Chapter 182: Bestowal Ceremony
The so-called knight award ceremony is not as cumbersome as Lin Du imagined, and it can even be said that the procedure is quite concise.
An orange combat suit, a Red Devil's binding permission card, and a new ID certificate.
Lin Mu held these three things in his hand, and stood up straight like the other trainees, but his eyes couldn't help but look at the corner of the hall.
Phirina!
Looking at the girl who was both familiar and a little unfamiliar, he couldn't help but clench the combat uniform in his hand.
Wait a little longer, I'll be sure to make you remember!
With this in mind, he withdrew his gaze and met the annoyed little face of Juliet in the front row.
"Humph!"
She snorted lightly, leaving the back of Lin Mu's head, and used her right hand on her leg to make a fierce grip.
Thinking of her extraordinary 'wildness' on the bed, Lin Mu immediately felt a chill in his crotch, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
At the beginning, when he received the other party, he actually didn't think too much about it. But since it has been done, it is natural to have to shoulder the corresponding responsibility. Of course, he will not give up other women he cares about for her.
Let's find a chance to talk to her!
Shaking his head slightly, he temporarily suppressed the troubles in his heart and looked up at the two big knights in gorgeous uniforms on the stage.
Ronte Moore, the sixth seat of the Grand Knight Council of the Knight Hall, is in charge of the Knight Training Camp under the Knight Hall, as well as the award ceremony for the high-ranking knights and below.
Mason Firami, the chief of the Grand Knight Council, the **oss of the Knight Palace, and also ranks among the core members of the Supreme Council.
Under normal circumstances, the chief knight will naturally not participate in the red knight award ceremony. However, it is obvious that Juliet has a high status in the other party's mind, which also adds a bit of solemnity to the originally simple ceremony.
"In the first quarter of the 11th year of the Dark Calendar, I am honored to see so many young people join the ranks of defending Evra and become the Iron Sword Knights who are about to bask in the light of glory!"
It was Ronte who spoke, and although his mechanical eyes were terrifying, his low and hoarse voice, combined with his powerful fist swings, was enough to arouse the young man's emotions. In just one sentence, most of the trainees' breathing became short.
"But to become a glorious knight of the Iron Sword, it's not enough to have great power."
As soon as the conversation turned, he tapped his fist on his chest and said in a deep voice, "We must also abide by the iron code!" ”
Turning around, with a slight wave of his right hand, a three-dimensional projection of a cast-iron greatsword appeared behind the high platform.
The sword is about four meters high and two and a half meters wide, and the blade is inscribed with tiny golden letters. Lin Mu recognized this sword because it stood in the very center of City 0, and it was also the origin of the name Iron Sword.
With a hint of emotion on his face, Ron was silent for a moment, and finally read the words aloud.
"I follow the justice cast on the iron sword!"
"I will slay all those ugly and cruel beasts, and destroy those machines disguised as humans!"
"My flesh and blood will be a strong shield to defend the peaceful Pure Land of Evra!"
"One day, I will break through the walls of the Macphren and use my sword to punish the machine that has committed so many evil deeds!"
As soon as his voice stopped, the trainees, including Lin Mu, who had been instructed in advance, immediately repeated the oath of the iron sword in a loud voice.
Finally, Runte announced loudly: "In the first quarter of the 11th year of the Dark Calendar, the Red Knight Medal Ceremony is over!" ”
With that, he and Mason, who had been watching from the sidelines, did not stop at all, turned and descended the steps, and left the medal hall.
"Ahh It's finally over! ”
Stretching, Juliet turned around, as if she had lost the bad mood she had just now, and grinned, "S-rank seed-sama, have you decided which department you want to join?" ”
After the award ceremony, the trainees who officially become Red Knights are free to choose the organization to apply to join. Of course, if you apply for the three comprehensive organizations with a C grade, you will definitely be rejected cynically.
As the only Lin Mu who achieved an S-level score in this assessment, he could choose any of the three official organizations of the Knight Palace, the Inquisition, and the Arbitration Court to join, and enjoy the preferential treatment as a seed.
However, now he just wanted to take this opportunity to rest for two days, so he shook his head and said, "I haven't decided yet, I'm going to think about it for a few more days!" ”
Saying this, Lin Mu suddenly raised his hand and pinched her little nose, and said with a smile: "What about you? Are you ready to join the Knights' Hall? ”
Juliet has achieved an A-level grade, and under normal circumstances, she should choose one of the three comprehensive organizations under the Knight Hall to join, but since her own uncle is the **oss of the Knight Hall, it must be more comfortable to stay in the Knight Hall.
Juliet, whose nose was pinched, thumped his chest, and while trying to break free, she said in distress, "Don't! No! I've heard that Christine is going to trouble me, and if she joins the Knights' Hall, wouldn't it be a good opportunity for her? ”
Hearing this name, Lin Mu's body stiffened slightly, and his right hand couldn't help but let go of her nose.
Not only Juliet, in fact, he also got similar news from Lar Crow.
Christine, the crazy woman, once threatened to kill him and Juliet in front of many people at a drinking party in City 0.
In the face of this kind of crazy woman who is strong in the background and has an unscrupulous personality, Lin Mu both hates and feels helpless.
After all, even if he wanted to kill the other party, but in the world inside the walls, he had no chance to do it.
As for using the space-time teleportation matrix to transport the other party to another world?
Unless he was forced to have no choice, he didn't want to do it, because the other party was not a nameless little person, but the only daughter of the chief knight of the knight's hall.
If Christine were missing, he could guarantee that Mason would have people check the surveillance that was almost everywhere within the walls.
That way, unless he doesn't go back to Evra...... Eventually, the problem will be found out.
There is only a chance outside the walls!
Sighing in his heart, he raised his hand and rubbed Juliet's head, and said with a wry smile: "With the protection of Chief Mason's Grand Knight, what can Christine do to you?" It's me, I have to find a way to avoid the limelight! ”
"You're right! I don't have to be afraid of her at all! ”
Hearing his words, Juliet had a slight smug look on her face. Then, she leaned over and said shyly, "Actually, I've heard that a few days ago, Christine was going to go outside the wall to perform a relatively time-consuming mission, so, at least for a short time, you don't have to worry about anything." ”
"Outside the walls on a mission?"
With a move in his heart, he grabbed Juliet's arm and walked out of the hall, asking casually, "Do you know what mission she is going to perform?" ”
