Chapter 31 (1/2)

Time flew by and soon, it was summer.

With the addition of the trolls and cyclops, the construction of the city wall was halfway done in just over a month.

The only bad thing was that the two races had a huge appetite. When they worked, each troll and cyclops had the appetite of five people each.

However, they usually only ate once a day. Most of the time when they weren’t working was spent sleeping.

After checking the city wall’s progress, Joshua turned around and left.

Back at the police station, Georgi was training these new subordinates in an orderly manner.

When he saw Joshua, he immediately threw over a weapon for practice. “Village Chief Joshua, these new recruits look down on your swordsmanship. How about you demonstrate it to them now!”

Hearing this, Joshua said with a straight face, “Oh! Is that so?”

With that, he took the sword for practice and pointed it at the young man from the Great Ghost clan in front of him. “Was it you?”

Because he was very young, he looked down on everything.

The young man immediately picked up a mace.

After testing it in his hands, he turned to Joshua and said, “Don’t blame me if you get hurt!”

Hearing this, Joshua laughed. “Haha! What an interesting young man. What’s your name?”

“My name is Lawrence. Now take this!” As he said that, he threw the mace in his hand directly at Joshua.

The sound of the wind breaking entered Joshua’s ears. Through this, Joshua had already determined his opponent’s strength.

“Your strength is not bad, but it’s not enough!” As he spoke, he pulled out the sword he was using to practice and raised his hand to slash at the incoming mace.

The sword in Joshua’s hand was twice as fast as the mace. The blunt sword then collided with the mace.

It cut the mace in Lawrence’s hand into two.

Seeing this scene, the young ghost man named Lawrence was stunned!

“How!”

At this time, Joshua had already put his weapon back into the sheath.

“It’s good to be young and vigorous, but don’t be overconfident. This will make you lose your way forward!”

Seeing Joshua’s attack, Georgi was also surprised.

He did not expect that Joshua’s sword skill could reach such a level in less than a month!

Feeling the strength that he could not surpass, Lawrence collapsed to the ground.

Seeing this, Joshua walked over, patted his shoulder, and said, “You’re still young. Train well behind Georgi. It won’t be long before you are capable of standing your own ground on the battlefield.”

Hearing this, Lawrence was very unwilling. Ordinary people should not say that it would not take long for them to surpass them!

What Joshua said made Lawrence feel a trace of rebelliousness in his heart as he soon became more passionate in his training.

After the competition ended, Joshua called Georgi to the side.

“Georgi, you should choose a few outstanding people to replace you. Next, we will start to build an army so you will be busy for some time after this.”

Georgi thought for a moment and nodded.

“I will settle this matter in the next few days!”

After giving his instructions, Joshua went back to the municipal center. He was ready to check on the recent financial situation.
