Chapter 62: The Monk
Unas woke up from his sleep with a strange noise, and he slowly opened his eyes, the morning sun shining through the window, and a gray shadow was standing motionless in front of his bed.
He jumped up from the bed in shock, hit his head on the low ceiling with a "bang", and suddenly woke up most of the time.
"Your vigilance is still so bad." A familiar voice came from Grayshadow's mouth.
Unas rubbed the top of his aching head and looked at it, it turned out that Gordon, who hadn't seen anyone for a week, had returned.
Gordon's outfit was completely changed, a gray linen robe draped over him, a pair of cloth shoes tucked under his feet, his pale face was covered by the shadow of the hood on his head, and an unreal smile hung on his face, which felt like a completely different person.
Unas was puzzled by his outfit, but didn't think much of it, and complained, "You're really elusive, you just can't learn to knock on the door." ”
"Do I need to knock on the door to get back to my own place?" Gordon lifted the hood from his head as he spoke, and a bare head was suddenly exposed to the air.
Unas looked at the bald Gordon dumbfounded: "Your hair is indeed too long and needs to be trimmed, but you don't need to shave your head." ”
The hairstyle is really important, and the bald Gordon's appearance suddenly dropped by more than half.
"Huh." Gordon smiled "sincerely" at him.
Unas took a closer look at his outfit and suddenly realized: "It turns out that you are going to become a monk!" ”
He had seen bald men in the monastery dressed in the same costume as Gordon, called monks, similar to ascetics, who swore to never marry for the rest of their lives, to serve the Light, to live and study and work only in the monastery, and to hone their souls and beliefs with hard practice.
Gordon went to find the Holy Light Master for a week, but he was fooled by which god stick and became a monk after seeing through the red dust?
No, no, no, Unas is in a hurry, so he must persuade well: "Gordon, you... There are still many beautiful things in this world, and there are many things worth pursuing, don't think about it. ”
"I've thought it very clearly, and now I just want to pursue the Light."
"Don't you want revenge? Kill Arthas, destroy all the natural disasters, and together we will fulfill this dream. "Isn't it just farming monsters and fighting bosses, I'm good at it.
"I have long been blinded by hatred, and I have been drawn further and further away from the Light, and now it is time to abandon those paranoia and delusions."
It's over, it seems that Gordon has been brainwashed very deeply, and after getting along with him these days, Unas also understands his character a little, but he is actually very stubborn, and it is too difficult to come back straight after he has been bent.
"I want revenge, but I will no longer let hatred take over my consciousness, and now that the path of the paladin has been cut off from me, I want to choose a different path of light."
"How can it be cut off? As long as you can retrieve the Light, you can become a paladin again. After Unas finished speaking, he realized that this sentence was not convincing, how could it be so easy to "recover the Holy Light".
"Say no more, I have already submitted my resignation letter to the superiors of the Northern Maple Legion, and after waiting for a reply, I will go to the church district to practice behind closed doors with Brother Kolov."
"Brother Kolov? Is that the mentor you're looking for? It was a familiar name, but Unas couldn't remember where he had seen it.
"You have given my body a second life, and I hope that Brother Kolof will give my soul a second life." Gordon walked to the window, raised his head and closed his eyes and opened his hands, as if he was embracing the morning light, and the appearance was full of eleven great gods.
"It's not so easy for a soldier to resign," Unas thought for a moment, and hope was rekindled, "Your superiors will let you go so easily?" ”
"I was originally a supernumerary member of the Beifeng Legion, and my status was only a little stronger than that of a mercenary, and a small amount of liquidated damages could solve all problems, and the legion could not restrict my freedom."
It seems that it is a foregone conclusion that Gordon will become a monk, and Unas consciously can't persuade him, so he has to let him go, maybe this will also be good for Gordon, and it is not a way to suffer all day long.
"Actually, I came here today to entrust you with a few things," Gordon said, spreading out his left palm and removing the ring from his middle finger, "I promised to give you this ring, and now is the time to make good on that promise." ”
Unas thought about it, didn't say politely, and silently took this treasure, since Gordon's decision is difficult to change, it is better to accept his kindness generously.
"And the fire kiss, I have removed the traces of the demon on the sword, you can use it with confidence." Gordon pointed to a corner of the room.
Unas followed his gesture and saw that there was a long wooden box on the table in the corner of the hut, and needless to say, the Fire Kiss was among them.
"Since I have decided to become a monk, I probably don't have much chance to use these two things, I hope you can make good use of them and inherit the title of 'Flame Knight'."
"Yes." Unas nodded vigorously, playing with the black ring in his hand, and there were a thousand words in his heart, but they only turned into one word.
"Like I told you before, flames are very dangerous things, and if you don't control them well, you can easily hurt yourself, originally I wanted to teach you slowly, but now I'm afraid I don't have that much time," Gordon held up three fingers, "In three days, you have to master the use of the ring." ”
"No problem, I'll do my best!" Unas raised his fist and loudly expressed his determination.
"There are a lot of people in the monastery, and it is easy to be disturbed, I have already applied to go out for three days, hurry up and pack your bags."
For the past week, Unas has been training at the training ground in the military zone during the day, and at night he was dragged by Erigor to a tavern in the civilian area to pour alcohol, which is already a bit unbearable, and it would be good to have an excuse to get out of Erigor's clutches.
After a quick wash, the two went out and ran into Darion who came up to look for Unas, and from the fourth day, Darion, who had been cultivating for a few days, finally showed up and joined the operation to train Unas.
Unas's strength is slightly stronger than Darian's, and Darian's skills are incomparable to Unas's, and the two can fight back and forth, of course, Darian put a lot of water in it.
Erigor was probably tired of abusing the vegetables, so he changed his training plan and began to teach Unas the basic moves, and the battle was handed over to Darian.
The basic movements are not easy, swinging the hammer thousands of times a day, hitting directly, sweeping left and right repeatedly proficient, sword skills are more complex, and all kinds of stabbing and sweeping points are also practiced thousands of times.
Although it was hard, the promotion of him was huge, and there were several battles that had been able to suppress Darion by luck, and the blonde boy was naturally unconvinced, and was always the first to run to wake him up every morning.
Suddenly, Darian was also very surprised by Gordon's bald head, like Unas, he quickly reacted to Gordon's plan, but he had no position to say anything, he could only send his blessing: "The path of the monk is full of thorns, but Lord Gordon must be fine, a new beginning, a new path, there will definitely be a new soul." ”
Gordon smiled at him and thanked him, and Darien was a little flattered, and said that the cold-faced knight's personality had become milder after he decided to become a monk.
"Gordon and I are going to go out for secret training for three days, and you tell Eri that I'm busy, so he doesn't have to come to harass me at night." Unas patted Darian on the shoulder and asked him to help push off the night's drinking.
The blonde boy nodded, thought about it, and asked curiously, "What kind of secret training, how about counting me as one?" ”
Unas scolded with a smile: "Baga, I said that it was a secret special training, and I will tell you more about it later, now we are in a hurry." ”
After saying that, he pulled Gordon to shake off Darien quickly, so that the guy would not be entangled.
Unas had always been jealous and jealous of Gordon's ability to control the flames, and he couldn't wait to try his hand at playing with fire.
The two men rushed to the stables, borrowed two horses, and galloped through the monastery gates toward the sea farther north.
