Chapter 114: Entering the City and Cleaning Up the Waste
Gordon, Abel, and Allen were told by Xiluo every day a few days ago not to talk nonsense after entering the city, just watch him play.
This will walk on the road, and it is also closed, but it is also honest.
Slowly, I walked a few kilometers away.
Alice, as the lord, had already led everyone to the fork in the square of the city, so she asked:
"Where is Lord Silo going to settle his family next? Need to re-establish a campsite? β
"There's no need to build a new camp.
My family came here as soldiers to protect the Nile.
They are no different from other human soldiers.
Just live in a barracks with other people. β
Silowen replied.
"Like a human soldier, huh...... His Excellency Silo is right, since that is the case.
Then it's good to live together, and you can also cultivate feelings and tacit understanding between each other. β
Alice nodded, a look of approval.
One dragon and one person said.
Behind them, a strong voice rang out:
"Your Lord! I'm afraid it won't work!
After all, there is still a big gap between beastmen and humans, and even the language and habits are different.
In my opinion, it's better to separate. β
"Huh?"
Silo twisted his slender neck and glanced at the man behind him who was talking.
Wearing black iron armor, he has a resolute face and a beard, and he looks quite strong.
γHuman Warriorγ
Grade: 9
Xiluo unconsciously narrowed his eyes.
"Your Excellency?"
"He is Captain Setle, a barracks commander in the Eastern Barracks, who has been staying in the barracks to manage the soldiers' daily life and training.
Today, in order to greet His Excellency Xiluo, he also specially brought a hundred soldiers from the eastern military camp. β
Alice said, glancing back at the man.
"It turned out to be the commander of the Eastern Barracks."
Silo was stunned.
In Nile, there is generally a barracks in the east, west, north, and south directions, which are managed by the barracks commander.
Above them all, is the paladin Andy.
However, Paladin Andy usually doesn't go to the barracks, and in Silo's opinion, it's just a name.
"Hello, Lord Silo.
All of our lords and soldiers are deeply honored that the Nile City has been able to attract the companions and dependents of His Excellency Silo.
But you, as a dragon, may not know much about militarized management.
Placing dependents and soldiers together would disrupt each other's routines.
And people are of different races, good at each other, and their physical abilities are also different.
The same language is different and even causes contradictions, which cannot be resolved in time, and how can we train together"
Setle said with a straight posture and neither humble nor arrogant.
"Captain Settle!
There are a few points that you may be mistaken!
My dependents, though beastmen, are not influential, and the leaders and wise among them have long mastered the language, so there is absolutely no problem in communicating.
In addition, as a member of the Nile City family in the future, you have too much prejudice against the beasts!
Keeping the Beastmen out and keeping them out of contact with the soldiers?
This will only deepen the gap between the two. β
Siloh retorted expressionlessly.
Settler wanted to speak.
But Siloh took the lead again:
"Captain Settle! You seem to have misunderstood a very important reason.
I...... Why did you bring my family to Nile? β
"Why?"
Setle was a little fluted.
At the same time, there was some sneer in my heart.
What why? Isn't it the disgusting guys who control this female lord behind their backs? And then to suck the blood of Nile?
It's ridiculous that Andy is actually in the same league with a five-colored dragon! It's a shame on Mother Earth God Church!
He was so disdainful in his heart, but his face was silent:
"To bring peace and tranquility to the Nile."
"It's just one of them, but the most important thing is to get the incompetent soldiers out of the barracks!
I've heard that...... A while ago, due to the increase in adventers and adventurers, various cases occurred frequently in the city, and some patrol soldiers and security soldiers were not enough.
I went to you and sent nearly a hundred men, but it turned out to be useless......"
Siloh whispered expressionlessly.
Everyone's expressions changed when they heard this.
Alice had a wry smile of helplessness on her face.
Paladin Andy frowned.
As the person being questioned, Setle's face twitched, and his expression was a little ugly:
"There is no way to do this, my soldiers are trained in how to fight the enemy and how to defend the city, and they are the elite of killing the enemy on the battlefield.
It is completely different from those who are responsible for security and patrolling. β
"These two are really two different things.
But as soldiers, you don't even have the most basic strength!
Obviously, as long as you cooperate well with the soldiers who are responsible for maintaining law and order, you can do it with a little strength.
