Chapter 17: Wave after Wave
"Uncle, what do you think of my strength now?" Cao Zhongsheng walked to the side of Lawn who fell to the ground, gently leaned the blade of the sword against Lawn's neck, and said with a smile: "I have no interest and dare not go against you, but please don't trouble me, don't bully me, okay?"
Lawn, who was holding a certain place, suddenly felt even more pain, what the hell are you talking about? Who bullied you? It was obviously us who fell to the ground! Oh my God, I have never seen such a brazen person. His Majesty Retis is here to take him!
But after feeling the cold blade a little, Lawn's heart was cold, and he had to squeeze out a smile on his wrinkled face: "Okay, okay, I know, we won't bully you anymore." ”
Cao Zhongsheng felt very satisfied when he heard it, and gently patted Lawn's shoulder with a gesture of Lao Tzu talking to his son: "Well, the consciousness is good, continue to keep it." ”
After speaking, Cao Zhongsheng took back the iron sword like no one else, and put it in the scabbard made of several layers of linen wrapped together. Speaking of which, there are not many of these guards who have iron swords, and most of them use spears. Cao Zhongsheng looked around a little carefully, and only four of the people left behind had iron weapons, and the remaining dozen or so were all spears.
You must know that in the Middle Ages in the previous life, the popularity of iron weapons was not high. And Alan is only the guard of a small lord in the countryside, and the assembly rate of iron tools is about a quarter, and it seems that the iron ore resources here are not bad for Jack. Of course, it may also have something to do with the fact that the Great World of Allen is a high magic world, and maybe there are alchemists and the like.
After thinking about it for a while, Cao Zhongsheng walked back to his original place and continued to stand. As everyone knows, the eyes of the guards on the other side, who are a little far away from here, are about to pop out, and before they can react, five or six guards are put down by Cao Zhongsheng. Surprised, at the same time, I am a lot more afraid of this guy who doesn't look like an ordinary yellow person, so I don't want to provoke it.
After a long time, Cao Zhongsheng, who had cleaned up the battlefield, returned to the guard station in the town with the guards.
The original owner of Cao Zhongsheng's current body has not been to the town a few times in more than ten years, and he has no impression of the inside of the town. During the battle last night, Cao Zhongsheng only saw some houses at the entrance of the town from a distance, and now it can be said that it is the first time that Cao Zhongsheng has really entered the town.
There were a few fences at the entrance of the town and a wooden watchtower that had been burned to ashes in the fire last night, dozens of civilians and serfs were carrying timber at the gate to rebuild these simple fortifications, and about twenty guards and a knight stood guard to prevent the defeated bandits from coming back to kill them.
That knight is the one who shot the arrow last night, and his archery skills are quite good, if it weren't for his archery skills Adites would have died a long time ago, Cao Zhongsheng would probably be cool. So to some extent, this knight saved Cao Zhongsheng's life.
The returning guards entered the town in a scattered manner, and most of them lowered their heads when they saw the knights, which was the subconscious awe of the common people to the upper echelons under strict class rule.
Cao Zhongsheng didn't have this kind of mentality, so he bowed his head slightly when he passed in front of the knight, which was equivalent to saying hello. Seeing this, the knight looked at Cao Zhongsheng with a little surprise, and his impression of this yellow-skinned young man was much better.
As he passed the knight, Cao Zhongsheng flicked an eye of insight out of the corner of his eye.
Name: Dirks Smith
Power: 1.4
Constitution: 1.3
Dexterity: 1.6
Spirit: 1.5
Skill: Equestrian (Lv2): Able to fight on horseback skillfully, and will not have a negative impact on combat when on horseback
Archery (Lv3): Marksman-level archery, a realm that can only be achieved through years of study.
???
"It turned out to be a knight of Dirks, and the archery technique is already LV3, which is the first level 3 skill I have seen. Cao Zhongsheng thought to himself.
On the surface, Dix didn't seem to have a discriminatory attitude towards Cao Zhongsheng, and Cao Zhongsheng thought that he could get closer to him in the future.
After walking for a few minutes, passing by a few houses and scattered shops on the side of the street, Cao Zhongsheng came to the guard's station.
The Guard House was built in the center of the town and was a stone building with two guards standing guard at the entrance. They laughed and greeted the guards standing guard, and Cao Zhongsheng was able to enter after explaining that he was a new guard. Ignoring the disgusted eyes of the guards standing guard, Cao Zhongsheng asked where Lawn had registered and left, ignoring the pointing and pointing of a group of guards behind him.
In Cao Zhongsheng's view, the place of registration is the logistics office of the guard, and of course, the people who established the guard station do not have the concept of a logistics office.
After registering his name and receiving a set of uniforms, Cao Zhongsheng licked his face and asked the girl in charge of registration for a month's salary in advance. There was no way, the original home rummaged over and over again and only found a few copper carats, and the poor jingle bells. Cao Zhongsheng didn't want to live there, it was too far away from the town to be safe, and the gentleman didn't stand under the dangerous wall.
There are simple houses for the guards to live in, and the rent for a month is ten copper carats, and Cao Zhongsheng directly paid the money at the logistics office to receive the key.
With the remaining thirty copper carats, Cao Zhongsheng opened the door of his new house, which was a wooden house smaller than the old one, but the security was much better. You must know that even when the bandits attacked last night, the guard station did not fall. Except for the castle where Baron Jack lived, it was the safest place in the entire Jack Territory.
Cao Zhongsheng simply cleaned the room, put the iron sword next to the pillow and rested for a while, the battle was too exhausting. Although Cao Zhongsheng was not injured, exhaustion was inevitable. Soon, Cao Zhongsheng fell into a deep sleep.
At this moment, in the delicate little attic assigned to the knights in the Baron's Castle, Zeco sat on a chair with a look on his face, listening to the report of one of the guards below.
"So, after Cao Zhongsheng entered the guard's house, he lived directly in it?" Cai Ke asked with his eyes lowered and a hoarse voice.
"Yes, before the villain came, Cao Zhongsheng stayed in the house and didn't come out. The guard replied.
Knocking on the armrest of the chair, Zeco directly instructed: "I will arrange him under you, you arrange his position to the outermost every time you lead the team on duty, and kill him the next time the bandits attack again! Remember, I want to see his body next time!" The guard under Zecko is a guard captain.
"Yes, Lord Knight, but the bandits probably won't come back after attacking the town once in ...... years ago?" the captain of the guard asked, looking up suspiciously, and then closed his mouth in shock at the sight of Zeko's vicious eyes.
"I said I'd come, I'll come, don't ask too much, understand?" a gloomy voice surrounded the Captain's ears.
"Yes, yes!" nodded his head in a hurry, and the captain of the guard never dared to look up at Cai Ke again.
"Go ahead. ”
As the conversation ended, the captain of the guard nervously walked out of the small attic and returned to the guardhouse.
