Chapter 422 – God's test!

Although it was said before the test that the instrument should be damaged, Karun was not sure if he could do it, but when he put his hand into the water tank, he became more confident.

Because this was a testing instrument configured for the recruitment process of the Knights Order, the upper limit was not very high, at least not to an unreasonable extent for Karun.

The Eye of Order circulated, and the power of the soul was released. It can be said that even in normal combat, Karun rarely mobilized all of his soul power like this, because there was never such a quiet and suitable environment, and his opponent would not stand in front of him foolishly watching him gather strength.

The water tank could not withstand Karun's soul power, and the liquid inside could no longer present this level of soul power. After a brief silence, a strong outbreak followed directly.

The "mediocrity" in the physical examination forced Karun to deliberately show himself at this time.

The only oversight was that the quality of this water tank was really poor. The exploding porcelain shards and splashing liquid were everywhere. If Karun had not promptly retracted his hand into the sleeve of his robe and dodged to the side, and if the robe itself did not have a certain degree of physical protection, Karun's face and hands might have been cut open by now.

Even so, it was inevitable that his body was soaked through, and the liquid was still sticky.

Karun stood up, shook the jelly off his robe, and everything around him quieted down.

The medic responsible for recording fell to the ground, with a clear wound on his face.

Karun reached out his hand, and the medic reached out his.

"Examination report," Karun reminded.

"Oh, right."

The medic awkwardly withdrew his hand, quickly wrote the highest evaluation in the examination report, and then handed the report to Karun.

Karun took the examination report and reached out with his other hand to help the medic up.

"Sorry for startling you."

"It's an instrument problem, an instrument problem..."

The team members let out a warm cheer mixed with restraint and modesty. They were not surprised by Karun's strength, nor were they surprised that Karun could cause such a situation.

It was just: I know, I see, and I'm happy too.

The director and others around Filomena were stunned. Other medics around her wanted to persuade Karun. Many of the medics in this department were from the Knight Order's formation mage sequence, and they were enthusiastic about discovering good talents for their own troops.

But the director was indeed the director. He immediately realized that if a genius appeared in a group of people, it could be understood, but if two appeared together, it would be a problem. Moreover, the evaluations of the people in front were basically at the excellent level.

The director looked at Filomena and asked, "What group are you from?"

Richard, who was standing next to her, spoke up: "We are the newly established Order of the Whip."

The newly established Order of the Whip?

The director looked around, raised his hand to stop his subordinates who were still trying to recruit people, and said to them in the face of their confusion:

"Haven't you seen the documents? The Order of the Whip is composed of outstanding young people drawn from various systems. How could we possibly let you recruit them back."

After explaining, the director waved his hand to indicate what the others should do, and quietly took out a cigarette to light it, continuing to watch the excitement.

In the following series of soul-related tests, Karun did not hold back, and to be safe, he was always the last to be tested.

But because the incident with the water tank exploding had been known to other departments, the responsible medics in each department increased the protection of the testing instruments.

In addition, Karun no longer conducted the tests with the intention of damaging the instruments. He would also considerately ask the medic conducting the test, "Is that enough?" when it reached a certain point.

Therefore, in the subsequent major soul examinations, Karun received a score of "11 points," with the full score being 10 points, meaning his talent was outstanding to the point of overflowing.

Because there are age requirements for the Knight Order's recruitment physical examination, non-war time Order believers under the age of 23, under normal circumstances, those who can score "11" points will directly alarm the current senior officers of the relevant troops in the Knight Order to recruit them.

The reason is that even if the physical examination is conducted here, it is not necessary to report to the local Knight Order. Knight Orders stationed in other major regions are also applicable. Furthermore, there is also competition between different troops within the same Knight Order.

