Chapter 11 Reporter Carol
The reporters of the major newspapers in the kingdom are also a group of powerful people, and whenever a major event occurs, they can always be the first to smell the smell and arrive at the scene as soon as possible. Although the railway guards have a deterrent effect on civilians, they are helpless and headaches for journalists who can be criticized with the use of a pen. At this time, several newspaper reporters had already arrived at the location of the train, and one of the large newspapers actually drove the power car over.
This powered car is no ordinary tool, it is the top mechanics who attach the fuel engine to some small vehicles and make it work by human operation. This kind of power car is expensive to make, and it is not at all affordable for ordinary people, only like some high-ranking officials and aristocrats, business tycoons can have it. Now even the big newspapers are equipped with such vehicles, which shows how much money has been spent to grab the headlines.
However, the incident did cause quite a stir, and at this point Cheluwhite felt like a bouquet of flowers, for as soon as he got off the train, many microphones surrounded him like bees, some of which were eager to reach into his throat, so that he could be the first to know what was going on in his vocal cords.
"Mr. White, how many casualties are there so far?"
"Mr. White, I heard that the thief's name is Cassidy, is it the notorious thief from a few years ago?"
"Mr. White, is there some big man who is escorting valuables and preventing ordinary civilians from getting into the car, as rumored to be?"
"Mr. White, can you tell me what it is?"
"Mr. White, it is said that the thieves were completely unresisted at first, what do you think of the presence of thieves in the railway guard?"
"Mr. White, according to the reaction of the passengers, it was a group of knights who finally repelled the thieves, can it be understood that the Knights' Association can now maintain order in place of the escort team?"
“......”
White was already covered with sweat on his forehead, and he would rather fight a hundred Cassitian than face the same problems as these shells. Unfortunately, the guards were still clearing the rockfall in front of the train, so he had to carefully parry it while begging his men to clear the obstacle so that he could get out of the way.
Only Raj and Bell and others were left in the carriage, and the father and son of the doctor had been taken away by the escort team to protect them. These would-be knights were a little anxious at this time, they originally planned to arrive at River City around the evening of the next day, but now it seemed that they would be delayed until late the next night, and if the other team members took the opportunity to reach the Baicao Forest first, it would be extremely embarrassing.
"Either way, I still want to thank you for repelling Cassidy and saving his life. By the way, who are you?" Raj asked.
"The would-be knight of the Leiby Academy, but it's been delayed long enough!" Fred replied absentmindedly.
"Real...... I'm really sorry that I don't have enough strength under you, otherwise I wouldn't have delayed your mission. But since I am also a knight, I believe that I will have the opportunity to repay you!" Raj said apologetically, clasping his hands into fists.
"Hey, forget it, it's not that you are not strong, and no one would have thought that you would encounter the poison of your companions. Bell patted Raj on the shoulder and said in relief.
"Aha! The heroes who saved everyone are here! Take a picture, Mike!"
"Okay, Carol!"
Just as everyone was expecting the train to continue moving quickly, a short, short-haired woman and a man with a heavy camera mount suddenly rushed up to the carriage.
"Hello! I'm Carol from Focus Newspaper, and this is my assistant Mike!" When everyone was stunned, the reporter introduced himself generously, compared to assistant Mike, who was much shy, he waved to everyone a little embarrassed, but the flash in his hand did not stop at all.
"You ...... Got out from under the train?" asked Gary, glaring.
"Yes, fortunately, the guards didn't notice the bottom of the train, so we took the opportunity to climb over, and for the sake of first-hand information, we can go up to heaven and earth!" Carol looked proud.
The crowd was speechless, but as the eyes of civilians, these reporters were also quite dutiful.
"Okay, time is pressing, the escort should be done cleaning up the scene soon, I'll ask you two questions, and then take a few more pictures, okay?" Carol didn't seem to be asking for everyone's opinion, as the pen and paper were already in hand.
The would-be knights have no objections, and it is not impossible to cooperate with the work of reporters, not to mention the publication of photos of knights with meritorious service in the newspapers and periodicals, which can also increase the prestige of the academy and even the knights' association. So Carol asked, "What exactly are you, and is the other party the famous thief Cassidy?"
"We are the would-be knights of the Leiby Academy, and the thief is indeed the great thief Cassidy. ”
"What kind of precious item is he going to snatch? I heard what other passengers said was red...... Star's?"
"He ......"
"Actually, we're only responsible for dealing with thieves, and we don't have to ask what they are. Seeing that the students were about to answer, Raj hurriedly replied first.
