Chapter 45: Assessment

The two of them were led by Fittes to visit the classrooms and cafeteria and where Depo would stay, and after expressing their gratitude for their understanding, Fittes hurried away again.

Looking at the figure of Fitters in the distance, Fude said to Dipo the next step: "In the future, this is the place where you live and live on the bright side." Let's take a look at where we work together? ”

"Hmm......" Dipo realized that that was the main reason why he had come early. According to the commission, Depo was ordered to follow Fude to the city guard in the center of the city.

With towering arrow towers, towering ramparts, patrols and guards coming and going without dead ends, and the neat and uniform shouts of killing from within, Silas's city guard base stands like a city within a city, standing in the heart of Silas, the largest city in the empire, and is responsible for the safety of the entire city.

After Fude showed his identification badge and the guards reported it, the two were quickly brought into the barracks and met with the leader of the City Guard, Commander Efal.

More than thirty years old, straight posture, not angry and arrogant look. With the exception of a pair of fiery red gloves on his hands, everything sent a message to Debo that the man was a typical soldier of fortitude and determination. And at this moment, he was also watching the two people who walked into his office.

"Stand down." Efar retreated, and the rest of the office stood up and raised his hand, a high-level enchantment isolated the three of them.

"I'm not going to beat around the bush, you're the newcomer to Debo's Nightwings?" Speaking of which, Efar showed a purple raptor wing pendant that was very similar to Forde, but a closer look would reveal that there was a slight difference between the two, and the wings of the pendant were fuller and denser, and the color was darker.

This is a testament to the higher authority within the organization than Diberford, and the two of them have nothing to hide in front of him.

"Yes!" All this was already clear to himself in the morning, so Debo answered the question without any hesitation.

"yes, I see." Efar nodded, for him, the question just now was both a confirmation of Dipo and a test for him, and he looked Dipo up and down again, and finally took out a key from the drawer and inserted it into an inconspicuous hole in the wall, and a secret door slowly opened, revealing a deep and deep passageway.

Forde walked in without hesitation, and Dipo followed without asking much if he saw it. After the two entered, the door closed again, and everything resumed.

The stone that makes up the passage seems to be very special, keeping it dry and ventilated, and at the same time emitting a faint fluorescence, so that you don't need a torch to see the road along the way.

But as he walked, Dipo was surprised to find that the journey was so long, and unlike the illusion of the unbearable feeling caused by the darkness in the prison, the passage was really very long, and the time really passed for a long time.

Following Fude's Dipo on the trek, Dipo gradually felt a little tired, and his breath began to gasp sharply.

"Take a break." Fude sensed Dipo's situation and found a place for Dipo to rest, while explaining: "There is an extremely special portal in our base, which requires identity verification, and you have not obtained an official identity so you can't use it, so you can only take this road and go there through the one-way portal in the designated place." And as the only passage, just in case, the stone here is defensive, although it is not activated now, it will inadvertently consume the physical strength of the people who pass here, unless the strength reaches a certain level. And you don't have that strength yet, so you're going to get tired. But according to tradition, this is also an assessment for newcomers...... I was so tired back then. ”

"That's right......" Dipo suddenly realized that he couldn't help but re-examine the stones, what would happen if the defense was really activated before the defense was activated? And that's just the process of newcomer reporting, so it's done so strictly, what will the real "Nightwings" look like inside? Dipo thought about it like this, and all kinds of reveries popped into his mind.

"Alright, it's almost there, there's still a long way to go...... Let's move on......" After a while, seeing that Dibo's breath gradually stabilized, Fude urged the two to restart the trip.

Moving forward, exhausting, resting, and starting again, the process was repeated dozens of times, and Dipo felt that his body was exhausted to the extreme, and his concept of time was gradually blurred, and he could no longer tell how long he had been in this passage......

Finally, the end of the passage appeared in front of the two of them, and the boulder was in the way of the way that there was no way to continue, and Fude took out the pendant and pressed it on the boulder.

"Identification - 3rd Guard Verde. Certification completed. An ethereal female voice came from nowhere, and a rumbling sound was heard, and the boulder gradually moved away.

Breaking away the thatch that stood in the way of the intersection and seeing the light of day, Dipo found that it was a moonlit and starry night outside, and he and Fude seemed to have entered a forest, surrounded by silence except for the occasional midnight birdsong. I walked in the passage for a whole day.

"Whoosh......" Just when Dipo thought that the journey was over and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a strong wind blew in his face, and subconsciously Dibo instinctively fell sideways and dodged.

The stone behind the "bell" cracked, and a feathered arrow was stuck in it. If this speed and strength hadn't broken through in the arena, Dipo would have been shot through the chest with the fatigue he was in now.

Just as Dipo was suspicious and ready to find the attacker and fight back, he found that his temples, throat, heart, and several vital points around his spine were all held up by several sharp blades, and several black shadows fell silently beside him without knowing when, firmly controlling himself who was half-kneeling on the ground and had not yet risen.

Di Bo's brain buzzed with a cold sweat, although it was night, but after being attacked, he had instantly raised 120,000 points of vigilance, and these people did not notice the slightest in the whole process from approaching to subduing themselves, as if they appeared out of thin air like ghosts. The current situation is that the other party wants to take his own life, which is a matter of raising his hand.

"My own people!" Fude, who was walking in front, was not attacked in any way, he hurriedly turned around and raised his pendant to shout at the attackers, "I am Fude of the Third Guard, and he is the new Debo who has been instructed by Lord Regent to join the team. Let him go. ”

"Yes......" The shadows agreed, letting go of Dibo.

It wasn't until he was released that Dipo gradually saw the outlines of these dark shadows, all of them wearing night cloaks and hoods, and unlike ordinary night clothes, the outside of these clothes was covered with neat feather decorations, making these people look like big birds.

But before Dipo could take a closer look, the men disappeared again. Everything was as usual except for the cracked stone, as if nothing had happened just now.

"This is the guardian of this passage, and the strength is roughly equal to that of Donat in the examination room. It's also your final assessment......" Fude said as he stepped forward to pull up the frightened Dipo and shrugged helplessly: "That's how I came over...... You can't dodge that blow, or if I warned you beforehand that you had a defense...... You're going to be judged a failure. It's not fatal, but it's not a full member. ”

"Is that ......" Dipo, who had palpitations, inevitably complained a little in his heart, but he was relieved after listening to Fude's words. (End of Chapter 45)
