Chereads / Dragon of the Root / Chapter 672 - Qualification

Chapter 672 - Qualification

A small number of refugees gathered in the open space in front of the gates of the holy city, about one or two hundred people.

Among the two hundred people, some were surrounded by a thin cloth, which was their "bed".

It seems that many people came here early, and it seems that they have lived here for a long time.

Fortunately, this place has become a singularity, and it is not too cold at night, otherwise these people can freeze to death with just that thin cloth.

However, Wu Ming was thinking about one thing now, wouldn't he be frozen here too?

However, God once again favored Wu Ming, the gates of the holy city opened, and it seemed that he had just arrived when the sacred selection began.

The luck that could be doubled in an instant was not covered up.

Seeing the gates of the Holy City open, the long-awaited refugees gathered in a frenzy.

Even the few refugees who came with Wu Ming couldn't contain their inner excitement at this moment, and staggered towards the crowd.

Wu Ming naturally had to pretend to be a bit more like a refugee, so he quickly walked towards the refugee group.

Immediately after, Wu Ming saw the gates of the Holy City opened.

A blonde haired man in white armor with a sword hanging from his waist came out with a team of fully armed knights.

The sword on the man's waist gave the impression of facing the sun, but the metaphor was correct, for the holy sword was the sister sword of King Arthur's holy sword Excalibur, the holy sword called Excalibur Galatine.

And this blonde haired man was also Gawain who wielded this sword and was known as the Sun Knight.

Wu Ming sighed and had to say that he couldn't greet an old friend he hadn't seen in a long time, and he might even become an enemy in the future. Wu Ming felt helpless again.

Although it was said that becoming a Servant gave the heroes a chance to atone for their regrets, it was more of a helplessness caused by meeting on the time axis.

Gawain, who became the Lion King's knight, might no longer be a noble Sun Knight, and Wu Ming estimated that the disappearance of the refugees who had left and never returned before they came to the holy city for the holy selection was also inseparable from Gawain.

However, what Gawain said next made Wu Ming confirm his guess.

"Everyone, I, Gawain, will still hold the Sacred selection ceremony this time. Next, I will explain to you guys the precautions regarding Sacred Selection. Gawain waved his hand, and the knights standing behind him moved swiftly.

In just a few seconds, these knights surrounded the group of refugees that Wu Ming was in, and it seemed that an important ceremony was about to take place.

However, this scene made Wu Ming frown.

This way, if these knights wanted to do anything to these refugees, these unarmed refugees who became fish on the cutting board – they would be slaughtered.

"When the holy selection begins, the highest tower in the holy city will emit a holy light, and the bodies of the chosen people will shine, and the hearts of these chosen people are the purest, and then they will have the opportunity to enter the holy city. The city's qualifications to live a carefree life, but those who are not chosen, their dirty hearts disqualify them from entering the holy city, the rules are like this, do you understand?"

Although Gawain's last sentence was a question, neither of these refugees said a word, nor dared to say a word.

And Gawain seemed to be familiar with the behavior of refugees who didn't dare to speak, so the question was just routine.

Next, it's time for the holy selection.

"Holy selection, start!"

With Gawain's command, the tower in the center of the holy city of Camelot shone.

This light made it like a laser, and it came to the gate of the holy city in an instant, shining on the group of refugees.

The sudden change caused turmoil in the refugee group, and the refugees began to panic to check if their bodies glowed and if they were qualified to enter the holy city to start a new life.

However, most of the people's bodies did not shine, not even the slightest change.

But most of the people found those whose bodies were shining, only three or four people.

This made the refugees feel fearful, there were so many of them that only three or four of them were qualified to enter the Holy City.

Doesn't this mean that they are actually people who are "dirty" at heart.

Those who had actually done a lot of bad things frowned in dissatisfaction, when they heard that only people with pure hearts were qualified to enter the Holy City, they had given up hope and just wanted to try their luck.

And those who don't do bad things, thinking that they are pure on the inside but haven't been chosen, they are utterly devastated.

This is the same as "you think you are a god but you are not even", which makes people very helpless, and sad.

However, Gawain who saw only three or four people shining, did not show any surprise, as if this was the same number of people being selected each time.

Then furthermore, those who were not selected had to be handed over to them.

On the side of Wu Ming, wearing a shabby robe, his body glowed, and he was separated from the people around him by a certain distance.

However, Wu Ming was definitely not human, and he was definitely a Servant, how could he be chosen.

The difficult condition for that light to choose is to be human.

In fact, when he saw the light emitted from the top of the tower, Wu Ming secretly used some means, performed some tricks, and captured some of the light.

Unsurprisingly, that ray of light was a ray of light from the holy spear.

Wu Ming's spiritual base couldn't really oppose the holy spear directly, but in order to detect the light of someone with a pure heart, he still had ways of cheating.

And because of this, Wu Ming was qualified to go to the Holy City.

And the people around Wu Ming isolated him.

After all, Wu Ming had to enter the Holy City, and it would be great if he could enter without a riot, so he didn't need to make himself so conspicuous.

The people around subconsciously moved away from Wu Ming after seeing his body glow.

The "chosen" Wu Ming was no longer like them, no longer a "human" like them, but a "real human".

Therefore, the people around them subconsciously move away from "others".

The same goes for the other chosen ones whose bodies start to glow, and those around them subconsciously drift away from them.

It was precisely because the other selected people had the same experience as Wu Ming, that he did not take such an outrageous act.

Unlike Wu Ming's incredible composure, those who were "alienated" all looked restless and nervous.

At this moment, Gawain spoke up.

"Congratulations to some of you, you have been chosen, and you are qualified to enter the Holy City for a new life."

After that, Gawain pointed at the door behind him as if he had stepped aside.

"Now, you can enter."

However, the chosen people, including Wu Ming, did not move, or the few people except him were a little overwhelmed.

Gawain also didn't care and waited quietly.

Then, one of the chosen people spoke up.

"That… can't I go in with my family?"

However, it was Gawain who suddenly became ruthless.

"Unfortunately you can't."
