This is a continent still resembling the medieval period.

Noble lords each rule their own territories, reigning over various lands with their terrifyingly powerful knight teams under their command.

Although there is already a unified kingdom on the continent – the Dragon Kingdom, disputes and ambitions, civilization and ignorance, wars and conflicts, are still continuously staged on this land.

Darkness gives birth to mysteries, and the legend of wizards and dragons remains the most popular tale among the wandering poets.

The mainstream belief of the kingdom is the Church of the Mother Earth Goddess, but the seafaring people on the eastern islands, the wild men in the mountains, and even more distant barbaric tribes, all have their own beliefs.

This is the world that Su Lu has arrived in!

All of the above are what he has heard from the village head who claimed to be the most educated, and the Recorder, as well as the militia leader of the village.

Ever since he demonstrated his terrifying swordplay and might, the hospitality and enthusiasm he received immediately rose several levels. He was invited to the village head’s house to enjoy grilled meat and fine wine.

As Su Lu sipped on his oak cup of wine and tasted grilled meat in front of the bonfire, he suddenly turned to Alick, “You mentioned before that you almost became a knight’s attendant?”

“Yes, only by becoming a knight’s attendant can you have the opportunity to be trained to become a real knight! Unfortunately, I lost in the final selection…”

Alick belched out, regretfully saying, “Only official knights, or Black Iron Knights, can master the Breath Technique and secret skills, cultivating unparalleled physical strength and power. Wearing hundreds of pounds of heavy armor and killing flexibly in the battlefield, they are the most fearsome war machines… and also the shortcut to becoming a noble!”

‘This sounds… somewhat like being an occupational person…’

Su Lu’s eyes brightened.

He knew that even in the era of Twilight of the Gods, the seeds of Transcendent were preserved.

Now, through keeping the drinks flowing and boasting about exploits, his relationship with these rulers of Ward Village got better and better, and he heard a lot of information about this world.

‘The Duke of Wolf Fort in the North, the Mitis family, is one of the four great families of the kingdom, controlling the widest territory among the vassals… The family core is in Wolf Fort! As well as the most powerful Northern Knight team in the northern lands!’

‘The so-called Northern Knight team, the official members are at least Black Iron Knights, averaging four to five attendants per person, the total number never surpassed one thousand, yet they are the most elite force in the northern land!’

‘This is easy to understand. Occupational persons, even if they are at the first level, after wearing full-body heavy armor, are simply invincible in the ordinary cold weapon army… Such knights forming a knight team, can slaughter and drive a large army of tens of thousands like herding sheep. A rebellion without Occupational persons participating is a joke!’

‘And in order to win them over, official knights, or Black Iron Knights, as long as they have made certain merits, can immediately be knighted as a lord, obtaining hereditary fiefs. Almost the size of a village…also known as a knight’s manor.’

‘Such a system, coupled with the existence of transcendent power, has led to the frightening degree of solidification of the ruling class over thousands of years. Only becoming a knight is the last way out…’

Thinking about asking about their written language, but finding that everyone in a village is illiterate and the only Recorder is semi-literate, Su Lu could not help but feel heavy-hearted.

How does a semi-literate person keep records?

Although he doesn’t know much about writing, he knows drawing and counting! This is already an unimaginable civilized person in the village! Even this skill can be passed on to his son to continue being a Recorder!

Before such a situation, Su Lu expressed his despair as well.

‘Forget it. I’ll set off early tomorrow morning and head to Wolf Fort. It’s the main city of the northern territory, the center of the Mitis family, and the base camp of the Northern Knight team. There should be some gains…’

After returning to his wooden hut, Su Lu made up his mind.

Such a small village is ultimately too isolated in terms of information, and the only useful information obtained was heard from passing merchants, who knows how many years it is out of date.

He lay on the animal skin padded with straw, starting to ponder his path.

“XP: [650]!”

The experience points on the attribute column made him sigh again.

Although before he had braced himself to bear the Federation’s wanted list and made a huge haul of experience points, everything had been consumed in the subsequent promotions.

What is left is not enough for the promotion of any Fourth Level profession.

‘During the fight in front of the Door of a Different World at the auction, it was a good opportunity, but who dared to come forward at that time? Aren’t you afraid of killing too many, attracting attention and being targeted and attacked by the Federation’s Fifth Level Professionals?’

‘Only got 200 experience points, and adding the ones I had, it’s only this much.’

Su Lu looked at his skills and passives, falling into deep thought.

“Generally speaking, in the Twilight of the Gods, spellcasters are harder to endure… The power of spells drastically decreases, but various melee attacks and weapon skills can still retain some of them.”

For physical side Occupational persons, even without mysterious power, most of them are pretty good fighters.

“So, should I prioritize upgrading the [Dimensional Walker] series of professions and skill passives? However… the [Dream Master] series of professions seems to be a bit different.”

Su Lu felt the benefits of leaning towards a spiritual world profession.

If it was a regular spellcaster who came to this world, the suppression they might face could be more terrifying than his.

But every world has a three-layer spiritual structure, which means that even though he is suppressed, he still retains a certain level of strength compared to ordinary spellcasters.

“Perhaps… this is also the true essence of the [Wandering Mage]…”

The so-called [Wandering Mage] is best at traveling through different worlds, there must be a way to deal with this situation!

“The key… still lies in experience points!”

Su Lu’s face was solemn. This is the most troublesome thing!

In the low magic world of the Twilight of the Gods, there must be very few Transcendents, and one has to gain sufficient experience for promotion to double fourth level from them, and even to open the Door of Legends!

Just thinking about it gives him goosebumps.

“No… perhaps, I can find a Door to a Different World here!”

Su Lu quickly thought of another way: “Anyway… there are still opportunities, there is still hope… the key is information, enough information!”

Only by truly understanding this world can he determine his next course of action.

And a small village like this clearly cannot provide these.

Hence, going to Wolf Fort is a must.

Su Lu laid down, closed his eyes and said, “But… Black Iron Knight, huh?”

He felt that this resembled the training and breakthrough of Occupational persons, and it might be related to the [Soldier] in the Main World.

However, since the Mother Earth Goddess also has faith here, the paths of other professions might be similar, and this is also very likely.

‘Does this really indicate… the two worlds are very close… but my real hometown is far away as if it’s in another universe…’𝔣𝚛eewe𝚋𝚗𝚘𝚟e𝔩.𝚌𝔬m
