Chapter 159 Good morning

June 1st.

To be precise, it is not June 1st yet, but it is after this dark night.

The sun has not yet risen, and the entire Osfir is in darkness. In the dim moonlight, the Platinum Crown City located on the Snow Crown Mountain looks like a huge back, like a dormant beast.

If it were normal times, the current Platinum Crown City would still be silent. Although Osfir has burst out a lot of energy in terms of productivity, it is still far behind in terms of entertainment and everything that humans call "prosperity".

Very far.

However, today is different from the past. Although it is still dark, the entire Platinum Crown City is ready to explode, like a volcano about to erupt.

In the square in front of the committee headquarters, soldiers from the army had already lined up in a line to separate the open space in front of the committee from the city.

The Osfil soldiers standing guard looked in high spirits and were not affected by the darkness at all. They were wearing well-fitting military uniforms and light armor, and they were very heroic. Everyone was holding on to the rocker, looking forward, motionless.

In front of them, on the other side of the square, there were already dense crowds of people. Through the moonlight, they could vaguely see people rushing here.

Needless to say, there must be something important happening here. This kind of gathering of people could only be seen during the Theos parade five years ago.

At this time, in a small hotel in the southern part of Platinum Crown City, three halflings were preparing to leave.

"Oh, hurry up! Brother! And Uncle Gemu, get up quickly, it's going to be too late!"

In an ordinary guest room, a burning kerosene lamp illuminated the room brightly. Tuoke, who had just fallen asleep, felt someone playing with his head in a daze, and his ears seemed to be pulled a few times.

He tried his best to open his eyes, and two identical figures appeared in Tok's field of vision. Tok was greatly puzzled. He rolled his eyelids. The figures in front of him gradually moved closer and merged into one, showing the one he was most familiar with.

appearance.

"Lina...let brother sleep again." Tok turned over and was about to fall asleep in the next second.

"Oh, you damn pig brother, you are not allowed to sleep!" Lina, who was only seven or eight years old, was full of energy and pulled her brother's ears to lift his head up.

After struggling for a while, Tuoke finally came to his senses.

The middle-aged half-length Gemu who slept on the same bed as Tok also kept smiling bitterly, holding his confused head and trying to cheer up.

"Little Lina, it's still early. Looking at the moon, I'm afraid it's not even midnight." Gemu opened the window, glanced at the sky, and couldn't help but be speechless.

"Humph, you don't know, but I can hear it. There are people walking on this street all the time. If we don't start, we won't see anything." Lina pursed her mouth, very frustrated, and her eyes wandered around, anxious.

no.

Hearing this, Tok was startled: "No way! Is anyone leaving at this time?"

He quickly ran to the window and looked down. It was exactly what his sister said. There were already many people on the street below the hotel, and it seemed that their direction was heading towards the square in front of the committee.

"Oops!" Tok slapped his head and said it was too curly.

You know, in order to watch the founding ceremony and the flag-raising ceremony of Osfil, the three of them had booked a guest room in Platinum Crown City long ago and set off from their farm in the first two days.

We drove slowly and hurriedly all the way, and we only arrived in the city the night before yesterday. It was said that it was the night before yesterday, but in fact, Tuoke had just fallen asleep at this time.

But after all, it was to watch the ceremony. Although he was seriously sleep deprived, Tok could only cheer up. If he really didn't see anything, he would be in big trouble.

To say the least, it is not a ceremony that everyone has the opportunity to come and watch. Lina and her family were able to get here thanks to the many points that Uncle Gemu had received from his previous military exploits, which he exchanged for a sum of money.

Thinking of this, Tuoke stopped worrying, got up, packed up quickly, and was ready to set off.

"Bread to eat, kettle..." Tok and Gemu packed up the things they had prepared together one by one. After confirming that they were all brought, they opened the door.

"Lina, it's night now, it's still cold outside, put this blanket on." Gemu took out a blanket and handed it to Lina.

If we set out now, we really have to wait until dawn. Not everyone can stay up half the night standing up.

"Oh! Let's go!" Lina wrapped herself in a blanket and swooped out as if she couldn't run out of energy, causing Tok and Gemu to shake their heads.

There is no way, who calls Lina the highest status in their family?

After leaving the hotel, all the people on the road were like them, hoping to find a good seat as soon as possible. Although they didn't know each other, maybe because the day was special, everyone said hello to each other in a tacit understanding.

Tieflings, ogres and even mountain giants, all kinds of races that Lina had never seen before opened her eyes and amazed her.

When we finally arrived in front of the square, it was already completely dark.

"Wow!" The halfling family was stunned and had no choice but to try to find a good seat among the airtight crowd.

