Evetrona's old stories

Eve and Akanlu didn't get out of the car in a hurry, Di Geng and Lin Xin passed through another carriage and joined the two people here.The three of them didn't carry much luggage, each with a small suitcase, which made Eve's two suitcases very conspicuous.

Among the two boxes, the larger one weighs about 10 kilograms in total, and it contains books and daily necessities, while the smaller one weighs about 6 kilograms, and it is full of changes of clothes and shoes. It was said that school uniforms were basically worn all the time at the Knight Academy, so she only brought some underwear and pajamas, as well as a few regular clothes.

Eve didn't need other people's help, so she just carried a box in one hand and got out of the carriage with the crowd. Akanlu was surprised by her sudden showing of her hand, and couldn't help but give this "frail and sickly" young lady another high opinion. .There seems to be a team leader on the side of the Knight Academy, and more than 200 students lined up in several rows on the platform. Eve didn't know the way, so she followed Akanlu and the others to the back of the team at the training center.

"We may not be able to go together for a while." Akanlu stood beside her and whispered: "You will go to the team leader here later, tell him about the situation, and let him find a way to send you there."

"Where are you going?" Eve asked.

"The training at the knight training center has already started when we got off the car." Akanlu pointed to the mountain in the distance and said, "Look at the castle over there, that is Benlong Castle, we will run up later .”

Eve turned her head and looked in the direction Akanlu was pointing at: there was a mountain in the distance, about 1000 meters high by visual inspection. The top and bottom of the mountain were covered with evergreen trees, and from the mountainside to the top were covered with white buildings and The colorful flags fluttered on the city walls and high towers. These tall man-made objects looked sharp and angular under the sunlight, and they looked very majestic and magnificent.

This is the Benlongbao of "Benlongbao City".

While they were talking, the front row of the team had already started to move, and Eve followed the big team out of the train station.Like most cities today, the stations are built close to the edge of the city, and the surroundings are deserted, only the wide avenue in front of them is fairly well-built.

A horse walked quickly around the team twice. The rider was a man wearing a black cavalry cloak. He looked very tall and strong. There were two swords around his waist, one long and the other short, and a hood on his head. Only half of his face was exposed, with a somewhat messy gray beard on his chin. He was about five or sixty years old.The horse he was riding was also broad-shouldered, with strong limbs, brown and black, with only a little white on the chest, which looked mighty.Just like this, one person and one horse passed by Eve, and she stared at her blankly—this old man is really too chic, and if possible, Eve would like to live like him even more.

Seeing her fascinated, Akanlu began to introduce this person in her ear: "He is an instructor in our training center and a rare holy knight in Shengfeng Mountain. His name is Lotilan Umber. A mature man like this is indeed very charming. Many girls in your School of Philosophy are fascinated by him."

"What a fan, I just like his equipment and that horse, it's just too majestic." Eve didn't look away, just watching the knight go away.

"Don't look, you will definitely meet him again when you come to our training center." Akanlu shook her shoulder.

"Do you also dress like this during training?" Eve turned around and asked her.

"Cavalry cloak? Riding training can only be done when you are close to the level of an intermediate knight, and the advanced intermediate knight has already involved actual combat. At most, only one-fifth of the students in the first class can advance, so - it is very difficult. There is such an opportunity."

"What level are you now?" Eve asked.

"Elementary level three, and there are two more levels before you can proceed to the advanced assessment of intermediate knights. If you are lucky and have a chance to get a mission, I plan to apply for the assessment this year."

"Each level has five levels?"

"It's not at all. There are six levels for the elementary level, elementary level, and level one to level five, and for the middle level and advanced level, there are three levels, namely, elementary, intermediate, and advanced. Can get the high-level junior certification, and after the high-level knight leaves the academy, he is equivalent to a national school-level officer."

While the two were still talking, Lotilan, who was riding a horse, was talking with the leader in front of him. The leader was also riding a horse, wearing a gray singlet, the clothes were bulging, and he didn't know whether the clothes were fat or fat.This man looks ferocious, wearing a dark gray bucket hat, holding the rein in one hand, and carrying a flag in the other. The flag flutters with the wind. The flag is dark red with a black shield printed on it, and a white dragon wing on the black shield. If you look closely, the dragon wings are made up of patterns of different weapons. Eve has seen this pattern on the uniforms of senior students, but the coat of arms on the black uniforms is black with a white background.

