Chapter 42: A Frontier Town

"Hello, ladies and gentlemen, I am the commander of Soros in this fortress. When Li Liehuo and his entourage came to this deserted town, a middle-aged man who looked very shrewd on the surface came out to greet Li Liehuo and the others.

The border town is a small town surrounded by walls about ten kilometers long, and in the center of the town, there is a castle-like rent reduction.

"Ling'er, this person's name is so strange, it's actually called Soros, I've been in Xianyang City for so many years, and I've never heard of someone surnamed Suo. Li Liehuo muttered to Murong Ling, now that he has arrived at his destination, Murong Ling naturally doesn't need to hide in the carriage, but he is still wearing a veil, which can block the sun and wind and sand, and can block those annoying eyes.

Of course, although Li Liehuo sometimes looked at Murong Ling with the same annoying gaze, Murong Ling did not find Li Liehuo's gaze annoying but felt very happy, not for anything else, just because this gaze came from Li Liehuo.

"Haha, Brother Agni, you are so ignorant, Suo is not his surname, Soros is his surname, but this surname is very rare in the Cangyan Empire, so he directly replaced his own name with his own surname. Murong Ling explained to Li Liehuo petitely.

"Hehe, young master, you have too little knowledge, even I know this. The manniu, who was two meters tall, was also muttering next to Li Liehuo at this moment, and even the little guy Wulu was echoed by Wulu.

When Li Liehuo was said by them, Li Liehuo couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and finally said a little tricky: "What's this, isn't it a foreigner, we've seen it in our last life!"

At this time, Li Liehuo realized that the hair color of Soros in front of him was different from the hair color of the people of the Cangyan Empire, in the Cangyan Empire, the hair color of most people was fiery red, but the hair color of Soros in front of him was purple-red.

"Hehe, Brother Agni, just blow it, how can you know about the things in your previous life. Ling'er chuckled again. In fact, this time it was Murong Ling's mistake, Li Liehuo had really seen foreigners in his last life, that is, when he was on earth, after all, the Li family where Li Liehuo was located at that time was inside the tourist resort of Mount Emei, and there were really many foreigners he saw every time he went out.

"Soros, right, you might as well tell us about the situation here. Li Hao asked at Soros.

Although Li Hao is already twenty-two years old, he used to be in infinite retreat, and like Li Liehuo, he participated in the family's trials for the first time.

Hearing Li Hao's question, Soros was also clear in his heart, the two young people in front of him took the lead in this year's family children, although he was a little surprised by Li Liehuo and Li Hao's youth, but Soros still smiled and said: "Two young masters, as you can see, the fortress we are in is a border town, and there are a total of 13,000 residents in this town, of which 4,000 are our garrison soldiers, and the remaining 9,000 residents are almost all family members of the garrison." Therefore, almost all of our town belongs to the category of garrisons, and there are almost no ordinary people. ”

"That's interesting. Li Liehuo nodded when he heard this, an army actually collectively set up their homes in one place to form a small city, but it was full of fun.

"Our entire border town is surrounded by two layers of walls, the first of which is ten meters high, and is used for ordinary battles and night resistance to demonic beasts. As for the second wall, you see, it is the fortress in the middle, sixty meters high, and our four thousand soldiers usually live in it, and their families live in the housing area between the two walls. Soros pointed to the tall castle-like building in the center of the border town.

Hearing Soros's introduction, all the children of the Li family were interested, the architectural style here is completely opposite to Xianyang City, in Xianyang City, the outer city wall is relatively high, and the inner city wall of the city lord's mansion is just a form.

"I wonder if Commander Soros can take us in for a tour?" asked Li Liehuo, curious about the twenty-story building.

