Among the seven core characters of the small mercenary group, the Furious Dwarf King is the most difficult person for historians to describe. Due to his natural bloodline, the Dwarf King was unable to join the trio of humans, dragons and gods, but among the remaining four people
, he will burst out with dazzling brilliance like a superstar at any time.
Some people believe that if there were no trio of humans, dragons and gods, there might not be such a legendary figure as the Furious Dwarf King;
However, more historians analyze from a fair point of view, if there is really no trio of humans, dragons and gods in front to steal the attention, the legendary dwarf king may become the pinnacle figure of that generation;
After analyzing the previous battles commanded by the Mercenary King, many war scientists have come to a conclusion that the world cannot believe: the troops led by the Dwarf King are the strongest and heaviest note under the baton of the Mercenary King's battles.

Chapter 7 Fantasy Beast Trial
The third day after Amy and the others arrived at Scambrai was the much-anticipated Phantom Beast Trial Ceremony. Although it was a highly anticipated event, in fact, the number of people who were lucky enough to enter the trial site was strictly controlled. In addition to participating in the trial competition
In addition, only two types of people are qualified to enter the trial site. If they are not nobles with the title of Earl of Scambrai or above, they must be active soldiers with the rank of general or above in Scambrai City. Of course, most of the time, these two are
overlap each other.
This is a very rare opportunity for most of the participants in the ceremony. Any young man who can reach this point may become the backbone of the next generation power center of the empire in the next 10 to 20 years. Therefore, this is the end
Whether you are able to get to know them and build a wider network of connections for yourself; or you have girls of marriageable age or unmarried boys of marriageable age at home, everyone is a talented person who comes here to build a better network for your family.
The head of a famous family must fulfill his responsibilities.
Every Eudemons Knight candidate who comes here is also very aware of this. Of course, their mood is not only to wait for a price, but also for them to use this opportunity to directly establish a close relationship with the empire's superstructure. It is also extremely rare.
Chance.
In history, there are many knights of fantasy beasts who came from poor backgrounds but gained the best reputation in the trial competition and became the son-in-law of a certain earl or marquis.
On the afternoon of the next day, Duke Chi, Chi Hanfeng, and Lei Ge were invited to participate in this Fantasy Beast Trial Conference as visitors, and Chi Aotian also received a notice to participate in this trial conference.
During the day, the beasts are most active at ten o'clock in the morning. In order to obtain better trial results, all participants in this ceremony must enter the trial hall before 5:00 in the morning.
When the sky was still bright, the Duke and his entourage had already left the Duke's Palace and arrived at the trial hall - the Amy Empire's Imperial Council Hall. It was also customary to use the Empire's largest indoor space - the Empire Council Hall as a trial venue.
.
When the first ray of sunlight entered the hall from the east wall, the 35-year-old Emperor Hongshi II, who was in his prime, accompanied by his attendants, ascended the throne symbolizing imperial power. At this time, the guards slowly closed the door.
door.
According to the rules over the years, the candidates for the Imperial Fantasy Beast Knights come from 5 different systems. The largest one is the Knight School that recruits 100% of the children of the Imperial Nobles. In each session, they will produce 10 to 12 official candidates; the second
The big system is the army. All military personnel of appropriate age who have a rank of squadron leader or above in the army can be recommended. Of course, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to obtain a rank of squadron leader or above before the age of 25. Perhaps only nobles can have such good luck.
Well, there will be 6 to 8 candidates from this system in each session; the third largest system is the magic academy, which mainly consists of children of nobles and merchants. This system recommends at least 4 candidates in each session; the fourth largest system
The system is a mercenary organization within the empire. They can give priority to recommending outstanding active or reserve mercenaries who come from poor backgrounds, recommending at least 4 people in each session. The fifth largest system is the magic union within the empire. They are responsible for recommending mercenaries who are unable to enter magic due to various reasons.
For the school’s young magicians, 4 places are recommended for each class.
