Chapter Eighty-Six: The Knight School
You must know that the knightly training that commoners want to receive must first be knighted and subordinate to nobles.
And even if you become a knight, whether the nobles can teach you the training method is another matter, unless you swear allegiance to the noble, otherwise the chances of obtaining the training method are very small.
Or maybe the civilians themselves get the previous inheritance from the ruins, but this kind of thing can only be encountered by people with great luck, and ordinary people don't have this luck.
So the advent of this knightly school gave civilians a chance, a chance to change their fate as long as they stretched out their hands.
Of course, this is just the imagination of some civilians, and not all people who enter the knight school can become transcendent when they come out.
Becoming extraordinary depends not only on qualifications and opportunities, but also on the family's economic situation.
No matter what kind of profession you have, you must first exercise your body, and only a strong body can withstand enough strength, agility and spirit.
And the best way to exercise for the body in the first place is to eat.
Eat all kinds of nutritious food, eat all kinds of precious meats, and use these foods to nourish your body, so as to achieve the purpose of strengthening your body quickly.
Therefore, this knight school only gives the civilian children a stepping stone to enter the transcendent realm, and the rest of the distance and whether they can open the gate of the transcendent is up to their own affairs.
But this stepping stone alone is enough to drive all the civilians in the North crazy.
Moreover, students who graduated from the academy only needed to serve the principality for ten years to be free, which was much more cost-effective than a lifetime of loyalty to the nobles.
Although this academy is still in preparation, it is only accepting some aristocratic students for the trial operation of the school, and it is estimated that it will be open in the past few years.
Therefore, some wealthy businessmen or commoners came to Shodria early to seize their place, wanting their children to join the first batch of students of the academy.
Although some people questioned at first whether this was a hoax, they all obediently shut their mouths when they saw that it was Archduke Xavier himself who became the head of the academy.
In just over a decade, the Grand Duke Xavier had established great prestige in the north, and his policies were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, winning the support of nobles and commoners.
So seeing that this academy was actually opened by Archduke Xavier, no one questioned its authenticity anymore.
However, there is a frenzied influx of Sydraria, and there are also those who stand and watch from other cities.
These people are not questioning the authenticity of the school, but want to see how effective the school is.
But they don't want their children to be used as experiments, so they want to wait and see what happens.
However, the families who moved to Shodria were only a minority, and the most enthusiastic about this kind of thing were the other children of the small aristocratic family who did not have the right to inherit.
They didn't enter the academy for the sake of an extraordinary cultivation method, but to see if they had a chance to get close to that Grand Duke Xavier.
It is conceivable that in the next period of time, Shudria will definitely enter a period of development, and it is only a matter of time before it becomes a "holy city" in the north.
Therefore, it is a good choice for mercenaries to buy real estate or hone their skills to prepare for entering the knight school.
Of course, it is not excluded that some people want to continue to be mercenaries, everyone has their own ambitions, and this kind of thing cannot be forced.
For example, Il, who we are most familiar with, is reporting this to his captain.
"You mean you want to go to that knight's school?" Dorn asked Il, lying in the carriage.
Now the mercenary captain can't sit for a long time because of his injury, so he can only use this posture to talk to his subordinates.
"Yes Captain!" said Il, with a serious face, "but I want to stay in the mercenary team after graduating from that school." ”
"That's right," a pensive look appeared on Dorne's face, "But isn't it much better to serve the Duchy than to stay in the mercenary team?"
At first, Il thought that his captain was sarcastic about him, and he just wanted to say no, but when he looked up, he saw the sincere eyes of his captain.
The rugged captain was genuinely thinking about him, not sarcastically mocking the players who wanted to leave.
Looking at the captain's rugged face, Il seemed to have come to that rainy night five years ago, and this man also looked at himself sincerely with such eyes.
"Hey, boy, do you want to come with me, although I don't have much money, it's okay to have enough to eat. ”
At that time, Il, who was squatting next to the garbage can, looked at the man with a rough face in front of him, as if he saw the sun he had been pursuing.
"Il?Il?"
Dorne's voice pulled Eir's consciousness back from his memories to reality.
"Hmm, what's wrong, Captain!" said Il.
"I said you better think about it again, although the mercenaries are very free, but there is really no future, you are still young. Dorne persuaded bitterly.
"Don't think about it. Ilr shook his head and said, "Captain, I've already decided. ”
"Ahh ”
Hearing this, Il smiled happily: "Thank you, Captain!"
