There were nearly 2,000 children tested in Zhenbeicheng this time. After the final test, only eleven children had the qualifications of wizards.

It's just that these children have never learned knowledge at all. They can't even write their own names. Su Lun still needs to arrange culture teachers for these children to let them learn knowledge first. If they haven't even learned this knowledge, they will simply listen Can't understand and understand the basics of wizarding.

But Su Lun had no choice but to arrange teachers to teach these children. After completing the test in the North Wind Principality, Su Lun took these wingmen to San Firto City for testing.

San Firto City has a population of about 200,000. It is an out-and-out big city in this era. Compared with Zhenbei City, the education level in San Firto City is much higher. Although it has been cleaned several times, But there are still many nobles in San Firto City, and there are also many merchants here.

After several days of screening, more than 30 children with wizard qualifications were finally detected. Among them, more than a dozen children's family conditions are still very good. They are either nobles or wealthy businessmen, and they have been studying for a while. , can directly carry out the education of wizard apprentices.

However, this does not mean that the children of nobles or merchants have the advantage of becoming wizards. In fact, Su Lunshi has never liked dealing with nobles, because their birth environment made these people accustomed to intrigue, and they walked on the road of magic. The most important thing is focus and hard work.

Living in such a family environment, those children will also be infected with various problems under the influence of their ears and eyes. These children's minds are too complicated, and many of them are spoiled and spoiled, unable to adapt to the heavy study of wizards.

Among the many apprentices taught by wizards, apprentices from ordinary people are more likely to achieve success. For example, Hathaway, Hathaway was adopted by her mentor since she was a child. She has never been exposed to the nobles, nor mixed with other noble ladies. She is used to the superficiality, vanity, and arrogance of those noble ladies. So she's very dedicated to the wizarding path.

However, noble birth also has great advantages. They have a solid foundation and rich knowledge, and some of them have inherited blood blessings. It is perfectly possible to work as a warlock while becoming a wizard.

Those wizards who are not born very well, study hard on their own, maybe the speed of strength improvement will not be very fast, but the final achievements can at least reach high-level wizards. As for whether they can advance to the legendary field, no one dares to guarantee it.

After all, there are not a few geniuses who are blocked by the threshold of legend. There is a saying that the master leads the door, and the practice depends on the individual. For many people, the legend is the end, but in Su Lun's view, the legend is the real starting point.

For wizards, legends open the door to the multiverse! Only when you reach the legendary level can you travel between planes and leave this world.

On the southern plain, Tarbots Province, in a noble territory near the Correns Mountains in the northwest, a noble castle appeared on the hill.

A group of dusty knights stopped outside the fortress, which made the stationed guards grip their weapons nervously. This is just a little baron's castle, and all the guards add up to only a dozen or so people. It is said to be a castle, but in fact it is a solid stone house covering an area of ​​more than 300 square meters.

Looking at the appearance of the castle, it has a history of at least several hundred years. After a long period of peace, this kind of castle that is used more for military purposes than for residences is rarely inhabited by nobles in the south. In contrast, they prefer to live in their own prosperous estate.

But for some unknown reason, the baron family suddenly moved from the comfortable manor back to this cold and gloomy broken castle.

"Why are those people coming here?" The captain of the guard asked when he saw a group of knights running from a distance.

As the distance approached, he soon saw clearly the banner of the team of knights. The banner painted a sharp sword with a snake wrapped around it and a circle of thorns around it. This is Cromwell. Earl's coat of arms.

Soon this team of extremely sturdy riders gradually approached the castle, and he could feel the strong evil spirit on the other party even from a long distance away. As a retired veteran, he is too familiar with this breath.

"Quick, quick, take up your weapon and be alert!"

The head of the guard's face changed drastically. The group of knights seemed to be hostile. He immediately notified the soldiers to be alert, but his approach seemed completely useless. How could these lack of training and bullying guards be the opponents of this group of experienced knights? They were afraid that a single charge would be able to capture the castle.

"Stop, this is Lord Baron Brandt's territory, who are you, stop advancing immediately, or we will shoot arrows!"

