my age of magic

Chapter 233 33. Awakening Ceremony

The school army square in front of the mountain gate of Zhanzheng College, which could originally accommodate nearly [-] people, was already crowded with people. Countless people flocked to dozens of registration offices, forming a queue like a long queue.The first group of people who arrived at the Zhanzheng College had already lined up, walked past the magnificent stone-carved mountain gate in an orderly manner, and walked slowly and quietly to the top of the mountain on the tree-lined forest path.

When I stand on the square, I can really see the magnificent mountain gate on the Zhanzheng College Square. This huge Gothic-style round arched stone gate carved from granite is like three sharp swords piercing the sky. The entire stone gate is carved with more than 7000 angel reliefs that are the same size as an adult body. The engraved ground is a picture of angels shuttling through the clouds to participate in the battle of the gods. In the reliefs, you can also find dragons, giants, silver Pegasus, war Ancient trees and other powerful creatures in ancient legends.

People who haven't been in it will probably not understand how happy it is to be able to live in a corner and lean against the wall near the edge of the square in such a chaotic square. At least you don't have to worry about the people behind you. A pair of big hands that retreated, and I was stunned by the huge mountain gate for a while. Like other children who saw the arched stone gate for the first time, I also stared at the exquisite stone paintings and opened my mouth to show a dumbfounded expression. The image of a pig.

Tracy skillfully squeezed Alante aside and gave me half of the seat. I imitated her sideways body and leaned her shoulders against the stone wall. The wall is as comfortable as a queen bed.I was finally able to catch my breath, and Alente and Ifli were accompanied by a group of servants, who formed a human wall to protect us in it.

Taking advantage of this time, I looked around, and it turned out that it was not only my sister and Alente who were protected, but also three or four children who were about my age were on the other side of the little girl. They all seemed very curious about me, staring at me with rounded eyes, taking advantage of Alent and the others not noticing me, I made a playful face at them, which actually made several children grin at the same time stand up.

Allen told me that there are entourages who have gone to collect the admission tickets. These admission tickets can only be distributed free of charge on the same day, and only children of the Grimm Empire who are 12 years old and have not participated in the awakening ceremony are eligible to receive them. Of course, the ticket cannot enter the initial examination hall of the War College. Under the mountain gate, there are personnel from El City City Hall to check the residence certificates of these children. Only children from El City are accepted here.

I heard that El City spends a lot of resources on the annual awakening ceremony, so these city officials don't want foreign children to consume the benefits and resources that belong to the children of El City. The screening of qualification certificates is very strict. At this time, it was the peak time for entering the arena, which was why the school military field became so crowded.

It happened like this every year, and it wasn't the first time that Ellent led such a task in the family. He was quite experienced and brought his followers and younger sister to the square, quickly occupied a favorable position, and took the opportunity to rest here.At the same time, he sent the smartest entourage to line up to get the admission ticket. At this time, he still asked me: "Have you brought all the proof of residence, don't forget, if you didn't bring it, there is still time to go back and get it now!"

I patted the pocket on my chest, which contained the proof that Fanny had already prepared for me, and nodded to him.

Alan Te is a little curious. I don’t know why I am so interested in that stone-carved mountain gate. Our place is at least 200 meters away from that stone-carved mountain gate. Normal people standing here can’t see clearly the various things on it no matter what. Beautifully carved.He leaned over to me curiously and asked, "First time here?"

"No, when Fanny brought me here last year, I only remembered the overwhelming crowd and didn't pay attention to this arched gate. The building here is so magnificent!" I said my feelings.

Tracy put her hand on my shoulder and said to me: "I'll wait for you here, and you will be like those children in a while, and you need to line up to go in by yourself. The screening process may be very fast, don't rush A hasty choice, the questions of these tests are different every year, but in fact, it is nothing more than a test of magic talent, you have to think carefully before answering, the magic awakening ceremony, for every child of the empire You can only do it once in a lifetime!"