"Okay, everyone, be quiet!" The team leader waved the flag in his hand and shouted loudly. His voice was rough and hoarse. It sounded like he was going to charge to kill the enemy, which was a little scary.

Lotilan left and galloped towards the castle.

"Freshmen come out and stand in two rows under the flag!" After saying this, the team leader threw the steel-handled flag in his hand. Although he didn't seem to use much strength, the flag was firmly planted on the ground.

"Maybe we have to say goodbye." Akanlu bent down, hugged Eve, and said, "Let's meet at Longbao, you know where I live."

After the two parted, Eve walked into the freshman queue with two large boxes. Since she was the slowest, the team leader on horseback kept staring at her until she entered the queue.The man's eyes were really ferocious, which made Eve's scalp tingle, and he even walked much faster.

On the other side, the senior students have regrouped and are running towards the Dragon Fort.

"Today is February 28th. You are the third batch of students from the Knight Training Institute. There are a total of..." The team leader squinted his eyes for a while and said, "There are 48 students in total."

The sun hadn’t set yet, but the wind had already picked up. Yikerin Province was warmer than Bomeng, but it was still cold in the morning and evening, and people couldn’t stand it after staying outside for a long time. Eve was small and ran to the end of the team. Now she couldn’t see the situation ahead, and could only hear the leader talking.

"The training center only recruits those who are strong-willed, healthy, and upright. If you can't stand the training and test here, then I suggest you get out of here. I only give you a week. It's up to you to decide whether to stay here or leave with your tail between your legs." The leader rode a horse and paced in front of the team. "This Tetrogg pulled up the flag on the ground and continued: "The Knight Academy is not a military academy. Obedience and orders are not the main tone here. Maybe there will be more noble and arduous tasks waiting for you. There will still be a dinner at the Knight Academy tonight, in order to cleanse the outstanding freshmen."

When the freshmen heard Tet Rog's words, they all felt the blood surging in their bodies and the high fighting spirit that had nowhere to express, which seemed to give people endless power, but this state did not last long. I saw this The team leader continued: "Remember what I just said - excellent freshmen. But not all freshmen are excellent, so, some of you must go to bed hungry tonight. Run! Freshmen, wear black The cloaked paladin Lotilan is waiting for you on the stone bridge of the castle. Those who come first can ask him for the first medal of excellence. Let me explain in advance that he only has [-] medals in hand. First come, first served, and those who have medals You will be eligible to enter the dinner party, and those who arrive late will have no food, haha!" Tetrog became more and more excited as he spoke, he raised the flag above his head with one hand, and shook it in a circle, as if the flag had no food at all. The weight was average, and he yelled at the students again: "What are you still doing, run! You bunch of pigheads!"

All of a sudden, the freshmen were running away in a panic. They quickly left the team, carrying their luggage one by one, screaming strangely and running towards the direction of Longbao.In fact, the students were not surprised by Tet Rog’s sudden change of mind. After all, every senior student in the training center had experienced the first run when the school started, and this traditional opening ceremony has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Naturally, they would take this matter as a top priority and inform the freshmen around them. Otherwise, the freshmen would not realize the importance of traveling lightly.

Eve was still standing in the empty field with two suitcases of luggage in her hands. She glanced at Tetrogg who was staring at her, hesitated for a moment, and finally walked to him with her luggage. In front of him, Tetrogg was riding a horse, and Eve needed to look up to talk to him face to face.

"Why don't you leave?" Tetrogg asked her sullenly.The man's face was full of flesh, and he was holding a steel rod with a flag in his hand. It was shining brightly, as if it was about to hit the man's head at any time. Eve felt it was dangerous, so he took two steps back.

"I'm not a student of the training school, I'm a student of the School of Philosophy." Eve whispered, shrinking her neck.

"So what?" Tetrogg's tone was a little cold.

"Can you not run?" Eve forced a smile at him.

Tet Rogg glanced around, then leaned down to look at Eve, and asked her, "How do you prove that you are a student of the School of Philosophy?"

Eve shook her head.

"Where's your ticket?" Tetrogg held out his hand.

Eve quickly put down her luggage, took out a neatly folded ticket from her pocket, and handed it to him.

Tet Rog only glanced at it, then gave it back to her, and said, "Look for yourself, what's written on it?"

"From Yutong City in Xinleige Province to Benlong Castle in Yikelin Province, the special train of the Xiguang Knight Academy, enthusiasm, honor, and responsibility, belongs to the knight...the first-year student of the knight training center...Eve Harvey..."

