Chapter 52: Main Quest Completed!
There are also guards on the city wall, and they all see the affairs of the city gate, and the so-called common hatred and hatred of the enemy naturally also want to see Xu Dong deflated. But he didn't think about it, Xu Dong was like a big bird, and a few rabbits jumped to the female wall.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the surface of the chic and spiritual figure, which was both shocked, extremely surprised, and gradually renewed worship.
A sergeant who had stood behind the city wall and looked up and went out was frightened by Xu Dong's sudden jump and took a half step back, feeling a little angry, but now looking at Xu Dong, he somehow stretched out his hand and went out, "Come, take a hand." ā
Xu Dong could feel this kind of subconscious kindness, smiled slightly, and jumped off the high female wall with his hand.
"Thank you."
Xu Dong is like this, and when others extend a hand of kindness to him, he will also express his gratitude and thanks.
The sergeant turned out to be very flattered and looked extremely helpless. Compared with their attitude towards Xu Dong before the assessment, it is completely different. This made Xu Dong suddenly recall what Cheng Jianbang, the head of the guard army, had said before: "The strong are respected, and strength is supreme!" ā
This is no longer a universal truth, but a code of conduct that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people on this big 6. It is only under such a code of conduct that the sergeants' reactions are reasonable: for Xu Dong's previous attitude, they show disdain and expect failure; When he showed the strength of common sense, he immediately turned into awe and worship.
It's like giving up your seat on a bus. If there is a big man with thick shoulders and a round waist standing next to him, even if he has been standing for an hour and is tired like a dog, no one will give up his seat, but once an old man in his sixties and seventies comes up, even if this guy only takes one stop and gets off the train, someone will still give up his seat, and other passengers will only take it for granted when they see it.
Under the leadership of the sergeant of the city tower, Xu Dong went down the city wall, but what he didn't expect was that Cheng Jianbang was waiting there early. There was a person standing beside him, and that person was none other than the guard who had made things difficult for Xu Dong before and slandered him. Hearing footsteps, the two looked up and followed the sound.
Cheng Jianbang's expression didn't change much, but the guard guard's expression was like a ghost, and after just a quick glance, he lowered his head and didn't dare to look again.
"What do you call it?" Cheng Jianbang stepped forward and spoke first.
Xu Dong smiled slightly, "It's okay for adults to call me Adong." ā
Cheng Jianbang glanced at Xu Dong meaningfully, "Adults are not big, don't say it again in the future, make a friend, my name is Cheng Jianbang." ā
City-building? Xu Dong was a little surprised. After all, a surname is a noble thing. But it's not difficult to understand that anywhere, as long as there are people, there will be fights, there will be staggered forces, and there will be interests chasing. It is not uncommon for big families to send their own children to the army for the sake of profit.
seemed to be aware of Xu Dong's thoughts, and Cheng Jianbang didn't mean to explain, so he turned around and asked: "Adong, in fact, with your current age and level, you can have more ways out." The number of eliminations in the assessment of adventurers is very high, and under normal circumstances, one in a thousand. If you are willing to join the army, I can vouch for you. ā
Xu Dong finally understood why the army was also willing to support the assessment qualifications of the Adventurer Alliance, and it turned out that the root cause was here!
The elimination rate of the risk-taker qualification assessment is much higher than that of any other industry in the world, and sometimes it can even reach 100%. However, there are many good players who come from the fake name like a carp crossing the river, and they are eliminated in vain, which is too wasteful for the absorption of talents. As a result, the official intervened and planned to cut off the beard and recruit outstanding talents to his subordinates first.
Of course, this approach is understandable, and the Adventurer Alliance is also open-eyed and closed-eyed, acquiescing in their approach.
Seeing Xu Dong's silence, Cheng Jianbang began to keep throwing out bids, "Life after joining the army is, of course, not as free as an adventurer." However, there are far fewer dangers encountered than adventurers. As long as you have meritorious service, you will be able to obtain excellent flesh and blood equipment, cultivation methods to improve your own strength, and so on. After a pause, Cheng Jianbang finally said in a hurry, "My deputy position has been vacant for a long time......
Xu Dong still smiled faintly, pursed his lips and arched his hand, "Thank you, adult...... Thank you for your kindness, but I have a firm heart and a reason why I must obtain the status of an adventurer. I understand Brother Cheng's intentions, but I'm sorry. ā
Cheng Jianbang waved his hand generously, "It's okay, this kind of thing still has to be voluntary, and use strong methods to recruit an awakened person under his command, I can't sleep well, it's better not to." In that case...... I don't bother anymore. In this way, as for your qualification certificate, I will leave a mark on it to prove that you have completed the first level of assessment in advance, so you can go directly to the alliance office to deliver the qualification certificate. ā
Cheng Jianbang took the assessment qualification certificate handed by Xu Dong and snorted softly, only to see that the muscles in his arms were expanding rapidly, and it seemed that even the skin muscles were about to tear apart. A faint color of blood flashed by, and disappeared into the letter, like a mud cow entering the sea.