The wide square was clearly divided into two lines by the soldiers standing guard. One side was crowded, while the other side was deserted. Only the majestic buildings of the committee were brightly lit.

At this time, a group of people also gathered in a courtyard in front of the committee.

Hundreds of Osfir soldiers were all wearing the latest armor. Each set of armor was carefully maintained by the soldiers and was polished so brightly that it could reflect the moonlight.

These soldiers are of medium stature, neither too big nor too small, neither clumsy nor thin. They look just right, similar to burly humans. They are all hobgoblins with clear water, a direct line from Valk's most elite and closest confidants.

selected from.

And at this moment, these guys who were originally the marshal's personal troops were all standing squarely and uniformly, listening to the lectures of a goblin in front of them.

"I know that you are all Lord Valk's cronies, but because of this, you cannot embarrass Lord Valk!"

"At the founding ceremony, it is a great honor for our goblin clan to be the flag bearers for the first flag raising. We must not let other clans see our jokes!"

"Did you hear everyone!?" Clay stood at the front with a serious face. Although he was a goblin, his aura was not timid at all and he was very stern.

"I heard it!"

More than a hundred goblins responded in unison, with astonishing momentum. Clay touched his ears that were buzzing from the shock and nodded with satisfaction.

Although his words were harsh, it was time for him to say so, so there was no need to say anything more.

It’s not easy. He carefully trained day and night and finally barely reached Lord Valk’s standards. When Valk came to him and gave him the task, Clay was very scared. Now he can finally

Delivered.

That's right, their group is the flag guard who will raise the flag at dawn in front of all the people in Platinum Crown City who come to watch the ceremony!

This is also a small number of people with a number of hundreds, and they are not called flags but called teams.

Just when Clay was about to lead his team to check for missing items and hurry up to find a feeling before dawn, the courtyard door was pushed open.

This courtyard door is not something anyone can break in casually. Clay turned around in confusion and saw the man who was about to be awarded the highest title in the Osfir army.

"General Valcke!" Clay stood up and saluted.

"Hello, General!" everyone shouted in unison.

Although it is known internally that Valcke will soon be the marshal, he cannot be called one yet.

"Are you all here? OK, OK."

Valk was followed by a group of cheering people, who seemed to be here for inspection. The leader of the army nodded, and looked very kind and pressed his hands to keep quiet.

"I just happened to come over here, let's take a look." Valcke took a few steps forward and took a closer look at this first flag guard of Osfill. Clay followed behind and followed him one step behind.

The hard training paid off, and in the end Valcke was satisfied. In fact, he often paid attention to the situation here.

After all, this was the first time that a flag was raised. Valcke arranged for flag-guarding teams of different races to be rotated regularly in the future. But the first one was given to a member of his own race to protect his shortcomings. It would be great if he did it well, but he was beaten.

He also has a shameless face.

So, after seeing it, Valk encouraged his fellow descendants and left.

Now the various races in Osfir are competing against each other. Although he is about to become the marshal, he does not really say that he favors the goblins. He even says that he wants to avoid suspicion because using public affairs for personal gain is what Theos hates most.

.

The committee here is still making various preparations, and the square outside finally has more and more people as time goes by, and finally it is really overcrowded.

"It seems we can't squeeze in."

In a street breakfast shop outside the square, a group of about ten people sat around one or two tables and ate.

It was a special day, so the breakfast shop here opened early and started doing business. However, most people left after breakfast, or packed a meal to take away and rushed forward. It is rare for these humans to do this

Sit here and take your time.

Of these two tables of humans, one table is full of warriors wearing light armor, and the other table is ordinary. But if you look carefully, you can find that the clothes of these people look simple, but they are all made of excellent materials and are not inferior.

to those nobles.

"It's from Charles's family, your steamed buns." The dwarf landlady brought a large pile of steamed buns and put them on the table.

"Thank you." Charlie nodded politely, grabbed one and ate it. He said to the middle-aged man next to him: "You should eat it too, because you can only eat these here."

Allen nodded and ate too. As soon as they moved, the rest of the group did the same.

There are very few humans who can travel within Osfir. If you see them, their identities are easy to guess. Ninety-nine percent of them are members of the Charles family.

After the Charles family was assassinated and destroyed by the Oger royal family, the remnants of the family fled to Osfir and obeyed Theos.

In recent years, Theos has not made many demands on them, so during this period, the Charles family has recovered a lot of its strength after experiencing previous major changes.

Over the past few years, Allen and Charlie continued to send people back to the Og Empire and the Kingdom of Aslan, and continued to gather up the remaining forces left behind during the hasty escape. Today, the original family's forces have regained about 10%.

Thirty percent.

In addition, the Charles family also absorbed people from other kingdoms on this basis and continued to grow.
