Chapter 135: Choice
It was just noon at the moment, after Du Dian came back to have lunch, he came to the scattering training ground to continue practicing.
In the afternoon, the young instructor came to see Du Dian, a little surprised, but didn't say anything. After watching his archery practice, he pointed out a few small flaws in his posture, and left again.
Returning to the dormitory in the evening, Du Dian immediately picked up the law books borrowed from the library to review.
the next day.
Du Dian got up on time, found the young instructor as soon as possible after breakfast, and asked him for leave.
"About another day off today?" The young instructor frowned and said a little displeased: "Although you are an official hunter, the current skill training has a time limit, so you can't neglect it. Yesterday, it was an exception to allow you to take a day off. What's going on today?"
Seeing this, Du Di'an knew that it wouldn't work if he didn't explain the reason, and said: "I went to the trial court yesterday to recruit the apprentice priests, and I have passed the first test. Today is the official test."
"Recruitment of apprentice priests?" The young instructor was stunned for a moment. Every time the apprentice priests were filled in the trial court, it was a major event. Yesterday was full of storms.
The young instructor looked at Du Dian suspiciously, and said, "Have you studied the law? To pass the examination of the probationary priest in the trial court, it is not necessary to have a little knowledge of the law, but to be proficient, even if many have obtained the law school graduation certificate. It is difficult for people to meet the requirements.”
"I'll try." Du Di'an was not too sure.
The young instructor thought for a while, and then said, "Okay, I wish you success."
Du Di was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, instructor!"
"Go, go, go back early." The young instructor waved.
Du Dian immediately turned and left, came to the headquarters to find a carriage, and went straight to Puth Avenue.
Pusi Avenue is located in the central block of the prosperous West District of the business district. The land price here can buy a small building in a small town outside the suburb of the business district.
People living in the central area of the West District are either rich or expensive. There are elegant and high-end shops everywhere. Everywhere on the roadside, a lady can be seen holding children and pets, going in and out in front of various jewelry stores.
The carriage was parked in front of the courthouse on Puss Avenue. Unlike other adjacent streets, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and it was deserted. In the center of the street was a towering building, about 30 meters high, like a entrenched black The behemoth, the upper part of the building is shaped like a horned gourd, and on the horn at the top is a huge "cross" sign!
The cross, in the meaning of the Holy See of Light, represents purification!
Along the way, Du Di'an saw some court personnel in white robes, holding law books in their hands, reading while walking, focused and serious.
"I'm here to take the exam." Du Dian walked down the steps to the solemn and secluded courthouse, took out the card, and guarded the courthouse at the door.
The young court guard glanced at the card indifferently and nodded, "Please come in."
Du Di'an entered the courthouse. The lobby on the first floor was very spacious, but the light was projected from the dome. Du Di'an looked up and was actually irradiated by the white crystal-like objects embedded in the dome. Surprised.
While he was looking at it, a white silk-robed waitress came over and said gently, "You are here for the exam, please come with me."
Under her leadership, Du Di'an came to the side hall of the hall. There is a cathedral-like hall with rows of seats in it, and an independent podium in front of it. At this moment, there are more than a dozen figures sitting in the hall, all following Most of the boys and girls of his age are gorgeously dressed in bright colors, and the fabrics are mainly silk. Only two or three people's clothes are linen and wool.
In front of the independent podium in front, a few tables were moved over. At this moment, there was no one behind the table, and a few white-robed waitresses were waiting beside him.
Du Di'an randomly found a remote seat,
After a while, I suddenly smelled Jenny's scent, and I was overjoyed. After waiting for a long time, I saw Jenny wearing a broken green silk dress.
Du Dian immediately stood up and waved to her.
Jenny was choosing a seat, and suddenly noticed Du Di'an, her eyes lit up, she walked over quickly, and sat on the seat next to Du Di'an.
"You came so early." Jenny said in a low voice after sitting down.
Du Dian laughed: "The early bird gets the worm."
"What about the early bug?" Jenny asked slyly.
Du Di'an was choked and said with a smile: "Eat by birds."
Jenny snickered and asked, "Are you ready?"
"Well." Du Dian said confidently: "As long as I can take the test, I will guarantee a full score."
Jenny chuckled.
While the two were chatting and laughing, other candidates came one after another. At about nine o'clock in the morning, the nearly five-meter-high gate behind the examination room was slowly pushed by two waiters and closed tightly.
At this time, a small door in front of the examination room opened, and four figures in white robes with gold trimmings came out, two men and two women, the youngest were around thirty years old, with expressions Cold and serious, unsmiling.
"Silence!" One of the five-year-old old men said coldly.
The venue fell silent.
"The exam time is one hour." The old man in the age of 50 beckoned to the maid next to him, who handed him an hourglass and placed it on the table. The old man placed his palm on the hourglass, looked around the crowd, and said, "I hope you will remember what a priest should have. If I see someone trying to cheat, I will be dealt with according to law and imprisoned for one month!"
The dozens of people in the audience looked at each other in dismay, not daring to make a sound.
Du Di'an tilted his head and winked at Jenny.
Jenny was in a nervous mood, and when she saw Du Dian's funny expression, she couldn't help showing a little smile.
After a while, the exam begins.
The hourglass turned upside down, and the grains of sand slowly passed.
Du Di'an looked at the test paper in his hand, and quickly answered with a quill. He had seen many of the test questions above, and he wrote the answer after a little thought. However, there are still some exam questions that give him a headache. He just thinks that he has seen them vaguely, but he can't remember them clearly. After all, his legal knowledge is completely from the special training of scavengers, and he spends a little time to learn every day. is not solid.
