Chapter 21: The Goshawk Looks Back
The top floor of the Mercenary Guild, the meeting room.
"How's it going, iron-striker, have you figured it out?" said President Viola, frowning, as he returned to his carved rattan rocking chair, swaying a little smugly.
"Lord Lord, there are many talents of the new generation in the army, and several of them are talents who cannot be retained by the War Spirit Branch, and they are all outstanding people who have truly survived the storms. ”
Seeing that Ogu was still unmoved, Elliot raised his blue crystal eyebrows slightly, stood up politely, walked to the window, and then slowly persuaded:
"The son of the Marquis of Flying Fish, Dries Lumere, is already a ninth-level warrior with a solid realm at a young age, and under his leadership, the military may not have no chance of winning. ”
Ogu didn't know the ability of the little flying fish Dries, but before the warrior broke through to the hero realm, the combat power was far inferior to that of the mage of the same level, and the Chosen Son was often a contest between the mage and the war general level in the end.
If the military only relies on a small flying fish Driess to compete, it is basically equivalent to giving up the competition for the championship.
Just as Agu was frowning, a faint fluctuation suddenly came from a distance, like a ripple caressing the outer layer of his realm.
"Huh?"
Agu's eyes, which had been slightly closed, opened instantly, his eyebrows tightened, and his eyes widened in the direction from which the fluctuations came, his eyes were shocked, as if he had seen something incredible.
The indifference contained in that fluctuation was so familiar, as it had been when it had befallen the Occupied Zone a year ago, without the slightest emotion, cold and panicking. Even though it was so faint at the moment, in Ogu's eyes, it was like the brightest star in the night sky, dazzling and dazzling.
"It can't be wrong, it's it!"
The "miracle" that he had been looking for for more than a year suddenly appeared, and all of Ogu's mind was suddenly drawn by this fluctuation.
In addition to the agitation of the mood, his hair was raised, and with a wave of his big hand, the magic staff standing at the entrance of the meeting room "sonorized", and immediately flew towards him with his robe.
Elliott, who was standing on the side, only felt a flower in front of him, and Agu was already wearing a magic robe, with a silver staff in his hand, looking like he was facing a great enemy.
"Your Lord, you..."
Seeing his posture, Elliot was about to ask a few words, but as soon as he opened his mouth, before the words fell, he heard a loud "boom", and suddenly a strong wind blew in his face, and sawdust flew all over the room, and an irregular hole appeared on the shuttered wooden window that fell to the ground.
"Ahh......h
President Viola screamed and pounced, looking at the unrecognizable floor-to-ceiling wooden windows, tremblingly holding up a hand of wood shards, and his fat face was out of shape.
"Lord Lord!" Elliot took two steps towards Ogu's back, ignoring the debris on the ground.
Ogu had no time to pay attention to the screams coming from behind him at this moment, he ran the realm with all his might, his perception was fully open, he followed the slightest fluctuation, fled into the air, and disappeared from the field of vision of the two of them in a blink of an eye...
...
"Charles Griffin, I've been waiting for a long time. A clear and elegant voice came from the bright light.
"You are..."
"Enough!"
Charles looked at the tall figure in the light, and was about to ask who the other party was, but was interrupted by a loud shout, forcibly interrupting his exploration of the crystal, and was instantly pulled back to reality.
"Enough!"
Morgan saw that Charles had been standing in place for a long time, and had never been able to trigger the elemental tester, and the little patience he had had finally worn out, he let out a loud shout and interrupted Charles's meditation.
And Charles hadn't come back to his senses at this time, his face was full of shock, as if he had seen a ghost, he reached out and touched the back of his head, thinking: There is actually a person living in his head?
"Hmph!" Morgan snorted coldly, Charles's panicked appearance seemed to him to be a normal reaction that could not be troubled, and he was more determined in his judgment of him, and immediately scolded sharply:
"If you have crystals, but you don't have the talent to become a magician, you are destined to become an ordinary martial artist, step down. ”
After Morgan finished speaking, the crowd of onlookers was like a fried pot, all kinds of discussions, laughter and even ridicule, unscrupulously filled the square, and if you listened carefully, it was full of schadenfreude.
"It's a pity that this crystal, it's a waste to give it to him..."
"The crystals are so big, the location is so good, and they don't have the talent of a magician?
