Volume 2 The Call of Fate Chapter 54 Join

Daniels had already guessed that the person who wanted to see him should be a big man in the Holy Radiance Crusader, and he thought that this office would be very large, but after entering, he found that the area of this office was only more than twenty square meters, far less than he imagined. In addition, the furnishings in the office match the style of the whole small building very well, that is, it is very simple and simple. There was nothing but a desk, an office chair, a sofa for entertainers, and a small bookcase. Then on the wall on the right side of the office, there is also a map of the mainland. This map of the continent is so large that it occupies almost two-thirds of the wall.

A middle-aged knight with a cross sword at his waist and a gold cross cloak on a white background was standing in front of the office window with his hands in his hands, quietly watching the soldiers in a square not far from the small building conducting drills. The middle-aged knight was not very tall, but Daniels suddenly felt a trance at the first sight of his back. He had the illusion that he was looking up at a high mountain with thousands of walls, which made people feel awe and dare not move.

After hearing the sound of the office door being pushed open, the middle-aged knight turned around.

Daniels froze when he saw the middle-aged knight's face.

"You...... Daniels stopped talking, not knowing what to call him.

"Actually, you can call me Master. They all say, 'Be a teacher for one day, be a father for life,' not to mention that I taught you three whole days! Even though I only taught you the most superficial basic course on vindictive spirit. The middle-aged knight said lightly.

This middle-aged knight turned out to be a mysterious knight who visited the Barony of Nochi many years ago and searched for the Demon Altar to no avail, and easily taught Daniels the method of cultivating his fighting spirit.

Daniels was silent and did not answer. Looking at the situation, the middle-aged knight's status in the Holy Radiance Crusader is not low, this kind of big man who is just a one-sided friend suddenly came to meet him, and he also pulled the relationship between master and apprentice, no matter how you look at this picture, it is weird!

After so many tragic changes, Daniels is no longer a scheming teenager.

"Boy, it seems that you are very wary of me!" The middle-aged knight couldn't help but smile when he saw that Daniels didn't speak, and said, "Then let me introduce myself first, I'm Urban Bertomites!"

"Urban Bertomites?"

As a former top student of the highest military academy in the Empire, Daniels naturally knew the names of many generals in the Imperial Army. Now that he suddenly heard one of the most thunderous names among them, he couldn't help but be startled.

Daniels asked tentatively, "Are you...... You're the Legion Leader of the Radiant Crusaders?"

"Yes, with my identity, I can still be worthy of your master, right?"

It took Daniels a long time to wake up from the shock, and said with a wry smile: "How can I afford it! I'm just a convict convicted of being sent to the military. A big man like you, you just pointed at me twice casually back then, and you are self-aware, I don't dare to recognize you as a master!"

"Boy, it was indeed on a whim that I taught you to be vindictive, and I didn't have the idea of accepting apprentices. However, with your current ability, you are still worthy of my apprentice!"

"Besides, people are self-aware?Boy, why do I feel so awkward when this sentence comes out of your mouth?" Urban Mo rubbed his chin and said slowly: "When you pursue the first beauty in the imperial capital, why don't you have self-knowledge?"

Daniels' face instantly turned red, and his hands involuntarily clenched into fists, glaring at Urban angrily.

Urban met his angry gaze.

The moment the two looked at each other, Daniels saw a thick golden light in Urban's eyes. The golden light turned Urban's eyes into two small blazing suns, stabbing his eyes with a sharp pain, and he almost went blind.

Only then did Daniels remember that the man in front of him was not only the leader of the Holy Radiance Crusaders, the deputy head of the Templar Order, but also a real sword master!

He quickly closed his eyes, no longer looked at Urban, took a deep breath, and slowly opened his eyes and said, "My lord, are you just looking for me to meet me today to humiliate me?"

"Of course not!"

"Wouldn't that be to talk about the love of teaching back then?"

"Partially!"

“......”

"Anything else to ask?"

"What are you looking for me, my lord?"

"How about inviting you to join the Radiant Crusade!, are you interested?"

"Not interested...... Wait, what do you say?"

Daniels was dumbfounded, his mouth wide open enough to swallow an egg.

"We at the Radiant Crusader recruit a group of outstanding graduates of Augustus College every year, so we usually pay attention to the elite of all grades of the college. In fact, since you entered Augustus College and won the first place in your grade in the annual examination in your first year, your materials have been on my desk. When I saw your information, I was very surprised, I didn't expect that you, a boy from a poor country, would not only be admitted to Augustus' Academy, but also stand out. I watched you for the next two years, and you didn't disappoint me, winning the first place in your grade every year. I had planned to recruit you to the Radiant Crusaders when you graduated this year. I just didn't expect so many things to happen all of a sudden before you graduate!"

"Although you were expelled from the Academy of Augustus, and you were also sent to the Northland to fill the army, I have a heart for you, and I once passed on your vindictive origin, so I still want to recruit you into the Holy Radiance Crusade!"

After hearing Urban's reason for inviting him to join the Radiant Crusade, Daniels lowered his head and thought for a long time before he raised his head and asked, "My lord, I am very honored to be invited by you! But are you not afraid of offending the Heywood family?"

"I and Marshal Harris of the Heywood family, above the court, do not belong to the same camp in the first place. And my camp and Marshal Harris's camp don't get along very well!" Urban said indifferently.

