Kevin smiled at Evan and followed the last assessment, but Van's name did not appear on the assessment list. However, with Ivan's strength, even if he doesn't need to be assessed, entering the Knights is already a sure thing.

"You said that the eldest lady of the Venus family, why is she so strong, completely compared to our peers, you said that she has a family, beauty, and a beautiful woman with superior strength, how can we live!"

Winter scratched her long pale blonde hair with both hands and complained, and I could only smile helplessly: "At least she can't forge weapons!" And everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages, compared to people who are not on the same level, maybe you live a happier life! ”

When I said this, I thought of her fleeting lonely eyes, and perhaps there were many burdens in her heart that ordinary people had never thought of pressing her.

Dong looked at me a little resentfully and said, "Is this comforting me, but you are also right, my forging technique will definitely shine on the continent in the future, hahaha!" ”

It was almost noon, and Aunt Penny had agreed in advance to go up to the ancient clock tower and the teaching academy to visit, so he quickly returned to the central square in front of the ancient clock tower. At this time, many people have gathered in the square, so that during the annual open day of the ancient clock tower, they can make a wish in front of the statue of the three goddesses, which is said to bring unexpected adventures and good luck.

Penny pulled Sen Ling and stood not far from the crowd, today Sen Ling was wearing a delicate one-piece skirt, and the light green vest made the thin body a little more energetic, but from Sen Ling's eyes, she felt that she was very wary of her surroundings.

Penny tightened her hand, touched her head, and said softly, "When my brother comes out, we will go into the bell tower to visit." In the bell tower, there are statues of the three goddesses, and it is said that if you pray sincerely, you will receive their blessings. ”

Sen Ling just nodded when he heard this, and suddenly his delicate little hand pointed forward, which happened to be the direction of Kevin and Dong.

"Auntie, how long have you been waiting?"

Penny immediately led Sen Ling and wanted to walk forward, but was shaken by Sen Ling, watching her trot directly next to Kevin, and then grabbed Kevin's hand.

"Huh?"

Kevin looked at Sen Ling's actions and didn't say anything, while Dong on the side looked at the two strangely.

"I said, when did you learn to kidnap children?"

When Dong looked at Sen Ling, Sen Ling subconsciously hid behind Kevin's back, and seemed to be very resistant to Winter.

"This is a relative's child, because they are going to go far away, so let me take care of this child." Kevin said a little stiffly, but Winter didn't suspect too much, so he turned to say hello to Penny.

"Senling, this is my good friend, Dong, he is a good man, so don't be afraid."

Kevin found that Sen Ling's hand was very tight, and there was a slight trembling, and a warm breath continued to pass into Kevin's hand.

Dong Gan coughed a few times, thinking to himself if he was so terrible? So he shook his head helplessly. At this time, the sound of the bell spread out from the big bell on the top of the ancient bell tower, and it was a full twelve, each of which made everyone's hearts flutter, like an initiation on the heart lake.

When Sen Ling heard the bell, the hand holding Kevin suddenly relaxed a lot, and his dull eyes slowly condensed into a faint light.

Presiding over the opening ceremony today is the current clerk of the Silver Flame Knights, the head of the Venus family, Lady Dina. Although I couldn't see her clearly from a distance, I could really feel the aura she exuded, which belonged to the breath of a strong man.

She didn't say anything more, but directly inserted the six-pointed star-shaped key in her hand into the ancient iron door lock and twisted it. There was a crisp sound of mechanical rotation and arrangement, and the iron door slowly moved to both sides.

The bell tower is on!

Kevin and his party followed the crowd into the ancient bell tower, and the first large room inside was the atrium prayer hall with stone sculptures of the three goddesses. This is just the right place for the outside sunlight to penetrate through the hollow dome and reflect on the stone sculptures of the three goddesses.

The stone sculptures, bathed in divine light, seem to come to life, looking down on the people who come to pray and bringing them blessings.

"Let's go and pray, too!" Kevin suggested, feeling that Sen Ling was much more relaxed at this time, perhaps because she was comforted by the sight of God in front of her.

