Chapter 112: Knight (Extraordinary)
Chapter 112: Knight (Extraordinary)
"The Ironmane Bear King, a mutated giant bear with far superior strength to regular Ironmane Bears, possesses incredible defensive capabilities. They are rare and extremely difficult to slay."
"Furthermore, among the Knight Acolytes who consume the extraordinary Bear Palm of the Ironmane Bear King as the main ingredient for their Advanced Elixir, a small number of them, upon successfully transcending to the Extraordinary, awaken to two Extraordinary Abilities. Aside from the most common Gigantic Strength, there is an extremely rare Extraordinary Ability called Iron Skin!"
"This Extraordinary Ability is almost never seen among Knight Acolytes who consume the regular Ironmane Bear's Bear Palm as the main ingredient for their Advanced Elixir, which further emphasizes the rarity and value of the Bear King's extraordinary item."
"Compared to the vast number of practitioners of the Bear Breath Technique in the Empire, the scarcity of the Ironmane Bear King's Bear Palm drives its price up significantly."
"In terms of price, it's not too far off from the Stone Beast Heart you provided this time."
"Moreover, this Bear Elixir was personally crafted by a master apothecary from the Imperial Apothecary Guild, who was eager to experiment with such a rare main ingredient. Opportunities to work with such high-quality materials are scarce for even the most skilled apothecaries."
"Hence, this Bear Elixir is of considerable value, and many covet it. That's why I've brought it to you personally."
Additionally, Rain noticed that the energy in the box's patterns resembled the green energy that Anna had once manipulated. This suggested that the patterns on the box were more likely to serve a preservation or state-maintaining function.

However, going from almost zero to a small number was still a significant improvement.
Naturally, Rain's mind conjured an image of a petite female Knight Acolyte, struggling with the massive bear paw. Suddenly, Rain noticed a small metal strip on top of the paw, resembling a nameplate or tag. It read:
"I'm ready! So, if it's convenient, can I consume it now, sirs?"
Although Hamilton was helping with the exchange, there was still a slight chance of something going wrong. Rain couldn't help but feel a bit anxious until he received the Bear Elixir.
Colonel Connor was equally astonished. His friend Hamilton had previously shared this concern with him, mentioning that Rain had only been training as a knight for a few months. So, when he heard Rain's words, he was genuinely shocked!
Delicious!
Therefore, upon completing the elixir, Master Enigo immediately concealed the news, helping his friend obtain the elixir. However, he learned that some influential individuals were discreetly inquiring about the elixir's completion.

After the first bite, a warm sensation filled his stomach, as if he had swallowed a hot spring, nurturing his insides.
Additionally, Rain had the opportunity to awaken two Extraordinary Abilities when transcending to the Extraordinary. However, according to Colonel Connor, even with the Bear King's materials, this possibility was still slim.
"Look at this!"
Rain was dumbfounded! Instantly, a thought crossed his mind, "Could the failure to transcend be due to a small stomach, unable to finish this massive bear paw?"
Knight (Extraordinary), the word 'Extraordinary' in parentheses implied something significant, leaving no room for doubt.
This seemed like a form of witchcraft! Rain had little doubt, as the box was personally handed to him by Colonel Connor.
Evidently, this was a person's name, likely the maker of the Bear Elixir, the apothecary master mentioned by Colonel Connor.
Reaching the level of a formal knight in the Empire signifies a civilian's entry into the noble class. Of course, only after receiving an official ennoblement can one truly become a member of the nobility.
For instance, the concern that a high-quality Bear Elixir might catch the eye of a high-ranking military officer.
"Click!"
To his surprise, inside was not the shimmering liquid elixir in a bottle that Rain had imagined, but a dense white fog accompanied by an unusual fragrance.
Rain slowly opened the box, and as he did, the energy in the patterns began to dissipate, suggesting a single-use item.
Connor mumbled a few words, as if wanting to say something, but he closed his mouth, considering that Rain was Hamilton's trusted subordinate. Moreover, judging by Hamilton's expression, which didn't seem feigned, could this young man named Rain truly possess such extraordinary knight talent, reaching the rank of Knight Acolyte in just a few months?
"Confirmed!"

