Li Huailin followed the group of soldiers through the city for a while and observed the situation of the city. First of all, the city looked no different from other cities in the game. Everything was there. Li Huailin even saw Blacksmith Shops and Equipment Shops. The people in the city were all Humans. Li Huailin didn't see people of other races. At first glance, there didn't seem to be anything special.
Of course, Li Huailin and the others also saw that some parts of the city were undergoing construction. Seeing the expressions on their faces, the soldier in front of them explained, "This is the destruction caused by the Demonic Dragon's invasion. This was originally a peaceful city. If it wasn't for this disaster, everyone would be able to live happily here. So if the hero can really defeat the Demonic Dragon, it would be great."
"Gua!" Frogsauce patted his chest as if saying that it was his duty. However, Li Huailin didn't understand what he meant. To Li Huailin's surprise, the soldier actually nodded and replied, "Then we'll depend on you, Sir Hero."
"Huh?" Li Huailin looked at the soldier. He didn't know if the soldier really understood what Frogsauce meant. After thinking for a moment, Li Huailin didn't ask directly.
In short, the group quickly arrived at the entrance of the castle in the middle of the city. This place was similar to the inner city of Blessed City. It had a layer of wall, but Li Huailin noticed that the wall here was also damaged. Now, a large number of soldiers and workers were repairing it. Seeing Li Huailin's group, the soldier who led the way came up to ask about it. Of course, it was the soldier who led the way who went up to reply. Soon, both sides handed over their tasks, and the soldier who led the way returned to guard the gate, while the soldier who stood guard continued to guide Li Huailin's group.
This time, they walked directly into the castle. When they arrived at the square in front of the castle, Li Huailin saw that there were actually quite a lot of people here. After taking a closer look, Li Huailin noticed that these people were dressed like warriors. They were in groups of three to five. It looked like … they were here to accept a quest to defeat the Mystic Dragon. Of course, as mentioned before, the king's order was for the whole country, so it didn't seem to be a problem for more people to come. However, Li Huailin didn't expect that there would be other competitors.
Speaking of competition, Li Huailin hurriedly scanned the crowd. Of course, he was looking for Pena and Lorez. However, after scanning the crowd, Li Huailin didn't see any signs of Pena and Lorez. After thinking about it, the two of them had just escaped from him, so they probably wouldn't come back at this time.
"Wait here for a while, His Majesty the King will come out soon," the soldier who led the way said to Li Huailin's group and left immediately.
Li Huailin's group could only wait. Of course, at this moment, a lot of people's gazes were focused on Li Huailin's group. Seeing everyone's gazes, Li Huailin felt a slight headache.
"Do you think we can get past this?" Li Huailin asked as he looked at Frogboy.
"Normally … we can't get past this." Jade Emperor held his forehead. "But after all, this king is only looking for a hero to kill the Mystic Dragon. I don't think he would mind what this hero looks like."
"But it's fine if he's ugly, but he's a chicken …" Li Huailin couldn't help but say.
"Stop talking. Do you think I have a solution?" Jade Emperor said. "Now, we can only bite the bullet and observe the situation. Oh right, didn't you make an appointment with that guy called Bryans? It's already over. "
"There's nothing we can do about it. We can only stand him up first," Li Huailin said. "I also want it to end quickly, but there's no need to take the risk."
"If that's the case, then do the quest with peace of mind. There's no need to be too anxious," Jade Emperor nodded.
The two waited for a while, and during this period, there was a slight conflict. Of course, it wasn't Li Huailin's group. The main reason was that two squads had an argument, and the two sides started fighting. The conflict wasn't very intense, because both sides were fighting in an ugly manner. Yes, both sides were too weak. The two Swordsmen weren't fighting with swords at all. Instead, they were rolling on the ground. Li Huailin shook his head as he thought about it carefully. These guys were probably here to make up the numbers. He couldn't really let them snatch the Boss away.
Fortunately, soon, a soldier came to report that the King was about to come out. After all, they had to give the King some face. The two squads that were still fighting stopped for a moment, and they looked at each other with displeasure.
Soon, the guards of honor on both sides of the stage opened up, and a middle-aged man appeared in front of Li Huailin's group. Yes, this man was clearly the King of the Kingdom. To be honest, there wasn't anything special about him. He was just a short and chubby fellow, and he didn't have the demeanor of a King at all. On the contrary, he seemed quite amiable. Li Huailin looked at the man's name. It was Aison Tolde.