Although the Order of the Gods has always had high standards for controlling the Knight Order, within the various troops of a Knight Order, there is also a deep influence in other departments outside the Knight Order.The Gu Man family has its own special nature, but under normal circumstances, there is definitely deep communication between the large area formation department and the knight formation division. There is definitely contact between the Church Hospital and the Knight Hospital. The Monster Research Institute where Aisley's parents are located was actually separated from the Knight Order and is still conducting monster research to meet the needs of the Knight Order.

However, this time, because of the director's reasons, he first suppressed these reports to save others from making a wasted trip.

The last soul test project is the "Soul Probe."

The purpose is twofold: first, to see if the soul has any "defects," and second, to see if you are "possessed."

In the era of the divine war, both sides of the war could use all kinds of tricks, and the attachment and manipulation of souls on the personnel of the other side was not a new thing.

In mythological narratives, there is even a battle recorded where a deity's soul was attached to another main god, directly causing the failure of a battle by detonating the divine formation.

Karen was not worried about this test. Even if he didn't believe in himself, he should believe in the Order Throne, right?

After being ordered by the Order Throne, if he were to be found to have a problem with his soul by the Order Knight Hospital, then one could only suspect that the Order Church had already been "peacefully transformed."

The testing instrument is an eye, imprinted on the ceiling, surrounded by a magic array. The person being tested stands in the circle below, and the giant eye on the ceiling will open, take a look at you, and then close. The military doctor standing in another circle next to it can receive the results and give an evaluation.

This eye should be a branch of a "divine artifact."

The function of a complete divine artifact is extremely powerful. To give an inappropriate analogy, they are like a standalone system that can be distributed to various branches for support.

Just like getting the certification of the "Scythe of War," it is also a manifestation of the expanded use of divine artifacts.

So once a divine artifact is labeled "damaged," even if it's just the slightest damage, its value and effectiveness will plummet, because a little damage cannot support such a large-scale branch application.

Muri walked into the circle, and the eye above opened, took a look at him, and then closed.

In the other circle, the military doctor opened his eyes, first looked at the front part of Muri's medical examination report, and then curiously asked, "How did you do it?"

Then, he saw the name column, Muri. Benda.

He hesitated for a moment, then handed the medical examination report back to Muri, and didn't ask anything else.

Everyone's experiences are different, and everyone's experiences are different. Even the military doctors here have different sensitivities to names and family surnames.

Karen didn't know about the Benda family until he met Muri.

Muri walked back with the medical examination report, smiled at Karen, and his physical condition was all very good, which was normal. After all, he came from the Benda family, and he didn't have much presence in the family, and the family wouldn't be foolish enough not to give him basic resources.

And his soul was also excellent, all thanks to Karen. After all, he hadn't absorbed Gaitanbert's "gift" yet. As a warrior, if he could make up for the shortcomings in his soul, his future development would be even brighter.

Next up was Richard. After the "scan," the evaluation he received was slightly above average.

Karen noticed that Memphis beside him had already become numb.

Perhaps he had already comforted himself in his heart, thinking that as a father, it was enough for his son to be healthy and free from illness and pain.

Well, Richard had already achieved that.

One by one, when it was Aisley's turn, the eye above opened, and then stayed open. Karen felt that it was almost about to shed tears, if it could.

For others, it only took ten seconds, but Aisley took a full five minutes.

When the eye above closed, the military doctor responsible for giving the evaluation in the other circle opened his eyes, sweat dripping from his face, and then he gasped heavily.

One of his colleagues hurried to support him, and the other quickly handed him an energy potion. After drinking two bottles in a row, the military doctor said to Aisley, "You almost sent me to the First Knight Order."

The colleague next to him said, "Wake up, you don't have the qualifications for that."

Another colleague said, "Forget it, I've never heard that the First Knight Order needs doctors."

Aisley stuck out her tongue. She knew exactly where the problem was - the densely packed "tattoo stickers" on her arm. These tattoo stickers caused the eye to probe one monster after another, equivalent to the workload of dozens of people for the military doctor. It was already commendable that he didn't go into shock immediately.

