The ball was very small, easily fitting in his palm.

Of course, the part connected to the gate was an exception.

But generally speaking, even if only a small part of it was exposed, the dream would still consider the object to be within his palm.

Although he couldn't be certain, how would he know if he didn't give it a try?

Rode wasted no time and held the small ball in both hands, intertwining his thumbs to form a lightning symbol.

In the next moment, his vision blurred and his soul soared into the air.

In the fleeting moment of light and darkness, the faint mist in the dream reappeared before his eyes.

He opened his palm and the shiny metal ball was neatly cut off from the part connected to the gate. The cut was smooth as a mirror, revealing the intricate silver structure inside.

It actually worked?

Rode didn't have time to be overjoyed. He quickly returned to the material world and saw the spiritual energy dissipating in all directions from the steel gate, soon disappearing without a trace.

Rode pushed with force and the door opened a crack.

He immediately rushed in and arrived in a warehouse.

The moment he entered, Rode saw a rusty broken sword placed on a stone platform. It looked like a precious treasure.

This novel is available on "pawread dot com".

A strong attraction emanated from it.

Rode lightly touched it and instantly felt a scorching sensation piercing into his soul.

His vision blurred and he saw countless streams of spiritual energy rushing towards him. A voice filled with sorrow echoed in his ears, "The Northern Barrier has been breached! Darkness descends! Darkness descends!"

The vision disappeared in an instant and Rode's vision returned to normal.

Looking at the broken sword again, it had turned into powder.

But two symbols appeared on the back of his hand, one was a regular seventeen-sided polygon, representing the Dream House.

The other was a black ghost symbol with an open mouth, revealing incomplete teeth, as if it wanted to devour something.

Is this a new building?

Rode didn't think much about it. There were already some unusual sounds coming from outside. The abnormal destruction of the steel gate had triggered an alert, and he had to escape quickly.

Rode looked around and saw that this warehouse seemed to be mainly used to store the broken sword. There weren't many other things, only five boxes.

Then he randomly grabbed a few things.

Rode opened a wooden box nearby and found pure white stones that seemed to emit a solidified soft light.

These were Sun Stones!

A whole box of Sun Stones!

Rode immediately grabbed two handfuls and sent them into the dream. When he came back, it seemed that no one had come down yet, so he grabbed two more handfuls.

Soon, the entire box of Sun Stones was sent into the dream by Rode, but he still didn't see any figures.

Frequent entry and exit from the dream made him a little dizzy, but his ecstatic mood remained unchanged. Rode immediately opened the second box, and a red light illuminated his face.

It was a box of red jade.

Perfect, the Book of Knowledge needs it, so I don't have to spend money to buy it.

But in a moment, Rode sent another box of red jade into the dream.

Opening the third box, a dazzling silver light burst out, almost blinding his eyes.

After he finally adapted to it, he realized that it was actually a box of real silver!

Real silver was a very expensive material. In a real silver bullet, there was only about one-fifth of a gram of real silver, worth seven silver coins.

This box of real silver probably weighed half a ton.

Rode joyfully moved all the real silver into the dream.

The fourth box contained Soul Red Crystals. Rode endured the intense pain tearing through his spirit and moved them all into the dream.

The fifth box contained many red potions. Rode didn't hesitate and stuffed them all into the dream, even though the intense pain couldn't suppress his ecstatic mood.

At this moment, footsteps suddenly rushed up the stairs, and a voice shouted, "Quick! The intruder is still in the treasure vault! Don't let him escape!"

Hehe, brothers, you're too late.

With a thought, the fourth star, Spirit Boat, emitted a faint light.

[Spirit Boat Ferry]

With a light movement, the mist-like Spirit Boat lifted him up.

However, he was currently underground, so if he wanted to go to the surface, he could only fly along the stairs.

This might be a bit difficult.

Rode focused all his attention and was about to forcefully fly out when the Spirit Boat suddenly surged upwards.

In the instant it collided with the wall, Rode's vision blurred and the world suddenly became colorful, with countless blocks of colors piled up in a chaotic manner.

Is this the Spirit Realm?

Before Rode could react, in the next moment, his vision returned from the Spirit Realm, and he found himself in the alley outside the mansion, exactly where he had intended to arrive in his consciousness.

So the Spirit Boat had this function?

Rode was extremely surprised. He originally thought it was just a flying skill that consumed a lot of spiritual energy and had a time limit.

He didn't expect it to be able to travel through the Spirit Realm.

Rode knew that the positions in the Spirit Realm were chaotic, and it was difficult for non-Spirit Realm creatures to travel within it.

And the Spirit Boat, which could do this, was definitely not useless.