"Your Majesty." "Your Majesty." Seeing King Tolde appear, the Warriors all saluted him. Of course, they didn't kneel down. They weren't the King's Knights, nor were they the King's subjects. Most of the people here were mercenaries, wandering Swordsmen, and the like. They only had to bow to show respect.
"Dispense with the formalities," King Tolde immediately said. King Tolde immediately said, "It is my honor that everyone came here to help me. However, the situation is quite urgent, so I don't have time to properly entertain everyone. My daughter has been captured by that hateful Demon Dragon for two days and two nights, and I don't even know if she's dead or alive. I hope that everyone can lend me a hand."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. We will definitely rescue the Princess," a Warrior at the front said.
"Thank you for your help, everyone. However, there are some things that I have to tell you. The Demonic Dragon is really powerful. Our kingdom's strongest warrior, Suramos, fought against the Demonic Dragon, but he couldn't hurt it at all," Tolde said.
"What? Even Lord Suramos couldn't hurt it? " It sounded like Suramos was indeed a famous Warrior. At least, many of the people present had heard of him. Therefore, when they heard Tolde's words, many of them revealed worried expressions.
"Yes, the Demon Dragon is very powerful. According to the prophecy, only a true Brave can wield the Holy Sword, defeat the Demon Dragon, and rescue the Princess. However, the prophecy didn't leave any clues as to who the Brave is. That's why I sent out a summons to the entire country. Is there anyone here who is a true Brave? "Tolde asked.
After Tolde finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought. Yes, they didn't know if they were true Brave. Did the Brave have any special characteristics? Or would they know? Didn't they say that they had a Holy Sword? But they didn't have a Holy Sword. While everyone was lost in thought, a crisp cry suddenly came from the crowd.
"Squawk!" Everyone turned around and saw a chicken raise its hand (wing). Beside it, Li Huailin and the Jade Emperor held their foreheads.
"What? The Brave in the prophecy is here? " Tolde looked very happy. He walked down from the stage and excitedly walked towards Li Huailin and the others. "Quick, let me see the Brave …"
"What should we do?" the Jade Emperor asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry. If it really doesn't work, I'll just slap this king until he becomes an idiot," Li Huailin replied.
"…" The Jade Emperor felt a headache coming. He almost forgot that his team was an army of problematic children.
By this time, King Tolde had already walked in front of Li Huailin and the others. The moment he saw Frogmeat, the smile on Tolde's face disappeared. He stood there in a daze for five seconds.
"Did you see that? He held his breath for another five seconds," Li Huailin said.
"I saw it. Can you stop emphasizing it?" The Jade Emperor held his forehead.
"It's fine. I'm ready to help him 'fix himself,'" Li Huailin said as he rolled up his sleeves.
"So this is the legendary Brave?" At this time, King Tolde suddenly said, "He is indeed a brave and extraordinary Warrior. I was momentarily dazed …"
"What?" Li Huailin and the Jade Emperor raised their heads at the same time.
The Jade Emperor couldn't help but say, "No, big brother. Which eye of yours saw a brave and extraordinary Warrior? No matter how you look at him, he's just a chicken," the Jade Emperor couldn't help but say.
"Hey, hey, if you say he's a chicken, he won't say it …" Li Huailin said.
"Is that what you want to complain about? Hey, is what this guy sees different from what we see? What the hell is Frogmeat Sauce in his eyes? "the Jade Emperor roared.
"Calm down. Calm down." Li Huailin said. "Although I don't know what's going on, I don't need to fix himself anymore …"
"Croak!" When Frogmeat heard the Jade Emperor's praise, he raised his head and puffed out his chest, continuing to act cool. Of course, the people around him were also whispering.
"I didn't expect that the legendary Brave would actually appear. This guy looks different from us."
"Yeah. He clearly looks like a chicken, but he has an indescribable aura of bravery …"
"Valiant spirit my ass." The Jade Emperor couldn't help but roar after hearing the people around him. "No, you guys are also looking at a chicken. What's with this acceptance? Isn't it a bit too strong?"
"Summon, summon, calm down …" Li Huailin said. "Look, I want to complain too, but I'm still holding it in …"
"In any case, since a true Hero has appeared, my daughter can be saved," King Tolde continued.
