Chapter 3 Petersenburg

The two men quickened their pace towards Peterson. Along the way, I kept seeing people coming out of the mountains or woods on both sides. They were all heading to Petersen.

It seems that this demon hunting training camp for members of school-age demon hunting families all over the world is really quite a lot!

Fateh stabbed Wang Ningyuan and said, "These people who came on the day of the start of registration are all children of the nearby demon hunting family, and Lu Yuan is afraid that he will be late, so he came early." Only you, the farthest, came on the same day. ”

Wang Ningyuan listened to Fate's words, and also felt that it was indeed a miracle that his family could travel across the ocean to be so punctual.

Petersenburg is getting closer, and the closer it gets, the more it feels grandiose. The castle is located next to a large river. The entire castle is made of processed black ashlar blocks.

The castle walls are not only high, but also asymmetrical hexagonal. That's because you have to adapt to the terrain around you.

There are six tall watchtowers scattered around the wall. Many of the spires inside the castle are taller than the watchtowers on the periphery. So much so that the spires could be seen outside.

Before approaching the castle, the heavy wooden doors of the castle were open to welcome the students. But there was a person in a black robe standing at the door, it seemed that he was the "security guard" of this ancient castle, right? Wang Ningyuan guessed.

Fatt whispered again, "I don't see those people, they are also witchers." But they are all witchers with a gift of perception, and they are able to know if we are witchers or demons in disguise. Or just ordinary people who come to join in the fun. So they're also very good for guarding. ”

"You know so much!" Wang Ningyuan tilted his head to look at Fate.

When Fate heard this, his heart was very beautiful, and he wanted to say something more to show off. But one of the men in the black robe had already spoken: "Not only can I perceive, but I also hear well. Welcome, there will be time to chat later. Get in there and sign up. ”

Wang Ningyuan didn't expect the man in the black robe to speak quite casually, so he nodded to the man and walked inside.

After passing a road wider than the main road outside, they came to a large square. There were already a lot of young people standing in the square. Needless to say, they all came to the training camp. And a table at the entrance to the plaza was apparently used for registration.

The young people in the courtyard basically looked at Wang Ningyuan with strange eyes. Wang Ningyuan thought to himself, how could the demon hunter be so ignorant!

Behind the table sat two people, a man and a woman. The woman's face was expressionless, and the man looked a little tired of sitting in the sun and doing the check-in, with an irritated face.

Wang Ningyuan couldn't help but guess in his heart what they would use to register. Kraft paper with quills? He envisioned a lot of possibilities.

But when they really came closer, Wang Ningyuan found that he had guessed wrong. Because there was nothing in front of those two men. Only the woman had a plank in her hand.

"Name!" said the man, impatiently.

Fatt said excitedly, "I'm Fat-Smith." He is Wang Ningyuan, who came from the far east......"

"I know where he's from!" the woman interrupted Fate.

The woman behind the desk looked at the plank and said, "I've been identified, let's go in." ”

Wang Ningyuan found out that there were red words on the board!

This thing is very powerful!" Zhao Ning thought to himself

There were more and more people in the square, and some people in white robes began to appear on the high platform in the center of the square.

"Those who wear white robes are the ones who will teach us how to hunt magic. Demon hunters are divided into blue-robed, black-robed, white-robed, red-robed, sub-robed, and gold-robed. Only demon hunters above the white robe are qualified to take students. Fart still didn't forget to do the explanation work.

"Our witcher doesn't seem to have that. Wang Ningyuan seemed to be talking to himself.

Soon, no one came to the registration office. The square also gradually fell silent. Wang Ning heard the sound of the gate of the ancient castle closing from afar.

After a while, the white-bearded old man appeared on the high platform! Wang Ningyuan recognized him at a glance, it was definitely him, but this time he didn't ride his reindeer.

The old man with the white beard turned out to be the supreme leader of this training camp and the current owner of this ancient castle. Before the start of the training camp, he naturally had to go on stage to give an enthusiastic speech.

Wang Ningyuan also learned a lot about it through his speech.

The old man with the white beard was Nelson Peterson. His family is known as the strongest demon hunter family. At the same time, it is also known as the demon hunting family of heroes. Because more than 100 years ago, many demon hunters, led by the demon hunter hero Peter, prevented the demon invasion of the world.

In that battle, the Peterson family suffered heavy casualties. Thankfully, the surviving members of the Peterson family were able to recuperate after the battle. The family continues to carry on the glory and mission of the Hero Demon Hunter Family. And it is since then that the family has also had its own surname, Peterson's son - Peterson

And after that battle, the witchers of the world also realized the importance of solidarity and cooperation. That's why we started a demon hunting training camp every five years. Each time, in a different location, it is organized by multiple families.

And this time, it was the turn of a number of demon hunting families in England and other places to organize, led by the Petersen family.

The training camp lasts for half a year, and after the training, all the trainees will return to their families to continue their mission of protecting humans and hunting demons.

Each class has eight students, and is taught by an excellent witcher who has proven himself in a long battle. Of course, he must at least be a "white robe".

After Nelson's speech, the teachers in white robes began to recite the names one by one.

Wang Ningyuan and Fateh were a little nervous because they were worried that they would not be able to be placed in the same class. In particular, Fatt is a somewhat timid person, and it is like a lifesaver for him to make a friend before signing up. But he was a little too happy to be a little early, and he forgot that there was such a thing as a class.

He was anxiously stamping his feet when he saw his grandmother standing at the bottom of the platform talking to a teacher, who then glanced at him.

Fate's heart finally let go. Grandma knows herself best. And grandma's profession is not pig farming. She was a well-known blacksmith who specialized in the service of Petersenburg. This allowed her to get in and out of Petersenburg without any problems, and she was familiar with the people inside.

The shrewd Wang Ningyuan had already noticed all this and guessed the reason behind it. Sure enough, it was the teacher's turn to call out the name after a while, and as expected, Fate and Wang Ningyuan were in the same class. Neither of them paid attention to the names of several other people.

As long as Fate heard the names of himself and Wang Ningyuan, he was satisfied. And Wang Ningyuan was still appreciating the details of this ancient castle, and he didn't pay attention to it at all.

From the outside, this castle is surprisingly large. But it was only in the interior that I really realized how big it really was. Because it's literally a city inside.

After dinner, Wang Ningyuan and Fateh and the other classmates came to the small courtyard assigned to them, and it seemed that the demon hunting training was about to begin.