Haha, I didn't expect the fourth star to be so useful. From now on, what can stop me if I want to run away? I can go wherever I want.

Rode was overjoyed in his heart. He was about to fly directly back to the academy when he suddenly felt dizzy in his mind, almost causing him to fall from mid-air.

Is the spiritual energy depleted?

Rode could hardly believe it. With just this little distance, his spiritual energy was exhausted?

But his withered and agonizing soul told him that this was not an illusion.Rode could only use the "Awakening" and kept imagining his dormitory in his mind.

Sure enough, the spirit boat entered the spirit world again, speeding towards an unknown direction.

When Rode returned to the material world once again, he finally returned to his dormitory that he had been away from for dozens of days.

Without time to do anything, Rode fell into a deep sleep.

Meanwhile.

In the upper city district.

At the White Iron Mansion.

Manolobana looked at his empty warehouse, feeling as if his heart was about to split open.

"Perhaps, it's time," he murmured.

"We must extinguish their hope."

The next day, Rode found Raisin and Aeg, who were almost frantic, and handed over the crystal of image recording.

Both of them were almost moved to tears.

When Rode turned his head at that moment, Aeg almost went crazy. He was discovered by someone accidentally later and had to withdraw.

The two met at the entrance of the academy, waiting for four hours without seeing Rode.

Just when they were extremely worried, they bumped into him back at the secret branch base.

At that moment, both of them thought they were hallucinating.

However, they also knew that Rode's spark was strange and he had many abilities, so they weren't too curious.

After verifying the content of the crystal, they were very happy. Although the conversation in the crystal image was very brief, it was enough to prove that Manolobana was deliberately trying to cause destruction.

He had violated the prohibition of the Supreme Council.

So, Raisin and Aeg immediately took a leave of absence and took the crystal to the Internal Affairs Judgement Office.

Manolobana was their archenemy, and they had long decided to bring him down.

The reason they didn't bring Karamon was that they thought his intelligence was too low, and bringing him might cause trouble. They preferred to do it themselves.

Thus, this short operation ended, and the follow-up matters were all handled by Raisin and Aeg.

Rode had gained a huge harvest and officially returned to the academy, back to the secret base.

Although the Sword Gate operation suffered heavy losses, the secret branch was not affected at all.

During the dozens of days they were out, the training in the base had been on track, and several teams had been sent out to carry out military tasks.

Some teams returned unscathed, while others suffered heavy losses just like them.

But the headmaster Vila and the secret leader Kalia were not moved. The purpose of the secret branch was to let students with combat talent grow in brutal battles. The more than 300 students in the base knew their fate.

They could refuse.

They could also quit after entering.

But so far, no one had done so.

What they had to do every day was to train, learn, and fight, without thinking about anything else.

The results were indeed very significant. Many students had made leaps and bounds in their growth, especially those who had returned from dangerous combat missions. Some even awakened new special talents.

This proved that the secret branch plan was very effective.

Among all the missions, the Sword Gate operation was the largest in scale, with the most personnel, the longest battle, and the heaviest losses. Although it involved the Doomsday Cult, making the whole thing complicated, it did not affect the growth of the students.

The seven survivors all made great progress, and Rode was undoubtedly the most shocking among them. His spiritual power had increased at least fourfold.

He had to upgrade his spiritual power level. The second-level spiritual power level was no longer suitable for his spiritual power intensity.

However, when Vila was preparing to apply for his upgrade materials, he was shocked to find that Rode had become a criminal. Until his guilt was cleared, all personal allocations were not allowed to be issued.

Vila didn't want to delve into the problem. In the review of the Sword Gate operation, it was clear that they had encountered too many unexpected strong enemies. The death of three excellent teachers was extremely regrettable, and the premature death of the students was even more painful. But they would not die in vain, the survivors would carry on their will to fight.

The seven students who survived from the Sword Gate will digest what they have gained in the upcoming special training and achieve real transformation.

But on the eve of the special training, Vila was shocked to find that Rode's tag in the secret branch had become "Strong · Combat Personnel".

This meant that he would receive the top special training with the top students.

Although his performance at the Sword Gate was very impressive, he was still a long way from the top students, let alone the "top" who were good at growing in battles.

These superhumans had almost no weaknesses. At the same level of spiritual power, they were almost the strongest.

And Rode not only had a huge weakness, but his spiritual power level was also too low.

But this was an order from the King's District, and Vila, as a branch dean, had no right to interfere.

He could only use his own resources to gather the upgrade materials for Rode, trying his best to help him keep up with those real rising stars.

On the other hand, after resting for several days, Rode finally felt that he could enter the dream.
