Under the morning sun, the golden sunlight poured on the majestic walls of the city of Sorosolotan, which was made of blocks of cyan boulders almost a man high.

After tens of thousands of years of wind and rain, time grinded, the cracks of each cyan boulder gradually healed, and the defensive strength almost reached an almost terrifying level.

Facing the rising sun, Ivan drove his horse, slowly behind the flow of people, squinting at the magnificence of the largest city in the northwest.

As the largest city in the northwest, the city of Sorosolotan has an astonishing flow of people every day, caravans from all directions, farmers who enter the city to trade and gather, and various professional people.

Walking beside Ivan was Captain Hamm, who had just recovered from his injuries, consciously half a step behind Ivan, and while paying attention to the surging crowds around him, he said to Ivan: "I don't know why the city gate has not been opened at this time, usually wait until eight o'clock, and the city garrison will open the city gate." ”

As he was talking, Thomas and Raymond squeezed through the crowd in front of them, walked in front of Ivan, and gasped: "The city gate is finally open, we can go." ”

Ivan saw that the crowd in front of him, which had been slow, was like a dam blocked from the exit, and the floodgates suddenly opened, and the river poured out, and the speed of the crowd's advance suddenly increased.

Following the speeding flow of people, Ivan quickened his speed, and when he was about to cross the thick and tall city gate, a young soldier with a spear in his hand stopped Ivan's steps, and scolded Ivan with a serious face: "Dismount, I want to check." ”

Ivan grabbed the reins, frowned, what's the matter: "No one else needs to check, why do I want it." ”

The young soldier's face darkened, and he said in an unhappy tone: "If you want to come down, you will come down, what nonsense, what is the reason for asking, okay, I suspect that you are hiding items that are harmful to the city of Sorosolotan." As he spoke, he waved the spear in his hand, as if to show off his powerful force.

David wouldn't say that he was just coveting Ivan's horse, which was a rarity in the northwest. The different Midwests had an endless prairie with several large horse farms, and were the main source of horses throughout the empire.

In the northwest, the climate is harsh, and in winter it is so cold that even the birds dare not dig it out when they go to the toilet, for fear that one will fall off, and in summer it is so hot that there are no water stains when you sweat, and you will be directly dried by the violent sun when you sweat.

Therefore, raising horses in the northwest is a money-losing business, so except for the cavalry in the army, or some aristocratic and rich people, ordinary people in the northwest do not talk about horses, and even who has a donkey, it is a big deal.

David is a recruit who has just signed up for the garrison, and he doesn't know a lot of things, but he knows that the garrison is a place with a lot of oil and water, and he came to join the army for this reason.

After just a few days of garrisoning at the city gate, David figured out some of the rules of the garrison secretly, and also knew what oil and water could be fished and which oil and water could not be fished.

After opening the city gate, David, who was standing far away, aimed at Ivan, who originally had horses, and he would not dare to provoke a big-headed soldier with no background, after all, in the northwest, only nobles or rich people can afford to raise horses.

But who let Ivan wear a worn-out black leather jacket on his body, and the familiar leather boots on his feet are still military-style leather boots that the military has eliminated for decades, and even civilians disdain to wear them.

Therefore, David thought that this horse might have been picked up by Ivan, a poor ghost, who had been lucky enough to pick it up from somewhere, and such a person should be regarded as oil and water that could be fished out of the secret rules of the garrison.

If Ivan knew what David was thinking, he would definitely cry and laugh, he didn't expect that he would be looked down on like this because of the dress on his body.

At this moment, Thomas Hamm and the others finally caught up. Seeing this situation, Hamm asked Ivan a few words, figured out what happened, and directly questioned the young soldier David:

"Who are you in charge of, what are you doing here, why haven't I heard that the garrison of Sorosolotan City still has rules for stopping people. Hamm's gloomy face, with its long scar, flowed like a living creature when he spoke, and it was terrifying.

David was taken aback, and in the end, the metal spear in his hand gave him some sense of security, he swallowed his saliva secretly, and said calmly: "Look at your dress, you should also be in the army, this person has nothing to do with you, why bother with things?"

"Fart, you bullshit, don't say I know this adult, even if I don't know him, should the people of the empire be bullied by you like this?

David was questioned by Hamm's voice and backed back again and again.

"Do you say in vain that soldiers take serving the country as their aspiration, loyalty to the monarch as their duty, and protecting the people as the foundation? Protecting the people of the empire is our duty, and the truth that our soldiers believe in. ”

Hamm said that David's face changed from red to blue, and from green to white, like a palette.

"Well, well said. When Hamm heard Hamm's words, the crowd of onlookers could not help but applaud and applaud. At this moment, people felt that the scar on Hamm's face seemed to be less hideous and terrifying, and became kind and pleasing to the eye.

Hamm was embarrassed to wave his hand at the crowd, and as he waved his hand, he said shyly, "Laugh, laugh." Compared with the terrible appearance of reprimanding David just now, it also made the onlookers' good impression of him rise again and again, and there were even two or three open and hot girls who threw several winks at Hamm.

"What's going on, what's going on, what are you all doing here, I don't know if the passage of the entire city gate is about to be blocked because of you? ”

At this time, a middle-aged fat man in gorgeous armor came out of the crowd, with a pair of small eyes, cloudy and dull, a mouthful of yellow teeth, the air exhaled was stinky, and his steps were vain.

Seeing the middle-aged fat man, David seemed to have found the backbone of the heart, and respectfully saluted the middle-aged fat man: "Report to Deputy Captain Ma De, it is they who have hindered the official duties of our garrison, I will persuade them, they have repeatedly taught and insulted and humiliated." ”

Following the direction that David pointed, the middle-aged fat man moved his gaze to Hamm and the others, and when he saw the black leather armor on Hamm's body clearly, his face immediately changed, he was not David, a recruit who didn't know anything, and knew what this meant.

The middle-aged fat man glanced at David, this idiot, to see how he would clean him up in the future, and then politely saluted Hamm:

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, but you belong to the Predator Legion?"
