Chapter 321: [A Man Like a Mystery!]

Later, after Konstantin was selected as the new paladin, the Order also held a simple but solemn ceremony. The Bishop personally handed over a reconstructed sword to Konstantin, who was received by the Pope in a private audience. Everyone is proud and envious...... I was very impressed that on the second day of the ceremony, Constantine did not come to the Order, he became a paladin, he would not come to the Order, but directly served the Pope. The next day at the training ground of the Knights, everyone was summoned. In order to welcome the arrival of a new knight cadet. At that time, we thought it was strange that the Knights usually only select new members every few years, and the Knights maintain a certain number of members, and do not select too many students, but it is clear that that year is not the usual arrival of new students.

And what makes us feel even more strange is ...... That time, there was only a new student, and it was brought by the two cardinals themselves. Usually such a solemn ceremony, a few cardinals come forward to bring a new cadet, and there is only one possibility - that is, this new cadet is the son of a paladin who has just died, and in order to inherit his father's glory, he has been trained to become a knight. Out of respect for the dead paladins, the Cardinal will come forward. But that was clearly not the case that time. The new member who came that time was not a purebred white man. Or rather, he looked like an Asian at all! And because I liked Western culture since I was a child, and I studied Chinese with the Eastern martial arts teacher in the church, I overheard him say a word of Chinese. ”

He suddenly glanced at Xiao Lei: "What do you guess he said?"

"I can guess it. Little Ray rolled his eyes.

What he said at the time was: It seems that this is a bright world. It's not much better than the dark world. Ye Buqun shook his head and said, "I'm the only one who heard this." I heard it because I was trying to learn Chinese at the time. Afterward...... The Bishop announced that he wished to evaluate the man. His name is MM DuPont. The cardinal said that the Pope meant that he wanted him to enter the Order and become an honorable knight. ”

Speaking out at the time, almost all the Knights' Instructors rejected it. The Bishop of the Order of Knights was very opposed and demanded that he go to His Majesty the Pope immediately. As you may know, even if the Pope orders it, you can't just stuff people into the Order. Because for thousands of years, the Order was a completely independent system for anyone. If you want to enter the Order, you must pass a rigorous selection and assessment. Otherwise, even the Pope can order whomever the Knights to be granted. Even the descendants of the paladins cannot directly enter the Knights, and if they fail the assessment, they will be eliminated. Everyone was against it at the time, and that Dupont was just standing next to him, his expression calm. There was no fluctuation at all, but I could feel that his gaze was a little disdainful, even ...... Sneer. ”

He suddenly glanced at Xiao Lei and said with a smile: "To be honest, when I saw you for the first time, I really felt that the way you laughed looked very much like that guy." You probably should be the same kind of people. ”

"And then?" Xiao Lei anxiously wanted to know what was going on.

And then ...... The cardinal who brought him with him said. The Pope also wanted to interfere in the internal affairs of the Order, but only as a recommender, and the Order could evaluate and select this person on its own. Just like any other student. You can take the test, and only after passing all aspects can you get the qualification of a member of the Order. ”

"And then, evaluate him?"

Ye Buqun recalled for a while and said with a wry smile: "Now I can say it fairly...... It seems that the instructors of the Order are not willing to let a person of other races enter the Order, and deliberately raise the standard by almost dozens of times...... I must say that I had already passed the examination a few years earlier and became a cadet of knighthood in the Order. But if I had been asked to take that kind of assessment again, even if my strength at that time had increased tenfold, I would never have been able to pass. ”

"The first test is willpower. Originally, it was going to be a two-part of courage and perseverance, but the guy passed it quickly. The Knights' assessment is to invite a magician to perform hallucinatory magic on him, make him feel fear, and conjure up scenes of fear in his mind. I remember that when I was first assessed, I was hypnotized, as if I saw more than a dozen huge monster snakes attacking me around me, and then biting me......" Ye Buqun sighed: "I held on for five minutes. Only then did he faint. I have to tell you, the hallucinations are very realistic, including the sensation of pain! When I was tested, I could clearly feel my body being bitten by a snake, the sharp pain that pierced my heart! The pain was very intense and real!"

