She doesn't want to be the first one to speak out!
After the centaur left, the ground where she was standing slowly opened up, revealing an eggshell half a person's height.
Eggshell observed carefully for a while, then carefully crawled out of the ground.
A small hole was broken at the bottom of the eggshell, and a slender scaly tail stretched out from it, supporting the entire thing and driving it forward.
Eggshell looked at the wooden stake stained with Herbert's blood and Steven who was worshipping it before, and shook it up and down, seeming to be very satisfied with it.
Chapter 201 Application (3/5)
The Knights' headquarters.
"You mean, you want to apply to go into the Misty Mountains alone to hunt monsters?"
"Yes, please approve it, His Excellency the Knight Commander."
Bishop Rusty Nail narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man standing proudly in front of him, his brows slightly furrowed.
He was very pleased with Herbert.
This young man is an excellent choice in terms of both character and talent, and is the core of the future of the Misty Monastery.
Bishop Rusty Nail has high expectations for Herbert and hopes that he can take over his position in the future.
He even said that one day he would be able to successfully make His Excellency the Archbishop step back peacefully - but he also knew that
That's really difficult.
I'm afraid that His Eminence the Archbishop will only feel at ease after a new saint appears.
That said, he hoped that Herbert could at least get the Warden to put aside his duties.
These two Excellencies have given so much to the monastery and have persisted for so long. It is time for them to take a good rest.
It’s a pity that my current strength and that of that bald idiot is not enough to reassure those two gentlemen.
But Herbert might.
If the Knight Commander and the Chief Judge's expectations of Herbert were only legendary before, then after the battle of Frost Crystal, his expectations in the hearts of the two bishops had skyrocketed.
With such talent and character, an epic strongman---it doesn't seem impossible, right
With such expectations, they mostly chose to turn a blind eye to Herbert's other minor problems in life, and tried their best to prevent others from interfering with him.
Otherwise, Herbert's life now might be much less free.
However, this does not mean that Bishop Rusty Nail will condone Herbert and allow him to take such dangerous actions.
For the Knights, entering the Misty Mountains to hone themselves is not a problem. Everyone does it often and even organizes groups to enter regularly.
But the problem was that Herbert applied for entry alone.
This is a big problem.
The Misty Mountains are full of dangers. Everyone below the Legend level must travel together. Only those who reach the Legend level are eligible to travel alone.
Obviously, Herbert has not yet reached the level of a legend, and is still some distance away.
If it were anyone else, Bishop Rusty Nail wouldn't even ask any more questions and would simply ignore this idiot's request.
And give him severe punishment.
But the person in front of him was Herbert, so he did not refuse at the beginning. Instead, he frowned and thought for a while before asking:
"Why?"
He needed Herbert to give him a reason.
Herbert was prepared for this. He straightened his back, looked into the other person's eyes, and began to tell his story.
"Your Excellency the Knight Commander, let me explain to you today."
"During this trip to Frost Crystal, I deeply realized the inadequacy of my own strength."
"If I could have strong enough strength, I wouldn't have to rely on the Rager to spread pressure, I wouldn't have to rely on her to put pressure on the kingdom, and I wouldn't have to create fear in the hearts of some people."
"If I had legendary strength, I could easily judge all the evil nobles myself.
Instead of relying on the Church of God to help with the final step. "
"If I had the power, I could have solved those problems earlier, so those innocent people wouldn't have to endure any more."
“I feel extremely ashamed of my weakness and powerlessness.”
"This is all my fault. I made them suffer."
Herbert clenched his fist, gently placed it on his chest, and said:
"After I came back, I thought about it for a long time, and I finally realized that the person I should rely on most is not others, but myself."
"Rather than relying on others, I need to improve my own strength!"
"No matter how sharp the sword in another's hand is, it will never be better than the one in your own hand."
"So, I hope to be able to enter the Misty Mountains to hone my strength!"
"Please approve it, Your Excellency!"
When Herbert said this, he mobilized all his emotions and used the power of the devil's tongue, which was extremely inciting.
Even a cold-hearted person like Bishop Rusty Nail was slightly moved at this moment and nodded in agreement.
"You are right, it is true - I am glad that you realize it at this moment."
He was very pleased with Herbert's idea.
Young people are always blindly confident and most of them overestimate their own abilities.
