Chapter 0311: On a Strange Town
Renard waved his hand to interrupt the other party's words, looked up and down a few times, if it weren't for the special accent of the other party's speech, he couldn't believe that the fat guy in front of him was Simon.
He couldn't help but quip, "Sir Simon, you're getting stronger and stronger." ”
The surrounding reservists all showed expressions that wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh when they heard this, and there were really few people in the county of Meredith who could make fun of Simon.
Simon's face was embarrassed, he touched his belly, and then smiled: "The food here is so good, I have become like this before I know it." ”
Immediately afterwards, he hurriedly added: "But I haven't given up training, and I'll tell you the truth, I just comprehended the fighting spirit a few days ago." ”
As he spoke, he was slightly lucky, and a fiery red light instantly burst out from the palm of his hand.
He showed a smug expression, and then quickly reined in, and said with a correct attitude: "This is thanks to the careful teachings of the instructors of the Abundance Academy, otherwise I would only be able to stay as a high-level martial artist in my life." ”
The Abundance Academy is an academy opened by the Earldom of Meredith itself, which includes martial arts, military, literature, physics, chemistry, science, agriculture and other aspects, which are divided into countless sub-categories.
Most of the tutors of the Faculty of Arts are former aristocratic squires, who are literate and hyphenated, and some are also proficient in history, calligraphy and painting, so they are the best candidates for tutors.
Most of the instructors of the martial arts and military academies came from the army, and they combined books with actual combat, and their lectures were also in a good way.
Physics, chemistry, and science should be taught by professionals, but fortunately, there are many talents in this area in the territory.
Many farmers who are good at farming are invited to give agricultural lectures, which flatters them.
The teaching quality of the college is not mentioned for the time being, but it really solves the problem of blind flow in the territory.
Children under the age of 16 in the territory are required to attend school for two hours a day, and other subjects are voluntary.
It is said that it is compulsory, in fact, every family is eager to send their children to study, they were unable to let their children study before, but now there are conditions, and it is free, who will give up such a good opportunity?
Get back to business.
Simon gave a flattering look and walked up to Renard and asked, "Your Excellency, are you here to check on the training of the recruits?"
Renard shook his head and said, "I'm here to find you." ”
Simon's eyes widened suddenly, and then he pretended to choke up and said, "You finally remembered me, do you have any important tasks to entrust to me?"
Renard ignored this, but said with a serious face: "I have investigated your resume and found that you served as a city guard under Duke Edmund before joining the army. ”
Simon didn't know what he wanted to do, so he nodded honestly and said, "That's right, I worked at Fort Duncan for a few days, and then I was kicked out because I was too idle." ”
"Eh!" It was the first time that such an upright man, Lei Ye, had met him, he groaned again, and then ordered: "Then you are ready to prepare, come with me to Fort Duncan, I want to meet Duke Edmund." ”
Simon nodded, "Now?"
Rhyard replied, "Naturally, the sooner the better." ”
Simon gestured to OK, then turned around and beckoned the two reservists: "I'm going out for two days, you two give me a good look at them, if you don't train well or something goes wrong, I'll ask you two." ”
The two soldiers nodded hurriedly, in a sign of extreme obedience.
Renard raised his eyelids, feeling that this guy was really good material for military training, and he trained these recruits honestly.
So he made a decision that this guy would stay in the boot camp for training in the future, at least for a few years.
If Simon knew what he thought, he would probably cry and red-eyed, but fortunately he didn't know, so he was still very attentive.
After lunch, Renard set off for Fort Duncan with Arka and Mark and their Secret Service team, with Simon as the guide.
Today's barren land is completely demonic territory, and the lords who have the strength to fight against demons can count on both hands, of course, the confrontation here is only to survive tenaciously under the poison of demons.
Therefore, in order to reach Fort Duncan, strong force is a must.
Fortunately, Fort Duncan is less than 200 kilometers away from the City of Plenty, and the roads are relatively clear, so if you speed up, you can reach it by noon tomorrow.
On the way to Fort Duncan, Renard gained a deeper understanding of the horrors of demons.
Villages have been looted and burned everywhere, and even many weakly defended towns have been poisoned by demons.
On the roadside or in the villages and towns, you can see gnawed white bones, and stains of dried blood dot the ground, revealing the atrocities that have taken place here.
On the way, they encountered dozens of waves of demons, almost every few kilometers they would encounter groups of low-level demons, and high-level demons also encountered dozens of them, all of which were caught up and then killed.
Renard was more and more frightened, and he now understood why the people of the county of Meredith were so grateful and even adored him.
Because it is he who provides them with living space and ensures that they are not killed and eaten by demons.
When Reynard saw a very small skeleton, his throat felt as if something had choked it.
He whipped the horse's ass hard and let the horse run wild, and in this way he wanted to vent all the pent-up anger in his heart.
Arka and Mark looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders helplessly.
Simon let out a long sigh and said to himself, "Although he is a very competent noble lord, he is also a young man with some feelings. ”
Immediately after, a smile appeared on his face: "But the world needs such people." ”
After saying that, he took the lead in chasing after him, and Alka, Mark, and more than forty members of the special service team also hurried after him.
Renard's bodyguard team is luxurious, even the prince of an ordinary small country can't match, this is the capital he dares to gallop in the barren land where demons are rampant.
In the evening, they arrived at a town thirty kilometers northwest of the City of Plenty.
The name of the town doesn't matter anymore, because it's completely deserted.
Judging from the size of the town, there used to be at least four or five thousand people living here, and it was a relatively prosperous town in the barrenland.
However, with the arrival of the demon, there is no longer half a figure in sight.
Thankfully, after everyone arrived here, they didn't see the corpses all over the field, which shows that the lord here is more wise, and decisively evacuated this place with the people when the demon disaster broke out.
However, Renard noticed that something was wrong, and he walked into a room with an open door and found that the contents were neatly arranged.
This means that the owner of the room is not in a hurry when he leaves, and what puzzles him is that many valuable things in the room have not been taken, which is very unreasonable.
Arka and Mark came to Renard's side and reminded in a low voice, "Young Master, something seems to be wrong here, let's be careful." ”
Renard looked at the two of them, since the other party also felt this way, it meant that it was not that he was nervous.
