Chapter 13: The Backbone of Noxus
This loud shout really shocked Beichuan's heart.
In the old days, he always saw all kinds of people depicted in movies and novels who looked at death as home!
At that time, Beichuan still scoffed at this, how could there be so many fools.
But when he really saw such an incident happening in front of his eyes, his heart couldn't help but be shaken violently!
Is this the will of Noxus?
Although the image of Noxus in the game's backstory has always been more villainous than Demacia's.
However, it is undeniable that the soldiers of Noxus are really good! The dead end has been so obvious, but they still have no hesitation!
Courage, force, blood, and the distinct class of Noxus were forged.
As for a coward like Darsel, he is destined to become a small captain at most by relying on the protection of his ancestors in this life.
These ordinary soldiers are really the backbone of the Noxian Empire.
"Let's go!"
Beichuan was still sighing here, and Merlin over there had already begun to lead the only dozens of soldiers to set off.
And the remaining slaves also stood in place in frustration to see who would have a good place to go.
"Little one, do you have any plans?" asked Old Bond very abruptly.
"Huh?"
Beichuan didn't react a little, groaned for a while, and then pointed to the backs of the soldiers and said, "Uncle Bond! I want to go with them! I want to be an imperial soldier!"
"Are you crazy? You want to go with them? It's not going to be easy to survive! Don't you want to go home?"
Old Bond obviously didn't expect Beichuan to say such a thing, and said to Beichuan with a teasing face.
Looking at Old Bond's wrinkled old face, Beichuan scratched his head and said seriously
"Uncle Bond, do you think that even if I lived to go to a big city like this, someone would be willing to deal with me? In other words, how would people react when they saw a slave asking them a question that they didn't understand? Not to mention, the slave was still a deserter!"
Beichuan said, self-deprecatingly patting the huge shabby armor on his body.
He didn't dare to take this thing off, he didn't have any other clothes to wear, and if he took it off, it would be no different from running naked.
Hearing Beichuan's explanation, Old Bond nodded, looked at the back of the soldiers who were gradually moving away, and said
"Okay then, little guy, since you want to go, let's go and fight for a future together! Anyway, I'm also helpless at my age, and I'll die if I die, in case I live! Maybe the old man and I can be a captain in my life!"
"Uncle Bond!"
Kitagawa looked at Old Bond with a touched face, he didn't expect Old Bond to fight with him.
As Merlin said earlier, old Bond is not a slave, and even if he is gone now, no one will say anything.
But now he has to go to the battlefield with himself!
Of course he knew that Old Bond was doing this for him!
At this moment, Old Bond's position in Beichuan's mind has risen to the level of his grandfather!
Beichuan secretly swore in his heart! As long as he can live, he must repay the old man's kindness!
Old Bond and Beichuan nodded in tacit agreement with each other, and walked in the direction of Merlin and them.
"Hey, you two..."
When the slaves saw that the two of them were actually going to chase Merlin, they didn't understand it very well, and some of them wanted to persuade them.
But then he dispelled this idea, and quietly survived, how could there be so much leisure to meddle in things.
Soon, the remaining slaves dispersed, but there were still seven left.
You look at me, I look at you, I want to see something in each other's eyes.
"We... Go for it too... I don't have anything to worry about..."Someone finally spoke.
"Well, good. Others chimed in.
Soon, these seven people quickly caught up with Beichuan and the two of them, and followed behind them very tacitly, without saying a word.
Old Bond and Kitagawa naturally knew what they meant to follow, smiled at them, didn't say anything more, and continued on their way.
Merlin and their marching speed was so fast that they could not be seen at all, and the old Bond, a group of old, weak, sick and disabled, could only rely on the footprints on the ground to move forward step by step.
Beichuan also remembered that it didn't take much time for the soldiers to go to investigate the situation before, so Merlin and the others should not be very far away from him now.
Indeed, after continuing to march for about fifteen minutes, Beichuan saw that Merlin and them were under the tree in front of them, and hurriedly pointed in the direction of everyone.
"You guys.... What's the situation? Why didn't you leave?"
When Merlin looked at the group of nine people standing in front of him panting, he was stunned, frowned, and continued, "Are you here to die?"
"My lord, we will do whatever you are doing!" Beichuan replied cleverly.
Mo Lin, who was choked with this sentence, didn't know what to say, the corners of his mouth rose, touched Beichuan's head and said with a smile
"I let you go without permission, this is already a violation of the laws of the Empire, I came this time with the determination to die, what about you?
Old Bond sighed and said to Merlin
"Who dares to say that they will be able to survive in this chaotic situation? If you let them go, they may die at the hands of wild beasts or enemy soldiers, and you pat your conscience and say, the group of people who escaped must have a better chance of survival than us? In such a big battlefield, not everyone has a mount like that guy from Darsle! Not to mention that guy is a nobleman! Even if he is caught! The other side should not be too embarrassed about him! The greater chance should be that their family will redeem him. ”
At the mention of Darsil, Merlin's face, which was originally still moved, instantly became gloomy, and he clenched his fists and said angrily
"This guy has no eggs! I will definitely tell Lord Rada what this guy has done when I have the chance! This coward has disgraced our empire! He should be sent to the gallows!"
"Okay, okay, let's talk about it before you live to see the adult you said! What's the situation now, aren't you going to the rescue, why did you stop here?"
Old Bond interrupted Merlin's anger and asked very strangely.
Hearing Old Bond ask him, Merlin put away his temper, and helplessly pointed in the direction outside the woods and said, "You can see for yourself." ”
Merlin's words aroused Beichuan's curiosity, and he didn't care about the fatigue of the journey, so Old Bond ran to the side of the soldiers in a hurry, and looked out along the soldiers' pointers.
"I.... it!"