Confidence is a good thing, but blind confidence will only destroy them.
And now Herbert's performance is very surprising.
Not only did he not attribute all his previous achievements to himself, but he also knew how to reflect on them afterwards and find out the problems and shortcomings.
This is good.
It also further strengthened the Knight Commander's opinion of Herbert.
His future will definitely not stop at legend, but will definitely go beyond legend.
But one thing is one thing.
After being moved, the knight calmed down and finally shook his head and rejected Herbert's application.
"no."
Ten moves but still refused!
Herbert was not surprised by this result. His expression remained unchanged and he bowed his head respectfully.
"Mr. Knight Commander, could you please tell me the reason for your refusal?"
Bishop Rusty Nail shook his head and said directly, even somewhat cold-bloodedly:
"It's too risky to go into the Misty Mountains alone. It doesn't matter to others, but a talent like you shouldn't take such a risk."
His personality is such that he is cold inside and out. He speaks his mind and never hides anything.
"Even if you don't enter the Misty Mountains, the Knights still have many ways to help you improve your strength."
"You still lack a lot of training on the skills of a Paladin. You can take this opportunity to catch up."
Herbert pursed his lips after hearing this explanation.
The Knight Commander is right.
There are many training methods, and you don't have to choose the most dangerous one. Even if you do choose it, the effect may not be the best.
Of course he knew that.
But the thing is.-It's not for others, but entering the Misty Mountains is definitely the best thing for him.
I'm going to go in and kill a lot of people!
Herbert wanted to apply to enter the Misty Mountains. His main purpose was to make good use of his conquering power and find monsters to level up.
I go there to level up, not to be leveled up.
Bishop Rusty Nail saw Herbert's expression and knew that he was dissatisfied. He shook his head and said, "You can't go in alone. If you must go, you must go with others."
"The Knights will organize a hunting competition in a while, and you can form a team with others to participate."
Chapter 202 The ability to protect oneself? (4/5 plus 34)
Monster hunting competition.
This is a traditional program for training monks at the Misty Monastery. It is conducted once a month and the rules are very simple.
The contestants were divided into teams of five and went into the Misty Mountains to hunt.
After destroying the monsters, they left behind their exclusive materials as proof of the kill, and eventually the best team was judged and rewarded.
The final prize wasn’t that great, but the winning team had the opportunity to be presented the prize by the Archbishop himself, which was the real reward.
To be honest, it did meet Herbert's need to kill monsters, but he was still not satisfied.
He entered the Misty Mountains not only to kill monsters, but also to take a look at his base to see if there was anything new inside.
If someone were traveling with us, the situation would become very troublesome.
I definitely couldn't tell them, so I could only find a chance to sneak away and then return to the team after everything was over.
But the problem is that not everyone is indifferent to the periodic sudden disappearance of the Death God Elementary School Student.
Someone would surely notice Herbert's eccentricity, and then things would become troublesome.
It is also not possible to render your companions harmless every time and go back alone, that would be too time-consuming.
After hesitating for a while, Herbert decided to play a trump card.
"Sir Knight Commander, are you worried that I don't have the ability to protect myself?"
"You could say that."
"But what if I can prove my ability to protect myself?"
"..-·Um
Bishop Rusty Nail's brows twitched slightly. He vaguely guessed what Herbert wanted to say next.
Can he really convince me
Does he really have the confidence to convince me
So how can I be convinced by his current strength
Bishop Rusty Nail thought so, and suddenly his eyes were fixed on the glowing holy mark on Herbert's arm.
etc--·
No way
When Herbert began to mobilize the holy power, an almost impossible possibility suddenly occurred to his mind. Without giving him time to think, Herbert's holy mark suddenly lit up, and then quickly transformed into a pair of huge scarlet wings behind him.
The Rusty Nail Bishop's indifferent expression completely disappeared, his mouth slightly opened, and only shock remained in his eyes.
This this this—
This is impossible!!!
He looked at the white-haired boy who spread his wings and slowly floated into the air, looking down at him like an angel descending to the earth, and was stunned for a moment.
The wings behind the opponent were not made of some alchemical products, nor were they magical props, but genuine holy power!
This young man really did it!
"The Holy Mark has taken shape, you actually——"
Even Bishop Rusty Nail was speechless at this moment for such an exaggerated talent.
He even felt a little jealous.
Am I jealous of him
