Chapter 1 A Knight's Dream

"If one day I can really fly in the sky, I must let these two guys know how powerful I am!"

Feeling his body gliding off the ground, Qin Shaofu's thought flashed through his mind. Before the thought could go away, he groaned and had already landed heavily on the ground.

There was a burst of laughter behind him, and he was extremely disdainful: "A guy with oriental blood also wanted to be a knight, which was simply a dream. You can go as far as you go, and you will never come. I'm afraid I can't help but strangle you to death next time."

Immediately, more laughter sounded, one after another, like pots of cold water pouring on Qin Shaofu's heart, making him angry and smoking on his head. If it weren't for the powerlessness and difficulty moving at this moment, he really wanted to rush over and die with those guys who mocked him.

Unfortunately, he could only think so. With a creaking sound, the door closed, and the people didn't even want to laugh at him.

People walked around from time to time, but no one seemed to come and take a look. The glances of the glances were just sneering and disdain.

"This is the legendary guy? He will come every time the Templar exam, and then he will be beaten and thrown out every time."

"The blood of the Eastern people... who else isn't him? He's so stupid. The Imperial Knights even recruit almost only children of Western blood, let alone the stricter Knights Templar."

"Although according to regulations, as long as you defeat the examiner, you can become an apprentice knight, it is not so easy for those who can become an examiner to be defeated. What's more, every examiner responsible for recruiting an apprentice knight at the age of 18 has the strength of being a sixth-level Xuan level. It would be great if this kid can have the second-level Xuan level, how could it be possible?"

"If it weren't for the kindness of the God of Light, such a fool would have been beaten to death long ago..."

“…”

All kinds of ridicule and cold words were heard, like the sound of a bee flapping its wings, which made Qin Shaofu clench his fist tightly and let go for a long time.

"It's been a seventh time again!"

The Knight exam is once every six months. He started trying it since he was fifteen years old and never missed it. It is the seventh time today. Unfortunately, the results are the same.

He felt lost. After his body recovered a certain amount of strength, Qin Shaofu got up and staggered forward in the contemptuous eyes of a group of people.

This place is called the Imperial Capital, the capital of the Holy Empire, and it is also the largest city of the Holy Empire. It flourishes and exudes infinite charm, but it also has an extremely cruel reality.

In this city, there are hundreds of nobles who are born with super-ranked power, wealth and resources, and they can easily get things that ordinary people pursue throughout their lives.

As an ordinary person, even if you get a lot of wealth through business, you are always a pariah class and inferior to others. As an ordinary person, the best way to make a name for himself and shine on his family is to become a knight.

But becoming a knight is not that easy. Even if you become an apprentice knight through layers of screening, if you want to become a real knight, you have to keep making contributions and go a long way.

And it would be even more difficult for civilians like Qin Shaofu who have the blood of Eastern people.

The Holy Empire was established by the Germans and the Saxons. The most glorious profession in this country is the knights. More than 99% of the knights are pure Germans and Saxons. Only a few knights are from other bloodlines. Moreover, those knights can enjoy such glory because they have made great contributions, and few are not strong people.

Like Qin Shaofu, who wants to become an apprentice knight, then make contributions and then become a real knight, is probably a handful of holy empires.

Everyone knows, including Qin Shaofu himself, but he just doesn't want to give up.

He is an orphan or a mixed-race orphan. Under the extremely obvious characteristics of Eastern people, there are many Western people, such as: his eyes are blue.

Qin Shaofu was raised by a pastor named Victor. Although the pastor's character is up to date, he must be said to be excellent to him. He not only taught him to read and write, but also taught him a lot of martial arts.

Because the Oriental people have been traveling westward for thousands of years, it has led to the fact that the entire sacred empire is common, as mixed with blood as him.

In the eyes of the arrogant Germans and Saxons, whether it is Eastern or mixed races with Eastern blood, they are inferior races. Under the arrogance and paranoia of the entire society, it is difficult for people like him to stand out.

Over time, it is not just the contempt of Westerners, but also the mixed-race people themselves give up on themselves, and most of them are at the bottom of society.

But Qin Shaofu is different. He doesn't want to be a hooligan or gangster in the streets and alleys, and then live a poor life. He wants to be a knight and change everything in his life.

Unfortunately, I don’t know if it’s because of the priest Victor’s ability or his own qualifications. The sword skills he learned since childhood, let alone defeating an examiner who is four grades higher than him, even if he is an opponent of the same grade, it is still difficult.

I staggered across a street and stopped in front of a square.

There is a huge statue here, a man riding a horse and waving his spear. The cold statue is lifelike. At first glance, you can see the knightly moral character contained in it: bravery and fearlessness, humility and justice, glory and sacrifice...

