64. Take Control
To be a guard, you not only need loyalty to Hell City, but also need sufficient physical fitness. The former Donald does not have it, but you can pretend. The latter Donald's attributes are 25 points of strength, 25 points of physique, and 20 points of sharpness.
With James' recommendation, Donald successfully signed up for the soldiers. He went to the City Guard Mansion for a test tomorrow morning.
There is not much time left for them.
...
Chengweifu Schoolyard.
Dozens of figures stood everywhere in the school, standing or sitting, making a lot of noise. Among them were civilians and poor people, most of whom were dirty and muddy, and there were very few clean clothes.
A moment later, a strong man in standard costume followed the soldiers to everyone.
"quiet!"
These people stood up one after another, stood still and looked at the strong man.
Behind him, a ray of light gradually casts down from the top of the cave.
It's dawn.
There is the place that every inhabitant dreams of, aristocratic district.
At the center of the cave is a sinkhole, with a diameter of hundreds of meters and a 100-meter-lowering rock wall. The aristocratic area is built around the sinkhole, and it is also the only place where light is obtained in Hell City.
In everyone's eyes, the strong man said, "Run around the school field for 10 laps, and the runners will enter the second test."
They were taken to the starting point by soldiers to start running. The school ground of about 300 meters per lap for many people could not finish a lap. The team opened at the beginning. Some of the soldiers who were cheating and wanted to run shortcuts were dragged away by the soldiers and cried.
The shouts are getting farther and farther away.
Donald undoubtedly took the first place. He had no intention of enduring and completed ten laps at a constant speed. He returned to the center of the school ground and stood upright and waited.
His breathing was still steady, and most people had not finished 5 laps.
Donald was noticed by everyone.
Half an hour later, the strong man stopped waiting and drove away the remaining twenty people, and the rest of the unfinished ones were driven out.
"You guys passed the test one by luck, but don't think you've overcome the difficulties. The second test is..." The strong man paused slightly, and said with a hideous expression: "Sustain for a minute under my hands. If you want to retreat, you can get out now.
. ""
Despite their eyes sweating profusely, no one wants to retreat. For them, being a soldier can have a full meal. Being beaten is nothing.
"very good."
The strong man took off his top, revealing his strong muscles, and hooked his fingers at a young man.
The young man stepped forward, shouted and rushed forward without any moves. The strong man smiled contemptuously, and didn't look at the fist, kicking it out and kicking it in the young man's calf.
With a small crack, the leg bones broke from the middle. The young man staggered forward before rolling and falling, holding his shaking calves, screaming bitterly.
"Next." The strong man looked at the crowd.
Everyone is afraid to retreat. The law among the poor: injury is equal to death.
The bones are broken, and this person will not survive this winter.
In this, Donald stepped out calmly.
The strong man showed satisfaction and turned his fist. Seeing that Donald did not take the initiative to attack, he sneered and waved his fist with a strong wind.
Bang!
Donald easily caught his fist, twisted his hand and walked behind the strong man, and gently kicked his foot at the bend of his leg.
The strong man's knee fell and smashed into the sand. He wanted to resist, but the pain in his arms suddenly increased, making him unable to help lean forward.
Donald wanted to stop, but noticed some figures appearing on the edge of the school field.
So he raised his legs and stepped on the back of the strong man's head, making his face close to the rough sand and stones.
Everything happened, and everyone was dazed.
"Do you give up?" Donald asked.
The strong man's reply was the neck with blue veins exposed and the roar of a beast.
"You have to admit it if you get beaten."
A sound came from the slanting ground.
Donald stopped and looked back calmly.
The city guard officials came around surrounded by subordinates.
Even if he is unwilling to accept it, the strong man can only get up in vain and shout for the silence of the superior.
The city guard officer looked at Donald with a calm face with interest and said, "Is it so cruel to treat my future companions?"
"He is my enemy in the battle, and I will not hold back."
"Well said," the city guard officer praised, and his interest became stronger. "I ask you, what do you think of Hell City?"
“My home.”
"Why do you want to be a soldier?"
“Defend your home.”
The city guards tidied Donald's collar, and his appreciation was beyond words: "Very good, what's your name?"
"Donald, sir."
"Are you a soldier?" The city guard officer exclaimed.
"I was a military academy student."
"Then you..." The city guard officer thought for a moment, intending to arrange this young man who was very similar to his youth.
"Sir, a soldier at the entrance No. 3 fell to death last night. I was going to send him there." The strong man suddenly spoke.
The city guard officer showed a slight displeasure on his face, then disappeared, and asked Donald lightly: "Do you have any objections?"
"Assuming the arrangements of the superior."
"Very good." The city guard officer was as satisfied with Donald's attitude as he was, how disappointed he was with the strong man. I glanced at him coldly: "I don't want anyone to suffer irreparable injuries. You know, it takes a person to grow up to be necessary.
It took a lot of time."
"Yes, sir." The strong man lowered his head and responded nervously.
The city guards and the crowd behind him left. The strong man who had achieved his goal did not want to see Donald again, and waved his hand to call the soldiers to take Donald away.
Donald received an old soldier uniform that was obviously worn. He was arranged to garrison on the high platform on the day he became a soldier.
The soldiers there certainly wouldn't remember the appearance of a poor man, and Donald easily fit in, especially as the rest of the members secretly let them know what happened in the schoolyard.
Patton is the name of the insatiable captain.
He didn't know that his behavior had been known to the group. In the afternoon, as usual, he left the entrance and secretly went to the Rose Tavern to find a woman. As a result, he accidentally fell down and knocked onto the steps when he went upstairs. When the tavern owner helped him up,
This poor guy is already out of breath.
Everyone thought this was an accident, and the City Guard Mansion did not follow up, and there was no news. Everyone present saw that he fell down by himself, and he should have been stationed at the entrance at this time. Mobile::
...
"The little guy yesterday went to the entrance No. 3. He can be the captain."
In an office with a wool carpet and a bookcase full of books, the city guard sat behind the desk and closed his eyes to take a nap. He learned that at this time, he promoted Donald without any concern.
"He has only become a guard for one day." His assistant stood at the table, his tone in a dilemma.
The city guard officer did not look at him and played with a crystal water cup: "Why don't I know that Hell City has an additional rule that the longer it is in office, the higher the position?"
"I understand, sir..."
...
"Now you are the heads of these soldiers." The assistant came to the entrance No. 3, informed Donald of the appointment, and then whispered: "If I were you, I would teach these subordinates a lesson."
Most of the nine soldiers standing not far away expressed reluctance and jealousy.
"I will." Donald nodded and handed a small piece of gold to the assistant's palm.
The latter left with satisfaction. He knew why the city guards were paying attention to him.