"I don't know what the willpower test of Fidupon was at that time. But I remember that in the beginning, it was very difficult to hypnotize him. The magician in the Order couldn't hypnotize him at all! The magician at the beginning, instead of being able to hypnotize him, was devoured by the magic himself, fell into the hallucinations he had arranged, and ran away crazy on the spot. Later, it is said that it took a week of sleep before waking up. Later, the two magicians in the knights were changed, but there was no way. If, according to the convention, his willpower was strong enough to resist the illusionary magic of the magician, then there was no need for him to take another test. However, because of the selfishness of the Knights, they insisted on the assessment, and finally replaced a magician of the highest level of the Knights. And the cardinal who brought him with him also pulled him aside and said a few words, which successfully hypnotized him. I believe that it should be him who voluntarily gave up the resistance of willpower. Otherwise, I suspect that the high-ranking magician would not have been able to hypnotize him. But then...... Almost everybody was shocked! Because instead of crying, he wasn't afraid. He laughed very happily, as if he hadn't seen some horror in the environment, and as if he didn't feel any pain at all...... It's like watching some funny movie!

At that time, the whole training ground was silent, and everyone looked at him as if they were monsters. He was the only one on the field with his eyes closed. A strong laugh. In the end, the bishop of the Knights couldn't stand it anymore and signaled that the magician could stop. And then, without controversy, he passed that test. And he actually said another word......"

"What did he say?"

He said to the magician...... Thank you, I've never had such a pleasant dream. Ye Buqun's expression was a little helpless.

"And then?" said Xiao Lei, who was silent for a few seconds, asked again.

"Then it's time for the basic physical assessment. Generally speaking, for new Selectors, the Knights' Order's low-ranking knights will conduct basic tests on Selectors such as agility, strength, speed, etc. If there is no foundation in martial arts, a physical examination is conducted. And for those who are selected from a knightly family. It was to have a low-ranking knight fight him...... Of course, it's not a real fight, but it's like a master teaching a disciple to feed tricks. Or the lower knight draws the sword, and the selector defends. Or the other way around. As long as the knight approves the talent and all aspects of the selection of the candidate, it is considered to be passed. Surprisingly, the guy very firmly refused the medical examination, and the Cardinal, too, said that he did not have to undergo a physical examination. Just ask a knight to come down and test him. If he can pass the knight's test. Then a physical examination is also necessary.

As a result, in the shock of the results of the willpower assessment, the knights' seekers did some tricks again, and it was not a low-level knight who was assessed on him...... It's a very strong knight!"

"Ask ...... According to the tone of your voice, he must have passed again. How strong is the knight you said was to assess his strength?"

"I don't know. Ye Buqun smiled bitterly: "I haven't fought with him." But he's really strong, there's no doubt about it!"

"Why?" said Lei frowned.

And it was not Ye Buqun who answered him, but an old voice behind him who said loudly: "Because I can prove it!"

As he spoke, Konstantin walked out of the room. In the night, his expression was solemn and his eyes were a little gloomy.

"You're out too?" Ye Buqun smiled.

"You're fighting so noisily outside. How can I sleep?" Konstantin seemed a little distracted, sat next to the two of them, and glanced at Xiao Lei: "Why did you suddenly come and ask about that Fidubon??"

"I'll tell you later, but now can you tell him about the assessment that day?"

"I can't say because I wasn't there that day. Konstantin replied a little surprising to Ray.

But then he changed his words: "I'm not here, but I can tell you something you want to know." ”

He suddenly reached out and undid his shirt, revealing a two-finger-wide wound on the left side of his chest! It was obviously stabbed by a sword! The wound seemed to be many years old, but it was obviously very badly injured back then, so it still looks shocking now!

"At that time, the knight who was evaluated by MM Dupont was a high-ranking knight, and just a month before he was assessed, I had a competition with him, which was to compete for the qualification of the paladin, and he and I were the last two candidates! I remember very clearly that I fought very hard against him, and the scar on my chest was given to me by him! Fortunately, it was a few centimeters off, otherwise, if I had been stabbed directly in the heart, I would have died! Later, I fought with him for three hours before I barely defeated him. But I was lucky because he was a little bit injured in the last match and never recovered, so I was able to win against him. To be fair, if he had been in good condition, I might not have won. ”

Xiao Lei took a deep breath and looked carefully at the scar on Konstantin's chest: "You just won that knight to become a paladin?"

"Yes!"

"Oh my God. Xiao Lei smiled bitterly: "Then doesn't that mean, that knight." In fact, it also has a strength close to that of a paladin?! The Knights actually use a person with the strength of a paladin to assess a new student? Cheating is too outrageous, right?"

