Hollow Knight: Hallownest
Chapter 65 Volunteers
After returning to the City of Tears, Mo Rong rushed to the Soul Sanctuary without stopping.
The reputation of this institute is well known in the City of Tears, and Mo Rong can get the route there by just asking a passerby.
You can easily reach the Soul Sanctuary by climbing up the Watcher's Spire and crossing a sky bridge built between the two buildings.
Just as Mo Rong was walking on the overpass with great expectations, the oncoming sentry told him bad news.
No entry is allowed to non-research personnel.
The status of the Soul Sanctuary is not low in the main city. It is a building that has existed since the early days of Hallownest. Scientific and technological progress is indispensable to the country. Under the selection of the White King, it was established by the Soul Master Soma. The scientific research team led by Si took root here and has developed to this day.
Ordinary people may not understand its status. It can be said that in the entire Hallownest, only a handful of people can enter the Soul Sanctuary without permission, except for researchers.
And in the City of Tears, there was only Lurien.
"That's right, I'm a researcher, I'm really good at reading people~"
As he said this, Mo Rong wanted to move forward, but was stopped by the sentry, who gave him a strange look, as if to say, 'Do I look like a fool to you?'
"Okay, brothers, I'm actually here to see the Soul Master and I have something important to report."
There was no other way, so Mo Rong had no choice but to panic and try to get through.
"Do you have the Master's Notes?"
Mo Rong shook his head. He had never seen the person before, so where did the letter come from?
"Sorry, we can't let you in without the master's code."
"Brother, I really have something important to do, can you please be accommodating?"
As he spoke, Murong took out some Geo and wanted to hand it to them, but the sentries didn't take it and still rejected Murong's request.
"Then how can we get in?"
The sentry was very surprised after hearing this. This man didn't look sick. Why did he want to go to the sanctuary so much?
"If you want to enter the institute, you have to take a detour to the communications office below to submit an application. You can only enter after being confirmed by the relevant personnel."
Seeing this, Mo Rong had no choice but to turn around and turn back, leaving the Watcher's Spire and heading towards another building.
The sanctuary is at the other end of the square, not too far away, just a short walk away.
Taking the elevator, Mo Rong looked at the sign and arrived at the entrance of the Soul Sanctuary. As expected, there was a workbench specially used for applications. At this time, there was a long queue in front.
"So many people want to go in?"
Mo Rong stood behind the team and couldn't help but muttered.
The people in front of him heard this, turned back to look at Mo Rong, and said in surprise:
"You, you are not the guard choice..."
Mo Rong quickly covered his mouth, picked up his cloak and covered it up, signaling the man to speak lower. He didn't want to make too much noise here.
The man nodded and said curiously:
"Brother Champion, why are you here too? Isn't the money given by the guards not enough for you?"
"I didn't work as a guard."
"what?"
His behavior was obviously not understood. After all, the man could not imagine that anyone would give up such a high-paying and honorable position.
"Then how can you become a senior sentinel with your martial arts skills? Why are you here?"
Murong heard that the man's words could not be separated from the meaning of lack of money, and asked quietly:
"You mean you are all here to get Geo?"
"Otherwise? Don't you know the news from the sanctuary?"
In this case, Mo Rong really didn't know. He hadn't stayed in the City of Tears much since the trial, and spent most of his time running around outside.
"I really don't know this, can you tell me?"
"Oh, this is not a rare thing. Not long ago, the Sanctuary issued an announcement, saying that it was recruiting volunteers to participate in soul experiments, and the subsidy was a full three hundred euros at a time!"
"Three hundred Geo?"
"Yes, and I heard that the experiment is harmless. That's three hundred euros. I may not be able to earn that much in a month!"
The man looked at Mo Rong and said solemnly, and then sighed again.
"Alas, even though the sanctuary has not released clear conditions, it only recruits four or five people every month. I don't know if I can be selected."
After listening to what the man said, he also understood the current situation.
Since he cannot enter the sanctuary as a researcher, he can only fight to enter as a volunteer.
The team moved forward very slowly. Everyone who wanted to sign up had to enter a side room. They didn't know what they were going to do. Anyway, it took a lot of time. It seems that no one came out with a smile so far.
After waiting for a long time, I finally reached Mo Rong.
"Brother champion, wish me good luck."
"Ah."
Nodding, the person he was chatting with just now followed the staff into the side room anxiously. Mo Rong took a look inside while he opened the door, but unfortunately he didn't find anything special.
After a while, the man finally walked out of the room, but he was different from the previous one because he came out smiling.
"Brother champion, I passed! I passed!"
Although he could barely control his volume, his joy was uncontrollable.
The staff on the side heard what the man said, and looked at Mo Rong unconsciously, then glanced aside as if they were thinking about something.
"congratulations."
Mo Rong responded with a smile and walked up to the staff.
"Hello, I'm also here to take the test as a volunteer."
"Well, please come with me."
The staff greeted Mo Rong into the room and handed him an inconspicuous jar.
"Please put your hand into this jar. I will check the data after a moment. Please do not pull it out before that."
After saying that, he motioned to Mo Rong to do as he was told. Although he was doubtful, he still carefully put his hand in. The touch inside felt like...
A pool of liquid?
The staff moved a stool for Mo Rong, and he walked to the table not far away, picked up a pen and wrote and drew on the paper above.
"If this person is a champion, he should be of high value."
The man's back was turned to Mo Rong, and the secret joy in his eyes was undisguised. Looking at the names written on the list, he had already begun to think about the future in his mind.
Mo Rong on the other side was also bored. When the staff member wasn't paying attention, he quietly pulled out his hand and looked inside with the light not far away.
After taking a rough look, he saw nothing. He looked closer and it was okay not to look. When he saw the contents of the jar clearly, Mo Rong was shocked!
Void matter!
There is actually a pool of void matter in this jar! How could people in the Soul Sanctuary have such a thing? !
Seeing that the staff not far away was about to turn around, Mo Rong quickly inserted his hand into the jar again.
No, if it's void matter, why didn't anything happen to those people who came to test it just now?
Two possibilities.
Either he made a mistake, this might just be a black substance that simply detects the body.
Either the void material is not pure. If this is the case, Mo Rong must find a way to enter the Soul Sanctuary.
Because this thing is very likely to come from the snail shaman!
"Okay, take your hands out, Gong..."
The staff member took the jar away from him without even looking at it. When he was about to place it on the table and tell Mo Rong that he was hired, he turned around and caught a glimpse of the value displayed on the jar.
and many more!
His pupils dilated instantly. How could this be the case? !
Mo Rong saw the man pause for a moment while holding the jar, then put it aside and turned around to continue what he had not finished before.
"Congratulations, you are hired. Please pay attention to the notice board at the bottom of the tower. We will announce the experimental time. Please come on time."
This result was not surprising to Mo Rong. After he saw that the jar contained void matter, he knew the purpose of this test.
The Soul Sanctuary is looking for void matter, or in other words, they are looking for people with void matter!
Mo Rong nodded to indicate that he understood, then turned around and walked out.
The staff looked at his leaving figure, and the emotions in their eyes changed. They were no longer as happy as before, but more of a pity.
"Hey, this is the champion, how come we are matched?"
"If his soul is extracted, maybe the master's research can be improved to a higher level."
After suppressing the strangeness in his eyes, the staff once again greeted the next candidate.
Although it is a pity, the work must continue. After all, the soul master asked the scholar to explain before.
The soul fusion plan still needs to be carried out.
