Chapter 411: Paul's Story (5)
Elena wants to enter the Land of Trials to help me, and if the two of them take care of each other, the chances of success will be greater. And Elena is very confident in herself, because her master Auvilla has also entered the Land of Trials and successfully escaped after passing the first level, and her experience may help us pass the first level.
At first I refused, but in the end I was naturally moved by her and persuaded by her to allow her to go on an adventure with me.
Since then, we have also understood each other's minds, and it is the kind of love that can risk each other.
However, something unexpected happened, and the way people were selected to enter the Trials Land was changed.
The Grand Elder lobbied around the other Elders, not just to get them to support Comey in marrying Elena, but to completely change the way members were selected to enter the Trials Place.
And it even allowed him to successfully change the selection method that has been used for hundreds of years, and the new model has become that each vein recommends suitable youth, and holds a competition, and only the winner can enter the land of trials, this game is called "The Great Contest of Each Vein".
The new model is very popular with all parties, and the sect with a small population can use it to protect the already small number of disciples, but as long as they give up the competition, they can not enter the trial land, which is much more cost-effective than before, and the sacrifice is only a reward for each lineage. The stronger branches can not only send disciples to try their luck, but even if they unfortunately die in the place of trial, they can also have a reward for winning the game as compensation.
Moreover, the prizes of the competition were so rich that the elders of each vein were quite impressed, and naturally passed the proposal.
It's just that the number of places to enter the Land of Trials has also dropped, and only the winners of the various Pulse Majors are allowed to enter, except for the Son of God candidates.
I wasn't the strongest of the younger generation, but Elena was, and if she was determined to enter the Land of Trials, I couldn't stop her.
The sudden appearance of the various veins was really beyond our expectations, and it also made us feel the wrist of the Great Elder once.
Sure enough, someone raised the issue of the marriage of the six holy daughters of this generation at the elders' meeting, and the marriage of the other five holy daughters was discussed and confirmed by the elders on the spot.
Only Yelena is inconclusive, and it is not only the old man who opposes Yelena marrying Comey. At the same time, Yelena's master Ovella also suggested that Elena was likely to win in the various pulse competitions, and the marriage issue could be decided after she came out of the trial land.
Judging from the number of people who supported Comey at the presbyterian meeting that day, Elena was almost certain to marry Comey, and the only way I had to turn the tables was to win in the various veins and competitions, enter the land of trials as a representative, and come out alive.
The Grand Sect was held in a small town in the Northern Regions, and nearly a thousand elders and outstanding disciples of each Vein in the Mithril Society came to watch and participate in the competition, which showed the strength of the "organization" in front of each of our ordinary Mithril Club members, and I think this is also one of the purposes of the Great Elder wanting to hold such a competition.
Anyway, I played better in the competition, won all the way, and even made it to the final.
Unsurprisingly, my opponent in the final was Yelena.
I was nervous about fighting Elena the next day, so I quietly went to her on the eve of the final, hoping that she would have a little water in the next day's match so that I could win and qualify for the Trials.
Unexpectedly, Yelena didn't agree, and even tried to convince me to admit defeat so that she could win. Just go and listen to the book
According to the new rules, only the winner of the Great Rival of the Pulse can enter the Land of Trials, so only one of the two of us can enter. And we both know that without the help of the other party after entering, there must be a lot of danger, and the hope of survival is much lowered.
While we were arguing, helpless, and helpless, Elena suddenly decided to elope with me immediately and escape from the Mithril Society.
This decision came so suddenly, I don't have any confidence that I will be able to escape from the Order's sphere of influence, let alone the most elite part of the Organization right now, and if we dare to escape, we may be captured by the Grandmaster who is chasing after us the next morning.
However, Elena was stubborn in her decision, either fleeing immediately or breaking me off.
Faced with a dilemma, I naturally chose to be with Yelena.
So we didn't even return to the camp, didn't take anything with us, and even quietly left the camp where the various pulses were held, and rushed into the night.
The escape went unbelievably smooth, and after three days of running in the wilderness, we were not caught up by the pursuers.
It stands to reason that the news of Elena and I escaping will definitely shock the top of the Mithril Society, and they will definitely cause an uproar when they know about it, sending dozens or even hundreds of people to hunt us down, and maybe the elders of the Council of Elders will come to find us themselves.
But we escaped all the way until we boarded a mail ship bound for the New World, but no one found us.
After we arrived in the New World, we rushed away from the densely populated Yorktown, rushed headlong into the depths of the continent, and finally settled incognito in the Medis.
I became a member of the City Guard, and Elena opened a tavern.
I once asked Elena why she suddenly decided to run away from the finals and run away from the Mithril Society with me, but Lily didn't explain, and was annoyed by my questioning, saying that she thought she had a better chance of winning between the two of us, but whoever would win would not be able to make it out of the Trials alive.
At the time, I was unimpressed by Yelena's explanation, thinking she was being too cautious.
But in any case, the two of us were very happy in the Medis, and Elena always dragged me on adventures in the jungle to the west. For this reason, I often asked the City Guard to take a leave of absence, and she often closed the tavern.
We are familiar with the Mithril Society's way of doing things, so the identity on the surface is a good cover for us. Thankfully, my superior, Captain Davidson, was a good friend of me and was able to tolerate my frequent time off.
In the adventure of the western jungle, the two of us gained a lot, and at the same time, our strength increased quickly, and after another adventure, both of us broke through the grandmaster, my secondary attribute is darkness, and Yelena's secondary attribute is chaos.
I deliberately chose the dark system as a secondary attribute after coming to the New World, but Yelena's choice of chaos was beyond my expectations, and she didn't even perceive the chaos system in front of me.
At this point, I can only accept that my lover is a grandmaster with qi and chaos.
