Moss had stayed in Buried City for nearly two months in a blink of an eye. Moss gained experience, and Little Seven also grew exponentially during that time.

He achieved a full-time job and became a Super Knight through his efforts. At the same time, he also became the highest-level diamond member and obtained the most prestigious VIP card every Buried City member dreamed of.

In addition, he established close relationships with the City Lord and Deputy City Lord. One could say Moss had made achievements others might not be able to do in a lifetime.

After all, there was a saying, “Nothing lasts forever.” Moss’s day of departure would arrive eventually, even though he was reluctant.

On the other hand, he was about to start college; on the other, he promised Flying Wolf he would go to the front lines for a mission.

Nonetheless, Mundus and Landis were also reluctant to part with Moss. When Moss explained the situation to them three days ago and told them he was leaving Buried City, the two brothers did not stop talking about him.

“Brother, do you think Moss’s overall strength has increased again after completing the King of the Land mission?” Landis could not help but exclaim in admiration when he witnessed Moss’s performance in the level 9 and 10 missions over the past few days.

“Through secretly observing him these past few days, I also think he has improved. It’s unbelievable that he has improved again in just a few days.”

“Yes, although I did not see his performance in the mission personally, he has become stronger, considering the time he recently submitted his mission and the number of points he got.”

“Now he’s doing level 10 missions and having a much easier time than before. What surprised me more is that his spiritual power seems to have increased exponentially!” Landis said in a rather shocked manner.

Mundus looked at the ceiling and asked thoughtfully, “Do you think there are any similarities between Moss and Mighty Knight? I wonder who is stronger because the more I look at it, the more I think Moss is Mighty Knight’s shadow.”

Landis nodded affirmatively and said with emotion, “Although Moss’s overall strength is weaker compared to Mighty Knight, Moss is not even eighteen years old.”

Then he changed the topic, “The spiritual power and attack Moss displayed over the past few days aren’t much weaker than Might Knight’s.”

“This kid is the epitome of miracles. He always brings us unexpected results,”Mundus sighed as he continued, “Sigh, it’s a pity he has to leave.”

“Don’t worry, Little Brother. Moss is someone who values friendship. Since he said he would fulfill his obligations as a Buried City member, he will keep his word.”

Landis patted his little brother’s shoulder and continued firmly, “Also, you must be confident in our city because our unique resources will entice him to return. We’ll treat the friendship we established with him as waiting for an old friend to revisit us. Moss will return from time to time.”

Mundus nodded and smiled at his big brother.

Moss was reluctant to leave, so he looked back once again. These past two months of battles in Buried City had brought him many improvements. After reminiscing, Moss stepped onto the bus heading to the front lines.

Moss looked out of the bus window as it moved away from Buried City. He felt emotional but also looked forward to his experience at the front lines and a new life in college.

Of course, when Moss thought about the spatial anomalies and the impending beast tide, he felt a sense of urgency while looking forward to it.

‘Fortunately, many people and organizations are preparing for these things that could arrive at any time,’ Moss thought as he revealed a gratified smile.

Although many did not know about Buried City because it was so mysterious, Buried City’s foothold was excellent, considering the City Lord’s thoughts and practical actions.

Even if Mundus wanted Buried City to develop more, his city had always prepared itself for the changes that could happen at any time. From that point of view, Buried City’s members would not sit idly by should any threats occur.

‘There’s also the Magical Beasts Emergency Defense Center. I can go to the front lines and better understand it with Flying Wolf and Falcon,’ Moss kept thinking as he relaxed and fell asleep from tiredness.

“Dear passengers, we are about to arrive at the Great Wall. Passengers who alight at the Great Wall, please get ready.”

Moss heard the conductor’s melodious voice and removed his backpack from the overhead luggage rack. Then he quickly moved to the front of the bus and sat next to the door.

Whoosh.

The door opened, and Moss hurriedly got off the bus. Moss was lost in his thoughts as he looked at the beacon tower emitting smoke in the distance when he heard a familiar voice behind him.

“You’re quite punctual, Moss!”

Moss quickly turned around and saw Flying Wolf. He strode toward Flying Wolf and greeted him in a friendly manner, “Hello, Deputy Instructor Flying Wolf!”

“You’ve grown taller and look a little pale there, kid!” Flying Wolf rolled his eyes at Moss and continued teasing him, “Looks to me that Buried City was quite nurturing.”

“You must be kidding, Instructor Flying Wolf. There’s barely any sunlight there, so it makes sense that I look pale. As for my height, well, I can’t control that even if I wanted to,” Moss said seriously.

“Hahaha, you brat. Since you’re here, let’s get in the car. Falcon is waiting for us.”

The two got into the car and sped toward the front lines.

Moss did not know if the mission was more straightforward this time or if the city’s defense warriors had improved. Nonetheless, he and the others repelled a wave of Magical Beasts two and a half hours earlier than expected.

Moss displayed his impressive defenses and sharp attacks during that city defense mission. Although he had just evolved into a Super Knight and had yet to awaken his Unharmed Domain, he could only rely on his defenses to increase his skills by a hundredfold at level 35. Then he could equip his shield to withstand 17.5 tons of force or equivalent damage.

If he added Radiant Splendor, his defenses would increase by another 50%. His Holy Light blade skill he obtained through his awakening could unleash 50 times his full strength, significantly increasing Moss’s attack power.

This allowed him to attack in all directions during the mission that had just ended. Some of Moss’s performance had once again impressed the city defense warriors as they expressed their admiration and shock toward him.

However, Flying Wolf and Falcon felt even more shocked.

“It’s only been two months since I last met the kid, and he has already improved so much, Flying Wolf,” Falcon revealed a brilliant smile as he hugged Flying Wolf’s shoulder, “He charged into the Magical Beast horde as if it was nothing!”

“Hahaha, didn’t you notice what skill he used?” Flying Wolf laughed proudly.

“What skill?” Falcon asked.

“I think your memory has gotten fuzzy because of the war,” Flying Wolf gently knocked Falcon’s head and continued, “That was Absolute Defense!”

“Whoa! To have such attainments at such a young age is insane!” Falcon snapped his fingers. “That reminds me of that awesome officer from last time. The effect Moss displayed is almost the same as his!”

“Yeah, but Moss is only sixteen! He even displayed it during the elite training program; I saw it again today. Now I’m sure that he used Absolute Defense!” Flying Wolf praised Moss from the bottom of his heart.

Then he said even more excitedly, “However, I was more surprised with Moss’s attack today. It’s at least 50% higher than before!”

“50%?! Why do you say that?” Falcon widened his eyes and looked shocked.
