Chapter 80: Punishment

Xiu stood at the door of the office nervously, and behind him were the twenty-four knights who had participated in the surprise assessment that day, plus the twenty-five people of the Correction Sea, who were standing in two long lines in the corridor against the walls on both sides.

This is different from facing the icy Francis at Caslana Castle, where Xiu only has to worry about himself. But here, Xiu is worried about the other twenty-three.

As for those who did not participate in the field assessment, the instructor really did what he said, and those who did not go out of the city to participate in the assessment were really punished for three days, and they had to complete it in one day. The instructors showed no mercy that day, and those who remained in the city did not eat anything or drink a little water for almost the whole day, because by the time of the break they had not finished their training, and their rest time was used to replenish their progress.

When Xiu returned to the training city, his ears were filled with the cries, screams, and wails of the recruits.

Because the instructors even used long whips, although they wore light armor, the instructors specially picked out unprotected places to whip.

More than 20 people in Xiu's group were given a death order by Rhodria and were absolutely not allowed to pass, otherwise they would be directly expelled from the Knights.

The punishment of others should never be interfered with.

That afternoon was the most memorable day for all the people of the 1st Brigade, and they passed the test of death, whether they participated in the assessment or not.

Some have crossed the distance of death, others have experienced the torment of death.

None of those left behind chose to back down. Even though they wailed, wept, tired, desperate, and even unconscious, they did not flinch.

The unconscious man walked into the training ground on his own as soon as he woke up.

Because this is the only way they can change their fate, the only way they can make themselves no longer live at the bottom of the destiny.

Right now...

Xiu sighed.

I don't know if it's the right thing to do that day, but if you don't do it, you will definitely not be able to reach your destination.

But his heart is very bottomless.

At this time, a hand pressed on Xiu's shoulder.

Xiu turned his head and saw Anthony. He showed a reassuring smile to Xiu, "Don't worry, I'll carry everything with you, after all, I also agreed to your suggestion." ”

"I wish something didn't happen." The bitterness on Xiu's face was already obvious, but Anthony's words made him feel a warm current in his heart.

He was genuinely worried about what terrible punishment he would receive for it. The punishments in the bootcamp are endless, but they all have one thing in common: they can make you feel endless despair.

"Repair?" Instructor Suzanne poked out half of her eyes from the office to look at Xiu, her long fiery red hair spilling down from behind her, and a faint ripple could be seen.

Susanna's sudden appearance made the two of them stand up in an instant, and responded loudly, "Yes!" ”

Suzanne looked at Xiu suspiciously, not understanding why he was so serious. But she didn't think much of it, she just thought she was too nervous, so she beckoned, "Come in." ”

Xiu entered the office uneasily.

Gerald sat behind his desk, flanked by the two examiners, Rodria and Lirum, who were in charge of the assessment that day.

After the two examiners saw the repair, their reactions were different. Rodria greeted Xiu with a polite smile, while Lilum grimaced at Xiu.

It's provocative.,It's not cute at all.,And it's also sticking out a little tongue.。

Xiu cramped also took this as a greeting and nodded in response.

The current Xiu looked like a little hamster being watched by a group of giants, and he couldn't do anything but tremble.

This appearance made Lilum laugh, and she suddenly didn't want to pursue the things that had put Rhodelia in danger.

"Do you know what you've done?" Gerald spoke suddenly.

"I... I..."Xiu didn't know what to say for a while. Because he didn't know what Gerald was referring to. Is it about throwing away the horse armor? Or is it about risking your life with the whole team to jump off a cliff? Or did you put the examiner in danger and almost get hit... I seem to have jumped over his head? Is this disrespectful?

"Throwing away the armor, leading the team to jump off the cliff, endangering the chief, and jumping over the chief's head... Cultivate your great ability. Gerald said in a flat tone.

Although Gerald's tone seemed calm, everyone could feel the vague anger in his words.

He shifted his gaze to Xiu's eyebrows, and locked his terrifying eyes on Xiu's face.

When looking at someone, the so-called empathy is not to look into the eyes of others, but to look at the middle of the other person's eyes, or the middle of the eyebrows, so that the other person will have a feeling of "you are looking at me, looking into my eyes". Because there is only one focus of the eye, it will feel awkward to look at only one eye.

When Gerald looks at someone in this way, there are generally only two situations:

One, he's looking at family or a friend who has died.

Two, he's looking at the enemy.

But his eyes have always been like a lion who wants to choose people to devour, and he is a sophisticated lion who will precipitate that rage into the deepest part of his eyes, so he looks at everyone with similar results.

Well, Xiu didn't seem to be able to resist this coercion today, he looked scared and worried.

Even though he had always had that look from the moment he walked through the door. Maybe it's like this before you enter the door. But overall, Gerrard is still very satisfied with Xiu's current performance, because this gives him the feeling that he is "reprimanding" people.

"Do you have anything to say, no, then you can go with your squad to collect the punishment."

"Sir Gerald!" Xiu answered almost before Gerald could speak, "All this is my own doing, and it has nothing to do with anyone else!" It's my decision! They don't deserve to be punished! ”

"Are they involved?" Gerald asked suddenly.

"Huh?" Xiu didn't know how to respond.

"Don't 'Huh?'. They participated, participated in the process of your decision-making, and executed your decision, and the point is that they carried out your decision! Gerald slowly stood up, "You're all in the first squad, you're a group. Where is the reason for a man to be punished? You say, right? ”

"That's not right!" Xiu resolutely rejected his supreme commander's words: "Could it be that if someone in the first squad dies, we have to die with him?" ”

The atmosphere plummeted to freezing.

The question was so acute that Xiu didn't realize the depth of what he had just said.

Gerald's face changed suddenly.

Not only him, but the instructors present had wrong faces.

"Xiu, take your words back!" Suzanne said very seriously.

"I... I..."Xiu sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, he didn't know why, but he still said obediently, "I'm sorry, I just had..."

"No need. Where is the reason to take back the words spoken. Gerald suddenly stopped, "Xiu, you have to remember what you are saying now." If someone in your team dies in the future, don't drag your whole team to his funeral, you know? ”

When Rodria heard this, his eyes widened slightly, as if he had heard some incredible news.
