Rozim was still a little nervous when he was called to the commander's office by Soshyan alone, because he knew that what he had done had been discovered, and the Hellfire Stone was taken away by a guy named Kayang as soon as he returned to the track.
However, he and his chef did not get anything done. They were not imprisoned or dismissed. But Karen was locked up again.
After tidying up his gray team logistics uniform, Rozim took a deep breath and prepared to ring the doorbell.
But the door opened itself.
"Come in."
Rozim walked in and saw Soshiyan sitting behind a huge wooden table with several data boards and a pile of documents, and a pen inserted in the ink bottle.
"Fight...Captain of the Battle."
"Sit down."
Soshyang raised his head and pointed to a chair leaning against the left side of the table. Rozim sat on it carefully.
But at this moment, he suddenly noticed that there were several shallow scratches on Soshiyang's left face against his neck, which seemed to be scratched by some small animal.
But it seems that there are no pets in the battle group?
Soshiyan leaned back, turned his head, looked at Rozim, and said nothing.
But this atmosphere made Rozim even more uneasy. He sat quietly for more than ten seconds, then scratched his head, and his legs began to shake uncontrollably.
Just as Rozim was almost driven crazy by this silence, Soshiyan suddenly sighed softly, pulled out a photo from the drawer that pulled out the table.
Rozim took a secret glance, but was stunned.
It was a photo taken in front of a statue, with more than fifty young people. He was on the left side of the second row, and the third one on the left was the current Soshiyang.
At that time, they were just the callers, but at that time, Soshiyan had already appeared taller than the people around him.
"There were so many people back then, you and me, brothers Rozim."
Rozim was stunned for a long time when he looked at the photo, and finally nodded silently.
Yes, the only ones who received the transformation in the same group of people who have been transformed are still alive.
Soshiyang stared at the photo, a look of remembrance appeared on his face, and then placed it on the table, while his hands were placed on the table.
"Remember when we just arrived at Obsidian Fortress?"
Rozim nodded.
"Ah, I remember, I was in a miserable state at that time..."
In the words, a ghost called memory pulled the two back a hundred years ago again-
"You're all chosen."
A giant stood on the platform and looked down at the newcomer. The huge stone pierced from the ground like a tooth. The place close to the top was chiseled into a platform. The whole stone was carved into an eagle emblem facing the audience.
"You all know what this means now."
Soshiyan's eyes moved from the giant to the distant mountains, and his mood was no longer as relaxed as he had come, especially after he seemed to have received some additional transformation-
But the others are different. Their eyes are all stuck to the priest, with an almost crazy expectation in their eyes.
There were about fifty people standing beside him, who were taken to the flat ground of the monastery fortress as the sun rose.
Everyone was wearing uniform clothes, but many people had bruises and scars on their faces and hands. Soshiyang felt that not everyone came from the nest, and a considerable number of people had a primitive and barbaric atmosphere.
The source of the Knights of the Astral Realm seemed to be more complicated than he thought.
Suoshiyang suddenly trembled again, perhaps because the air was very cold, the air he exhaled condensed into fog, or perhaps because of other reasons around him.
After being brought out of that mysterious laboratory, he often felt an inexplicable chill.
"...We see potential in you, a potential that will allow you to join us, I emphasize, is 'possible'! But first of all, you need to forget a lot of things, and even die if necessary! In some cases, for some of you, this has happened!"
When the pastor spoke, his eyes seemed to sweep over Soshiyan intentionally or unintentionally.
"But these differences don't matter! You just need to remember one thing! From now on, there will be no second chance. If you die here, it is because you are not qualified to join the ranks of heroes! The Knights of the Astrology provide you with an opportunity to prove yourself and prove that you can stand among the greatest heroes in the world! You must prove that you can join us and become our brothers."
Soshyan could feel the atmosphere of everyone becoming more intense and commotion. No one didn't want to be an Astarte, an immortal and powerful warrior.
"But so far, you can't understand how glorious it is, or the weight of the responsibility it forces you to bear some day later. Now you just need to listen. The battle group's requirements for you are not relaxed, and the trials you need to complete are not simple... This is not harsh. In the future, you will understand how terrible darkness the Space Marines will need to go into, and what evil enemies you face, and where you are completely unimaginable now, all this harshness is just to create a warrior who can fight to the last moment in the worst situation."
The priest's words were very real, and it reminded Soshyan of why he wanted to become an Astral Warrior.
Standing between humans and darkness.
"The day ahead you may be asked to stand between humans and their ultimate enemies, fight against terrible enemies that legends cannot describe, and fight against evil forces that are about to destroy everything, all of which are possible - as long as you prove yourself qualified."
"The next thing you have to face is the test of heroism, and the reward for success is not ordinary. If you succeed, you will get a lifespan longer than any mortal and gain any legendary power. You will fly out of the sky and go to the most distant stars. Fighting in the most heroic war, you will have the opportunity to receive merit and glory, as well as the respect of the real strong! If you prove that you, strength, glory and immortality are yours, and if you fail, you may be death. This is the road before you. From today and from now on, there is no other choice, either victory or death. Do you understand what I said?"
The priest's figure seemed to become increasingly huge, and an proud aura was emitting around him. His words were engraved with power directly into the consciousness of all boys, making them afraid and arousing their ambitions.
"Did you understand what I said?"
The priest then repeated it.
"clear!"
Everyone's voices answered together, resounding through the sky.
