Chapter 16: The Overseer's Sword
A villa in the east of Prontera.
This villa covers an area of about five acres, and the area of five acres is not large, but in the capital of the Kingdom of Rune, Prontera, this five-acre villa represents not only money, but also a symbol of status and status, because in this city, there are only four households with a residential area of five acres, and all of them are powerful ministers of the dynasty! And the owner of this villa is the residence of the first ace legion of the Kingdom of Lune, the general of the Dragon Knight Legion, and Shawsenald.
Shaw Sennard is a person who abides by the rules in both military and daily life, and his life seems to be only a word for military discipline, even if it is his children, they can't get any convenience with him, which makes him make a lot of enemies. After all, a powerful minister who doesn't know how to be accommodating is definitely a thorn in everyone's side and a thorn in the flesh.
Shawsonard's house was simple, without the slightest extravagance, and even the security of the house was only taken care of by a team of ten people. The ten-man squad was not fixed, it was drawn from the dragoon brigade under his jurisdiction, and it was once a month, which was the only rule that Shawsonard had made in his life.
Letting a soldier of the Dragoon Legion take care of the home care home will be scoffed at by many people, but the place in the home of Shawson Ente is something that every member of the Dragoon Brigade desires.
They don't have any income for Shawsonard's home, but they are hungry for something more useful, which is to receive Shawsonard's individual instruction and training, which can be said to be an addition to their practical and theoretical meals. After these soldiers return to the army at the end of the month, one or two of them will definitely show their outstanding points in the later military operations and improve their ranks, and the remaining eight or nine will have a clear advantage over the others in handling the battle and become a real elite.
"Captain, we'll go back in three days, you said that as soon as we go back, will you be promoted to regimental commander, then you will break the record and become the youngest regimental commander!
The young man he called the captain had long blond hair, but there was always a hint of gangsterism on his handsome face, but it was Andre. After Starmark left, André said in a casual conversation with Abner that he wanted to be a soldier, and Abner didn't ask why, so he went out alone. A day later, Andrei, who was already past the age of joining the army, received an invitation from the Dragoon Legion.
After entering the army, André fully demonstrated his potential and talent, coupled with the careful teaching of the knowledgeable Abner, he became a dazzling new star in the army in just five years, and his military achievements are close to those of those who have been in the army for more than 20 years. And Andre is gifted with extraordinary body bones, even if he has passed the best age for cultivation, but in the cultivation of martial arts and Xuanli, he is like sitting in a rocket class and going straight to the sky, in just five years, he has improved from an adventurer of tenth-level Xuanli to the level of sixty-seven, which is unbelievable for most people.
In the end, Andre, a dazzling new star, was finally selected by Shawsonard this month and brought to his home for further study, which also indicates that the rise of this new star has become unstoppable.
The soldier who spoke to Andrei was ten years older than Andrei, and he joined the army twelve years earlier. At first, because of the arrogance of a senior soldier himself, he was not convinced by Andre as the captain, but in the process of getting along, Andrei showed excellence, but he was deeply impressed.
When Andre heard this, he shook his head with a smile and said, "No one can say well, and the teacher told me that it may not be a good thing to rise too fast." ”
"Captain, who is your teacher, I always heard you say that the teacher said, the teacher said, we really want to know which master taught you such a monster. If he still accepts apprentices, why don't you introduce me to me. Another soldier with a freckled face leaned over and said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, don't talk about being an apprentice, being an apprentice is also a grandson, why don't you accept us, captain. The rest of the soldiers also coaxed one by one, of course they didn't really know how to be Andre's apprentice, even if they were not ashamed to ask, but they would never be able to give a young man who was more than ten years younger than himself to perform a mentoring ceremony, after all, the hardest place for a soldier is his knees.
"I can't say his name without the teacher's permission, so don't ask. Andre laughed and blasted away everyone, he naturally wouldn't say that his teacher was Abner, otherwise the sensation caused would be even more amazing than the military exploits he had accumulated in the past five years, after all, Abner only had seven disciples so far, except for himself and the missing Star Scar and the junior brother who had just started, the rest were all giants who could make the Kingdom of Lune shake by stomping their feet.
"Oh, that's a pity. Everyone failed to ask Andre's identity, and they all showed disappointed looks, of course, in fact, it was just to show Andre, and they didn't really take it to heart.
The tall soldier who spoke first relieved Andre of the siege: "Okay, cheer up, don't tease the captain, there will be a little thief who doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth in a while." ”
Hearing the words "little thief", everyone's eyes lit up, and they all geared up, they received a letter today, and it was written that they would take the Overseer's Sword in the afternoon.