But did you do it?
No!
The information that Lord Alice saw was that the Descenders and Adventurers had wounded the soldiers and fled...... A group of soldiers can't do even the most basic things, and I really don't know what to keep for! β
As he spoke, Xiluo's expression gradually became gloomy, and finally he roared:
"Or do you think that doing nothing and sucking blood in the barracks is what you should do as a soldier?"
This gesture startled Setle and the others around him.
No...... You are a five-colored dragon, what are you doing with such righteous words?
Also, you're an outer dragon, what's yelling at me as a professional?
Setle was a little dissatisfied:
"Lord Silo, watch your words! You haven't led troops, you haven't kept the city safe, and a lot of wishful thinking won't work......
There is no doubt that the soldiers I manage are all elite......"
"Your Excellency, your words have gone too far.
Setl was a good, formidable warrior, although the soldiers failed in maintaining the city.
But please don't insult them so much. β
Paladin Andy couldn't stand it anymore and spoke for his 'subordinates'.
"Insults? No, no, no......
Since Captain Setle said that his soldiers are all elite...... Your Excellency the Lord and Your Excellency Andy might as well come and see it together. What about these so-called elites? β
ββ¦β¦ No problem. β
Setter glanced at Andy, Alice, and spotted the two.
Paladin Andy acted a little indifferent.
Alice looked interested, and at the same time said with some self-shame:
"Your Excellency's proposal is good! Then again, it's been two years since I inherited the lordship, and I haven't even been to the barracks, which is really a bit dereliction of duty! β
Listen to this.
Setle could only nod and say:
"Since the lord wants to see it, let's take a look at what the elite soldiers of Nile City should look like."
As they spoke, a group of people began to approach the eastern barracks.
Barracks East of Nile.
It is at least a few hundred meters away from the living quarters of the lords.
Rows of low, dilapidated stone houses sit in front of the city walls, and they look neat and tidy along the walls.
A dozen or so soldiers sat on the ground and chatted.
Their weapons, leather armor, were all set aside, and they looked a little slouchy.
"I heard that today is the day when the four dragons enter the city, and Captain Setle brought more than 100 brothers to greet him.
I don't know what the four-headed dragon looks like. β
"Why don't you take a gamble? Bet on whether the dragon's brothers are metal dragons, five-colored dragons, or jewel dragons? β
"Idiot! Five-colored dragons, of course! Idiots know this! Boring! What do those dragons have to do with us! Hey! To be honest, all I care about right now is when it's my turn to rest.
I'm going to take a long vacation and go to the city of Tyre next door.
I heard that there is a new group of female believers in the temple of Eros over there, and I want to have a good conversation with them. β
"Just how much money do you have a year? Want to go to the Temple of Love too? Save it! β
"What? I am a strong believer in the love of God! Enjoy 50% off! β
The soldiers chatted energetically.
Suddenly, the soldier in charge of watching from the city wall shouted:
"Stop talking! They're coming! β
"What? What are they coming? There is an enemy attack? β
The people on the ground roared as they looked up at the walls.
I saw a soldier looking at the city with an anxious face.
"The lord and the dragon and Captain Setle are here! Let's get up and down! Don't let them see you like this! Otherwise, everyone will be doomed! β
The soldiers on the watchtower shouted again.
All the soldiers suddenly came to their senses, a spirit.
Immediately got up from the ground, and then shouted:
"Drill! Get up and down! The lord and the dragon are here! β
Bang la blah.
When a group of soldiers heard this, they immediately picked up their leather armor and weapons, and then, as if they had practiced many times, began to swing their swords into the air with a clear eye, or two by two, and practiced in a decent sparring.
Soon after.
Alice, Silo, Paladin Andy and others arrived.
Looking at a group of soldiers who were so drilled, he roared.
Paladin Andy nodded slightly:
"With such hard training, these soldiers must not be bad, and the previous ones were just accidents.
The strength of those adventers and adventurers doesn't seem to be weak...... In this way, they really can't be blamed. β
Alice also exclaimed:
"Captain Setle taught the soldiers that he really has a hand! Even in normal times, these soldiers practiced diligently.
If you go to the battlefield, you must be an elite person! Very good! β
"Your Excellency, my lordship is overrated, these are all things I should do.
