Denise's words were indeed a heavy bomb for the knights; however, Zhang Hao was just shocked!
"Why would you want me to follow you to Urcado? "There must be a reason." Zhang Hao touched his left hand. His forearm was still hurting.
"Because you're not afraid of me!" Denise squatted in front of Zhang Hao and answered with a hopeful expression.
Lacking friends? Zhang Hao looked at the surrounding knights. Indeed, he could tell from their eyes that they loved Denise and respected her. Even the supposedly fearless Paladins would feel their hands tied in front of Denise, let alone ordinary girls.
Although Zhang Hao sympathized with Denise, he had his concerns. After all, Alicia was an ordinary girl who needed his care. Zhang Hao's departure from Kroko City was a disguised concession. He was testing the limits of the Torres neutral country's army on him. Before the results were out, he did not dare to act rashly for fear of implicating Alicia.
"I'm sorry! There are still people in Torres who need my care. I can't go to Udokar with you!”Zhang Hao rejected with an apologetic smile.
"I see!" Denise muttered to herself. The surrounding knights were also affected by her and looked at Denise with pity, but no one dared to go up and comfort her.
Denise quickly broke free from her disappointment and pestered Zhang Hao, forcing him to tell her all the interesting things about his childhood.
Although there were many interesting things in his childhood, he could not withstand Denise's pestering. Soon, Zhang Hao felt that he had nothing more to tell Denise, so he could only bring out his embarrassing childhood stories to fool Denise. He even told her that when he was young, he felt that the horse stance was too tiring and refused to practice it. He was beaten by his father, and in the end, he ran to a small forest not far from home in anger and stayed for two days and two nights. When he was thirsty, he drank the stream water, and when he was hungry, he ate wild fruits. In the end, he was bitten by mosquitoes and had red spots all over his body. He could not stand it and ran home. In the end, he was beaten up, and this scandal was brought up.
As Denise giggled, the sky was already bright. Denise finally couldn't resist her sleepiness and returned to the carriage to rest.
The number of passersby on the road gradually increased, and they were not far from Bota City. Zhang Hao felt that it would be too eye-catching for them to travel together. It would be difficult to deal with if they were misunderstood by the military authorities, so Zhang Hao bid farewell to the Pope and decided to go ahead.
" Child, I hope that you can join our Urca Nation. I will bestow upon you the title of Guardian of the Holy Cathedral with my authority as the Pope. You will also become Denise's personal Guardian Knight and protect her forever.”Just as Zhang Hao turned to leave, the Supreme Pontiff suddenly spoke.
Guardian of the Sanctum! The knights were all envious. Although they were all called Temple Knights, except for Dora, who was a real Temple Knight, most of them were two levels lower than the Temple Guard. Now that the Pope wanted to appoint Zhang Hao as the Temple Guardian, how could they not be envious?
Most importantly, he wanted Zhang Hao to be Denise's personal Guardian Knight and protect her forever. It was obvious that he wanted Denise to marry Zhang Hao. In the Urca Nation, the Pope was famous for doting on Denise. There had been many princes and nobles who had proposed political marriages to the Pope, but they had all been rejected by the Pope. Although he had used the excuse that the God of Holy Light did not allow him to interfere with the free love of others, everyone who understood knew that the Pope did not want Denise to suffer.
The male knights present were all jealous of Zhang Hao. After all, most of the knights who followed him here were Denise's admirers. However, they had no choice. They could not resist Denise's Dragon's Might. Under the pressure of love and pressure, they could not even speak sweet words fluently. The Pope would definitely not hand Denise over to someone like them.
However, Zhang Hao was different. He was not affected at all. Why am I not a Devil Devourer Body?
Zhang Hao wasn't from this world, so he didn't know what the word 'personal guard' meant. He rejected it. Even if he knew what it meant, he would still reject it.
Looking at Zhang Hao's back, the Pope whispered,""My granddaughter, Grandpa tried his best, but he couldn't keep her. How can someone who is worthy of you be so easily moved!”His tone was unusually melancholic.
Zhang Hao no longer cared about his strength being exposed. Under the surprised gazes of the passers-by, Zhang Hao rushed all the way to Bota City.
Bota City and Kroko City were roughly similar! It was just that there were slightly more people than Crocco City. The city occupied a larger area and had more luxurious buildings!
They were carved from the same mold. Zhang Hao pursed his lips. The people in this world were too rigid.
Zhang Hao asked a few mercenaries, and the seventh mercenary told him the direction of the Thieves 'Guild. The people in this place were not as good as those in Crocco City. Zhang Hao sighed as he walked. In Crocco City, anyone who asked for directions would give you detailed directions. As long as that person had enough time, they would even personally lead the way for you.
Bota City was a transportation hub, and its commercial economy was much more developed than Croc City, so the locals here were naturally snobbish and exaggerated.
Compared to other professional guilds, the Thieves 'Guild seemed a little shabby. When Zhang Hao entered, he found that there was only a middle-aged man dozing off.
When he heard that Zhang Hao was here to take the assessment and wanted to become a Bandit, he stared at Zhang Hao for a few minutes. He waved his hand and said impatiently," Although Bandit has declined, it's not something a pretty boy like you can do. Go away!"”
Zhang Hao was not angry. He smiled and repeated his words again,"I want to join the Thieves 'Guild!"
The middle-aged man sighed and extended his hand."One gold coin."
"Why?" Zhang Hao found it strange. This time, he only brought two gold coins with him and left the rest for Alicia.
"You don't even know this? Assessment fee!" The middle-aged man rolled his eyes.
"So expensive!" Zhang Hao handed a gold coin to the middle-aged man. Although he said so, he didn't show any pain on his face.
The middle-aged man took out a stone slab from inside with great effort. There was a handprint in the middle of the stone slab, and a strange magic array was carved beside it.
"Put your hands up!"
Zhang Hao put his right hand on it, but there was no reaction from the stone slab!
"You don't have any battle energy or magic and you want to pass the test? Are you kidding me?”The middle-aged man was a little angry.”
"What's the lowest level Thief assessment?”Zhang Hao was still smiling.
"Do you see that human target?" The middle-aged man pointed at a black figure made of an unknown mineral in the hall and said,"As long as you can leave a sword mark on it, I'll let you pass the low-level thief test!”
Zhang Hao walked over with a smile. The middle-aged man's voice came from behind him,""Don't do unnecessary things. It won't be good if you hurt yourself from the rebound!”
He pulled out his sword, slashed it vertically, put away his sword, and breathed out in one breath. The black humanoid statue fell to the ground in two halves, making a heavy thud.
"God of Thieves, are my eyes playing tricks on me?”The middle-aged man rubbed his eyes and stared at the two halves of the figure again.
What happened next was much simpler. When the middle-aged man asked Zhang Hao if he had the confidence to become a low-level assassin, Zhang Hao thought about it and shook his head! He decided to hide some of his strength!
Zhang Hao received his own Thief badge. When the middle-aged man asked him if he needed to log in with a nickname, Zhang Hao shook his head. The middle-aged man recorded his login identity as: Advanced Bandit 154.
He told Zhang Hao that he was the 154th Advanced Bandit in the entire Torres Neutral Nation. The 153rd Advanced Bandit had appeared ten years ago. There was disappointment and excitement in his words.
When Zhang Hao left the guild, he heard the middle-aged man's angry scolding,""That damned Magician's Guild, they actually sold us this magic array that can't be used normally, and almost caused our branch to lose a high-level Bandit. XXXX your ancestors, do you know how hard it is to find a high-level Bandit these days?!”
When Zhang Hao heard this, he shook his head and smiled. He felt that this person was quite interesting!
