Jason logged back into the game, he had lost 6 hours worth of training and grinding so he needed to work extra hard to regain them.

[logged in as Arch]

[entering WOW]

For the past few days, Jason was still at the rose knights barracks, he was training his butt off and gaining allot of stats on the way. He had spent most of his time at the gym and he had done the agility course 2 more times.

When he went down the course the second time he was expecting another giant monster gorilla but was instead meet with three normal monkeys chasing him. Although they were fast and worked together Jason was able to easily out swing them and jumped off in the waterfall with no hesitation. Every time he jumped off in the waterfall he would attempt to go toward the dark spots he saw behind the waterfall but unfortunately, he wasn't able to and lunged down to the lake. He also tried to explore the lake but couldn't hold his breathe long enough and decided to postpone it for later.

There was one more training center that Jason hadn't seen yet and Charlie was going to show him it. They hiked up a few large hills again defended into a few valleys went through winding trails and more. Eventually, they arrived at a large tower. Every part about the tower looked like a wizard tower. With its pointed cone on the top, to the cobblestone walls and even the mysterious entrance that had all sorts of creatures carved around it.

Charlies stopped in front of the tower entrance and turned to Jason

"This is the intelligence training center, it's widely used by the rose mages in training, but the blue barrack trainees are known to use this place allot. You should discover what the trial is about yourself."

After saying that Charlie pushed Jason toward the entrance and left.

Jason looked at the wizard tower which looked a bit sinister to him for a second and walked in.

[Welcome to the tower of intelligence]

[as a newcomer you are automatically sent to the first floor, please discover the uses of the first floor as you begin your conquest of the tower]

Jason opened his eyes he was in a library. Shelves and shelves of books were laid out in front of him. Books of all sorts were laid out in front of him. Jason walked around and could see mage trainees studying here, what was even more surprising to Jason was that he couldn't find the end. He could keep on walking but he would always find some new shelf or section of books and more mage trainee students studying.

After exploring the library Jason started to look at the contents of the books themselves. The books had everything from History of the continent to magic and its uses. Jason walked down and could see sections just dedicated to one specific style of magic. It was a goldmine of knowledge1 Jason just didn't know how he could cram everything in like he wanted to. And that was when Boops came to the rescue.

'Jason buy the Book translation subsystem now!'

"you're a lifesaver Boops"

'less talking, more reading'

[you have bought the Book translation subsystem for 3000 points]

[you have 2 points left]

'%^&*^*&()*(^&*'

Boops endured the pain while Jason comforted him.

Even though the subsystem was outrageously expensive it was 100% worth it. Jason started running around grabbing books for whatever subject interested him. Languages cooking swordsmanship history of the continent. Blacksmithing, Archery, treasure hunting skills.

The table that Jason had selected started to fill with books and started to stack up until you couldn't see the table buried underneath all of the books.

When Jason thought he had enough for the first round he sat down and picked up a book. When he opened the book a light appeared in his eyes and started scanning the entire book. It took a few seconds but

[you have learned about the history of the continent]

[+1 intelligence +1 knowledge of the continent]

Yup the system was going to OP in the situation.

[you have read a book about swordsmanship]

[+1 level swordsmanship +1 intelligence]

Jason learned so much that he even started to lose track of everything that he had read. Thankfully Boops retained all of the information and could tell Jason anytime. Jason didn't know why he didn't get any the skills but he was fine with how his intelligence increase by 7 points in one go.

Jason got up and started looking around, he saw a large door in the middle of the library where numerous people were lining up. Jason assumed that it was the entrance to the 2 floors and where he would have to start the "conquest" as the system had put it.

Jason lined up watching the people who were lining up and the people who were exciting carefully. The people who left were dejected and they looked tired like they were barraged by annoying questions. Most of the people lining up were in mage robes and they were carefully looking over their notes or reciting chants and verse of something Jason had no idea about. He had read numerous books on magic but he still didn't have any of the skills which annoyed him.

Jason really wanted to go back and start reading more books. But he decided that he should first go and figure out the true meaning of the tower of intelligence.
