MTL - The Last King of Darkness-Chapter 6 dream
Inexplicably, Rhodes remembered the swallowed soul in the dream, and a chill suddenly appeared in his heart.
If possible, Rhodes wanted to retreat now.
But this is impossible. The memory cannot be recovered temporarily, which means that he is always in great and unstable danger.
And Jinworth College is so important, becoming a student of it will add a layer of protection to some extent.
Not only that, the strange words in the dream, he also needs to find the answer in Jinworth College.
All things considered, this is indeed his best choice.
Rhode was uneasy, not knowing what the future was waiting for him.
After a while, the aunt stopped in front of a high wall, and a man in a red hat stopped her.
This was also the first person Rhode saw in Wangcheng.
"Youther, the last trial of fire is underway, and it is not allowed to approach here."
Uther gave a wide smile.
"Gao Wen, am I not allowed either?"
"No one is allowed."
"what about this?"
Rhode clearly saw what the aunt put something in his hand.
But he still shook his head: "Youther, this is a matter of principle. The children here are our hopes for the future. Although I believe in you, I still can't let you in."
Youser smiled and said, "Gao Wen, you misunderstood, I just want you to send this child in and let him participate in the final trial."
"No, this is out of order. The trial of fire is strictly composed of the first test, the second test, and the final test. You can't skip the first two links."
"He passed the first test and the second test."
"Who measured it?"
"I."
"What about the trial certificate?"
"Here." Uther wrote a copy to him on the spot.
"...do you think I'm an idiot?"
A surprised expression appeared on Uther's disc-like face: "Isn't it?"
Gao Wen's face darkened suddenly, Aunt Uther forcibly stuffed her handwritten certificate into him, and said with a smile, "Gao Wen, you should know about my abilities, the characteristics of bright light, the fifth-level psionic power, the most powerful among the graduates of the same period. Excellent, with full marks in all three subjects and twelve subjects, one of the thirty-two central medical practitioners of the Healing Sect, and was also selected as the first beauty in Rose Street, of course, I will not mention these trivial things."
"I just want to tell you that there is absolutely nothing wrong with the person I have tested. He will be a seed of fire, will bloom with splendid fireworks, and will light up the future with us."
Gao Wen obviously looked hesitant. He couldn't find any new words, so he could only repeat: "But this is out of order."
Yosser stuffed a large amount of shiny silver into his hand again: "Does it fit?"
Gawain's expression became serious: "No, I am fair and honest, and my character is very noble."
Uther snorted and stuffed his other hand too.
"But I can't just watch a fire that would have been lit go out. Leave this to me."
"Don't linger, time is running out, send him in quickly, once the Holy Grail of Fire is extinguished, it will be next year when it is rekindled."
Gawain immediately picked up Rhodes, pinched him under his ribs, turned and ran towards the corridor under the high wall.
Aunt Uther shouted from behind: "Little guy, remember to go back to Uther Medical Center when you have time, and I will cure you."
Before Rhodes could answer, his eyes darkened and he entered the corridor.
The corridor was very narrow and long, and had a high slope, but the fair and honest Gawain was like walking on the ground, and quickly sent him out of the corridor.
The moment the door was opened, strong light poured out, and it took Rhode several seconds to get used to it.
This is a very large and very bright square, and there are many teenagers about his age standing in the square, men and women, lined up neatly in square formations.
Right in front of the square is a grand palace-like building with rough style, no detailed decoration, no elaborate carvings, and each component is ten times the size of a normal building, which looks very majestic.
There were many adults who were also dressed in red, and one of them with a crown came up to him and asked.
"Gao Wen, who is this? Why aren't you at your post?"
Gao Wen bowed slightly.
"His Excellency the Chief Priest, this child is delayed, I will send him in."
The chief priest was a tall, thin and sinister man. His eagle-like eyes immediately stared at Rhodes' face and asked coldly, "Who is the examiner? Where is the trial certificate?"
