I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle
#652 - pale
The next morning, the town hall was already full of people, including warriors who had received the news from the Copper Heart Tavern yesterday, as well as those who had rushed overnight after the news spread.
Almost all the warriors from the five towns had arrived, but there were few bards to be seen.
Perhaps they suffered heavy casualties in the last war, or perhaps they already had poems in hand and didn't want to participate again.
Those who came were mostly mid-level warriors, with the highest being around level 6.
Danny, a level 5 knight, was already considered a good combatant among this group.
Everyone wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to join the Warriors Guild and use the Kingston family's resources to improve themselves.
As for how to fight against the demon army led by the Red-Robed Skeleton and the Bone Cart Sect... that could be considered later.
Li Yue mingled into the town hall when it was bustling with noise. He was sitting next to a pillar on the edge, facing the window of the town hall, with the first-floor washroom to his side.
The main components of the pillar and walls were hard stone, mixed with some copper ore residue. Li Yue had seen a lot of it in the tunnel and had personally dug through several places, knowing that this stuff was like a wooden door to him and could be opened directly.
The map was lit up the moment he entered the hall, and now there was only one dark spot left.
Just like the cage in the Iron Ore Town Church and the wine cellar in the Copper Heart Tavern.
It was the place Danny scanned when he retreated into Iron Ore Town.
"It's a pleasure to see you all," Li Yue's voice rang from the second floor, very cold.
Similar to the Copper Heart Tavern, the darkness in the town hall also existed in the lower half of the basement. From the architectural structure, it was likely a dungeon or something similar.
"Zou Ming Bai, warrior," the first to walk down was Zou Ming, and when reporting his "path," Jesse simply referred to himself as a warrior in a complicated way.
It wasn't even seven minutes before the time Zou Ming had agreed upon. Danny saw Soya looking around outside the hall, believing he was looking for himself or Jesse, so he didn't show his face.
"After the initial registration, you will be photographed, and then there will be a swearing-in ceremony," Li Yue drew the cross sword in his hand, "Sign a contract with me, become a member of my Warriors Guild, and achieve glory together."
However, behind that figure, there was a superimposed paleness.
Recalling the Iron Ore Town Church, Danny looked at the scene before him and felt a little ironic—the Iron Ore Town Church captured warriors and forcibly instilled faith in them next to the town hall. When they arrived at Copper Ore Town, the town hall was instead "recruiting" new Warriors Guild members, and the New Church didn't make any moves.
"Lost? Copper Ore Town only has a few roads. You can get lost too?" Soya couldn't understand at all.
Danny thought the Kingston family was also stupid. They certainly wouldn't give materials and promotion rituals for free. They had to make the warriors present become "their own people" before they would invest.
"The Warriors Guild's initial test is very simple. You only need to report your name and path, register, and confirm that you are not a believer," Zou Ming said, and a knight pulled over a mirror.
"Don Quixote? Isn't he right there?" Jesse pointed to the pillar, pointing right above Danny's head.
"Okay, then please stand here," Zou Ming pointed to the mirror device next to him.
A team of knights and mages stood beside Li Yue, and another team cleared the center of the hall before scattering to the edges.
Demon!?
"Oh, Zou Ming!" Soya happened to see him and hurriedly walked over to greet him, "Why are you so late? We were really looking forward to seeing you!"
"He was the first batch of warriors to enter and crusade against Demon King City after it opened. His path is also very pure. It is a very retro practice. Everyone, don't mind..." Li Yue had obviously investigated Zou Ming and quickly learned that this Lamont family fanboy wasn't like this from the beginning and didn't intend to hide it.
Zou Ming remembered Jesse's tendency to get lost and thought that this person probably got lost when charging towards Demon King City and ran all the way to the Seven Gold Towns?
"Didn't sleep well yesterday, just resting..." Danny slowly stood up, responded, and also noticed that Jesse's perception was very sharp.
"Oh, buddy! What are you squatting here for!" Zou Ming immediately pulled Jesse over to greet him.

Danny noticed that the reporter from the "Imperial News" was also there. He carried a wooden box and ran to the north side of the hall to set up his equipment, obviously wanting to seize this excellent publicity opportunity.
The warriors began to whisper among themselves, having not heard about a signing ceremony before coming.
There were also fewer guards than yesterday. In addition to Li Yue, there were 24 knights and 3 mages.
The warriors immediately began to discuss.
Even if there were some extremely vicious people in the dungeon, there was an 8th-level knight, Li Yue, and so many clockwork warriors displayed in the armory... that would be enough to solve it.
A pale tail swayed.
Immediately afterward, Li Yue and her guards walked down the stairs, all in full armor, not knowing whether they were guarding against something or simply wanted to give the warriors who came here a little mental shock.
When Zou Ming came early in the morning, he saw the New Church's followers knocking on doors from house to house, searching for the bone cards and eyeballs from last night, still strictly enforcing the ban on self-healing bones and bone cards.
The warriors present were also very familiar with this and didn't need much explanation.
Just like when he introduced himself as a "person."
Everyone immediately quieted down.
"I'm sorry, I got lost," Zou Ming scratched his head.
This surprised the warriors present.
Perhaps because idle people were either caught and sent to the mines to mine, or went to the armory to forge iron, or joined the New Church to become believers...
Opening the dungeon would allow him to leave.
In addition to the dungeon, Danny also saw the armory with his clairvoyance—the armory displayed two rows of clockwork warriors, and an old man slept beside them, holding the key to awaken them.
They must be non-believers.
"Do you have any questions?" Zou Ming asked all the warriors present.
"Everyone quiet down," Li Yue stood up, "I think I should explain for him."
"Is it starting?" Jesse asked.
The contrast was quite strong.
Danny certainly wouldn't sign any contract with Zou Ming. He only came here to light up the darkness—when the recruitment was over and everyone was busy registering, he would go to the washroom and see if there was a chance to go down to the dungeon.
"It's about to start. You picked a good time," Soya patted Jesse on the shoulder, "But I didn't see Don Quixote... Could it be that he doesn't want to join the Warriors Guild?"
Now that the warriors were all gathered in the town hall, who would go to apply to be a small soldier?
Li Yue believed that any closed space where warriors existed could not be directly lit up from the outside and needed to wait for the space to open or directly break in.
On the other hand, Jesse hurried in, with sweat even on his forehead.
Obviously, the Kingston family did not intend to accept the New Church, nor did they intend to recruit believers from other sects.
A lonely conscription order also appeared in the center of the town square, but few responded.
Danny had just planned his next move when the Warriors Guild's recruitment immediately began.
Jesse also naturally stood in front of the mirror, reflecting the figure of a white-haired youth.
Jesse nodded, responding to Li Yue's understanding.
