Chapter 23 The Knight's Oath, Assessment and Evaluation
"came back!"
"He's not dead, the two of them are back together!"
After Chen Gou and Dong used magic power to activate the void stone, they were directly swallowed by a void crack, and then went through the process of landing in the abyss world again.
Returning to the heavily guarded fortress, I heard someone shouting not far away.
Among the garrison soldiers in the fortress, there are only a handful of Abyss Knights, and most of the others are servants belonging to the Abyss Knights.
Among them are awakened ones with mediocre talents and low awakening levels, as well as ordinary warriors who do not have the power to awaken the law.
Looking at the two people emerging from the void tunnel, there was awe in their envious eyes.
Being able to pass the abyss assessment...is a symbol of strength and potential.
"Catch it!"
Chen Gou looked up and saw a metal mask falling from the air. It looked similar to other abyss knights.
It's just that compared to the knights of the Fayuan team, it's a little rough and not so refined.
The equipment of the Abyss Knights includes standard armor, swords, lances, bows and masks.
The armor and weapons can be replaced with better law props. The only requirement is that they should be mainly black.
Only the mask cannot be changed casually. You need to apply to the Knights Headquarters for permission.
Because the mask is the status symbol of the Abyss Knight, the level of the Abyss Knight can even be judged from the details of the mask.
"Congratulations to the three of you for passing the examination and officially becoming the Knights of the Abyss starting today. Now, read the oath of knighthood with me."
The voice came from a big shot like a "little sun".
"Three?"
Chen Gou was startled. He turned around and saw Ke Ang not far away, looking at him and Dong Li with a smile.
"Three of us together, Mansha and Shi Meng were transformed into soul-returning corpses, and he is actually fine?"
Just when I was wondering, the majestic voice in the sky sounded:
"The long night has come, we were born in the sunset, from the light.
I will forge my plows into swords, level the abyss, and give my life to them.
I will pursue my ancestors, carry forward the legacy of my ancestors, and never retreat without fear.
I will die on thorns, and my flesh and blood will turn to clay to pave the road ahead.
It begins now and will not end until death."
…………
Rumble!
The sound of eight knights and thirty-two horse hooves galloping across the ground was like thunder.
Chen Gou, Dong Li and Ke Ang, three newly promoted Abyss Knights, returned from the Wilderness Fortress towards Rock City under the protection of a five-man team.
Chen Gou had never ridden a horse alone before, but he felt quite stable sitting on the horse.
This is due to the extraordinary nature of the Black Abyss War Horse, which is a legal biological species that has been optimized for at least twenty years and has now become the standard mount of the Abyss Knights.
The most conspicuous and unique symbol is the black flames floating on the horses' hooves when they gallop.
After dozens of minutes of walking through the wilderness and scattered villages, the group could finally see the huge outline of Rock City in the distance.
There was a long queue of people waiting to enter the city near the city gate. Wherever the black abyss war horses passed, pedestrians gave way.
When they saw Chen Gou and the others, who were wearing ordinary clothes but wearing metal masks, riding war horses and accompanying the Abyss Knights, they couldn't help but look envious.
They could easily tell that these three young men escorted by the Abyss Knights must be newly promoted knights who had just passed the abyss assessment.
"Are you coming to the core area of the inner city?"
The knights led the three people directly through the second city gate, entered the inner city, and came to a church.
The tall church is built with a kind of white feldspar, without too many ornate decorations. It looks simple, but is actually solemn and solemn.
Cathedral of the Rock.
The headquarters of the Rock Branch of the Covenant Church!
Without saying a word, the knights led the three of them past the guards at the door, and then moved forward, passing through the hall, the long corridors and stairs, and arrived at the five rooms lined up near the top of the church.
Then the knights stood on the left and right sides of the door, signaling Chen Gou, Ke Ang, and Dong Li to choose a room to enter.
Chen Gou didn't think much, he pushed open the door on the far left and stepped into the bright and open room.
The decoration of the room was elegant and simple, mainly in black and white. An old man wearing a white sacrificial robe sat behind a long white solid wood table.
"Come here, sit down and talk."
Chen Gou walked over humbly and sat down on the wooden table. The door closed automatically behind him.
The old man smiled and said: "This time, three of the six people passed the assessment. Can you tell me whether it is strength or luck?"
"What I have here is strength, resourcefulness and luck. As for the others, I don't know." Chen Gou replied.
The old man nodded slightly and said solemnly: "Describe in detail what you saw, heard, and did in the abyss world.
The more detailed the better, I didn’t interrupt you, just keep going until you think you’ve said everything you need to say.”
Chen Gou's expression remained unchanged: "Is this censorship?"
"You can think so. After all, when you came back from the abyss, there were examiners who were bewitched by evil spirits and broke into the Holy See, causing huge losses to the Holy See."
The old man gave a serious warning first, and then said with a calm expression: "But as long as you are normal, there is no need to worry, we will never wrong you. In addition, how much useful information we can provide will also affect your final evaluation, rewards and future plans.
Positions held in the Order, etc.”
Rewards and positions!
Chen Gou was overjoyed. It meant that he could directly pass through the apprentice knight stage of being a helper and directly obtain a better official position?
It is said that it must be said, the question is how to say it.
What needs to be said cannot be concealed, but his own secrets cannot be exposed either.
So Chen Gou pondered and selectively told his experience.
The part about himself is kept as vague as possible, mainly talking about the secrets of the vampire world and his final cooperation with the vampire.
"You mean, you killed an evil leader of that abyss world, and at the same time, you also tentatively confirmed the intention to cooperate with the other three leaders?"
After hearing this, the old man suddenly stood up from his chair with a look of horror on his face, completely ignoring his image.
"Yes, I have agreed on the contact information with them. You only need to send someone over to prove the authenticity."
"Boy, if this is really the case, you will have made a great contribution!"
The white-haired old man left directly and rushed into other rooms.
Then the "interviewers" in the three rooms gathered together, obviously comparing the three people's statements with each other to see if there were any flaws or lies.
It took about half an hour before the three of them showed up again.
The old man who interviewed Chen Gou announced the final result:
"Keon Lannus, provided general information, killed a small number of primary demons, evaluated bronze, rewarded a bronze-level skill crystal, made a bronze knight, and was appointed to the right-wing Sun team of the Rock Branch of the Knights of the Abyss.
Apprentice knight."
"Dongli Arslan, provided important information, killed the high-level evil demon, evaluated the gold, and was rewarded with a pair of silver-level law props, Yanyang Gloves, and was awarded the title of Silver Knight. He was inaugurated as an official knight of the Left Wing Changsong Team of the Knights of the Abyss.
"
"Chen Gou, provided extremely important information, killed the high-level evil demon, evaluated the gold, and rewarded himself for choosing a silver-level skill crystal or law item from the branch hall's treasure house, becoming a Silver Knight, and inaugurating the left-wing Changsong Team of the Abyss Knights.
Chapter completed!