Sen Ling looked at Kevin, then at the stone sculpture in front of him, and slowly moved forward after letting go of Kevin's hand. The three goddesses were guided by their father to create a life that guarded the continent, and their elegant and solemn expressions were not enough to describe their beauty.

Sen Ling seemed to hear some kind of familiar call, unconsciously reached out to touch the void, at this time, an invisible breath suddenly imprisoned Sen Ling, the almost invisible texture on his forehead flashed with a faint green light, and the turquoise eyes quickly enlarged, as if she saw something that frightened her, making her tremble all over.

The blue sky suddenly turned into a dark night, and the cold wind slashed through Senling's face like a sharp blade, and a pain that penetrated her soul made the blood in her body boil. Sen Ling looked up and saw a man in a black robe chanting some kind of rune in the center of the altar, and in the center of the altar there was a fist-sized water crystal that constantly emitted a strange red light to wrap the surroundings.

At this time, through the red light, Sen Ling found a man lying horizontally under the altar, with the same pale green eyes and long hair as himself. The man in white had a pained expression, as if he was imprisoned by an invisible spell. He scolded the black-robed man on the altar vigorously, and every sound seemed to burn his own life. But the black-robed man ignored it, and kept chanting incantations.

Under the influence of the incantation, the crystal turned from its original red to a dazzling gold, which was out of step with its surroundings. But the gold only shone for a moment, and then turned into a deep black. The black crystal exudes a desperate and chaotic aura, which is centered on condensing into waves of qi and spreading outward, and a rare aurora suddenly appears in the dim sky, and the drifting latent green makes people feel suffocated as if the end is coming. Suddenly, the black light in the crystal body rushed into the sky, and the aurora in the sky was instantly dispersed, and a huge magic array floated in the sky. The man on the altar looked back at the man below with contempt, took out a book, and a blue light came out of the book and hit the man in the audience, and the chest of the man in white was immediately torn open, and bright red blood gushed out. When Sen Ling saw this scene, not only did he feel nausea gushing out of his stomach, and he was so frightened that he covered his mouth and didn't dare to scream, but his whole person was already trembling with fear.

The man on the altar stretched out his left hand, withered and withered like a branch, and wore a ring of white crystal on his middle finger, and a faint white light from the crystal burrowed into the man's chest like a poisonous snake.

At the same time as the black-robed man withdrew his blood-stained left hand, he pulled out a key from the white-robed man's chest. Suddenly, the man in white fell down the stage like a deflated ball. The pale green hair turned gray in an instant. The black-robed man gently stroked the blood-stained key, revealing his eyes that emitted a hideous red light from under the overturned black robe.

He inserted the key into the black crystal, and suddenly Senling felt his heart pierced. The pain of the tear almost made her consciousness almost scattered, and she found that the key in the black-robed man's hand just now was actually inserted into her chest. The wizened palm stroked her face, and then the sound of the recoils being combined was heard as the key twisted.

"Click"

Suddenly, a large number of souls were released from the crystal, hovering around the Sen Ling, and all of them rushed towards her eyes

"Ahh

Sen Ling screamed in surprise and sat down on his knees as if he were detached, but unfortunately bumped into the traveler in front of him. Hearing Sen Ling's scream, Kevin and Dong immediately looked in her direction, only to see a noble lady in a royal blue dress, the long pink flowing hair, and delicate makeup all showed his extraordinary aura, especially with a royal academy medal pinned to his chest, knowing that the person from the extraordinary origin was Mrs. Dina, who had just held the opening ceremony of the bell tower, her concerned eyes looked at Sen Ling, and a faint halo faintly revealed in her hand into Sen Ling's body.

"This is"

Mrs. Dina frowned, saw Kevin nervously coming over, and said, "She's fine, she's just a little weak." ”

Kevin carried Sen Ling directly to the side of the shade, and Lady Dina followed them. Kevin then turned around and bowed in thanks, "Thank you, ma'am, just now." ”

Lady Dina smiled kindly and said, "It's okay, I just happened to pass by, I didn't expect this to be your sister, Kevin." ”

"Madame smiled, this is the daughter of my distant relative, and her parents are going to go on a long trip, so they asked me to take care of them for a while."

