Chapter 408 - Test (2)

Rudra gave in his recommendation letter to the attendant at the knight's hall , who raised an eyebrow and reread it carefully , before leaving her position to enquire about two critical details about the person holding the letter.

One letter was sent to the palace , while the other was sent to the church to approve this man taking the tier promotion test.

Only when both of those tests came back as positive did they allow Rudra into the primary testing room where there was a crystal orb placed to reveal Rudra's stats and titles.

The examiner was left stunned seeing the long list of titles under Rudra's name . As for his level , as it was 120 , there was no objections.

The examiner passed Rudra from the primary screening allowing him to undertake the tier 3 promotion test.

Rudra was sure that his qualifications were more than sufficient hence he was not worried about the primary screening at all , whereas the first test bothered him a bit.

The valley of knight's was a restricted zone that could only be accessed from the knight's training hall , after a 1.2 km hike. The entire trail was heavily protected by senior knight , and only authorised personnel were given entry.

Rudra was walking alongside the examiner wearing a grean amulet suggesting that he was a examinee.

As Rudra kept approaching the knight's valley , his heart kept beating faster and faster , the slope was quite steep , to reach the damn valley , and there was a thick smog from water vapour evaporation in the area.

Rudra felt like he was taking a steam bath , as all the pores in his skin opened up due to the hot steam , but it was only going to increase even more as he descended.

After a while the examiner stopped , when a sign that said Magma trail arrived at the side of the road.

The examiner said " Hopefully you clear the entire trail , and meet me on the other side. Should you faint before the passing threshold , you will be failed . Should you faint after crossing the threshhold , the protection in your amulet will activate itself and teleport you back to the knight's hall . Good luck adventurer ! ".

Rudra understood that for a SSS rating , his only option was to clear this trail , there was no option of fainting at even 99% completion. Hence , steeling his resolve he walked into the foggy trail.

Magma trail was quite literally a trail over Magma , as a river of Magma flowed 200 meters below where Rudra walked on a special kind of heat resistant wood.

The temperature was scorching hot , so much so that the air around Rudra seemed to refract light due to changes in density of air.

However the real challenge began when a fruity smell entered Rudra's nose , jolting his mind awake.

[ Sindhal Marijuana ] : A hallucigen who has many benefits for body strengthening when inhaled.?Known to only grow in volcanic regions , it is extremely rare to find one and even riskier to harvest.

Incase the air around him was not an illusion in and off itself , the drug also entered the air , to make him suffer.

Rudra who already had trouble walking the suspending bridge , slowly started to loose sense of balance , as more and more smoke was inhaled , Rudra went from worse to miserable.

As a drug free man in real life ,his tolerance to such hallucigens was non existent . Neither did he have the experience on how to deal with such situations.

As a result Rudra kept clutching his head in headache , as if cutting off the blood supply to his head would rid him of the splitting headache.

However , this could not affect his resolve even one bit , as despite the headache , his speed in traversing the bridge never dropped.

The foggy atmosphere gave Rudra only a visibility of 5 meters in normal , 50 with eyes of truth , yet no matter how much he walked or how far he looked , there was not even a slightest hope of seeing the end of the trail.

Little by little Rudra could feel that his lungs were?absorbing the sindhal Marijuana in his blood stream , as his body started to profousely sweat , as his blood was being refined.

5 minutes , 10 minutes , 15 minutes Rudra kept walking and walking , through sheer will alone , however slowly yet surely , his eyes started to close shut , as the overdose was making his brain undergo forced shutdown .

His thought process started to slow , as he started to hallucinate , unable to differentiate between real and fake .

Rudra did not know it , however he had barely covered 30% of the trail yet . Not even the 35% standard set by the institute for passing . He was in a tough situation , as the going had gotten tough for the leader of the Elites.

Meanwhile in the swordsman class promotion quest.

Neatwit slaid his final opponent , as he completed the final phase of his tier promotion exam.

A system notification rang , informing him he was now a tier 3 player , and the first one in the continent to achieve this feat at that.

He was heavily panting , however his usual smile was missing today ... As his mind was focused on the coming war.

He was not interested in the fame ... He only wanted the corresponding skill selection option , as he wanted to choose a new class specific skill to become even stronger than before.

Hao Mi and Mithun Ambani dared to kill his mother like step - aunt. Hence he needed to avenge her death , as to calm the rage of the departed soul.

Neatwit coldly looked at all the options available and selected the skill with the maximum attack power , useful for PVE.

A tier 3 player had emerged inside the Elites ..... The only one in the continent, yet!
