From MC's Perspective:
I controlled my emotions and looked at her. Manager Lara began to remove the formations on the door. I thought she would cast a magic spell.
But to my surprise, she was doing sothing with her identity badge.
Click!
After a few seconds, the gold-plated door opened. The next second, I saw the interior of the room illuminated with bright light.
I could see storage lockers on both sides of the walls. I had no doubt that unknown items were placed inside the lockers.
"Co with ," Lara said without turning back.
"Yeah," I uttered before walking inside the room. The tile floors imdiately drew my attention.
I couldn't help but use the probe function. The next second, I saw details of it appearing on the panel. The floors were made of special tiles.
After looking at the panel, I quietly dismissed it. But I wasn't surprised at all. The Forbidden Wizards are part of the Mage Union, so it's natural for them to have such special materials.
Then I ca to the main room. The next scene blew my mind away. I couldn't even find the end of the hall; it was ever-extending. But I could definitely see the extending lockers on both sides of the walls.
For a second, I thought it was real. The next second, my gaze fell on the chandelier. The huge chandelier could be seen repeating as well.
"Magic in use," I uttered.
"Good, you have figured it out as well. It was done for protection. Even though the items here are unknown, they are priceless. They can't be found anywhere in the world," Lara said with a smile.
Hearing that, a look of realization dawned on .
"Let's check your skills," she said.
Then she walked up to one of the lockers and opened the drawer. A black box was inside. She took it and walked up to the huge desk in the center of the room.
She then called over to to appraise it.
Hearing that, I walked up to the big and wide desk. I saw her placing a black box on the table. I thought it was the one. Then I saw her going to different lockers.
A few minutes later, she brought over 10 different black boxes. I didn't know whether the system could appraise outer space items. Even if it could, I couldn't tell her.
Because I had never been to outer space. Then she stood opposite , on the other side of the desk.
"If you can appraise at least 3 items, then you are qualified," Manager Lara said.
Hearing that, I was stunned. Then I realized that so outer space items must have been placed here.
I picked one of the 10 boxes randomly before opening the cover. Then I saw a crystal ball with pink liquid swimming inside.
It was nothing like I had seen before. It was definitely an outer space item. So I silently used the probe function. The next second, the information appeared on the screen.
"It's the brain of an outer space creature," I said to myself.
I kept my outward expression calm. But inwardly, I was shocked to the core. Then I quickly controlled my emotions.
Under her gaze, I shook my head and moved over to the next item.
"I knew it," Lara thought.
She was familiar with so of the items here. Especially the pink crystal; it was brought here by an official mber. It belongs to outer space.
So it was impossible for any appraiser to identify it unless they were connected to the Mage Union. She then shifted her attention to the next item.
I opened the next box and found a tal piece. As usual, I didn't know the item. But I picked it up to inspect it. The tal had mixed colors of black and grey.
Then I used the system probe function again. The information appeared on the panel in front of .
"tal piece #072p. It was made by researchers of the Mage Union," I said to myself.
I was about to tell her out of curiosity, but then I stopped myself.
"What is it?" Lara asked.
"Lord Lara, it's just a tal piece. But I have seen it for the first ti," I replied. It was impossible for to say it was a product of the Mage Union.
I sighed inwardly. Then I moved over to the next black box. I removed the cover and saw a piece of bone inside. The bone piece was blood-red in color and the size of an entire arm.
Suddenly, I felt this was the item. If it wasn't the bone of an outer space creature, I would tell her. Then I used the system function.
The information appeared on the screen.
"Spinal bone fragnt of the Fla Forbidden Lizard," I was terrified at heart. It was not even a piece of bone but a bone fragnt. It was smaller than the whole bone piece.
I didn't want to touch it with my bare hand. The blood-red bone piece was inside glass, so I looked closely to make it seem believable.
A few minutes later,
"It's the bone of a lizard monster. But I don't know its exact magic level," I said to her.
Lara raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"How did you know?" she asked.
"I guess it's the bone piece that provides support to the spinal cord of a monster. But I'm not entirely sure about it," I answered.
"Okay, I'll check it." After saying that, she picked up the box and placed it on her side.
"You can continue," she said in a calm tone.
I nodded at her. I just needed to identify two more items, and then my job here would be secured. With hope ignited in my heart, I went to the next black box.
I removed the cover and saw another tal piece again. When I probed it with the system, the result was the sa: it was connected to the Mage Union.
So far, I have checked four boxes. Only six were left now.
