Volume I: Rising to Prominence Chapter 5 Reserves
"I'm leaving!" said Kos, carrying his bags, waving to his family behind him, before heading out on his way to the temple.
Before arriving at the temple, I found that most of them had already arrived, but it could not be compared with the pomp and circumstance of the awakening, because out of the more than 2,000 people who came to participate in the awakening ceremony, only 25 people had successfully awakened, a proportion of nearly one percent!
Among them, there are only seven commoner awakeners, and the nobles have been cultivated by strong people since they were young, and they even began to consume drugs to assist in awakening since they were young, which is indeed incomparable to the commoners.
On the right side of the temple gate, there is Bishop Arcada, on the left side of the god, there are several carriages parked, next to him is a middle-aged man who has never seen it, with a rough face, a long beard, and a sturdy body, watching people gradually come together, he said loudly: "If you want to join the Akatsuki Army, come to my side to gather, go directly to the station in Calso City, if you want to join the temple or have other plans, follow Bishop Arcada to the Magician Training School under the Red Moon Temple in Rune City for further study."
Hmph, men have to be soldiers, and all men come to my side!"
Of course, Fox did not hesitate to choose the Akatsuki Army, which he had already thought about, and there were only three other people with him, and these three people were also civilians, and Witt and most of the others chose the temple.
Akada glanced at the rough middle-aged man, and the burly man's expression instantly became a little embarrassed.
"Well, all the men are in the carriage, and we will set off at once. The burly man beckoned to them.
After entering the carriage, the burly middle-aged man got straight to the point:
"I am Baza, the commander of the third battalion of the third regiment of the fifth division of the Akatsuki Army, and I am responsible for arranging for you to enter the reserve station of the Akatsuki Army in Kasol City.
But don't think that you are qualified to enter the Akatsuki Army now, you will first enter the Akatsuki Army Reserve, which is where the newly awakened recruits stay every year, where you will receive the most basic training as a mage master and the Akatsuki Army.
Every year, the reserve of Kasol City recruits nearly a few hundred people, but in the end, only a few dozen people successfully enter the Akatsuki Army, and those who do not pass will immediately get out and find another way. ”
Kerks' expression was calm, which he had already understood, but even so, he joined the Akatsuki Army.
The carriage is equipped with a shock-absorbing structure, so it is not very bumpy to sit in, and as time passes, the scene in front of you gradually becomes prosperous, and a prosperous city gradually comes into view, with complex and dense buildings, dense shops, and bustling crowds.
Looking out the car window at the bustling scene outside, Kerkes's mood was stirring, and this was where he would struggle next.
The carriage drove into the city, then zigzagged through the complex streets, eventually reaching the station of the Akatsuki Army reserves.
The carriage stopped, and Fox jumped out of the carriage, and the scene of the station came into view.
The garrison was heavily defended, with soldiers constantly patrolling back and forth, leaving no dead ends.
Bazaar waved at them, signaling to follow him into the station.
On the road, soldiers kept greeting Bazaar, and he only nodded slightly.
Walking to a building with the words "Logistics Support Department" written on it, a young man in a gray coat was standing. Seeing the Bazaar group, he hurriedly stepped forward.
"Is it the commander of the Bazaar battalion? I'm Sivir from the logistics department, and I'll leave these young people to arrange. ”
Bazaar nodded, then turned his head to look at Quex and the others: "Work hard, strive to become an official member of the Akatsuki Legion, don't embarrass the civilians!" After speaking, he hurriedly left.
Don't disgrace civilians?
Seems to mean something······ Kerrs groaned.
"Come with me. Sivir said to them.
Following Sivir, Fox and the others walked into the logistics support department, where there were already teenagers and girls from other regions who were ready to enter the reserve waiting inside.
Next, Fox was handed a box with neatly folded uniforms, gray with a crimson pattern on the chest.
The box was equipped with epaulettes, ties, hats, and a badge representing status, with its name on it, and the code of 476, oh, and a key, and the number 476 on it.
"This is your military uniform, you will have to wear this in the future without special circumstances in the station, and when you become an official member of the Akatsuki Legion, you will be issued with the Legion's unique soft armor, which is a magic device!"
