"I didn't expect it was you we were escorting this time..."
After some conversation, they put away their grief over the death of their companions, and everyone started to set off again.
I don’t know if it was because of Ariza’s encounter with the wall, but the rest of the journey went extremely smoothly. Although occasionally some small bandit groups blocked the way, they were all dismissed by everyone.
After continuing to move forward for almost half a month, everyone finally arrived at their destination, the Baizhan City where the Zijin Empire and the Orc Empire handed over.
As the last barrier in the northern part of the Zijin Empire, Baizhan City is different from other areas of the Zijin Empire. It is less magnificent and more rough and iron-blooded. If it is a city, it is more like a military fortress. When you are in it, the air is
The smell is full of iron-blooded flavor.
On the huge city wall hundreds of meters high, countless sword marks and ax marks all bear witness to the wind and rain that this city has experienced. It has kept the ferocious orcs away for countless years. As long as it is the first time for humans to come here, there is no chance.
Full of respect for him.
Several people entered through the south gate, and the guards were a little laxer in comparison. If they entered through the north gate, it would be more troublesome to enter the city.
Woo woo woo....
As soon as a few people entered the city gate, they heard the sound of a horn, which instantly made everyone nervous.
Then there was the sound of heavy footsteps, the sound of armor scraping, and the sounds of footsteps getting closer and closer, all of which made the atmosphere become more solemn.
It didn't take long for a pair of warriors wearing heavy armor and exuding strong evil aura to pass through the crowd and begin to ascend the city gate in an orderly manner.
Soon, the city gate began to enter martial law, the huge city gate slowly closed, and the city gate became noisy for a while.
"Fortunately, we entered the city, otherwise we would have been in trouble!" Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They all know that this kind of border city is different from other places. Once martial law is imposed, you must have a special pass to enter or exit.
Otherwise, even a ninth-level powerhouse will not know the direction, otherwise it will be regarded as a provocation to the empire.
"No, this is the Hundred War Army"
Seeing this, Delin couldn't help but look solemn. He looked at the sword-shaped mark on the chest of the opponent's armor and recognized the opponent's identity.
"Yes, it's the Hundred War Army, but it seems that there is a war!" Hearing this, the old man, an eighth-level magician on the side, also said calmly.
Especially the way they looked at Bai Zhanjun was full of respect and yearning, as if looking at their companions, full of passion. Although they didn't say it, Darren still saw something different from others in their eyes, as if they too
One of them is average.
And since entering the Baizhan City, several people have shown different expressions. Although they all hide it well, Darren can feel the excitement in their hearts.
"Well, let's go to the city first!" Alina also looked solemn, not knowing what she was thinking.
But when she turned around, she glanced at the leading general.
At the gate of the city, hundreds of soldiers joined, and soon the noisy gate began to calm down. In the wide streets, except for the patrolling sergeants and some traders, people had no choice but to leave.
Even if people walk through occasionally, the number of people is not large.
"Captain..."
At this moment, Adams, who had entered the city early, rushed over with two companions. They were looking for a place to stay in advance, but looking at the eager faces of several people, it was obvious that things were not going well.
"What's going on? Have you found the place?" Seeing the appearance of several people, Alina frowned slightly and asked with a solemn face.
"Well, I found it, but the place is a bit small..." Adams said helplessly.
"Okay, let's settle down first and talk!"
After that, the three people led the group to a courtyard. The courtyard was not big or small, but it was a little small for more than a dozen of them!
"That's your room over there, and the separate room over here is Lord Darren's room!" After entering the door, Adams began to introduce it to everyone.
Darren and several female family members were each assigned a separate room, and the rest of them were divided into two and three people per room. Darren didn't say anything about this.
After all, he really wasn't used to living with other people.
In the courtyard lobby
Darren and Alina were sitting at the front, and Adams was introducing everyone to the situation in Battle City.
"According to what you said, the Orc Empire is preparing to directly attack Baizhan City this time!"
After listening to Adams' introduction, Darren was also surprised.
Although he has never been to the Hundred Battles City, he still knows something about the situation on these borders.
Although the border has never been stable for countless years, there have been no large-scale conflicts in recent decades.
Especially this time the opponent also dispatched a war beast like Behemoth, so they were obviously fully prepared.
As the totem behemoth of the Orc Empire, the Behemoth is the lowest level Black Iron Behemoth, which is also the peak of the ninth level. There are platinum, gold, and purple gold Behemoths above it, which is the lowest level Black Iron Behemoth.
It is not something that ordinary people can drive.
"Well, I heard that in order to deal with this battle this time, the empire has sent two sword masters and a magic saint to preside over it. I'm afraid this war won't be over in a short time if it wants to stop!"
"Okay, let's go and rest first. Delin and I will send Linda to the city lord's mansion first and inquire about the news!" After hearing this, Alina did not make a decision immediately, but prepared to complete the mission first.
Yes, the Linda they escorted on this mission was from the Lord's Mansion of Baizhan City, and she was also the most beloved daughter of the Duke of Baizhan and the Sword Master of Light. It was for this reason that they did not hesitate to escort her back.
"Mr. Darren, why don't you come along and let Linda thank you for taking care of you on the way!" Originally Darren was not too concerned about this kind of thing. On the contrary, he was now thinking about the invasion of the Orc Empire.
Linda's words brought him back to reality.
"Um"
"This...that's okay!"
He looked up at Linda, glanced at Alina again, and then agreed, and by the way, he also went to inquire about the news like Alina did.

The Lord's Mansion of Baizhan City
Currently serving as the city lord is Linda's second brother Cassius, a ninth-level peak earth-attribute warrior. When he heard that Linda was back, he immediately walked out of the city lord's mansion with a group of guards.
"Linda, it's you, you're back," Cassius said excitedly when he saw Linda in the crowd.
"Second brother..."
Seeing this, Linda returned the favor lightly.
But Cassius was not angry at all. After all, although they were brother and sister, their ages were very different.
"Meet the City Lord..."
Upon seeing this, the others immediately began to salute briefly. In comparison, the other party was a city lord after all, and he was also a ninth-level peak warrior, and his status in this Hundred Battles City was even higher.
