Chapter 40: Loyalty and Sincerity

"Mission failed?" said the old man, looking at the boy's fresh clothes and obviously washed hair, with a slight smile, "and coming back so cleanly, let me guess that you must have met a kind person." ”

The boy couldn't laugh, and there was still a hint of panic in his expression: "Adult, I didn't mean to, I originally wanted to stay"

"I know, I know. The old man was still smiling, lying his whole body on the Taishi chair, and closed his eyes leisurely, "Actually, I didn't recommend you to choose this task, it's too early for you." ”

"But," the boy thought for a moment and said with a hint of unwillingness, "The guardian of the third prince completed this task at the age of eight, and if I want to become the strongest guardian, I can't be worse than him."

"The guardian of the Three Princes has been trained in combat since he was a child, and his foundation is more solid than yours. The old man interrupted the boy, "But don't be discouraged, your talent is stronger than his, as long as you play steadily, you will definitely be able to surpass him." ”

"Alright, let's go back and rest. The old man didn't need to look at it to know the boy's expression, then chuckled and said, "It's better to rest quickly after a trip to the desert, after all, that place is too draining of human strength." ”

"I've rested, I can continue," the boy seemed to want to say something more, but the old man waved his hand and said, "Loyalty, a combination of work and rest is sometimes more effective than a blind effort." ”

That's right, the boy was Chung who returned from the Forgotten Desert, and after being taken out of the desert by Zark, he took Chung to a hotel in the dark, rested comfortably, and then told Chung not to blindly enter the Forgotten Desert again, and Zark left.

And because it was difficult for Tadaya to rest well in the desert, he rested for a morning, and rushed back to his current residence in the evening, and reported his failure to the old man.

A little confused, Chung left the old man's room.

After waiting for Zhong to close the door, the old man with a leisurely face lying on the Taishi chair suddenly retracted his smile, opened his eyes, and his voice was extremely flat: "How, how long has he lasted?"

"69 minutes, three minutes earlier than the previous one, but then I didn't choose to drop the package when I was about to lose consciousness. A figure suddenly appeared behind the old man, and said with a little respect, "But when I rescued him, he believed me completely, and was unsuspecting of me, and I don't think he can do it yet." ”

If he was here, he would be surprised to find that this figure was the Zarq who claimed to be an E-class mercenary he had met in the Forgotten Desert before.

However, the current Zark is completely different from the original free adventurer, wearing a black tights and a forehead guard with the word "Zhao" tattooed, it is obvious that he is not just a mercenary.

"It's hard for you to let the Royal Class A Executor play with the children and run a family. The old man's voice was full of tiredness, but it was still flat.

"All for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Zark laughed, and then suddenly said in a deep voice, "But your Excellency, you are too hard, is it really necessary to carry out that plan?"

"Now the power of the third prince is much stronger than that of His Royal Highness the newly born crown prince, although it is impossible for His Majesty to allow the crown prince and his brothers to kill each other, but we can't help but guard against it. The old man closed his eyes again, "Let me rest first, and let the two of them meet officially starting tomorrow, so it's convenient." ”

"Then, the subordinates retired first. It was a closed room, but after Zark finished speaking, his figure disappeared here.

"I hope it can go well, after all, the third prince was born to a side concubine, and only the mother of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can bring the greatest support to the country. Although the old man closed his eyes, he didn't want to sleep, "But the third prince is very good in terms of talent and morality, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't show the same talent."

The old man snorted softly, and then stopped thinking about it.

The next day.

It was a rainy day, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the rain was not heavy, but the rain brought a rare chill in this June.

"My lord, I'm today" Zhong knocked on the old man's door as usual, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and the paper was densely written.

That's the to-do list.

Training a Guardian is different from training a soldier and the like, as a Guardian you have to be extremely strong, strong enough to protect the children of the royal family in any danger.

Therefore, the training of guardians is very free, they choose their own tasks to complete, and after the tasks are completed, someone will summarize their gains and losses and make adjustments.

Guardians don't have to be proficient in every aspect, as long as they can be invincible in one aspect.

Remember, you are invincible, and there is no stronger existence in this world than you in this aspect!

That's what the trainer said when he received the task list, as it was the only requirement for a Guardian.

