Chapter 20: Temporary Team Formation [Asking for Recommendation]
On the other side, the two people who were still heading towards the test center were moving very fast, because the large army had already marched towards the second test center. There wasn't much danger along the way, but when she occasionally rested, Naan was still on guard.
When she arrived at the test center, Na'an didn't have a starry sky card on her. And Jack already has 15 on him. After stamping them one by one, Jack plans to rest for a while before hitting the road. Although Na'an doesn't have a Star Card on her, she can be promoted to Grade 6 as long as she gets two complete and fully stamped Star Cards before the final test center.
According to the academy's regulations, martial arts are strictly prohibited within 500 meters of the mage tower at the test center, which has become the most ideal rest area for everyone. No one is worried about being robbed of their star cards. Although I don't worry about being robbed, there are still people who occasionally get their Star Cards stolen by those assassins who can be invisible.
Since this is the evening of the second day after the start of the test, the number of people at the first test center is now very scarce.
"Are you going to continue on your way?" Na'an saw that Jack was not ready to set up camp, and that he was surrounded by classmates who had already set up tents and had already fallen asleep.
"Is there a problem?" said Jack, taking advantage of someone else's campfire, eating jerky and taking a short break. Hearing Na'an's question, he didn't think there was anything wrong with rushing now.
"Shouldn't you consider teaming up with someone to go to the next test center? After all, a lone magician is the prey in the eyes of many people! And the further you go down, the more vulnerable you become. Na An kindly prompted. But although it was a kind reminder, it also meant that she wanted to team up with this magician. Although he was only in the first grade, he could clearly feel that his strength was much stronger than many of the many mages in the sixth year. Whether it's public or private, there's no harm in making friends with him!
"For me, it's not the most important thing whether I can pass the exam, I think it's a trip back to nature. Jack said half-jokingly. The woman in front of her, although she saved her with compassion. Of course, some of them have something to do with her being very beautiful, but Jack doesn't plan to mix with people of this level if he teams up. After all, now I don't have any combat experience other than suppressing with DPS. Jack hopes that he will start from the most basic experience and accumulate his actual combat experience step by step!
Naan didn't know if he didn't want to team up with her, or if she didn't understand what she meant. She was a little embarrassed, even though she had been a student for 5 years. But after so many years of fighting alone, she has never fought side by side with others. She has never taken the initiative to ask anyone to form a team together, and this is the first time in her life. In the past, countless people took the initiative to ask her.
Na'an, who was a little embarrassed for a while, had to eat dried meat and drink water silently, preparing to find a corner to rest for a night, and set off alone early tomorrow morning!
However, just when the two of them were a little cold, a short-haired man with a shield on his back and a cloth coat walked over. "We have an archer here, and a priest, do you want toβ" However, before he could finish his words, he suddenly saw the armband on Naan's arm. After a sharp pause, the short-haired man said again: "When I didn't say it, I'm sorry!" Just kidding, how could a fifth-year assassin team up with three first-year rookies. Originally, he had just seen that the two of them were dressed in shabby and old clothes, and he had just noticed the armband of the first year of the magician. It's just that I never expected that the woman was actually an assassin and was in the fifth grade.
Originally, after Jack changed Naan's clothes, she still packed her gear and the armbands she had to carry. Although she was wearing a modern jacket with old and torn leather armor, there were all kinds of mismatches, but she still wore what belonged to her.
The visitor was a little embarrassed and was about to leave, but Jack spoke: "I'm with you!"
"Jack Sparrow!" Jack offered to hold out his hand and give his name. I don't plan to mention my Chinese name in this world again, but Jack Sparrow, the male number one in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie, and Captain Jack's name are probably going to be named Yang in this world. Not only did Jack use Captain Jack's name, but he also approached him in style, just a perfect smoky makeup and a sexy mustache.
"My name is Jim Ronnie, and I'm a civilian warrior, and the archer over there in a daze is Paul Quinn, he rarely communicates with people, he prefers to talk to animals. And the guy who was shaving was Javier Bardem, the priest of the Light. He shaved several times a day, and according to his exact words, the god of light did not like bearded men. Jim Ronnie introduced himself as he joked about his teammates.
All three are first-year rookies, and their linen clothes represent that they are commoners. Those aristocratic lords are now fashionable to wear silk. Ever since Jack brought silk into the world, it has been a luxury in aristocratic circles, like porcelain.