"Now, take your boxes and go to the dormitory you have assigned, your dormitory is five hundred meters behind the logistics support department, rest for half a day in the afternoon, start classes tomorrow, and give you the basic theory class of the magic master for the first two weeks, the location is in the training base, don't be late!"
With his key in hand, Fox found room number 476 in the dormitory building, and entered the room, which was very clean and well-organized.
Bathroom, small living room, a bedroom with a queen size bed with desk, closet········
Kers swallowed his spit, but the reserve has such good conditions? It was too much luxury for him to come from a poor family.
I lay down on the comfortable big bed all afternoon, then got up and went to the cafeteria for dinner, and then went straight back to my room to meditate.
However, unlike the previous meditations, Kox will now directly enter the purple room on the first floor of the palace to meditate, the concentration of magic energy inside is much thicker than that of the outside world, and cultivating in it, Kox feels that his cultivation efficiency has increased by at least eighty percent!
But he didn't have much time to cultivate, and suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.
With a flash of thought, he returned to reality.
Who will come to themselves?
He got out of bed and opened the door, and found a young man he didn't know, also in military uniform, standing outside, glancing at his badge, which had the number 477 and his name was Zack.
"Hello, I'm Zach who lives next door to you. With a smile on his face, he introduced his identity.
"Hello. Nexus bowed slightly, opening the door to let him in.
The two sat down in the living room, and Fox asked directly, "Is there something wrong?"
"Actually, I just want to get to know you, after all, everyone will get along together in the future, where are you from?"
"I'm from the town of Tanley. Fox himself wears a badge, so it's not surprising that Zach calls out his name.
"Haha, what a coincidence, I'm also from Tanley Town, from a nearby village. When Zach heard this, the smile on his face grew.
Fox was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that the person next door was still his fellow countryman, and he couldn't help but feel a little intimate.
Because they have the same background and have similar age and experience, as the conversation unfolds, the sense of alienation between the two who have just met gradually disappears, and the relationship quickly closes.
"Eh, people from civilian backgrounds like us aren't that easy to mix up here. Zach sighed. "Those nobles have always prided themselves on being noble, thinking that they have noble blood flowing in their bodies, so they have always looked down on us civilians, even if the richer civilians who spent a lot of money to awaken their magical abilities before have been targeted by them everywhere, let alone us. ”
"Everyone has one head and two arms, how can they be more noble than us?" "Kerr never felt inferior to anyone, he would sooner or later become the greatest magician in the world!
"That being said, but those nobles have received the best education since they were children, and they have received the refining and assistance of various drugs since they were children, and they have obtained the best resources, and they are much faster than us in cultivation. Xhaka smiled wryly.
"It's like the most basic magic energy stone for cultivation, we can only rely on the three magic energy stones issued by the reserve soldiers every month to cultivate, but one magic energy stone can support cultivation for about three days, and the rest of the time can only rely on absorbing the magic energy from the outside world, but how can this compare to those nobles who have been using magic energy stones to cultivate?"
Magic Stone is a special kind of ore, which is an ore full of rich magic energy formed by absorbing magic energy from rocks for many years in mountain areas where magic energy is abundant.
Using magic energy stones to cultivate is about fifty percent faster than directly absorbing magic energy cultivation from the outside world, which doesn't seem like much, but it will be a terrifying gap after a long time.
And the price of a standard magic energy stone reaches a terrifying five silver coins, that is, half a gold coin, you must know that the net income of the whole family in a year is only two gold coins!
For civilians, they can't afford to use magic energy stones to cultivate all the time, in fact, two yuan a month for each of the reserves of the Red Moon Legion is also a lot of money.
Although he knew that this was indeed true for the civilian disciples, he had no sense of identity with it in his heart.
I have a palace! I have a purple room! After so many days of cultivation, it seems that the concentration of magic energy in it has no intention of decreasing at all, this is directly the supply of infinite magic energy stones, and the effect is better than that of magic energy stones!
But on the surface, Fox nodded sadly in agreement.
"So we civilians must unite, we have to let that group of nobles be quiet in the end, and we civilians are not easy to mess with!" Zach raised his fist.
Then he looked up at the clock on the wall, it was getting late, so Zach got up to say goodbye, and Fox sent him out of the room, then went back to bed and began to meditate.
Even with the mysterious palace, Fox is not slacking off at all, and if he wants to become a powerful magician, he must endure loneliness.
