"Dad, mother, the child went out first!"
A young man dressed in clothes sewn from animal skins kowtowed respectfully to the small wooden table in front of him, then stood up, patted the dust on his clothes, turned and trotted out of the bamboo house. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The strange thing is that on this table, there is no spiritual seat, only an egg-sized ball, and when the young man just turned around, a faint black pattern suddenly appeared on the ball.
Taking a deep breath of the fresh morning air, the boy stretched hard, and on the avenue not far in front of the boy, teenagers and girls about his age converged towards the entrance of the village.
"Hua Yu, get up so early. Behind the boy, a familiar voice suddenly sounded, and the boy turned his head, and a slightly bloated little fat man trotted all the way to him.
"How can you get up early, today is the day of the selection of soldiers in the principality of our village, as long as you can be selected and become a reserve soldier, you will have the opportunity to become a knight in the future. Hua Yu smiled and said, "What, Yue Yue, why did you, the little young master, go to join in the fun today?"
"Hehe, even if you can't make the selection, just look at the excitement. Yue Yue reached out and took out a steamed potato that was still steaming with a hint of heat from her pocket, "Here, your breakfast." ”
"Thank you, when I am selected to become a soldier, I will invite you back!" Hua Yu took a bite on the potato and patted Yue Yue the shoulder.
Hua Yu and the two walked on the dusty village road, and the number of people on the road gradually increased, most of them peers accompanied by their parents. However, when they saw Hua Yu and Yue Yue, these people all walked away into the distance with a hint of disgust.
"By the way, Hua Yu, I heard that the examiner this time is a big man from the principality, I don't know if it's a knight, or rather, is it possible that it is a star knight?" Yue Yue suddenly asked.
"Star Knight?" Hua Yu flicked Yue Yue's forehead: "How could that kind of big man come to a small village near the sea like ours? I remember the last time the soldiers were selected, he was still a reserve knight, right?"
"That's true, but I wanted to see what the legendary knight was like. Yue Yue said: "I remember, the most powerful person in our principality seems to be a moon knight." ”
In the world where Hua Yu is located, since childhood, they can exercise their bodies and absorb the power of the ancestors left by the creation god when they created the world, and there are some people who can stand out and become soldiers with a higher status, of course, these people who can get ahead are undoubtedly stronger than ordinary people, and above the soldiers, there are some more powerful beings to command these countless soldiers, knights.
It is said that these strong people who can cultivate have all been blessed by Yasha, the founding ancestor of this world, and have a strength far beyond ordinary people. In addition to knights, there are also Yuan Li Divisions. Unlike knights, they do not absorb the power of the Ancestors into their bodies, but instead reassemble their structures to produce a variety of magic with different energy structures.
While the ancestor Yasha gave these powerful men strength, they also took on the corresponding responsibility, that is, to protect the common people.
In addition to humans, there are countless monsters that have existed since the dawn of mankind on this continent of Asha. It is said that these monsters were created by the demon king Dylan who appeared with Asha. Although the demon king Dylan has been killed by Yasha, these monsters cannot be killed endlessly. It's as if as many monsters can be reborn as many as they kill.
Hua Yu and the two were talking, and before they knew it, they came to the assembly square at the entrance of the village, where it was already crowded, and almost hundreds of people had gathered here.
It is said that it is an assembly square, but in fact it is a wide glade, and there is a high ground in the square that protrudes from the ground for a distance, and at this moment, on the high ground, there are already three people standing.
"Hua Yu, this time the examiner has come. Yue Yue poked Hua Yu with her elbow: "I feel that those two people should be pre-selected knights, I feel that they are not a few years older than us." ”
Hua Yu looked up, and sure enough, beside the somewhat rickety village chief wearing an earthy yellow robe, there stood two young men with beautiful faces and bright silver armor, a man and a woman, with a sword symbolizing the status of a knight pinned to their waists, and the same bright silver helmet was held in the crook of their arms.
"Even if it's a reserve knight, it's very powerful. Have you forgotten that the reserve knight who came last time was still an uncle in his thirties? Hua Yu looked at the armor on the two knights with some envy, compared to them, the animal skin clothes on his body were simply tattered.
As time passed, more and more villagers came to the square, and behind Hua Yu and them, there was also a long queue, and soon, there were no more people joining the queue in the distance.
