At the table in the corner, three people sat facing each other.
These two big men, one carrying a big sword and the other carrying a shield, are obviously different from the other drunkards watching the fun. They have fierce expressions and strong bodies. The degree of wear and tear on the chain armor and weapons and shields on their bodies is enough to show that both of them are high-ranking men.
I have been on the battlefield and seen ruthless characters with blood.
The three of them knew each other by name.
The man carrying the sword was named Ralph, and the man holding the shield was called Lorca. As for Bai Xiaowen, he temporarily gave himself a name that was not inconsistent with the name - Dio Skelboom.
Bai Xiaowen checked the attributes of Ralph and Luojia, and was secretly surprised. Luojia is a level 3 shield warrior with a total attribute of close to 40, but Ralph is even stronger. There is actually an elite affix after his name, level 3.
Champion swordsman!
"Dior, what made you leave your hometown and come to this remote country? I remember that Walter Run is a wealthy city." Ralph said in a low voice.
Bai Xiaowen continued to show the answer he deserved: "The North is waiting for liberation. I left the warm Voltron just to participate in the battle to liberate the North!"
"Well said!" Next to Ralph, the younger Lorgar praised.
"Yes, my brother, the north belongs to us Vikings, and we have to drive out the damn imperial dogs!" Ralph whispered, "If you want to join the Ursoc resistance, we will be happy to do so.
Open your arms - but what the resistance needs are strong warriors."
Luojia nodded: "You need to prove yourself. A fight in a tavern doesn't mean anything."
Bai Xiaowen showed just the right amount of shock: "You are members of the Ursok resistance? Then why do you sit back and watch a flea insult the great Viking leader?"
"Shh..." Ralph whispered: "We came to Ellu City to complete the special mission of Lord Ursoc. Although this city has no prejudice against the rebels, we still have to proceed with caution. Giant
The dragon will not care about the barking of a wild dog, and Lord Ursoc will not care about how a down-and-out bard arranges him. However, we are still very grateful for your upright speech. From you, we see the hope of the North.
.”
Bai Xiaowen’s voice:
"Tch, I've already seen that you two are rebels! When you listened to the song "Usok the Regicide", you drank 30% faster. The one holding the shield clenched his fists and then loosened his fists.
He fired it five times, as if his own father had been insulted...Are there any other possibilities besides the rebels?"
But on the surface, Bai Xiaowen still showed excitement and excitement:
"I'm willing to join the Ursoc Resistance. I've wanted to kick the butts of those Imperial dogs for a long time!"
Ralph nodded with satisfaction: "Don't worry, brother. As long as you prove that you are a warrior, I will definitely take you with me when I return to Pointed Helm City."
"How should I prove it?" Bai Xiaowen couldn't wait.
Ralph and Lorgar looked at each other.
"Brother, there is a small stronghold of the Imperial Dog in the mountains fifteen miles northwest of Elu City. As long as you bring a nameplate of the Imperial Dog, we will recognize you as a brave warrior."
…
In the cold wind, Bai Xiaowen left the "Wild Mare" tavern and walked northwest of Elu City.
While walking, Bai Xiaowen called out the task panel and checked the newly added tasks.
"Side mission: submit a certificate of name."
"Mission goal: kill an Imperial soldier, bring back his nameplate, and give it to the resistance warrior Ralph."
"Task reward: unknown."
"Mission period: 48 hours."
"Mission Difficulty: C+."
Bai Xiaowen closed the task panel.
"If you want to do it, do something big! This mission must be successfully completed and Ralph can be trusted, so that he can further participate in the main line of struggle in the north and meet the high-level leaders of the northern resistance forces as soon as possible."
Bai Xiaowen's choice of the rebel camp was a carefully considered decision, mainly for two reasons.
On the one hand, the Imperial Army camp cannot tolerate him.
Everything Bai Xiaowen did was to complete the job transfer mission: the Black Soul Stone. The North County Monastery and the Royal Knights were all forces on the empire's side. Wouldn't he be seeking death by joining the imperial army?
On the other hand, the resistance should be more friendly to potential newcomers.
Think about it, in the northern border, the resistance army can still compete with the imperial army. But looking at the entire continent of Aaron, it belongs to the empire. Joining the resistance army means fighting against the behemoth Lionheart Empire! Lionheart
The empire's human and material influence is almost ten times that of the northern resistance.
With such a small capital, the leader of the resistance must act like he is eager for talents. No matter the threshold for joining or the speed of promotion, they are not comparable to the aging and rigid empire.
The leader of the resistance army, Ursok, is also a lord after all, and he should have people under his command who can break the seal of the soul stone. As long as he has achieved a certain status in the resistance army, then there will be some clues to the job transfer mission.
The only difficulty is the time limit.
The job transfer task must be completed within 10 days, which means that Bai Xiaowen cannot obtain promotion through ordinary means. He must enter the sight of the high-ranking rebels as soon as possible.
"There are actually so few people in this small stronghold."
An hour later, Bai Xiaowen took the No. 11 bus to the mountain col that Ralph mentioned and saw a small group of imperial soldiers, a total of 4 people.
Bai Xiaowen thought about it. In the European wars in the Middle Ages, the number of soldiers participating in the war was indeed not large. A battle of a few dozen people was considered a small scale, and a battle of hundreds of people was a local war. In a full-scale war between two territories, the total number of soldiers participating in the war on both sides was
It doesn’t have to be over a thousand.
Among the four imperial soldiers in front of me, three of them were wearing linen clothes and were relatively thin. They had been busy feeding horses and chopping firewood. They were obviously auxiliary soldiers. The other one was much stronger, wearing thin chain armor and sitting on the ground.
Resting in the tent - he should be the leader of the team, a regular soldier.
Bai Xiaowen used insight to observe the strength of these people.
The total attributes of the three auxiliary soldiers are around 15 points, and their combat effectiveness is roughly the same as that of the bard in the tavern. They should be farmers who have recently put down their hoes.
Bai Xiaowen mainly looked at the attributes of the thin chain armor leader.
Skill 1: Heavy hit: Raise the war hammer with both hands to hit the enemy hard, with an additional 150% weapon damage.
Skill 2: Intimidation: Intimidate the enemy. The enemy must pass a will test, otherwise it will turn around and run away for 3 seconds.
Bai Xiaowen frowned. Not to mention that his combat effectiveness was only equivalent to that of an auxiliary soldier. Even if he had the strength of a normal quasi-awakened person, it would be a disaster if he rushed forward rashly. If Bjorn failed to pass the will test with just a threat,
He was about to be beaten to death by three auxiliary soldiers.
Bai Xiaowen thought for a while, turned around and quietly left the observation point, and found a river nearby. Between the mountain col and the river where the camp was located, Bai Xiaowen hid among the branches of a big tree, waiting quietly.
About two hours later, when Bai Xiaowen's legs started to feel numb, the camp finally saw the changes that Bai Xiaowen wanted to see.
An auxiliary soldier carrying a water bag staggered toward the river.