"Don't be in a hurry to rejoice. Dorn immediately poured cold water on Il: "After more than ten years, maybe there will be a mercenary team or not, it's a question." ”
"It's sure to be fine with the captain here!" replied Il, in no uncertain terms.
"Stinky boy! Get out! Lao Tzu shouldn't be a mercenary for a lifetime! Get out of here!"
With Dorne's laughter and scolding, Il panicked and escaped from Dorne's carriage with a relieved smile on his face.
"It's good to have spirit!" he sighed in his heart.
......
In the carriage where Cook was resting, Cook leaned into the carriage, and Cass sat quietly beside him.
"Brother Cook, are you really not going back with me?" asked Cass softly.
"No, I still have a job to do. Cook said with a slight shake of his head.
"But your body..."
Cass's tone was full of worry, after all, Cook was like this because of himself, and his heart was full of guilt.
"Out of the way. Cook's tone was decisive: "I know my body..."
"Is the mission really that important?" Cass couldn't understand the stubbornness of the man in front of him.
Hearing Cass's words, a smile appeared on Cook's indifferent face.
"My qualifications have not been good since I was a child, so the teacher has worked me, and I feel guilty about the teacher and them, if I can't do this little thing well, I might as well die. ”
Cass didn't know what expression to use to respond to Cook's words, so he could only bow his head and remain silent.
Cook had grown up with the young man in front of him, and looking at his face, Cook knew that the other party hadn't listened to him.
He can also understand that this young man in front of him, like his younger brother, no matter who has been thrown by his father for several years, will be a little rebellious to his father's orders.
That's right, Cass's face at this time is completely different from the face he showed outside, he is a young man who looks only about twenty years old.
But Cook didn't say much, after all, it was someone's family matter, and he didn't want to interject, and after the father and son met, maybe any misunderstanding would be solved.
"How's Uncle Buffy doing?"
Cook was the first to speak to break the silence and ask Cass about Buffy's physical condition.
"The physical characteristics are still very stable, but I just haven't woken up. Cass replied after a moment's thought.
"That's good, you don't have to worry too much, when you return to Shodrea, the master will have a way. ”
Cook comforted the young man in front of him, for fear that too much pressure would crush him.
"I'm fine. Cass looked up and a smile appeared on his face, "Although I am still not very skilled, I have been exposed to this kind of thing in the Church Federation at that time. ”
"Speaking of which..."
Hearing Cass's words, Cook also became interested and tilted his body slightly.
"Can you tell me about your practice at the church?"
"What's there to say about this kind of thing. ”
Despite Cass's disgust, Cook patiently talked about his years of experience in the Church Federation.
The two of them are here, one is talking, one is listening, like a wanderer returning home telling his relatives about everything he has experienced over the years.
......
Zhao Xi opened his eyes, and what greeted him was still the familiar simple carriage, and there was still a girl sleeping beside him.
However, the difference from yesterday is that the simple carriage has an extra layer of blankets, and both of them also have small blankets to cover their bodies.
Last night was Zhao Xi's vigil, because he was the only one who was in good condition, so the burden naturally fell on him.
However, because of the blanket, Zhao Xi rested relatively well last night.
This is also due to the fact that nothing has happened in the past two days, just like all the creatures of the Black Forest are really dead, let alone the more powerful monsters, not even a rabbit they have seen.
Although the atmosphere is a little weird, the older mercenaries know that this is the norm in the Black Forest.
The experience of the previous few days made them think that they were not coming from the Black Forest, but some kind of forbidden area of life.
But fortunately, they have all survived, and looking at the appearance of the past two days, the next journey should not be a big problem.
Zhao Xi naturally didn't know these things, he just simply felt that the two days were really worry-free, that is, he had less experience.
He slowly pushed the door open, afraid to wake up Dorothy, who was still asleep.
After Zhao Xi jumped out of the car, he turned around and closed the car door, and was thinking about what to eat today.
At this moment, his peripheral vision swept to a familiar figure, and the appearance of this figure made him move.
The clerical girl who was still in a coma last night was skillfully preparing breakfast at this time, and her busy figure made Zhao Xi wonder if she hadn't woken up.
"Woke up?"
"Woke up. ”
"When you wake up, come over and help!"
Hearing the familiar tone, a smile appeared on Zhao Xi's face, and he walked straight to Cornelia, and directly hugged the priest girl in his arms.
"Cornelia, welcome back. ”
