Do not confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 17 Lan Qi's debut is a heavyweight operation

When Lan Qi also cooperated with the order of the examination room and stepped into the giant void gate under the guidance of the examiner, he suddenly felt as if he was thrown into a dark room where people lost their five senses.

It was completely dark, I couldn't see anything, I couldn't even hear my own heartbeat.

Gradually, like a singularity in the darkness, the only bright spot dotted in the field of vision, followed by comprehensible characters rushing towards the face like shooting stars——

[Welcome to the artificially created and simulated shadow world supported by the technical support of the Magic Academy. 】

[Note: The content of this assessment is a practical simulation of the shadow world, and there will be no life-threatening in the simulated shadow world. 】

[After the failure of the Shadow World or the death of the candidate, they will be automatically ejected from the Shadow World. 】

[However, you will likely experience death and pain, not limited to more frightening scenes such as falling off a cliff and beheading. 】

【…】

[May I ask if you have read the above items and agree to enter the world of artificial shadows? 】

【Continue/Exit】

Lan Qi didn't swipe the button.

Instead, he carefully read the entire instruction manual of the artificial shadow world startup terminal.

Only then did he move his finger to the [Continue] side.

He remembered reading in books that if he died in the real Shadow World, the challenger would also die.

Therefore, in Lan Qi's understanding, the real Shadow World is an extremely dangerous place, absolutely different from this artificial Shadow World with protection mechanisms.

Moreover, the laws and regulations of the Hutton Kingdom also clearly stated: Newcomers often need to practice more in the artificially developed simulated shadow world, get a very high evaluation, and pass the evaluation and assessment of the Kingdom Alliance Council, in order to be able to challenge the real shadow world. license.

Even so, the death rate in the world of real shadows is still high.

It can be seen how dangerous the Shadow World is.

Fortunately, the artificial shadow world used for the exam is equivalent to the practice mode, which is quite safe.

"The examiner mentioned that the subject of the exam is 'wisdom and character'..."

"Then I must give full play to my wisdom and xinxing to the extreme, so as not to experience the feeling of death in the artificial shadow world."

Lan Qi thought to himself.

As he touched [Continue], ripples appeared on the silver-white light curtain, spreading rapidly at the fingertips, disappearing under the text, and new content seemed to emerge.

Before he could see it, it was like falling rapidly from the sky above the world.

Accompanied by a sense of weightlessness, Lan Qi felt as if his whole body was suddenly immersed in a whole new world!

soon.

The surroundings light up quickly.

The scene filled Lan Qi's field of vision in an instant.

It was also at this moment that the bone-piercing chill hit, like a ruthless sharp knife, directly approaching the heart.

He felt the temperature plummet, and the whole world was frozen.

The blood seemed to be solidified, and the frosty air could easily penetrate the skin.

"Huha! What the hell kind of place is this!"

Lan Qi's exhaled breath almost condensed into ice crystals in an instant.

He could only grit his teeth, resisting the piercing pain in the cold wind.

He found himself standing on a snowfield.

The vast expanse of snow covered the ground, and the sound of howling wind and snow filled the sky and the earth, making his brain buzz!
At first glance, the sky was leaden gray, with thick clouds blocking the sun.

The cold wind rolled up the snowflakes all over the sky, flying in the air, sometimes gathering and sometimes scattering, making the whole snow-white world look psychedelic and harsh.

"My lord, we will be at their house soon!"

It seemed to be an old voice shouting hysterically, fighting against the wind and snow.

Lan Qi turned around following the sound, and behind him was an old man in cotton clothes, and a heavily armored knight in silver and white armor were also walking hard in the snow and fog.

Although Lan Qi didn't know what the old man meant for the time being.

But he soon saw clearly that standing in the wind and snow was a small village.

It seems to be a gemstone left in the vast snow.

And I am in this village.