"Uther Ironthorn of Rose Street."
Gawain handed over her handwritten trial certificate with both hands.
The chief priest only glanced at it, then waved: "Arrange in the first queue." Turned and walked away.
Gawain led Rhodes to the front of the queue and left.
There was a slight commotion in the team, and the boys and girls turned their curious eyes and looked at this new uninvited guest.
Rhodes smiled at them friendly, and received a breath of air.
Although no one spoke, from their shining eyes, Rhode saw emotions such as amazement, envy, amazement, jealousy, etc., but there was no hatred or numbness. It was a normal teenager and girl mentality.
This may seem ordinary, but it is extremely unusual.
Just as children in war-torn areas hear the sound of firecrackers, the first reaction is to hide under the table, while children in peaceful areas run to watch the fun.
The environment has a great influence on people, especially children.
And it is an incredible miracle in itself that a teenager who grew up in a kingdom that has always faced strong external threats and never sees the light of day can be like a normal person.
"There must be something unusual about this human polity."
Rhodes pondered, and didn't pay much attention to their eyes. Now he has only passed a small test, and he still doesn't know what the final exam will be like.
Before their own safety and destiny, everything is a small matter.
After a while, a Hong Doufeng priest came over and said loudly, "The first team, enter the candidate room."
There was a small amount of commotion in the quiet square, and the teenagers in the first team were very excited. They followed behind the priest Hong Doufeng and walked into the tall palace.
The interior of the palace is very wide, the ceiling is so high that it is invisible, and the flames burning on the huge stone pillars dispel every shadow.
The priest took them to a side hall and said, "The final trial of the trial of fire is about to begin. When the trumpet sounds, you step into the main hall and touch the Holy Grail of Fire in sequence according to the order of the chief priest. Do you understand?"
"Understood." The boys replied in unison.
The priest nodded, turned and left the side hall, leaving only the boys and girls in this room.
They looked at each other with curiosity in their eyes.
A small buzzing sound appeared soon, just like the classroom after the head teacher left. The teenagers couldn't hold back their excitement and eagerly wanted to communicate with the people around them.
But for a moment, the side hall became full of people, and they excitedly exchanged everything they saw and heard, exchanged all the information they knew, and imagined the future they expected.
"...I heard that the city defense army is going to be expanded. It doesn't need to be too high to enter, and the ninth-level combatants can get a weekly salary of 800."
"But the city defense army has requirements for soul characteristics, what if yours is not?"
"Then I will join the Expedition Corps, and the salary will be doubled. In a few years, I will be able to bring my parents to Shangcheng, live in a big house, and light a big magic lamp."
"The casualty rate of the expedition legion is very high..."
"The pension is also high."
…
"Hey, did you know? Qianhu Town is haunted again."
"It's here again? Didn't the outer defense just strengthen? Didn't the War Department send a hunting team over there?"
"It was sent. I heard that it was sent three times, but none were found."
"No, the price of meat is going to go up again?"
…
"What if you don't ignite the soul?"
"Impossible. The first two tests have done all-round tests on our souls. Even if we can't become Spirit Fire, Spark Fire will be fine."
"But I heard from my brother that there were many failures in the final exam."
"That must have been a queue jumper or cheating to come in, that's the dumbest, no one can cheat fire, they're cheating themselves."
…
Rhode listened quietly. This is the best way to get information, which can help him quickly understand the kingdom.
Suddenly, a beautiful girl wearing long leather boots, a long beige dress, and dazzling blond hair came to him and extended her hand generously.
"Good day, I'm Kashan from Mibor. It's a pleasure to meet you. My dream is to join the Knights and become an elite white knight."
There was a small exclamation around, as if this was a very high goal.
Rhodes blinked, and had no choice but to stand up, hold her fair and slender little hand, and speak the way she spoke.
"...Good day, I'm... uh, Rhodes from Red Rock Village, nice to meet you."
