Plague Knights, Chief of Staff!?”

This was the second knight regiment Han Dong had heard of.

Moreover, a position like ‘Chief of Staff’ was most likely second in command in a knight regiment, indicating its high rank.

The cemetery steward said with pride:

“While the Plague Knights may not be the strongest of the thirteen knight regiments, they are an indispensable special group. Mr. Black White’s presence is of immense importance to the whole Holy City.”

“Ah… the thirteen knights regiments huh? No wonder Barton Fogs wanted to pull me into the Black Rose Knight Squad when he found out I passed the four-star rookie event.

The steward continued:

“With the Dark Moon Tower as the main building, the Mysterious Department has four major divisions – the Dark Moon Forest, Large Cemetery, Old Sewers and Dead Water Marsh.

Each division has its own purpose, which you will come to know in time.

A special reminder for you though, be careful if you venture into the Old Sewers and the Dead Water Marsh. Careless entry may pose a danger to your life.’

“Got it.”

Han Dong had a general understanding of the territory of the Mysterious Department.

“May I ask, won’t you become ghouls living in the cemetery?”

The steward smiled and answered: “Under the protection of the ‘Dark Moon’ , we are free from any disturbances from outside the city walls…”

“Dark Moon.”

Han Dong looked up.

A black moon resembling an eclipse hung in the sky (with the central part

black and only a white halo outlining the round edge)

The Dark Moon concealed everything in the Mysterious Department from the outside world, also completely blocking the thought influences radiated by higher life forms beyond the city walls.

After half an hour of walking through the cemetery,

they finally arrived at a side door of the Dark Moon Tower, sealed by a heavy black iron gate. Turn the valve,

Open the gate,

Not a tower hall crowded with apprentice knights.

An elevator room.

More than a dozen old elevators are set here.

Each elevator corresponds to different levels and areas.

In addition, you need to enter a sequence number on the copper key panel for the elevator to work properly.

“The elevator is a fast, safe way to move around within the tower.

It can help you bypass some dangerous areas and get directly to where you want to go… I suggest that after you sign up, make sure to memorize the various sequence numbers for the elevator in a short time. It will save you a lot of trouble.

“Okay.”

The elevator stopped around the middle area of the tower.

The cemetery steward did not want to lead the way, instead gesturing:

“Ahead is the temporary gathering room for apprentice knights. Once you enter, you will hand in your test tools.

After all the apprentice knights’ tests for this period are over, the test results will be announced inside, along with self introductions and tutor selection.”

“Thank you.”

Tutor selection.

As an associate professor and master student tutor at a university, Han Dong knew what tutor selection meant.

After the graduate students are admitted, the faculty and the students who passed the exam this year sit in a meeting room.

They will hold discussions on academics and personal interests, and finally, students will choose their tutors based on their personality and interests.

“Let’s see.”

Han Dong knew nothing about the teachers in the Mysterious Department.

All he knew was Mr. Black White, the department head mentioned by the steward… Being mentored by someone at the dean’s level wasn’t easy.

Creak-

He pushes open the ebony door at the end of the corridor.

Alarge round table conference room is revealed.

It’s a two-tier design.

A chandelier with hundreds of branches hung at the top. Its shape resembled a human arm, with the palm holding a candle.

The first floor is where the apprentice knights sit around a huge black stone round table that can accommodate sixty students. Records for each student are left on the table so everyone can find their seat.

The design of the second floor is rather strange, with over a dozen seats embedded in the wall for the teachers to sit in the air.

Over twenty apprentice knights had already gathered there.

Most of them had European features, all with the same white skin even though their hair colours varied.

In addition, most of their clothing and accessories symbolized that they were not commoners, but young people from middle to high-class families, like

Edward.

In such a context, Han Dong’s commoner attire stood out.

Of course, everyone who could come here was an apprentice knight who had passed multiple tests. No one would judge by appearances, at most they would whisper about Han Dong’s physical fitness.

However, it’s hard to find a student without obvious bodily injuries like Han Dong.

Most students were injured or even seriously injured in the tests arranged by the Mysterious Department.

Han Dong placed the iron box corresponding to the test in a groove on the table… With the sound of gears turning, the iron box sank down to be checked by the relevant department.

Most people were dissatisfied with the dangerous tests given by the Mysterious Department and complained about it.

For instance, a male student sitting next to Han Dong.

He had a large wound on his waist, the blood flow was stopped by a special method, and he used a special stitching method with one hand to stitch up the blood vessels and skin injury himself.

Of course, he complained continually during the stitching process.

“Such individual tests are different from group work in Fate… it is indeed very dangerous if one’s abilities are not up to standard..”
