Chapter 24 Verification of Strength
Yao Luo faced everyone's gaze and did not avoid it. He walked towards the officer.
"Stop, young man."
The owner of the voice was none other than the Silver Mane Iron Guard in the army. His huge body made him look like a vocal iron tower, and he did not look down on Yao Luo because of his young age.
"Please explain your purpose." The spear slammed heavily on the ground, slightly raising the dust on the ground.
In the interval between conversations, a new recruit who had been knocked away earlier looked up and saw the badge on Yao Luo’s chest, and his eyes widened immediately.
"Sir, that is the Great Guardian's..."
Before he finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on the badge on Yao Luo's chest, and they began to whisper to each other.
"Hey, isn't that the City Builder's Will Medal representing the Great Guardian?"
"Does this mean we have to change the garrison officer?"
"Just this kid?"
"Silence!" With a loud shout, an invisible sound field spread out, and the melted snow in front of the tree at the door was silently shaken off.
For a moment, the training ground fell into dead silence, and even the friction sound of the soldiers' boots could be clearly heard.
The Iron Guard walked towards Yao Luo, and his huge figure blocked the sunlight in front of Yao Luo.
A black shadow was cast on Yao Luo's face. His expression did not change. The Iron Guard looked at Yao Luo's whole body and finally looked at the medal.
"Whose family are you from? I've never heard of you." The Iron Guard's buzzing voice came from his helmet.
"The Langdao family? No, I haven't heard of any famous heirs other than those two siblings."
"Goethes? Or Ramsteins?"
Seeing that Yao Luo didn't answer, Tiewei expressed his guess.
"In your eyes, only nobles can take on important tasks in Beloberg?"
Yao Luo looked at the soldiers in front of him without any hesitation in his eyes. Even though he had never heard of these families, he could guess most of them.
The guards in front of him probably thought he was some second-generation rich man who was here to gild his reputation.
"Hmph!" The iron guard gripped the gun tighter in his hand, and Yao Luo seemed to hear a squeaking sound from the arm armor.
"You don't understand what this badge represents."
A sense of momentum came from the huge figure in front of him, and in the bright sunshine, a cold current appeared silently.
A bright silver light suddenly appeared in front of Yao Luo's eyes, so fast that he had almost no time to react.
A gun, a gun that could break through the air and survive the endless icy abyss of Beloberg.
The silver-white spear passed through Yao Luo's white hair, cutting off half of the hair that was not long to begin with.
On an iron bridge that was close to its limit, Yao Luo dodged this lightning-fast shot.
He squatted down and kicked the iron guard's calf with his right foot, sweeping it with great force.
"collapse!"
The two intertwined, making sounds that could not be made by flesh and blood.
Without having time to see the results of the battle, Yao Luo knew that the next attack was coming!
He retreated quickly, and the next second, a large gun smashed towards the position where Yao Luo had just been.
Spider-web-like cracks spread from the ground. The force of this blow was more than five times stronger than the one in training just now.
"Well done, good fight!"
The recruits had never seen the instructor attack so seriously. They had only heard about the Silver Mane Iron Guards in rumors before. The real Iron Guards were all incredibly strong.
After taking a few steps back, Yao Luo quickly stood up, with his right hand in the shape of a knife, and red energy surging on it, using the power of the stigmata that had not been seen for a long time. If he used the gravity of the Star of Eden, Yao Luo was confident that he could make the Iron Guard in front of him unable to move a step, but that would go against Yao Luo's original intention of coming here.
Exercise your control over your strength.
So Yao Luo decided to win the battle without using any divine key.
As for the reason why the Iron Guards took action, Yao Luo guessed that it was probably because of the badge of Cocolia.
After missing the first strike, the Iron Guard effortlessly pulled out the spear that was deeply embedded in the ground, and used the force to launch another sweeping strike.
Yao Luo was prepared. He lowered his head to avoid the attack, quickly moved closer, and cut into the inner line of the iron guard's body.
It seemed that the Iron Guards already had experience in dealing with enemies like Yao Luo. They acted without any hesitation. Their thick military boots kicked through the air and directly kicked towards Yao Luo's body. If they hit, one blow would probably make the person unable to move.
In this moment that is beyond the reach of ordinary people, Yao Luo's vision turned into slow motion.
A clear view appeared in front of Yao Luo, and he could even see the stitching marks on the soles of the Iron Guards' boots.
His right hand disappeared in an instant, and Yao Luo's body turned into a butterfly flying in the storm. The Iron Guard's sure-hit attack brushed past Yao Luo's waist, while the attack containing red energy had already hit where it was supposed to go.
The Iron Guard's wrist holding the gun.
In the code of the Silvermane Guard, weapons are as important as the lives of soldiers. In the fight against the monsters of the Rift, dropping weapons is equivalent to giving up one's life.
With a cry of "Shock!", before the recruits who were watching could figure out what was happening, an astonishing scene appeared before them.
The heavy iron spear that the instructor never let go of during training and that everyone thought was almost growing in his hand was actually stuck on the wall at the entrance.
Almost half of the gun body was sunk into the wall, and the shaking of the gun tail had not stopped yet, but the seemingly unknown boy had already placed the hand knife with a red glow in front of the instructor's neck.
It is only an inch away from the throat.
Although he still maintained the posture of drawing his gun, Yao Luo knew that the machine-like guard in front of him had stopped fighting.
He silently retracted his posture, like a huge gear stopping its rotation.
After taking a few steps, he came in front of Yao Luo. His huge body suddenly straightened up, and the hand holding the gun hit the armor on his chest heavily.
"Silvermane Iron Guard Commander Yelena Mihashim is here to follow your orders."
The airtight helmet was taken off from his head, and a head of beautiful silver hair fell from between the armor, with a crisp sound like a bird returning to its nest in early spring.
Delicate face, determined eyes, a scar runs through the middle of the eye, almost running through the entire face, but it does not destroy the beauty of the face, but instead adds a bit of heroic spirit.
"You...you are a woman?"
Yao Luo couldn't help but be surprised. He really didn't expect that the iron tower-like warrior, a warrior who was almost a head taller than him, was a woman.
"Do you have any questions, sir?" The guard in front of him said the last two words almost with gritted teeth.
Facing this disgusting man in front of her, she really couldn't stand it anymore.
As for Cocolia, he had just submitted a petition asking the Grand Guardian not to interfere with the command of the Silver Mane Guards, but right after that he sent a young boy to the military camp, wearing the City Builder Badge that bore the will of all the previous Grand Guardians.
In the past, those who were able to wear this badge were all pioneers who made outstanding contributions to Beloberg. Most of them eventually became garrison officers of the Silver Mane Guard and commanded the entire Silver Mane Guard.
It would be fine if he found someone to disgust me, but I can't even take down this guy!
After a few moves, his spear was knocked away. He didn't know where this guy Cocolia found this monster from.
According to military regulations, he had to pay tribute to higher-level officers, which meant that the command of the front line might also be handed over to this kid by this hateful Cocolia!
"I think... you might be really mistaken."
A slightly awkward voice came from her ear.
