Chapter 40: Arrival
"Stop. A city gate soldier in front of the gate of Arrowstone Fort blocked Mo Xuan and his party from the door: "Who are you?"
He had never seen this style of noble badge, if it was a big nobleman's badge, as a city gate soldier, he must know, but if it was a small nobleman? The little nobleman had so many elite troops? This big man who exuded murderous aura all over his body and had a face full of people who was not close to the living was not something that a small nobleman could raise.
"We are Viscount Flame's subordinates, and we have been ordered to come to support Arrowstone Castle, please get out of the way. Lucas, riding his tall horse, ran up to the gatekeepers and threw a badge to the gatekeepers.
The gate soldiers took the badge and looked at it, it was covered with burning flames, and some werewolves could be vaguely seen burning in the flames.
This badge is different from Mo Xuan's own noble badge, but the king ordered the creation of a badge with a record of meritorious deeds, which means that this badge is only owned by Mo Xuan alone.
"Viscount Flame?" the gate soldier kept repeating this, as if something was circling in his mind, but he just couldn't catch it, which made him very distressed.
At this time, the captain of the squad who came from a hurry saw this badge, as a veteran of Arrowstone Fort, he immediately understood what this badge meant, and his face was flushed, and he glanced at the highest and largest flag in the convoy with reverence as if it were burning when the flames painted on it blew by the strong wind.
"May I ask if this is Viscount Mo Xuan's army. The team leader carefully took the badge from his subordinates' hands and returned it to Lucas.
Lucas was stunned for a moment, not understanding why this squad leader would know the name of the viscount, but he replied anyway: "Yes." β
"Could you please come out and prove it? The team leader said cautiously.
"You. Immediately, Lucas's face changed, and immediately there was an urge to kill the unreasonable squad leader in front of him.
But Lucas understood what kind of place this was, the defense of the Arrowstone Fort Kingdom was second only to Yanjing's city, and there was no good end to making trouble here, so he had to glare at the team leader angrily: "You wait." Leaving such a sentence hatefully, Lucas drove his horse towards Mo Xuan.
"The head is still you, and that guy who looks very powerful was actually said away by you in a few words. The soldier who had just checked the badge stuck out his tongue at Lucas's back with pride, and then said adoringly to his captain.
", get to work, don't bother me. The squad leader pushed the soldier away, touched his sweat-soaked back, and whispered to himself, "Damn, it's really scary." β
After a while, Lucas came over with a slightly unhappy Mo Xuan, although he had just been promoted to the nobility for a while, but Mo Xuan had long known that the nobles only needed to show their badges when they entered the city, this was the privilege of the nobles themselves, and now someone asked him to come forward in person, although he knew that Arrowstone Fort was now in a state of war, and the inspection was strict, Mo Xuan's heart was also understandable, but this unhappy feeling always haunted him, this was the first time he used the privileges of the nobility and had not succeeded.
"Huh. Looking at the squad leader in front of him, Mo Xuan was a little surprised, isn't this Barron, the squad leader of the archers, how could he be here.
With nervousness and puzzlement in his heart, Mo Xuan still got off the horse: "Hello captain." β
Mo Xuan's greeting made Barron feel sad: "It seems that it's really you, it's so good that I didn't expect to meet our magic hero." β
"Why are you here?" Mo Xuan asked, pointing to the city gate soldier uniform on Barron's body, and asked in surprise.
As soon as Barron heard it, he knew what Mo Xuan was going to ask, and his face, which was already much older, was slightly bitter: "This is a long story, you better go to the city first!"
"Well, okay, come to me sometime. Mo Xuan was a little polite, and then ordered Lucas to take his men into the city.
The hideous chariots passed by one by one, and the oppressive aura dissipated, and the city gate soldiers relaxed their suppressed mood, and then began to check the convoy behind.
Mo Xuan's convoy was followed by Cobbert's convoy, and since they met, Colbert followed Mo Xuan's convoy, and along the way, Mo Xuan camped and they also camped, and Mo Xuan rested and they rested.
Although Mo Xuan and Chipman did not deal with each other, he still talked to Colbert briefly, and then let Colbert leave them alone.
For Corbett, the danger encountered on the road alone is obviously much greater than that of following behind Mo Xuan, because some powerful demonic beasts may attack them, but no demonic beast will attack an army of thousands of people, quantitative change causes qualitative change is the best explanation for the army, the strength of an individual is never as strong as a group, and the marching ant is the best proof.
"What's the matter with the captain, why is that nobleman so polite to you?" the soldier who had been scolded just now licked his face and walked over to the squad leader, whose face was obviously cloudy.
"Remember, I told you the story of the arson hero?" Barron said with a little pride, unlike Mo Xuan's first encounter, the taciturn Barron showed off at first, it seems that Barron has been through a lot of things during this time.
"Could it be that you're talking about him?" the soldier gestured past the gate and walked past the vanished Mo Xuan.
"That's right. Barron was even prouder.
"Wow. The two of them spoke in a loud voice, so the soldiers around them could hear it, and there was an uproar, and even the convoy that was being inspected behind was asking what was going on.
The information that the masses are interested in is always the fastest to spread, and before Mo Xuan and his party have settled down under the guidance of the reception, this craze has spread throughout the entire Arrow Stone Castle.
Heroes are also heroes within reach, heroes who have had the same experience as them are always the existence of people's attention and heated discussions, and Mo Xuan is a civilian hero, although he has the identity of a magician, but people subconsciously ignore this.
Mo Xuan, who is now famous in the battle of Arrowstone Castle, is the existence they worship and admire, unlike the noble god of war Potlem, who is so far away, Mo Xuan looks like a friend by his side, that strong sense of substitution, as if the more enthusiastic the discussion, the more famous they can be like Mo Xuan.
For a while, the embarrassment, loss, and psychological discouragement of being attacked by the orcs were all transformed into attention to Mo Xuan, and the little hidden ambition and fantasy in his heart.
"What you said is true?" said Chipman in a tone of disbelief, he had just inquired about why people were talking so highly about Mo Xuan, but he didn't expect itγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
