After two days of traveling together, Gus and the three of them entered Sawyer City directly.

Soya City, like Ika City, is a small city. However, the city gate of Soya City is very thick and has no patina. It should be taken care of regularly. The guards stationed at the city gate stood in a row in high spirits. Looking at the flow of people coming and going, I don't know how much better it is compared to Yika City.

I heard that there are troops stationed outside Soya City, which can be regarded as the garrison point of the Massa Empire. If there is a rebellion in the Massa Empire, these troops can quickly rush to the front line.

It's just that in recent years, the Massa Empire's wars have been concentrated on the border, while the empire has entered a fairly stable governance, so this army seems to have been forgotten, and there is no arrangement except for the distribution of supplies on time every year.

The three of them led the horses into the city one after another. They traveled in a hurry for two days. The three of them didn't eat anything. Gus was fine, but Bieber and Bei Linya looked a little weak.

"Gus, fill your stomach."

Bieber pulled the wind horse, rubbed his belly and said weakly. Just three days after escaping from Ignatz, Bieber could already clearly see that he had lost a lot of weight. His whole body seemed to have been shaved off.

Bei Linya didn't speak. In the past two days, his prejudice against Gus has been completely eliminated. He would chat with Gus from time to time. There was no longer the smell of gunpowder in the past. Bei Linya, who was originally hot-tempered, seemed to have changed his temper. In the past two days, Bei Linya had a change of temper. very quiet.

Gus looked around and saw that it was already noon. The taverns on both sides were doing a very prosperous business, with more people coming and going than in Yika City.

"Just there."

Bieber followed Gus's hand and found a small tavern at the end of the road. People came and went, but few people turned in. The business was a bit bleak, but it was similar to Jebeldan Bieber's tavern.

Bieber naturally doesn't care about these details. Now as long as he has something to fill his stomach, the requirements are very low. Moreover, this pub looks friendly.

Bei Linya hesitated slightly, but did not object and followed Bieber.

The tavern is indeed not big, there is only one wine table full of people.

Ten guards in armor were sitting there, with long swords hanging on them, and the armor on their bodies was polished to a crisp, but they were all drinking wine, and their dejected looks were inconsistent with their image, so as soon as they entered the door, Gus Notice them.

Bieber casually ordered a few glasses of wine, ordered a few large portions of purple corn pancakes, and lay on the table boredly waiting for the store to prepare them.

The tavern was very simple, and according to Gus' observation, there were no prostitutes or other miscellaneous things. Without these things, Gus felt that the guards were a little different.

As soldiers of the empire and city guards, they should not have such good military literacy. Without military regulations and military sanctions, and without the oppression of war, soldiers will always become lazy and weak.

Bieber raised his eyes and looked at Gus and asked, "Gus, what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing, I'm going to sit there."

After saying that, he walked to the soldiers' table with a witching staff in hand.

"Can we have a drink together?"

When Gus walked over, he had already attracted the attention of the guards. He was wearing a witch robe and a witch staff in his hand. Gus' identity was obvious, but the guards did not answer. There are many charlatans these days, especially fake wizards. , there are so many.

However, the guards still squeezed out a vacancy. After all, wizards were too rare, so they had to be cautious.

The guards looked at Gus and the young "wizard." Gus was tall and handsome, with a noble aura about him that really didn't look like something a fake liar could produce.

A guard reached out and poured a glass of ale for Gus and placed it in front of Gus. The guard was very polite and gestured, "Please?"

The voice was very soft, without the rough and arrogant voice of a soldier. Gus couldn't help but take another look at him. He was white and clean. Maybe the armor was too big, so he looked a little bloated, but the armor and sword on his body were better than those of his peers. A little brighter.

"My name is Deaton, are you a wizard?" Gus looked embarrassed, Deaton scratched his cheek and asked in a low voice.

Wizards are rare. Deaton was a little excited to see a wizard this time, but he was more cautious. The rumored wizards were withdrawn and had various little quirks. Deaton had even heard of some wizards. Like boyish body...

The other nine people also put down their wine glasses, and the already quiet environment became even quieter.

"Gus, come and eat some pie."

The brief silence was broken by Bieber's loud voice. Gus turned around and took the purple corn pancake brought by Bei Linya, tore off a piece and put it in his mouth, filling his mouth with the aroma of malt.

"Yes."

"Really?"

Deaton was startled and a little at a loss. The two guards beside Gus also sat up straight. Their shining armors set off their extraordinary momentum. The previous frustration was swept away. This is a wizard. Ordinary people spend their entire lives. An existence that he may not necessarily see is actually eating pancakes next to him.

Deaton's clean face showed desire, his eyes widened and he said to Gus: "Master Wizard, can you cast a witchcraft?"

The owner of the tavern also turned around and looked at this place with interest. Whether he was a real wizard or not could be seen through with a simple witchcraft.

It is a rare thing to see the legendary wizard in a cheap tavern. On weekdays, the tavern seems a bit deserted because there are no relaxation programs. Swordsmen and wizards will not enter this tavern.

But precisely because of this, the army outside Soya City has clearly stipulated that all soldiers in the army can only come here to drink, and only for drinking.

"puff"

A small flame in Gus' hand was beating, as if it had life, jumping over the guards' shoulders one after another, and finally dissipated on Deaton's face, and the warm breath infected everyone.

"I want to ask you something."

"Hey, tell me."

Gus took out the yellow paper given by the one-legged uncle from his arms, flattened it and handed it to Deaton, "There is only one icon on this paper. I looked at it and it seemed to be the logo of the army, but I don't know the specific name. , never seen before.”

On the yellow paper, the witch wand and the long sword were intertwined, and three irregular drops of blood dripped on the blade. They were wrapped in sacred brilliance. It was very simple, but it also revealed something extraordinary. Gus showed Bieber this symbol. Yes, but Bieber made it clear that he didn't know because none of the three major legions had ever used this icon.

Because the imperial army no longer allows witchcraft staffs to appear, which was a rule hundreds of years ago.

Deaton took it and looked at the logo on the yellow paper. His expression kept changing, and his fair face turned red. Deaton swallowed hard, but the next moment he raised his head warily, "This is... ·Apocalypse Legion, you, who are you?"

The remaining nine people's hands were already on the hilts of their swords, their eyes revealed a fierce look, and they looked at Gus with eager eyes. They completely lost their previous weeping expression, and their fighting spirit was surging.