At the same time, the information of Shadow World also appeared in front of my eyes——

【Shadow World: The Hidden Flame of Winter】

[Level: Tier [-]]

[The number of challengers is 1 people]

[The gap between the heart of doing good and the power of doing good is called benevolence and righteousness. It is stupid to enforce benevolence and righteousness, but there are always people who are willing to carry it through to the end. 】

[Winter is approaching, as a nobleman on the northern frontier, your territory is currently facing a financial deficit, and you have very little money left. 】

[When you stopped by this village, you heard the village chief said that a case of theft of a magic stove occurred in the village today. 】

[Recently, there have been severe blizzards. If the magic stove is not recovered, the three members of this family may be frozen to death tonight. 】

[Mission Objective: Please help this family solve their predicament before dark (within 1 hour), so that they can survive this cold winter safely. 】

[Note: As a nobleman of the Holy Nation and a believer of the Holy Liturgy Church, your bottom line is that you must never violate the law, never harm civilians, and never deceive civilians, otherwise, the church around you who knows your details will execute the sentence The judge will punish you. 】

[Note: Correspondingly, if a criminal act is discovered, the execution officer will also assist you in giving the criminal the corresponding punishment. 】

After understanding the requirements of this exam, Lan Qi looked forward.

Not far away, there really is a house made of wood, the roof is covered with thick snow, as if hidden in this pure white and flawless world.

Then the old man behind him must be the village chief, and the knight in the silver armor is the executioner.

Lan Qi did not rush to the house in front of him, but analyzed the current situation a little bit.

Now that I am an aristocrat of this inexplicable country with strict restrictions, some of the most simple and crude customs clearance methods will definitely not work.

For example, you can't directly grab supplies from other families to help this family.

Unless he is confident that he can defeat this terrifying executioner.

Maybe try and die.

As for taking this family to the village chief's house for a squeeze, they can survive tonight, but not the whole winter.

Obviously not in line with the mission objectives.

If you forcibly order which household to accept this family for a whole winter.

This kind of abuse of power to make doves occupy magpies' nests is also illegal with a high probability.

"Sure enough, ordinary cleverness won't work in this shadow world, and the shortcuts are all blocked."

Lan Qi muttered to himself in the snowstorm.

After a while, his cheeks were reddened with a thin layer of frost.

When he was about to move again, he only felt that the joints of his limbs were stiff in the severe cold, and it became more and more difficult to move.

Even wearing heavy aristocratic winter clothes, they couldn't stop the icy cold.

Immediately, Lan Qi also realized that according to the physical fitness of the candidates, the time for activities on the outdoor snow field is actually very limited.

Aimless searching will inevitably bury oneself in this wind and snow.

"Let's go to this family first to investigate the clues."

He quickly quickened his pace and walked towards the wooden house in front of him.

……

In a spacious and bright meeting room in the main building of the Sage Academy, the seats and tables are arranged in the form of round tables, and several large round tables surround the central projection screen.

There are five or six teachers in a group sitting on each table. They are either watching the magic screen seriously or actively communicating with others.

This is more of a seminar or a presentation than a meeting.

They are carefully recording the highlights and details of each candidate in this exam, and exchanging opinions with other teachers from time to time.

On the screen, the scene of the candidates after entering the world of artificial shadows was clearly displayed.

All candidates, without exception, progressed slowly.

After they went to the house, they found out from the couple that there was a strange sound outside the window on the night of the theft, and then the door of the house seemed to be blown open by the wind and snow, and then the temperature in the house dropped sharply.

When the couple tremblingly walked out of the bedroom, they found that the magic stove had disappeared, and there were some footprints outside the house, which should belong to a tall adult male, but they were soon covered by snow.

As for asking about the little girl at home, the niece adopted by the couple, she seemed to know something, but no matter how much she chatted with her, she would not speak.

So some candidates chose to go to other villagers to investigate clues, and some candidates tried to find a way to start with the abnormality in the little girl.

Of course, some candidates who were not rigorous in reviewing the questions thought they were smart and died inexplicably under the sword of the executioner——

He promised that the village chief would take over the family for the whole winter.

But in the current state of the territory, the lord can't guarantee the money at all, which constitutes a fraud, and the well-know execution officer immediately saw that the lord was deceiving and executed him.

"This kind of guy who thinks he is very smart is often unable to notice the omissions in logic, and he dies the fastest in the shadow world."

Accompanied by crossing out the names of those who were eliminated, Deputy Dean Ron sighed,

"This is the lack of wisdom."

The correct way of thinking is that as long as you can notice the most basic clue "the abnormality in the little girl", and collect some key information from other villagers, complete the decryption to reveal the truth and subdue the criminal, the problem will be solved.