"I'm a soldier now, can you clear my name?" Daniels asked again.

"Of course, but I can't be too ugly at first. After you enter the Holy Radiance Crusade, you will become a secret spy of the Holy Radiance Crusade, and you still have to go to the north, but not to the front line of confrontation with the Snow Clan, but to the northwest, to the northern grassland of the orcs! If you can make a meritorious deed there, I will be able to completely clear your exile charge! I will not let you stay at the border for twenty years! You will not be able to return home!"

"My family is ruined, where is there a home to return to!" Daniels said mockingly.

Immediately, Daniels began to think about it, and he had heard of the frequent wars on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang in recent years. Since the price of joining the Holy Radiance Crusader was to go to that alien war-torn land alone as a secret agent, then he must still have a task on his shoulders, so he asked, "My lord, can you tell me what you are doing in the northern grasslands?"

"There is a mercenary group called the Red Flame Fire Dragon on the grasslands of Northern Xinjiang, which was originally an agent supported by the Imperial Military Department, but now this mercenary group often resists the orders of the Imperial Military Department, and is not as obedient as before. The Imperial War Department discovered that there was a mysterious sect called the Worship of the Dragons that seemed to have infiltrated the mercenary group and gradually seized control of it. ”

"The Imperial War Department wants to send someone to investigate, but it can't make a big splash. Because the leader of this mercenary group used to be one of the deputy commanders of the Holy Radiance Crusader, and when I was still the deputy commander many years ago, he competed with me for the position of captain of the legion, but in the end he failed. Later, he was transferred out of the Shenghui Crusader and went to the northern grasslands to form this mercenary group. He has always resented the failure of the competition, and the Imperial War Department is afraid that the overt investigation will cause him to backlash, so he can only investigate privately. All you have to do is find conclusive evidence that this mercenary group has been controlled by the Dragon Worship Sect, and present it to me!"

"Is the object of worship a dragon?" asked Daniels.

"From the literal meaning of the name, it should be so!" said Urban.

Daniels groaned, calculating the gains and losses in his heart.

"Boy, do you want to understand, would you like to join the Holy Radiance Crusade and go to the northern grasslands?" asked Urban as he stared at him.

"Going to the Orc territory to be a spy seems to be in a much better situation than going north to fight the Snow Clans!I can't seem to find a reason to refuse!" Daniels said slowly, "Therefore, I promise you!"

"Good!" Urban nodded in satisfaction.

Recruiting Daniels into the Radiant Crusaders made Urban look in a good mood, and on a whim, he suddenly asked, "Boy, are you willing to officially worship me as a teacher?"

Daniels was stunned for a moment and said, "My lord, are you really here?"

"Yes, your kid's fighting spirit was originally taught by me, and now his ability is quite passable! The most important thing is that I don't have a disciple yet, and I have long wanted to find a successor to the mantle, but I haven't met a suitable candidate! You kid is also destined for me, so it's better to choose you!"

At this moment, Daniels no longer had the suspicion of Urban at the beginning, he saw that he could not miss the opportunity, immediately knelt down, kowtowed to Urban three times, and said: "Meet the teacher!"

After Daniels finished his apprenticeship, Urban stretched out his hand to help him up, and asked, "Boy, I don't understand something, after you entered the Augustan Academy, it only took one year to cultivate your Dou Qi from the first level to the fourth level, but from the fourth level to the fifth level, it took two years of cultivation. Although it is becoming more and more difficult to improve the level after practicing Douqi, you have not yet cultivated to the highest level, and the bottleneck should not be so serious. Judging from your amazing performance in the previous year, in these two years, you should be able to cultivate to the sixth level, and no matter how bad it is, it should be the peak of the fifth level!"

Daniels hesitated for a moment and said, "Teacher, when you gave me the Dou Qi cultivation method, I was already quite old, and my foundation was not strong. Although my cultivation is progressing rapidly, I am also afraid that if I break through too quickly, it will cause my foundation to be shaken!"

"So, are you deliberately suppressing your cultivation speed?" Urban's stunned.

"Yes, teacher!"

"On the way to cultivate fighting spirit, it is a big taboo to have an unstable foundation. You can understand this truth at a young age, and you know that it is commendable to go step by step and not be greedy for merit!" Urban nodded in approval. He clapped his hands, and the office door slammed open, and the three knights who had taken Daniels out of the prison walked in.

"Now that Daniels is a member of our Radiant Crusade, you should take him down to change this prison uniform first, and then prepare a good meal for him! Looking at his appearance, he should be starved to death in prison! There are also all the military rules and disciplines in the army, you will give him an account during this time!" Urban said with a smile.

"Yes, General!" the three knights bowed in unison, and then left the small building with Daniels.

Urban stood in front of the window, looking at the distant back of the young man downstairs, and the smile on his face gradually faded. He turned and walked down the small building, stepped on a maroon warhorse, and rode away from the Radiant Crusader camp and headed straight for the Basilica of the Holy Light on Prometheus Hill.

Upon reaching the square in front of the Basilica of the Light, Urban dismounted his horse, and immediately the Templars guarding the church stepped forward, took the reins from his hand, and introduced the horse into the stable.

Urban strode up the wide staircase of the church, and after passing the fifty-eight steps, he entered the church, and walked through the winding corridor to a magnificent side hall, and went straight in.