"Got it, if I come out too late, you can go first when you get bored, I know the way home!" I said to Tracy.

"Hmph, I really don't know where your self-confidence comes from! Well, I'll wait until the sun climbs above my head. I still have classes in school in the afternoon. If you haven't come out by then, you can find a way to go home by yourself! In addition, today In the afternoon, the Junior Warrior Academy of Zhanzheng Academy also began to recruit students, remember to go to another application form and go home, we have to get up early tomorrow morning, and take the entrance exam for the Junior Warrior Academy!" Tracy told me The action plan for these two days, it seems that she has given me full consideration. She still remembers that I said that I want to enter the Junior Warrior Academy of Zhanzheng Academy.

"Maybe you should come to Steins College. I promise you will spend your student days in a relaxed, happy and fun way. We also have our own club. Evely and I will introduce some new friends to you. They But I'm very curious about you!" Allen came over and continued to persuade me, and when I decided to take the Zhanzheng Academy, Allen kept trying to persuade me.

At this time, before I could figure out how to decline, someone came back through the tide of people like a fish swimming in the water. , has been promoted by Allen as his follower, at this time he held a few admission tickets in his hand, with a look of joy on his face.

"Okay, the admission ticket is back, don't delay, go in and test it, maybe you can catch up with lunch, hehe, recently I know that the fried meat in the restaurant is very good, Jia, it's rare for us Let's meet, let's have a taste together later?" Allen took the hand of his shy younger sister and walked directly in front.

Allen was wearing an exquisite aristocratic style dress with exquisite embroidery on the neckline, cuffs, and trousers. He was a young man who always kept himself very clean. At this time, he deliberately wore expensive clothes to walk among the crowd. His aristocratic demeanor was obvious, but strictly speaking he was not an aristocrat, he wasn't even an honorary knight, he was just taking advantage of the shadow of his family to increase his status.His attire was very useful for walking in the crowd at this time, and the ordinary poor people around him all stopped to make way for him.

"Cut! What kind of skill is it! It's worth showing a smug face?" Tracy said directly behind Allente.

"You don't understand that, do you! Xiaoxi, do you know how much time we can save by doing this?" Alent said with a grunt.

"That's right, it's not like wearing this to go out and bully people. What's wrong with wearing it?" Ivli's family is a family of knights. Although the status of knights is not high, they barely stepped into the threshold of nobility. He was also helping Alan Te to speak.

Tracy and Alant quarreled as soon as they met, and they would always quarrel like this over and over again. Probably anything was the reason for their quarrel, and sometimes Evelyn would help Alant to say a few words, but I always feel that Ellen and Tracy have enough tacit understanding with each other. They always have different views on the same topic. In such a quarrel, they came to the mountain gate.

The younger brothers and sisters around Ellen started to look at the various exquisite reliefs on the stone pillars in amazement, showing shocking expressions, but I looked up at this magnificent building with a calm face. Under the gate, I feel like a tiny ant, and this gate was not designed for us humans, maybe it was built for some giants in ancient times.

"Hey, let me say Jia, sometimes I really don't understand you. Didn't you say that you saw this gate for the first time? Aren't you surprised by the reliefs on the stone pillar?" Allen stood suspiciously Be there for me and ask me.

"..." I didn't know how to explain it to him. When I got it, I just stood in the corner to rest, and I looked at the door from the inside to the outside several times. My angel, but I don't want to explain it this way. When I find that I am a little different from other people, I will also be proud of my special place.But when I find that I am different from others, I will become extra cautious. I don't know what is wrong, and it will arouse the interest of some people I can't afford, and put myself in danger.

With the continuous improvement of magic perception, the sensitivity of my five senses has also improved. My eyesight does not show anything special in the orc world, but in the human world, it becomes exceptionally good, a lot The academy is very willing to accept children with better eyesight and train them to become rangers.

Speaking of which, I actually have great potential as a ranger.

