Chapter 13: The Village of Gurudin

Looking beyond the tall treetops, you can see the rooftops in the distance, the tiles reflecting a blinding glow in the sunlight, and the village of Gurudin.

The current kingdom of Gurudin was established by the ancestors who used it as a base to fight lizards and orcs in the wilderness, and after hundreds of years of operation, the once small village has long since become the most magnificent city of Gurudin.

Follow the winding path, past several boulder-lined cliffs, past the gladiatorial arena in the sandy sand, and the north gate of the village of Guruuddin is in sight.

The tall and sturdy stone walls still bear the traces of war, and the air is still filled with the smell of war smoke, but fortunately the enemy has withdrawn, and the party that has fled from Banis has made it to the city gates.

During the war, the gates of the village of Guruuddin were closed, and it was impossible for the guards to open the gates without permission, and after waiting for about ten minutes, a team of guards wearing standard armor came over and questioned and investigated the team outside the city gate according to the procedure.

The composition of the team of survivors from Banis, peasants from the north, adventurers active in Gurudin, was not complicated, and the identities were quickly verified.

"I'm Captain Bezcu, welcome to the village of Gurudin! It's safe here! ”

The leading guard beckoned, and the heavy gate slowly rose under the drive of the winch, making a thunderous grinding sound.

As he walked through the city gates, Mukai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it has only been a few days since I came to this world, I have been struggling with life and death since I opened my eyes, and now I am finally safe.

It's only temporary, but at least tonight I'll be able to take a good shower, change into clean clothes, and get a good night's sleep.

The villagers were taken away by the guards, and they were to be resettled by the village of Gurudin.

Bezcu took Rekan and the militia to the town hall, and after completing the formalities, some of them would be transferred to the guard, and some would be incorporated into the militia of the village of Gurudin, after all, in extraordinary times, the guard and the militia also need to be expanded.

As for the adventurers and mercenaries, Bezcu left after a brief explanation of the precautions, those guys are not willing to obey the rules, but they are also very wise not to touch the bottom line of the guards.

No matter where they are, they can walk in the gray area like a fish in water.

Walking on the clean and tidy streets, the first image of Guruding Village is solemn and solemn, wide and straight streets, huge square squares, neat planning and layout, even the houses are basically in a rigorous symmetrical form, where tall and straight buildings are lined up one after another, and the whole village looks magnificent.

The stone slabs on the ground have been trampled smooth and shiny, the exquisite murals on the stone walls have been blurred after a long time, the carved wrought iron street lamps are obviously regularly maintained, and the rough cast iron material has been polished smooth and round by time and rags, all of which tell the long history of the village to travelers.

The huge central plaza is entirely paved with neatly cut granite, and the geometric patterns are created using the color difference of the stone itself, which takes immeasurable time and effort for the scale of the square.

To the east of the square, the imposing Yin Haisa Temple stands quietly on the high stone steps, looking down on everyone who passes.

After a long period of religious reform, in the continent of Elmoadin, in the human world, the temple of Yinhaisa became the only legitimate sect, and Yinhaisa accepted the faith of humans as the god of creation.

Looking at the devout worshippers at the entrance of the temple, and feeling the awe of the adventurers around him when they passed by the temple, Mu Kai suddenly realized that before the awakening of Celine, the goddess of death, the vast majority of people living on this continent did not know the true founding history, nor did they know the gods they believed in in their hearts, and they didn't really care about their lives or deaths.

The corners of Mu Kai's mouth rose slightly, revealing a hint of mockery.

The high gods are not as sacred as they are in the teachings, they also have the same seven emotions and six desires as human beings, but they have the power to create or destroy the world.

When I crossed the central square, I was greeted by a group of heavily armed soldiers, and in front of him was a middle-aged knight with a resolute face.

The knight's armor was of the same standard as the armor worn by Karibasper, with the emblem of the Knights of Gurudin on his chest, and an oak coat of arms on the left breastplate, which was the family coat of arms and indicated his noble status.

The noble knight greeted Kaizhe very politely, and then said, "I am Arontenfold, the commander of the battle for the village of Gurudin. I heard from Bezcu that you just came from Banis, can you tell us about the situation there? We haven't heard anything in two days! ”

After a temporary break at the Pamir Gathering Grounds, Kaizhe's condition was much better, and although his messy hair and robes still looked awkward, the mage was clearly the highest-ranking person in the group, and the oldest person, and Arontenfrud spoke to him directly as soon as he arrived, reflecting the simple and straightforward style of a soldier.

Kaizhe succinctly recounted what had happened in Barnes from beginning to end, and explained the situation at the Pamir collection site, and he spoke in a coherent manner, and it took him a few minutes to explain the matter.

Arontanfold listened attentively, and only after Kaizhe finished speaking did he let out a long sigh, lowered his head and said to himself: "The hard work of the Grinder family for generations, alas! It was burned down! ”

After being silent for a while, the knight raised his head, looked at the adventurers in front of him seriously, and said, "At present, the manpower in the village is a little tight, are you willing to accept the hir?" ”

The middle-aged mage hesitated for a moment, and finally set his eyes on Mu Kai.

Arontenfold looked a little surprised, the young man was dressed in a tattered reinforced leather armor that was almost rotting, and an equally tattered water shadow sword hung from his waist, at first glance, he was a novice in the industry, but he unexpectedly played a decisive role in this team.

Mu Kai looked at the noble knight in front of him as usual, and said slowly: "Your Excellency Verde, please forgive me, we don't know anything about the situation here, please allow us to think about it before replying to you." ”

The knight was also secretly observing as the boy spoke, and what was different was the boy's eyes, bright and deep, revealing a depth that was incompatible with his age, and a touch of melancholy.

In addition, the teenager's conversation and demeanor also seem to have a calm and unhurried bearing, which is very rare in young people.

Arontanveld nodded and said, "The situation here is not too bad, but it is not optimistic. The day before yesterday, the battle of Cocellus did not attack our village, and he withdrew with his troops in the evening of the same day, on the surface, the siege of the city was lifted, but the village of Gurudin has actually become an island, we lost a lot of soldiers in that battle, at present, there are nearly a thousand jackal soldiers stationed at the east gate, and the threat has not really been eliminated! ”