It turns out that the power of flesh and blood armor can still be used like this, isn't that very similar to the internal strength in the martial arts novels I've read before? Xu Dong really opened his eyes, but unfortunately, he couldn't mobilize the power of the flesh and blood armor in his body.
After completing this qiÄ, Cheng Jianbang handed back the qualification certificate to Xu Dong, "Before parting, I will give you a Jianyi yƬ and change it into a better equipment." You must know that there are always people who are accustomed to looking at people with low eyes, and it is not a bad thing to be low-key, and it is easy to be provoked if you are too low-key. Troublesome things, of course, can be less and less. ā
What else can Xu Dong say? I have what happened to me today, all because of this tattered clothes? It's really laughable.
After Xu Dong left, Cheng Jianbang glanced at the guards and asked lightly, "Do you know why I brought you to him, but in the end I didn't let you do anything?" ā
The doorman hung his head and shook his head, "Little one doesn't know." ā
Cheng Jianbang snorted coldly, "If he agrees to join the army, I will whip you half to death, so that he can have both face and lining." You should be glad that he chose to refuse, so nothing happened to you. ā
The guard was so frightened that he knelt directly on the ground, and said in a sincere panic: "Lord Xie, Lord Xie......"
Cheng Jianbang said expressionlessly: "In this world, the strong are respected and strength is supreme, without strength, you are not even as good as a dog." You remember, it was the guards who gave you courage, and I gave you dignity. Get out of this camp and you're nothing. Work hard in the future, make your moves brighter, and don't offend people indiscriminately. ā
The doorman kowtowed like a chicken pecking rice, "The little one won't dare in the future." ā
Swinging the guards away, a man wrapped in thick robes suddenly emerged from the shadows in the corner. When this man appeared, Cheng Jianbang immediately felt a burning sensation that seemed to be coming to his face, he tilted his head to stare at the comer, frowned and said, "You don't want to die, dare to come to me in broad daylight?" ā
I didn't expect these two people to know each other.
The robed man smiled, "It's not a bad thing to be careful, but it's too much to be vigilant for your sake." ā
Cheng Jianbang's expression sank, "Don't talk nonsense, you can just say anything." ā
Seeing that the other party was implicitly angry, the man in the robe was also a little jealous, so he didn't gossip anymore at the moment, and went straight to the point and said: "I got a piece of information, and the content of the intelligence may be of great interest to you: one of the battalions of the seventeenth frontier guard of the neighboring Mingyue Empire is about to move, and it is very likely that a sneak attack will be carried out in the near future." ā
Cheng Jianbang frowned, "Why don't you report this kind of thing to the city lord?" I'm more curious, where did you get this kind of news from? ā
The robed man was silent for a while, and finally reluctantly said, "I am an adventurer, and I accidentally obtained this news because of a mission. As for why he didn't report it directly to the city lord, but told you...... I once swore to Mondo that I would never forget my life, and that it was my gift. You can get a promotion through this meritorious service. ā
With that, he tossed a scroll to Cheng Jianbang, "This is a map of the enemy's march that I have obtained, believe it or not, it is up to you whether you take the risk or not." ā
After throwing the scroll out, the adventurer did not pause in the slightest and immediately turned away.
Spreading out the scroll, Cheng Jianbang immediately judged that this was a real marching route map. As to whether the contents of the scroll were true or false, the city instinctively felt that it was not false information, because the adventurer had no motive to frame him.
Is it a report, or is it a private action? It's a tough choice.
How can reporting credit compare to real enemy killing feats? With such a feat, it is likely that the city of Jianbang, which has not been touched for three years, will be given a precious promotion opportunity by virtue of this battle. This kind of opportunity, for him, is simply a rare opportunity in ten years!
Is it a report, or is it a private action?
Just as he was hesitating in his heart, he suddenly remembered something. Due to the upcoming annual Tribute Day, the Lord of the City will soon lead his elite army to the provincial capital of Birch. As soon as these elite armies came out, basically the second-order temperers and third-order wanderers in the Blood Helmet City followed. In other words, the safety of Bloody Helmet City naturally depended on their guards.
The empty Blood Helmet City brings a difficult challenge to the city, but it is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Because his heart was in a state of war between heaven and man, this led to Cheng Jianbang's face being gloomy and terrifying.
After entering the city, Xu Dong first rented a guest room for ten silver coins, and then found the finance office responsible for receiving the village's tribute and tax, and the moment he submitted fifty gold coins, a wonderful feeling came out from the inside out.
A piece of information suddenly appeared in my mind.
