Chapter 251 The Way of Trial

The visitor was dressed in khaki clothes and a hat of the same color. As soon as he saw Xinjie, he greeted him.

His clothes were wrinkled, as if they hadn't been wrinkled clean after washing. After greeting with Xinjie, his eyes turned to Saber again, "Dumb girl, you're here too!"

"Do you... know him?"

When Nanali saw that he seemed to be very familiar with Xinjie and Saber, she couldn't help asking that this man's tone was strange and he didn't look like a serious person.

"I've met you before," Xinjie nodded and waved to someone, "Mr. Hank, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why did you come here?"

This person is the detective Hank that Xinjie, Saber and Tosaka Rin met when they went to save the granddaughter of the wizard Feng Nu. At that time, he was investigating the terrorist brigade and told Xinjie some things about the ancient history of the Kingdom of France. He seemed to know a lot. However, when it comes to the most critical opener, I won't say more.

As soon as he saw him, Xinjie remembered that whether it was the priest of Astia Town, the evil bird man he met after defeating the mythical beast, or the Hank in front of him, they obviously knew a lot, but they didn't tell themselves. And they always refuse for the same reason: "I will tell you when you become the starter."

He also learned about the opener through many ways during this period of time, but he still knew little about it until three days ago when the priest of Astia notified the adventurer who had reached the royal class to participate in the trial to prove the identity of the opener.

"Ha ha, you look like you want to ask! Well, since it's a kind of fate to see you here again, I'll tell you something! But what should I tell you first? Let me think about it... Well, I'll tell you some basic things first!"

"First of all, let me tell you about the way of Astia's trial: the town of Jenova has always been the entrance to the way of Astia's trial. But because the demon clan has occupied the way of trial, it is now forbidden for ordinary people to pass. Only the priests of Astia can pass. Of course, people like you certainly didn't ask. Those demons on the road are definitely not your opponents.

"What is Astia?" Saber suddenly interrupted and asked, and she still somewhat cared about Hank calling her a dull girl before.

Hanke patiently explained: "Astia is the only independent region in the Kingdom of France with autonomy. The high priest standing at the top also has an absolute voice in his own meetings. Therefore, his status can be said to be second only to the king. The high priest Blumer is now the highest priest in Astia. It is said that his wisdom and personality are the best of all the great priests.

Astia is one of the most dangerous front-line groups studying demons in recent years. Because of their wisdom, France has repelled countless large-scale demon attacks. Therefore, without them, it is impossible for us to continue to fight with the demon clan. It can also be said that the people who are most familiar with the demon clan in this country are the gods of Astia.

In recent years, the number of demons has not only increased, but also become stronger and stronger. Therefore, the current situation is that we humans have been beaten to a disadvantage. But I heard that the saviors who can save mankind are the starters.

It's the opener again. Nanali immediately asked, "What is the opener? Tell me something about the opener?"

"Hahaha! I can't tell you this! Baby."

"Is it like this again?" Xinjie had already guessed that this would be the result. "So why did Mr. Hank come to Jenova this time? Is he still investigating the terrorist brigade?"

"Well, well! Of course not. How can I focus on one thing all the time? This time I'm here to investigate other things.

"What's the matter?"

"This is a prohibited matter!"

“......”

"Well, don't do this. I'll tell you when you become the opener. Don't let me wait too long. I flashed. I came with the wind and went by the wind. La la la la la, la la la la la la la la!"

Hank ran away while singing.

The three looked at his back. After a long time, Nanali said, "He should be sick, right?"

"I think so, Ajie, what do you think?"

"...There must be a shocking secret behind this matter."

A few days later.

"Are we leaving now?" Gene still yawned sleepily.

"Gien, your dress is..."

Xinjie looked at Gene, who wrapped himself tightly in armor, and asked puzzledly.

"Ah, that's what you mean! Wasn't it very cold when I came here two days ago, so of course I'm fully prepared this time, Dangdang!"

Looking at Gene, whose whole body was wrapped in heavy armor with only a pair of eyes, Xinjie turned his head and said to the others, "Let's go."

"Hey! What kind of look are you! Make it clear to me!"