As I said before, my soldiers are elite, but they are not good at doing some policing work. β
Setle said proudly, and at the same time, the corner of his eye glanced at Xiluo, meaning something.
Silo didn't speak.
As a dragon who often patrols the skies of Nile City, can he not know what is the situation of this group of soldiers?
Glance at it slightly.
The details of these soldiers were all exposed before his eyes.
γHuman Soldierγ
Levels: 1-4
What catches the eye is the 1-2 level in the patches, as well as a few 3 levels and a scattered 4 levels.
Look at the numbers 1 and 2 in the sheets.
Xiluo couldn't help but grin, and couldn't help but sneer.
A stream of air with the wind element erupted from the huge dragon's nose, splashing dust on the ground, making people can't help but take a few steps back.
"Your Excellency Silo! What are you? β
Setle sneered and asked, a little stunned.
"Sorry...... Actually, I'm not usually like this, I'm a more serious dragon...... But...... This time I really couldn't help it. β
Siloh was smiling, his nose puffing out of his air.
"Can't help it? Can't help what?
Silo Silo! What exactly are you talking about?
It's a place where the paladin and the lord are in person! Be serious! β
Seitel's originally upright and resolute face suddenly became a little tense, and he shouted with a little annoyance.
At this time, Andy looked at Xiluo and frowned slightly.
"Huh...... Hahahaha...... Because it's so funny.
Elite? You actually say that such a bunch of garbage is elite? Hahahaha...... Hahaha......"
At the end, Silo pointed at the soldier in front of him with his dragon claw and laughed.
The soldier, who was still pretending, couldn't hold back for a moment, revealing a dead face and glaring at Xiluo.
Setle said with a look of anger:
"Your Excellency Silo! Don't go too far! My soldiers are brilliant elite!
Don't you see them actively exercising? You actually say they are rubbish? Are you blind? Or did you come here on purpose?
Lord Andy! Your Lord! Please forgive me for not being able to communicate with such dragons! Nor is he worthy to take his dependents with my soldiers to defend the Nile! β
"Lord Silo...... Fit for it. β
The paladin shouted softly.
"Lord Silo...... Since you say that my soldiers are all waste? Don't know what the basis is? β
As a lord who had had in-depth communication with Xiluo, she still knew very well that Xiluo would not amplify words, so she couldn't help asking.
"On the basis? Isn't that simple? What is the strength of the soldiers, all it takes is a real battle!
Captain Settle, you say these are the elite soldiers you trained?
In that case, why don't you have a duel with my dependents? β
When Xiluo said this, the smile on the dragon's face gradually faded.
There was some annoyance in my heart.
For two years, because I thought that Alice had just become a lord, I didn't want to make things troublesome and big.
He endured it for two years! Let such a bunch of waste, parasitize on Nile City, and have fun every day and get gold coins for nothing! Can he not be angry?
Those gold coins should have been all his!
"You let an ordinary person duel with a beastman of superior physical ability? Do you think I'm a fool? Settler asked rhetorically and refused.
"Certainly not a duel in the ordinary sense of the word.
It's that I'll choose three, four, or five people from you to beat the one you choose from me, so it should be fine, right? β
"Three, four, five people fight one? With this disparity in numbers, the racial gap has been smoothed out, and even as long as a combined attack is launched, it is overwhelmingly disadvantageous for the beastmen.
It seems that Lord Silo is very confident in his family.
But...... I still want to warn Your Excellency Silo that this kind of duel is not advisable, and your family has almost no chance of winning!
Unless, they are all the best of the best! It's a high-level warrior! β
Paladin Andy reminded softly on the side, and after finishing speaking, he looked at the hyena man and the boar man.
The boar man looks tough, but the hyena man looks mediocre.
And remove the strongest of them.
The other beastmen didn't look like they had learned martial arts, nor did they have the talent for spellcasting and the breath of holy power.
In this way, this group is just ordinary beastmen!
Ordinary beastmen, one dozen three, one dozen four, one dozen five? Crazy?
"Thank you, Lord Andy, for the reminder.
I'm well aware of the strength of my dependents, and they're just ordinary beastmen.
It can't deal with the elite soldiers.
But against a bunch of waste, I think it's the perfect fit. β
Siloh explained.