"Very solid foundation," the military doctor gave his evaluation. "From the Research Institute?"

For such a young girl, with so many monster imprints on her body, it couldn't have been done by herself. It must be related to her parents, and her parents must be professionals in the same field.

"Yes, that's right.""Hehe, remember to tell me in advance next time, okay? There won't be a next time in the short term anyway."

"You've worked hard."

Aisley took her medical report and walked away.

Next was Philomena.

Philomena's spiritual level, even if she swallowed the Muri of Gaitanbert, couldn't catch up.

Her growth environment and bloodline, if it weren't for a powerful soul, she would have gone crazy long ago.

With a strong innate bloodline, she endured constant torment from her grandmother since childhood.

Finally, it was Karun's turn. He stepped into the circle, opened his eyes above, closed them three seconds later, much faster than everyone before.

Another doctor who had just entered the circle to evaluate him looked at Karun in surprise.

"Is there a problem, doctor?" Karun asked.

"No, there isn't. A very powerful soul, and a very compatible aura of order. You must be a devout follower of the order god, otherwise you wouldn't be able to have such a strong aura of order on your soul."

"Of course, I have always believed that no one in this world is more loyal to the great god of order than I am."

After receiving the medical report, Karun walked out of the room.

The director did not follow, but instead walked in and asked, "What's the matter with the last one?"

"A very powerful soul, higher than everyone before, I have to give him a score of '11'."

"So fast?"

"Director, I just explained, no lies or flattery, the aura of order on his soul is very strong, so strong that 'Eye' is very reassured, there is no need to look further, completely pure."

"No impurities?"

"Yes, he reminds me of those old and devout followers of order I have encountered before. They have been devoutly devoted to the order their whole lives, but even for them, it is very difficult to achieve such a pure aura of the soul."

...

The last check was faith, also known as the "political review" of the Order God Church, but it did not require investigation, visits, or certificates.

In a room as large as a basketball court, there were three small black houses, each with only one door in and out, covered with curtains and surrounded by a faint black mist, blocking all external probing.

In fact, the hospital was not operating at full capacity at the moment, and the normal recruitment period had not yet arrived, so most other departments only had one instrument open, but here there were three houses, indicating that this process would take longer.

When Karun and the others came over, an old man was sitting here drinking tea, and a few young people were cleaning the place.

The old man was not wearing a white coat, but a robe of the Order God. He glanced at Karun and the others who came in, and spat out some tea leaves to his side.

"You all have your medical reports in hand. There are many small items in the faith section, but don't worry, they can all be resolved here. There is no second department.

Let me introduce myself first. My name is Daves, I am the vice president of this hospital, but you don't need to remember my name. Although I am one of the eight vice presidents of this knight hospital, I only have a title. I can't control anyone in this hospital except for these interns...

After all, the existence of my department is only used during recruitment. Who would come here for faith treatment after being injured, whether in peacetime or in wartime?

Hehe, let's get to the point.

These three houses are the 'interrogation houses'. I was notified when you were being checked earlier, and I opened these three houses to start warming them up.

There is a formation buried under the ground in this house, and there is also a feather. It is a branch of Lord Tiranus's goose feather pen."

In the myth of "The Light of Order", Tiranus is one of the four attendants of the Order God, he is low-key and has no great achievements, but he has established the Order God Church.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread dot com".

It is said that the first edition of "The Light of Order" was written by him with a goose feather pen.

The selection experience of Karun and Richard in the York City District was in the Tiranus Grand Hall.

Tiranus's goose feather pen should also be a divine artifact. Although the Order God Church only has the one god of order and no branch gods, any one of the four attendants and the 12 Order Knights, taken alone, would not be inferior to the branch gods of other orthodox religions.

Daves coughed and spat out a thick phlegm into the trash can next to him.

From this, Karun could tell that the old man had smoked too much.

