Chapter 119: The Apprentice Arrives
In the underworld, a long procession is heading towards the territory of the White Wolf, a team of more than a dozen goblins, who are from the kingdom of Sanzan and are selected from several noble children.
Saying that they are the children of nobles, in fact, they also have a little bit of high-level goblin blood, but in fact, they are only the last of the nobles, because the goblins with real status have no desire to come to the white wolf to learn, and although those rune machines are magical, they are not enough to attract them to leave their territory.
Once they leave, there will inevitably be a power vacuum for a while, which will give opportunities to those who have coveted their place for a long time, and some bad intentions will definitely try to do something in this time.
Although goblins are savage and cruel creatures, they are still very sensitive to power, and the combination of sensitivity to power and cruel nature brings a fierce and brutal power struggle, and it is naturally impossible for those who covet the power in front of them to go to the white wolf to learn any skills.
However, although the powerful people have no interest in learning from the white wolf, the common people do not have the opportunity to participate in the study, and they do not have the channels to learn about these news, because these news channels are completely controlled by the upper goblins, so in the end, all of them are still nobles to some extent.
Kuro is the leader of the team sent by the Sanzan Kingdom to learn from the white wolf, he is no different from other goblins, with a green body, a short body and an ugly face, if there is any difference, it is that he is much uglier than the average goblin, his face seems to have been cut by some sharp something, his skin is cracked, and he can be a monster in a horror movie.
As the leader of this team, Kulo naturally has a clear understanding of the origins of the other members of this team, they are from various powerful families in the kingdom, and Kulo himself is from the family of the mountain ants, to some extent, it can be regarded as having royal blood, before they set off, the mountain ants personally met with the team, and at the same time instructed them to study the rituals of the Rune Sect well, they accepted Kulo as the leader of the team.
After all, Kulo has some degree of royal blood, and being able to be the leader is also an acceptable result for everyone.
"What kind of organization is that mysterious Rune Sect, you say?" someone in the team whispered, and the words never stopped all the way, and Kuro was already a little tired of listening.
"It's probably something like a goblin or a gnome guild, or I can't think of anyone else who could invent that kind of magical machine. The other goblin replied that before they left, the priests of the Rune Sect had demonstrated the magical functions of these machines to them, which shocked the goblins and made them curious, hearing that they were able to master the use of such a magical instrument, and they all expressed their willingness to carry out the task.
When they were chosen by the family, they had no idea what they were going to do, and it was not until the priests explained to them that they understood their mission thoroughly.
Originally, they were still a little worried about whether they would be killed as a living sacrifice, and the goblin clan still had the custom of killing the living for sacrifice, even the royal family also had such a custom, but the people who were killed were generally ordinary people, but the precedent of sacrificing nobles to sacrifice was not unprecedented, and after getting the exact answers of those priests, they could finally rest assured.
From a long distance, Kuro saw the team waiting for them in the distance, and it was several goblins in robes, which were covered with dense runes, which looked mysterious and strange.
The runes on these robes are not ornaments, they all have corresponding effects, they can play the role of lighting, warmth, cooling, it can be said that it is a small air conditioner that can be carried on the body, the white wolf spent a day and a night to process more than a dozen of these robes, used as the standard clothing worn by the priests.
The robes often represent mystery, and this decoration perfectly fits the apprentices' imagination of the white wolf power, and they feel that since the white wolf power can make such a powerful instrument, then it is naturally mysterious.
"Are you the apprentices of the kingdom of Sanzan?" asked them as they approached, a priest standing there waiting.
Kuro nodded, and handed the priest the promised identification material, which was a clay block with many incomplete marks drawn on it.
The priest took the clay block, shook out another clay block from his cuff, and spliced the two clay blocks together, the shape just fits, and the marks on the surface of the two clay blocks also fit together, turning into an auto-excitation rune, the rune outputs a little earth element, and the other side of the clay block immediately appears with the two Chinese characters "welcome".
