Early in the morning, when the sky was just dawning, Russell was awakened by a sharp knock on the door.

Russell rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked, "Who is it? Come and knock on the door so early!"

Buna's hearty voice came from outside the door, "Russell, it's me, are you still sleeping at such a late hour, a knight has to be tense at all times, and he can't snooze every day!"

Russell yawned and walked to the door to open them, looked at the smiling face in front of him and said angrily: "My Lord Buna Knight, I haven't joined the group of Guardian Knights yet, and I played with Betty who couldn't sleep last night, and now I'm sleepy, and now I'm sleepy, you still come to toss me so early, do you think everyone is as energetic as you?"

Bunner knew that Russell was angry that he had woken him up from his dream, but Buna ignored the trivial matter and walked into Russell's room on his own, and sat down on Russell's bed.

Buna observed the room where Russell was, and sighed with interest: "Bishop Vane really values you very much, the room he arranged for you is for VIPs, and I lived in an ordinary servant room when I participated in the assessment!"

Russell crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, looking impatient, and said, "What did you come here so early to tell me something?

"That's right, that's what I thought!"

Buna casually continued with Russell's teasing, and suddenly he noticed Russell's gloomy face, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "Oh, can I apologize to you for my rude behavior? Actually, I really don't want to come over and disturb your rest, but this is Bishop Vane himself who called me over to wake you up, he is my superior, and I can't resist his order." ”

Russell was already completely sleepy by Bunner's toss at this time, and he immediately noticed an important part of Bunner's words,

"Did you say that Bishop Vane told you to come and call me?

Buna spread his hands and replied, "I don't know what the Bishop is going to say to you, but he wants me to bring you to his office to talk about it!"

When Russell heard this, he had no choice but to get dressed in a hurry, and after washing up, he hurried with Buna to the location of Bishop Vene's office.

After a while, the two finally arrived at Bishop Vane's office, and this time the experienced Russell did not knock on the door, but walked directly to the front, and sure enough, the door in front of him opened.

As soon as Russell entered the office, he found Bishop Vane eating breakfast with a piece of white bread and warm milk.

As soon as the bishop saw Russell, he pointed to the same food on the small table next to him and said, "This is breakfast for you, eat it while the food is still hot!"

Russell sat down at the small table with Buna when he heard this, picked up bread and began to fill his hungry stomach.

Bishop Vane looked at Russell with a smile and said, "Your Excellency Russell, I'm very sorry to call you out of the room so early, there's a reason.

The content of your participation in the selection of the Guardian Knight has been decided, and I called you here to tell you the relevant news, but the content of this assessment is very dangerous.

Now I'll give you a chance to repent, and you can give up this knight selection!"

"I'm not afraid of the dangers that may arise in the assessment, and I have decided to participate in the examination of the Guardian Knight!"

Before Bishop Vane could nod and speak, Buna, who was watching the two talking, interjected and said, "This is the first assessment that Bishop Vane has set for you, if you retreat from the battle, then you will never have the opportunity to participate in the assessment of the Guardian Knight in the future!"

Bishop Vane turned his head and glared at him, and Buna hurriedly said no more, it seemed that his desire to help Russell still could not match the majesty of Bishop Vane in his mind.

"Very good!" Bishop Vane turned his head and continued to look at Russell and said, "Your assessment is very simple, there is a group of magician apprentices who have recently conducted evil experiments in Dinah City, and they have caused a lot of innocent casualties around them, and I just want to clean them up.

Therefore, Lord Russell, your assessment is to annihilate all these magician apprentices, and get back any magic books on them, if the number of books can match, then you can pass the knight's assessment!"

"Okay, I got it!"

Russell nodded in agreement, but he hesitated a little, because he had only heard of magicians and had never seen them with his own eyes, and he was still a little apprehensive about unknown enemies.

Bishop Vane saw Russell's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Russell, there are often many dangers in the selection process of the church, especially after becoming a knight apologists, if such an enemy will make you hesitate, then I still advise you to withdraw from the assessment as soon as possible!"

Russell knew that although Bishop Vane's words were not very good, what he said was indeed the right thing, after all, the duty of the knight cathar is to protect the personnel of the church, and it must coexist with danger.

Russell replied with a firm expression: "Bishop Vane, I will do my best to achieve this assessment, and please provide me with detailed information about this magician apprentice." ”

Bishop Vane was pleased with Russell's answer, and he immediately skilfully took out a map from the mountain of papers, and placed it in Russell's hand.

"This is the specific address of this group of magician apprentices, this is the slum east of Dinah City, remember that they are all very cunning people, you must be careful not to reveal your location at will, otherwise you will suffer from the joint attack of the magician apprentices!"

