In this year's knight election, a total of 193 graduates successfully joined the thirteen knight regiments.
After the election, there would be no restrictions on the new knights. They could go to the knight headquarters at any time to receive basic knight equipment and corresponding knight emblems.
The specific time to join and participate in formal training would be arranged by the knight regiments themselves.
The stricter Lionheart Knight Regiment and Hell Knight Regiment only gave the newcomers three days to rest. The more relaxed Steam Knight Regiment and Doom Knight Regiment would give the newcomers a week to a month to adjust their state.
In short, once they successfully graduated, they would only be under the management of the corresponding knight regiment.
It was important to note that the Secret Word Knights only recruited two graduates in this year's meeting.
One was Warren Nicholas, who received the attention of the whole city and won the first place.
The other was a library graduate who was ranked relatively low and did not have strong combat power, but his memory seemed to be particularly good and he could quickly draw a large number of magic arrays.
According to Captain Hugo, once he came to report to the knight regiment, there would be a lot of complicated work for Han Dong.
Considering Han Dong's special experience and performance in the election, there would be a lot of things to deal with after the election, so Han Dong was given a week to rest.
Otherwise, Captain Hugo would have dragged Han Dong to report to the headquarters as soon as the conference ended, and started working in 996 bald mode.
...
The next day.
Knight headquarters.
Han Dong was here to receive the basic knight equipment and emblems.
"This is your knight equipment and emblems. Please keep them well."
The emblems were naturally the "magnifying glass and question mark" of the Secret Word Knights. When attending various special occasions, receiving knight missions, or leaving the city, the emblems were necessary proof of identity.
As for the knight equipment.
Han Dong only received a set of [Archaeology Outer Clothing] made from "Magic Pattern Leather."
It was a gray and white single-breasted leather jacket, a pair of long pants with good insulation, and a pair of shoes that would not make a sound when walking, so as not to disturb the work of others in the knight regiment.
The outer clothing had a certain degree of pollution resistance to avoid contact with some unknown cultural relics outside the city, which would cause mental pollution.
The most important feature was that such an outfit had the "mental stimulation" characteristic.
With a cup of coffee every day, the clerks could work for ten hours without any reduction in efficiency.
Compared to the armor that most of the knights were equipped with, the Happy Overtime Suit was really low-class.
Although he had yet to report to the Secret Words Knights, Han Dong was already an official knight.
To be honest, Han Dong didn't reject the clerical job in the Secret Word Knights at all, especially after he heard about the Hybrid Demon [Slate] from Hugo.
Han Dong was personally very interested in any 'research' that involved unknown things.
Moreover, Han Dong had learned about Hugo's background from Mr. Black And White in advance. He had also seen Hugo's methods at the conference.
This' weakest 'knight regiment that was ranked at the bottom all year round must have an unspeakable secret.
Meanwhile.
Mia also received the basic equipment of the [Knights of Misfortune] from another reporting point.
It was a dark-colored close-fitting light armor.
It not only maintained the characteristics of the armor, but also highlighted Mia's figure.
"Darling, let's hurry out of the city for our honeymoon!"
Mia had already imagined all kinds of 'wonderful' scenes of the two of them. She couldn't help but clamp her legs together and reach out to hold Han Dong.
"When will your knight regiment officially start training?"
"Hehe … Deputy Commander Archimedes gave me two weeks to rest and gave me a semi-freestyle learning method so that I can continue to keep in touch with Teacher Witch.
So! I can always be with my darling. "
Mia had already changed into the dark-colored light armor and was heading to the city gate with Han Dong in a special crow carriage.
However, just as the carriage reached the civilian area, Han Dong sensed something and ordered the carriage to stop.
"What's wrong?"
Mia was in a state of 'fear', afraid that such a great opportunity would be ruined by some accident.
"Someone is following us …"
Upon hearing that someone dared to ruin their 'honeymoon trip', Mia pulled out her demon blade and was about to jump out of the carriage … However, she was immediately stopped by Han Dong.
"They should have been following us since we left the knight's headquarters. Let me take a look …"
Intuition told Han Dong that the target of the stalker was very clear. They were coming for him.
A carriage that looked ordinary but was actually embedded with a powerful steam system was parked by the roadside fifty meters away.
The door was open.
She took the initiative to signal Han Dong to get in and talk.
"Mia, come with me … Be honest. We'll leave the city after this matter is settled. It won't take long. "
"Oh …"
Mia put away her demon blade.
She didn't know if it was because she had been tricked by Han Dong too many times, but she felt that this' honeymoon trip 'was going to be ruined again.
They stepped into the carriage.
The exterior of the carriage looked like an ordinary wooden carriage, but the interior was full of orderly metal lines.
At the same time, there was a gear mark of the Steam Knights on the back.
A well-dressed middle-aged man wearing a noble's wig was sitting in the carriage … Even though he was wrapped in noble's clothes, it still couldn't hide this person's burly figure.
"Mr. Newton!"
The stalker was the deputy commander of the Steam Knights, Congreve Newton.
After knowing this person's identity, Mia immediately calmed down.
The witch was dissatisfied with Mr. Black And White. When she was alone with Mia, her beloved disciple, she often mentioned that the Holy City would still function normally without Mr. Black And White.
This was because Mr. Black And White wasn't the only 'wise' person in the Holy City.
This man who followed his patron and handled all the affairs of the Steam Knights was also recognized as a wise person in the Holy City.
Although the possibility of Mia meeting this person was very small, the witch still warned Mia to be careful of this man.
"Warren Nicholas … Before you leave the city, I have a few things to discuss with you on behalf of Mr. Patron."
"Okay."
"According to Mr. Patron's and my plan, this year's Knight Conference should have been first place so that we can fully promote the 'Steam Technology Human Body Transformation' to all knight orders.
But because of you, we had to postpone this plan.
Of course, it was also because of you that we discovered some shortcomings of this technology.
My patron is also very interested in you, so he asked me to collect information about you in private.
As luck would have it, I discovered something very interesting. "
Han Dong didn't say anything and just listened quietly.
"Since three years ago, you have bought a large number of construction materials and medicinal materials in installments. The purchase interval is about one to three months.
Combined with your personal characteristics, it is speculated that you are building some kind of large-scale biological laboratory.
Such a large biological laboratory can't be built on the second floor of the Holy City or above … It can only exist in the civilian area.
But I didn't find out your land use rights in the civilian area. In addition, you rarely go in and out of the civilian area. Your family has also moved away.
Therefore, Mr. Patron and I suspect that your laboratory may not be in the city. "
