Bai Yiquan shook his head to make his mind a little clearer before he stood up from the pool of blood.

"Why are you here?" Bai Yiquan asked, "Didn't you go to the royal capital with Mentor Herme?" ”

"If that's the case, do you think Lily dares to bring you in?" Thomas glanced at Bai Yiquan, "Lily Kraft is just a graduate without any position, how dare she transfer you without permission." Anyway, you are also the new [epic]. ”

"I don't understand. ”

"For thousands of years, [THIRD] has been committed to cultivating new students with excellent potential. But how should we train them? Is it okay to sit in the classroom and listen to the lectures and write just two sentences during the exam? Of course not, the cultivation of outstanding freshmen is often invisible. ”

Bai Yiquan understood a little: "Tutor Hermo asked Senior Sister Lily to bring me in?"

"Yes, he approved it personally. In order to get you the most exercise, he transferred us all under the guise of investigation, leaving you with Lily Kraft, who is the least good at fighting. In fact, you were already under our surveillance the moment you entered Azerol Academy, and this is your otherworldly training to test your reflexes in the face of unforeseen situations. ”

"So, how are my grades?" Bai Yiquan asked softly.

"If you hadn't fought back just now, but had let them subdue and wait for us to come to your rescue, then your score would have been the lowest in history, of course, by [epic] standards. Thomas smiled, "But now, you're passing." ”

Bai Yiquan felt that he should respond with a smile, but he couldn't laugh anyway, and the corners of his grinning mouth looked like a patient who had committed sheep epilepsy.

"But your final choice is very controversial. ”

"Why?"

"In a situation like that, you have two options. The first option is to kill him, and at this distance, a shot and a shot in the head could not be simpler. Thomas pointed to the knight who had been knocked unconscious, "This is also your choice, and it will kill him." ”

Bai Yiquan was silent for a while, and asked softly, "Is my choice wrong?"

"It depends on who you think you are. Because you have a second option, shoot him in the leg, hit him in the waist, make him temporarily incapacitated, and you can also cross him. "Both options work, but the first is undoubtedly optimal because there are no consequences." If you choose the second option, spare your enemy, can you guarantee that he will not retaliate? ”

"So I'm supposed to kill him?"

"No, I never said that. Of course, if it's the Presbyterians, I'm afraid I'm glad you chose the first way, because they've lived so long that they don't have any emotion anymore. Only decisiveness in killing can slightly stir up their already dormant blood. Thomas said lightly, "But you're different, Bai Yiquan." Take my words to me, and if you can, don't kill people for the rest of your life. ”

Bai Yiquan was stunned. Remembering that this was the first time Thomas had called his full name, he looked up and looked at Thomas blankly. This big boy from America has a pair of blue eyes, like the endless depths of the ocean.

"The weak should be ruthless, and the strong should be kind. Weak people who are too kind will only be bullied, while strong people who are too ruthless will only be feared. You Chinese pay attention to the golden mean, so when you are particularly prominent on one side, try to make the other weaker. Thomas whispered, "People with weaknesses can live longer." People who have no weaknesses are often tragic, and I don't want you to be the second one to be a god. ”

Bai Yiquan was even more confused. Don't want to be the second Wantianyou? What does that mean?

Thomas didn't mean to explain, and patted Bai Yiquan on the shoulder: "Okay, if you talk casually, you can talk about it after you return to the academy, and solve the current trouble first." ”

"That's right!" Bai Yiquan reacted at this time, and asked anxiously while looking around, "What about Senior Sister Lily? She was just taken away by that old witch, that Teresa!"

"I know she's been taken to Tiantan. Thomas nodded, "I tried to stop her, but I have to admit that I can't beat her very well." ”

The two had already walked out of the church as they spoke. Bai Yiquan was surprised to find that there were more than a dozen knights and wizards lying in the open space outside the church. Their armor and robes were in pieces, as if they had been cut by countless sharp blades. Flying sparks set fire to the surrounding trees, and the flames were rising little by little.

"This is, senior brother, you did it?"

"Nothing surprising. Thomas said lightly, "The advantage of the Divine Descendant over mortals is overwhelming, and when you can master your abilities, you can also do this." But that's not something we should be concerned about right now. ”

"Yes, yes, what about Sister Lily? And the old witch, you just said they went to Tiantan?"

"That's right, but there are old men and others guarding Tiantan, and Lily should be fine. Of course, if they can control the situation, after all, Jörmungård is about to wake up. ”

"Wake up soon?"

"Yes, we used to call it the serpent because it didn't have the power of Jörmungård. It's like the guy you killed that night, but he doesn't really deserve to be called Loki. But now that the serpent's power is growing rapidly, if we can't kill it before it becomes the real Jörmungard, we're in big trouble. You must know that its nickname can surround the serpent of the world. ”

"What should we do?"

"Don't worry, the situation is not out of our control now, otherwise Jörmungard would have come out and destroy the world long ago. Before that, I want you to know one more thing, about the old witch. ”

"Teresa Eric?" Bai Yiquan suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "By the way, Senior Sister Lily seems to know her secret, which is in the parchment book inside, let's go and see it now!"

Thomas grabbed him: "No, we already know. According to our investigation in the royal capital, the Eric family did not have a person named Teresa Eric at all. ”

"What?" Bai Yiquan was stunned, "Then who is she?"

"It's also from Eric's family, but she just changed her name because her original name was so famous. Thomas paused, then continued, "Her real life is Lina Eric. ”

"Lina Eric?" Bai Yiquan read the name softly, feeling a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before, until Thomas gave an answer.

"That's the heroine of "The Brave and the Great Demon King". Thomas whispered, "It's the girl who has been waiting for the brave to come home." ”