"In order to maintain the bloodline of the Order, use some means. It's also normal. Ye Buqun interjected: "It's strange that the knight was down at that time, and the cardinal didn't object. I think about it now, at that time, he knew the strength of the knight, but he didn't object, there may be two reasons. First, he personally did not want to see a man of another race enter the Order. It was only because of the Pope's order that he came to fill the scene. So deliberately acquiesced in the Knights' cheating. The second is that he and Ben know the strength of that MM DuPont. Don't be afraid!"

"And then?"

And then ...... DuPont chose to attack, leaving the knight to defend. And then. Under the gaze of dozens of pairs of eyes around him, he made a move...... I must say that I didn't even see his movements clearly when I saw a figure shake as if he had been standing there at all...... However, the knight didn't even have time to react...... He had already made a cut in his face with his sword!

Everyone was stunned. Because even though everyone thought that he might have some strength, he injured the knight with one move. And it was stabbed in the face, it was simply a kind of humiliation! As a result, the knight was furious, and in a fit of rage, he completely ignored any assessment and other things! The two of them actually fought with real knives and guns in the field!

The two cardinals were also stunned, as if they wanted to stop it, but the two of them fought fiercely and refused to separate at all...... It was only about five minutes old before the winner was decided!, the knight was furious. He had already used his true strength, and he actually used the 'Holy Light Cross Sword'! At that time, there was an amazement, and everyone thought that DuPont was going to die...... And then...... Then ......"

"And then?" asked Lei immediately.

And then ...... That knight was killed by him!" Ye Buqun stared at Xiao Lei's eyes. He smiled a little bitterly: "You know, he only used one sword, and one sword pierced the knight's throat! Moreover, his sword pierced the knight's Holy Light Cross Slash head-on, and then passed through his sword qi, and directly hit the throat with a sword! It was as fast as light!" Taking a breath, he added, "He used the land, which is the action I used just now...... The simplest, most basic, is just a 'thrust' action in swordsmanship. ”

Xiao Lei finally changed color: "You said he ...... It only took him a few minutes to kill an opponent of paladin-level strength with a single sword?"

Konstantin suddenly smiled bitterly on the side: "I fought with that knight for more than two hours before I barely won. That DuPont, it only took a few minutes. ”

Ye Buqun said: "Later, the scene was chaotic, several knights jumped off the field at the same time, and they all went to rescue the knight, but it was too late, and some people attacked him in anger, and no one could resist his sword...... He knocked down several knights in a matter of moments, and then jumped to the side of the cardinal. At this time, the cardinal finally calmed down from the shock, opened his mouth and shouted orders, taking control of the scene.

Subsequently, we, the young cadets, were taken out of the training ground. When I left, it was still chaotic. It seems that the cardinal wants to take that Dupont with him. But a group of knights surrounded them and wouldn't let them go...... It's almost a mutiny! Because I'm gone, I didn't see what happened with my own eyes...... Afterwards, I learned from other sources that the Dupont was still alive and not left behind by the Knights. And what happened after that day, there are various versions, and there are several different versions...... Some say that it was the Cardinal who ordered to stop the Knights from taking action and forcibly took the Dupont. Others said...... Hey...... It was said that Dupont single-handedly defeated a dozen high-ranking knights of the Knights, and then walked away! Of course, I am not sure what the truth of the matter is. However, this incident became a great disgrace to the Order, and after that everyone was forbidden to mention the man's name...... And that day. ”

Xiao Lei was stunned for a few seconds, and couldn't help but say loudly: "This ...... This is too bizarre, isn't it? How can a young boy of a few years old have the ability to easily kill an opponent with the strength of a paladin? And in a fair and head-to-head fight! Can you also defeat several knights at once? Are your knights all paper-mΓ’chΓ©?"

Ye Buqun's face was a little ugly: "Who said he was only a few years old?? I was a full ten years old back then, and he looked ...... Although there is a difference in the development time between Easterners and Westerners, he seems to be at least four or five years older than me!!"

Xiao Lei really changed color at this time: "What did you say, bigger than you?"

Ye Buqun nodded: "I am thirty-five years old this Chinese New Year's Eve, then, that DuPont should be about forty years old now." ”

"Impossible!!" Xiao Lei immediately stood up and said suspiciously, "Aren't we talking about the same person?"

He immediately took out a piece of paper from his bosom, and it was from Lei Roar that he got a copy of Simon's information with a photo on it.

"Look at it, it's not him. ”

Ye Buqun only glanced at it, and immediately affirmed: "It's him." He always has a very weird smile on the corner of his mouth, and ...... I will never forget this kind of look in his eyes. ”
