The book is about an inch thick and roughly the size of a palm, with a winged totem on the cover.

Its wings are black, resembling those of an eagle.

Linda infused it with magic, and the wing began to flutter gently, as if it were alive.

A line of information popped up in my field of vision:

[Item: Black Hawk Wings]

[Type: Skill Book/General]

[Quality: Epic Two-Star]

[Description: Black eagle wings generated by magic, allowing one to soar through the sky.]

Learning this skill at the Moon-rank Adventurer level or higher will enhance the Black Hawk Wings and increase flight speed.

Linda smiled.

This is exactly what he's looking for.

A general-purpose flight skills book!

He always carried Hellos with him, but due to his lack of comprehension, he was unable to master the basics for a long time.

After completing the side quest "The Annihilation of the Ghostly Adventurers", players can obtain skills from Herus's corpse.

Linda opened the cover and touched the runes inside with her fingers.

A transparent system message box appears in front of you:

[The general-purpose skill book 'Black Hawk Wings' has been detected. It is of epic quality and has two stars. Do you want to learn it?]

【yes!】

Linda silently recited a mantra, and instantly, the magical runes transformed into a visible stream of white energy, flowing along her fingers and into her body.

A warm, comforting feeling spread throughout my body, eventually settling in my brain.

Linda had this scene in her mind:

It spread its black wings and flew crookedly through the sky.

At first, I kept failing and often bumped my head on the ground, getting bruised and battered, but as time went by, I gradually became more skilled.

[Skill 'Black Hawk Wings' has been learned, current proficiency level 1, flight speed 'slow']

Thus, Linda mastered the basics of flying in just three seconds, a skill that had taken Herus several years to learn.

Linda had no skill points left, so he thought it was fine to fly slowly; he was already content to be able to fly at the Star Rank.

When he, who has mastered the Black Hawk Wings, and Monica, who has the Bat Wings, enter the Moon Rank, their flight speed will surpass that of ordinary Moon Rank members.

"Including Monica in her witch form, three members of the Phoenix Flower team can fly, allowing the entire team to evacuate in case of crisis. Against opponents below the Moon Rank, and even newly promoted Moon Rank opponents, the Phoenix Flower team has sufficient self-defense capabilities."

Linda thought to herself that something like Monica being arrested must never happen again.

"But simply protecting oneself is not enough."

I killed so many Dragon's Rest cultists; I might be targeted, and there's also that strange gaze Lulu mentioned...

Instead of hiding, we should find them and eliminate them to prevent future troubles.

Linda set a goal for herself: for everyone to break through to the Moon Rank and become a Rising Sun-level adventure team!

Suddenly, a powerful aura, heavy as a mountain, emanated from above the cave.

Linda and Monica felt a tightness in their chests.

Before they could react, a thunderous boom resounded as a streak of azure sword light appeared above their heads.

The thick rock wall was torn open as if it were made of paper, revealing a gap more than 30 meters long!

Gravel larger than a water vat rained down from above.

Linda's expression changed, she grabbed Monica's waist and hurled dark whips at the stone pillars around the platform.

He grabbed himself and dodged away in a flash.

As soon as the two passed by, a huge rock crashed down behind them.

Inside the cave, smoke and dust billowed.

Linda stared at the terrifying gaping hole that had appeared above her head, her expression serious.

"I'll protect Captain!" Monica flapped her bat wings, floating in the air, her snake-headed staff aimed at a petite figure outside the gap.

Behind the figure were a pair of brilliant golden wings, and in each hand held a slender blue sword.

Upon closer inspection, it was a young girl. She wore a white dress with a slit in the back, revealing a short, smooth, white tail.

Linda looked closely, then her surprise turned to joy: "Bai Luo... no, Dean?"

Appearing in the sky with overwhelming force was none other than Linda's strongest reinforcement in her plan: the White Cat Swordsman, Bai Luo!

"Monica, put down your staff. With the Dean here, the crisis is over!"

Seeing Bai Luo appear, Lin Da finally felt relieved.

Monica folded her bat wings and timidly hid behind Linda, only peeking out her little head to steal a glance at the terrifying catgirl.

When did the captain meet such a remarkable person?

With a flap of her wings, Bai Luoguang's small feet, clad in brown boots, landed lightly on the ground.

She looked slightly apologetic: "I'm sorry I'm so late... but that's because Wenqi's detector wasn't working properly. Anyway, leave the rest to me, the dean."

With a sweep of his senses, Bai Luo discovered that Lin Da was safe and sound. He held his chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

The cat ears on the girl's head, which had been taut, softened, and the bristling white fur calmed down.

She would feel extremely guilty if Linda died.

"By the way, where are the cultists? Did they all run away because of me?"

Bai Luo glanced around the hall, and the scene before her surprised her.

The ground was littered with broken skeletons and many mangled corpses dressed in black robes.

Judging from the silver thread on their hoods, they were mostly members of the "Dragon Egg" level from the Dragon's Rest Tomb.

Bai Luo naturally didn't take these "minor monsters" seriously.

But for Linda, they must have been a group of terrifying guys.

Bai Luo asked doubtfully, "Do you have other reinforcements?"

"No, it's just you, Dean, and you're late. Luckily, the younger generation is quite resilient," Lin Da said helplessly.

Bai Luo blushed and twitched her cat ears sheepishly. Then, remembering something, she asked, "Wait, you took down all these cultists by yourself?"