After Eve read, her voice became quieter, and cold sweat began to break out on her forehead. When she looked up, she saw Tet Rogg's hideous smile, and she was so frightened that she threw the ticket on the ground.

"Okay, don't try to be lazy. I have seen a student like you in previous years, don't try to lie to me a second time, pick up the ticket and go." Tet Rog frowned again after saying these words, he Looking at the two big boxes next to Eve, and at the little one who was bending over to pick up the ticket, he finally sighed and said, "You're carrying too much luggage, give me the small box, and the other you Bring it yourself."

Eve didn't hand over the box immediately. She looked at Tetrog, and then at the box next to her, feeling tangled in her heart. This smaller box contains more private things, and the lock is not too tight. If this person swings the box open on the road or in the Knights' Academy, revealing the contents in full view, will she continue to study?

Therefore, she summoned up the courage to bargain with Tetrogg: "Can I change it? Help me carry this big box..."

Tet Rogg took one look at her and she fell silent.

"No, I won't take any of them for you." Tetrog seemed a little angry, and before Eve could react, the other party had already rode away.

Eve felt a little regretful, she wanted to stop Tetrogg, but she didn't dare.

What to do?Eve circled the box twice, then looked up at the sky—the sun seemed to be setting soon.As a last resort, she had no choice but to carry two suitcases and start on her way. There was no one around, and there was no carriage, so she could only take one step at a time.

How heavy are these two boxes?Using a 500ml can of beer as an example—a box of 18 cans weighs just under 10 kilograms. From this point of view, Eve is probably holding a whole box of beer in one hand, and a full box of beer in the other hand. Carrying a little more than half a box, although she doesn't find it too strenuous at the moment, it may be difficult to carry these things on an uphill road of nearly [-] kilometers, but anyway, her arm strength is better than that of Shengming At that time... it seemed that he had grown up again?

Shengfeng Mountain and Benlong Castle (Part [-])

Eve hurried on the road almost expressionlessly.

What she was thinking now was that she might be able to reach Benlong Castle before midnight, but unfortunately, there would be no dinner anyway.

What exactly went wrong?How could the knight academy send such an unreasonable person over to be the team leader?Why does it indicate that I am a student of the Knight Training Institute on my ticket?Thinking of this, she quickened her pace.She was indeed a little anxious, and now she wanted to find someone to ask, was she mistakenly included in the quota of the knight training center?

Eve's trip was delayed because of fainting, so Mao Qi changed the ticket for her and let her board this train, and the reason for all this was because of the gemstone, which was Evetrona's relic ... Eve was thinking wildly as she walked, and then hated Evetrona for no reason—not really holding grudges, but just wanting to question her face to face: Why did she trip herself up at such a time? son?

Thinking back, since Eve came to this world, it seems that she has never encountered any real bad luck. Today is the first time in history.The smooth sailing in the past five years has changed her a lot. If she had encountered such a thing in the past, she might have endured it with humiliation, but it is different now. Being angry - is it a progress to be angry?

Of course, being angry is also a kind of passion, which at least shows that she values ​​and loves her life.

Eve let her thoughts wander, while carrying the suitcase on the way, and her mood gradually calmed down. At this moment, when she passed by a bush, two black figures suddenly sprang up and startled her again. Jumping, Eve took a step back and almost smashed the box in her hand. I have to say that she is still as timid as before.

"Root, a copper coin, or take off your clothes, right now." This person's tone is very serious, but his voice is very recognizable: his voice is mature and magnetic, but his words are always illogical. This person is so contradictory. Not only that, he is still a 28-year-old first-year student.

"Why don't you two leave? Aren't you going to finish your meal?" Eve said, feeling very touched in her heart.

"Why do you still want to eat? The group of people in front have already disappeared, dinner? There is no dinner." Di Geng took the big box from Eve's hand, and said to Lin Xin beside him, "What do you think?" ?”

"I think I can catch up." Lin Xin replied.

Lin Xin said very little, so Di Geng was a little uncertain about what he meant, so he asked, "Are you comforting us, or are you telling the truth?"

"The few who came from Bomeng were not all from martial arts background. Except for that Becklin, they basically came for the title of knight."

"Which one is Becklin?" Di Geng asked.

"It's the tall guy who is in charge of shouting in the small court." Eve said.

