After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 741 - 513, news of the new team member, the Pink Crow

Chapter 741: 513, news of the new team member, the Pink Crow

The five council members all froze.

This black-haired man with a small braid and rough skin, looking as though he’d just emerged from underground mining—how could he possibly be the genteel and widely praised “Eye of True Knowledge”?

Shu Li compared the two, but couldn’t see how Lin Da might be “Eye of True Knowledge.”

Slaying the demon cadres Lady Bai Mian, Sani, the Green-faced Beast brothers, ranking 86th on the Light List… A torrent of terrifying achievements flashed through his mind.

“You’re ranked 86th on the Light List?” Shu Li asked, dumbfounded.

Lin Da shrugged nonchalantly: “If you’re referring to ‘Eye of True Knowledge,’ then yes, that’s me.”

Seeing Shu Li’s stunned expression, Taige laughed heartily: “Rank 86 on the Light List? That was half a year ago…”

“Alright, shut up unless you’re asked,” Lin Da interrupted.

If this continued, his entire history would be exposed.

Much like Shu Li distrusting him, Lin Da felt no trust toward the unfamiliar faces within White Dove United either.

Upon hearing Lin Da’s name, Shu Li and the others fell silent.

Among those ranked in the top 100 of the Light List were monsters with the potential to reach Heaven Rank, utterly untouchable for mere “Low-Level Light Ranks” like them.

The Light Ranks made up over half of Ice Abyss, but those who had spent a year cultivating there without raising their levels much or comprehending any Rule Fragments often mocked themselves as Low-Level Light Ranks.

In contrast, the three leaders of White Dove United advanced from Moon Rank to Light Rank within the year and had grasped their own Laws—these were called Upper-Level Light Ranks.

It was somewhat akin to the distinction between the “Shodro” and “Brahmin” classes of the impoverished and aristocrats.

Shu Li now suddenly realized: Lin Da wasn’t just some fellow Shodro, he was a Brahmin of Special Light Rank!

It was normal for aristocrats like the Shodro to admire the Brahmin, but Shu Li couldn’t shake the feeling that when Lin Da held Lia’s hand, perhaps his purpose wasn’t limited to healing…

No one reassured Shu Li. Upon hearing Lin Da’s name, Tolu and the other four council members had their doubts dispelled.

White Dove United was in desperate need of strong individuals, and Lin Da’s leadership joining them was nothing short of a miracle in troubled times.

…

Through Aiko’s narration, Lin Da grasped the crux of the situation.

“Indeed, it’s a bit of trouble.”

Lin Da half-closed his eyes, his fingers lightly tapping the table.

The conflict between White Dove United and Dark Rose centered around the cultivation rooms.

High-grade cultivation rooms could vastly accelerate one’s comprehension of Laws, shortening years or even decades of arduous effort.

Among adventurers, there was a general consensus: if one failed to break through to Heaven Rank before the age of 40, the chances of comprehending Laws were significantly diminished.

Younger adventurers had stronger spiritual power, which made it much easier to perceive the Law Runes within the spatial realm.

As such, even prodigies like Volgan and Romanli had to find ways to seize higher-grade cultivation rooms.

It’s worth mentioning that a Light Rank adventurer with level but no Rule Fragments would be considered a “sham Light Rank.” For example, a level 59 adventurer without a single condensed Rule Fragment would only invite ridicule.

Lin Da’s Mystical Points couldn’t be exchanged for Rule Fragments either.

But he had decent innate insight, combined with the blessing skill “[World Tree Goddess’ Blessing]” that increased luck, allowing him to seize several “[Miracles]” on the 25th floor…

Through the meeting, Lin Da had gained a preliminary understanding of the factions and rank hierarchy within Ice Abyss.

Teachers were split into external instructors like Tannis, who signed his leave authorization—typically Extreme Moon Rank.

Next were formal instructors, most of whom were around level 55 at Light Rank.

Head instructors were exclusively Ultimate Light Tier.

Commanders were Sacred Rank.

Commanders-in-Chief were Heaven Rank!

As for the students, they were roughly split half and half between Moon Rank and Light Rank, with only a handful of near-graduates reaching Sacred Rank.

Armed with this knowledge, Lin Da felt more emboldened.

Currently, Dark Rose was preparing to annex White Dove United. The stakes were three Class-A cultivation rooms, plus 30,000 cultivation points.

If they lost, selling White Dove United wouldn’t even cover the stakes.

The members would either end up mining underground.

Or they’d have to join Dark Rose and become its puppets.

“The leaders of Dark Rose—Dark Blade, Giant, Scar—aren’t they precisely the Mysterious Ten Stars I’ve been looking for?”

Lin Da squinted playfully.

Even if they didn’t come to him, he would go seek them out.

Moreover, he was quite interested in cultivation points.

If he won, the cultivation rooms would go to White Dove United, while the 30,000 points would be his—there shouldn’t be any issue with that.

In the game, the Mystic Realm Key that could help players obtain a Law Core, “[Sea Secret Key],” was priced at 298 coins.

Converted into cultivation points, it’d definitely be worth quite a lot.

The more points saved, the better prepared he’d be.

Lin Da sighed inwardly—the disparity after the Ice Abyss instance manifested in Another World was just staggering.

The factions, instructors, head instructors, Commanders, Commanders-in-Chief, minute details on the signs above the snow huts—all exceedingly intricate. In contrast, the game only offered nineteen levels, each rewarding cultivation points, which players would then exchange for items at the Treasure Vault—none of the convoluted intricacies.

In the council hall, upon seeing Lin Da’s composed demeanor, Shu Li couldn’t help retorting:

“Dark Rose’s leader, [Scar] Oren, ranks 27th on the Light List—he’s undeniably the strongest Second-year student and the top candidate for graduation!”

“Hm, I understand,” Lin Da nodded. “The match is tomorrow at noon? It’s getting late—everyone should go rest.”

Shu Li was taken aback: “That’s so careless! Can you even sleep?”

“What else? No matter how much we discuss, it all comes down to strength in the end.”

After the meeting, Lin Da and his group, led by Lia, headed to their residence.

“Oru, your walking posture…?”

“Bad luck—I got hit by the demons’ Dark Corruption,” Oru said, scratching his head helplessly. “Fortunately, my life isn’t in danger, but adventuring beyond the 30th floor, I might not be able to join Lia and the others.”
