77.Turmoil in joining the company (2)
The senior at the registration office listened to the silver-haired boy reveal the identities of me and Noah, his face instantly became a little ugly, he knew the silver-haired boy, turned to him and asked, "Lorenzo, you said he was the one who duel with Ivan in the arena a few days ago?"
It seems that this Ivan senior of the Ming Literature Society is still a celebrity in the Royal Academy of Magic, at least there are many people in the academy who know him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Of course, it's just the two of them, and a guy named Dennis who joined the Alchemy Society. The silver-haired young man Lorenzo clasped his hands in front of his chest, squinted at Noah, and said to him with a sneer: "Noah, didn't you come here to fill out the application form a few days ago? ”
Hearing the sarcasm of the silver-haired young man Lorenzo, Noah's face turned red with shame, but he was not to be outdone, but he said, "I came here with a friend, can't I come to the martial arts hall if I don't become a member of the Sword and Rose Society?"
The registration office of the Sword and Rose Club was in a mess for a while, and the young students of the first class of the fire department saw that the silver-haired boy Lorenzo and a group of people had just come over, and they had already quietly retreated, standing in the outer circle to watch the excitement here, but it was the delicate girl with a sweet voice and a good figure, who wanted to talk and stopped talking on the side, and was hesitant to come over, but was secretly pulled by her friend, and finally could only choose to stand with her friends helplessly.
The senior at the registration office looked impatiently at the application form I had filled out, and then pressed the form under the bottom of a stack of parchment paper on the square table, his face was dark, and he had long lost the pleasant face and appreciation he had when he first saw me, and said to me with a straight face: "This junior, you go back and wait for the news first!" If you pass our assessment, we will send the club badge to you in person, if there is no news within a few days, it is recommended that you find other clubs that are more suitable for you, so as not to delay your club activity score. ”
I thought to myself, is this a hint and rejection in disguise? Although the senior at the reception did not say it explicitly, the hint in his words was already obvious, and the implication was that we should not expect to be able to join the Sword and Rose Society.
"I knew it was going to be like this...... "Noah stood behind me and muttered quietly, I noticed that his fists were clenched tightly by him, and his joints were slightly white, and he looked very unwilling.
At this time, in the crowd on the side, I noticed that the sweet-looking girl with a little gloomy eyes showed a faint joy on his face, although it was not easy to show it too obviously on such an occasion, but the smug smile on his face was more and more obvious.
The silver-haired boy Lorenzo snorted softly, and then beckoned his friends to gather around the square table in the registration office, and then said to the two seniors in the registration office with some flamboyance: "Two senior brothers, today I brought all the best magicians in our class here, and they all very much want to join the Sword and Rose Society. ”
"Oh, these are all new classmates in the second class of your fire department?" The senior who was in charge of receiving the new students' registration softened his face, and looked at the students behind the silver-haired boy Lorenzo with an amiable look, and casually took out a few application forms from the desk.
"That...... That is true...... Brother, I'm already a member of the Sword and Rose Society, so can I recommend a friend to join our Society?"
"Well, there is a saying in our club that old club members with certain qualifications can recommend new members to join, but, Lorenzo, was it just a few days ago that your brother recommended us to join our ......club?
The other senior at the reception next to him said to the silver-haired boy Lorenzo in a more soothing tone: "You still fill out the application form according to the normal procedure, you don't know that the number of members in the academy this year is very tight, although we are responsible for the registration of new members and other matters at the reception, but the real decision-maker is not us." ”
In fact, if I follow my own ideas, I would prefer to join an obscure club, at least there can be fewer club activities, because a lot of my spare time is all occupied by the Yerkes scholars in the Academy of Magic, and the various magic courses in the Royal Academy of Magic are also very full, I just hope to have a quiet small club, which can easily mix with the club's activity score, so that is enough. On the contrary, I don't have much expectation for whether I can join the Sword and Rose Society.
The only thing that's a bit of a pity is that I can't meet Caterina soon, maybe I can take advantage of this summer vacation to visit some Caterina in that spot and organize a small expedition by the way. Thinking of this, Noah and I were about to turn around and leave the registration office, but the silver-haired boy Lorenzo reached out to stop us.
"What's the matter? Are you going to go to the next club registration office so soon?" The silver-haired young man had some provocative looks in his eyes, and the companions behind him also burst into laughter, and then said one after another: "Let's hurry up to the next club registration location, maybe if it's early, we can go to a few more places to see if there are people willing to take you in!"
At this time, suddenly a few people pushed away the crowd of onlookers from outside the martial arts arena and opened up a way, and then several senior seniors walked out of the crowd, and it could be seen from the badge of the Royal Academy of Magic on their chests that the two magicians led by them turned out to be the fourth-year seniors in the academy, and their fierce eyes glanced at us, and one of them directly opened his mouth and scolded: " What's going on, how can this place be like a vegetable market, the current freshmen are really not as good as the first, the quality is too poor, sometimes, I can't even figure out whether you are a group of reckless martial artists, or a group of elite-level magicians and nobles?"
The powerful aura of these fourth-grade seniors suddenly calmed everyone on the field, and the surroundings suddenly became silent.
He set his eyes on the two seniors who were responsible for recruiting new members in the registration office of the Sword and Rose Society, one of the seniors hurriedly stepped forward and whispered a few words in front of them, the eyes of the two seniors flashed a few times, and then looked at me and Noah again and again, and then, under the gaze of everyone, one of the seniors actually walked towards me, he was wearing a dark green Calemian magic robe, and a magic rune sword hung from his waist, this style of magic sword I had seen on Qige's body, he simply tied the long golden hair on his head behind his head, and the contours of his face were uneven, like the heroes on those marble statues, staring at me with eyes under a pair of sword eyebrows.