In order to ensure that there are enough candidates for the private sector, the latter two systems were clearly notified that the young people participating must not have any aristocratic blood, nor must they be the children of retainers of aristocratic families.
In addition to these five major systems, there is a special system that will participate in the Eudemons Trial in each session - the special envoys of the Holy Church. The number of people in this system is fixed, with 3 people in each session. This year's participants have been determined.
Among them is Sha Ruo.
According to the rules over the years, the number of phantom beasts that appear in each session is 31, but the number of people participating in the trial is 31 + 3 ~ 5, because not everyone is suitable to be a phantom beast knight, and the phantom beasts are even more picky about knights than
Many noble people who were present, including earls and marquises, had a good time choosing their bedfellows.
During the trial of the phantom beasts, except for the participating knights and the presiding magician, most people, including the king, were just spectators.
However, it seems that something is wrong this year. The Red Stone Emperor looked very unhappy. After sitting on the throne, he did not signal the Imperial Archmage Nolin to start the ceremony. Instead, he patted the armrest of the throne heavily: "Principal Liufeng of the Knight School,
General Ning Lun, Archmage Dada of the Magic Academy, I would like to ask you a question."
Principal Liufeng was also a knight of fantasy beasts. After serving in the army for many years, he was transferred to a knight school and steadily became the principal. He is a middle-aged man in his 50s; General Ning Lun is a rare officer in the army who is not a Duke of Chi.
This time, I am responsible for the recommendation of military system trial personnel; Archmage Dada is a mage of the sacred system. Although he comes from the Holy Church, he has lived in the Empire State for many years.
The three people immediately walked to the Red Stone Emperor very respectfully.
"Previously, illegal gangs attacked the empire and went to the Hami Kingdom to welcome the Phantom Beast Envoy, which resulted in the death of the head of the envoy, the Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs. The matter has not been finalized yet; then, last night, I received a sudden report,
Some of the system recommenders were injured inexplicably and were unable to participate in this candidacy. As a result, the number of candidate knights dropped sharply from the original 35 to 31. I very much hope to get a reasonable explanation from these three people." After listening to this, everyone at the scene was stunned.
I understand where the Red Stone Emperor is angry.
Of course, only the Phantom Beast Knight knows the real key to the Emperor's anger.
According to the early trial process of the Eudemons Knight, the magician first put the sacred wood sticks marked with 31 fantasy beasts and several sacred wooden sticks without the fantasy beast marks into the magic box, and then each knight stepped forward and carefully
Call the magical beast wooden sign, and the knight who gets the divine wooden sign finds the corresponding magical beast outside the fantasy realm, and communicates with the fantasy beast in the fantasy realm with his heart.
Each phantom beast has its own unique temperament. This is the meaning of "phantom beast channeling". When human knights choose them, they are also silently choosing human knights. Only the knights that the real phantom beasts like can be chosen.
You can gain 100% trust from the phantom beasts, so that you can pass the later, more difficult, true Holy Snow Mountain phantom beast trials.
According to historical records, all knights who are unable to complete the Holy Snow Mountain Fantasy Beast Trial, all have the fantasy beast rejecting the knight in the fantasy beast selection from the beginning.
According to the rules, if the knight succeeds in the first round of fantasy beast communication, he can enter the Holy Snow Mountain to participate in the later trial. If he fails, he will put the fantasy beast lottery he just received into the bag again and participate in a new round of selection. One
If the phantom beast fails to recognize its master twice in a row, the third knight will forcibly become the new master of the phantom beast, regardless of whether it can be recognized.
Therefore, in the early trials of the fantasy beast knights every year, in addition to ensuring the quality of the fantasy beasts, the selection of knights is particularly important. It is often necessary to prepare a few more knights to ensure that each fantasy beast can find a suitable owner.
Now, at the last moment, something suddenly happened to the Eudemon Beast Knight candidate, which undoubtedly cast a shadow on this Eudemon Beast Knight trial.