After speaking, he was about to sit down, but found that the blond girl Kashan was holding his hand, her smooth little hand was very strong, and her light blue eyes were staring at him.
"You haven't said your dream yet."
Rhode scratched his head: "I have lost my memory, and I don't even know what you said."
This sentence immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Amnesia? Is it possible to heal the nun?"
"Wow...the innocent and beautiful young man with amnesia!"
Kashan's eyes flashed and she said in a slightly brisk tone.
"Let me tell you briefly, I hope to hear your choice."
"Once we become cadets at Kingworth College, we will automatically get the status of combatant reserve. Most of the cadets will become combatants after graduation, and a few will become logistics personnel or production personnel."
"Generally speaking, there are five legions that fighters can enter, namely the City Defense Legion, the Expedition Legion, the Survey Legion, the Knights, and the Night's Watch."
"The City Defense Corps, the Expedition Corps, and the Survey Corps are the three main armies, and the Night's Watch Corps is a special army."
"And the Knights are the smallest and most elite."
Cassan stared at Rhodes with glittering eyes, and the answer she wanted to hear was self-evident.
Rhodes is also very kind.
"Knights."
There was a slight smile on Kashan's delicate face.
"I'm glad our choices are the same. My mother is the central healer of the Healing Order. She may be able to cure your amnesia."
Rhode didn't care too much, Aunt Uther was also a central medical practitioner, and she was not cured, but multiple paths are always good.
"thanks."
Kashan said a little arrogantly: "No thanks."
The girl turned and left.
Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief and was about to continue listening when he saw six or seven girls gathered around him.
Seeing their gleaming eyes, it was obvious that they were plotting something wrong, but Rhode was not in the mood to entangle with them now.
"Good day, I'm Rhode from Hongshi Village, can you get to know me?"
A look of surprise broke out on the gray-haired boy's face for a moment.
He hurriedly stood up and held Rhode's hand, so excited that he was incoherent.
"Dang, Dang, of course, I am Nigga Village... No no, Wayne from Hei Niu Village, nice to meet you."
Rhode said with a smile: "Brother, don't be nervous, we are just chatting, I have lost my memory, and I can't remember many things, can you tell me about it?"
The gray-haired young man Wayne murmured, "But... but I don't know much. It's been ten years since Heiniu Village has seen a fireman. They all know better than me..."
"It's okay, just chat, maybe everything you say is new to me."
"Um."
Wayne responded and suddenly became happy, UU reading www.uukanshu.com hummed harder.
For the next short period of time, Rhodes was thinking, listening, and chatting.
Of course, most of the time he still listens, only occasionally asking questions or making cooperative exclamations.
What made him happy was that the gray-haired boy knew much more than he thought, and he spoke very basicly, which was very suitable for a novice like him who didn't understand anything.
And the gray-haired young Wayne was also very happy. He never thought that he would be interested in these old-fashioned things.
Because he is too old-fashioned, he has no friends for a long time, and no one wants to chat with him. Rhode is a shining star in his eyes, a leader who will be sought after, but he came to The first person after Wangcheng who is willing to chat with him.
Well, chatting must be the most interesting thing in the world.
Wayne struggled to remember how he felt when he was exposed to the information, trying to tell what he already knew from the perspective of someone with complete amnesia.
This approach achieved very good results, and Rhode even put most of his energy into the dialogue with him in the end.
Just as Rhodes quickly got the information, a fat red-haired man came over, glanced at them, and said in an arrogant tone.
"Don't be with that black cow village, Rhodes, you'll soon know that there will be a huge gap between firefighters, friends are very important, follow me, I'm Manolo Robana. Human shit."
He raised his chin, as if waiting for Rhodes' exclamation.
Rod almost suspected that he had heard it wrong, biting his tongue and repeating the pronunciation.
"Human... dung?"
What does it mean? Does it make a point of emphasizing that you are human **** and not something else?