I can see that there are a lot of questions between his eyebrows, but his broad face is very calm, he stared at me for a long time without speaking, when facing him, I can feel that his body is full of agitating fire elements, I guess he should be a fire magician, and now he is on the verge of promotion, the fire element in his body has overflowed uncontrollably, I even have a very ridiculous intuition, he is standing in front of me, like a phoenix tail flame grass.
He stood in front of me and stared at me for a long time, and when I was a little impatient, he finally asked, "Are you Jijia?"
"Yes, senior!" I replied honestly, and instead of dispersing, the people around me who were watching the excitement gathered more and more, and a large number of onlookers gathered at the entrance of the martial arts hall.
In the fourth grade, he already had the physique of an adult, he was two heads taller than me, he looked down at me with a frown, and asked in a deep voice, "I heard that you slapped Ivan the vice president of the Ming Literature Society to the ground with an axe a few days ago?"
“...... Sort of, it was a team battle, and my teammates and I defeated Senior Ivan's temporary team!" "I have a very strong feeling that if I don't answer honestly, he will not hesitate to beat me, and I will definitely not be able to beat him, and the momentum shown between his eyebrows gives me a very strong feeling.
But apparently he was satisfied with my answer, and then he laughed: "Hehe, even if you listen to it, it feels really interesting, I really wonder how you defeated Ivan, that guy's fire magic is quite proficient!"
I think it's better to explain: "We have a priest on our team who makes us invincible......"
He suddenly bent down and patted me on the shoulder very affectionately, and then said in a slightly gentle tone: "This is not a place to talk, but I hope to have the opportunity to listen to you tell me in person, the guy who can make Ivan of the Ming Literature Society deflated, just listening to it is very interesting, you have learned martial arts skills before?"
I said, "When I was a kid, I used to learn how to block with a shield warrior!"
Of course, my first teacher in shield blocking was Jonbach, who taught me how to block the enemy's frontal attacks, how to block those arrows.
The senior winked at me and said, "Then you don't mind if I try your skills, do you?"
I think he gave me some hints, but unfortunately I didn't quite figure it out. All I could say casually was, "Of course!"
A layer of cold sweat broke out on my back, although I couldn't see the depth of him, but the faint coercion on his body made me have an intuition: I can't beat him.
I thought to myself: What does this senior want to do, is he going to trouble me directly outside the martial arts hall? I don't want to be beaten!
Just when I was in a trance and thinking about things, the senior standing in front of me, his right hand suddenly shook suddenly, and he couldn't see how he held the magic rune sword in his hand, but he just waved the magic rune sword lightly, and let the rune sword conjure up afterimages and slash down at me. I'll give you a lung, this is clearly the 'Afterimage Swordsmanship' in the high-level swordsmanship that can only be learned by swordsmen, have you never eaten pork and never seen a pig run?
I subconsciously stepped back sideways, propped up the lunge, and blocked the arm of my left hand above my head, this is a standard blocking defense posture, I can make this action like a conditioned reflex, only to understand, there is no shield on my arm at all, at the beginning, in order to be able to train my subconscious reflex arc, I don't know how many times I was beaten with a wooden sword, but now that I have become a magician, there is no longer a small round shield around me, so the arm is empty, and I feel inexplicably panicked.
Seeing the senior's rune sword slashing down sharply, I hurriedly used my magic to condense an ice shield in this second, protecting my left forearm.
At this time, the rune sword in the senior's hand stopped in front of my forearm, and the sharp blade brought out a shallow white sword qi like training, directly halving the ice shield on the arm, and the ice shield fell to the ground with a 'snap', falling into countless pieces of ice. And he also 'huh', his gaze fell on his magic rune sword, the entire body of the rune sword was shrouded in a faint cold, and a layer of light hoarfrost condensed on the sword body, only I knew that it was because he slashed on the ice shield with a sword, and was injured by the 'light blue ice flame' and rebounded, and the cold of the ice flame made a layer of ice condense on his rune sword.
The senior frowned, and pondered a little before saying, "This shield warrior's blocking technique is very ordinary! But your body's agility, reaction speed, and balance are very good, doesn't anyone say that you are suitable to be a swordsman?"
I didn't hide my family background, these materials were already in the personal file in the academy, so I said, "Of course, my father is a swordsmanship instructor of Western thin sword!"
The senior was stunned, and then clapped his hands again and again and said regretfully: "No wonder you have such an excellent swordsman talent, it's a pity that you have learned magic!"
"......" When I saw this senior put on a very regretful expression, I was speechless for a while, is it true that the profession of a magician is not as good as a swordsman?
"Hey, hey, appreciate and appreciate, don't mislead people's children, but it seems that our Sword and Rose Club is going to fill in a newcomer!" The other senior standing in the back laughed, and then walked over and said loudly, standing next to the senior who tried my skills with the rune sword, and then said to me: " My name is Alessio, his name is Andrea, we are both members of the Sword and Rose Society, of course, if you want, you will also be one of us in the future, because of your excellent performance, we will recommend you to the president, and then invite you to join our society. ”
"Join us, only here can you learn how to combine sword and magic!" said Andre, who had just tried my hand.
"Actually...... I prefer to use an axe!"
