Chapter 45 Thrilling! Inspection At The Entrance To The Imperial Capital!
The spring sun is warm and bright.
On the railway from Tianfu East Station to the Imperial Capital, there is a transparent energy protective cover constructed like the undersea tunnel.
"Dear passengers, we have left Chang'an City, the capital of [Qinxi Province], and our next stop is Xingzheng City, the capital of [Yuzhou Province]."
The conductor's voice came over the radio, and then he repeated it again in a foreign language.
"Chang'an City and Xingzheng City are both S-level capital cities in their respective provinces and regions. They have long historical and cultural heritage and cultural scenery. It's a pity that I didn't have time to take a look this time."
Wu Fan sat on the train, watching the scenery along the way recede rapidly. Although it was protected by an energy shield, news of the train being attacked by monsters appeared every year, with considerable casualties.
Especially in 2010, an EMU carrying thousands of people was attacked by a Super A-class monster. The protective cover was torn, and the entire EMU derailed. Nearly 800 people were killed and injured.
"But even so, trains are much safer than airplanes..."
Whoosh!
Just as Wu Fan was thinking, he saw a giant silver wolf more than 10 meters long appearing outside the protective cover.
"Ah! Monster!" The appearance of the silver giant wolf instantly caused many people to start screaming.
"Passengers, please don't panic. This train will be patrolled by warriors from the demon-slaying detachment. They are here to protect you, not to attack by monsters."
After hearing the broadcast, everyone calmed down a little. Then they took a closer look and found that there was actually a warrior wearing a standard combat uniform sitting on the back of Silver Wolf, with the word "hundred" hanging on his chest.
"It's the master warrior of the Demon Slayer Team!"
Just like the uniforms of different colors worn by the Judgment to distinguish levels, the warriors of the Demon Slayer Team also have their own symbols.
The medal with the word [hundred] hanging on his chest proves that this warrior of the demon-slaying team has defeated more than 100 monsters of the same level or above as himself. He is already a very powerful person. A warrior of this level should be Team leader of a prefecture-level city.
I saw the giant silver wolf running in the wilderness, no slower than a train.
"Powerful warriors can raise monsters as war pets, but they must be reported to the relevant departments for registration."
Wu Fan knew this, but monsters were nourished by spiritual energy and were intelligent. They were very wild. It was very difficult to tame a monster as a battle pet.
But no matter how difficult it is, as long as you have money and power, you can do it.
In S-level big cities such as Tianfu, Imperial Capital, Chang'an, and Xingzheng, there are shops specializing in selling monster eggs and young monsters.
Many young masters and ladies from warrior families like to raise some relatively powerful monsters. The eggs and cubs of these monster beasts for sale are obtained by warrior hunters in the wild, because monsters during the reproductive period are very sensitive and violent. relationship, so compared to hunting monsters, the act of obtaining eggs and cubs is more dangerous, and the mortality rate is very high, so those monster eggs are very expensive.
But then again, money, spiritual stones, and precious materials are nothing to those warrior families. The sky-high prices you think are probably just their pocket money.
"Why are there so many young people going to the Imperial Capital recently?" In the train room, several flight attendants were chatting.
"Have you forgotten? The nationwide inspection tour is about to begin."
"Oh, yes, some martial arts universities in the Imperial and Magic Capitals are going to start enrolling students independently."
Independent enrollment, as a way for schools to attract particularly outstanding talents, is certainly not the prerogative of Imperial Wuhan University and Huaxia Wuhan University. Only 39 of the top 985-level Wuhan University in the country have this right.
"But I heard that there seems to be some changes in this year's independent admissions examination." A flight attendant said. Her rank is a bit high, she should be a flight attendant or something like that.
"Sister Fangfang, what's the change? Why didn't I know?"
"You must not have a child studying at Warrior High School in your family. I have one in my family, so I am particularly concerned about such news."
As soon as Wu Fan finished using the toilet, he heard the words of several flight attendants and stopped to ask.
"Sister, are there any changes in independent enrollment this year?"
Sister Fangfang, the flight attendant, heard Wu Fan calling her sister, and her face immediately burst into laughter.
"Oh, you little classmate has such a sweet mouth. You must have picked up a lot of girls at school, right?"
"Didn't they talk about the reform of the martial arts college entrance examination last year? Some leaders are very dissatisfied with the current martial arts culture, saying that the knowledge and abilities of today's young warriors are declining year by year."
"So the Ministry of Education is ordered to change the model of the warrior college entrance examination. In the past, the warrior college entrance examination focused on examining the level of spiritual pressure. Now it is not only about spiritual pressure. While increasing the proportion of scores in cultural courses, it is also necessary to increase the number of monster hunting and warrior battles in the wild. project."
"When the martial arts college entrance examination changes, independent enrollment will definitely change. And it is said that this independent enrollment examination will become a small national martial arts college entrance examination. Using the reformed martial arts college entrance examination program to conduct the examination is equivalent to using independent enrollment. Test it and see the effect." The crew chief said worriedly.
"I don't know if my son can pass the exam..."
Wu Fan returned to his seat. Along the way, he saw many boys and girls about his age. They should all be competitors going to the imperial capital to take the exam.
"A new nationwide independent enrollment..." For some reason, Wu Fan was not worried at all, but instead felt an uncontrollable throbbing in his abdomen.
He clenched his fists and looked out the window with burning eyes.
"It's really..."
"It's exciting."
The train bound for the Imperial Capital departs from Tianfu, passes through Chang'an, Xingzheng, and finally passes through Shimen City, the capital of Jizhou Province, before arriving at the Imperial Capital.
A large group of people got off the train at Imperial Capital West Station.
"So many warriors?"
As soon as Wu Fan got out of the car, he felt the spiritual pressure of countless warriors!
"As expected of the Imperial Capital, warriors who are very rare in small counties can be seen everywhere in the Imperial Capital." However, Wu Fan also expressed his understanding. Who among those who are capable would not want to come to the biggest stage to show off their skills?
However, before Wu Fan could fully appreciate the grandeur of the imperial capital, his expression changed slightly.
Because in front, there were many warriors from the Judgment Office, all wearing white uniforms.
"C-level warrior!?"
At least 200 judges in white stood beside a huge inspection gate, watching the passing passengers.
Moreover, there were more than a dozen B-level blue-clothed judges standing on the side, and there was even a hidden A-level golden-shirted judge at the very end.
"Is this to prevent cult warriors and some wanted warriors from sneaking into the imperial capital?"
Wu Fan looked uneasy because he now had a red mask of a cult saint inside his body.
"It's definitely not possible to escape now. This is just an entrance. There are more than a dozen such detection ports around. There are more than ten in the Golden Cloak Judgment alone..."
Just as Wu Fan was thinking, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.
He looked back and said in surprise:
"Huh? Why is it you?"
