Chapter 131: Recruiting Trainees
Early the next morning, a lot of people had gathered at the gate of the Tower of Swords, most of them were parents with their children. In addition to them, there are some young people, ranging from their teens to their twenties. Although Mo Yu said yesterday that everyone can come to accept the inheritance, the concept that children have a future for cultivation has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people here. Except for young people in their twenties who are willing to come and try their luck, even older people are too embarrassed to come here to try it.
Lothar was one of the people waiting outside, an old man in his sixties, with gray hair and a somewhat rickety back, and he was accompanied by a boy of fifteen or sixteen, who was born relatively tall, but looked dejected.
When the people around him saw him, they would secretly point their fingers, because the child he brought was his grandson Parrado, who had not been selected by the three secret swordsmen. Even the village chief Peng Suo, who came here to maintain order, said: "Lothar, don't you know if your grandson is that piece of material? Why bother to let your grandson come over and be looked down upon? ”
Lothar spoke with a neutral voice, and he was dissatisfied: "His grandfather once said that Parrado is not an ordinary child. His grandfather is a master! if he can't become a secret swordsman, he will become something else, and he will definitely not be an ordinary person anyway!"
Parado lowered his head even deeper when he heard this, but Lothar pulled him into the line, ignoring the whispers and laughter of those around him.
They didn't have to wait long for the door of the Tower of Wild Swords to open. Sage Gawain himself came to the door, many people here knew him, long before leaving, Gawain was already a master, and even more so now. His greeting made many people feel flattered.
"You are welcome to come here and participate in our test. Now those who are ready to take the test are invited to enter the Tower of Swords with their accompanying family members. ”
When he had finished saying this, no one moved.
The village chief standing at the front widened his eyes, stretched out his finger and pointed to his nose and said, "Can we go in too?"
Gawain said: "The test may last for a while, and instead of waiting outside, you should come inside and sit down." ”
These people have lived around the Magic Tower since they were young, and some of their relatives and friends have become members of the Tower of Swords. However, the vast majority of them are not eligible to enter the Tower of Swords. Even Lothar, whose father was a great magician, had only entered the Tower of Swords when he was a child.
Now they are excited to be able to enter the tower with the accompanying test, and the experience will become a rare conversation for them, regardless of the results of the children's tests.
The children and young men who took the test were taken away by Gawain, and the rest were placed in a side hall on the second floor, because of the lack of furniture downstairs, some carpets were laid in the room, and everyone sat on the floor, and Gawain prepared some snacks and water for them. They looked around the room stiffly.
Gallo was left behind to accompany the men. He saw that these people were full of curiosity, but he didn't dare to ask, so he took the initiative to chat with them. Not only do you introduce them to the things in the Tower of the Wild Sword, but you also talk to them about the outside world.
"The best snack in Silver Sand City is barbecue, and you can get a lot of game from the forest in the east, from wild boars to rabbits, all of which have their own flavors......
"If you want to count the magnificent scenery, you still have to go south, the empire's several big rivers are very beautiful, and the mountains are not bad......"
“...... You haven't seen anything made of the Tower of China, it's really easy to use, and now on the mainland, from south to north, there is no place where you don't use their goods. Gallo took out a few delicate folding knives, a few combs, and a few pairs of shoes from the ring and handed them to everyone present. The people of this village have been living in this ravine for thousands of years, and most of the things they wear are home-grown goods, and only a few people have brought things from the outside world, and most of them come from the orc tribes with poor materials.
These people are reluctant to pass on the good things from the Tower of China, and their faces are full of envy.
Papa Lothar loved a knife, he was a leathermaker in his daily life, and he needed it very much to cut leather goods. Compared to this knife, the knives he used for many years were simply rubbish.
Lothar, who had always been a very direct person, pinched the knife and asked, "Can I buy this knife?" I can exchange it with the leather goods of the house, and if not, I also have the gold coins that have been handed down from the past. ”
"There's no need. Gallo said with a grin.
Lothar said, "Don't you want to sell it? I can give you a good price." ”
Gallo looked at him and said, "You don't have to envy these things, and you don't have to buy them. The Desert Rain Sage is a very generous and benevolent leader, and this time she is here to meet you for the first time, and she will give you a gift of these things in your hands. ”
"Give it to us? How is that possible?" exclaimed Lothar.
Gallo said: "There is nothing impossible, you don't know the wealth of Silver Sand City, not to mention that it is about to join the even richer China Tower." Although these things are also good things on the outside, and they can be said to be quite valuable, the Desert Rain Sage is still willing to give you this gift as your thank you for her support. ”
The village chief reminded, "Lord Garo, we are grateful for the generosity of the Rain Sage and you, but the children of these people have not yet been confirmed to become the cadets of the Tower of the Wild Sword......
Lothar also put down the knife and said, "Yes, although I like this knife very much, we can't take advantage of you. If my grandson hadn't become an apprentice, I'd still be willing to pay for it. ”
Gallo picked up the knife from the carpet and put it in Lothar's hand, and said, "Don't worry, just come here, whether you become a mad swordsman apprentice or not." You can take this gift, not just today, but for the next week, anyone who comes here and has their family tested by us will be able to get this gift. ”
Everyone present was thrilled and thanked the Holy One for his generosity.
At this time, Gawain appeared again with the young men and children.
Lothar looked up and saw a look of happiness on her grandson's face.
Gawain said, "Out of a total of thirty candidates, twenty have passed our test, and from today onwards, they will be apprentices of the Tower of the Wild Sword. But the remaining 10 were also recruited together for training. We will give them the qualification of a preparatory apprenticeship, and if they can be recognised during the year of study, they will also be converted to a full-fledged apprenticeship. The inheritance of the Tower of the Wild Sword is different from the Tower of the Secret Sword, and most people have the possibility of mastering some abilities as long as they are not too poorly qualified. ”
