Xia Duo was pondering what the figure was for, and coldly bumped into the person in front of him - it was Dean.

"Xia Duo, why are you looking so carefully? Isn't it just a badge with a [Arcane Mark] applied to it! Let's go find our squad! ”

"This is the [Arcane Seal]?"

"Yes! What's wrong? "Dean doesn't know why, isn't it obvious, what else could it be besides the [Arcane Seal]!

"Nothing! Let's go! ”

Before leaving the Mage Tower, Xia Duo had already exchanged for a study scroll of [Secret Law Mark], although he had not yet studied it, but Xia Duo was sure that it was impossible to use a large number of numbers to form a flawless portrait with only [Secret Law Mark].

This was completely beyond his knowledge of the 0 ring spell, and there must be more complex principles in it.

It's just that there is no need to tell Dean about this, since the other party already thinks that it is the [Arcane Law Mark], why should he be different? It's good to know for yourself.

Putting away the badge and quickening their pace, the two soon followed the other apprentices to the No. 2 training ground, and along the way, they saw more and more soldiers, more and more dense.

When I arrived at the No. 2 training ground, I could already see a large number of soldiers waiting in formation.

The apprentice who came early has been assigned to his own combat team and is heading to the camp with the team!

No one had to choose, and a man who looked like an officer stared coldly at the apprentices with a long sword, and roared from time to time, "Hurry up!" Hurry up! ”

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo has a little more understanding of the status of apprentices, the status of apprentices as a whole is quite high, but not necessarily as individuals.

At least the officer could not care what the apprentice thought, or even whether he offended the future mage.

Thinking like this, Xia Duo became more and more cautious, and took the initiative to say hello as soon as he saw his combat team, "I am Xia Duo, I was ordered to join your team, and I will ask you to take care of me in the future." ”

Xia Duo's words that seemed ordinary to him were almost humble in the eyes of these ordinary soldiers, and the squad leader Jib thought that the person who came might be above the top and commanding, but he didn't expect Xia Duo to be so easy to speak.

Gibb had a good impression of Xia Duo, and he originally wanted to fight for command as much as possible, but what he said became-

"Welcome to join, the cleaning task is still based on the advice of Master Xia Duo, and we will try our best to cooperate with you."

Although he did not directly say that he would hand over the command, he also gave Xia Duo full respect, and the other team members did not have any contempt.

Xia Duo nodded and said, "Then go on, we-"

"Next, let's go to the quartermaster office to get war supplies."

With that, Gibb led Shado to the quartermaster's office, followed by the rest of the team. Along the way, Gibb introduces Shado to the rest of the team.

The two taciturn men, the brothers Jerry and Jesse, who were soldiers from their original territory like the captain Gibb, were drawn out to regroup this time.

Of the remaining seven people, four of them were villagers from outside the town, who voluntarily chose to join in order to allow their families to take refuge in the protection range of the Mage Tower.

The remaining three were recruited from among the adventurers of the territory, and they are still dressed as adventurers, while Xia Duo noticed a man with a thin body and wandering eyes.

Gibb only said one thing when he introduced him, he was trained as a professional wanderer, and his name was Ava, but Shado always felt that there was a familiar smell about this person.

Of course, it wasn't accurate to call it a taste, and Ava didn't have the slightest smell on him, just a feeling that made Xia Duo feel as if he had seen him somewhere.

While talking to Gibb, Shado also glanced at Ava from time to time, but Ava seemed to be very sensitive to the gaze of others, and whenever Shado looked at him, he would use the body of others to block Shado's view.

This made Xia Duo even more curious.

"Captain Gib, do you know the area of our cleaning mission this time?"

"I understand, I have to say, Master Xia Duo, you have chosen a good location, most of this area is some trees, there are few dense bushes, there are very few places where the orcs can hide, as long as we are cautious, it is unlikely that the orcs will be raided."

It can be heard that Captain Gib is quite satisfied with the mission in this area.

"Captain Gibb, have you ever seen an orc?" Xia Duo asked again.

"I've seen it! And even killed one with his own hands! Speaking of this, Captain Gib's mood was a little low.

Xia Duo could also hear it, but it was just a matter of his own life, so he still had to continue to ask, "Can you tell me?" ”

"Absolutely! I guess they want me to tell everyone about it, too! Gibb suddenly perked up and slowly spoke, "Just last year, my then captain took our team to the Green Bead Forest to clean up the goblins, but I didn't expect three orcs to rush out from the depths of the goblin camp. ”

Xia Duo's heart tightened, knowing that something bad was about to happen.

Sure enough, Gibb spoke in a deep voice, "Those three orcs killed two of my companions as soon as they rushed out, and then the remaining eight of us also paid a terrible price to kill them. ”

Hearing this, Xia Duo couldn't help but speak, "Orcs are really so strong? ”

There are many legends about orcs in the territory, all of which are full of adjectives such as savage, ferocious, powerful, and evil, but there is still a big difference between knowing from other people's mouths, learning from books, and seeing them with your own eyes.

Before Captain Gib could speak, a member of the team who had just been recruited by the adventurers suddenly untied the leather armor and inner lining of his upper body, revealing the wound on his shoulder.

"Look, this is what was cut by the orcs, when our team of 5 people went out of the town to hunt goblins, and as a result, we ran into orcs, just one orc made us lose three people, and the wound on my body was cut by the orcs before they died, if I hadn't been dragged back to the temple by my companions, I would have died a long time ago!"

Xia Duo looked at his long and narrow scar from his shoulder to his chest, and he could imagine the situation at that time, while the other person also spoke, "Master Xia Duo, don't underestimate the orcs, most of us have personally experienced fighting with the orcs, and the orcs are really powerful." ”

Of course, Xia Duo will not underestimate it, and will even greatly increase the threat level of the orcs, he just wants to know more details about the orcs.

Details that are not in those books.

"I've heard that orcs aren't very intelligent, is it true?"

"It's true, but that's only compared to humans." Captain Gibb took over and continued, "Orcs have tribes, families, and even beliefs, but they are easily provoked and give people the feeling of being beasts. ”

Next, Captain Gibb told Xia Duo some real cases he knew, and of course, the four new members of the team who had just said goodbye to their farmer status.

Everyone listened carefully, and Xia Duo could see that even the team members who were forcibly recruited by the adventurers did not have much resistance to joining the army against the orcs, which showed the prestige of Lord Savile.

Soon, the quartermaster arrived.