"I remember, that fat man who kept gagging me!" Di Geng suddenly became agitated.

"Let's not talk about that, what Lin Xin means is, in fact, among the freshmen, good physical strength is not that much?"

"Yes, maybe less than half." Lin Xin replied.

"Then what are we waiting for? Before it's dark, let's take a few steps..." Di Geng patted Lin Xin's arm and ran out first.

While the three of them were talking, Eve's big box had been transferred from Dicken's to Lin Xin's at some point.Lin Xin didn't care, he nodded to Eve, and ran after Di Geng.

Eve carried the box and followed the two of them.Among the three, Lin Xin has the strongest strength and outstanding physical strength. Even with an extra box, he can run very easily.Although Di Geng's figure looks ordinary, as a hunter who likes to run mountains, this uphill journey is nothing.And Eve's physical fitness is a mystery. It's hard to say where her strength comes from. Is it a race?I heard that Iftrona is also a master swordsman; is it long-term training?Under Mao Qi's supervision, she practiced hard; or was it because she ate too much?This is obvious to all.

In short, they started running, with Di Geng running at the front, Eve in the middle, and Lin Xin running at the end carrying two boxes.Eve's body is really small, and she can't control the balance while carrying the box with one hand, so she can only run with the box on her back.

Among the three, only Di Geng was the most leisurely, humming while running.At this time, the sky was getting dark and the nearby lights were dimmed. Only then did Eve notice that there were quite a few residential buildings on both sides of this wide stone brick road. I can smell the aroma of rice.

After running for a while, the woolen coat began to become unwearable. Eve took off the coat and put it on her shoulders to continue running. After running for about three kilometers, they saw the tail of the freshman team. There were two Freshmen are sitting on the side of the road to rest.The distance of [-] kilometers is indeed very difficult for some people who do not exercise long, not to mention that the whole journey is uphill, and some people may stop for various reasons-nausea, dizziness, stomach Cramps, leg cramps, heart and lung pain... These are common things, especially when most people are still hungry. I don't know if the hospital has preventive measures to detect abnormalities of students in time and rescue them on the spot... Or , They don't care at all, the Knight Academy is still the Knight Academy hundreds of years ago, and it is a place to cultivate truly determined people.

The speed of the three is not fast, but it is very stable. Sometimes Eve will show signs of falling behind, and Di Geng will take the box in Eve's hand and carry it for a certain distance. After ten kilometers, there will be more students along the way. When I got up, some students kept running and stopping, and some simply decided to walk up. Some people saw these three people running past, especially when they saw a little girl in the middle, so they cheered up , and started running after them, but as they ran, they found that the three people in front were running farther and farther. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't catch up, so they planned to give up again.

In the remaining few kilometers, the uphill turned into a flat slope, and the sky completely darkened. After all, Eve's physical strength was not as good as the two in front of him. He took two rests in the second half of the road. Lin Xin handed water and food along the way.

The gray-white city wall was in front of them. After the three of them passed through the city gate, they saw a long and narrow stone bridge, and the black-clothed knight Lotilan standing beside the stone bridge.

Di Geng stopped and asked the two companions behind him: "Have you counted just now, how many people are behind us?"

"At least twenty." Eve replied.

"It's the same as if you didn't say it." Di Geng shook his head and sighed: "If we don't get the medal because of you, you can treat us to a big meal later."

"That's natural." Eve readily agreed. She is not short of money. In fact, no one is short of money for a meal.

The three of them walked towards Lotilan with some trepidation. On the one hand, they were nervous because of the majestic status of the other party's paladin, and on the other hand, they were anxious about receiving the report card.

What if the other party ignores us at all?Does that mean that the medals have been issued?But this is not the most embarrassing situation, what is even more embarrassing is... Eve was thinking about it, and saw Lotilan stretching out her hand, holding a shiny medal in that hand, and Di, who was walking in front, simply Throwing the box in his hand on the ground, he bent down very respectfully, and took the medal with both hands. In his hands, the medal was very dazzling like the only star in the night sky.

"Congratulations, No. 19." Luo Tilan's voice could not hear any waves.

Holding the medal in his hand, Di Geng turned his head slowly. He opened his mouth wide and looked at the two behind him in shock. It was obvious that he couldn't believe the sudden predicament before him.

Sure enough... Eve sighed.

There were only twenty outstanding medals in total, and after Di Geng received them, there was only the last one left, which meant that someone would not be able to eat dinner.