But at this time, no one would foolishly go up to give the old man a cigarette. It was understandable to walk through the previous process and seek some leniency, but here, it was important not to reveal anything. It was the least important, but also the biggest taboo.

"The goose feather pen has a mind of its own. Of course, it can't chat with you like a normal person, but the only thing it can do is communicate with you in terms of faith.

Please believe in its ability, and more importantly, believe in its authority. I don't know if you will change in the future, but at this moment, you cannot deceive it.""I know you're not here for conscription. In fact, I'm quite puzzled as to why you even bothered coming here. It could have ended already. Are you seeking a perfect and satisfactory conclusion?

Of course, that's possible, and I definitely support it. But I still have to remind you to ask yourselves, are you truly loyal to the God of Order? Skipping this test won't cause any issues, and getting a score isn't all that useful. But if the score is too low and you fail... heh, that would be a big problem."

After Davens finished speaking, he continued to sip his tea. After a while, he said, "Have you all made up your minds? Come on then, three at a time, one person per room. You'll know once you're inside."

Alfred approached Karun and whispered, "Young Master?"

"Do you want to go?"

"Yes, Young Master. Since my body has been certified, there's no reason my soul shouldn't be elevated."

"Alright." Karun agreed.

Alfred stood beside Karun.

"Then I'll fill in." Richard stepped forward.

The first group to participate in the test consisted of Karun, Alfred, and Richard.

Davens stood up and waved his hand to activate the array. Suddenly, the holy hymns of the Church of Order filled the environment, and an aura of sanctity and solemnity flowed forth.

"Rest assured, in this test, I can only obtain the results given to me by the esteemed Quill. I won't know what you've discussed or confessed to the Quill inside.

Because we allow doubt, skepticism, and being lost, the fundamental purpose of this test is still salvation.

Just like the priests in the confessionals of the church outside, they will surely keep your secrets. Oh, at least, the Quill has much more professional ethics than those priests.

When you leave this room, the Quill will erase its previous memories, so relax, communicate freely, and reveal everything without reservation.

Additionally, once you're inside and mentally connected with the Quill, the speed of communication will become very fast. You might feel like only half an hour has passed inside, but in reality, you might have been talking for four or five hours.

The exchange of thoughts is always so swift; otherwise, how could sparks be ignited? Heh.

Alright,

come,

the three of you, please enter."

Karun and Alfred bowed to Davens, showing the political officer the respect he deserved.

Davens returned the gesture;

Richard was two beats slow. He had already taken two steps before he saw what was happening and stepped back to bow as well.

Mr. Memphis sighed as he watched this scene from behind. He realized that every time he saw his son standing next to Karun, he would easily become irritated.

Karun walked into the room, and the light dimmed instantly, followed by a feeling of complete isolation from the outside world.

There was a chair and a table inside. Karun sat down on the chair.

On the table lay "The Light of Order," which opened automatically, and the ethereal shadow of a quill pen emerged, exuding an aura of solemnity and profundity.

...

Richard took a nervous deep breath. At this moment, even the most devout follower of Order might feel tense. His fists clenched, and he was already sweating.

The Quill, looking down on Richard with authority, spoke:

"Let me ask you a few questions."

...

Alfred took out his notebook, holding a pen, crossed his legs, and looked at the Quill floating in front of him. He took a deep breath and smiled; he really liked this atmosphere.

He wanted to remember this feeling, so the next time he had a chance to recruit new followers, he could create a similar scenario.

The Quill spoke to Alfred in a calm tone:

"Let's start by discussing the first topic."

...

After a series of rapid flickers and tugs, the shadow of the Quill in front of Karun finally settled down. However, Karun had been sitting for a long time without the Quill speaking.

Was the device broken? Or was there a problem with the array?

Karun leaned forward, puzzled, and asked, "Excuse me, may we begin?"

The Quill responded:

"Please, proceed."
