Chapter 65: The First Meeting of the Sergeant
When I walked to the front door, two little soldiers jumped out from the side of the door again. Just as they were about to shout, they found that it was me, so they smiled at me and opened the two closed doors together.
I bowed to the two of them with gratitude, then walked into the open door and entered a maze-like palace. I knew... the battle was about to begin.
The guards inside the door were very tight. As soon as I entered the door, I found two rows of soldiers standing on both sides, leaving a path in the middle for me to pass through. At the other end of the path, a tall and strong man stood there. I guess... that might be the commander.
I walked over without fear and ignored the thoughts on both sides, although I knew that as soon as they took action, I would be determined.
The sergeant's eyes showed an admiring look, and then in an instant, his eyes became very sharp again, staring at me tightly because he knew that I was here to challenge him.
I smiled, stood two meters in front of the sergeant, and said relaxedly: "If I guess correctly, you should be the sergeant, that is to say... you are my next opponent, right?"
The sergeant finally stopped his inquiring eyes, looked at me, and said seriously: "I heard the two fools outside say yesterday that since you want to obtain the imperial suit, then as a guard, I will of course fight with you as a guard. As long as I defeat me, you can get the imperial ring I guard."
kindness?
I asked for kindness in confusion and asked, "This... I heard from the two brothers outside that I have to defeat the team leader, the captain, etc.? How can I just defeat one?"
The sergeant scratched his head embarrassedly and said awkwardly: "That's right. At your level, it would not have been possible to cause any harm to us. However, through your performance yesterday, we found that we had not yet figured out your strength, so all the officers above me went to the next level. As long as you defeat me, you can get the first level of treasure."
I said in confusion: "Is it possible? Didn't there be any guards on other levels?"
The sergeant nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, we can only guard one floor, because the first floor is closest to the ground, the most comfortable, and the more we go down, the more gloomy we are gathered on the first floor. This time, because of you, we chose different layers of guards according to our strength level."
I became even more confused and couldn't help asking: "You are probably not the truth. If you don't say anything else, as long as you are twice as strong as the soldier yesterday, I will not be able to defeat it, because in that case, my attack will not break the defense at all."
The sergeant showed an admiring expression and praised: "We did not read you wrongly. You are very smart. I will tell you the truth. The reason why we met you all without being on the first floor is because of your intelligence. We have seen your battle yesterday. We know that if you are given enough time, you will grow up quickly."
The sergeant raised his head, looked at the top of the cave sadly, and said in dismay: "We have been guarding here for countless years. During this period, only two people have been here, namely your sword spirit, and a very beautiful woman."
The chief sergeant who was trapped in memory continued, "It's a pity... we were all enjoying the happiness at the first level. When we saw a newcomer coming, we couldn't help but want to go up and take action. We were so depressed."
The sergeant sighed and continued, "Those two people are very powerful, at least ten thousand times better than you now, but... in the end they were defeated by our marshal after defeating the general. No one has ever come again for thousands of years.
The sergeant looked at the short sword in my hand with a sad expression and said sadly: "That woman is so amazing that she killed our general dozens of times, and all the equipment on her body was blown up, which is the clothes you are wearing in the sword spirit."
I don’t know what I remembered, the sergeant looked painful and said in pain: “After that woman defeated the general, she was domineering and now she would compete with our marshal. But... how could she know the difference between the marshal and the general? That is incomparable. The marshal’s strength is at least one hundred times stronger than the general.”
Why……
The sergeant sighed and said regretfully: "In view of the woman's greed and viciousness, our marshal took ruthless measures to destroy her body, and sealed her into a staff and handed it to the giant who came with her. From then on, we have never seen them again until you appear."
Shaking his head, the sergeant continued, "Afterward, our marshal regretted it, so he voluntarily resigned from his post. He hid alone and disappeared. The current marshal was the former general. "
The sergeant suddenly raised his head and looked at me and said, "Our general is afraid of making the marshal's mistake again, so he came up with such a solution. If you can really defeat us smoothly, we will allow you to take away the imperial suit."
After hearing the sergeant's words, I was really excited and said happily: "Are you saying true? So... the difficulties I encountered will be less than half."
Speaking of this, I suddenly looked dark and asked, "But... But what should you do if I take away the imperial suit? How should you survive if you lose the things you protect?"
The sergeant smiled mysteriously and whispered: "Whoever has been guarding for tens of thousands of years or even hundreds of thousands of years will be tired. We also want to dissolve into this world and have more contact with people outside. You don't know, we are too bored."
I looked at the commander in surprise. I didn't expect that they could leave this cave and integrate into our lives. In this way, I can't...
Thinking of this, I jumped up happily, leaned into his ear and said, "If you want to go out for activities, then I can provide you with everything you need. I can be your spokesperson and help you integrate into this world. How about it? Do you want to think about it?"
The sergeant's eyes lit up, but he immediately thought of something and replied in a low voice: "Haha... I am indeed a quick talk. I long for your conditions, but I have to wait until I discuss with you before deciding. After all, this is not my own business."
Hearing that he did not refuse, I immediately climbed up the pole and continued, "So that, you will continue to discuss, and I will continue to challenge. I believe that when my challenge is over, you will probably have a discussion and come up with the result. What do you think?"
The sergeant agreed to my request happily, took out a big axe from behind, and said majestic: "Since that's the case, you should show your strength first. People without strength will not convince us."
Looking at the little soldiers around me, I suddenly thought of an important question, waved my hand to stop the sergeant's offensive, and asked, "By the way, how many people do you have here now?"
The sergeant smiled dryly, stretched out his fingers, and I shouted in surprise: "There are 20 million?"
The sergeant shook his head with a wry smile. I was also a little surprised and continued to guess: "There are two million?"
The sergeant shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Do you think we are the army, we are just the emperor's personal soldiers, how could there be so many?"
I thought about it for a while and thought it made sense, and said thoughtfully: "Yeah... it makes sense, 200,000 is not much."
Unexpectedly, the sergeant continued my words: "It's not 200,000, even 20,000 are wrong. We only have 200 people. Otherwise, why do you think I am the only one guarding the first floor?"
200!
I looked at him in disbelief, and I was really confused about the numbers he gave.
The sergeant saw me in surprise and comforted him: "Don't underestimate us. Although we only have 200 people, we are all senior generals. As for the small soldiers, there are only ten, that is, two outside the door and eight in front of you."
Damn...I was surprised. What does this mean? There are more officials than soldiers?
The sergeant smiled dryly and said mysteriously: "I secretly tell you that I will be the captain of the team after that. The captain of the team will be promoted, so as long as you defeat me and then defeat the captain of the second floor, you will get the emperor ring and the emperor bracelet. I believe it will be of great help to you."
After hearing what he said, I immediately became excited, tightened the short sword in my hand and said heroically: "What are you waiting for? Come on... Let me see your strength as the sergeant."
Boom!
The sergeant slashed the giant axe to the ground, making a shocking sound, and shouted: "Happy... It's really good. Since that's the case, then you can do it, I won't take action first."
Seeing that the other party underestimated me so much, I waved the short sword in my hand and rushed towards the commander quickly. I wanted to see if he was really qualified to be arrogant...