"Shadow World pays attention to the use of both wisdom and talent, and sometimes noble conduct, so as to gain the favor of the characters in it and unlock the clues."

While they were discussing.

Another teacher saw a candidate who directly used wind magic to cut down trees, and then used magic to quickly dry the firewood.

What's more, they tried to make fire attribute magic props that could be used to replace the magic furnace.

It can be said that each shows his talents.

however.

These seemingly eye-catching operations have not been favored by many teachers.

"Sometimes Shadow World can indeed take a shortcut through its own characteristics, but sometimes it will fall into a trap..."

"This original version of the first-order Shadow World, I remember it is very disgusting, because at the end of the investigation, it will be found that this evil couple deliberately hid the magic furnace, in order to be able to freeze the little girl to death in this blizzard, so as to deceive the North High funeral allowances in border laws."

"Even if you give them dry wood or a magic stove, the little girl can't be saved, because it's actually those twisted hearts that are cold."

"Sometimes you are too arrogant to try to skip the mechanism of the shadow world, but it may lead to unexpected failures. This is because your mind is not calm enough."

With sighs, a group of teachers discussed the core of the entrance exam.

For most of the candidates who are second-level or third-level candidates, this first-level shadow world does not have any fighting elements that require the use of force.

It is just the most basic and simplest shadow world mode.

But it can also fundamentally examine whether candidates have the aptitude to challenge the film world.

"Hey, what's going on with this guy?!"

An exclamation suddenly attracted the attention of all the teachers.

The teachers on each table looked towards the corner of the split screen.

I saw that it was a candidate who belonged to the Academy of Knights.

In his lens, the painting style is completely different from other candidates.

He didn't wear a noble long coat, but only a pair of trousers left. His body was muscular, and he stood with his arms around him in the cold wind.

Even though his gray and white messy hair was covered with snowflakes, he still didn't seem to be afraid of the cold at all, and his dark purple pupils were as tough as a lone wolf.

"What is this thing doing?"

"Wait! In fact, as a nobleman, the candidate's clothes are worth some money. It is enough for the village head to take over the expenses of a family's entire winter, so that the little girl will be protected by the village head."

It is impossible for ordinary people to be so cruel to themselves, as if they have not considered their own life and death at all.

However, this shadow world does not require the challenger to live to the end.

Sacrificing oneself and implementing benevolence and righteousness is also an option.

"The reckless men in the Knight Academy are like this. Occasionally there will always be one or two brains that don't work well."

"But this candidate of the Knight Academy named Frey... you say he is stupid, but he thinks he is very smart..."

Although Frey completely violated the purpose of the exam, he did fulfill the requirements with his noble character and abnormal physical fitness.

"Maybe completely abandoning wisdom and xinxing is also a display of wisdom and xinxing?"

"You have to say that he does embody many virtues of a knight, including honesty, compassion, bravery, and sacrifice... It's just that it completely deviates from our original investigation goal. The Knight Academy has picked up a treasure this year."

Slowly, although it was difficult for the teachers to make a pertinent evaluation of Frey's customs clearance ideas, they finally couldn't help admiring him.

At least as a knight, he is well deserved.

"and many more."

The deputy dean Ron, who suddenly lowered his head and was looking through the candidates' materials, said in a deep voice,

"... I found out that this guy seems to be addicted to gambling. He often loses only a pair of pants, and he is used to mortgage all his clothes... So he may have formed muscle memory. Once he arrives in this shadow world, If you are unresolved, take the clothes and discount them first to solve the problem."

"..."

"..."

After blowing for a long time, everyone felt embarrassed, and the conference room suddenly became extremely quiet.

After a while.

Deputy Dean Ron finally broke the oppressive silence, coughed lightly, and tried to guide the meeting back on track.

"On the bright side, this guy is a candidate for the Knight Academy, and the Knight Academy should be the one who should be troubled."

"really."

"The students on our side are obviously much more normal."

The teachers nodded one after another and couldn't help but feel grateful.

It didn't take long.

Gradually another teacher found out.

Candidates from the Academy of Sages here.

There also seemed to be a guy who wasn't quite right.

In the picture, I saw a boy with black hair and green eyes.

