Chapter 302 Targeting
After Annan returned to the capital, he didn't have anything special to do. He basically just waited for Professor Duran to be discharged from the hospital and then returned to Kedax City. He spent most of the time doing nothing.
So he came to the academy in the other world on a daily basis, intending to take a dip in the library that seemed to have an endless collection of books.
However, this time he did not enter the library alone. He happened to meet Jiuxiao, a professor from the college, on the way, so they made an appointment to go into the library together.
Generally speaking, if the library users are unwilling or not allowed, they will not meet other people in the library. Some unknown space magic may be used here.
Anyway, this academy in the other world originally had many magical features, which was no longer enough to surprise Annan, who had been joining the academy for a while.
And conversely, the library also allows multiple people to enter, as long as all users agree.
This was Annan's first time entering the college's library with others, but it didn't feel like anything special. It was almost the same as a library in the real world.
After entering the library, Professor Jiuxiao seemed to have half-premeditated it and said something concerning.
"Annan, you are being targeted by the White Knight."
"My identity exposed?"
Annan reacted like this subconsciously.
"Of course not. It is impossible for the academy to reveal your true identity. As long as you are not accidentally discovered, your identity will basically not be known to anyone in the academy."
Jiuxiao shook his head.
"However, the White Knight has indeed focused on you. Ever since you held a lecture on black magic, the White Knight has started to pay attention to you. Although I only received the relevant news not long ago, in short, I have told you now, Please pay attention."
"Okay, I understand, but how could the White Knight notice what's going on in the academy?"
Annan thought of a possibility without waiting for the professor beside him to reply.
"There are also white knights in the academy?"
"That's right. You shouldn't have forgotten the purpose of the academy. We teach everyone here, even if the person's real identity is a white knight."
Annan knew it would be like this.
"The academy is really bold. Didn't it mean that the academy has always been paid attention to by the White Knight? There are always so many mysterious things hidden here. Even the books in the library here have violated countless laws. "
"The white knights can't deal with the academy. Even if the academy loses all its members, they won't be afraid. Besides, the right person is the right person. The academy would rather lack than abuse, but as long as they are suitable, they will definitely recruit them."
It seemed that Jiuxiao came here just to inform Annan about this matter.
He then planned to leave the library.
Annan stopped the college professor.
"Professor Jiuxiao, who is the white knight in the academy? Can you tell me who he is?"
"Unfortunately, even if it is your level, I can't reveal it to you, although I do know it right."
Jiuxiao stopped, but he rejected Annan's request.
"Well, the only thing I can say is that the white knights in the academy attended your last black magic lecture."
After Professor Jiuxiao finished speaking, he quickly left.
"Is that so?"
Annan had no worries about this matter, since his true identity was not known to the White Knight anyway.
"Since I can't do anything in the academy, there is no need for me to be afraid of the White Knight. And if the other party wants to find out my true identity, they will definitely get close to me. Then... we'll talk about it then."
Annan immediately put the matter behind him and began to look for interesting books in the library.

"Are you really going to go anyway?"
Professor Dulan is about to be discharged from the hospital, and Annan is about to leave the capital and return to his hometown in this world.
Just before that, the Lord of the Rings Bayonet appears.
Bayonet secretly came to the hotel where Annan was staying and told his collaborator that he was about to leave the country.
"Your injury shouldn't be healed yet? You can wait a little longer."
"It will take too long for our so-called King of the Rings to recover naturally after being separated from the human body. I don't want to waste time waiting any longer."
Bayonet has actually revealed before that he does not plan to rest for long.
"As you know, the fastest way for a half-human, half-spirit like the Lord of the Rings to recover is to devour the same kind and other spirits. I plan to find other holders of the Ring to recover myself. .”
If the King of the Ring wants to improve himself, the fastest and most feasible way is to devour the same kind, so the King of the Ring will not hesitate to sacrifice part of his power to create the birth ring.
The so-called breeding behavior is to cultivate your own food.
On the other hand, it is also to extend one's life.
After the holder of the Ring grows for a period of time, both life and strength will increase. The King of the Ring behind the scenes can spot the opportunity and harvest at the appropriate time.
The harvested part is not only the power, but also the life of the other party.
Although this method of extending life is not very efficient, and the most it can do is gain a few more years of life, it is still better than nothing.
And as long as he perseveres and develops his own breeding farm appropriately, the Lord of the Rings can theoretically harvest power and life endlessly.
Of course, the other fastest way is to destroy another King of the Ring and then absorb everything from the other party.
Compared with the slow and time-consuming breeding behavior, this method is more efficient, and it is also more dangerous. It may in turn become nutrients for the other party.
Bayonet was a former elite white knight and a victim of the Lord of the Rings. He would never imitate the behavior of other Lords of the Rings and breed. He would only do so for himself and harm others.
He was able to become the King of the Rings partly because he obtained a considerable number of Rings from the White Knight Headquarters, and partly because he had killed several Lords of the Rings.
For him, if he wanted to restore himself, instead of slowly waiting in a peaceful place, it would be more practical to take risks and find other Lords of the Rings.
"Those guys at Klein Pharmaceuticals must be dealt with as soon as possible. I can't waste time waiting any longer. I appreciate your kindness."
Since it is difficult for the White Knight to conduct a large-scale investigation of Klein Pharmaceuticals at this stage, they can only rely on the bayonet of a single person.
Bayonet does not have his own position and limitations like the white knight of the official organization. He can do more things alone.
Facing the determined bayonet, all Annan could do was provide moral support.
"If you have made up your mind, then I am not qualified to stop you, so I wish you good luck."
