Chapter 395: The Initiation Trial
Gondor looked very confident, although Lena didn't say anything, but she also put on a confident posture, they were originally relic contractors, how could they be afraid that this was not worth talking about at all?
The master put his hand behind his back and looked at Gondor and Lina, as if he was very unhappy with the rebellious aura that young people would have, "Report your name." ”
"This is Lena. With a confident smile on her face, Lena bowed to the Master as she had saluted Ranaya in the northern suburbs of Saida.
"Gondor, it's me. Gondor stood straight, not bowing as wide as Lina did.
"Take off the face towel. The Master said to Gondor.
"When I officially become a member of the guild, it's never too late. Gondor's head tilted slightly, casually looking at the ground.
The master's brows furrowed, but the master didn't know that this orc man was acting so unruly because he didn't believe that he was a relic contractor, and he didn't distinguish between high and low, and the master said in a deep voice: "Gondor, if you don't do it, I can immediately cancel your qualification for the trial, and then let you leave here now!"
Gondor paused, then pulled off the triangular scarf on his face, crumpled it together with the incomparably long scarf, and held it in his hand.
Although Gondor was an orc, except for his red eyes, the rest of his face was exactly the same as that of a normal human, and he was even handsome, if it weren't for the scar that slanted down his left lip.
"The hat was taken off. The master then said lightly.
Gondor pulled his hat off again. Without the cover of the face towel, the unwilling look on his face was fully displayed in the eyes of everyone, and letting him remove these things was as if he had lost his dignity.
Gondor has short blond hair that catches the eye, and two cat-like ears hidden in the upper hairs of the equivalent of human ears are also golden, but he has a spike on each side of his ear, so it is impossible to tell what kind of orc he is.
Undisappointed by Gondor's performance, the Master said, "Come with me." ”
Lena and Gondor followed out of the weapons hall, and the Master turned around to see Lanaya and Seventeen still in place, and called out, "Come here, too." ”
Lanaya and Seventeen followed. There are so few people in the Thieves' Guild that it's hard to find someone who specializes in testing new members, and it seems that the Master wants them to be overseers.
Coming to a closed iron door, the master opened it with a key and pushed it inside.
The dust was blowing in his face, and he was so blurry that he couldn't see the scene inside for a while, and it seemed that the Thieves' Guild had really not been cared for for a long time.
On the outer wall of this iron door, there is a sign with rust, but it is still recognizable: Organ Room.
The master took out the two most ordinary flying blades from his bosom, handed them to Lanaya, and said, "You go in, go to the top, and put these two flying blades on the table." ”
Lanaya took the two blades, and a strong sense of familiarity came over her.
This is the most comfortable blade she uses, three years ago she was able to blindly shoot at a target in flight, a small ball the size of a grape, and she knows that the length, width, weight, strength and distance of this flying blade are reversed.
It was as if the flying blade had long since become a part of her body.
"Sixteen, did you hear me?" Facing Lanaya, the master's tone was as softened as possible, and there was no need to question.
"Oh!" Lanaya replied, brushing off the heavy dust that had drifted out of her hand and walked inside.
It was a long, closed chamber, only five meters wide and high, but two hundred meters long, and its sole function was only to train the members of the guild in speed and reflexes.
Along the way, she didn't see anything superfluous, and soon reached the end of the room, and looked up to see a protruding stone slab, and without asking anyone, Lanaya knew that this was the platform that the master was talking about, and threw the two flying blades on it with a little force.
When Lanaya came out, the Master said to her and Seventeen, "You stand outside and watch over them. Then, the Master turned on the main switch in the trap room.
An ancient sound sounded, and the chamber began to change, the light of the torches first lit up, and some of the ground began to rise to form pumice slabs of varying distances, and some formed high walls, only half a meter from the ceiling, and on that high wall, there were sharp steel spikes.
The Master said to Lena and Gondor, "Your task is to get the flying blade on the innermost platform within two minutes, and then come out and give it to them......
Then, out of nowhere, the Master pulled out another hourglass, and with a crisp sound on the console of the machine room where he placed the hourglass aside, he shouted, "The trial begins!"
"Two minutes...... This can't be!" Seventeen opened his mouth in surprise, the last time he used the organ room was about four years ago, and at that time, it would take him five minutes to get out, why was the threshold for joining the club so high this time!
