in the afternoon
On the west tower of the Great Wall, Lin Hao followed Hua Mulan and gazed at the desert in the clouds.
This desert was the Gobi that the Great Wall Guards had guarded for generations.
Every soldier of the Great Wall Guards who died heroically in battle had fallen in this desert, and the blood they left behind was enough to dye the walls red.
Hua Mulan, Su Lie, Jialuo, and a fox-eared young man that Lin Hao was very familiar with stood on the city tower.
The fox-eared youth was Baili Shouyue. He had been holding his sniper rifle the entire time.
Without Baili Xuance, he would have been captured by the bandits last year and taken to the depths of the desert.
Without armor, he had not migrated over from Haidu.
Shen Mengxi and Dun Shan were not there either. They were not members of the Great Wall Guards.
"Lin Hao, are you ready?"
Hua Mulan held a bowl of sake in her hands and brought it to Lin Hao.
Qingjiu swore an oath. This was the traditional ceremony for joining the Great Wall Guards.
Lin Hao took the wine bowl with a determined expression. He turned around and stared at the desert in the distance.
"Team member Lin Hao, from now on, you must remember that you are the 1637th member of the Great Wall Guards!
"Team member Lin Hao, some armies are famous because of their military achievements, and some are proud because they have a general.”
"However, the pride of the Great Wall Guards is the most sacred of the soldiers of the Great Tang!”
"Because the Great Wall Guards are proud of the countless heroes who died in the battle against the Demon Seeds!
"Team member Lin Hao, members of the Great Wall Guards must remember that you only have one duty-to protect the Great Wall with your life.”
"Using flesh and blood to build this glorious Great Wall and protect the people of the empire. Now, are you willing to offer your enthusiasm and loyalty to the people and the Great Wall, and fight for the sake of sacrifice at all times?”
After Hua Mulan finished speaking seriously, she gestured for Lin Hao to drink half of the wine.
Drinking half of the wine and pouring the other half into the desert below the city was the ceremony of joining the Great Wall Guards for many years.
Lin Hao also nodded solemnly and raised his head to drink the wine in large gulps.
His heart trembled.
He, who had never drunk white wine before, felt uncomfortable. The alcohol content of this wine was so high!
When the white wine entered his throat, it was as spicy as a knife. After it entered his stomach, it burned even more.
Lin Hao felt a little dizzy after just a mouthful of wine.
He drank too much!
Su Lie couldn't help but smile, secretly thinking that this young man didn't know how to drink.
How could he drink white wine on an empty stomach so fiercely? Even a brawny man like him would get drunk easily.
A strong feeling of dizziness filled his head. This was too good. Lin Hao could not help but cough violently.
He tried his best to hold it in. He walked to the side of the city tower and poured the remaining half of the bowl of wine into the desert below the city tower.
The wine left the porcelain bowl. A breeze blew past, blowing the wine into the air.
The sparkling water droplets danced in the air, shining brightly.
"From today onwards, I, Lin Hao, am an official member of the Great Wall Guards!”
After saying that, he suddenly threw the porcelain bowl on the ground.
The porcelain bowl shattered into pieces.
This was also one of the rituals to join the Great Wall Guards. Breaking a bowl was a form of swearing.
Hua Mulan revealed a gratified expression. She was very satisfied with Lin Hao's oath.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 5 favorable impression points from Hua Mulan.”
Just by officially joining the Great Wall Guards, he easily obtained 5 Favorability Points.
Now, Hua Mulan's favorability index for him had reached 11 points. It had only been two days!
At this rate, it wouldn't take long to complete this hidden quest.
"Captain, we still have to patrol outside the city. I'll leave this kid to you.”
Su Lie laughed heartily and patted Lin Hao's shoulder.
He suddenly felt his shoulder sink, as if a thousand-pound boulder had smashed into his shoulder.
"Captain doesn't have a teammate yet, and Lin Hao happens to be the first.”
The usually cold and quiet Jialuo said lightly.
This was the first time that Jialuo said his name in front of Lin Hao.
It was enough to prove that Jialuo had truly acknowledged him.
Hua Mulan nodded. After watching Su Lie and Jialuo leave, she wrapped her left arm around Lin Hao's neck.
He was forced to bend down awkwardly as Hua Mulan's arms wrapped around his neck.
This action was too uncomfortable!
"Brother Lin Hao, you said that you know a little secret about the Great Wall and that you can add a teammate to us. Now, tell us the details?”
Hua Mulan asked Lin Hao with a smile.
Lin Hao was extremely embarrassed.
So it was just a small matter. There was no need to hug her neck so forcefully!
Now, he could barely lift his waist, and the right side of his face was still pressed against Hua Mulan's left chest.
This feeling…although it was very comfortable, it didn't look very elegant.
"Yes, I heard this little secret from a few people when I was in Jade City.”
"They said that in the kitchen of the Great Wall Guards 'camp, there was a table that was a powerful robot that was in a deep slumber.”
"Oh, it seems like this robot is from Haidu.”
"That's all I know. Sister Hua Mulan, let go of me!”
He tried his best to push Hua Mulan's arm away and tried to stand up straight.
After hearing these words, Hua Mulan was deep in thought and gradually let go of Lin Hao's neck.
A robot? From Haidu? Powerful and sleeping?
Hua Mulan vaguely remembered that she had seen the name " Haidu " in an ancient book.
It seemed to be a coastal city far away in the west of Yunzhong Desert, across the entire Sunset Sea.
"Come, follow me."
Pulling Lin Hao along, Hua Mulan rushed to the camp's kitchen.
Baili Shouyue, who had just returned to the kitchen of the camp, was about to go out to buy the ingredients for tonight's meal.
She happened to see the captain and Lin Hao running over in a hurry.
"Shouyue, make more meat dishes tonight. We might have new companions!”
Without waiting for Baili Shouyue's reply, Hua Mulan brought Lin Hao into the camp's kitchen.
Baili Shouyue was confused, not understanding what the captain meant.
Scratching his hair, Baili Shouyue quickly went out to buy ingredients.
Since the captain said that he would improve the food tonight, he would follow the rules.
Lin Hao was dragged into the kitchen by Hua Mulan, panting as he held his chest.
"Tell me, what are you talking about? Where is the robot?"
Hua Mulan pointed at the entire kitchen and asked Lin Hao.
Lin Hao kept taking deep breaths. His speed was far slower than Hua Mulan's.
Now that she was forcefully pulling him to increase his speed, he almost fainted.
Lin Hao gradually calmed his breathing and carefully observed the entire kitchen, staring at every table.
When he saw the dusty iron table not far away, he could not help but laugh.
This huge pile of " iron table " really looked like a kitchen table!
Mount Shield, a real robot, was actually used as a table.
Walking towards the dormant Mount Dun, Lin Hao pointed at it and turned to look at Hua Mulan.
"This is it."
"It was used as a table, but it was actually a very powerful robot!”
Lin Hao had a serious expression on his face. He spoke very seriously.
Hearing Lin Hao's explanation, Hua Mulan was stunned.
Was he really not joking with her?
This was clearly a table for chopping vegetables. How could it be a powerful robot!
Unable to understand what was going on, Hua Mulan chose to believe Lin Hao.
After all, if this chopping table was really a powerful robot, it would be a huge boost to the strength of the Great Wall Guards.
If it wasn't, it didn't matter. In any case, he wouldn't lose anything.