Not only did he not rush to investigate.

Instead, he rushed back to the village chief's house immediately.

With the consent of the village head, he started to find a few books on the bookshelf.

Then he leaned leisurely on the sofa, reading a book by the fire.

He even took a sip of hot tea from time to time, with a particularly comfortable expression.

Obviously, his strange behavior attracted the attention of the teachers.

"What is this guy doing? Is he enjoying himself?"

The teachers who paid attention to Lan Qi began to ask each other.

Soon, a young teacher sneered slightly, then shook his head and said:
"Generally, students who abandon the exam halfway will do this, staying in a safe position, but I have never seen someone who abandons the exam as decisively as him."

Other teachers heard the words.

They nodded.

I was almost deceived by this guy's relaxed and calm demeanor.

"Lanch Wilford... The result of this guy's attribute test is not satisfactory. His family is a well-known wealthy businessman on the border of Nanwantina, the eldest son of the Wilford family, is he here to experience life?"

The vice-principal found Lan Qi's admission information and sighed helplessly.

After the teachers learned of his situation, they also began to lose interest in this loose-minded Fu Shao.

……

Just when the attention of the professors gradually left Lan Qi.

He finally closed the book in his hand.

And with this book, he took the executioner and resolutely went to the stolen family again.

dong dong.

Lan Qi knocked lightly on the door.

Then there was a faint sound of footsteps coming from inside the door accompanied by howling wind and snow.

As soon as the door was opened, he saw a middle-aged man who came to greet him and was shivering from the cold.

"My lord, has your investigation progressed?"

The middle-aged man asked with a look of worry that implied expectation.

But in fact, he secretly laughed in his heart.

The direction of the investigation of this idiot aristocrat was totally misguided.

From now on, all you need to do is to fool this poor lord away from home again, and let him continue to wander around in this icy world with his stupid heart of benevolence and righteousness.

however.

Lan Qi just stared at the middle-aged man sharply, as if he was finally convinced of one thing.

"The investigation has not progressed. But when you saw me before, and just now, didn't you bow to me?"

Lan Qi slowly raised his hand, pointing to the middle-aged man at home and asked.

"Sorry, my lord, I heard that you have always been very kind. You don't care about these details. It's our negligence..."

The sudden question made the middle-aged man panic, he quickly pressed the little girl's head with his wife, bowed to Lan Qi and said in a low voice.

He didn't know what went wrong, which caused the nobleman to suddenly change his face.

Obviously this good old lord did not conduct any investigations in his own home, how could he notice the slightest clue! ?
Lan Qi sneered:
"According to the etiquette of the Northern Border Territories, you husband and wife should bow to me, but you failed to show me the due respect twice. I think your attitude towards me is extremely contemptuous, which makes me insulted."

He flipped open the code in his hand and reprimanded sharply,
"According to the crime of insulting nobles on page 719, line 3 of the Holy Nation Code, I will arrest your whole family. Children under the age of 12 can be exempted from this crime. According to the custody and attribution regulations on page 134, this girl loses her guardian and will be arrested. I brought it back to the town to be taken care of by the church, which is in compliance with the regulations."

After finishing speaking, Lan Qi turned his head to look at the executioner, and raised the book that had been opened in his hand, and showed the executioner the page of the "crime of insulting the nobility" of the code.

It's clearly written on it.

As for the etiquette on the northern border, Lan Qi had just asked the village chief and the executioner in detail to confirm.

The executioner was slightly taken aback.

After hesitating for a while, he finally stepped forward to control the three people who were bewildered.

"You will be temporarily detained at the village chief's house. When the blizzard passes, you will return to the town with me. Those who should go to jail will go to jail, and those who should go to church will go to church."

Lan Qi stared at the code and said word by word.

Next.

He watched the three of them embark on the road to the village head's house under the leadership of the executive officer.

in the snow.

Lan Qi put his hands in his pockets, breathed a sigh of relief, and showed a relieved smile.

"Obviously, this test tests the students' legal awareness, so that their family can spend a warm winter in prison and church."

……

off the field.

"?!"

The corners of the professors who inadvertently witnessed Lan Qi's operation began to twitch wildly.

Even the chief examiner Loren, who saw all this in the examination room, widened his eyes.