Lena took the levitation technique and took to the air, but she wasn't the first to go in, apparently wanting to wait for Gondor to test the waters for her.
The sound of squirming sounded, Gondor loosened the hat, scarf, and other outfits that did not match the summer in his hand on the ground, and then he took off his coat and snapped his fingers a few times.
"Pediatric stuff. I could have cheated on it, but now I don't want to do that. Gondor looked inside the chamber, completely oblivious to the next trial.
Faced with the various sharp weapons that seemed to operate quickly with a certain pattern in the room, he walked in as if he had walked into his own home.
"Whoosh!" Three arrows flew at him from the side as Gondor's first foot stepped in.
Gondor remained motionless, allowing the three arrows to hit his arm.
Gondor casually glanced at his arm, which had been struck by the arrow, and very casually pulled out the three arrows and threw them on the ground.
The others could see clearly that there was not a single trace of blood on the heads of the three arrows, as if there was no blood in Gondor's body.
"What a weirdo. The Master smiled with interest at Gondor's back. At this time, the master had gradually begun to believe that they were relic contractors, and if ordinary people were hit by such a dark arrow, they would definitely fall to the ground in pain.
At this time, Gondor turned around and hooked his hand at Lena, who was floating outside, "These things can't hurt you, come in!"
Lena was still a little skeptical, she knew that the strength of human bodies could not be compared to orcs, not to mention that she was still a mage who did not strengthen her body very much, before she entered, she used the fire element to form a shield, surrounded her body, and then tried to fly in.
It didn't feel much for Lena, but the master and Seventeen, who were close by, only felt a wave of fire rushing towards them, almost melting by such a temperature, and when Lena flew away, they could still feel the burning pain on their skin.
Lanaya was protected by the Cloak of Guardians, and though not as strong as they felt, she was surprised. The strength of the Fire Wizard is equivalent to that of the mage who has entered the Transformation Realm on the other side of the Ability Realm.
"As for such a big deal?" Gondor sneered at Lena.
"My magic is enough for me to unleash a hundred of these flame shields......" Lena replied loudly, proving herself, and as she went deeper, more dark arrows were fired at her than before.
The room for the internal members of the Thieves' Guild to practice cannot be as desperate as on the battlefield, and its arrows are all made of hardwood, which is sure to hurt people, but it will not cause death, let alone in the face of fire.
Before she could get close to Lena, the arrows were all turned to black ash and scattered on the ground.
"It's hot to me!" Gondor snorted at Lina as she flew away from him, picking up his own speed.
The two of them are all decorations, one uses his body to carry it, and the other uses a flame shield to resist, plus their speed of action beyond ordinary people, this trial seems to be no suspense.
Some insurmountable obstacles for ordinary people, such as long-distance jumps and high vertical climbing, they are also handy, and they reach the top in a short time.
The master originally wanted to open the second mechanism to make it difficult for them, but now it seems that there is no need, even if they are not relic contractors, such a master is hard to find.
The two blades were handed into the hands of Seventeen and Lanaya, respectively, and looking at the hourglass on the side, less than a third of the time had passed, and at the beginning, Gondor and Lena were still outside the door for a while.
"Seventeen, take them to get the token, you have officially become apprentices. The master closed the master control switch and door of the organ room, and then added: "Sixteen, you and them can't be too ostentatious!"
"Yes!" Lanaya said, but how could she do it. Once the news comes back, she will be leaving, maybe alone, maybe with Lena and Gondor, the Thieves' Guild, and probably never coming back.
Speaking of which, Lanaya is still not responsible for this former home, if she really wants to do something, will she have to call the master who stayed here, Zero Six and Seventeen, and then use her amethyst ring to take all the wealth here, and abandon this headquarters, so as to protect the only ones left?
Lanaya had to leave, Lena and Gondor had come with her, and once she left, the two of them wouldn't stay long. She figured that she would have to explain to the master that it was impossible to revive the Guild, and for this guild with three Radiant Contractors, the Dire forces were their worst enemy!
When the process of joining the guild was complete, Gondor called Lanaya to the conference room. Lanaya knew he wanted to tell her something for a long time, but Lanaya didn't have any expectations, she didn't believe in good luck anymore, she didn't believe that what Gondor was going to tell her had to do with Baush.
Instead, it would drag her in the opposite direction of the target.
