Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

But if the remaining options of Knight or Wizard Apprentice were chosen, neither would be able to level up.

Obviously, having an extra two attribute points and two skill points would be much more attractive!

Thus, Rein silently chanted in his mind, "Beast Tamer!"

In an instant, two consecutive system prompts appeared:

[Congratulations, your Beast Tamer (Transcendent) profession level has increased!]

[Congratulations, your Beast Tamer (Transcendent) profession level has increased!]

Seeing the Beast Tamer (Transcendent) level jump from lv1 to lv3 (12/500) on the panel, Rein couldn't help but reveal a brilliant smile.

He continued to read on.

At the bottom of the panel, it showed remaining attribute points: 3, and remaining skill points: 4.

Among these, one skill point was left unallocated from the last level-up.

One battle had brought him three attribute points and three skill points; Rein felt that his journey to the Nightingale Forest was indeed the right decision!

Seeming to think of something, Rein suddenly looked up at the chained Evil Spirit in the next second.

His eyes were filled with fervor!

Next, due to the absence of a fourth Evil Spirit Knight.

The subsequent battles had no suspense.

After Rein killed the chained Evil Spirit Knight, the Riding Spear Evil Spirit Knight was also slain by the combined efforts of the three Temple Knights.

This time, Rein obtained a second crystal of evil energy, but by interpreting the solemn expressions of Rudolph and the other Temple Knights as they gazed at the crystal, Rein knew he probably wouldn't be able to absorb it on the spot.

"Rein, this kind of crystal containing massive amounts of evil energy will attract many evil forces. I suggest it would be better to leave it to our church to handle," said Rudolph, the presiding bishop, as he stepped forward to speak to Rein.

If it were anything else, Rein might have agreed.

But now, this object meant 'experience candy' to Rein, and naturally, there was no way he would hand it over to Rudolph. In fact, Rein was even considering if there was any way to trade for the Riding Spear Evil Spirit Knight's crystal.

"Bishop Rudolph, I would like to study it a bit. Please rest assured that if I can't handle it, I will contact the church immediately. Thank you for your concern," Rein tactfully refused.

Rudolph thought for a moment, apparently recalling Rein's explosive strength, and convinced that Rein had the ability to deal with any evil forces that might be drawn in, he nodded and agreed, "Well then, please make sure to keep it safe!"

After the battle ended, they counted the losses. Fortunately, two members of Flashgold Town's Night Watchmen were severely injured, but miraculously, none were killed.

In contrast, of the four Temple Knights, one was seriously injured, one slightly injured, with only two retaining their combat strength.

All these encounters with three Evil Spirit Knights, each not weaker than a Peak Knight, took place even before they had entered the temple ruins.

Therefore, as everyone gazed at the temple within reach, the mysterious and dilapidated temple seemed like a beast with its gaping maw open, waiting for them to unsuspectingly walk into.

At that moment, Matteo came forward with a worried look and reported, "Lieutenant, do we need to go in here?"

"Well..." Rein rubbed his chin, turning his head to look at Bishop Rudolph.

Rudolph touched the scroll in his chest, pondered for a moment, and then spoke, "Since we've come this far, it's still best that we investigate further to understand what exactly is hidden in this temple."

"This time, I've also brought a high-level Divine Arts scroll bestowed by the archbishop. I believe a safe retreat, for us, should still be no problem."

Rein's eyebrows rose.

A high-level Divine Arts scroll?

He had just seen Bishop Rudolph use two Divine Arts, which indeed, in combination with the Temple Knights, could produce tremendous power.

If there was a higher-level Divine Arts scroll, the dangers of the subsequent temple exploration should be relatively controllable.

Mainly because the Evil Spirit Knight monsters alone had provided him with an exceptionally generous 'experience pill' reward.

It was difficult not to have Rein anticipate whether there could be similarly bountiful, or even more generous 'experience treasures' within the temple.