As the chief guard's voice fell, more than a dozen guards around opened their bows and set up arrows, aiming at the group of knights, but seeing the power of the wooden bows in their hands, it was undoubtedly a dream to shoot through the iron armor of those knights.

A team of knights in front of them all wore gray cloaks, most of them covered their faces with hoods, and only the outline of their chins could be seen. The elite fighters of ordinary bows and arrows are basically ineffective against them.

At the same time, this group of knights is also equipped with long swords, hand crossbows, throwing knives, wrist guards, riding boots, etc. Even the most elite Rhodes City regular army that the captain of the guard has seen does not have such complete equipment, and it looks like It is expensive and sophisticated equipment. Some people use the flail, a heavy weapon that is difficult to control. This weapon requires very advanced operating skills. You must be a master to use this weapon, otherwise it is easy to hurt yourself.

"Captain, who are these knights? Are we really going to fight them?" A small guard next to him whispered.

"Look at the flag, these knights should be the knights of the Earl of Cromwell, but what are these elite knights doing here?" The head guard was also a little confused. Could it be that the king ordered to capture Baron Brandt? During this period of time, it has often been heard that nobles have been imprisoned, and the reason is naturally the rebellion. This is His Majesty the King cleaning up the nobles who are in the wrong line.

Could it be that Baron Brant is also the target of this cleanup? Thinking of this, the captain of the guard broke out in cold sweat.

The battle last year had completely shattered the confidence of these nobles in the south, and now even if these nobles wanted to resist, few people followed.

under the castle.

Knight Hunter in a gray cloak got off his horse. He put his hand on the sharp sword, feeling the cold metal of the long sword, and turned his head: "The demon is nearby. Be careful!"

"Have our reinforcements arrived?"

The burly man next to him shook his head, and said in a deep voice, "Not yet. But counting the time, it's almost time to arrive."

Although these knights are good, but to deal with creatures like demons, wizards and priests of the church are more professional, and demons have many spell-like abilities. It is not easy to deal with demons only relying on knights.

Along the way, they came across two villages that had been completely slaughtered, and even though they were running fast, they couldn't catch up with the demon.

Realizing that the situation seemed to be getting more and more serious, Captain Hunter's uneasiness became more and more intense, so he decisively sent someone to ask for help from the temple and the earl. It will mobilize people to come to support, and the earl will also send someone to help the wizard.

"Something's wrong!" Knight Commander Hunter said with a frown as he looked around.

The strong knight next to him glanced around and asked a little strangely: "Head, what's wrong there? Isn't this normal? Are you worried about those weak chickens on the castle? As long as you give an order, I can charge up Go up and tell those little chickens to be crushed to death."

"It's not those people, but it's too quiet here, with a strong atmosphere of negative energy!" Hunter said seriously.

"Yes, there are no insects chirping at all, and there are no birds around here? This is too strange!"

"Don't worry about it so much, first ask the lord here, he is the local snake here, he should help us!"

"Okay!" The knights soon finished their discussion, Knight Commander Hunter looked at the castle, and then waved to another young knight, "Hans, go and negotiate with them!"

"Ok, head!"

Inside the castle.

When the group of knights asked to enter the castle to meet Baron Brant, the captain of the guard was obviously relieved. As long as His Majesty the King did not clean it, the problem would not be a big problem. Baron Brant understands the situation, and it's all right.

As for the demons around here, isn't there a group of knights like Hunter? It's good to have them solve it. Thinking of this, he hurriedly sent someone into the castle to report to Baron Brant.

A few minutes later, a servant hurried over.

"What did you say? The baron refused them to enter? And asked them to leave immediately? Otherwise, we will launch an attack?"

The captain of the guard said incredulously, "Is he crazy or did I hear wrong?"

"Do you know who those people are below? A whole group of knights, led by a knight commander! You want us to attack this group of knights? Don't pull us together if you want to die!"

The servant said coldly: "You are your lord's guards, you should obey your lord's orders, and follow your lord's orders now!"

The chief guard's face was a little cloudy when he heard the words. This order was clearly intended to send them to death. Guards are just a job. His Excellency the Baron doesn't give him a lot of salary. Here he already has a decision in his heart.
