Chapter 1084: The assessment is over
Pamirs.
Kayush Frontier Company.
In the barren snowfield, rows of recruits stood in a neat line, Lin Qiye stood in front of them, and behind him were the [Nightfall] team members who were also standing neatly.
Lin Qiye's gaze swept over their faces one by one.
Most of these recruits were dejected, their faces full of frustration and gloom, and only a few of them held their heads up and their eyes were as bright as stars.
This assessment system directly eliminated more than 400 recruits, according to the arrangement before the assessment, their qualifications to become night watchmen have been withdrawn by Lin Qiye, and those who stand upright, at a glance, are full of spirit, basically all of them have passed the seven-day assessment and successfully climbed Gonger Peak.
"I know you still have doubts about this assessment."
Lin Qiye slowly spoke, "Before starting the summary of this final assessment, does anyone remember that I asked you a question before the assessment began?" ”
Hearing this, the recruits present were all stunned, and soon someone reacted and said:
"Report!"
"Speak."
"Before the assessment began, you asked, 'If our own ability is not enough to take on the heavy responsibility of protecting Great Xia, then why do we still set foot on the battlefield?'"
Lin Qiye nodded slightly, his gaze swept over the recruits in front of him, "Then now, is there anyone who can answer this question?" ”
The recruits raised their heads slightly, and some of the recruits who had been eliminated to the border company opened their mouths, as if they wanted to say something, but their eyes showed a little confusion, and after a moment, they bowed their heads and fell silent.
Su Zhe stood among the eliminated recruits, and when he heard this question, his heart jumped slightly.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of Ke Changlin that day, he sat there, slapped the table, pointed to the border company, and took it for granted, "If the border is broken, what will happen to my family?" ”
In his mind, he thought of the border soldiers who had stood on the border line with him in heavy military uniforms and guns every day, eating cold meals and living on hard beds, but standing in the cold wind, supporting the entire country's border defense with their straight backbones.
In his mind, the shadow of the Great Xia Divine Shadow that had flocked to the Zhenguo Divine Monument not long ago appeared.
For some reason, in Su Zhe's eyes, the soldiers guarding the border pass and the Great Xia Divine Shadow who flocked to the Zhenguo Divine Monument like moths to the fire actually coincided little by little.
Su Zhe raised his head suddenly, and an unprecedented clarity appeared in his eyes!
"Report!"
Lin Qiye's eyes lit up, he turned his head to look at Su Zhe, and said calmly: "Speak." ”
He took a deep breath and shouted:
"I, I don't know if I'm right, but I think ...... If our own ability is not enough to take on the responsibility of protecting Great Xia, we will not go to the battlefield and be unworthy of the Night's Watch...... Then there is no one in this world who is worthy to be a night watchman! ”
Hearing this, the recruits present were stunned.
Lin Qiye's eyes narrowed slightly.
Seeing that the entire venue was silent, Su Zhe swallowed his saliva, plucked up the courage to continue:
"Guarding Great Xia is not a thing that can be measured by whether the ability is enough at all, not to mention just us, even if it is Instructor Lin, even if it is Commander Zuo, even if it is a god, we dare not say that we are absolutely capable of protecting this country!
Otherwise, the death and casualty rate of the night watchmen would not be so high, and the gods of Great Xia would not sacrifice themselves to transform into monuments in order to protect the people of Great Xia. ”
Su Zhe raised his hand and pointed to the border defense company behind him, "These people on the border are just ordinary people, but they can still carry guns and garrison the border of Great Xia, if a real disaster comes, they will not be able to stop it at all...... But they came anyway.
The weak have the way of guarding the weak, and the strong have the way of guarding the strong.
What is needed to protect Great Xia is not the absolute strength that is enough to do all this, but the determination to sacrifice oneself in front of tens of thousands of people when disaster strikes. ”
Su Zhe's words were loud, and after he finished speaking, the recruits who were standing beside him who were also eliminated into the border defense company, the confusion in their eyes gradually faded, and their eyes became brighter and brighter.
Lin Qiye's eyes showed a look of approval.
"Good."
His gaze fell on the many recruits, and he slowly spoke: "What Su Zhe said is very good.
Not all of them have extraordinary talents, and not all of them have the strength to be the Night's Watchman, nor are these ...... That's why I'm setting up an elimination mechanism for assessment.
People with talent and ability need to constantly climb the peak, challenge the limit, stand on a higher place, and protect all sentient beings.
People with relatively weak talents are not useless, and even to some extent, you are more important than those who are gifted, because you are the cornerstone of protecting Great Xia.
Now it seems that many of you have learned something from this training. ”
Lin Qiye said slowly, "I have already taught everything that should be taught, although the assessment has ended, I will give you another chance...... Everyone, close your eyes. ”
Hearing this order, many of the recruits present were stunned, and after a while, they closed their eyes obediently.
Lin Qiye's eyes swept over everyone, and he said calmly: "I am willing to become a night watchman and assume the duties of a night watchman from now on...... Hands. ”
The recruits in the audience raised their hands one after another, and at a glance, almost all the recruits raised their hands, and only a few of them hesitated for a moment and still did not raise their arms.
Lin Qiye lowered his head and crossed a few names on the list with a pen.
"Put it down, open your eyes." Lin Qiye carried the list behind him and continued, "Everyone pack up their things and prepare to return to Shangjing...... Those who have just raised their hands can begin to prepare for the oath-taking ceremony. ”
"But aren't we disqualified from being the Night's Watch?" One of the recruits asked cautiously.
"Temporary repossession does not mean complete deprivation." Lin Qiye smiled slightly, "Now, I'll give it back to you." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lin Qiye turned around and left, and everyone from the [Nightfall] team followed behind.
After a brief dead silence, the recruits behind them erupted in earth-shattering cheers.
"This assessment can be regarded as a successful conclusion." Cao Yuan glanced at the boiling recruits behind him and said with a smile, "I can finally go back...... I haven't even slept well in the past two days. ”
"After you go back, who will take the recruits to the oath-taking ceremony?"
"Needless to say, of course it's seven nights!"
"Hehe, I'll do it, master, this is a lot of wind!"
“……”
Six figures in crimson cloaks, laughing and laughing in the laughter of the recruits, walked into the distance.