The three officials who were questioned looked at each other and awkwardly explained to the Red Stone Emperor: It was really impossible to control the course of the matter. Several knights either drank too much and fell off their horses and fractured their bones; or they were quarreling with others in the hotel, causing injuries;
Or simply get seriously ill.
The Red Stone Emperor snorted heavily: "Since you can't even protect the knights participating in this trial, it fully proves that your official positions are not very suitable, Minister of Military Affairs, Minister of Personnel Affairs." Duke Chi did not expect that he had just returned.
The imperial capital had its own affairs, so he and the minister of civil affairs hurriedly went to see Emperor Hongshi, "The three officials will each be demoted by two levels, and you will appoint the relevant positions separately."
In the rage of Emperor Hongshi, no one dared to intervene to plead for mercy for his three colleagues.
After a pause, the Red Stone Emperor suddenly asked Count Lin: "Count Lin, your daughter went to the Hami Kingdom as an envoy. Even though the head of the envoy was injured, she was still able to complete the mission. Her hard work is great. This time, she is now in
The imperial capital?"
The Count stepped forward and saluted and replied: "Your Majesty, my daughter is currently a candidate for the Phantom Beast Knight at the Magic Academy, and she is already here."
"Oh," the emperor seemed slightly surprised: "Please come up."
Lin Yushang hurriedly came to the emperor at his father's signal. The emperor simply asked two questions: "Miss Lin, I heard that two young mercenaries helped you complete the mission. Is that true? Where are they now?
?”
Lin Yushang was also surprised. She did not expect that the emperor was so sensitive to information: "Yes, Your Majesty, one of them is the adopted son of Count Chi Hanfeng, and the other is the apprentice of Count Chi Hanfeng."
The emperor's brows relaxed slightly, and he turned his head directly to Chi Hanfeng, who was shrinking at the end of the crowd: "Earl Chi, is this true?"
The elders at the scene all knew that the emperor was actually Chi Hanfeng's cousin based on his family status, and Chi Hanfeng was a notoriously lazy character. When he was a child, he used force to teach the ignorant prince who always grabbed good things with his brother.
He is good at hitting, and he always controls the weight very well. He can always beat the prince without leaving any scars or marks, but he will burst into tears.
When the Duke or Princess arrived, not only were they unable to capture the evidence, but they also saw the sensible brother carefully wiping the prince's tears. Of course, they could not hear someone whisper in the prince's ear: "What if it was me?"
Not only will I hit you harder next time, but hey, I won’t take you out to play from now on, and I’ll make those little sisters ignore you.” He uses reason, moves him with emotion, and lures him with benefits. This is undoubtedly Earl Chi.
One of the precocious testimonies.
It is said that sending Duke Chi to guard the border early was one of Duke Chi's last resort actions after learning many details.
Chi Hanfeng saw that he couldn't escape, and murmured to himself: "Why wasn't I the one who was attacked just now while drinking and fighting?" while walking towards the emperor.
"Well, is there such a thing?" Chi Hanfeng was probably the only one in the world who dared to speak to the emperor like this; and never addressing his majesty was Chi Hanfeng's only patent. Duke Chi glared fiercely at one side
When he looked at him, Chi Hanfeng suddenly became more honest: "Ha, let me think about it, it seems that there is such a thing. Amy is my adopted son, the legitimate son of the former captain of the Glacier Brigade of the Imperial Border Guard, and by the way, he is also Lei
Ge’s apprentice; Da Qingshan is my apprentice.”
The emperor, who had long been accustomed to Chi Hanfeng's flirtatious tone, did not show any strange behavior, but his words were shocking: "Marshal Chi, it seems that Amy is the son of a high-ranking imperial officer, and he and Da Qingshan are both
A-level mercenaries, in order to ensure the quality of this selection of fantasy beast knights, can we directly invite them to become candidate knights?"