Looking at the statue from afar, Qin Shaofu's eyes were full of admiration.

In order to teach him to read and write, the pastor Victor began to use stories to guide him to become interested in words when Qin Shaofu was very young. The most common ones were the legend of the God of Light and the story of the knight.

Among them, what fascinated Qin Shaofu the most was the story of the god knight Mars.

A commoner becomes a knight, then continues to create miracles, become one of the few strong men in the world, and finally dies with the demons and is posthumously awarded the Supreme Glory Knight by the Holy See.

The legend of the God of Light is all myths that cannot be verified, but the story of the god knight Mars is sung all over the world, because it has only been sixty years since his sacrifice.

In addition to making a name for himself, the story of the God Knight Mars is also the main reason why Qin Shaofu wants to become a knight.

"I will definitely become a knight, or a knight as great as you."

With a roar in his heart, Qin Shaofu respectfully saluted Mars' statue, and then left step by step.

City South Governor's Governor's Side Courtyard.

The garrison is a soldier responsible for maintaining the security of the imperial capital. Although he is not as good as a knight, he is also considered a soldier within the organization of the Holy Empire.

The side yard was living in a chore, responsible for all kinds of trivial matters... Qin Shaofu was one of them.

Even this servant was bought by the priest Victor for twenty silver coins. He could still make a living by one silver coin per month.

Standing at the door, Qin Shaofu hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and walked in.

Sure enough, someone immediately made a "surprise" voice: "Isn't this our Knight? Why are you back to this doghouse?"

"Is it embarrassing to lose again and again? How many times have I told you that we are poor and have no chances, so be your servants honestly!"

“…”

There were all kinds of ridicule, and there were several poor people of Western ancestry, most of them were mixed-race like him.

It was never a secret that Qin Shaofu was determined to become a knight, and everyone knew it. He thought that these people with his average identity would give him support, but on the contrary, he received more intense ridicule than those of the best.

As always, without saying a word, he lay down on his own bed and closed his eyes.

He was very tired and wanted to rest.

But as soon as he closed his eyelids, a few clangs came in. A soldier in armor walked in.

"You, you, you…"

The sergeant pointed to four or five people in a row: "Bring things with you and ready to set off with the army."

The people immediately looked dark. It was already nightfall. It was naturally a chore to set off with the army at this time.

The soldier looked around and his eyes fell on Qin Shaofu, frowned, and disgust appeared on his face. He walked over two steps, kicked the edge of the bed, and shouted: "And you, get out of me. I heard that you are embarrassing again today, so I shouldn't give you a rest time."

"Knight, knight... If you are such a trash, I can be a god knight."

A burst of insults, and the surrounding servants immediately burst into laughter, which made the soldier extremely proud.

Qin Shaofu clenched his fist, let go again, and walked out with his head down.

One day, I will shut up these people.

After cleaning up, the six servants took the blame, bowls, buckets, and various daily necessities, stood at the door of the garrison and waited. After a team of 100 people came out, they followed behind and trotted.

On weekdays, there are not many such nights, but this time, all the differences are different. This team did not go to any place in the imperial capital, but went out of the city gate and headed eastward.

Looking at the darkness ahead, Qin Shaofu complained, this trip was probably a long-distance marching.

If it were on weekdays, he wouldn't care. With his dream of a knight, he has trained hard since he was a child and has excellent physical fitness. It is not a problem to run seventy or eighty kilometers in one go. Many soldiers here are not as good as him.

But today is different. He just experienced a fierce battle. Not only did he almost exhaust his physical strength, but he still had many injuries on his body. Not to mention running seventy or eighty kilometers, even if he was allowed to run ten kilometers, it would be a fatal matter.

Just as I left the city gate, all kinds of uncomfortable reactions appeared one after another. What was even more troublesome is that under extreme fatigue, not only were the legs weak, but the eyes were also weak.

It weighs a thousand pounds, and it is difficult to open it if it is slightly combined.

I'm going to die, I'm going to die... I kept shouting in my heart, and I almost cried.

At this moment, if you really fall down, it will be more than just being punished. You might even die here.

Unfortunately, he had no friend here, and no one would help him. Those servants even looked at him with sneer, waiting for something to happen because they knew about his situation.

The steps are staggering, slower and heavier.

Qin Shaofu didn't want to fall down, but he couldn't help. At the moment when he was about to completely lose his strength and faint, a cold force suddenly poured in from his chest like a spring water, causing him to tremble all over and he woke up.

Most of the fatigue on his body disappeared strangely, and his whole body seemed to have become lighter.

Qin Shaofu lowered his head and looked at his chest. There was an ordinary white jade pendant. He clearly felt that the cold force was coming from the jade pendant.

What's the situation?
