Chapter 4: Talent
Although there are scattered leaves flying in the wind, the small courtyard is generally clean. It's probably bigger than a basketball court.
After the students consciously stood in a row, a teacher in a white robe with a hood over his head walked in and said, "My name is Adonis. You don't have to introduce yourself, because many people are probably going to leave or die. The room behind you is for you to live in, and tomorrow there will be a talent awakening trial. ”
Throwing off this sentence, the white-robed teacher left. Didn't explain anything more.
Fortunately, there is a "jack of all trades" by Wang Ningyuan's side. Before Wang Ningyuan could ask, Fate said with interest: "Every demon hunter has his own talent, and only when the talent is truly awakened can he become a demon hunter. If there is no awakening, it means that the person does not have the potential to become a witcher. Not only will they not be able to continue their studies at the Demon Hunting Training Camp, but they may even be expelled from the clan. ”
Jack-of-all-trades said so vigorously that he forgot that he might be driven home, and didn't notice that the other six people had gathered around.
Several people listened to Fate's explanation, and almost everyone had worry on their faces, except for two people. One is Wang Ningyuan, because some of his talents have awakened. He had mastered the talent for divine language at the elementary level, which allowed him to understand and speak any language.
The other is Carl Peterson. He is a young man from the Peterson family, and because he is curious about the demon hunters from the east, he specially arranged to be in a class with Wang Ningyuan early.
Some of his talents have also awakened. It is the same "gift of holy language" as Nelson. It's just that his level of awakening is still relatively limited, and he can only communicate with people nearby.
And this Carl had also noticed Wang Ningyuan's calm expression, and Wang Ningyuan naturally found the confident young man next to him.
At this time, another young man couldn't help but ask, "Seeing that you know so much, then you must also know what way to awaken our talent tomorrow, right?"
When Fate was asked, he seemed to suddenly remember, and he couldn't help but shudder.
Everyone can already see from his expression that tomorrow is definitely not a good thing.
Fate struggled to calm himself down before he said, "A year before the training camp started, they began to find a way to capture alive all the demons and monsters that could be captured alive. It's for us. ”
"How?" several people asked at the same time.
Fatt took a deep breath and said, "They're going to put us in a cell with a demon......"
Everyone understands that the training camp is first and foremost about bringing out the potential of young witchers through this extreme way.
"I'd heard a lot about the camp before I came, but I hadn't heard of it!" said a young man, a little excited.
At this time, Carl chuckled quietly and said, "The training method is different in every training camp. No amount of legend you've heard from before is useless. But this fat man who strikes iron knows a lot. Because his fat grandmother who struck iron relied on working for our family to make a living. That's why I heard a lot of details. Did your fat grandma tell you that you don't look like a good fit for training camp? haha......"
Fate's eyes widened in surprise, he couldn't believe that Karl would say that.
But when Karl said this, he walked away. Apparently he didn't intend to go into the room in the courtyard.
After Carl left, Fat said to Wang Ningyuan with some trembling: "How can this be! Although I have hardly seen him before. But I have long heard that Carl is a graceful, humble, kind man. ”
"Don't take it personally, everything you hear can't be true. Especially when it comes to someone's character. Wang Ningyuan patted Fate's shoulder and said.
At this time, several other people also gathered around and asked this and that.
The first question to be asked was a girl who looked nervous. She opened her mouth and asked, "Are we going to die?"
Fateh rolled his eyes and thought for a moment and said, "I don't know about this. But I think they'll protect us. But let's be honest, my cousin died in the last training camp five years ago. That's why my grandmother told me that I had to make friends and take care of each other. After speaking, he unconsciously glanced at Wang Ningyuan.
Wang Ningyuan smiled and said, "What Fate said is right, we should all be friends. We'll all get through safely, won't we? My name is Wang Ningyuan, and I am from the Far East. ”
Everyone also realized that they hadn't introduced themselves yet. So they started to introduce themselves.
"Hi, I'm Lake Highey. A shrewd-looking young man was the first to speak.
