25. Conscription

Although he was mentally prepared enough, Luo Wei still regretted it when he stood at the entrance of the alley.

The pungent stench came towards him. He didn't want to stay too long for a second, and kept retreating and then backing.

It was not until I arrived at the fence outside the town that I took a careful breath.

What happens if a town has no sewer?

Now, Lovie has the most intuitive understanding.

After a rough look, garbage and excrement were everywhere, and sewage flowed everywhere.

If you can avoid getting sick in this environment, you can only admire the strong physique of people in other worlds.

"I'll just say it." Lan Lan kept covering her nose, hiding from a distance, and didn't even come over.

Lovie reluctantly calmed down and pointed to the fence and asked, "Can you walk forward and go around the main road?"

"Yes, but why don't you go back?" Lan Lan was puzzled.

"I want to actually see how big Happy Town is." Lowe said a high-sounding reason.

"Young master, why don't we go from the mountain?" Lan Lan raised her hand and pointed to the road outside the fence and had to go out through the gate.

It took about a quarter of an hour to go from the west to the south.

Huange Town is actually equivalent to a medium-sized university.

In terms of transportation, it mainly involves two main roads that meet, four exits in the southeast, west and north, leading to the farmland outside the town in four directions.

Leaders usually live in the town, while wanderers live outside the town, invisibly acting as meat shields to attract the spy of wild beasts.

It's very unfair, but it's helpless. After all, it's great that the leaders are willing to accept the vagrants and live there.

Therefore, most homeless people want to become formal conquerors.

On the high platform built by the town hall, Lodell held his hands and looked down at the bustling heads below him.

"If you have any questions, just ask..."

"What is the salary?" someone from the audience raised his hand and shouted.

"Salary of six silver dollars per month, and seven silver dollars a year later. Those with strength will be promoted to captains. The salary will be twelve silver dollars." Lodell replied loudly.

"I am a vagrant. Can I become a conqueror after joining the army?"

"Yes, as long as you serve us, we will naturally accept you. The term is three years, and if you make meritorious service, you can shorten the time as appropriate."

"Can a man sign up?"

"It is recommended not to do so unless you plan to suffer. Our training is very hard and the military regulations are strictly strict. Violators will be punished regardless of gender."

“Is there an age limit?”

"Often you don't have elderly people or young kids. Of course, if your strength can be recognized by me, age is not a restriction."

Lodell patiently answered the crowd's questions, including specific benefits and pensions.

It is a pity that Evelyn's Earl's Corps does not have any low-level nobles.

When someone asked whether he could make meritorious service and become a noble, Lodell made it clear that the current situation was almost impossible, and that the division of titles could be carried out unless a war broke out in the territory.

"Okay, the Q&A time is over. Those who want to sign up come and queue up." Lodell raised his arm to signal.

In front of the three stones below the stage, the crowd quickly lined up in a long queue.

"First test strength. Secondly, test endurance." Zoiran said.

"Don't you test agility and responsiveness?" someone asked.

"If you have absolute confidence, our scout team can also accept people." The new scout captain Wolme took a step forward with a sharp look and said very quickly: "The ugly words are ahead, and the scouts are at a very high risk. Of course, the income is also high. The starting salary is 8 silver dollars. The elite scouts have 10 silver dollars. Don't come if you don't have the ability. I only want one."

There were discussions from the crowd. Many people thought the scouts’ salary was very good and wanted to give it a try. But the admission rate was too insincere.

In contrast, the admission quota for ordinary soldiers would be more reliable. Considering the fact that only a few people came to Walme.

With Lodell's approval, the strength test began.

There are three stones of different grades in total.

The first stone is about 100 kilograms, which is already a certain difficulty for ordinary people. The second stone is twice as big as the first one.

I don’t know who brought the third stone, but it is at least seven or eight hundred kilograms.

"rise!"

The dark yellow skin and the strong woman with dreadlocks raised the second stone with difficulty. A burst of cheers broke out in the audience.

She glanced at the third stone and shook her head helplessly.

"What's your name?" Zoe cast a praise-looking look.

"Gunaba, a homeless man from the grassland in the west." The strong woman whispered.

"No, next one." Lodell nodded slightly.

When Lovey arrived at the scene, the recruitment selection had reached the middle.

The process is very fast. If it works, it works. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work.

As the crowd made a way out, Lovey came to Lodell.

"What are you doing?"

“No money to buy things.”

"I'll give it to you when I'm done."

Luo Wei found a seat with a backrest in the city hall office and sat on the platform with relish.

There is no entertainment anyway, so it is also interesting to watch a tomboy lift stones.

Finally the last person.

A girl with black hair and a single ponytail came forward. She had a physique similar to Lodell and was thinner.

His appearance can only be considered positive and his eyes are bright.

She walked towards the second stone and slowly leaned down.

Not much attention was paid to it, and most people felt that this person was overestimating his ability and wasting time.

The result was unexpected.

After the girl raised the stone above her head, she threw it lightly into the sky a few times. When she bent down, there was no dust rising.

"What's your name?" Zoe looked solemn with the same question.

"My name is Li, I come to join the family. I want to join the army and get a household registration." The girl was kind and raised her hand and pointed to the third stone, "Can I try it?"

"Yes, if you can do it, I will promote you to be the captain of the recruits." Lodell promised generously.

Li took a deep breath, walked to the edge of the boulder, bent down to find the right point of focus. With the roar, the boulder was slowly lifted up by her and gradually passed over her head.

It lasted for ten seconds like a statue, and everyone's expressions froze on their faces.

It was not until she flashed and the stone fell to the ground that the scene was revived.

Onlookers were shocked and discussed.

“So great strength.”

"Is she still a human race? Could it be that the dragon becomes?"

"Born of divine power!"

Li clapped the dust in her palm, "Sir, I did it."

"Not bad, very potential." Lodell nodded slightly, feeling sincere joy in his heart.

The talents of Evelyn's Count is really scarce. Every strong man's joining is precious.

Zoe was responsible for counting the number of people who passed. About 500 people signed up for the army, and only 73 people were able to move the stones in the end.

Among them, there are 70 women and three men, and the gender ratio is seriously unbalanced.
