Chapter 9 Fear of life

Thirty years ago, when Linshan Castle was expanded, the old city wall was not demolished, but renovated.

As a result, Linshan City has a distinction between the inner city and the outer city. The outer city is basically filled with houses and shops, while the inner city is filled with buildings such as the castle lord's palace, the temple of the Holy See, the hall of the branch of the mercenary union, and the hall of the branch of the Warrior Alliance.

Although the area of the inner city of Linshan City is less than one-third of the whole of Linshan City, it is the most important part of Linshan City.

At this time, the carriage of Ryan and his party was still on the streets of the outer city

"There are so many people!" Ryan lifted the translucent curtain and watched the streets crowd with people.

But there was one thing that struck Ryan as strange - from time to time, he could see groups of men walking down the streets, wearing cloth armor and carrying various weapons.

"What's going on with these people? Why do they wear cloth armor? Are weapons still allowed in the city? ”

Ryan asked.

“。。。”

Everyone else was speechless at Ryan. He's like a curious baby, always asking this and that.

In fact, while still on Earth, Ryan had a strong thirst for knowledge. However, his intellectual curiosity only manifests itself in the things he is interested in. For example, he is not very interested in the knowledge taught in school.

And now that he has come to this strange world, everything here is foreign to him, which completely stimulates his curiosity. That's why he's like this - incarnates 100,000 whys.

"Those are mercenaries." Yang Xinyue, who was sitting in Ryan's arms, closed her eyes and didn't want to speak, and then Suser consciously solved Ryan's doubts.

"The so-called mercenaries are a group of warriors who beg for their lives for a living. As long as they have money, they will take any job. ”

"So, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can go to the mercenary union to issue a commission. As long as you have enough money, someone will definitely pick it up. Of course, you must confirm the character of the mercenary who takes on the mission. ”

"Even with the behemoth of the Mercenary Guild staring at them, they won't do anything out of the ordinary easily. But there will inevitably be some scum among them - as long as there are enough interests, they will even kill the employer. ”

Ryan nodded his head in understanding.

The mercenaries of this world are the mercenaries of the earth! Although there are some differences, the nature is the same. And the so-called mercenary union is the intermediary and overseer.

…………

Karl College is located in the eastern part of the inner city and was founded 30 years ago when the castle was expanded.

Because it was in the city, the speed of the carriage was not very fast, so it took them more than ten minutes to get from the outer city to Karl College.

After getting out of the car, the first thing Ryan saw was a two-story building. At the foot of the foot, there is a paved path of stone slabs, lined with large trees, and there are no other buildings nearby, which also makes it very quiet.

It is the residence of the Dean of Karl College.

When he was in the car before, Yang Xinyue said that he would take him to see the dean of the academy first. After all, she didn't have the authority to arrange for Ryan to enroll, but she could convince the head of the house to open a back door for Ryan.

"Grandpa Li, I'll come to play with you when I'm free!"

Li Yang, who was just about to leave in the carriage, heard this, his heart suddenly tightened, and he said with a wry smile: "My little princess! You can do it, don't toss my old bones. You'd better find your Grandpa Yun! ”

Li Yang shook his head and left here as if he had fled. Although he also likes Yang Xinyue very much - after all, when people are old, they will like to have a child to accompany them, not to mention that he has no offspring.

But......

"Uh......"

Ryan looked at Yang Xinyue, what did this little girl do to Li Yang that made him so scared.

"Miss, let's leave first." Suser first said hello to Yang Xinyue, then called Lin Lin and Zhang Xiao to leave, and went to the admissions office for a retest.

This is the rule set by the head of Carr College. After the tutors who went out to recruit students took a test in their village to determine their eligibility for admission, they had to take several tests when they arrived at Carr College. This is just to prevent the guru from stuffing people in.

However, as long as you can "hold the 'test stone' up to your waist and hold it for a minute", then you will definitely not be stumped by the tests conducted in the Carr Academy.

And this is another layer of screening, weeding out those who barely meet the requirements because of luck, and selecting those who are truly qualified.

Ryan couldn't have imagined that someone who could set such strict rules would open the back door for him.

However, now Ryan can only believe in Yang Xinyue, who packed the ticket to him.

"Grandpa Yun!"

Yang Xinyue directly pushed open the wooden door and shouted loudly.

But no one answered her, but there was a rush of footsteps from upstairs.

No matter how you think about it, this frequency can't be the footsteps of an old man.

And this is evidenced by the fact that the owner of the footsteps came down the stairs. Coming down from the stairs was a plump girl with long black hair, who looked to be about the same age as Hevina.

"Gong ......" originally planned to pounce on Yang Xinyue and paste her face with facial cleanser, but after seeing Ryan standing behind Yang Xinyue, she immediately stayed in place.

"Ah~!"

After a scream, the girl was about to run back upstairs, but was grabbed by Yang Xinyue's hand. With the strength of a girl, she would definitely be able to break free from Yang Xinyue's hands, but even if she was afraid, she subconsciously didn't want to hurt Yang Xinyue, so she didn't struggle.

"Come, let me introduce you." Yang Xinyue pulled the girl to Ryan, "Her name is Sakura Sakai, and she is my personal maid." ”

"His name is Ryan. It's my new servant, and he'll be my knight from now on!" ”

"Hello!"

Looking at Sakai Sakura, who was squatting on the ground and hiding most of her body behind Yang Xinyue, Ryan knew that it was almost impossible for her to speak first, so he took the lead in saying hello.

Yang Xinyue pulled Sakai Sakura's hand a few times, and she poked her head out.

And her eyes were erratic, as if she had done something wrong, and she didn't dare to look at Ryan.

"You, you, hello!"

Because she was too shy, not only did her face turn red, but she also stuttered a little when she spoke.

"Sakura-chan, where did Grandpa Yun go?"

Yang Xinyue asked.

"Wang ...... The Dean of House is in the office. ”

"Oh!"

After getting the information she wanted, Yang Xinyue let go of her hand. Then Sakura, who was about to cry, ran back upstairs like the wind.

Ryan was speechless. He's seen shy, but he's never seen a shy Sakura like that.

"Let's go!"

The two of them walked out of the building and turned right, and walked along the quiet stone path for four or five minutes until they came to a four-story building.

Led by Yang Xinyue, Ryan went to the door of a room on the far side of the fourth floor, and there was a sign hanging on the door - "Dean's Office".

"You wait outside first, and when I call you, you come in."

After speaking, Yang Xinyue opened the door and walked in. And when she entered, she closed the door so tightly that Ryan couldn't even eavesdrop on what they were saying.

It's just that after a while......

The door opened automatically.
