2 Creed

This incident made his mood suddenly very bad, hurriedly stuffed food and drink, he walked out of the cafeteria, glanced to the left, and suddenly saw a stream of blood flowing out of the grass, lifted the grass and walked in, and saw the apprentice who was still curled up in a ball and crying bitterly just now stretched out on the mud floor, his pupils lost focus, and blood came out of the gap in his wrist like a twisted dragon's head, seeing this scene, Penny's mood was even worse.

As a former surgeon, he is much less indifferent to life and death than ordinary people, but he is more sensitive and prone to subtle ups and downs in his mood - all in all, it is not good to see someone die in front of him.

If he turns and walks away, this body may be unrecognizable tomorrow on the laboratory table in front of Penny's eyes, and become his dissecting material.

Thinking of this, looking at the still twitching body on the grass, Penny had already begun to repulse to his stomach.

Crossing the grass and seeing that there were no other apprentices or mentors in the courtyard, he hurriedly wrapped the wound of the unfortunate child, and carefully turned his robe, and saw that the little face under the dirty hair was no more than seven years old, and it was still a female face, perhaps a newcomer who could not bear the 'wonderful' atmosphere here.

After all, for a child who has just understood some things and has not experienced much life, it is really a great misfortune to enter the Red Robe Academy

Penny was frustrated by the sympathy he had been avoiding, but he didn't like to give up halfway, and when he saw that no one else was around, he decided to save the victim.

By the time the young female apprentice woke up in the middle of the night, she was obviously very surprised by the fact that she had not hung up, and then her expression darkened, and without saying a word, she climbed out of bed and walked barefoot to the door, she didn't care who kept her alive, for her, who had lost the heart to live, living was just to die again.

"You're in luck, if even one more person sees it then, I won't do it. A tired voice, yawning, reached the apprentice's ears from the bookcase in the corner, and she turned her head in astonishment to see the legend lying in that corner—although many people didn't like to admit it, many of the red-robed apprentices were deeply impressed by Penny Thean, a freak who never became an official mage and never became a specimen, so the two years, especially this year's apprentices, were very familiar with Penny's appearance and name.

After all, there is only one fourteen-year-old living person in the academy, which is very obvious.

So the young girl's apprentice finally had a trace of curiosity in her heart: "Why?"

Although she has been in the apprenticeship academy for less than a year, the female apprentice already knows deeply that indifference is the first compulsory lesson in the red robe's life, and she is no exception, and she does not believe that this legendary senior will be an exception, so she is very suspicious of the intentions of this senior who has lived long enough.

"Not why. ”

The answer in the corner was very concise, and it was clear that Penny didn't bother to explain.

"Oh. ”

The female apprentice nodded, said no more, and was about to go out.

"Are you going to die in such a hurry to get out?"

Penny's words hit the lingering thought in the apprentice's heart, as if an arrow had hit the bull's-eye with precision, making her expression feel as if she had been hit by a sixth-order petrification technique of the transformation system.

"You know, the Academy's recent project is to study the transformation of the souls of dying people and the possible way to transform the spirits - although this is more of a necromantic subject, but you know, our spell department has a strong interest in creatures and souls, so there is a good chance that your corpse will be dissected, and your brain will be soaked in the activation liquid, well, there is a good chance that the soul will be extracted for testing...... Hey, you're scared?"

Penny raised his head, scratched his hair like a bird's nest, and saw the female apprentice slumped in front of the door trembling, and his voice was a little indifferent: "Hey, I thought that such a guy was not afraid of death, but now it seems that he is just a fool who doesn't take his life seriously when his brain is hot." ”

"I, I'm ......" the young girl apprentice suddenly cried: "I don't want to die!

Penny stared calmly at the little girl curled up in a ball and weeping bitterly, and did not make any more movements, the average person's suicidal impulse is only for a short time, and if properly directed, this urge often turns into hysterical venting.

He didn't intend to interfere with this kind of venting, this kind of indifferent place, a little more conscience and warmth were luxuries, what he did today had greatly deviated from the purpose of the red robe, so it was impossible for him to give something away generously again, to be able to tolerate this little girl crying until she was tired, and her nerves already had an unbearable tenseness:

The sobs gradually became quieter, but after a long time there was still no sound of the door opening and closing, and Penny Theon looked up impatiently, and saw a pair of large, timid and bright eyes, with a watery light:

"Sir, I'm ...... Will you be able to live?"

That kind of vision is like a sheep waiting to be slaughtered, which makes Penny Sean unconsciously soften, but the words that come out of his mouth can only be described as bitter:

"Don't worry, a crybaby like you who knows at first glance that it's easy to bully, many of the more stupid guys are willing to have fun in the process of bullying you, you may be trampled into a piece of shit, but the chances of survival are much higher than those fools, at least they won't bother to deal with you, in the eyes of those mentors, if you are of some use, as long as you are not too conspicuous, the chances of surviving for six years are not small. ”

"Oh. The young girl's eyes lit up, wiped her tears, and nodded: "Thank you, thank you, sir." ”

"Get out of here if you've cried enough, I don't want your body to be on the dissecting table in front of me in a few days. Seeing that the little girl was no longer crying, Penny waved his hand impatiently.

"Yes! Yes!" the apprentice nodded and walked out, stumbling over the doorframe as he left, rolling out a few steps like a gourd, but not forgetting to come back and close the door, and then the footsteps faded away.

The room was pitch black, with his back leaning against the backrest, and Penny's eyes were fixed on the invisible ceiling.

You have to be useful, but don't be too conspicuous.

This is Penny's life rule for many years, he just said this sentence, and he was a little surprised, he has been here for eight years, and today is the day he talks the most, so that he even said this sentence, but he doesn't hate this feeling, the pressure needs to be channeled at the right time, and the little girl just now is just the right time. So much so that receiving a thank you who has few, oh, never heard before, is also a surprise.

However, in Penny's opinion, this incident will eventually become an insignificant episode in his apprenticeship, and if the young female apprentice does not appear on his dissecting table in the future, she will quickly learn to wrap the coldness and cruelty in her chest with a cowardly shell, and will never say thank you sincerely. Penny didn't even bother to know her name, and didn't even pay much attention to her appearance.

So Penny quickly took it to heart, and climbed into the shabby little bed, and it was time to sleep.