Mrs. Dina glanced at Kevin suspiciously, and smiled, "Oh, that's right, the work submitted in today's promotion exam is good, I wonder if you are interested in joining our Venus's Linglun Workshop?" ”

Hearing Mrs. Dina's verbal invitation, not only Kevin, but even Dong was stunned, and whispered in Kevin's ear: "Madame is inviting you, what kind of shit luck did you kid, quickly agree!" ”

Kevin hurriedly coughed dryly, disturbed his hair, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's my honor to join the Linglun Workshop!" ”

"So," Mrs. Dina looked at Kevin playfully, as if she had to hear Kevin's promise.

At this time, Dong immediately replied: "Yes, of course Kevin is willing, this kid's dream is to join there, right!" ”

Dina looked at Dong's anxious expression and answered, "You are Dong; I appreciate your work too, so why don't you join with your friends? ”

At this time, even Dong was completely stunned, and hurriedly bumped Kevin's elbow and asked, "Hey, do you think we are dreaming?" ”

"Don't you know if you hit your own face?"

"You can help me fight!" Winter grabbed Kevin's hand and shook it.

There was a crisp snap, and the bright red handprint was immediately printed on Dongben is fair face, and it took him a while before he reacted, covering his face and yelling at Kevin: "I'll go, why are you fighting so hard?" ”

"Doesn't that prove you're not dreaming?"

Mrs. Dina looked at the smiling smiles of the two young men in front of her, smiled knowingly, and then turned sideways to Sen Ling and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?" ”

The tremor on Sen Ling's body had disappeared, and looking at Lady Vendina's loving face, her mood was much calmer, and she said softly, "My name is Sen Sen Ling. ”

"Senling, it's a nice name," he said, turning around and walking towards the outside of the auditorium. "Oh, what's wrong with our eldest lady today, you can giggle for a long time when you have dinner with us?" Vinoll couldn't help but chat when he saw that Evan had been smiling all the time since he had eaten.

When Evan heard this, he immediately coughed dryly, and his expression immediately returned to his usual cold appearance, and replied in a cold tone: "Is there one?" It's not always like that. ”

"Eh, if the eldest lady is like this, then it will be much easier for us, right, Izu?"

Vinol rubbed Isu next to him with his elbow, and Isu sat upright, picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, and said indifferently: "Maybe Ivan encountered something that made her happy, but it was definitely not because of eating with us." ”

Hearing Isu's rare echo with Vinol, he pursed his lips and squinted his eyes at the two opposite.

"Then you mean that we are too cold to you on weekdays, so you have to be warm, right?"

Seeing Evan's slightly angry expression, Vinoll chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly said apologetically: "No, no, our eldest lady is very good to us, good enough." ”

Vinol paused, changed his words, put away the naughty tone he had just haught, and said, "Evan you can laugh sincerely, we are all very happy." ”

Hearing that Vinol rarely had such a serious tone, Ivan was also stunned, and Isu on the side also nodded in agreement, and said in his usual ethereal tone.

"Implement your own choices, and don't deliberately hide your feelings."

Evan looked out the window and remembered the conversation she had with her mother in her room the night before.

"Mother, may I come in?" Evan tapped a few times outside the door, but no one inside answered her words. I saw a warm light shine through the crack in the door, and then I pushed open the wooden carved door in front of me. When Evan walked into the room, a woman was sitting in a rocking chair, her eyes closed and seemed to be asleep, the long and thick eyelashes covered it, the corners of her eyes had slightly appeared shallow crow's feet, and her kind face gave Evan as serene as ever, this was her biological mother Dina; Koterina.

There is a thick stack of materials on the table, and the day after tomorrow is the annual national promotion selection assessment, as the secretary of the Silver Flame Knights, the supervising professor of the Evebar Academy, and the mother of the triple identity of the Venus family, she will do her best to complete the review of the candidates' materials.

"Mother is really, she doesn't lie down in bed when she is tired." Evan looked at the lady in the rocking chair with a slight complaint, and after putting the tea set aside, he began to clean up the materials scattered on the table.