"I'm Selena Myers. ”
"Todd Robert"
"Jones Witt"
"Bella White"
Everyone introduced themselves and Fatt officially introduced himself at the end: "I'm Fart Smith." My family lives nearby. My grandmother was one of the blacksmiths who specialized in making weapons for the Peterson family. So I know something that other people don't know. ”
Wang Ningyuan was very happy in his heart, because except for the guy who left just now, the rest of the people seemed to be very easy to get along with.
At this time, Todd also asked about Karl, and he asked Fate, "What happened to that man just now?"
Fateh shook his head and said, "He is the grandson of Nelson, the owner of this castle. I thought he was a good guy. But it looks like I'm going to get to know him again. No wonder one of the village blacksmiths said that nobles are not good people!"
Hearing this, Jones said, "Don't say that! Since you want to be a friend, I won't hide it from you." I am also a nobleman, and a royal nobleman. ”
Everyone opened their mouths in surprise. Except, of course, Wang Ningyuan. He has no feeling for such a thing as Western royalty, nor does he have the kind of subconscious worship and awe that others have for royalty.
His knowledge of European royalty is also limited to those American dramas that he watched in his previous life.
"How could you ......," Fat was so shocked that he could barely speak.
Jones smiled faintly and said, "Yes, I didn't go to their training camp for the royal family. I also specifically asked them not to reveal my identity. Apart from you, only Nelson and Crolia know who I am in all of Petersonburg. Croria was the one who registered. ”
"It's getting dark, let's go see what's going on inside the house. Pack up and rest early, tomorrow is sure to be a tough battle. Serena said.
"yes, yes. Everyone agreed.
Seven young people came to the house together, and everyone was quite satisfied with the living environment. Of course, except for Wang Ningyuan. The erect and uneven wooden bed was a real test for him. Mixed sex is even more new to him.
A large room, eight individual plank beds, vacated one. That's because Carl has gone back to his own home. He wasn't going to live here.
This night, the quietness in the ancient castle surprised Wang Ningyuan. It looks like all activity is forbidden here at night. Otherwise, the great castle would never be so quiet.
There was nothing to do all night, everyone seemed to sleep soundly, only Wang Ningyuan, who felt uncomfortable no matter how he turned over, was still half asleep.
It was during this half-asleep that he suddenly heard the rolling of wooden carts, followed by footsteps.
Wang Ningyuan immediately looked up vigilantly and saw that it was the white-robed Adonis.
As soon as Adonis saw that Wang Ningyuan had woken up, he said, "Wake them all up." There is a weapons cart parked in the courtyard, and I am waiting for you there. ”
Adonis walked out the door, and everyone else sat up. It turned out that none of them had fully slept soundly, and Adonis had woken them all up when he spoke.
Everyone got dressed and came outside to see a wooden cart with a weapon rack parked in the yard. It was a really big car with all kinds of weapons. It was not yet dawn, but many torches had been lit on the walls, and the courtyard was very bright.
Adonis spoke again, "Pick a weapon that you think is suitable. I'll let the werewolves into this yard later. You will fight it. Those who survive and unlock their talents can continue their studies. I have the power to kill that werewolf, but I won't do that. Because that's your job, and my job is just to make sure it doesn't leave this yard. ”
"Didn't you say you'd put us in a cell?" asked Todd.
"I don't think that's the crux of the problem, is it?" Mr. Wang said.
"Yes, the important thing is that we work together to defeat a werewolf. Serena said.
Everyone was discussing how to choose weapons and how to fight. Fat, however, nervously asked Adonis: "What if I survive, but my talent is not awakened?"
Adonis said with a blank face: "Those who have not awakened their talents this time will undergo a second trial. But you'd better not go to the second trial. Take advantage of the opportunity in front of you. ”
From his tone, everyone already understood that the second trial must be more dangerous.
The seven of them nodded to each other, each hoping to be able to awaken their talents in this battle with the werewolves.
