As they got closer, Wang Chu could see clearly even though it was still a bit unclear in the heavy rain.
There were more than a dozen people following the two boats, all dressed in uniform, holding weapons in their hands, and looking a little embarrassed.
This is what soldiers wear, Wang Chu said in his heart.
The appearance of the armor is different from that of the soldiers in the Imperial Capital.
Soldiers in various regions of the Asta Empire wear different armors.
For example, in Hajar City, except for some special troops, ordinary soldiers wear chainmail and chains.
Mainly A, because the weather is drier in that place.
"Are those soldiers here?"
Rias also saw the situation below.
The heavy rain is still falling, and you can see that except for the boaters, other people are working hard to scoop out the rainwater from the boat room with wooden basins.
They are all made of wooden boats, and they are made larger in order to accommodate many people.
When water enters, it is very difficult for both of them to scoop them out.
Watching the fleet dock, Rias asked the soldiers to bring them up.
More than a dozen soldiers who were in a state of embarrassment came up.
The people from the southern border had yellowish skin, probably due to the weather.
When they saw Rias, they all looked surprised and even a little dull.
How could they expect to get the leader of this army?
She is such a young girl and so beautiful.
"Don't worry, I won't dig out your eyes.
See clearly, our general is the Imperial Guard Knight Commander."
Nicos scolded at the side.
The soldiers on the border don't pay attention to each other's position at first glance like those in the Imperial City, because there are too many generals in the Imperial City, and they don't know who will die if they don't pay attention first.
Several soldiers were even more surprised.
There were almost no generals with such a high rank in the south.
Today they actually saw him and she was still a young girl.
Several soldiers were busy bowing their heads and saluting.
"Which unit are you soldiers from?"
Rias asked.
"We, we are soldiers of Zhuri City, general."
He kept nodding his head, his voice seemed to be trembling, they were afraid.
They are all normal reactions.
Rias's title is higher than that of ordinary local officers.
Even if she returns to Hajar City, she has almost the highest military rank.
How could ordinary local soldiers not be afraid when they meet someone of such status?
Especially since there was such a disrespectful look just now.
"From Sun-Chasing City, you should know the location of Sun-Chasing City's military headquarters.
There is also a general who came from the Imperial Capital.
They beat us by a few days."
Rias has always wanted to know about Ain's situation, because she originally They also followed in his footsteps, but they never caught up with the opponent's troops.
The few soldiers in front of him shook their heads hard.
However, someone behind him raised his hand.
"General, I know the general who came over.
He should be in our camp."
The soldier said, putting his feet up so that he could be seen in front of him.
He is not tall and looks like he may be in his teens.

The armor he wears is the lowest-grade soldier armor.
"Oh, where is your camp?"
Rias asked curiously.
"In the middle of the Sunset Mountains, that's that direction."
He also pointed to a direction far away from the flood area.
Who can understand this kind of direction?
Wang Chu followed the hand and pointed, as if everyone was pointing in that direction.
It was better not to point to places that were too far away.
He then told Rias about the current situation in Sunchaser City's military headquarters.
Similar to what the previous refugees said, the military and the Magician Association, as well as the priests of the cathedral, had discovered earlier that the flood level was very abnormal.
Heavy rains continued to fall.
In order to protect the Sun City, The army of the city lord and nobles established a camp in advance on Sunset Mountain, the largest mountain range in the south.
We are also preparing to build residential areas for ordinary residents.
However, the flood broke out so quickly, with almost no warning, that it swallowed up the entire Zhuri City in an instant, leaving many people with no time to evacuate.
"Sunset Mountain is very famous in the southern border.
It was originally the border defense line of the empire.
Today, there is still the site of the camp.
Zhuri City has established a stronghold in the entire Ge Mountain Range.
A total of two batches of generals from the empire came here.
The first batch was in Zhuri City.
It came when it was not flooded.
It was to help reinforce the border.
The empire would send some generals here almost every year at this time.
The rising water in the river basin would cause some disaster losses.
The empire has always been worried that the several principalities in the east would attack it.
We have action," the soldier said.
After all, it is a stolen territory, and I am always worried that it will be taken back again while I hold it in my hand.
"The other group contacted our stronghold a few days ago, so they sent a fleet to take them back."
The soldiers said in a meeting that the time seemed to be about the same, including Henry and Ain who came one after another.
Father and son.
"Since this is your stronghold, why aren't you there?"
Rias asked.
At this time, several soldiers looked at each other and said nothing.
Rias and her soldiers around her understood that this was supposed to be a confidential mission, so they didn't dare to say it rashly.
"I am the Guard Knight Captain Rias, who was directly dispatched by the empire to help."
Rias directly stated her identity.
Since she was specially sent here, she will discuss all future military deployments with her, so let's talk now and later.
The results are the same.
Several soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and the young soldier just continued.
"We were originally scouts sent from various camps.
Because of the heavy rain in the past few days, which blocked our way back, we have become what we are now.
The general must have heard the news that the imperial general and the entire army were missing some time ago, right?
” Of course he knows everything about Henry, otherwise why would he be here.
The young soldier took a deep breath and continued.
"In fact, the great mentors of the Magician Association have long suspected that the sudden rise in the flood this time is not a normal phenomenon."

Wang Chu also crawled out of the raincoat on Rias's chest to listen.
It seemed that the following was the key point.
Several pairs of eyes stared at him, but only for a moment, and then looked elsewhere.
"Before the arrival of the rainy season, we saw a large number of demons gathering in the southern wilderness.
Although they gather together almost every year for some kind of meeting, only this time the number of people was the largest, and when the floods rose, the Magician Association also felt it.
The instability of the elements can only call upon the spirits of the elements, who are special beings in the wilderness.”
"Shaman" After the soldier finished speaking, the other soldiers all had serious expressions on their faces.
"General, General General Lucia is back."
At this moment, news came from the soldiers watching on Yashan Mountain
