346 Chapter 346 The Young Man Descending from the Sky
In the eastern district of the outer city of Lister.
In a courtyard, a group of people who looked like mercenaries were sitting around several bonfires, on which there were barbecues.
"Captain, I heard that the superior is going to transfer you to the main city. Is that true?"
After taking a sip of wine, a tall and thin man finally couldn't help his curiosity and asked the middle-aged man beside him in a low voice.
The middle-aged man was tall and sturdy, and there was a long scar on his left face.
The other team members on the side of the bonfire also raised their heads and looked at their captain.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the captain put down the bowl, nodded helplessly, and said, "The superior has the plan to transfer me to the main city."
Hearing this, everyone could not help but look at him with admiration. The main city was a place everyone yearned for now.
In addition to admiration, they were also sincerely happy for their captain. After all, the captain had pulled them back from the death line several times.
The tall and thin man picked up the bowl and said, "Congratulations, Captain!"
"Congratulations, Captain!" The others also raised their glasses.
"I won't forget you!" Looking at the familiar faces, the captain's eyes gradually became moist. He held the wine bottle and drank it up. Seeing that everyone had finished drinking, he patted the man beside him and said, "I'll leave everyone to you from now on."
The tall and thin man nodded and said firmly, "Don't worry, Captain. I will protect everyone well."
"Forget it. Let's drink!"
"Yes, let's drink!"
Soon, the crowd fell into laughter again.
"Fortunately, our regiment commander decisively moved the whole Moore Mercenary here." Someone sighed.
The others nodded in agreement. At the same time, a trace of pride appeared on their faces.
Now, the Moore Mercenary was well-known in the Grimm Kingdom. What made other mercenary teams more envious was that the headquarters of the Moore Mercenary was located in Lister's main city. Moreover, the headquarters was located in the core area of the main city, covering a huge area.
The area of the main city is limited, basically, one force had one position, and there was no spare. Even if the big forces in King City came, they could only be stationed in the outer city honestly.
It was naturally a great honor for the Moore Mercenary to have such a position in the main city.
"You know, an earl's son once poured wine for me in person after knowing that I was a member of the Moore Mercenary, and asked me how to get a job in the Moore Mercenary."
"Yours was insignificant. Last time..."
Speaking of this, everyone was even more excited. They talked about the glorious deeds of the Moore Mercenary one after another.
Just as the atmosphere reached its peak, a girl was sleepy-eyed from drink. She rubbed her eyes and said to the woman beside her, "Lisa, I seem to see a meteor coming toward us."
The woman called "Lisa" laughed. The girl just drank a little, but she got drunk, "What are you talking about? How could it be possible? Oh my god!"
While she was talking, the woman's face froze.
The next moment, she saw a fireball smashed from the tower in the distance, directly hitting their distant goods.
Boom!
Under the violent shock wave, everyone sobered up in an instant.
"Enemy attack!"
The captain was the first to react. He roared, and the level-4 magic energy surged in front of him, magic had been condensed in the blink of an eye. The other team members also took out their weapons to defend.
"Ahem~"
The dust soon dissipated, and there was a sound of cough from the hole, "Artemis, I will remember this grievance."
"It hurts!"
A young man with disheveled hair and a dirty face got up from the pit. The young man's clothes were tattered, and his face was black and blue. It was obvious that he had been beaten hard.
Why did this person look a little familiar?
No matter what, this man had destroyed the city's building. He must be captured and handed over to the castellan!
The captain condensed shackle magic and threw it at the young man, "Capture him first!"
The young man patted the dust on his body and felt that magic was coming at him. He frowned slightly and raised his hand to fan toward the magic.
Bang!
In the shocked eyes of everyone, the powerful magic in their eyes was fanned away in this way!
That's right. It was fanned away casually.
The captain swallowed and said in a trembling voice, "Sir, this is the territory managed by Castellan Pierce. Do you know the consequences of causing trouble here?"
Judging from the blow just now, he was sure that he would definitely not be the match for the person in front of him!
"Pierce?"
Locke was slightly stunned, and then he couldn't help laughing. On the way, Athena told him about Lister's recent development.
Now, the central city had not changed significantly compared with four months ago. Exquisite buildings were lined up in a row and the city was full of flavor. Compared to the central city, the outer city had undergone a tremendous change.
Countless tall buildings rose from the ground. Due to the rapid development, to make it convenient for management, the outer city had been divided into four districts, which were the eastern district, the western district, the northern district, and the southern district. Each district had a special castellan in charge of management.
The most special one was, of course, the western district. The castellan in the western district was Badal. However, the western part was the Ape Mountain, and the previous black iron mine had been mined almost, so there were no other residents. There were only three residents in the western district, including Castellan Badal, the flame bird, and the ice wolf king.
Three days ago, after leaving the land of legacy, he handed over the tree of life to the elf queen. Although the elf queen had invited them to visit the elf race many times, considering that the deadline for the second stage task was approaching, Locke planned to return to his territory as soon as possible, so he declined politely.
As for why he fell from the sky, all of this should be attributed to Artemis.
When they were about to reach the territory, Artemis mentioned the matters between him and Irene.
He had racked his brains all the way, sending gemstones and cooking delicious food. Athena, who had been in a good mood because of his flattery, suddenly said that she wanted to test his strength. Therefore, after beating him wildly for half an hour, he was directly beaten down from the sky.
"Your castellan of the eastern district is coming." Locke chuckled and his eyes skipped the captain and others, and then looked at the shaky tower in the distance.
On the tower, a lonely figure stood there, with a long sword hanging in the air and vibrating slightly.