The Overseer's Sword isn't a magic weapon, but it has a special meaning. Before abdicating, each emperor would give four Overseer Swords to his courtiers, and as the name suggests, this sword gave Shosenard the status of an Overseer. The overseers supervise the entire government, once there is a disruptive regime, they can be cut down first, and it is also restrictive for the new monarch, once the new monarch is mediocre or brutal, then he can be removed with other supervisors, and then a new monarch can be established. Therefore, each generation of those who wield the sword of the Overseer is one of the most powerful officials on the spot.
A few people, you and I said one by one.
"I've been trained by the general this month, but I'm dead and alive, and today I can finally vent. ”
"That's right, I really don't know where the blind boy came from, he stole a few children's things, and he was delusional and worried about the general's house, and he also wrote a notice, it's really bold."
The tall soldier shook his head and said: "What a boldness, it's just a lack of a string in the head, I really can't imagine anyone in this world who rushed to the general's house to steal things, that little guy must not know how terrible the general is." ”
"How terrible is the general?" said the freckled soldier with a wicked smile.
"Have you ever heard of the Demon King of Monrok, the Great Demon King who was engaged in the destruction of the lives of Monrok City in the first place. I guess if he compares to the general, I'm afraid it's a little worse. The tall soldier whispered his opinion.
At this moment, the soldier with freckles on his face suddenly stood up straight, saluted respectfully behind him, and said loudly: "Hello general!"
"Good general!" As soon as these three words came out, the soldier who had just been saying how terrifying Shosenald was, like a cat stepping on his tail, almost jumped up, turned around sharply and saluted and shouted: "Good general!"
Cold sweat soaked his sideburns in an instant, and he would not frown in the face of life and death fighting, but he was so nervous that he didn't dare to open his eyes at this time.
However, the rebuke that should have come did not come, and there was only laughter.
The tall soldier immediately reacted that he had been fooled, and scolded angrily: "Stinky boy, you are looking for a beating!"
Raising his hand and smashing it with a punch, the soldier with freckles on his face tilted his head, then grabbed his right hand, clasped the punch, and at the same time turned his body, and his left hand was against the opponent's shoulder, and he was about to throw it out.
The reaction of the soldier who shot was also very fast, his arm shook, and at the same time he grabbed his backhand, and his other hand also reached out at this time, grabbed the opponent's shoulder, and jumped behind the opponent with the strength of the freckled soldier.
The freckle-ridden soldier was not slow to react, his body jumped sideways, and at the same time, his hands were released, his arms shook, and after striking out with both fists and the opponent, he fell steadily to the ground.
"Okay, Ali Xiaoqi, don't make trouble, it's about to be the time when the general orders us to guard, if we let that little thief take advantage of the chaos, none of us will be able to eat and walk around. Conrad, the eldest soldier in the crowd, opened his mouth and said, his majesty is even better than Andre among the people, although he is not the captain, but because of his age and calmness, everyone is still very convinced of this big brother, even Andrei, the captain, will respect his opinion.
As soon as Conrad spoke, the two had to stop, they were used to fighting, and they wouldn't really hurt the harmony, just to use their hands to comfort their muscles and bones. And more importantly, the general ordered them to guard the Overseer's Sword from two p.m. to ten p.m. They don't have to guard before two o'clock, everything is arranged by the general, and if they don't get to the specified time, they will affect the arrangement. So even if the Overseer's Sword is stolen, it doesn't matter to them. But now it is almost two o'clock, and the next time is their care time, and if something goes wrong, then they have to bear all the responsibility. With the importance of the Overseer's Sword, even a few more heads would not be enough for them to lose.
The moment they stopped, Conrad's face suddenly changed, "No, what smell, where is the fire?"
With his voice, everyone else was stunned. Andre sniffed hard twice, and sure enough, there was a faint smell of burning.
"There's a fire in the back garden!" The next moment, Conrad had already identified the direction and pointed out the location of the source of the fire.
"Brother Qi, Brother Li, the two of you go to the back garden to take a look at the fire, and help put out the fire by the way, Brother An and Brother Da go to check the entrance and exit of the villa, whether there are any other people injured, and then go to the study to talk to us, and the rest of the people go to the study with me first, and be careful that the other party moves away from the mountain." It's our turn to guard the next time, and there must be no mistakes!" At that moment, Andre showed the demeanor of a captain, and orders were issued quickly and methodically.
