Chapter 3: The Strange Army
"Volunteers?"
Xia Di repeated in confusion. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The young entourage, who had rough short hair and was in his early twenties, smiled kindly and said, "Yes, we are the Volunteer Army, the Volunteer Revolutionary Army!" In order to resist the tyrannical rule of the British Imperial Kingdom, the righteous men gathered under the call of Lord Sakas of Waverley! Little brother, I think you must be an adventurer, someone with rich combat experience, just the talent we need. ”
Xia Di was stunned for a moment, trying to remember the origin of the rebel army, but he had no impression.
"The Legend of Meenion" is a fantasy online game based on ancient European mythology, such as the place where he is now, called the country of Britain, which is the starting point of the European myth [Arthurian legend].
The Royal Kingdom of Britain is both the birthplace of the player and the most important stage in the entire playbook.
This troubled country has only been freed from colonial rule for nearly a hundred years. After Pandoragon succeeded his father Uther to the throne, the country was invaded by Rome and revolted by the nobles who were dissatisfied with his rule.
As an adventurer or savior from afar, the player has the duty to help King Arthur put down the rebellion and fight against foreign enemies. This is a large story-sharing mission. The complexity and difficulty of the strategy are staggering, but the mission was completed last month.
Under the attack of the three guilds formed by the player and the orthodox army of King Arthur, the rebels were completely wiped out, and the foreign enemy was intercepted off the island. Xia Di also participated in this war at that time and won a lot of battles, so when he heard the NPC in front of him say that he was a revolutionary army, he had an ominous premonition......
Operators don't have to be so pitiful. At the beginning, this mission made players burst their livers en masse, but now it hasn't been long before it's happening again?
Xia Di touched his chin and thought about it, but the other party was obviously an idle person, he didn't wait for Xia Di to respond, and continued: "Brother, I won't tell you, the imperial kingdom has reached the most critical moment, the empire of the Eastern Continent is eyeing us, and what about the country, those selfish nobles have exploited the people to the point of lawlessness in order to compete for the throne, if it weren't for the death of the first king and leaving no heirs, where would we have gotten to this point?" Thankfully, our leader, Lord Sakas of Waverley, a blood relative of the former king, with a noble lineage and great ambitions, has appeared, and they have led us against the great nobles who have done so much evil. We've already conquered two castles so far, but unfortunately there are still a little shortage of members, don't you think you should contribute to the future of the country? ”
The man talked endlessly, but Xia Di was confused.
He was silent for a moment and then interjected.
"Wait a minute, who do you say died?"
"O king."
“…… Ha? ”
Xia Di was slightly stunned, and his back couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, his heart was like being thundered by the sky at the moment.
It wasn't that he was surprised by the death of King Arthur, the king of a country, but that he was surprised that he spoke so lightly, as if he were telling something that had been known a long time ago.
Because, a few hours earlier, he had witnessed the death of King Arthur at the court.
Rather, the murderer is his team.
It stands to reason that only those present know about this matter, but it has only been a long time before it has become known to the world...... Could it be that which **** present shook this matter out?
In other words, those nobles are also moving too fast, have they been waiting for the moment when I act?
Xia Di had a wonderful premonition in his heart, and he felt that his conjecture was a little biased.
However, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't immediately come to a conclusion, so he had to make up his mind.
"Oh, what a great ambition." Xia Di looked at the man in front of him again, and said with a smirk: "Okay, I just have the intention of joining such an organization, please count me as one." ”
It's obviously a plot mission in front of you.,Hide a lot of information.,For the safety of the future.,There's no reason for me to let it go.,Plus there are so many bugs at the moment.,Even if you go back later.,You should be able to get the understanding of your companions.。
Xia Di thought silently.
"Well, well, young people just have to be bold. Then you come with me. ”
The attendant nodded in satisfaction, and then took Xia Di to report to the bearded man.
Xia Di pretended to say a few polite words, and was welcomed by the bearded man.
"I'm Victor, the leader of the Volunteer Scout Team, and I'm welcome to you. Our mission is to scout the surrounding terrain and bring information back to the territory, if you don't understand something, just ask Chiri. ”
Vicford gestured to his entourage.
"Little brother, work hard." The retinue named Qiri shook hands with Xia Di.
"Okay, please advise."
Chiri then explained the army's remuneration to Xia Di and was given a set of chain mail and a short sword.
Xia Di changed into his equipment and followed them on a journey.
……
……
The sound of horses' hooves sounded crisply and rhythmically.
A team of forty men walked mightily through the woods.
The morale of this team is not high, and the discipline is not good. Rather, this is the most scattered army Xia Di has ever seen.
The man on the horse was fine, and although he looked a little restless, he at least looked around carefully and performed his duty of reconnaissance.
The walking infantry was different, scattered and without formation, and some were even chatting with their companions.
As the captain, Victor seemed to have become accustomed to this scene, sometimes scanning them with a cold gaze, but did not say anything to stop it.
"Hey, hey, where are you from, what's your name?"
Beside Xia Di, a blue-haired young man accosted him.
The young man took a spear in his hand as a crutch and walked forward in three steps and two steps.
"I'm from the mainland." Xia Di smiled and said, "My surname is Xia, and my name is Di." ”
Xia Di honestly said his real name.
His game name is known to many people, so it's safer to use his real name.
"It's a strange name."
"People often say that."
Xia Di smiled helplessly.
In fact, Xia Di didn't like his name very much.
"My name is Luo Di, and my hometown is in Rusuo Village." The blue-haired youth smiled innocently.
"Oh, it's in that Saka...... Is the territory of anything nearby? ”
"You mean Lord Saccas, it's a pity that my hometown isn't in Waverley, it's a little bit higher."
"Waverley......" Xia Di thought for a moment, "Gulford? ”
"Yes, yes. Have you been? ”
"Well, I've been there before."
Xia Di used his past knowledge in this way, and chatted with the young man without saying a word.
Small talk is a good way to get first-hand information, and through such conversations, Xia Di learned some things about this team.
For example, Captain Vicfort, who was once a member of the Legion Army's lower knights, Vice-Captain Kiri used to be an adventurer, and the others, like Roddy, were former peasants recruited from various villages by the Revolutionary Army.
"By the way, you're an adventurer like Vice-Captain Kiri, right? What level of strength do you have? Roddy asked, "Well, there is also a first order." ”
“…… Stairs? ”
Xia Di looked at him puzzled.
In a trance, I suddenly remembered that the girl I met in the dungeon also seemed to have said this word.
"By the way, except for Captain Vikford and Captain Kiri who are both second-order, everyone else is first-order. After all, we are all elites in the village, and we usually chop wood and fetch water, and our health is much better than that of city people......"
Salsa.
Before Roddy could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by an eerie voice.
The horse suddenly neighed.
Get the attention of everyone present.
Vicford frowned, grabbed the reins, and let the horse stop where it was.
"Something is wrong!" Vicford said loudly.
The surroundings were instantly enveloped in an ominous air.
Vice Captain Kiri quickly glanced around and shouted, "Enemy attack!" Get ready for battle! ”
Then, he drew the sword from his waist.
As soon as he finished speaking, figures appeared around the forest.
Men dressed in plain cloth and holding forks or sticks jumped out of the shadows.
Bandits?
No...... This is?
"You guys! This is the territory of our village, no entry! At the head was a tall, thin, weak-looking man, who shouted with a pitchfork in his hand.