Russell picked up the map in his hand and looked at it, and couldn't help but feel that this assessment was not a simple matter, the buildings depicted on it were intricate, the road traffic jams, and it was a very chaotic location!

This kind of place is the best place for the wicked to fish in troubled waters, they can use the chaotic buildings of the slums to cleverly hide their tracks, Russell can't help but admire the church's information channels, they can find such a remote and complex hiding place.

Bishop Vane looked at Russell and said: "In that case, then you can set off after a meeting! The church will only provide you with a war horse to travel, after all, you have your own equipment and weapons, and the church's equipment will not be better than yours, so you still use the weapons you have in your hand to better pass this assessment!"

Russell then said goodbye to Bishop Vane and walked straight out the door, unexpectedly Buna followed Russell out.

"Why did you come out with me?" asked Russell, puzzled.

Seeing Russell's puzzled eyes, Buna hurriedly explained: "I am your invigilator this time, I am responsible for supervising the whole process of your participation in the assessment, if you encounter irreparable danger, I will come out to help you immediately, what kind of eyes are you looking at me? The church will not sit idly by and watch you die in the assessment!"

Seeing this, Russell could only admit the fact that Buna was his proctor, it seems that the church still knows the pros and cons of the matter, if the death rate of the aristocratic youth who participated in the church examination is too high, then there must be many nobles who will not send their children to the church anymore.

Although the Church of the Goddess of Cereals is strong, if it loses the support of the nobles, then the power of the church cannot be maintained for too long, and only by supporting each other can the nobles and the church be maintained for a long time.

Russell immediately returned to his room, equipped the armor and weapons he had purchased before, Russell pulled out the Heroic Relic and observed the changes on its sword body, and sure enough, the rust on the sword body basically fell off, which made Russell can't help but look forward to it, if he can get a purple stone again, will the Relic of Heroic Legacy appear in a new form?

Later, Russell walked outside the door of the temple, and the harsh sunlight outside made Russell, who had been in the temple for a long time, feel a little dazzling.

After adapting to it, Russell turned over and rode on the war horse provided by the church, and began to leave the territory of the church, Russell also noticed Buner's trace, and Buner secretly followed him, but after leaving the church, Russell estimated that he probably couldn't detect Buna's detailed location!

Russell knew from Bishop Vane that the time limit for this assessment was about one day, and it was still morning, so Russell was not in a hurry, but rode his war horse and walked slowly around Dinah City.

Since Russell came to this city, he has not seriously visited this beautiful city, and now it is finally this opportunity again, Russell must take this opportunity to travel well before he can stop!

Russell browsed the life of the common people and found that the quality of life of the people in Dinah City was indeed very good, the pedestrians wore very gorgeous clothes, and the roadside shops were also very lively, the city was full of life!

During the unwitting tour, Russell rode to the slums west of the city, and like all cities, even the capital of the Heka Kingdom was surrounded by precarious people, so there was the largest slum in the kingdom.

On the only road in the same slum stood two guards, listlessly with spears on the side of the road, seemingly dissatisfied with the presence of the guard.

However, when the guards saw Russell coming, they immediately cheered up, stood up straight with their spears, and greeted Russell intently.

In the eyes of the guards, Russell should be the noble guardian knight lord of the church, because his outfit is not something that an ordinary soldier can afford, and then look at the war horse wearing the horse that the church can have, who is this not a guardian knight?

Russell also noticed the change in the guards, so he smiled at the two guards and rode into the slums.

Leaving only the two flattered guards standing in place, the knight lord smiled at them, was it to promote them?

Russell could have known that his smile would cause such a tumultuous reaction among the guards, and now his mind was all drawn to this slum, which was completely different from the outside.

It really lives up to the name of the townspeople, and the ground is littered with feces and urine, as well as sewage that flows like a small river.

The road became so narrow that the carriage could not pass through it at all, and even Russell had some difficulty walking here on horseback.

The buildings on the side of the road are in tatters, and there are no buildings more than two stories on the side of the road, and looking at the crumbling houses, Russell can't help but feel worried for those who live in them.

The people on the side of the road were not skinny, but they were not much better, and everyone was dressed with vegetables and a rancid smell on their bodies.

And when they saw a knight like Russell, who would not come to the slums at all, they hid far away as if they had seen something terrible.

Russell was a little helpless, he took out the map provided by the bishop and looked at it, but the road here was too complicated, even if he had a map, it would be useless, but Russell wanted to find someone to ask for directions, but seeing their appearance, he couldn't wait to get away from him.

Just when Russell was at a loss, a swarthy boy slipped over from the corner, he touched the war horse under Russell's seat with wide eyes, and asked, "This knight, are you looking for someone to ask for directions?"
