Chapter 109: Echo (II)

However, the Ausa clan was defeated in a duel by the Iron Whip Clan, who used insidious tactics behind their backs, and not only that, but also ended up with the patriarch being killed and the clan exiled to the Endless Cape. As the daughter of the patriarch, Drow Silvermoon, also known as Echo, was sold as a high-class slave to the slave traders of Bishui Harbor because of her outstanding appearance.

Due to his half-blood status, Iron Axe was not sentenced to exile due to his adoption by the Osha clan, but not the Sandfolk regarded him as a true Mogin. On the contrary, because of his strong martial arts, he was favored by other clans and wanted to reach out to recruit him. Iron Axe was grateful to the patriarch for his many years of care, and he was bent on rescuing the echo, so he did not hesitate to refuse the other clans. After a series of arduous journeys, he finally arrived at the Blue Water Harbor, but he didn't know that at this time, Echo had been sold to the Grey Keep Royal Capital.

Later, one is rescued by a witch and becomes a member of the Mutual Aid Society, while the other travels to the west of the Grey Keep in discouragement. Until today, the two unexpectedly reunited again in the border town.

"Then what are you going to do," Roland pondered for a moment, "will you return to the Far South with Echo and revive the Aosha Clan?"

"No, Your Highness!" Iron Axe knelt down on one knee, "I have sworn to the three gods that I will serve you forever for the rest of my life." I was just ...... at the time At that time, I was too excited to see Lord Yinyue and couldn't control my emotions, please punish you!"

"And what about you?" the prince looked at Echo, "do you want to avenge your people?"

Echo also knelt down and said, "I thought about revenge when I awakened as a witch, but now I don't have such thoughts. She bit her lip, "Please let me stay here...... I have nowhere else to go. โ€

"I see, stand up," Roland said quietly, "you don't have to be like this, I haven't said anything." He paused for a moment, and then changed his tone, "Actually, it's not impossible to help you get revenge. โ€

"What?" Iron Axe's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe his ears. Echo didn't react much, and it could be seen that she really didn't have much hope of returning to Iron Sand City.

"Not now, of course. Roland waved his hand. It wasn't a whim on his part, and in Iron Axe's description of the Far South, he heard something very interesting - the land was hot and dry, and the environment was strange. In particular, orange fires erupting from the ground can burn for decades without being extinguished. Ground faults with large drops can often be seen near orange fires. At the bottom of the fault, the black river of Styx flows.

Whether it's an orange fire or the River Styx, Roland thinks that this is not oil? And it is oil flowing in the open air! There is no need to repeat how important this black liquid is to industry, half of modern wars are caused by it, and the rise and fall of oil prices can affect the rise and fall of a number of countries, and even change the pattern of the world. If he could use the affairs of the Osha clan to intervene in the extreme south, maybe he would be able to get a stable source of oil.

However, Roland has no time to take care of the disputes in remote places now, so he has to leave an introduction first, and then stage a set of dramas "since ancient times".

"When I ascend the throne, I will consider seeking justice for you. Roland stopped the iron axe that wanted to kneel again, "But today's behavior violated the discipline of the First Army, and you will be confined for two days, so reflect on it yourself." โ€

"Yes, Your Highness," Iron Axe replied excitedly.

"Then the training continues," Roland said to the chief knight, "and you will be in charge of the rest of the procession." โ€

The card point header should be down.

Brian thought that would be the end of today's practice, but everyone was still sitting in the practice range, and no one dispersed alone.

Because before Carter left with the prince, he gave the order to rest on the spot, not to disband.

If it had been the patrol he had been in before, such a scene would have been unimaginable.

"Knight, do you think Ironaxe-sama will come?" the same group of nails came up and asked, "His actions just now really scared me. โ€

"How many times have you said don't call me an adult," Bryan corrected, "and in the First Army, you should call me the leader." His Highness has said that he should be commensurate with his rank. After being canonized as a knight by the Fourth Prince, his status in the ranks was so high that no one else dared to talk to him, except for Nail, a little man who had been transferred from the mines to the army, who often came up to talk to him. According to Nail, not to mention knights, even His Royal Highness Roland himself, he has talked to him at close range.

"This kind of thing...... Your Highness shouldn't blame him too much, right?" said that, but Brian didn't know the bottom of his heart. He had seen a civilian stab to death on the spot after accidentally ramming into the car of his previous lord. Iron Axe is a foreigner, and kneeling down to a woman in front of the prince and calling her "patriarch" can be regarded as a loss of honor.

"I guess so," Nail nodded repeatedly, "I have spoken to His Royal Highness the Prince myself, he has spoken to those nobles, well......" He scratched his head, as if wondering how to express it, "It looks similar, but it feels completely different." โ€

Brian didn't want anything to happen to Iron Axe, and after more than a month of collective training, he already admired the alien. In particular, he taught everyone how to set up tents during field training, and his exquisite skills and tireless teaching benefited everyone a lot. In the eyes of the Knights, Iron Axe was even more suitable than Carter Lannis for the command of the First Army.

"They're coming!" Nail nudged Brian's arm, "Hey, I don't seem to see Lord Ironaxe." โ€

Before he could think about it, Carter had already ordered everyone to form a team and stand in line according to the group they had been divided into. Then His Royal Highness Roland stepped forward and said: "The woman next to me is a witch named Echo, and she is also a long-lost ...... of Iron Axe Close relatives. The Iron Axe violated the discipline of the army by disrupting the formation, and was sentenced to two days' imprisonment in accordance with the regulations. Let me reiterate once again, you are a regular army, and the most important thing for a soldier is to obey orders and observe discipline!

"Yes, Your Highness!" Brian said loudly along with the others. Hearing the results of the iron axe's treatment, he was also relieved. The nail next to him made a sneaky grimace at him.

"The rest of the training will be carried out by Echo. Her ability is to simulate a variety of sounds, including musical instruments, horns, and drums. The marching song she will play next is the order to direct your movements! All of you will march to the beat of the drums, keeping your ranks on the same line as much as possible. Speaking of this, His Highness paused, "On the battlefield, the echo will stand behind you, she is the banner of the First Army, the soul of the musketeers......! Everyone gets acquainted with the tune first. โ€

What is a marching song? Brian listened to it with a confused expression, was it the music that was occasionally played and sung in the tavern?

But when a melody he had never heard before sounded from the echo mouth, he understood almost instantlyโ€”the rhythmic beat of the drums made him want to step away, and the light melody provoked his desire for battle.

-- The so-called marching song is a "war song" that inspires people on the battlefield and inspires everyone to keep moving forward.
