After Shi Dong's guidance, Fang Zheng clearly felt that he was much better in that world.

The reason why Fang Zheng died so miserably before was not only because he didn't know enough about the world itself, but also because he had no idea how to deal with such emergencies. Especially when he encountered giants four or five meters tall, or some strange monsters, Fang Zheng had no idea how to deal with such things - should he just chop them with a sword?

No matter how strong you are, you can't withstand this, let alone that damn, malicious treasure chest monster!

In this regard, Shi Dong was very experienced, and a few words of advice could benefit Fang Zheng immensely. In return, Fang Zheng often talked to Shi Dong about the world. Shi Dong himself seemed to be quite interested in that world, and would often ask Fang Zheng about the latest situation there. This made Fang Zheng feel like he was back in his school days, discussing game strategies with his classmates every day...

But the hard work finally paid off. Fang Zheng clearly felt that the number of times he died in emergencies in that world was getting less and less. After he successfully defeated the Abyss Watcher deep in the Fran Fortress without any injury, Fang Zheng finally got his first reward in the free copy.

Skill Expertise [Weapon Expertise]!

[Weapon Expertise: You have realized the true meaning of battle in the endless cycle of death. You start with a sword, and life and death are all up to fate. You finally understand that in this world, only the weapon in your hand is your most trustworthy comrade-in-arms (the initial proficiency of all weapons is 100%)]

After acquiring this expertise, Fang Zheng was curious and tried it out. The result made him overjoyed. Because Fang Zheng found that with the bonus of [Weapon Expertise], not only did he use the Royal Cross Swordsmanship more smoothly, but even when he picked up equipment such as the giant sword and the short sword, he felt that those unfamiliar weapons in his hands seemed to have become an extension of his body. He could use them as easily as if they were his own arms.

That's a pretty nice feat bonus.

Through this expertise reward, Fang Zheng finally discovered that the reward for this dungeon seemed to be based on whether he could defeat the boss without taking any damage. Fang Zheng had died several times before when fighting other bosses, and even when he won, he was exhausted. This time, he was able to defeat the enemy without taking any damage, thanks entirely to Shi Dong's guidance, Fang Zheng's adequate preparation, and a little bit of luck...

After mastering this specialty, Fang Zheng came to the temple again excitedly, wanting to practice with Shi Dong. But what Fang Zheng didn't expect was that before he even stepped into the gate of the temple, he saw Shi Dong in armor striding out of it, then patted Fang Zheng on the shoulder, grabbed him and walked into the temple.

"Come on, boy, we have work to do!"

"Is it a battle?"

Fang Zheng was used to Shi Dong's unconventional behavior. He was just stunned for a moment, and then he reacted immediately. After all, the Temple was not supporting him out of charity. As an apprentice guardian knight, Fang Zheng had already enjoyed the benefits given to him by the Temple, so naturally he had to contribute.

"That's right."

While leading Fang Zheng into the corridor, Shi Dong spoke to Fang Zheng quickly.

"Just now, we received a call for help from Shadow Canyon. A team of knights tracked the cultists and entered the depths of the canyon. But they accidentally fell into the trap and are now trapped in the Plain of Bones... What a bunch of idiots, who allowed them to go to Shadow Canyon? Don't they know that it is the Twilight Frontier? Now they want me to clean up their mess..."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but curl his lips. He had a feeling that these paladins were probably the unlucky ones who were killed by his body...

"Should I go too?"

"Of course, you are quite strong, and it seems that you have plenty of practical experience. Currently, Xingyue City is short of manpower, and you and I are the only ones who can do anything. And your power is divine power, which is just enough to restrain those undead bastards. Let me see what you can do!"

As they were talking, the two of them had already reached the end of the corridor. Seeing the figures of Shi Dong and Fang Zheng, the temple warriors at the end of the corridor hurriedly saluted them, and then pushed open the heavy stone door behind them.

