Chapter 256: The Problem of Conscription

Every time a magic array was activated, a gust of wind would roll up on the flat ground, and when the large magic crystal on the tenth levitation magic array bloomed with dazzling white light, the drooping end of the giant stone finally made a "creaking" sound, and the end of it embedded in the mountain rock began to slowly pull out and lift.

"The energy of the magic array won't last long, and we need to send someone in to find them. ”

Alan stared intently at the giant stone and said, he was worried that the mercenaries were not waiting behind the boulder, so they could only go in and find it, and then fill the magic array with energy, and activate it again, it would be very troublesome.

"No, they're right behind the boulder. ”

Elvis' ears were very sensitive, and he heard a voice coming from inside as the boulder moved against the friction. In fact, just as he expected, the boulder had just been lifted, revealing a gap wide of one person, and ten people with yellow muscles and thin faces had already crawled out of it.

As soon as the ten people came out, they didn't care that they were soaked with the pool water, so they hugged each other excitedly and cried and laughed.

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang, the energy of the floating magic array was exhausted, and the boulder fell back to seal the cave entrance tightly.

"Who are you? Did you save us?"

The sound of the boulder falling attracted the attention of the ten mercenaries, and only then did they notice the magic array emitting white light under the boulder, and the ten people who were ecstatic because of the escape from death were actually confused, and they didn't know what was going on until they saw Alan and the others standing by the pool, and they asked in shock and with some hesitation.

"It is no exaggeration to say that only we can save you in the entire continent, which is not only related to attitude and intention, but also the guarantee of strength. You may not know that in order to get you out in time, we have worked day and night, and we have hardly slept well. ”

Elvis straightened his chest and explained to himself without modesty.

The mercenaries who knew what was going by knelt down to thank Alan under the leadership of the team leader, and at first they didn't know Allen's identity, until the little girl proudly told them.

"Thank you, Chief Archmage, for saving ten of our brothers. ”

The mercenaries became even more grateful, because since the day they were born, no one other than their family and comrades had ever cared so much about it, not to mention that Allen's identity was still a person in power that they looked up to.

"Hurry up. ”

Alan hurriedly helped them up, and asked the two elves to hand the food that had already been prepared to the ten people.

After the ten people had eaten enough and rested for a while, Alan asked some about the stone chamber on the top of the Dragon God Mountain, and as he expected, the stone chamber returned to its original state, and no one could find out that there were major secrets hidden in it, in fact, even if the mercenaries found out, it was useless, and going to the top of the mountain was also a dead end, so Alan and a few people who knew the truth did not reveal the secrets of the stone chamber.

Due to the instinctive fear of the environment in the belly of the mountain, as soon as the mercenaries regained their strength, everyone immediately evacuated Longshen Mountain and embarked on the way home.

Considering the danger along the way, Alan has been accompanying the ten mercenaries, and it took a month from the Kulen Mountains to the Capra River to finally reach safety, Alan and the five of them said goodbye to the mercenaries with peace of mind, returned to the ancient city of Aogu first, and returned to Steven's courtyard that night.

Seeing Alan come back safely, Steven was naturally happy. The next morning, Bloom, who got the news, immediately went to the door to report to Alan about the preparations for the mercenary group.

Alan had already heard Harvey and Stanny talk a little before Bloom arrived, but he had the patience to listen to Bloom retell all the work he had done since he left, focusing on recruiting and building the barracks.

The scope of this conscription includes seventeen towns under the jurisdiction of the ancient city of Aogu, which lasted two months, and a total of more than 5,500 people were recruited, although it is still a little short of the number of a legion, but it has begun to take shape, and at present, these recruits are all in place, and they are being trained in the barracks, and the instructors responsible for training them are all veterans from the Tiger Mercenary Regiment and the Brave Heart Mercenary Regiment, although they are older, but they are experienced, and it is not good to lead troops to fight, but there is no problem in training a new recruit.

"The whole process was smooth. However, there were some problems with the recruitment. ”

At the end of the report, Bloom wanted to say something and stopped.

"What's the problem? Is it serious?"

Alan asked.

"Seriously, just go to the barracks and take a look. ”

Bloom's expression was frustrated.

"Okay, let's go now. ”

Without saying a word, Alan immediately set off, accompanied by Bloom, to inspect his mercenary group for the first time. When he left, it was a mercenary camp in the wasteland, and now he could see a fence in the distance, and inside the fence were rows of barracks. Next to the wooden gate is a large flag fluttering in the wind, embroidered on a black background with a lifelike golden dragon head, the dragon head seems to be roaring with its big mouth open, which is just the right name for the dragon bard mercenary group.

"Who drew the regimental flag?"

The pattern of the regimental flag was designed before Alan left, but there was no specific pattern at the time.

"Stanny drew it according to the shape of Demonondia, and then Isha embroidered it in the same way, how is it still satisfied?"

Bloom said with a smile.

"Haha. Alan laughed, "If you don't say I'll forget, we still have a dragon friend who hasn't shown up." ”

"Remember, this man is Alan Kanter, the leader of our Dragonbard mercenary regiment and the chief archmage of the ancient city of Okusan. ”

As he spoke, several people had already ridden to the gate of the barracks, and the guards at the gate were also recruits, they didn't know Allen, but they knew the deputy head of the regiment, Bloom, so they opened the gate from a distance, and when they passed the gate, Bloom proudly introduced Allen's identity to several guards.

As soon as I entered the camp, there was a sound of training slogans not far away, and when I turned the barracks, I saw a large open field in front of me. Thousands of recruits are being trained in battalion units.

Seeing Allen appear, Havic, Shelly and others, who were in charge of training, hurriedly put down their work, ran over to give Allen a salute, and took Allen to visit the training subjects of the recruits.

The recruits, led by the veterans, were running circles along the camp, and although everyone was shouting slogans as best they could, the running line was not neat, and many of the emaciated recruits were left behind, dragging the line for a long time.

"What kind of subject is this training. Looking at the sparse formation of soldiers running up, Allen, who was completely a layman, asked curiously: "Physical training?"

"Yes. Alan, I said before I came that we had some problems with recruitment. Specifically, the recruits we selected this time are all people with poor foundation and weak physical fitness. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Those seedlings with strong bodies and good foundations have been picked up by other mercenary groups. ”
