[Holy Knight]?
He actually got it. Minori first felt a sense of satisfaction, followed by a look of unexpected surprise in his eyes.
He originally just had a try-it-and-see attitude. The occupations of the several leaders of the "Holy Knight Order" were not difficult to guess.
What interested Minori was nothing more than the mid-tier occupation [Holy Knight] and [Exorcist], which he wasn't sure was low-tier or mid-tier.
Except for the latter occupation, which only Remedios possessed, the [Holy Knight]occupation was not uncommon.
The current Vice-Captain Gustavo also possessed it.
After a brief exchange.
Minori left under the pretext of needing to recover his magic power after just finishing refining a potion, and leaned against Kuro at the location of Kuro's resting spot, appearing to be resting.
In reality.
His attention was already on the attribute panel.
"Job Change!"
Minori silently recited in his heart. He had wanted to acquire this occupation for a long time, but he simply hadn't had the opportunity before.
If it were a high-tier occupation, Minori wouldn't have job changed under everyone's noses, but the little bit of attributes increased by an ordinary mid-tier occupation wouldn't be revealed due to the suppression of the [Ninja]occupation.
'Buzz——'
'Job Change to [Holy Knight], requires prerequisite basic occupation [Paladin]'
'Prerequisite occupation already possessed, job change successful!'
Minori's eyes shone slightly, with faint holy light flashing from them.
Occupation: Holy Knight Level: Mid-tier Occupation Ability Effects:
Passive ·
"Power of Faith": When HP drops to half, immediately recover 10% of HP, recovery magic can additionally increase the effect by 100%.

Looking at the information displayed by [Holy Knight].
"Two passives? That's one more passive than [Sword Saint]and [Shaman Mentor]I acquired before."
Minori's expression was calm, but he was still a little surprised. After checking all the information, he revealed a slight smile imperceptibly:
"As expected of a Paladin-type occupation, the direction of the passive ability and the increased values are completely geared towards being a meat shield."
Except for the "Power of Faith" passive, which was eye-catching, the other abilities were all of the mediocre type.
"Increasing 1 level also increases the depth of the experience bar, from the original 410,000 to 460,000."
"2 million experience points, I have to level up the occupation first before downgrading and washing away the [Sword Saint]occupation."
Minori thought with some heartache.
Back then, after leveling up [Sword Saint]to level 10, it triggered the high-tier occupation [Magic Swordsman].
Now that he possesses the basic occupation [Paladin], coupled with the mid-tier occupation [Holy Knight], he should be able to trigger a high-tier occupation.
This kind of normal occupation advancement triggering method.
He didn't dare to use it before, after all, there was no way to downgrade.
"The traditional occupation advancement method is still easier to explore." Minori had a thought in his mind and began to level up.
[Holy Knight Lv2]
[Experience Bar: 1702396 / 510000]
[Holy Knight Lv3]
[Experience Bar: 1192396 / 560000]
Comprehensive Level 51
[Holy Knight Lv4]
[Experience Bar: 562396 / 630000]
Skill Points: 72
"Oh?"
Minori noticed that the depth of the experience bar changed after leveling up to level 50, from an increase of 50,000 per level to an increase of 70,000.
He continued to activate [Ninja]'s passive "Concealment Expertise", quickly suppressing the aura fluctuations after rapidly leveling up.
He raised his head.
The sky had completely darkened, and the crowd did not light a fire, allowing the moonlight to shine on the Holy Knights' armor, reflecting a cold white light.
Seeing that no one had noticed the movement on his side, Minori was certain in his heart: "I didn't expect to have such good luck this time."
Acquiring occupations by touching weapons is one of the methods Minori has mastered for acquiring occupations!
It's just that Minori rarely uses this method.
One is that the occupations acquired by touching weapons are uncertain, and most of them are basic occupations.
Two is that this method is too troublesome, far less convenient and concealed than acquiring skills through skill points and then indirectly acquiring occupations.
The only advantage is that it can save skill points.
Too bad.
[Genius] directly converts all basic occupations. Before mastering the downgrading technique, Minori would not casually job change to a mid-tier occupation, so he rarely used this method.
In fact, this is not the biggest problem.
The biggest difference between "job changing by touching weapons" and "job changing with skill points" lies in high-tier occupations!
Take [Cursed Knight] as an example.
"Job changing by touching weapons" requires possessing a prerequisite occupation before job changing. There is no problem with mid-tier occupations,
because [Genius] exists.
But high-tier occupations won't work, lacking the prerequisite mid-tier occupation.
"Job changing with skill points" does not have this problem.
Due to the special circumstances existing in the other world, it is not necessary to be like the game. You can learn skills first, and then acquire occupations through skills, without the requirement of prerequisite occupations.
No fire was lit.
Making the area where the crowd was stationed dim. Most demihumans can see normally in the dark, but humans don't have such abilities.
Everyone present was not ordinary, and by the moonlight, they could still clearly see things nearby.
Pabel, as the only archer who could maintain vision at night, was specifically responsible for night watch.
Minori's team, Go Gin, Orlando, gathered together and sat on the ground, each holding a water bag and eating some hardened bread.
"We haven't encountered a single undead yet, that's really strange."
Orlando put his bull-horned helmet on his knees, pinched the water bag and took a big gulp of water, wondering.
"This instead indicates something bad." Minori said softly.
"What do you mean?"
Orlando's face, like a rock that has been weathered for many years, showed a look of doubt.
Go Gin's expression was serious.
"This means that the large group of undead are gathering together." Minori swallowed the bread in his mouth and said unhurriedly.
"Hmm~"
Just then, light footsteps came from behind.
Clementine, wrapped in a black robe and with a happy smile on her face, strode over: "Hi, little brother,
Troll, Big Beard, female demihuman, and — — — — — well, never mind."
