Chapter 52: A Quiet Afternoon

To the west of the main tower of the Praetorian Guard camp is an empty schoolyard.

Unlike other playgrounds on the drinking water slope, this school field is the top of the drinking water slope, and it is a vacant land that was cut out by Ogu at the top of the slope with one breath.

Ogu covered a large iron pot with a radius of tens of meters on the school field, on the one hand, in order to practice magic alone for Charles, who has amazing destructive power, as long as Charles does not exhaust his mental power, he can play as he pleases inside.

On the other hand, it is to prohibit ordinary soldiers from observing Charles's martial arts cultivation, after all, in the eyes of Ogu, most of the moves in "Dragon Fist" are harmful and useless for ordinary soldiers to learn without crystallization to strengthen the whole body, let alone ordinary soldiers without crystallization.

The school was nicknamed the Dome by Charles.

After Charles's destruction, this large iron pot with an average thickness of 1.5 meters will grow a few sharp corners in different places every day, and for most of the month, it has nothing to do with the giant egg, but is more like half a durian lying on the ground.

At the beginning, the rumbling sound in the giant dome resounded through the drinking slope every day at dawn, and the entire magic guard was made a little nervous, and the soldiers went back and forth, and if they looked closely, they could always see different degrees of bloodshot in each other's eyes.

Later, the soldiers outside the school yard were able to patrol back and forth as usual, ignoring the "boom" sound coming from the school yard, and did not even wrinkle their eyebrows.

Only those soldiers who had just returned to the camp were still a little startled, and from time to time they would come to watch during the rest of the grazing period, but not only could they not see anything, but they were also driven away by the soldiers on duty with a disdainful gaze that said "I don't know", and they were really depressed.

After a long morning of noisy daily activity, there is always a very quiet afternoon in the barracks.

The soldiers on duty all knew that Lord Eagle's magic cultivation was over, and he was practicing martial arts.

But today's cultivation seems to have taken a little longer, and seeing that the sun is about to set, Lord Eagle did not come out of the giant egg hungry as in the past.

One of the soldiers on duty looked at the fading sky, turned back to another soldier who was older, and asked:

"Brother Jim, you know the Eagle well, why don't you think he hasn't come out yet?

Soldier Jim has been on duty at the Dome for more than a month, and he can be regarded as the person who has spent the longest time with Charles every day except for Ogu.

Hearing this, he looked uneasily at the entrance of the dome, and couldn't help but be a little worried:

"I don't know, although Master Griffin doesn't necessarily come out every day, but the latest time is an hour before sunset. ”

"Why don't you stay here and I'll go in and have a look?" asked the young soldier, hesitating.

Jim hesitated.

Disturbing the young eagle's cultivation, not to mention that military law does not allow it, I am afraid that the whole battalion of soldiers will make a note of him in their hearts.

But if something really happens, how to deal with these two little soldiers on duty is not as important as a feather of the young eagle!

Thinking of Young Master Griffin's usual comings and goings, he greets himself without any shelf, and even the unique word "young master"...

"Don't call me an adult, I don't have an official rank, if you don't think it's troublesome, call me... Well, the young master will do it~"

Charles's original intention was to let Jim call himself the same as Cecilia and the others, as if he were an acquaintance.

But Jim is not young, and in a few years he will be able to retire from the army, and he has begun to pay attention to the way out of the military after leaving the army.

At that time, his first reaction was to confirm it to Charles:

"My lord, can I really call you young master?"

"Oh... Yes~"

Jim, of course, could see that Charles didn't really have the heart to accept him as a retainer, after all, although he was born with greater strength than ordinary people, he was not the chosen one.

Wanting to follow Charles, who is a young eagle, is almost a dream.

Although Charles had no heart or lungs, he also tasted something from Jim's confirmation, and that lonely look made him understand that the class gap in this world was far greater than he imagined.

A polite sentence from the superior, or a joke, is likely to determine the fate of the lower person's life.

The word "young master" cannot be easily allowed in the future.

So, since then, Jim has been the only soldier in the battalion who can call Charles "Young Master".

Thinking of this, a hint of determination flashed on Jim's angular face, and he reached out and pressed the soldier beside him:

"I'll go in and take a look, you wait for my news. ”

With that, Jim turned and ran towards the inside of the Dome, leaving only the young soldier with a complicated look on the spot, trying to say something, but gritted his teeth and held back.

Although the Dome is an improvisation by Ogu, it also takes into account the problem of sound divergence, and reserves dense small holes at the top.

Not only does it take into account the issue of ventilation, but it also allows Charles to judge the time based on the direction of the sunlight coming in.

With the afterglow of the setting sun shining in from the west, Jim made a beeline for the martial arts area in the deepest part of the Dome.

This is where Charles practiced martial arts.

Since Jim retired from the front line half a year ago, he has been taken care of by Liana, the commander of the first regiment, and has been arranged to take care of this school field, and even the first regiment has not been able to go with him on this expedition.

Inside the Dome, he could find his way with his eyes closed.

When he stepped into the martial arts area, he saw Charles lying on his back to the ground, his face pale, and he looked unconscious.

"Master Griffin!"

Jim was shocked, and a heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he rushed over desperately and hugged the unconscious Charles.

"Master Griffin, what's wrong with you? Master Griffin!"

But where could Charles answer him, he still looked dying, and Jim's hands and feet were cold.

Jim shuddered and reached out to probe Charles's snort:

"It's okay, it's okay, it's still gas..."

Only then did he quietly breathe a sigh of relief, took out the whistle from his arms, and blew it vigorously.

"Beep! beep!"

As soon as the whistle sounded, the young soldiers outside the door also panicked, knowing that something was wrong, they hurriedly took out the whistle and blew it later.

"Beep! beep!"

The rapid sound of the whistle sounded through the camp, immediately alarming the nearest regiment of soldiers.

"It's... Alarm whistle!"

"It's a slope top school!"

"There... It's a place for Lord Eagle to cultivate!"

...

As soon as the regiment heard this short emergency whistle, whether it was studying the art of war in the tower or practicing magic skills on the school ground, they all immediately put down their affairs and galloped towards the school field of the giant dome.

The Praetorian Guard camp has not sounded an emergency warning post for too long, but the officers and soldiers who have been out to fight all year round know the difference between an ordinary warning post and an emergency warning post.

Within a while, the Dome school was surrounded by a group of soldiers who reacted quickly.

"You blew the whistle?"

"What happened? Was the Eagle attacked?"

"What does it take to blow the whistle?"

...

Looking at the murderous faces, the young soldier on duty subconsciously swallowed his saliva:

"I... I don't know..."

When the soldiers heard this, they were furious.

The commanders of all regiments in the Praetorian Guard were strict in managing the army, especially one regiment, and it was said that this support, even the siege of the entrance to the school field, came by stepping on the phalanx.

"Bastard, what do you mean I don't know!?"

"Do you know what the crime is without a whistle?"

"Tell me, why are you whistling?"

...

Facing the questioning of the leaders of the platoon, the young soldier on duty was not knowing where to answer, when he heard a mellow and powerful mezzo-soprano falling from mid-air:

"A regiment of soldiers obey the order! Retreat ten steps back and stand by in place!"