"Everyone, please be quiet!" the village chief cleared his throat, "Today, it's time for our village's five-year soldier selection, and those who can stand out in the selection will become the pre-selected soldiers of our Principality of Hamp!"
Hearing the words of the village chief, the crowd in the square couldn't help but whisper, but most of them were parents encouraging their children.
"Let me introduce the two examiners this time, this is a third-order knight from the Principality of Hamp, Lord Knorr!"
When the village chief introduced the girl next to him, his face was a little flushed. After all, the difference in identity between the two is very different.
"The Guiyu Army, that's one of the two ace armies of the Principality of Hamp. Yue Yue sighed: "Being able to reach the rank of ninth-order knight at such a young age, no wonder it is the captain of a large team." ”
Hua Yu looked at the girl, although her appearance was not good, but there was a trace of majesty and heroism all over her body.
"Don't talk nonsense, Nuoer and I are the examiners of this selection, and the assessment content of the selection is decided by the two of us. The girl's gaze swept over the faces of the excited teenagers below: "Those who are less than thirteen years old can quit, you have not yet reached the minimum number of years of reserve soldiers in the principality!"
Becoming a reserve soldier at the age of thirteen sounds a bit ridiculous, but after the body has been strengthened and trained by the power of the ancestors, even if it is a teenager, the physical strength can already keep up with the needs of the army.
Hearing Tianqi's words, there was a commotion in the square below, and some children reluctantly came out of the crowd and retreated to the back of the square. Even if you can't participate in the audition, it's good to see it.
Tian Qi's right hand rested on the hilt of the sword, and said coldly: "According to the laws of the principality, anyone who joins the army before the age of thirteen will be dealt with as a crime of fraud, and at the same time, the army commander will also be punished. I know that among you people, there are still people who are lucky, but our examiners in charge of soldier selection have a kind of prop to test bone age, and if there is anyone who wants to pass the test in a fool's way, I will kill it directly!"
As soon as the words fell, Tian Qi pulled out the saber with a force of his arm, and a faint blue halo reflected on the blade of the sword under the sunlight.
Where have these rural children seen this kind of battle, and at that moment, some of the children who had not quit before turned pale and hurriedly left the team, and even more were so frightened that they fell to the ground.
Soon, twenty or so teenagers left the group and watched from afar at the back of the square.
"Very good, the rest should be people who meet the age of reserve soldiers, the first content of today's assessment is to run thirty laps around the outer area of this assembly square, and if you can't hold on, you will be out. Tianqi said lightly.
As soon as the words fell, there was a gasp in the crowd.
Although the assembly square of the village is not very large, the outer area is almost four or five hundred meters in one circle, and tens of thousands of meters in thirty circles, which is undoubtedly a huge challenge for these teenagers who are generally in their early fifteens.
"If you feel that you can't run, you can quit directly, and no one will force you. The knight named Noel beside Tianqi said coldly, and there was a trace of impatience in his eyes, if he hadn't accompanied Captain Tianqi, he wouldn't have come to this kind of place where birds don't.
The teenagers and girls in the audience looked at each other, but none of them chose to quit at this time, not only did they not want to give up this opportunity, but if they quit here, they would definitely become the laughing stock of other peers in the future.
"In one minute, all the contestants who participated in the selection will gather on the left side of the square!" Tianqi's voice sounded again, and suddenly, the whole square became a pot of porridge, and these young people who came to participate in the selection all hurriedly ran to the left, and one of them inevitably knocked the other down.
Hua Yu quickly shuttled through the gaps of the flashing people, and he was in the woods all the year round, and his dexterity was definitely not comparable to other peers.
Hunting in the forest, it is inevitable to encounter some dangerous beasts, at this time, if you don't run as fast as them, then the final outcome is to become the food of the monster.
On the other hand, Yue Yue, his somewhat bloated body has simply become the biggest burden, if he is allowed to squeeze in from the sea of people in the queue, then he still has some advantages, but now, he seems to have become a live target for being hit by someone.
Although there was some confusion, the contestants were assembled in one minute.
Tianqi looked at these gathered players, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and immediately, a somewhat cold voice sounded in the square: "Begin!"
[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, it must be better!]
