CHAPTER XXII
Chapter 22: Investigation
In the early morning, Shak's warm sun poured down like water.
Even during the Apostolic Tournament, the morning exercise in the Ranger camp was still going on as usual, but today was a little different from the usual - the female cavalry commander, who had always led by example, was absent from this morning exercise due to illness; However, this didn't attract the Rangers' attention too much, and after a little surprise, the conversation shifted to the first round of last night's Apostle Tournament.
The Rangers asked each other about last night, and when they learned that the first place in the first round was Ye Qi, they all let out an exclamation as expected.
"I know that His Excellency Ye Qi must be the strongest."
"That's right, that's right, I think the first place in this apostle competition will definitely be His Excellency Ye Qi."
"Well, the final is the day of the Midwinter Festival, let's go and cheer for His Excellency Ye Qi together"
"We'll be together when it's good"
……
The Rangers were divided into small groups by their own relationships, but most of them were unanimous; However, there is also a difference, Lancelot and other little girls in this similar remark, but they all glanced at the tent where the female cavalry captain was with resentment - at dawn, when they routinely went to find the female cavalry chief, they accidentally saw Ye Qi pressing the female cavalry captain, which made their perception of Ye Qi completely change.
"Hmph, it's just a pervert"
"It's just, the bastard guy who bullied Sister Els"
"We must rescue Sister Elsie and get away from that guy"
……
With the whispers of Lancelot and Gawain, the little girls unknowingly enter the state of brave warriors who fight dragons to save the princess......
……
In the afternoon, in the tent of the female cavalry commander, only Ye Qi was left sitting on the bed half-leaning - because the female cavalry commander did not have routine attendance in the morning, she took the initiative to undertake the patrol tasks around the camp in the afternoon; Although he had pierced the last layer of window paper, Ye Qi, who knew the character of the female cavalry commander, did not block it too much; After all, he likes an independent female cavalry captain, not a puppet with a female cavalry appearance but a very different personality because of him.
"Skill hand-to-hand combat reaches 30, skill upgrade to hand-to-hand combat mastery ......"
"Hand-to-hand combat mastery: After a long period of hand-to-hand training, you have a power that others can unimaginable when you fight with your bare hands. Effect: Increases power by 10% when fighting with people hand-to-hand. ”
After adding a little more skill point to hand-to-hand combat, the hand-to-hand combat that Ye Qi had been worried about for a long time also stepped into the level of mastery; Although he can't fight against the strong yet, at least it will make him unable to use the Enma Sword, so that he will not be able to resist the enemy without being restrained.
Glancing at the skill points that still had 41 points left, and then looking at the cold weapon expert who flew to 35 last night, Ye Qi really had the urge to throw all the skill points on the cold weapon expert to see if he would break through to the next realm - last night's battle with Xhaka was definitely the most embarrassing battle he had ever gained from the system, even if the harvest was equally rich, but the experience of being knocked down forty-two times in a row made him unforgettable.
Of course, impulses are just impulses, and there is still a long way to go in translating them into actual actions; Especially after roughly calculating that the next realm is likely to require 100 steps, Ye Qi will certainly not waste non-renewable skill points; However, Ye Qi did not change his idea of wanting to quickly improve his expert-level cold weapon skills; After all, with a sparring partner as good as Xhaka, if you don't take advantage of it, it will really be a tyrannical thing
However, all of this needs to be done after he has finished stealing the statue of the strange wolf - as the temporary instructor of this class of probationary apostles, he wants to escape the gaze of the apprentice apostles in the near future, which is only possible in the past few days of apostolic competition; Otherwise, when the apostle contest is over, and the temporary instructor's one-month time limit expires, he will still be left in Shak's words, and the strange wolf statue happens to be lost after that, it is difficult not to attract the attention of those who are interested; After seeing Zaka and the others who appeared in the first round of this apostle competition, Ye Qi, who had never underestimated the Demon Hunter Headquarters, became more cautious.
Putting on his boots, putting on the apostle's trench coat, and hanging the Enma sword on his waist again, Ye Qi slowly walked out of the tent - the oath and the sword of victory had been handed over to the female cavalry commander in the morning; After all, the Solar Sacred Weapon that had been awakened by the female cavalry captain was not in its previous sleeping state, and Ye Qi would be attacked like a lightning strike just if he wanted to touch it; While making Ye Qi feel that the Solar Class Sacred Weapon was extraordinary, he also emphasized that the female cavalry commander should be cautious several times; After all, being weak and carrying a treasure is itself an unforgivable original sin,
Sure enough, only strength is fundamental......
Ye Qi, who whispered a sentence, stepped onto Groening after finding a random Ranger and relaying the news of his visit to the Athletic Tower to the female cavalry commander; With a slight urge, Groning immediately ran towards the central castle on his own - although he fainted yesterday, with the words of the giant man and the relay of the female cavalry commander, he still knew the results of last night very clearly.
Last night, 329 people participated in the first round of the Apostles, and only 31 people successfully cleared the customs at the end; Not only is it the lowest percentage of apostolic contests passed in the past years, but it is also the one with the lowest number of qualified people; Even the most basic top 32 have not been gathered.
Of course, though, this doesn't bother the Witcher HQ; On the grounds that he was the first, he was directly promoted to the top 16, and the remaining 30 people competed for the remaining fifteen places; And this time was the time for thirty men to compete for fifteen places—even if he wanted to observe the Tower of Thorns, he needed a legitimate reason beyond doubt; And watching the game is just the right thing to do, not for the right reason
……
As soon as he entered the gate of the Central Castle, he had not yet approached the Athletic Tower, and from the collision of weapons and the endless cheers from inside, Ye Qi knew that the battle for the top sixteen of the Dao had begun.
"Are you sure you're sure you won't be discovered?" Handing Groening over to a ranger guarding the outside of the Athletic Tower, Ye Qi stepped into the tower and asked the wolf once; The strange wolf appreciates the contractor's caution, but it doesn't mean that it will be appreciative, so the strange wolf at this moment still replies with pride: "Of course, I'm Amon"
Listening to the strange wolf's confident words, Ye Qi's slightly nervous heart finally relaxed a little, but he was still cautious - after all, he was quite afraid of the existence of the Lord of the Six Towers in the Demon Hunter Headquarters; Even if the investigation is done by the strange wolf himself; After all, the strange wolf is still in a semi-sealed state, and no one can guarantee that it will not be discovered.
However, the current situation no longer allows him to find a better way to hunt "gods and demons" and obtain power, it is urgent for him; After all, he no longer wants to let the attitudes of others dictate his own existence; The previous deliberate calculations, now the deliberate co-optation is like a sharp thorn piercing his heart, making it difficult for him to adapt......
Ye Qi stepped on the stairs leading to the arena on the second floor with a steady figure, and the bell on the handle of the Enma made a crisp sound - at the moment of turning, the shadow servant hidden in his shadow that gave the consciousness of the strange wolf squirmed and quickly dissolved into the shadow of the wall, and the whole process quickly cut into the secret, and no one noticed it at all.
PS In the midst of people coming and going, the decadent head is extremely chaotic, and I can't calm down when I look at my relatives who are crying and making trouble...... In a week, Grandma will be buried; After being buried, Decadence reverts to its previous update rate...... Thanks again to the dragons. The monthly tickets of the three of Yun, the book of the Shadow and the book of zhou220 and the students who voted for the 3000 urges to change, although the decadence may not be available for various reasons these days, but I am still grateful; Again, Decadence bows and thanks everyone for their support~~~