"Is it loyal? Come in. The old man's voice seemed much more energetic than last night, and it seemed that he should have finally been able to rest well through the rain.

Zhong pushed the door in, but unlike the scene he thought of as only one old man in the room, in addition to the old man, there was a boy who was shorter than himself who was fanning the old man with a fan.

The boy was very delicate, as if he were a girl, but he could still tell that he was a boy.

"Hehe, come here, I'll introduce you. The old man was still lying on the prince's chair, but after seeing Zhong open the door and come in, the old man also stood up and said with a smile, "He, like you, is also going to become the guardian of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the two of you will be both competitors and companions from now on, and you will do everything you can to protect the prince." ”

Are there more than one of them?Can there be more than one of them?Although he was a little puzzled, the eyes of the loyal looking at the boy were not friendly, after all, he was educated to be the strongest and most loyal guardian, and this boy must be the same as himself, so he is - opponent!

Just as Zhong thought so, the boy had already walked up to him and raised a big smile: "Hello, my name is Makoto. ”

Loyal?

"My name is Chung. Zhong's tone was slightly unkind, but he replied out of politeness.

"Hehe, Zhong, you are older than me, I will call you Brother Zhong in the future. Makoto smiled.

"Whatever you want. Zhong nodded, and then turned to the old man, "My lord, I took over the task of wind pressure survival today. ”

"Wind pressure survival?Coincidentally, Makoto also took this task, so let's go together. The old man said with a little surprise, "This task is actually twice the result with half the effort if two people can cooperate." ”

"Great, Brother Zhong, let's go," Makoto said happily as he turned to Zhong, but before he could finish speaking, he saw that Zhong had already walked away without looking back.

"Brother Zhong, wait a minute. Makoto hurriedly ran out and followed Tada's figure.

And in the room, the old man who was lying down again sighed and muttered, "Isn't it too cruel to do this, I can only wish the two of you a lot of blessings." ”

Wind pressure survival, as the name suggests, is a training that requires survival under strong wind pressure, and the wind pressure is adjusted by a wind magician, with a total of seven intensities, corresponding to the limits of each realm level.

The first strength is the physical limit of ordinary people, what is the limit? That is the maximum level of endurance.

But being able to bear it doesn't mean that there is no problem, and the kind of pain that the body is in a state of extreme endurance all the time is very tolerable.

However, in this case, it is also the easiest to break through in the physical realm, although there may be sequelae, but under the conditioning of the Royal Medical Department, this sequelae is not a big problem.

"But in addition to the oppression of wind pressure, there is also the training of mental power, that is to say-" The trainer looked at the two of them, who knew at a glance that it was the first time to do this task, and patiently explained, "Wind pressure survival, under this extreme wind pressure strength, you have to fight against the spirit beasts that are constantly attacking. ”

"Spirit beast?" Makoto asked, confused.

"It's normal for you not to know, the spirit beast is a rare magical beast unique to us here, and it will send out a ** spiritual attack, you may not have been exposed to the spiritual attack, but you are two people who entered, we will take a special method. The trainer said.

"Hmm, what's different?" Makoto continued to be a curious baby.

Zhong still had the same expression, although he wanted to enter alone, but the old man had told the two to enter better, so he was not prepared to disobey the old man.

"The attack of the spirit beast is single, and the interval is very short, if it is a person who enters, our trainers will pay attention to the whole process, because the spirit attack is easy to leave very serious sequelae on the spirit if you are not careful. The trainer explained, "But if two or more people enter, then we won't pay attention, because if you want to remove the spirit attack, you just need to touch the other party to attract the spirit beast's attack to yourself, if you see the other party is sluggish or something, just touch the other person, so that you can train for a longer time and achieve a better training purpose." ”

"And the attack of the spirit beast will dissipate in just a few minutes, so it's good for everyone to take it alternately. The trainer said and took out two small black round balls, "This is a space shifter, as long as you take it out, you can crush it with a little force under the wind pressure, and then you can leave the wind pressure array." ”

"Alright, that's all there is to say, let's go inside. The trainer smiled, looked at the two of them, opened a door behind him, and said.

Makoto glanced at Zhong, but saw the latter walk in without looking back, and Makoto hurriedly followed.

Once both of them had entered, the door slowly closed.