"Cut, waste is waste, whether it crystallizes or not..."
"The crystals are fake, right? Take them off, don't pretend to be ashamed?"
“...”
These good deeds were full of ridicule, and the sound of abuse and ridicule was endless, and Charles had just come to his senses, and before he could listen carefully to what Morgan had said, he was drowned out by such foul language.
Why just look at a glass can and conclude that I don't have talent?
He looked back at the audience with boos, and the anger gradually surged into his heart, and his brainwaves subconsciously swept one by one as far as his cold gaze reached.
But the brainwave detection had just been launched, and he paused, then suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky in a daze.
Morgan saw that Charles was still pretending to be crazy and stupid at this time, trying to delay time and hinder the progress of the entrance examination, so he snorted coldly, raised his staff and pointed it at Charles, and shouted:
"Don't you want to retreat, do you want the old man to send you down?"
"Khooth!"
It wasn't Charles who answered Morgan, but a strangely shaped silver staff that fell from the sky.
The staff is shiny throughout, the head of the staff is a pair of unfolded eagle wings, and the tail of the staff is a sharp eagle claw, it is like a fierce goshawk, the probing claw tears the ground in front of Morgan's eyes, and the rock platform in front of the elemental tester is as hard as iron, but it is smashed by it A crack of more than two meters.
"What... people..."
Morgan was startled by the silver staff, and hurriedly took two steps back, only to look in the direction where the silver staff was flying, but this sight made him completely stunned.
"Master Castro!?"
"What!, my lord?"
Marquis Flying Fish and Lady Garrett blurted out in unison.
Not only these two, but everyone on the viewing platform was immediately frightened to stand up when they saw the strange-shaped silver staff that fell on the stage.
The contemporary legend of the Orton Empire, who doesn't know who doesn't?
Only at the top of the front row, the Warhammer Master's Castro was still sitting firmly in the chair, looking like an old god, raising his head slightly, squinting his eyes and looking into the air.
All of a sudden, inside and outside the entire Oath Square, regardless of men, women, young and old, rich or poor, as long as they could see the strange-shaped silver staff clearly, they all followed Morgan's eyes, looked into the air, and looked forward to it.
Sure enough, under the focus of thousands of eyes, a person slowly descended from the sky above the Oath Square, and landed steadily on the platform, and the looming silver waves of qi followed the ups and downs of his breath, churning back and forth more than ten meters around him, dazzling under the sunlight, I saw him slightly raise his hand and spread his palm, and the Eagle Strike Staff rushed back into his hand.
The black-robed and silver-scepter, with white beard and hair, is none other than the legend of the Empire: Lord of Steel, Agu Castro.
At this moment, his realm was fully open, his mood was agitated, and countless steel elements visible to the naked eye lingered around his body, and even inside the element tester, an iron ball the size of a football was condensed.
"Collar... Your Excellency!" Morgan hurriedly straightened out his gorgeous white robes and saluted respectfully.
He saw that Ao Gu frowned angrily and looked unkind, and he couldn't help but secretly exclaim bad luck: This evil star hasn't been in trouble with the academy for a long time, why did he come to the door again today.
Who knew that Agu directly ignored the rules and saluted to him, Morgan, and walked straight to Charles, who looked dazed.
After Ogu left the Mercenary Guild, he chased the fluctuations all the way, and had been observing the sky above the Oath Square for a while, and among the people present, including the teachers of the Academy, the guards of the Royal City of Arton, and even the nobles on the viewing platform, none of them could detect him.
The only thing he noticed was the young man who almost died at the hands of the steel-bone demon ape a few days ago, and when he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little remorseful.
He had returned to Arton a few days earlier, thinking that when the strange boy woke up, he would ask him how he had discovered his elemental mastery of the Steelbone Demon Ape.
But before the boy woke up from his coma, he received the news that the academy, the mercenary guild and the military would join forces to hunt the magnetized rock dragon, in order to help the little apprentice Arthur break through the shackles of the realm in front of him, he could only temporarily put aside his curiosity and hurried to the battlefield.
As a result, he went around in a circle, but found that the fluctuation came from the huge crystallization behind the young man's head in front of him. It was highly probable that the miracle was so close that his throat was a little astringent, and he only listened dryly to ask:
"Where were you a year ago?"
