Chapter 604: Check the level

There wasn't a long queue in front of the checkpoint, because not many people would want to touch it. The people of Huttonmar choose not to go out in this situation, and people who don't have important things to do will definitely not get to Huttonmar from this hellish place. The mere passers-by also had plenty of reason not to suspect the guards, and from this point of view, Carl and Erin, who were dressed strangely, were simply outliers in the crowd.

Carl had never been more nervous than he was now, and his nervousness came from Erin holding his arm, not from the guards' inspection. He was never afraid of the principality guards who were armed with cold weapons and had little actual combat effectiveness. If he could, he could even take out the entire squad of Duchy Guards. But that doesn't make any sense, it only creates greater conflict.

Erin was calmer than Carl, and with a smile without a hint of awkwardness or embarrassment, she walked steadily towards the checkpoint. Like an ordinary meeting in the morning of Ghent, it was like a guard entering the palace in Ghent by the side of the princess. The only difference is that she doesn't have to maintain the necessary etiquette here. So she naturally became more relaxed, and it was not the princess who was waiting for her in front of her, but the guards of the Duchy of Belmar.

The Duchy's guards raised their right hands before they approached the barricade, signaling them to stop. Routine inspections not only annoy passers-by, but also distress the guards on duty. Therefore they will never have a good attitude towards passers-by, and if they can ignore orders, they may not let anyone pass. This is also the reason why they actually don't have much combat power, compared to the Delos Empire, the way the Duchy governs the army is very different from them.

"Stop!" a bearded, older-looking guard stepped forward. The armor on his body looked incongruous, because he was too lazy. He was even yawning as he walked over. And the strong smell of alcohol emanating from him almost made Erin want to vomit, drinking while on a mission, believing that this would never happen in the army of the Delos Empire.

"Tell me what you are here for. He said impatiently to the two of them.

Although his attitude is very bad, his attitude makes the two secretly happy. Because with their state, it should be easy to get through the level without being checked, as long as they can make them impatient while proving that they are just ordinary people. "We want to go to Huttonmar. Erin said with a smile, and kept pinching Carl's arm with her fingernails to signal him to cooperate. "That's right, we're going to Huttonmar. Carl nodded hurriedly.

"Ah......h "What the hell is good about Huttonmarr? bread that tastes like sawdust, bland rum, and wandering adventurers, everything sucks, why do you want to go there?" his words sounded like a test to the two of them at first glance, but that was what he really thought. There are many complaints, which is why they are assigned to such tasks by the town hall.

"I just want to go to places I haven't been to before. Erin gestured to her clothes. "As you can see, we are alien travelers. ”

"Traveler, where are you from?" asked the guard.

His question was difficult for Erin, as she was unfamiliar with the continent of Arad. So she hurriedly grabbed Carl's arm again and asked him to answer for herself. But at this time, Carl can't think of a place that is known to the public and does not make the other party suspicious, so he can only say that it is a small place that most people don't know. "We're from Wille. ”

"What the hell is that place?" the guard asked, turning his head to his companion. "Hey, Walker, do you know Viller?"

The guard, known as Walker, spat on the ground and intently carved the hard bread with his knife. "God knows, it's a small village. ”

The bearded guard turned his head, "Trust me, Huttonmar will disappoint you, are you sure you're going there?" He obviously wanted to get the two out of here as soon as possible, as he would have to order his men to move the barricades if they were to pass.

Erin smiled and nodded, "How do you know if Huttonmar is going to let us down if we don't go and see for yourself?"

"What a hopeless two...... the bearded guard shook his head, as if thinking their heads were burned. "Okay, let's go ahead, but if you're disappointed and want to go to the town hall to complain, don't blame me for not reminding you. Hey, you two, go get out of the way!" he commanded his men.

"See, it's easy, isn't it?" said Erin, winking mischievously at Carl.

"Exhausted...... Karl sighed with his head down, talking to the guards was a grind. They live like the walking dead, with a meager salary, but they are always thinking about how to be lazy.

The rest of the road was up to Carl, and although Erin had passed through Huttonmar once on her way to the Afaria Mountains, she didn't stay long. For some reason, she didn't get to meet Kelly, who was quite famous in the town. However, there was no way to do it, she would never have thought that the former instructor would be on the Arad continent anyway.

Erin didn't have much hope for Hutton Marr, in fact, after meeting Carl, all she was thinking about now was a way back to the Celestial Realm. And Kelly's letter to Carl is undoubtedly a great opportunity, maybe this time they can really find a way, as long as they can make an effort, the opportunity for change will come to them.

With Huttonmar on guard, Carl and Erin made it to town without incident. Honestly, there wasn't much else that interested Erin other than a few fountains and a dessert shop that Irene hadn't seen before.

Carl, of course, understands Erin, so when he comes to the main street, he asks Erin. "Would you like some ice cream?"

"Are you rich?" said Erin, looking expectantly.

"Of course, otherwise I would have starved to death. Carl nodded.

Erin was a little hesitant because she wouldn't be a little too relaxed to eat ice cream in the current situation. However, the temptation of sweets to her was still a little greater, so she nodded happily. "Go buy it. ”

The dessert shop is not too far from Kelly's shop, and you can also observe the neighborhood by the way. After all, Kelly's guy has too many "enemies", and Carl doesn't want to have unlucky people to bother him when they meet. He thought that this time he had to ask Kelly clearly, whether she had been to the imperial capital or been an instructor in the courtyard of the imperial daughter. He had never heard her mention it before, and it stands to reason that the experience in the imperial capital should not be so bad, maybe it was Kelly who deliberately did not mention those things. However, Carl thought about it, and there was a good reason why Kelly didn't mention it, that is, it didn't make much sense. After all, none of these things could help the Ardennes Heights garrison repel Callert's frenzied attack, and it was not easy to survive a bloody battle under the circumstances.
