To become a guard, you need not only to be loyal to Hale, but also to be physically fit. The former Donald does not have, but can be pretended. The latter Donald's attributes are 25 Strength, 25 Constitution, and 20 Sharp.

With James' introduction, Donald successfully signed up for the soldier. Tomorrow morning I will go to the Chengwei Mansion for a quiz.

There is not much time left for them.

……

Chengwei Mansion School Grounds.

Dozens of figures stood all over the school yard, standing or sitting, making a lot of noise. Among them were civilians and poor people, most of them were dirty and muddy, and there were very few clean clothes.

A moment later, a strong man in a standard uniform, followed by soldiers, walked up to the group.

"Silence!"

The men got up one after another, stood still and remained quiet, and looked at the strong man.

Behind him, a ray of light gradually fell from the top of the cavern.

It's dawn.

It is the place that every resident dreams of, the aristocratic district.

In the center of the cave is a sinkhole, hundreds of meters in diameter, with a drop of 100 meters of trapped rock wall. The aristocratic quarter was built under a sinkhole, and it was the only place in Hale where light could be found.

In the eyes of everyone, the strong man said: "Run 10 laps around the school field, and those who finish will enter the second test." ”

They were taken to the starting point by the soldiers to start running, and the school field, which is about 300 meters a circle, is not enough for many people to complete a lap. The line started pulling apart. Some of those who tried to run short were dragged away by the soldiers, and the cries became farther and farther away.

Donald was undoubtedly in first place, and he had no intention of holding back, completing 10 laps at a constant pace and standing straight back in the center of the school field.

His breathing was still steady, and most of them hadn't completed five laps yet.

Donald was noticed by everyone.

Half an hour later, the strong man didn't wait any longer, gathered the remaining two dozen people, and drove out the rest of the people who had not finished running.

"You're lucky enough to pass Test One, but don't think you're going to get through it. The second test is ......" The strong man paused slightly, and said fiercely: "Hold on to my hands for a minute, and if you want to retreat, you can roll now." ”

Despite the sweat of Venus, no one wants to back down. For them, being a soldier is enough to eat. A beating is nothing.

"Good."

The brawny man stripped off his shirt, revealing his muscular upper body, and hooked his fingers at a young man.

The young man stepped forward, shouting and punching without a move. The strong man smiled contemptuously, didn't look at the fist, and kicked out and kicked the young man in the calf.

There was a soft click, and the leg bone broke from it. The young man staggered forward before rolling and falling, clutching his shaking calves and screaming miserably.

"Next." The strong man looked at the crowd.

The crowd retreated in fear. The law of the poor people: Injury equals death.

The bones are broken, and this man won't survive this winter.

In the midst of this, Donald stepped out calmly.

The strong man showed satisfaction and flapped his fists. Seeing that Donald didn't take the initiative to attack, he sneered and swung out with a strong fist.

Syllable!

Donald caught his fist with ease, twisted his hand and went around behind the strong man, kicking the ball of his foot lightly in the crook of his leg.

The strong man's knee fell and smashed into the sand. He tried to resist, but the pain in his arm suddenly intensified, and he couldn't help but lean forward and fall down.

Donald tried to stop, but noticed some figures on the edge of the schoolyard.

So he raised his leg and stepped on the back of the strong man's head, so that his face was pressed against the rough sand.

Everything happened in a daze, and everyone watched in a daze.

"Throw in the towel?" Donald asked.

The brawny man's reply was a baring neck and a beastly roar.

"If you are beaten, you must admit it."

A voice came from the slopes.

Donald stepped back, his gaze calm.

The city guard officer walked in the crowd of his subordinates.

Even if he was unwilling, the strong man could only get up with a disgraced face and honestly shout that the chief was silent.

The city guard looked at Donald with a calm face with interest and said, "You are also so cruel to your future companions? ”

"He is my enemy in battle, and I will not spare my hand to the enemy."

"Well said." The city guard officer praised it, and his interest was even stronger. "I ask you, what do you think of Hale City."

"My homeland."

"Why do you want to be a soldier?"

"Defend your homeland."

The city guard straightened Donald's collar and expressed his appreciation: "Very good, what is your name." ”

"Donald, sir."

"You're a soldier?" The city guard officer sighed.

"I was a cadet."

"Then you ......" the city guard officer thought for a moment, deliberately placing this young man who was very similar to himself when he was younger.

"Sir. A soldier at Entrance 3 had fallen to his death last night, and I was going to send him there. The strong man suddenly spoke.

The city guard officer showed a hint of displeasure on his face, then disappeared, and asked Donald lightly, "Do you have any opinions?" ”

"Obey the commander's arrangement."

"Good." The city guard officer was as satisfied with Donald's attitude as he was with the strong man. Coldness glanced at him: "I don't want anyone to be irreparably injured. You know, it takes a lot of time for a person to grow up. ”

"Yes, sir." The strong man bowed his head in response.

The city guard officer and the group behind him left, and the strong man who had achieved his goal did not want to see Donald again, so he waved his hand and called the soldiers to take Donald away.

Donald receives an antiquated soldier's uniform that has clearly been worn. On the day he became a soldier, he was assigned to a high platform to be stationed.

The soldiers there certainly wouldn't remember what a pauper looked like, and Donald blended in easily, especially when the rest of the team secretly let them know what was going on on the schoolyard.

Barton: That's the name of the insatiable captain.

He didn't know that his demeanor was already well known to a group of people. In the afternoon, as is customary, he left the entrance and secretly went to the Rose Tavern to look for a woman. As a result, when going upstairs, I accidentally fell and fell on the steps. By the time the tavernkeeper lifted him up, the poor fellow was out of breath.

Everyone thought it was an accident, and the Chengwei Mansion didn't track it down, let alone make a noise. Everyone present could see that he had fallen on his own, and that he should have been stationed at the entrance at this time.

……

"Yesterday's little guy just went to Entrance 3. He can be the captain. ”

In an office covered with woolen carpets and bookcases full of books, the city guard sat behind his desk and closed his eyes. When he learned that at this time, he didn't care about promoting Donald to an official.

"He's only been a guard for a day." His assistant stood at the table, his tone embarrassed.

The city guard officer didn't look at him, and played with a glass of crystal water: "How come I don't know that Hale City has an additional rule that the longer you are in office, the higher your position?" ”

"I understand the sir......"

……

"Now you're the head of these soldiers." The assistant came to Entrance 3 and informed Donald of the appointment, then whispered, "If I were you, I would teach these subordinates a lesson." ”

Most of the nine soldiers standing not far away showed reluctance and jealousy.

"I will." Donald nodded, and secretly handed a small piece of gold to his assistant's palm.

The latter left satisfied. He knew why the city guards were paying attention to him.

Donald turned to look down at the hole. Now, nothing can stop them.