After seeing Xinjie's performance, Gene said dissatisfiedly, of course, no one paid attention to him, and everyone followed Xinjie. Only Komuro Xiaoxiao turned around and gave him a helpless look.

"Only those who can pass here have been tested by the opener of our Astia priest."

When the group came to the entrance of the west side of Jenova Town along the winding path, they were stopped.

"The opener's trial refers to the Bezrem maze," Xinjie looked at the people behind him and said, "We should have completed the trial."

"Please tell me your names and I want to verify it." As the priest said, he took out paper and pen from his arms.

"Xinjie."

"Nanali."

"Saber."

"Rin Farsaka."

"There is hope in Changmen."

"Snow Dragon Soul."

"Gin."

"Lion."

"Komuro filial piety."

"Guimu Guima."

"Sorry, you have indeed passed the trial." After everyone reported their names, the priest of Astia carefully checked and found that these people were indeed on the list, and behind the names of Xinjie and Nagato Youxi, they were annotated in conspicuous large font: "The highest potential!"

It turns out that this person is Xinjie. As the priest of Astia, he naturally knows the names of Xinjie and Nagato Youxi, who are the two people who have really completed the trial. To be precise, other people who can complete the trial mission and qualify for the second transfer have benefited from them.

"Please go in. If you all have the will to save the country and the people, go and meet Lord Brumel of the temple. However, I want to remind you that there are many demons in the way of trial. You should be careful.

"Thank you for the reminder."

After thanking the priest for his kind reminder, the group entered the way of trial.

Originally, as the only road to Astia, the original way of trial is very safe. Many people from all over the country come to visit the temple through this principle every year, but since it was occupied by the demons a few years ago, only Astia priests are allowed to pass.

"Why didn't they drive away the demons here?"

Before a black bear rushed in front of several people, it was nailed to the ground by a long arrow. Nanali gracefully put away her bow and asked.

"I'm not sure. The people of Astia should also have their own considerations, right?" Several meteorites fell from the sky and hit the strange blue plant. Rin Tosaka withdrew his hand and turned his head and said.

"Red-eye black bear, beast bear family, attribute fire 2 wind 8, human magic grass, plant grass family, attribute fire 8 water 2." Xinjie closed the picture book in his hand and said.

The way of trial was not long. It only took more than ten minutes for the group to come to the Astia Temple. As for the demons on the road, as Hank said - there is no threat at all.

The Astia Temple is magnificent and magnificent, which makes people feel extremely sacred at a sight. More importantly, it is built on the clouds. This is the most miratic building Xinjie has ever seen in this world. Should it be said that it is worthy of Astia?

"Welcome to Astia, Lord Christopher is waiting for you."

Maybe it has been notified that as soon as they arrived at the temple, a priest came out to receive them. When he took them to the inner hall of the temple, he also introduced them to the origin of the name Astia:

"The name of Astia comes from the spiritual peak Astia, which is the mountain you saw when you just came in."

"What is that?"

When she just entered the hall, Nanali saw three statues standing side by side, as if they were all women, and couldn't help asking.

After hearing Nanali's question, the priest took a look at the three statues and suddenly realized that he introduced: "These are the statues of the three goddesses of the 12 gods. They are the goddesses who manage time - on the left is Finia, on the right is Arenoa, and Karen in the middle."

Karen, that is Liyong's wife. Xinjie knew what happened. He carefully looked at the three statues and found that the three sisters were really beautiful, but it was difficult to explain the four-year-old thing. Maybe it was only based on the imagination of later generation.

After all, when he returned to 4,000 years ago, the hammer war was over, and he had never seen what Karen looked like.

"Huh? Why hasn't Christopher's sacrifice arrived yet? Wait a minute, and I'll invite him here.

After waiting for a while, the priest found that Christopher had not arrived, so he let Xinjie and others stay here, and he hurried into the apse.

"Who is it? Snougly, come out!"

Shortly after he left, Rin Tosaka felt that someone was hiding near them and immediately took out the magic gem in his hand.

"Oh, girl, we meet again!"

Surprisingly, with the voice of Rin Farsaka, there was indeed a person who came out of the dark, but they knew this person.
