Chapter 152 Western Fantasy 17 Elemental Blessing
"The teacher just gave everyone a brief introduction. I believe that all the freshmen should have a certain understanding of our selection process. I won't waste any more time here and take up everyone's class time."
"The selection is open to all students of the academy. Once you join the Holy See, you will be divided into two groups: the Knights, whose duty is to quell unrest and protect the safety of the people. The second is the clergy of the temple, such as myself."
The familiar robes and attire made the genius teacher respect and give way to him. As soon as that person appeared in the classroom, he was recognized by the students.
Because they had been warmed up in advance, they did not show any surprise. Instead, they sat upright and listened carefully to the messenger's speech, even though his tone was calm and even more boring than the dean's chanting.
It had been a long time since Lu Huai had seen anyone from the Temple of Light. When he saw them again, he had moved to a new place and came to Belward, facing them in a neat uniform.
Compared to the awkward feeling of having my heart in my throat at that time, it is obviously much more comfortable to communicate with each other on an equal footing using a podium as a link in Yatuo City.
And he was not as scared as he was at the beginning.
Jon, who was standing beside him, made no secret of his interest. He was so energetic that even ten bulls couldn't pull him back. As soon as the instructor finished speaking and he heard that seats could be changed freely, he quickly pulled Lu Huai to grab the seat in the first row that originally belonged to the man with glasses.
The entire elf was now sitting upright, completely different from his usual relaxed state.
"Joe, do you want to go?"
Lu Huai poked his arm.
The elf nodded like a rattle: "Yes! I think joining the Church is cool, and we can get more protection and live a better life."
That being said, all the main quests were related to world power, and he naturally wouldn't let go of an opportunity that would allow him to rapidly grow his knight profession.
But he didn't know whether Lu Huai also wanted to go, and he couldn't force him to change his mind.
So she patted his shoulder in return, pretending to be relaxed and unconcerned: "Lu, what do you think?"
Jon was concentrating intently just now, wanting to write down every word the messenger said in his little notebook, but now his state was completely different from the beginning.
His eyes, as bright as the blue sky, stared at his companion, and his eagerness for an answer was obvious.
The words "he wants to go with him" are written all over his face, which makes people imagine how depressed this guy would be if he said he was not interested.
Lu Huai turned his body back and said bluntly: "I'm thinking about it. I'm a little tempted."
Qiao En hugged Lu Huai happily.
Vera, who was sitting at the back, squinted her eyes and made a "pop" sound like a bubble gum popping, like an interesting reminder.
Lu Huai felt something was wrong and he silently pushed away the person who showed no restraint at all.
At first, Vera was still supporting the pairings between him and various beautiful girls, wishing that her ideal beauty could be paired with all equally matched individuals.
Lately, he rarely mentioned the matter, and his eyes even darted between him and the blond elf, occasionally teasing them, making them both uncomfortable.
She would cast a kind look at her from time to time, looking like a supporter of the marriage, which made her deskmate Osta feel a little uneasy.
That guy is a devout Christian, and he cannot accept relationships between people of the same sex.
In other words, if they really fall in love with each other, he will have to take a detour and may not even ask to be moved to a different location to stay away.
Lu Huai shook his head and sighed, wondering why he had so many random thoughts.
How could it be possible for him and Jon?
Jon is just a warm... friend...
He held his forehead and couldn't help but reflect on why the thought of the opposite side made him think of the golden retriever that pounced on people and wouldn't let go.
A good relationship can be presented in this way.
But he seemed to have gotten used to relying on Jon and having him accompany him in his life.
I warned myself countless times that we were destined to part ways, and that a short pain was better than a long one. But in the end, after my determination faded, I softened my heart again and again, unwilling to push people away.
Never mind... just take it one step at a time...
Perhaps unless they really drew their swords, Lu Huai would find it difficult to bear the pain and pull away.
The preaching was over at this time.
Feeling his arm being shaken, Lu Huai turned his head away.
Jon enthusiastically showed him his notes and handed him the pen, while he talked about the advantages and disadvantages of the position.
"Lu, do you want to join the Knights or be a Divine Servant? The Messenger just said that both jobs have the same effect and can be stamped with the internship stamp for us."
"This way, our first grade has completed the third grade's tasks ahead of time. Just thinking about it makes me feel great!"
"Knights might not be the right fit for me."
Lu Huai took the pen with a smile, tapped on the record about physical fitness requirements without touching it, and then turned the pen towards the divine servant.
“If I had to choose one, I would probably consider it.”
Jon pondered for a moment and replied, "Okay!"
Lu Huai burst out laughing.
Is this guy really considering this? He knows that even if he doesn't become a Holy Son, he is still a good candidate for the Mage Tower.
The God's Envoy is too unworthy, and the Knight does not meet the goal of changing jobs.
I didn't expect that there was such a connection before I made the choice.
I can only say that with such obsession, it’s no wonder that he was willing to come back to save the world later?
The temple has always been decisive in its actions. After the notice was made, those who are interested will be asked to go and test the depth three days later.
However, due to this "special mission", the academy almost stopped all classes that day, just to provide the best students to the Holy See in the first round of selection of the Son of God.
The Vatican gladly accepted this good intention and, in reciprocity, agreed to increase the proportion of funds sponsored to the academy.
The white-haired magician dean stroked his beard and laughed until midnight, but he did not slack off at all. He ordered all students to conserve their energy and face this selection with a full spirit.
Infected by the atmosphere from top to bottom, the people around, even Xu Rui and his group of brothers who were just trying to get good grades, all joined the camp of preparing for the exam honestly.
Because both the theory and practice of temple selection need to be assessed.
Suddenly, the training room and library were packed with people every day, and the orderly state was like Lu Huai's Spring Festival travel rush in this world.
