Hours later.

Captain Hannah, who was holding a bow and arrow, saw Xavier and Caroline come out of the captain's barracks with a tired look on their faces, as if they had experienced some strenuous exercise.

This made her smile slightly, when she was studying the Dharma Seal, she had also experienced this kind of moment to be able to have today's proficiency, so she understood how they felt at the moment.

To compare it to a metaphor, it's like a dead house who has never run before is caught running until he can't run, which is probably this kind of fatigue.

And Xavier's mental power also shows this.

[Mental Power: 100/1300]

Excluding the hundred mental powers that maintain the basic functioning of the brain, Xavier really has nothing left now, and can only recover it by resting.

However, after seeing Miss Hannah, he couldn't help but talk about his achievements today, and cheered up for Caroline to 'perform' with him.

First there was a series of magical drives, followed by Xavier's use of mental power, and the fire elemental became an object in the shape of a sphere after being focused.

The so-called first-level fireball technique!

Although it sounds very powerful, in fact, it is not powerful at all, and it can probably be burned on the skin for a while, and it is absolutely impossible to kill.

However, even such a fireball has allowed Xavier and Caroline to practice for a long time to achieve an instantaneous effect, and as mentioned before, it is actually difficult for the two to be able to make relevant movements together tacitly.

It's like having your left and right hands write different words at the same time, you might as well give it a try, it can be achieved, but it takes a long time to work behind the scenes, and the magic between the two is even more difficult than this.

So after the demonstration, Xavier first thanked Captain Hannah for saving his life last time, and then asked Caroline to find Isabella, and he walked back quickly, falling asleep on his familiar bed.

For the first time, he felt that sleep was such a precious thing.

~~~~~~

A few days later.

Early in the morning, Xavier received an order from the baron to arrive at his tent at seven o'clock.

This was the norm in the past, and usually this kind of thing happened on behalf of the captain to discuss something with him and Miss Hannah, but today it seems to be different, because as soon as he pushed open the wooden door, he saw Captain Hannah sitting in front of him.

However, in addition to this girl and the captain, there was actually a strange man sitting, and it seems that today's meeting is not so simple.

As soon as he saw Xavier, the strange man hurriedly smiled: "Introduce myself, I am the captain of the First Cavalry Brigade of the Second Imperial Legion, Bruce Dorink Cobb. ”

"At the same time, he is also a knight and a baron of the Empire. The captain next to him added.

Hearing this series of salutations, Xavier certainly understood that the man in front of him was a big man, and hurriedly gave him a standard military salute respectfully: "Hello, Your Excellency Cobb." ”

"Hello, Xavier. ”

After the exchange of pleasantries, Xavier and Miss Hannah sat down across from the man named Bruce, with a small table in between, while the captain sat beside him, smiling at how it all went.

"I have come here mainly to talk about your achievements this time, and the corresponding rewards. Bruce looked at the two of them with deep eyes and said, "Let's talk about you first, Xavier." ”

"First of all, you offered a golden strategy, so that the barbarians who came to attack suffered a major blow, and at the same time, you can also use other soldiers defending the city as an example, and your name will be seen in the strategy of defending the city in the future, which is the first merit. ”

Wait! Xavier suddenly thought of something, and teaching his experience to other soldiers as an example, wouldn't it mean that Xavier's name would be associated with Jintang in the future?

Thinking of this, his heart was suddenly full of remorse, this is probably similar to 'waiting for a public toilet'!

Miss Hannah next to her almost laughed out loud when she heard this, but after all, she was professionally trained, so she only changed her expression on her face, and she didn't really make a sound.

Bruce, who was sitting in front of them, pretended not to see all this, and continued to himself:

"Secondly, you, Hannah, and Skyler work together to defeat the enemy cavalry captain Sauron and crush the barbarian's strong man, which is the second achievement. ”

"In the end, you have killed at least dozens of enemies on the wall, and you have made a remarkable contribution to the protection of the village of Reston, crushing the enemy's plot to destroy us within three hours, which is the third achievement. ”

"With all that said, the Empire has now decided to give you two choices as a reward. ”

"First, he was transferred to become the captain of the guard at the south gate of the capital. ”

"Second, qualify for the triennial knights' conference. ”

"You don't have to choose right away, you can think about it slowly. ”

When he heard these two choices, Xavier was at a loss, because he didn't know the corresponding value of the two, so he had to turn his head to look at the captain, hoping that he could give some advice.

And the captain seemed to have expected this scene, and said with a smile: "The captain of the guard at the south gate of the capital is a very good high-paying position, at least one hundred crowns a month, Bruce, do you say yes?"

"It's one hundred and fifteen crowns, and the salary is increased. Bruce corrected.

One hundred and fifteen crowns! According to the price of goods in this era, it is almost equal to the monthly salary of 100,000 yuan in the previous life...... I don't need money, but I have to say it's a tempting position, Xavier thought to himself.

"Moreover, it is also a relatively leisurely position, far from the war, and if you are a person without great ambitions, I would advise you to do it. The captain said quietly.

"Because when you hold this position, you basically have no chance to make meritorious contributions, you can only stay there for seniority and promotion, if you continue like this, you will not be able to get any knighthood in your life, such a life, Xavier, are you willing?"

If this was Xavier in his previous life, he would definitely reply 'I do', but at this moment, he has enough ability to fight for more, and such an ordinary life is not what he hopes for now, so he quickly understood what the captain meant, and responded:

"I don't want to, but what should I do if I want to become an Imperial Knight like you, Captain?"

Hearing this answer, the captain couldn't help but nod with satisfaction: "The first way is to make enough military achievements, just like this Bruce in front of you, your current military achievements are actually quite a lot, but they are still not enough for you to become a knight." ”

"As for the second option, which I recommend the most, is to participate in the triennial knight conference and get a good enough ranking in it, so that you can be directly knighted, just like I did back then!"

"And reward two, it can give you such an opportunity to participate in the knights' conference that you should not have attended, such an attempt, are you willing to gamble?"

When Xavier heard this, he couldn't help but think of an ancient saying.

Big husband, you can't eat Jiuding meat when you are alive, and you should cook Jiuding when you die!

Being an ordinary captain of the South Gate guards, can he make his swordsmanship stronger?

And if he can't become a knight and can't get a knighthood, then what's the point!

Thinking of this, he immediately responded passionately:

"I do!"