"Enigo Ophastine?"
If the other party wanted to harm him, they could easily crush him with their strength, so there was no need to go through such a roundabout way.
Hamilton and Connor seemed to have heard a thunderbolt out of nowhere. "What? Now? Reyn, are you ready?" Hamilton was startled, then jumped up from his chair and asked in disbelief, leaning on the desk.
Hamilton didn't immediately respond to Reyn but paced back and forth in the room with a slightly hurried manner. After a moment of thought, he asked, "Have you read the instructions for taking it?"
"The Bear Potion with the Ironmane Bear King's Bear Palm as the main ingredient should be taken within three hours of opening the box—Enigo Ophastine."
"Of course, there's another reason. I wanted to see if the person taking this Advanced Potion is truly as talented as Hamilton said, haha."
So, when he finally obtained the Bear Potion with the Bear Palm of the Ironmane Bear King, Reyn was quite excited.
The box was heavier than he had imagined.
"Yes, sir." Reyn picked up the suitcase and went to the adjacent compartment.
Reyn then changed his mind. Since both Hamilton and Connor were present, why not take the Bear Potion right here? The more he thought about it, the more he liked the idea.
Colonel Connor frowned upon hearing this. What Hamilton had said was also what he was concerned about.
But upon careful consideration, he realized that Lagra's strength was only equivalent to that of a Knight Acolyte in the Empire. If someone with a deep background or formidable strength came to disturb them, it was clear that Lagra couldn't do much.
"Er, sirs, may I take it now?" Reyn's request surprised both of them.
Absolutely delicious! Soon, as the bear palm entered his mouth, he chewed it thoroughly and swallowed it.
Before him appeared a huge bear palm emitting a faint silver light and an enticing fragrance.
Actually, he had wanted to say, "You must be joking," but he immediately recalled the scene of Reyn defeating the Black Flame Mage, which made Hamilton react and ask in a more polite manner.
Reyn went to Hamilton's rest area and, without much hesitation, opened the heavy brown leather suitcase.
Inside was a slightly smaller box with intricate patterns on its surface, as if flowing with visible, unusual energy. This surprised Reyn.
After carefully removing the metal plaque, Reyn began to take his first bite.
"Alright! My rest area is right next door. Reyn, you can take it after adjusting!" Hamilton said with a serious expression.
[Note: Advancement and Promotion to Knight (Supernatural) will overwrite the Night Watch Occupation Panel.]
Reyn quickly identified the white mist as condensed water vapor.
"Are you sure it's okay?"
This made Reyn even more eager to see what was inside the box.
Not only could he minimize the risk of possessing the Bear Potion, but he also had the protection and guidance of two powerful figures, which was much better than his original plan.
"Reyn, I'm now more concerned that this Bear Potion is too precious. If the news leaks out, certain people might come looking for it immediately." Hamilton said with a frown.
[Ding! Detected host taking Advanced Potion, triggering Promotion - Knight (Supernatural)!]
But what was this unusual fragrance? Moreover, why did this fragrance resemble the scent of a certain food?
Although he had expected this outcome, when he truly witnessed this scene, Reyn's heart was filled with excitement!
Reyn's original plan was to take the potion after returning home, with Lagra as his protective force.
For example, what if the potion delivered was only of ordinary quality?
First, the Stone Beast's Heart wasn't wasted, and it really got him an Advanced Potion of similar value.
"Sir Hamilton, you flatter me. Thank you, Colonel Connor, for delivering it personally." After listening, Reyn bowed slightly and thanked Colonel Connor, receiving the suitcase from him with both hands.
Colonel Connor spoke while lifting a brown leather suitcase from the side and handing it to Reyn.
Connor shook his head slightly, thinking that there was no need to overthink it now. In a few hours, they would naturally know the results.
Although he was only the lowest-ranked non-hereditary noble, the word 'noble' carried too many hidden meanings.
Additionally, a huge burden was lifted from Reyn's mind because the previous occupations he triggered were all 'strange and unusual' in his eyes, but this time, it was the most orthodox Knight! Although it would overwrite the Night Watch Panel, Reyn didn't hesitate and chose 'Yes' without further thought.
One was a Supernatural Occupation Panel, and the other was a Standard Occupation Panel. Obviously, there wasn't much more to consider.
[Ding! Starting Promotion. Continuous Metamorphosis.]