Lu Huai's heart couldn't help but panic.
That night, he couldn't sleep again.
This time, Wu Meng was also swept into someone's world. He was a little surprised and wondered whether the dark god's condition had recovered to a new stage.
Sino seemed a little unhappy, and immediately came up to him and asked, "Why didn't you give me a chance to find you in all these days?"
Lu Huai pointed at him: "From the looks of it, it seems like you don't need this opportunity."
The god with the same black hair as him said in a resentful tone, "So you have completely forgotten about me?"
"Look, it's not me who worked hard to recover and then looked for an opportunity to find you. Maybe one day Lance will trick me into going dormant and I might not even be remembered!"
Lu Huai also understood his inner needs, and quickly appeased him, explaining the reason clearly.
"Yes, I was wrong, I was wrong."
"But I really didn't suffer from insomnia on purpose. I've been under a lot of pressure lately..." The little succubus lowered her head, and her voice became smaller and smaller as she spoke. She looked timid like a lop-eared rabbit with drooping ears.
After all, she is still a young girl. Although she has grown up and her beauty is gradually revealed, her pretty face is still fresh and tender, more elastic than the bamboo shoots that emerge in early spring.
Seno was a little touched by the cuteness. He covered his mouth and turned his head to the side, pretending that nothing had happened and he was still angry, but in fact his anger had already subsided for the most part.
He cursed inwardly a hundred times, "No succubus is a good thing," but softened his tone: "What's wrong? Is it because the Temple of Light is selecting new members?"
"Yeah." Lu Huai nodded.
"Don't be afraid, you will definitely be chosen."
Seno hugged Lu Huai, a move he had secretly learned from Jon in a corner unknown to the little succubus.
Lu Huai was obviously a little surprised.
But he wouldn't explain the key points, instead he took advantage of the other person's lack of reaction to start comforting him:
"It's just a selection, and I guess they'll just use the same old tricks again."
When Seno mentioned this, Lu Huai suddenly thought of Amodia.
It is said that this Pope also selected this genius through the method of elemental blessing. It is said that he was just a fisherman's child at that time, and he did not expect to reach the top in this way.
Many people were dissatisfied, and even at a time when theocracy was not stable, they rose up to fight against him and despised the light.
Yet, he achieved great military exploits despite his humble beginnings, and even the current splendor of the temple is due to the figure of this Pope.
"What are you thinking about?" Seno noticed his distraction and poked his face.
"It's difficult to hide it from Lance himself. These elements are not that difficult to deal with before they have the blessing of the godhead."
His embrace almost turned into a hug, and his warm arms stayed on Lu Huai's waist with full presence.
Lu Huai instinctively recalled the scenes of receiving the power, and was filled with shame and anger.
I resented someone in my heart who was already a god but still set the body temperature.
"Xiao Lu Huai, remember, I will always help you as long as you need me."
Lu Huai didn't know what to say.
Although what Seno said was very touching, he didn't really want to go to a place full of "enemies" who would threaten his life at any time.
Even if the conditions were favorable, who could promise him that the divine light in Pope Amodia's eyes would not burn him to ashes?
But he owed it to Seno, so he had to do it no matter what.
Time flies, and the next day comes as soon as I open my eyes.
Lu Huai also witnessed an unprecedented grand scene.
The matter was of such importance that Pope Amodeo was absent due to a routine training tour, but the cardinals were present for half of the time.
Because the venue needed to accommodate teachers and students of all grades, the principal used magic to clear out all surrounding objects in the martial arts arena in advance, just to make the selection fair and open.
Many new and even old students witnessed an unforgettable spectacle.
The azure sky contrasts with the ancient, arched, and spacious buildings, and the ground beneath your feet is a darker color than the walls.
In the midst of such an extremely magnificent scene, as a tiny speck of dust contained within it, it is almost impossible to tell which is farther away, the sky or the earth.
At the call, countless light elements quickly transformed into a holy white bird with wings spread and soaring, hovering in the sky, and the chirping it made was incomparably crisp.
Under the gaze of the college students, the white bird's eyes, shining like colorful gems, fixed on a certain place, and before everyone could find the lucky person through reasoning, it swooped down swiftly.
Then, surprisingly, the White Bird, who had been so decisive just now, was in a dilemma in front of the two people.
It seems that it is impossible to tell which of the two is better and whom he likes more in an instant.
This shouldn't happen!
The others were staring at the graceful flying figure of the white bird with great interest, unaware of the situation the two objects that made it linger were facing.
Xu Rui stood with his arms folded, his lips pressed into a straight line.
He actually always knew that he was more suited to fire magic than light magic, and his plan did not include gaining anything through the Temple of Light.
But when he saw that the piece of sticky candy next to Lu Huai, whom he hated so much, still had its eyes closed peacefully, with an innocent look as if it didn't know that it was about to get lucky, he became furious.
Compared to him, Lu Huai next to him seemed to be struggling much more, his gently curved eyebrows were twisted uneasily, and his posture was not as comfortable as the blonde elf next to him.
Obviously, there is no need to discuss the current situation.
Judging from their appearance alone, the elf with blond hair and blue eyes, and the human with black hair and black eyes, both appeared within the selection range. Not only the students of the academy, but even the presiding cardinal felt that the former was obviously more qualified to be selected.
Black breeds sin and pollutes the soul. How can such a color belong to the being who will soon be named "Son of God" and hold the special status of an agent?
But what happened really shocked everyone.
A fierce golden light flashed by, and everyone hurriedly closed their eyes to resist it. When they regained consciousness, they found that the choice had been made.
The divine bird circled around and the olive branch it was holding fell on the head of a human being.