The students immediately understood that this crimson star was originally involved in various forces, and they exposed it to reporters casually, and once they tracked it down, these people would not be able to get out of it.
"Sister Carol, you seem to have asked two questions!" said Bell.
Carol paused for a moment, then patted her head: "Oh, what a mistake! Well, since you don't want to say more, I can't force it, the escort team is here, and I'll see you again in the future!" The female reporter was also simply, seeing that everyone didn't want to reveal more, she said hello and pulled Mike back with her.
"Carol, it's hard to see these people, and you're leaving?" Mike said with some reluctance.
"Don't worry, Mike, I've got great materials!" Carol patted her chest, looking confident.
Watching the two seemingly brainless reporters leave, everyone also regarded it as a small episode, but at this time, Bell's heart was shocked, and he wanted to stop the two but had already run away.
Hey, it's too late to help you, you're going to be out of luck, Trump!
The railway convoy was very efficient, and quickly cleared the boulders that had been rolled down by the previous landslide. Relieved as if he had met a savior, Cheluwhite fled with Raj and his escort when the train started again. However, those reporters also filled their bellies like hungry tigers, and they all left the scene with smiles on their faces.
Due to such an incident, the previous battle also consumed a lot of physical strength, after all, the knight qualification test has just been carried out in the first round, and everyone has their own thoughts, no longer chatting, and they have recovered their strength.
The journey was calm, and it was late at night when the train arrived in Riverville.
River City, the provincial capital of Lake Province, although it is the provincial capital, because it is an inland city, the trade is not very developed, but it has a unique original style, retains many historical resources, the most famous is the northwest grass forest, there are many kinds of medicinal herbs, everything, and it is for this reason that the medical skills of River City are very developed, almost everyone can have a little healing.
At this time, it was the middle of the night, and the tattered train slowly drove into the station, like an old man who was about to die, holding his last breath to finish the journey.
"Get off the bus, get all down! This is the terminal!" a burly man who looked like a repairman complained loudly as he instructed the passengers, "It's going to take days to fix this mess!" One of the passengers was still asleep when he was kicked by the repairman.
"How can he be more fierce than Cassidy?" said Garay, frowning.
"Do you have to smile when you get up in the middle of the night to fix the train?" Fred glanced at him.
"The people here are very tough, and many times they will start fighting if they don't agree with each other. Amu, who grew up nearby, explained.
"Shall we stand here and discuss the issue of folk customs, or shall we continue on our way?" Tucker couldn't help but speak.
"Let's go now?According to Amu, there will be more demonic beasts at night, right?Isn't there another day?" Bell winked at Amu.
"Tori is giving us three days, but don't forget that there are only six groups of people who can advance to the next round!" Trump said immediately.
"What's more, we have two groups of people here, and if we get to five groups, we'll have to eliminate five people too!" Alice added.
As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward, and then Bell said: "Everyone, the academy can give us three days, which shows that they know all kinds of situations that may occur, that is to say, the choices of other groups of people should also encounter very tricky situations, I think no one has been able to reach the Hundred Grass Forest so quickly." ”
"Not necessarily, many people in the academy have not yet shown their true skills!" Fred retorted.
"I think Bell is right! At this time, there are many magical beasts around the Hundred Grass Forest, and we have just experienced the battle, so it is more appropriate to have enough energy to go. By the way, Alice, how are you recovering?" asked Garay.
"It should be almost...... Alice unleashed a small healing spell on the crowd.
"That's a quick recovery!" Dona couldn't help but admire Alice's meta.
"Thank you, fortunately, I had time to fall asleep before, and the recovery speed was indeed much faster than usual. Alice smiled.
"Bell!" Fred interrupted them, "our group is ready, so we should head to the Hundred Grass Forest now!"
"Perfect?" Bell asked, narrowing his eyes, "since you're ready, let's go first, we are two groups of people, we haven't fully recovered our strength, and we don't want to face the difficult conditions of the night." ”
"To become a knight, you must have the ability to take the initiative to deal with all kinds of difficult circumstances, right?" Zell said.
"A knight is a fool who chooses the most effective way to achieve his goals in all circumstances, not a fool who knows the danger!" Bell retorted.
"Who are you calling stupid?!" Zell was enraged, drawing his sword and pointing at Bell, "It's okay, I'll knock you out here!"
"I can't ask for it!" Without waiting for Bell to respond, Garay drew his broad-bladed sword and pointed at Zell as well, "Although I haven't fully recovered, it's more than enough to deal with you!"
The rest of the people obviously didn't expect this sudden fight, but they still reacted one after another, and the two groups of people who had been working together were about to turn against each other at this time.
