Extraordinary Puppet Master

The banyan tree checked it and temporarily remembered the matter.

When the knight's retinue knew that the four of them were wandering mercenaries seeking a place to stay, they said casually: "We don't have much work for you in the village, but tomorrow happens to be the baptismal day that happens every 24 years. You can go to Notre Dame Cathedral in the nearby town. Take a chance.”

Banyan Tree suddenly understood that every forty-eight months, that is, four Sixth Era years, adults from various villages would rush to nearby towns with their children aged ten to fourteen who had met the extraordinary qualifications.

The Marist Society will help these children awaken their bloodline to become extraordinary beings, and then conduct a year-long education.

After a year, a few outstanding students directly joined the Marist Order, while others were sent home directly.

They are often recruited by nobles, and those who do not want to be loyal to the nobles become wild mercenaries.

The Marist order established local Notre Dame churches in all towns in the southern part of the Old World, but the number of Notre Dame churches varied in different towns.

Normally, Notre Dame is very quiet with nothing going on, but on the baptismal day, it will get busy after the arrival of a new batch of awakened teenagers.

Some places will recruit wild supernatural beings as temporary workers if they are short of manpower, and this is obviously the case at Notre Dame Cathedral in Folsomland.

After chatting for a while, the guard told them that the nearest town of Sanger was less than thirteen kilometers away from here. If they traveled faster, they might be able to get there before the sun goes down.

After hearing this, Rongshu immediately thanked him. After bidding farewell to his retinue, the four of them set out on the road again.

On this baptismal day, there were no qualified children in the village who needed to awaken their bloodline, so there was no need for the villagers to worry about the children's extraordinary problems.

Not long after leaving the village, Banyan Tree took out a map of the Fulsong Territory and looked at it. The map was obtained from Thorin. It marked the city of Fulsong, more than 40 towns, and more than 500 villages.

After watching for a while, Rongshu confirmed that the nearest town of Sanger was indeed only a dozen kilometers away and rushed at full speed.

As the sun gradually set, Fursun arrived at the town of Sanger before the stars appeared.

The streets of the town were a bit deserted, there were not many pedestrians, and the chimneys of each house were burning with smoke.

There was a lack of entertainment activities in this era. At night, everyone went home to make babies or rest. Only a few buildings such as hotels and pubs still had their doors open.

The four of them walked on the street and arrived at the gate of Notre Dame Cathedral in Sanger Town without stopping.

This place looks more majestic than the Baron Lord's Palace in the town. Behind the gate is a green square with an exquisite statue of a girl in the center.

Unlike the graceful mother-in-law, the girl's every smile is full of healthy vitality. Just looking at the statue of the banyan tree, she feels that her spirituality has become lively, and her abundant energy is about to overflow.

The banyan tree quickly avoided sight and entered Notre Dame through the iron gate that was not closed.

Walking in the green square, Rongshu found that there seemed to be no one here. He couldn't rush into the buildings here for fear of causing misunderstandings.

On the north side of the green square is a clear artificial lake, on the west side is a three-story red brick building, on the east side is a domed lobby, and there is a small wooden house behind the iron gate.

Gradually, the sky gradually darkened, with only a few stars and no moon in the sky. However, the banyan tree saw the light still shining in the window of the cabin. After thinking for a while, she walked to the door and knocked on the wooden door.

With a squeak, an old face came into view. This was a professional old man wearing a white robe, but his body was very strong and he looked extremely healthy.

The old man glanced at the four people in the banyan tree and asked, "Are they mercenaries looking for work?"

Banyan Tree nodded: "Yes, we came to Fulsong Territory from other places, we just didn't know."

But before he could finish speaking, the old man interrupted him impatiently: "Why are you talking so much? Don't you just want money?

You group of wandering mercenaries obviously need to be blessed by the Holy Mother to step into the transcendent world, but in the end, all of you are looking for money. "

Banyan touched her nose awkwardly and could only say weakly: "It's all because of the pressure of life."

The old man looked at the four of them for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, come with me and give you a test first."

Rongshu's heart skipped a beat. This could be regarded as Si Chen's territory. If he were to test his spirituality, he might have to reveal his secret. He quickly asked cautiously: "What test?"

The old man said impatiently: "Why don't you understand anything? The children are coming tomorrow. How can we arrange work for you if we don't understand your knowledge level and skills you are good at?"

The banyan tree asked in confusion: "Do we still need to be a part-time teacher?"

"Are you going to do it or not?"

"Don't be angry, I'll do it, I'll do it, we'll do everything!"

"I haven't asked you yet how to address you?"

"Just call me Old John!"

The four of them followed Old John with smiles on their faces.

Old John took them into a classroom in the red brick building on the west side and took out four pieces of parchment. Test papers?

"This is."

Rongshu, who took the parchment test paper, looked confused. Immediately, Old John gave them quills and ink respectively and urged them: "Hurry up and finish writing and leave it to me!"

The banyan tree immediately stopped talking, and they picked up their pens and started writing.

Looking at the questions on the test paper, Rong Shu felt anxious. There were some basic knowledge on the parchment, but it was the basic knowledge in the middle part of the blood sacrifice system.

Not only did the extraordinary system of the First Era lack systematic alchemy, but its knowledge of rituals and runes was also very rough.

However, a lot of knowledge was not in a system that Carlin was familiar with. When Rongshu encountered questions that he did not know how to solve, he could only guess at them. Half an hour later, the four of them gave up and handed in the papers.

Old John took the parchment and looked at it for a while, his face turned dark for a while and then became weird again.

He dared to swear to the blood mother that he had never seen such a weird extraordinary person.

After reading the answers to some questions in the test paper, he felt that they might be better than the standard answers.

But there were still many questions whose answers were so miserable that he even felt that any uneducated person on the street could do better than these four weirdos.

If it weren't for the fact that the four people's spirituality was normal and their thinking logic was very clear, he would have doubted whether these four guys were suffering from schizophrenia symptoms. This was completely split into two people answering questions.

Now John was completely in trouble, and he didn't know whether he should let the four of them do the sacred job of part-time teachers.

Seeing that he was looking at the test paper without moving for a long time, the banyan tree finally couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Old John, how are our results?"

Old John took a deep breath, and finally said with an expression that was hard to explain: "Don't worry, let's test your actual combat ability."

After saying that, he walked out of the classroom, and the four of them hurriedly followed.
