Chapter 4 Graduation Assessment (1)
Carl woke up for an unknown amount of time.
He only felt that he was very tired, very tired, and if it hadn't been for the heavy rain that woke him up, he would probably have to continue to sleep.
When he returned to town, he happened to meet neighbors carrying Carl Sr.'s coffin to be buried.
"Why did you come back?" said Uncle Duke, "We heard that the Bishop had taken you away, and we thought you had good luck, thanks to the blessing of your grandfather's spirit in heaven." ”
"I'm not going to go with him. Karl didn't explain much, he silently picked up his grandfather's portrait and walked to the front of the line.
"Okay. Duke looked at Carl's back, shook his head with mixed feelings, and then returned to the funeral procession.
It was especially rainy that day, and the atmosphere was very dreary.
The rain forms a dense line between heaven and earth, as if someone wants to stitch the sky and the earth together. The clouds are thick, the sky is getting darker, and the sky and the earth seem to be really getting closer and closer, which makes people feel unprecedentedly depressed.
Then the thunder continued to roar, and the speed at which people swung their shovels became faster and faster, and the last link between old Carl and the world was finally completely cut off by the loess.
"Go back quickly, such bad weather, a long delay will definitely make people seriously ill. Uncle Duke pulled Karl and said, "Let's all go back." ”
"You can stay at my house for the next few days, anyway, you will graduate in a few days, and then you will be able to successfully become a magician and enter the Higher School of Magic." Uncle Duke looked at Carl and deliberately changed the topic to comfort him, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to invite you to a meal then." ”
"No, uncle. ”
"Why not, by the time you graduate, I'll be a bad old man selling fruit, and you won't necessarily recognize me when you walk on the road. ”
Seeing that Carl's mood was a little better, Duke patted Carl on the shoulder: "Let's go quickly, your aunt must have cooked the meal and is waiting for us at home." ”
"Hmm. ”
The funeral is finally over, and Carl is slowly coming out of the shadows these days.
It's just that the innocence and liveliness have nothing to do with this child, and he begins to become taciturn, which may be the only way for a boy to become a man. He's grown up, Uncle Duke thinks.
The day of the graduation assessment is the most important turning point in the life of all the children who are about to graduate, if they successfully open the source of their birth, they will be able to advance to become a magician, if they fail, then they have to be an ordinary person.
So on this day, all the children were very nervous, but at the same time very much looking forward to it.
"Look, Carl is here. ”
I don't know whose words it was, but the children in the whole group turned their heads and focused their eyes on Carl.
"He's not nervous at all, and sure enough, it's Carl. ”
"That's right, I've heard that the bishop wants to take him as a disciple, and it would be nice if I had that blessing too. ”
"I don't know if he will choose to cultivate the ice element or the fire element after opening the source of his life. ”
"Either way, he's going to be strong!"
......
Carl is still the same as ever, as long as he shows up on campus, he is the center of attention.
But this time, he just stood quietly at the end of the line and didn't say anything. He seems to have something on his mind, and he naturally has something on his mind.
However, Carl didn't know at this time that his natal source had been sealed.
It was impossible for not only him, but everyone present to know that the peerless genius would become a waste after today.
"The Dean is here. ”
I don't know who shouted, and the noisy crowd suddenly fell silent.
This dean is not young, although he is only in his twenties, he is already a blue-clothed magician. The level of the magician is divided according to the color of the rainbow, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple is divided into seven levels from top to bottom, then the blue corresponds to the sixth class magician.
The dean's name is Lin Luo, and it is said that his family background is very strong, and he came here to be the dean just for experience, and as long as the three-year term expires, he will be transferred back to the royal court.
Although Lin Luo was very handsome, everyone's eyes were not on him.
Who is that girl next to him?
I've never seen this person in school, but she's really beautiful, and unless she wears that long green dress, it must have no effect on others.
Smart, elegant, and perfect, if you feel ashamed to see a girl, then she is probably indescribably beautiful.
But she has short blue ear-length hair, which is clean, neat, and cool.
Is there such a girl in the world? But how can there be such a girl?
But she didn't smile either, her expression was as cold as ice, and like the dean, how nice it would be if she smiled, every boy thought so.
"Let me introduce to you, this is a new classmate, Lin Fei'er, she will also participate in today's graduation assessment. Dean Lin's words made everyone dumbfounded, but he didn't seem to notice it, he pointed at Carl and said, "You are standing behind this classmate." ”
Lin Fei'er, this is the dean's sister, right? Yes, everyone thinks so.
Graduation at the entrance may sound like an exaggeration, but if you really pass the assessment based on your strength, the results should also take effect.
Whether this is a backdoor or not, everyone is thinking about it, but no one dares to question it.
Lin Fei'er walked up behind Carl lightly, and she said softly: "You are Carl, I've heard your name for a long time, I don't know if it's really as rumored to be." ”
He turned around and met the pair of bright eyes, but he didn't speak, and turned away again.
Knock, knock, his heart was beating a little fast.
"Why don't you speak?" Lin Fei'er asked.
"I ...... I haven't heard of that rumor you've heard, so I don't know. ”
Knock knock, knock knock.
"Hehe, you're kind of funny. ”
He saw Lin Fei'er's smile, knock knock, knock knock......
"I'm not late for today. Lin Fei'er said: "There may be a whole day in line." ”
"Oh. ”
"You're boring, too. ”
Knock –
In this way, Carl met the girl who made his heart beat for the first time, but he didn't know how to cherish it, because he didn't make girls happy with words. And after tomorrow, they should part ways, so the reunion will be long before that.
Lin Fei'er asked again, "If you pass the assessment, what attribute of magic elements will you choose to cultivate?"
"I don't know. ”
"Is there anyone else who doesn't know this question?" Lin Fei'er was simply stunned by Carl's answer, shouldn't he choose which element he was familiar with.
"What about you?"
"Of course, why don't you choose the same. Lin Fei'er continued: "My brother said that you are a genius, he has never praised me as a genius, I am not convinced, I have to be better than you." ”
Karl asked rhetorically, "Don't you know that either?"
"Haha, that's right. She laughed again.
