Chapter 255

The reason why Marcus was able to become the commander of the fortress at such a young age, in addition to his excellent performance and extraordinary family background, was also related to the special location of this fortress, which was remote, infested with barbarians, and had no oil and water, anyway, everyone else avoided it, so when he took the initiative to apply, the appointment was extremely smooth, and in short, everyone was happy!

In the same way, Marcus was well prepared before he came, and was even ready to accept death at any time, but the road was safe and sound, which surprised him a little cautiously.

But when he saw the two people in front of him, his heart jumped to his throat!

Although Fu Xueqin and Xia Dong were just standing quietly in the distance, Marcus immediately stopped, his intuition told him that these two people were dangerous!

Of course, the other soldiers who stopped with him also had the same idea, just looking at Fu Xueqin's armor that was gorgeous enough to allow the emperor to exchange it for the province, at least they thought that if they were the emperor, they would definitely be willing to do such an exchange.

The shape is gorgeous, peculiar, the parts are numerous, and even the dazzling light is reflected in the sun, and the long sword in his hand, the intimidating eye at the hilt seems to attract the attention of others all the time, and more importantly, the owner of these things, the woman who looks like a foreigner, but beautifully looks like a dream.

The times are ancient, and they have not experienced the information explosion, and when facing this woman, they can only use two words to describe it after racking their brains: goddess!

As for the eccentric guy in a robe behind her, I'm sorry, no one pays attention to it for the time being, after all, the principle that the same sex repels and the opposite sex attracts each other has not changed from ancient times to the present!

And seeing the outfits of these soldiers, Xia Dong and the two were also surprised, the twenty people in front of them were divided into two columns, each of them was a huge square shield in his left hand, and a short sword in his right hand, at the front of the team, there was a guy with a beast skin on his head holding a big flag, just looking at the heads of these people, Xia Dong was speechless in his heart, looking at their poor costumes? I'm rubbing, this living condition shouldn't be too scary, okay?

Fu Xueqin breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she heard the name of Britain before, she guessed that it was a foreign story, the number of wars in ancient foreign countries was not large, and dozens or hundreds of people dared to call it an army, and in ancient China, tens of thousands of people were beaten at every turn.

Now that there were only about twenty soldiers in this group, she was suddenly relieved.

The two sides were separated by dozens of meters, looking at each other quietly, and finally, Marcus couldn't help but take the initiative to shout, since the other party was standing on the road they had to go to the fortress and waiting, it must not be passing by, "We are the fourth brigade of the Second Army of the Roman Empire, who are you?"

Fortunately, the heart of the world world gave Xia Dong the language of their world world, and when he heard the question, Fu Xueqin turned his head to look at his master, and found that he didn't mean to communicate, so the master opened his mouth to respond, "My master is the chief archmage of the empire, where is your legion leader?" ”

Marcuston on the other side was choked by this thunderous man's answer, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, and beside him, the soldier carrying the flag couldn't help but laugh a few times, and he muttered to himself, "Archmage? What are you kidding, how could that kind of character appear at the end of the world? What a liar with no common sense. ”

In fact, Marcus also thinks the same way, but his personality is much more cautious, after all, although the appearance of the two in front of him is not a Roman, but they are not barbarians, besides, look at that set of armor, you can know that it is not worth this set of things to put all the barbarians together, so they rush to this equipment, if they are placed in Rome, there are really many people who will believe them.

Thinking of this, he suddenly thought about it, no, it is said that the chief archmage is extremely magical, and the affairs of this kind of character may not be measured by common sense, what if the guy in the robe is really an archmage?

Not daring to slack off, he cleared his throat, "Your Excellency, I'm sorry, but we've never met Your Excellency the Archmage, can you provide any proof?" ”

Prove? Xia Dong scratched his head, since he said that he was the chief archmage, then he probably only needed to put a magic spell on his own, right? But what kind of magic should I use?

Rakruo's weak energy absorption? No, this magic has to have a goal, you can't kill someone to do a demonstration, right?

Dragon's breath mimicry? No, I sprayed three times in a row, and I didn't want my mouth to suffer, and the movement was too big.

Ruby reversal rays? Zomji's instantaneous summoning? Neither can these two.

Incarnate statue? Haven't you used it or forget it, Flame Clean? It's also troublesome, making yourself like a lantern, what about the arrow of bones? No, it doesn't.

It seems that there is only stealth.

After going through all his spells in his mind, Xia Dong stretched out his hand and pushed Fu Xueqin in front of him, and took two steps forward, "Then you have to look carefully." ”

Advanced stealth!

When the people on the other side heard this, they were inexplicable, but they found that his figure had disappeared in place, and only the voice continued to come, "Is this okay?" ”

Looking at this scene, Marcuston's eyes widened, but he couldn't see Xia Dong's figure, he turned his head and glanced at the flag officer, all of them secretly swallowed and spit, although he had heard that the chief archmage of the empire was very powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so magical.

"Are you alright?" Xia Dong asked impatiently, how can it be so troublesome to confirm your identity?

Awakened by his questioning, Marcus finally came to his senses, and he quickly shouted, "Salute!" At the same time, he put his hands flat on his chest and took the lead in saluting, and behind him, the soldiers all raised their hands in salute.

Xia Dong controlled the energy convergence of the stealth technique, and suddenly appeared, "Where is the nearest city?" ”

Knowing the identity of the other party, Marcus didn't dare to slack off, and replied with a serious face, "Report to Your Excellency, the nearest city is about two hundred leagues away from here. He thought for a moment and then said, "But our fortress is not far ahead, you can rest in the fortress for a few days, and I will immediately have people contact the legion commander, and I believe that they will soon send someone to meet you." ”

Two hundred leagues? Xia Dong, who has the linguistic expertise of this world, of course knows the Dao, which is almost equivalent to six hundred miles, that is, nearly a thousand kilometers!

So exaggerated? Fu Xueqin couldn't help but glance at Xia Dong, the nearest city was actually a thousand kilometers away, this was too desolate, right? What age is it? The mission says they want to conquer northern Britain, but with this level of transportation and civilization? Can you imagine how difficult it is?

Fu Xueqin saw that Xia Dong was in a depressed mood, so she interjected and asked, "Where is this?" ”

Marcuston was stunned for a moment, these two people had arrived here and still didn't know where the road was? However, he still replied seriously, "This is South Britain, close to the wall of the world?" ”

"The Wall of the World?" What is this? Xia Dong couldn't help but be curious, because it sounded amazing.

"It's the city wall that His Majesty Hadrian ordered to build, because His Majesty announced that this is the end of the world's realm, so we privately call it the wall of the world's realm."
