Evolve bloodline from golden dragon

Chapter 85 Four Years
In a blink of an eye, four years have passed.

The eastern border of Xilan Mountain.

Twin Mountains are not prominent among the thousands of mountains in Xilan Mountain. Four years ago, they didn't even have a name.But now, the reputation of Twin Mountain is not small.

These are two mountains with almost the same size and shape. There is a narrow road between them, which is one of the passages leading to the interior of Xilan Mountain.In the past few years, almost every intersection like this has been built with defensive fortresses, and Shuangzi Mountain is no exception.

The Twin Fortresses are located between the two mountains.

Banner stood at the head of the city, his eyes carefully patrolling the distance, not letting go of any trouble.

As a new goblin recruit this year, he was nervous.

Although the training results in the new barracks of the Little Giant Fortress are still excellent, as goblins, they are usually weak on the battlefield. Therefore, from the first day he was assigned to the twin castles, he meticulously executed every defense task.

Even standing guard.

Four years ago, under the leadership of Lord Theos, Osfil defeated the orc invasion and let the orc prince die here.

All of this, after Timos brought the news back to the Beastman Empire, caused an uproar within it, and even caused many forces to be surprised.

How could the Orc Empire endure such a failure?

Since that year, the orcs have waved their troops every year, vowing to wash away this humiliation with blood.

So far, it has been four years.

"Recruit, did you find anything?" A voice suddenly sounded next to Banner's ear, and Banner knew who it was as soon as he heard it.

"K... Officer Clay! Report, no... nothing found!" Banner stammered.

"Don't be nervous." Clay patted the young goblin's shoulder. With so much strength, he almost staggered Banner.

Compared with four years ago, Clay has changed a lot. He is only half the height of a human, but he is wearing an iron armor. There are a few scars on the only exposed cheek, which looks a lot of vicissitudes.

After the first battle that year, he seemed to have got the hang of it, and he charged forward in every battle since then, not knowing what life and death are, but every time he narrowly survived.Twice, the auxiliary soldiers who cleaned the battlefield found him from the pile of corpses.

In this way, he was promoted all the way from the chief soldier to the commander of the tens and hundreds, and now he is the deputy of the commander of a thousand, in charge of 500 people.

"War, that's all." Clay's hand stroked the city wall, and there were cut marks on it.

His words made Banner next to him admire him. Chief Clay's brave deeds were widely circulated among the goblin recruits, and he was their idol.

"It's normal to never be afraid to be afraid. This is a kind of growth. When you are no longer afraid, you will succeed." This is Clay's experience.

"When will this war end?" Banner asked with his head tilted.

"almost."

In the past few years, except for the fierce attack of the orcs in the first two years, the subsequent offensive has slowed down. Up to now, the intensity of the war has been very small, and the main focus is on vigilance.

"The high-level judges that circulated said that the orcs' counterattack was more out of political needs. It is said that the situation has changed now."

Although Clay has grown, he is not very clear about the twists and turns in this regard.

Speaking of high-level officials, Banner's interest was aroused: "Sir, I heard that you met the lord up close and were given treasures?"

Clay smiled wryly. He didn't expect the recruits to gossip like this. When he mentioned Theos, he also showed memory and admiration. He was about to speak——

"There's a situation!" Banner yelled.

Clay turned his head and saw a carriage slowly driving on the road in front of the fort.

The head of the fortress suddenly moved, and in a short while, the goblin soldiers entered the fighting position.

Raising his hand to tell the soldiers not to attack, Clay found that the carriage didn't seem to be hostile. It stopped after a certain distance, and a human came out of it.

"Say your intentions."

"Please allow me to introduce myself." The human, dressed in a gorgeous purple robe, stroked his chest and saluted.

"Alan Charles, the owner of Mezro City - the envoy of Earl Charles."

It took Clay a while to understand the meaning of the human words. "Humans like to talk around!"

"On behalf of the Charles family, I would like to pay tribute to the famous Golden Dragon Lord in the north. If possible, please introduce me. This is a meeting ceremony."

Everyone at the top of the city looked at each other in blank dismay, and Clay sent someone down to take a look, and there were indeed some exquisite cloth and jewelry inside.

Clay began to believe what humans said, but he still had to be vigilant. "Bring him up!"

"Hey! You can't treat a friendly messenger like this! Let me go, it's rude!" The goblin soldiers came up and controlled Alan.

"I advise you to shut up, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings." Clay did not remember that he had diplomatic training, "Take him down and take care of him. If the verification is correct, Mr. Allen, you will be fine."

No matter how dissatisfied Alan was, he was escorted by a group of goblin soldiers all the way to the bottom of the fortress.

Then, these monsters actually asked him to take off his clothes?

Alan, who was trembling with anger, was almost stripped of his face in mourning. Fortunately, the group of monsters didn't intend to embarrass him any further, and sent him to the private room after making sure that he didn't have any murder weapon on him.

Then, there was the sound of locking.

"How rude!" As soon as he entered the room, Allen fell headlong into the bed covered with straw, put his head in his hands and stared at the ceiling.

As Earl Charles' confidant, how could Allen be an ordinary person?He is an elite swordsman who has received a good noble education and training.

As long as he thought about it just now, the goblin escort would undoubtedly die, only the goblin chief seemed to have some strength.

But he didn't, despite suffering some humbling moments.He came here with the interests of the earl, how could he give up so easily.

Although he refused when he heard from the earl that he was asked to come here.

Allen didn't think some monsters in the mountains could help them.Although he did hear that the orc's attack seemed to be somewhat frustrated, but after all, it was a poor country, and it would not be a wise move for the orc to take advantage of it.

However, after seeing the twin castles, he changed a little bit.

The well-trained and well-equipped goblins opened Alan's horizons, and the fortress guards were strict.

I hope you can give me a bigger surprise...

……

Not to mention that Allen was in a daze in the cell, a banquet is about to start in the fort here-Deputy Chief Clay's farewell party!

According to the regulations, the two officers and the defensive troops cannot eat at the same time, so the hobgoblin commander Hatton and half of the soldiers have already eaten, but this does not affect the excitement of the farewell party in the slightest.

"Congratulations, Clay, I'm going back tomorrow, and I hope the debrief goes well." Hatton and Clay clinked glasses—they contained fruit juice.
