On the first day away from Roce, he missed them.
Inside the carriage, Luo Ya was lying on a soft bed, looking at the stars in the sky like a lonely old man.
When they left Roce, Xia Luote specially modified a luxurious carriage for Luo Ya. The exquisite exterior decoration of the carriage was greatly simplified to fit the appearance of a caravan, but a lot of effort was put into the interior. The ceiling was also transformed into an adjustable skylight that allowed one to see the night sky.
In addition to being afraid that Luo Ya would be bored, Miss Xia had other plans. For example, she hoped that the beautiful starry sky would remind Luo Ya of the night they spent together in the Warren Mountains, thus strengthening his longing for her.
In fact, when Xia Luote saw Luo Ya send Ai Lisi away, she was relieved. But even so, Xia Luote could not stop Luo Ya from thinking about his sister, especially when he was traveling alone at night. Another function of the skylight was to divert Luo Ya's attention.
However, it turned out that the effect was limited.
It had to be said that although the days in Roce City were noisy, Luo Ya actually enjoyed it very much. After all, he ate well and lived well. When he was free, he could be Xia Luote's model and wear new clothes. Most importantly, Nuo Aier and Ka Diya, who were rarely seen, had returned. Although the atmosphere when everyone gathered together was not very harmonious, it was good for Luo Ya.
It was always difficult to part after meeting, let alone leaving the noisy city and coming to the wilderness.
At this time, it had been a few hours since they left Roce City. Under the cover of the night, Luo Ya and the others traveled all the way until midnight. According to the habits of caravans, no matter how hurried they were, they should rest at midnight. After all, the wilderness late at night was too dangerous. Not only was it good for bandits, many nocturnal monsters would also start to move during this time.
Mr. Luo Ya, who disguised himself as a merchant, naturally did not want to cause more trouble. The caravan stopped at a shelter by the official road to rest. Luo Ya looked at the cloaked figure outside the carriage door and could not help but speak.
"Cynthia, you don't have to stay here. There shouldn't be any danger tonight."
"But my lord …"
"It doesn't matter. The public security on the Rosetta road is pretty good, and it's not far from the city. Don't forget, I'm not completely helpless."
"I see. I've offended you, Lord Holy Son."
The brown-haired woman nodded slightly upon hearing Luo Ya's words. She couldn't help but feel grateful and respectful.
When the Iron Wall Army learned that Luo Ya was the Holy Son who was protected by the Gods, their first reaction was actually suspicion. But after more than ten high-level representatives met Luo Ya under the leadership of Cynthia, this suspicion disappeared.
Luo Ya did not let Pei Tela bless them. After all, blessings were like rewards. Luo Ya chose to show his strength in a crowded place. So in the courtyard of the Hundred Birds Hall, the Hydra Staff used [Body of Rebirth] for the first time in Luo Ya's peak state. Together with Pei Tela's power, it turned into a ten-meter-long Rock Python.
Facing the God's body that emitted golden light and pressure, the high-level members of the Iron Wall Army almost did not dare to look directly at it. They could only crawl down and kowtow. According to Pei Tela, this seemed to be a normal phenomenon. Only Cynthia, who was the highest Source Level, could barely withstand this pressure.
"Wait, what about me?"
"How can you be the same as them?"
Pei Tela's words carried a motherly love, which made Luo Ya blush a little. He felt helpless.
Luo Ya was only the Holy Son in name, but Pei Tela really wanted to be his mother.
After a short oracle, Pei Tela disappeared. The mercenaries also changed the object of their kowtow to Luo Ya. This made the black-haired youth feel awkward. He hurriedly asked Cynthia to stop them.
It must be known that the high-level members of the Iron Wall Army, except for the genius Cynthia, were all old people in their seventies or eighties. No one could stand the sight of them lining up in a row to kowtow. Luo Ya looked at this scene and felt that his lifespan was decreasing.
So after some comforting, the old people finally calmed down a little. But when they heard that Luo Ya was going to take them back to Akat Hill, they began to cry with gratitude. It could not be helped. The pagans who had been wandering for a long time really longed for a stable place to belong. This was a feeling that non-pagans in this era could not understand.
First, they knelt together, then they cried together. This scene changed so quickly that the only two young people present, Luo Ya and Cynthia, had a headache. Luo Ya was fine, but Cynthia, as the leader, was flustered. Fortunately, the black-haired youth saw that the situation was not good and changed the topic. He mentioned that they needed guards for this trip.
If you say this, I won't cry anymore.
When the old people heard this news, they were excited, and then they enthusiastically signed up. The ten old men who were still crying a second ago were fighting for a place in their team. Some said that their beliefs were firm, some said that their equipment was good, and some said that there were more young people in the team. For a while, they were fighting fiercely.
Everything would be different the first time. It was the same for the first guard mission. Because people were lazy, it was normal for the team that they were used to not like to change. In other words, if this mission was done well, the whole team might be directly transferred to the personal army. This was a great honor.
The old men naturally knew this truth, so they fought with each other until their faces turned red. Everyone wanted to fight for a chance to be close to Luo Ya for their warriors. After all, they had seen Cynthia's example.
Ever since she received the blessing and recovered from her old injuries, Cynthia's spirit and complexion had improved a lot. Furthermore, according to her, the speed of her curse had also increased. This meant that her mutation speed would be faster. According to Cynthia's age, there was even hope for her to break through again in the future.
Such a large bonus made people jealous, but the gap between the Iron Wall Army's teams was not very big. For a time, it was difficult to determine who was better. In the end, Luo Ya could not stand it anymore, and simply ordered the teams to be mixed according to the quota. Only then did the Iron Wall Army's thousands of people form an elite team of 30 people.
In the team of 30 people, there was one Source Level 3, 20 Source Level 4, and 9 Source Level 5. The Source Level 5 people basically had special bloodline curses or skills, for example, the cooks.
That's right, this team … even the cooks were Source Level 5. If they were placed in the regular army, they would be considered as the captain.
This team could no longer be described as being able to fight. Luo Ya estimated that even her father's personal army was not this fierce. From this point, it could be seen that the Unyielding Perseverance Church had some skills.
