<h4>Chapter 296: Knights Reporting for Duty</h4>


    With that thought, Audrey entered the otherworldly realm in a sh. Meatball, who was sleeping, woke up when he sensed someone entering.


    “It’s the middle of the night. Why are you here again? You’re disturbing my sleep,” he pouted in dissatisfaction and said helplessly.


    Audrey chuckled. She could not help but pinch Meatball when she saw him.


    “Of course I came because I had something to do. You can continue sleeping,” she said casually, but she knew that Meatball would not continue sleeping.


    As expected, Meatball immediately said, “Since you’re here, I can’t sleep either. So why don’t I apany you? As long as you bring me some delicious food tomorrow, it’s fine.”


    “It’s a deal.” Audrey curled the corners of her lips as a crafty look shed across her eyes.


    Extracting the seed of the Snow Lotus was not a simple task. But, perhaps with the Meatball around, it would not be of much help to her.


    After finding the Snow Lotus that had been kept by the hot spring, Audrey took a closer look and found that it had grown even better than before. Its petals were plump and highly white.


    ording to the ancient books, if one wanted to extract the seed of the Snow Lotus, one had to bear it with an icy body. This was also why the Snow Lotus lived in the Snow Mountains. The Snow Mountains were the only ce that could amodate the Snow Lotus.


    But now, in this otherworldly realm, it could also grow. It could be seen how magical the otherworldly realm was.


    In addition to the extreme cold, one also had to use a powerful force as a supplement to be able to extract the seed. After the seed was extracted, it had to be watered with force for forty-nine days before it could take root and sprout.


    And this seed was different from the others. Even if one cut open the entire Snow Lotus, they would not be able to find it. Legend had it that the Snow Lotus had spirituality, and the seed was its life. When it wanted to give it, it would grow the seed.


    Afraid that the environment in the otherworldly realm would not be able to meet the conditions for extracting the seed, Audrey had no choice but to use magic.


    “Great Snow Goddess, please let everything around you sink into the ice.” As the chant sounded, snowkes began to fall from the otherworldly realm, which was originally like spring all year round. The temperature plummeted, and in an instant, it was as if they had entered an ice and snow century.


    Only then did Audrey step forward and look at the Snow Lotus with aplicated gaze. She injected a stream of magic power into it in an attempt to force the seed out.


    After a period of time, the Snow Lotus still showed no signs of the seeding out. The magic power also stopped, and Audrey knew that she had failed.


    However, she was not discouraged. It was not an easy thing, to begin with. How could she seed in one try?


    “Little brat, what are you doing?” Meatball did not quite understand and went forward to ask. “It’s such a nice ce, but you’ve turned it into an ice and snow century. It’s so cold.”


    “You still feel cold?” Audrey asked curiously.


    Meatball naturally did not feel too cold. It was just that the environment had suddenly changed, and he was not used to it.


    “Actually, it’s not that bad. It’s just that what are you doing here?”


    Audrey did not hide anything and directly told Meatball. She asked, “Do you have any good ideas?”


    “Snow Lotus? I don’t know either, but I can think about it.” Meatball frowned, looking very cute with a mischievous expression.


    Audrey nodded and smiled gratefully. Then, she tried a few more times, but she did not seed.


    Audrey had used up most of the energy in her body, so sheid on the grass tiredly. She nned to think about it carefully, but she fell asleep without realizing it.


    The next day, Meatball’s voice woke Audrey up.


    She suddenly realized that she had fallen asleep. “How long have I slept?”


    “Just a few hours,” Meatball answered casually, but Audrey’s expression tensed up. When she came in, it was alreadyte at night. If these few hours had passed, would it not already be morning?


    Could it be that the Knights had missed their reporting time as well?


    Audrey hurriedly left the otherworldlynds. Looking at the time, she realized that it was indeed one hour past the reporting time. Klein and the others must have been looking for her like crazy.


    Audrey did not dare to dy and immediately went to the Knights.


    “Audrey, where have you been? Why are you sote?” It was Cole who came forward with an anxious expression.


    “I just overslept.” Audrey smiled apologetically. “Did I miss anything?”


    “Not really. The regimentalmander said that it wouldn’t be a problem since it’s our first day here, so we’ve been waiting for you,” Klein exined at the side so that Audrey could be at ease.


    As they spoke, the regimentalmander, Burl, had already walked over. “Everyone’s here, right? You can just stand in thest row of the team. Listen to me first about the rules of the level two Knights.”


    The six of them walked over obediently and Burl started to talk.


    “The missions of our level-two Knights are usually of medium and high difficulty. Our goal is to work hard toplete the missions to be level-one Knights. In addition to the usual missions, you also need to train here frequently. The weekly training should not be less than twenty hours.”


    The purpose of the training was to make all the members of the Knights maintain their strong abilities and not fall behind.


    Following that, Burl also exined many other rules of the Knights. One of the most important rules was that the Knights spoke based on their strength. Everyone could challenge each other without harming their lives.


    This also made Audrey feel the importance of strength here.