"If you are a juridical person, where do you think the law needs to be improved?"
Du Di'an looked at the last question and raised his eyebrows slightly. This question tests the overall understanding of the knowledge of the law. If the content of the answer is the law that has already been implemented, or the law that has been abolished in the early days, it will naturally be exposed. His knowledge of the law is not comprehensive enough.
Du Di'an thought for a moment, but still decided to write: "If I am a legal person, the first article will abolish slave status and noble status. If you want to achieve equality before the law, you must achieve the value of life. Everyone is equal, there is no distinction between noble and inferior!"
"Time's up!" At this time, the old man in front of Pentecost shouted loudly.
Du Dian immediately closed the pen.
Jenny, who was next to her, also quickly wrote and looked at him. The two made eye contact and immediately understood that the other party had finished.
After a while, the test papers were collected.
"Everyone, please go back, come over in three days and wait for the notice." The five-year-old old man said.
The door at the back was pulled open, and the others left one after another.
Du Di'an said to Jenny, "Shall I take you back?"
Jenny's face was slightly red and she said, "My little aunt sent me here today. She was waiting for me outside."
Du Dian understood and smiled: "See you in three days."
"Um."
After the two said goodbye to each other at the gate, Du Di'an watched as Jenny was led away by a lady in snow-white velvet, and left in a spacious and exquisite noble carriage. Then he retracted his gaze and entered his carriage to leave.
After returning to the Hunter's headquarters, Du Dian saw that it was still early and returned to the scattering field to continue practicing.
When the young instructor saw him, he inquired about his exam status, and finally told him not to be distracted, and to focus on his job as a hunter.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Du Dian greeted the young instructor in advance, and after having breakfast that morning, he left the Hunter headquarters and drove to the courthouse.
There were dozens of other people who came to wait for the result on the same day. When Du Dian arrived there, it was still early. He didn't wait long when he saw Jenny's carriage coming from the end of the street. A moment later, the car door opened, and Jenny stepped out of the carriage with the help of an accompanying Bron family knight. She looked up and looked for a moment in the crowd, and soon saw Du Di'an's figure. .
"You came so early." Jenny stepped forward and said with a smile.
Du Dian blinked, "Early hunters have birds to eat."
Jenny suddenly thought of what she said last time, and couldn't help but chuckle.
The two chatted in a low voice. After a while, the door of the trial house opened, and a serious old man stepped forward and read out the names. Anything that was read out meant passing the exam and joining the establishment of the trial priests. .
"Jenny Bloom!" the old man read.
When Jenny heard her name, she breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest with a look of joy.
"Du Di'an!" The old man said again.
Du Dian also breathed a sigh of relief. When he submitted the answer sheet, his heart was hanging, because he knew that he had no confidence in the answers he had written on several questions.
"Great!" Jenny clapped her hands in surprise when she heard Du Dian's name.
Seeing her happy appearance, Du Di'an felt warm in her heart, and said with a smile, "We will work together in the future."
Jenny blushed slightly and said, "Then are you going to be a scavenger?"
Du Di'an was stunned when he heard the words, and couldn't help thinking of the desolate and cruel picture outside the wall. Now, he has obtained the status of a trainee priest. As long as he is willing, he can completely break away from the hunter establishment and live the life of a trainee priest, or be an ordinary person. Like Pete and other senior executives at Scavenger Headquarters, most of them were retired hunters.
Thinking of this, he hesitated a little. No one likes to live a precarious life of killing. Even a high-level hunter is still in danger of dying outside the wall.
Seeing Du Dian suddenly fell into contemplation, Jenny suddenly realized that this was a choice to decide the future, hesitated for a moment, and said: "If the outside of the wall is too dangerous, as my father said, I think you should not go. ?"
Du Di'an looked up at her, and there was a momentary urge in his heart to agree, but in the end he shook his head slightly and said, "I don't want to just live in the wall."
Jenny stared at him, suddenly smiled, and said, "I knew that I didn't see the wrong person."
Seeing that she was not angry, Du Di'an was relieved, smiled and said, "I can't see the wrong person either."
Afterwards, the two received their apprentice priest status medal together. When receiving it, they also learned their official reporting date and basic criteria for apprentice priest from the old man's mouth.
This basic principle is like the purpose of the Tribunal. There are three main principles: fairness, justice, and openness!
"I'll go back first." Jenny waved to Du Di'an and got into the carriage.
Du Di'an watched her go away, returned to his carriage, and set off to return to the Hunter's Headquarters, but he thought in his heart that the duties of this apprentice priest were the same as ordinary workers. They needed to work eight hours a day in the trial court. In the future, they will be promoted to senior apprentice priests. At that time, they do not need to report to the trial office every day. They only need to accompany the priests they belong to and assist them in handling legal cases in various areas.
"Eight hours. In this case, the hunter's training will not have that much time."
Du Di'an frowned slightly and murmured: "However, if you don't want to be promoted to a priest or a senior apprentice priest, you don't have to report every day. In that case, you will always be a junior apprentice priest and can only do miscellaneous tasks in the trial."
"However, all I want is the status of an apprentice priest. In this case, there is a layer of protection for life inside the wall, and it is also convenient for future alchemy activities."
Thinking of this, Du Dian immediately decided that the hunters are still the main ones. After all, the speed at which the hunters earn gold coins is far unmatched by priests, with high risks and high rewards.
After returning to the Hunter headquarters, Du Dian came to the scattering training ground and continued to practice.
