Lord of Arcane

Chapter 52 Captain Gibb
Shado was thinking about the role of this figure, and suddenly bumped into the person in front of him - it was Dean.

"Xia Duo, what are you looking at so carefully? Isn't it just a badge with a [Secret Mark]! Let's hurry up and find our team!"

"This is the [Secret Mark]?"

"Yeah! What's the matter?" Dean doesn't know why, isn't it obvious, what else can it be except [Secret Mark]!
"Nothing! Let's go!"

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

This is completely beyond his knowledge of 0-level spells, and there must be more complicated principles in it.

It's just that there is no need to tell Dean. Since the other party already thinks it is [Secret Mark], why does he want to be different?Just know it yourself.

Putting away the badges and speeding up the pace, the two soon followed the other apprentices to the No. 2 training ground. Along the way, they saw more and more soldiers and more and more dense.

When we arrived at the No. 2 training ground, we saw a large number of soldiers waiting in formation.

The apprentices who came early have been assigned to their own combat teams and are heading to the camp with the team!
No one had to pick one. A man who looked like an officer held a long sword and stared at the apprentices coldly, shouting from time to time, "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo has a little more understanding of the apprentice's status. The apprentice's status as a whole is quite high, but as an individual, it is not necessarily.

At least the officer could not care what the apprentice thought, or even offend the future mages.

Thinking like this, Xia Duo became more and more cautious. The first time he saw his combat team, he took the initiative to say hello, "I'm Xia Duo, and I was ordered to join your team. Please take care of you in the future."

Xia Duo's words seemed ordinary to him, but in the eyes of these ordinary soldiers, they were almost humble. The squad leader Jibu thought that the people who came here might look above the top and be bossy, but he didn't expect Xia Duo to talk so well.

Gibb had a good impression of Shado, who was originally thinking of trying to fight for the command, but the words he said became—

"Welcome to join. The cleaning task is still based on the opinions of Master Xiaduo. 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 there was no contempt for the other team members.

Xia Duo nodded and said, "Then let's go on, we—"

"Next, let's go to the quartermaster's office to collect combat supplies."

With that said, Jibu led Shado to the quarters, and the rest of the team followed behind.Along the way, Gibb introduces Shado to the rest of the team.

The two taciturn and strong men, brothers Jerry and Jesse, who, like Captain Gibb, were soldiers from the original territory, were recruited to form a new team this time.

As for the other seven people, four were villagers from outside the town. In order to allow their family members to enter the protection area of ​​the Mage Tower, they voluntarily chose to join.

The remaining three were recruited from the territorial adventurers, and are still dressed as adventurers, while Shado noticed a man with a thin body and erratic eyes.

When Gibb introduced him, he only said one sentence. He was trained as a professional wanderer, and his name was Aiwa, but Shado always felt that this person had a familiar taste.

Of course, it's not accurate to call it taste, there is no smell on Aiwa's body, it's just a feeling that makes Xado feel as if he's seen him somewhere.

When talking to Jibu, Xia Duo glanced at Aiwa from the corner of his eye from time to time, but Aiwa seemed to be very sensitive to other people's eyes. Every time Xia Duo looked at him, he would block Xia Duo's sight with someone else's body. .

This made Shado even more curious.

"Captain Jibb, do you understand the area we are cleaning this time?"

"I understand, I have to say, Master Xado, you have picked a good location. Most of this area is a few trees, there are few dense bushes, and there are very few places for the orcs to hide. We just need to be careful. , it is unlikely to be raided by orcs."

It can be heard that Captain Gibb is quite satisfied with performing tasks in this area.

"Have you ever seen an orc, Captain Jibu?" Shado asked again.

"I've seen it! And I killed one myself!" When it came to this, Captain Gibb's mood was a little low.

Xia Duo could also hear it, but it was only a matter of his own life, so he had to keep asking, "Can you talk about it?"

"Of course! They must also want me to tell everyone about this!" Jibu suddenly regained his energy and said slowly, "Just last year, my captain at the time took our team to the Green Pearl Forest to clean up the goblins. Thinking of three orcs rushing out from the depths of the goblin camp."

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

As expected, Jibu said in a low voice, "The three orcs just rushed out and killed two of my companions, and then the remaining eight of us also paid a heavy price to kill them."

Hearing this, Xia Duo couldn't help but say, "Are Orcs really that strong?"

There are many legends about orcs in the territory, all of which are full of adjectives such as savage, ferocious, powerful, and evil.

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

"Look, this was cut by the orcs. At that time, our team of 5 people went out to hunt goblins, and we encountered the orcs. Just one orc cost us three people. The wound on my body was cut by the orcs before they died. If I wasn't dragged back to the temple by my companions, I would have died a long time ago!"

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

Of course, Shado will not underestimate it, and it 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 the book.

"I heard that orcs are not very intelligent, is that true?"

"It's true, but it's only compared to humans." Captain Gibb took over and continued to introduce, "Orcs have tribes, families, and even beliefs, but they are easily provoked and give people a sense of It feels like a beast."

Next, Captain Gibb told Xia Duo some real cases he knew, and of course, to the four new team members who had just bid farewell to their status as farmers.

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

Soon, the quarters arrived.