"I'm welcome too, welcome? Ann didn't shake Jim's hand. Instead, he stood beside Jack and looked at him and said flatly.
A 5th grade assassin, not to mention the King's Guard of various countries, the Royal Knights, etc. Speaking of the mercenary guild, which has more contact with civilians, her annual salary is enough for the three members of Jim's team to spend a lifetime. At this point, let alone not shaking hands, just standing up was enough to give Jim face.
Jim went from being embarrassed to being shocked now, oh my God! Will the sun rise in the west tomorrow? A fifth-year assassin actually wants to take the initiative to team up with him, this is to say it, I guess everyone will think that he is bragging! And this is not the most worthy of bragging X, the people of the Double-Bladed Family! This is enough to brag about for a lifetime, for a civilian.
"It's hard for her to take a fancy to herself...", Jim was kind of like that, a pretty girl looked at him. He even had the name of the child born to that girl in his head. Fantasy is fantasy, after all, Jim has also heard of the Double Blade family, which is the most famous assassin family in human history. The woman of the double-bladed family, let alone look down on herself. Even if you fall in love, you can only walk around, and you can only have one life, which is not enough for yourself.
After an embarrassment, Jim nodded like garlic!
While beckoning his teammates to get to know each other, Jim takes the initiative to find something to warm up. After all, it is still necessary to fight together in the future, and to get to know each other somehow. It's just that Jim didn't dare to pick up trouble to find Naan, he only dared to ask Jack!
"Did you get into a fight on the road?" asked Jack.
Hearing Jack ask about the battle, Pastor Javier said, "Don't mention it, the three of us were robbed less than 2 kilometers from this test center. The other party is 7, 8 3rd graders. There are many strong people, so we can only obediently hand over our star card. β
In order not to be beaten, in order not to make useless resistance. They did the right thing, and although they had a fellow priest, the priest was not omnipotent. Some injuries can be fatal without medication.
"How many starry sky cards have you gained?" said Jim, naturally, you guys. It's only natural that an upperclass brings a junior. If you are a human being, you need to spend money, which is a very common thing in the academy. It's just that this magician doesn't look like a rich man in his dress. This is somewhat unexpected!
"Not a few!" Jack didn't tell the truth, and importantly, he didn't want his new teammates to know that he had robbed Naan of her card.
Everyone chatted without a word, and the archer kept whispering to his eagle except to say hello when they met.
"It's his life, but this eagle is really good and has helped us a lot. Once we went on an adventure in the desert and almost died of thirst because we couldn't find a water source, and this eagle took the water we found! Jim saw that Ann and Jack had been looking at the eagle, and that the archer, as the master, had not communicated with anyone. It doesn't matter if you're familiar with it, but after all, if you just got acquainted, it will make people feel very rude!
"My friend used to have one, and then the eagle died trying to protect him. Since then, my friend has been sticking a few eagle feathers on his shoulders in honor of his good friend. "Naan understands the archer. She didn't show the slightest impatience or displeasure.
And the archer, who had been silent, although he did not communicate with everyone, he could still hear what Naan said.
"Your friend is lucky!" said the archer, a rare expression.
After chatting for a while, Jack had planned to travel at night, but at this time he had to find a place to sleep.
After getting his sleeping bag right, he fell asleep deeply.
Na'an looked at this broad-hearted magician speechlessly! If you don't let a duel here, the end of the duelist will be disqualification from the exam, or even expulsion in serious cases. But it doesn't say that stealing is not allowed.
With Na'an's technique, when the day dawns, it is estimated that Jack will be able to steal only **!
Naan became more and more curious about him, and thinking back to the acquaintance of the two, he almost didn't find himself following at all. If he hadn't carelessly stepped on a dead branch, how would he have found out.
With his strength, he doesn't look like a rookie in any way. However, his actual combat experience, as well as his jungle survival experience, are like a 'first' rookie.
Even if he was pampered and never moved in the wild, he always grew up in the court or in the manor of a noble. But how could he not have fought with others in his cultivation, even if he was the crown prince, he had to communicate with others in order to improve his strength.
His way of fighting that day was obviously to defend with a powerful magic shield first, and then desperately throw high-level spells with great damage at fixed points. There is no skill at all, and it is completely suppressed by great magic!
In order to protect him from being stolen, Naan gently slept next to Jack after he fell asleep.