Clementine smiled, her eyes narrowed as she scanned the group, greeting them with a playful nickname. When her gaze finally landed on Anri, she completely ignored her.
"Hey, hey!"
Orlando raised his head in displeasure, his thick beard and eyebrows seeming even more prominent, his face revealing a wild air.
"I don't like being given nicknames so casually."
"Is that so, Big Beard?"
Clementine grinned and sat down next to Minori as if no one else was there. She sniffed the air, ignored Orlando, and turned her head.
"Little brother, your scent seems to have gotten a bit stronger."
"Is that so?"
Minori continued to munch on his bread, replying calmly, "Perhaps it's because I haven't showered."
"Ah hahaha!"
Orlando couldn't help but burst out laughing at this response.
Clementine glared at Orlando, "Want to fight?"
"Sure."
A rough, unyielding voice replied.
Screech-
A piercing screech suddenly echoed from overhead.
Immediately afterward, the boundary magic set up around the perimeter was triggered, emitting a red glow that stood out starkly against the night.
Almost at the same time!
"Enemy attack!!"Pabel's roar rang out.
Boom!
The air was pierced.
A barrage of arrows radiating white light flew into the sky, seemingly colliding with some kind of creature, followed by a muffled thud.
Everyone reacted instantly!
"Holy Light!"
"Holy Light!"
Several magic chanters from the clergy simultaneously released their spells.
A gentle, non-blinding holy white light suddenly illuminated the night, instantly brightening the entire area.
Even the magical creatures in the sky were clearly visible.
They were skeletal vultures, low-level undead creatures composed entirely of bone, with sparse, pale white hair around their necks, capable of flight.
There were at least a hundred of them!
This group of skeletal vultures had been flying high in the sky, so they weren't discovered until they were directly above everyone's heads.
The range and power of "Holy Light" were limited, so it couldn't affect the skeletal vultures hovering in the sky.
Puff— Puff—
Perhaps influenced by the "Holy Light," the once-calm ground began to writhe on a large scale.
White bone claws or rotting bodies crawled out from beneath the surface.
Undead creatures continuously emerged from all directions as far as the eye could see.
"Paladin Order, prepare for battle!" Remedios shouted, holding her holy sword.
"Clergy! Prepare to engage!"
Kelart followed closely behind, issuing orders.
"Attack, eliminate these filthy creatures!" Captain Nigun was even more blunt.
In an instant!
Streams of white, holy light surged forth, and a total of 280 second-tier Guardian Angels were summoned.
The white, sacred light re-illuminated the night sky, which had dimmed after the "Holy Light" dissipated, and each Guardian Angel resembled a pillar of light.
The sight was inexplicably awe-inspiring!
Like the clergy, the Sunlight Scripture didn't summon third-tier angels; instead, they summoned the less mana-intensive Guardian Angels first.
!
Humm!
Humm!
The 280 Guardian Angels scattered and flew out, attacking the undead creatures crawling out of the ground, while a portion flew straight up into the sky to fight the skeletal vultures.
Minori stood up, watching the undead creatures fighting the angels around him. "They're all ordinary undead, not very strong."
"Everyone, watch your feet. Undead might emerge from underground."
Minori reminded them.
The others also stood up, cautiously looking around.
Clementine excitedly surveyed her surroundings, as if searching for an enemy that would interest her.
However!
The imagined fierce battle didn't occur. The number of undead wasn't too large, only about five or six hundred, including the skeletal vultures flying in the sky.
Under the attacks of the stronger, more effective Guardian Angels, they were completely annihilated in less than ten minutes.
Some of that time was even wasted on the undead being too scattered!
"What a disappointment," Clementine said boredly, resting her arms behind her head.
"These undead are so weak."
"It feels like I could kill them with one strike!"
"That's right, it doesn't seem difficult at all."
"Ha, even if there were tens of thousands of undead of this level, we could handle it."
Quiet discussions arose from various places from time to time.
The unexpectedly easy situation made everyone's tense nerves feel inexplicably incredulous, as if they hadn't expected this potentially deadly mission to be so easy.
However, some people looked very solemn!
Kelart's eyes flickered, her nostrils slightly wrinkled, and dangerous light reflected in her light green pupils.
"Those skeletal vultures—they're being controlled!"
On the other side,
Minori noticed the quickly cleared undead and glanced at the Guardian Angels patrolling in mid-air, a look of understanding flashing across his face.
"So that's it, is that what they're planning to do!"
"It's dangerous!"
Minori's gaze sharpened as he realized something, and he looked up to meet Kelart's eyes.
The relaxed atmosphere didn't last long!
About an hour later, the once-calm ground began to shake again, and the screeching of skeletal vultures filled the sky.
This time, there were even more undead, appearing like black shadows, attacking the group.
And in that hour, the Guardian Angels summoned by the clergy's magic chanters had long since disappeared.
The normal lifespan of summoned creatures couldn't exceed an hour.
"Hmph!"
Captain Nigun snorted coldly, his eyes filled with disgust and killing intent towards the undead.
"Offer your faith to God!"
The members of the Sunlight Scripture made simple prayer gestures, and holy magical fluctuations reappeared on their bodies.
"Stop!"
"Wait!"
Kelart and Minori spoke at the same time.
Everyone paused, looking at them in confusion.
"Lord Nigun, we must not waste mana now. The enemy is using the tactic of attacking in waves to deplete our mana."
Kelart said sternly, looking at Minori, "Team Leader Minori, you must have the same thought."
"That's right."
"Now, not only must we conserve mana, but we must also leave this place as soon as possible; otherwise, we will only be constantly harassed by waves of undead."
Minori's expression was equally serious. "We need to rendezvous with the demi-humans as soon as possible!"
