Chapter 1439: Chapter 1148: Are You Out of Your Mind_2
"Hey, are you coming or not? If you’re not coming, I’ll consider it my win," Long Yi put down the Alloy Greatsword in his hand and said.
You win?
The examiner sneered in his heart, I was just a little overconfident, dealing with you would only require me to be a bit more serious, you’d be nothing!
"Still not saying anything!? Fine, I win! Ou Ye!" Long Yi, leaning on the Alloy Greatsword with one hand, excitedly raised his other hand and turned around to shout. But not only did no one cheer with him, there were even cries of alarm!
"Watch out!"
Bang!
The examiner and Long Yi collided, and it seemed that the examiner’s energy sword stabbed out from behind Long Yi. But to everyone’s surprise, an Alloy Greatsword also appeared stabbed out from the examiner’s back!
Whom—
The light from the energy sword slowly faded, Long Yi stepped back twice, then released his grip on the sword handle. The examiner, with an Alloy Greatsword plunged into his chest, staggered back a few steps before falling heavily to the ground without any echo.
"I don’t understand, you choose to kill yourself because you lost to me? Is this your honor?" Long Yi still asked blankly, with a small wound on his side left by the energy sword, regretfully the examiner’s energy sword had failed to hit its target, instead, Long Yi coincidently collided with the Greatsword—of course, this coincidence was a result orchestrated by Long Yi himself.
Everyone around went mad, suicide? It was obvious he tried to assassinate you! He just had the bad luck of not succeeding!
But at this moment, no one spoke, because a regular army examiner had just been killed by an idiot, and such an occurrence would make anyone’s brain short-circuit.
"Now, I’m definitely going to become famous," Long Yi said to Elsa in the contract.
"I guess I’m going to be unlucky," Elsa said with a laugh.
The incident was quickly reported, and when the commanding officer of the two examiners heard that one examiner had an arm chopped off, and another was killed on the spot, he burst with anger.
According to the rules, after advancing, the two promoted members should go directly to the examiner’s troops if the examiner agreed. But now, that commanding officer directly issued an order—Aisa and Henki, immediately promoted to regular army, to report to their commanding officer at once!
In the military, accidental deaths were common, and besides accidental deaths, being too weak was also a reason. But what was the reason for the soldier killed by Long Yi? Bad luck? At that moment, a whole camp of recruits saw it was the unfortunate fool who charged and then hurled himself onto Henki’s Greatsword.
Could he be that foolish? No one believed it.
Anzong, the Group Leader of the Third Group where Long Yi and Elsa were, didn’t believe it either.
Initially, it was Anzong who had sent those two, not because of their strength but because they were usually indolent, not so skilled, and particularly troublesome. So Anzong liked making them run errands. As long as training wasn’t involved, they too were happy to run around.
But this time, they ran into a fatal mishap.
This was truly unexpected because, based on his understanding of the recruit camp, even if a few exceptionally talented soldiers emerged now and then, there shouldn’t be a genius of this level.
Especially when he heard Henki, the murderer, was previously a fool everyone pushed around, he found it even more ludicrous. In the follow-up investigations, he also discovered a connection between Henki and La Sang, the instructor of the sixth squad of the recruit camp. Thus he understood, Henki was very likely an opportunity for La Sang. Anzong didn’t have any particular feelings about La Sang since he had always been military-born and was uninterested in the feuds among the traditional nobility. But for Henki, who could kill a regular army member, he was indeed very interested.
And now, Aisa and Henki stood before him.
"Tell me, what exactly happened at that time, Aisa, you go first," Anzong sat behind a large desk, flanked by high-ranking military officers, all wanting to understand what exactly had occurred.
Elsa spoke very methodically; she described the situation at the time in a very simple and concise manner, omitting no details and adding nothing superfluous. In fact, Anzong had already grasped this part of the content thoroughly through various channels; he simply wanted to hear their own accounts.
"So, he died by your sword entirely by accident?" Anzong asked Henki.
"Of course—not," Long Yi dragged out his tone and said.
Not?
Everyone thought it was just an accident, and an accident was also the least troublesome and most easily accepted explanation. Yet now, Henki said no!
"If it wasn’t an accident, then what was it?" Anzong asked gravely.
"I killed him," Long Yi said.
"You killed him?" Anzong’s tone slightly heightened.
"Yes, I did."
"How did you kill him?"
"He charged at me, attacking from behind, trying to kill me. I thought such a person should not be allowed to live, as he would surely cause me trouble in the future. I’m not very smart, I can handle direct attacks, but if there are plots and schemes, I might not survive. So I decided to kill him. When he charged at me, I drew up my sword, he had no time to dodge because he thought he had already hit me, he definitely wouldn’t give up the chance to kill me. And if he didn’t intend to kill me at that time, he surely wouldn’t have died."