"The audit is correct, you come with me. The priest nodded, put away the clay blocks, turned around, and led the group of apprentices in the direction of the schoolhouse.
Before Kuro could recover from the miraculous change that had emanated from the clay fast, the man behind him pushed him twice, only to realize that the priest in front of him had already left, so he hurriedly followed.
Turning around the tunnel, after turning the last corner, the magnificent school suddenly appeared in the eyes of the apprentices.
"It's .... Where do the gods live?" asked one of the apprentices in an uncertain tone.
"No... This is where you will live and study in the future, and the Holy Beast of our sect will also reside here, and he will teach you personally. The priest shook his head, and uttered the answer that he had memorized in his mind.
"Wouldn't it....?!" "I.... I'm dreaming." There was an uproar among the apprentices, who apparently did not believe that what the priest said was true.
The priest laughed with disdain, but not in his expression, for the white wolf had asked them to be moody, and had trained them many times.
The priest was laughing at the goblins for their lack of knowledge, and if they knew that this building was built by the white wolf overnight, their jaws would have dropped in surprise, and there were still too many miracles waiting for them to see where the white wolf was.
However, the White Wolf forbade the clerics to show off his achievements to outsiders, because one of the virtues of the Rune Sect was modesty, and the White Wolf would never boast of his strengths unless he was bragging to a friend.
The priest led the group of apprentices into the schoolhouse, and along the way they were starving, so they had to eat before they could go on other things.
"What is this... Good fragrant taste. Before he could enter the restaurant, a goblin was amazed, in fact, he smelled the smell of charcoal-grilled underground worms, which were skewered with mushrooms for barbecue, which was the most common food for goblins in the White Wolf Territory.
However, the white wolves, black wolves and foxes all express their inability to accept such things as underground worms, as they have lived on the ground for a long time and survive by eating other small animals, it is really difficult for them to use insects as their own food, and being able to watch the goblins eat these white pulp insects one by one is the limit of their patience.
Goblins' sense of taste and smell doesn't seem to be the same as that of the white wolf and others, and the underground worms that make the white wolf feel disgusting make them have a great appetite, and the aroma is stronger after charcoal roasting, and the mix and match with mushrooms is completely irresistible to them.
A dozen goblins gathered around the table, and the skewers were eaten clean, and the priest took them to the bathroom and asked them to take a bath and clean themselves of dirt and smell.
The goblins were puzzled by this, they had never bathed since they were young, and the priest's request was strange to them.
"Why is there so much nonsense, let you wash it, you will wash it!" Seeing that the apprentices were struggling and not wanting to get into the water, the priest got a little angry and drove the goblins into the water one by one.
This is how the white wolf treated these goblin priests in the first place, and the scene of being driven into the river by the white wolf one by one to bathe is still a psychological shadow for the priest, and now it is finally his turn to create a shadow for others, I don't know why, the priest feels very happy when he sees others suffering.
Listening to the wailing of the goblins in the water, the priest did not hesitate to increase the amount of water from the outlet, and the wailing never stopped during the whole bathing process, but every goblin who tried to jump out of the pool was pushed back by the priest.
"It's just a bath, you can't bear it, and it's not to kill you, why are you so wasted?" the priest couldn't stand the wail a little, and yelled loudly, in fact, he was also a little weak-hearted, after all, he didn't perform much better than these goblins in the first bath.
But it seemed that his words had worked, and after he had said this, the wailing in the pool was a little quieter, and after some time, when the cleansing was over, the priest arranged for them to live in lodging first, and then arranged for them to meet the white wolf when all the apprentices from all the nations had arrived.
After a while, the apprentices sent by the other two countries also arrived in the territory of the White Wolf one after another, and each apprentice group received the same hospitality.
In order to prevent them from hugging together, the white wolf specially broke them up, and arranged the goblins from different countries to the same dormitory, and it remains to be seen how effective this will be.