"Of course, because you all came here for the trial, and during the trial, you are especially considered soldiers here, so I have arranged accommodation for you inside. As for this beautiful young lady, the lord of the castle has already ordered that a special Beppu be given to you in the town. Today I am preparing a reception dinner for everyone, where you can eat our unique specialties and see our unique dances, and I hope you will have a good time. Soros instructed his sergeants to transport all the supplies to the warehouse, and then led Li Liehuo and the others towards the direction of the fortress, while Murong Ling was led by several middle-aged women to see his new accommodation.

Li Liehuo asked Wulu to follow Murong Ling, so that in this town, Li Liehuo was not afraid that Ling'er would encounter danger, and by adding Wulu himself, he would be able to kill a master like the white-clothed Shura, if Ling'er and Wulu cooperated, it was estimated that even a more powerful silver-level master would not be a problem.

"This young master, this one is following you, but you are not allowed to bring servants in the family trial. Soros asked, looking at the brute bull beside Li Liehuo.

"Hehe, you can just call me Li Liehuo, as for him, he is my servant on the road. Li Liehuo said with a smile, then paused and continued to ask, "This shouldn't violate the rules of the family." ”

"Of course not, Young Master Li Liehuo, you are a real warrior, you servant, your strength is not simple. Soros said sincerely, Soros himself is also a bronze-level powerhouse, so he can naturally feel the power of the brute bull, not to mention anything else, just the super giant axe with a length and width of one meter on the back of the brute bull can scare ordinary people down.

Under the leadership of Soros, Li Liehuo and others approached the fortress, and as soon as they entered the fortress, everyone found that there was a hole in it, there were nine floors inside this fortress, the length and width were all 100 meters away, and the hall on the first floor was the highest, more than ten meters high! And on each of the other floors, there are four or five hundred rooms, and on the top floor of the fortress, that is, the ninth floor, there are all large machinery such as trebuchets and crossbow machines.

"It's just an iron wall, the room here can accommodate at least 20,000 troops, and if you squeeze it, it's not a problem to accommodate 20,000 people casually. And those weapons on the top floor can completely control the outside of the outer city wall from that height, so it is very difficult to even take the outer city wall, let alone capture the fortress. Li Liehuo sincerely admired, such a design is simply wonderful.

"Soros, tell us about our mission, since we have come to this border town, we are naturally under the control of you, the Supreme Commander. Li Hao looked at Soros with a smile and said.

"Don't dare, don't dare, Young Master Li Hao, you're too polite. Soros hurriedly said modestly, talking along the way, he already knew that the person in front of him was the genius who reached the bronze level at the age of twenty-two in the information, originally he thought that a genius like this must be arrogant and would not be convinced of himself, and his heart was also long relieved to see Li Hao talking so well.

"In fact, every time we have a family trial, we have formed a tacit understanding with each other's family, and the time is also secretly set by both sides, after a while, each of you will receive an identity card from me, and the children of the other party's family will also have an identity card, and in the future battle, both of you will snatch each other's identity cards. When the trial is over, the person who loses his identity card will fail the trial, and the person who grabs the more identity cards will have the better results in the trial!" Soros took out his own identity card and showed it to Li Liehuo and the others, which was an iron necklace with a special family seal and the words Soros Jetport.

"Can you kill people during the battle?" Li Liehuo asked a question that everyone was concerned about.

"Yes!" Soros replied in the affirmative.

Hearing Soros's answer, Li Liehuo and the others all changed their faces, and a thought came to their hearts, this is not a game, it will kill people!

Seeing everyone's reaction, Soros nodded and continued: "However, I advise you to try not to kill people, especially the children of the other family, because that will cause unnecessary casualties." ”

Hearing Soros's words, Li Hao and Li Liehuo both nodded, but as long as they grabbed the other party's identity card, why bother to get a human life, if a human life is really made at that time, the other party may not stop, then after this trial, it is really not cost-effective to leave a lot of people here.

"Alright, the tour is over, next, I'll let you take you to your own room, you get familiar with the environment first, and see you at the banquet tonight." Soros smiled at everyone friendly, and then ordered someone to lead Li Liehuo and the others to their respective rooms.