"Go, Lin Xin." Eve pushed the tall man beside her.

"But..." Lin Xin refused to go up.

"I'm not a student at your training center. This medal means nothing to me. What's more, the two of you have already helped me all the way, or I would have arrived long ago."

"But, the dinner..."

Before Lin Xin finished speaking, she was interrupted by the girl, "Okay, I'm indeed a bit greedy, but I'm not an idiot, so stop dawdling!"

Seeing that the girl was really angry, the tall man no longer shied away, and took the medal from Luo Tilan.

Eve is a little lost now.She ran down the mountain to Benlong Castle. It took about two and a half hours for a distance of nearly [-] kilometers. Now it was past seven o'clock, but she still got nothing in the end.But at the same time, she doesn't regret the choice she made, and it's not difficult to choose - being cute can only be pleasing for a while, and knowing how to measure can lead to long-term friendship.

"Look at your unhappy face, why don't you find a corner and squat in a corner, and we'll throw you a few yuan from the window when we're full?" Seeing her disappointment, Di Geng started talking to her. He made a joke, but ended up being kicked on the ass by the girl Feiqi.

After playing around, the three of them walked towards the stone bridge, but when Eve passed by Lotilan, the other party suddenly said, "You are Eve, right?"

"It's me." Eve replied after standing still.

"You follow me, and I'll take you to the Faculty of Philosophy," he said.

"Then...Master Knight, shall we also go see her off?" Di Geng asked.

"No, it's getting late, go to bed early after dinner and give me her luggage."

Lin Xin handed Eve's box to him, and the two bowed respectfully to Lotilan, then took their leave and left.

"Let's go to the other side." Lotilan silently took the boxes from Eve's hand, and carried the two boxes along the wall of the outer city. He walked a little fast, and the metal utensils on his body were clanging. The sound rang, and Eve hurriedly followed.

The structure of Benlong Castle is similar to a concentric castle. The inner and outer walls are about 30 meters apart, separated by a moat in the middle. The height of the outer wall reaches 12 meters. The inside of the wall is in the shape of a dam, which looks extremely steep. It is connected with giant city towers and towers. It is difficult to measure its height, and its strength may be comparable to that of a gravity dam. Several towers surround the structure of the inner and outer cities. They are of different sizes and towering toweringly.

The area on the top of the mountain is called "New Castle", which was expanded by the Knights of Mount Shengfeng, which still belonged to the Knights of the Knights, and is now planned for the School of Philosophy as a teaching building and a residential area for students.

Eve is sitting in a small restaurant in the Newcastle area at this time, facing Lotilan's eyes. It seems that some magical lighting pattern has been activated in this restaurant, and the polished floor tiles and ceiling seem to be glowing. , the restaurant is very bright, like a fluorescent lamp.

A round-faced man in a white apron and sleeves brought a large bowl of soup noodles to Eve, and then brought a plate full of sliced ​​braised beef.

The noodle soup was clear, with scallion leaves floating on it. Eve picked up the bowl and took a sip of the soup. The taste was mellow and delicious, it should be the taste of beef bone soup.

"Ha, this little girl is really impatient." The round-faced man brought another plate of sliced ​​fried meat and put it in front of her, and at the same time put a fork in her noodle bowl.

"Can I eat now?" Eve pointed to the fork and asked Lotilan.

"Haven't you already started eating?" The round-faced man took off his sleeves and stuffed them into a ball in his apron pocket. He sat next to the two of them.

Eve rubbed her nose with a smile, and was no longer polite, picked up the fork and started eating noodles.The taste of the noodles is similar to that of hand-rolled noodles, and they are more chewy. It is hard for Eve to imagine that she is eating a bowl of authentic noodle soup in an old castle, and she is still eating with a fork. This feels very weird.

The warm noodle soup and the cold beef made Eve feel exhausted after this meal. Since the two people around her were staring at her, she ate quite quietly.

"Eve, how old are you?" It was the round-faced man beside Luo Tilan who asked.

Eve bit off the noodles in her mouth, and slowly raised her head to look at the two, but the other's words actually stopped her from asking.

Maoqi registered her household registration back then, which happened to be the spring five years ago, and the registered age at that time was 14 years old. So, I should be 19 years old this year?

"Should be 19 years old." Eve replied.

The two glanced at each other with indescribable expressions on their faces. They were not doubting Eve's words, but simply felt that they were being played.