I stood in the line and walked towards the stone arch with the crowd. There were a total of ten inspectors working at the arched stone door. They were busy with expressionless faces, and sweat slowly dripped down their foreheads, temples, and chins. , could not slow down their movements at all, the crowd of testers was slowly penetrating into the gate of Zhanzheng Academy like an hourglass.

My body is well-developed. I am a rare tall man standing in the crowd, holding an admission ticket in my hand. Behind me is Ellent's timid sister who is as timid as a mouse. I could hear Ellent's urging, and he didn't even say please, because he knew I didn't need it.The little girl finally escaped from the protection of her brother's wings, and she was very new to everything around her. She opened her big eyes and looked curiously at the people queuing up beside her.

Finally walked into the most famous school in El City, and saw a group of senior seniors forming five teams of us in the courtyard gate, and scattered them in different directions. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, I was separated from Alente's sister and put into different teams. I followed the flow of people and couldn't see her.

Many students from the Zhanzheng College stood on both sides of the road, commenting on us children with great interest. Almost all of them were wearing high deerskin boots, both men and women were wearing leather battle skirts, and a shirtless upper body. There is a leather vest with sleeves, a thin piece of iron inlaid on the chest, and a thick Roman dagger hanging from the waist. Most of these people are boys, but there are also many girls among them.

Girls in Ayr City also have plenty of options, and there are also girls' colleges in Ayr City, where the study environment is more relaxed.

The War Academy is a place dedicated to cultivating fighters and magicians. Girls come here to become fighters. Some professions in the Warrior Academy are also very suitable for girls to study.

The dark corners of these corridors in the campus are covered with moss.These mosses have accumulated year after year and day after day, and now the gaps in these stone roads are covered with green, purple, and earth-colored mosses, and some small yellow flowers bloom on some mosses. The lawn on the side is neatly manicured, like a green carpet. These green blankets spread all the way to the distant woods. On the lawn, students in twos and threes are sitting and resting under the shade of the trees. They seem to be used to this scene, showing us a kind smile.

I followed the flow of people to an auditorium, and it wasn't long before it was my turn to walk into the auditorium, and I realized that it was a large empty classroom, which should be a place for training fighting skills, and the whole room was close enough to each other. Thousands of square meters, the ground is covered with a very solid and wear-resistant oak floor. The bright paint makes the floor reflect gorgeous light. There are many straw mats stacked in the corner of the room, which are probably collected temporarily.

There is a desk in the center of the big classroom. An old man is sitting on a chair behind the desk. There is almost nothing on the desk in front of him. People come in and go out one after another. Some are happy, and some are full. frustrated.I can't hear what they are saying, the distance is too far, if Katerina is here, I can definitely...

This test was conducted alone, the examiner barely moved, he asked me to sit down opposite, his eyes were very gentle, and he said to me: "Child, relax, don't be nervous, you must be careful about gains and losses. You know, it is not an easy thing to become a magician. Before that, we old guys will give you children five tests. If you can pass these tests one by one, you will have the right to participate in magic. The right to the awakening ceremony."

The old magician then asked me, "Can you hear me?"

I nodded honestly and said, "Yes."

The old magician nodded deeply to me, and then shouted: "Pass!" He bowed his head and added a big five to my application form, and nodded to me with a smile, indicating that I can leave.

At this time, I didn't even understand how I passed the first test in a daze, and still got a full score, but I didn't do anything!The teaching assistant on the side has already read aloud the name of the next person entering the venue, and urged me to get the application form and leave quickly.

As for the items in the table, the rest of the options are blank, except for the rating of magic perception: a big five points are written.

As I walked I wondered exactly how the old magician was testing my magical senses.It wasn't until I had walked out of the testing hall that I realized it.It turns out that when I was sitting on the chair just now, I was actually caught in the time-stasis magic cast by the old magician. The question that the old magician asked me just now was actually asking me in the time-stasis state, and I didn’t feel it at all. Without realizing it, the moment he asked the question, he blurted out an answer: "Yes!"

So I successfully passed the first test and followed the flow of people to the second test site...