Behind the stone gate is a huge circular teleportation array, which is also the most powerful weapon of the temple. This teleportation array can achieve unlimited long-distance docking and teleportation. In times of war, this teleportation array can use the power of the archbishop to directly teleport troops to the battlefield.

Of course, this teleportation array looks invincible, but in fact it also has restraints. As long as the opponent uses a space anchor to block the entire space, the teleportation array will be completely useless.

But even so, the teleportation array is a pretty good choice if you want to travel quickly.

"Um?"

But what Fang Zheng didn't expect was that after he entered the teleportation hall, he soon saw two figures next to the teleportation array. One of them was the old bishop that Fang Zheng was already familiar with, and the other was a little beyond Fang Zheng's expectations. She was a cute girl in a black robe. After seeing Fang Zheng, the girl blushed slightly, then lowered her head and looked at the ground without saying a word.

...If I remember correctly, isn't this the soft girl at the City Hall who gave me the star mark?

What is she doing here?

"How is it going?"

Entering the teleportation hall, Shi Dong immediately looked at the old bishop standing next to the teleportation array. Hearing Shi Dong's question, the old bishop shook his head helplessly.

"The situation is not good. I just managed to get in touch with them, but it was quickly disconnected again..."

"What a bunch of idiots."

Hearing the old bishop's answer, Shi Dong rolled his eyes helplessly.

"Where are their teleportation crystals?"

"The other party has cast a spatial restriction, and the teleportation crystal cannot be used..."

"That means there is at least a lich-level opponent waiting for us there?"

The more news he got, the gloomier Shi Dong's expression became.

"What's wrong with these idiots? They went to the Plain of Bones to fight the liches? If they are so capable, why don't they charge into the Twilight Frontier? Do they think they are inflated and can have some fun? I always say that those guys directly under the Bishops' Council are unreliable. They are arrogant and self-righteous, but in fact they are complete losers... They haven't even been weaned from their mother's arms yet, but they think they can save the world!"

It is said that birds of a feather flock together. After hanging out with Fang Zheng for so long, Shi Dong has also learned some of his words that sound incomprehensible but actually make sense.

"So what now?"

"The rest is up to her."

As he spoke, the old bishop looked at the girl next to him. Noticing everyone's gaze, the girl trembled, then she raised her head tremblingly and nodded to everyone.

"This Miss M can provide a coordinate so that you can be teleported to the nearest location..."

M……

Hearing this name, Fang Zheng couldn't help but chuckle. However, he didn't express any surprise. During these days in the temple, Fang Zheng had almost enough understanding of this world. He knew that for astrologers, names were a special secret, because astrologers believed that there was a special connection between their names and the stars, so generally astrologers used code names instead of their real names to show others. Only the astrologer's mentor and his family were qualified to know the astrologer's real name.

but……

Taking a look at the girl in front of him who was trembling like a little squirrel, Fang Zheng felt that this code name really suited her... From the outside, it seemed that this girl was definitely a weakling.

"she?"

Compared to Fang Zheng, Shi Dong was concerned about another aspect of the problem.

"Isn't there a space restriction in place? How can she lead us in?"

And after hearing this, the girl finally spoke in a low voice.

"Well... Actually... I can point out a star path for you by observing the trajectory of the constellations. It is not affected by the space restriction... But..."

"Can you do that?"

Hearing this, Shi Dong was shocked.

"I remember that finding the path to the stars is a difficult task even for high-level astrologers!"

"Miss M is the most proud disciple of the Royal Astrologer Oscar."

The old bishop finally interrupted.

"So, you must ensure her safety and not let this young lady get hurt. Otherwise, if that old guy comes knocking on my door, I won't be able to bear it."

"Wait…what do you mean?"

Hearing the old bishop's answer, Shi Dong's expression changed again, and the old bishop smiled.

"As you heard, this lady will go to the Plain of Bones with you..."

“…Huh?”
