Chapter 183 - Military Base (1) (1/2)

”Freeze! Don't move closer! This area is of your limit” A soldier took out his swords and aimed it at Auron.

Auron paused his step. He had arrived at the military base when one of the soldiers guarding the military base stops him.

”Wait, I mean no harm. I am a new graduate from the academy military. I am here to re-register at the camp.”

”Identify yourself!” The soldier shouted.

”I am Smiling Wizard” Auron showed out his information.

The soldier's friend who had received Auron's name began reporting to the base for a check. Not long after, he received a confirmation from the base and gave a green light signal to the soldier who was guarding against Auron.

Seeing the green light signal from his friend, the soldier began to loosen his guard and made way for Auron. The soldier just doing his job, so Auron didn't get offended by his actions.

Auron walked past the soldier inside the military area. Past the entrance, what greeted Auron was not a building, instead, it was an open space with only one pathway. On the left and right of the pathway was a thick forest. The tree had a huge trunk with heavy foliage.

When one looked at the direction of the forest, they hardly knew what was inside the forest since the huge tree blocked their view. They needed to go inside the forest to know what was happening inside the forest.

Meanwhile, there was only one pathway which leads to another checkpoint. Auron passed the second checkpoint smoothly, since the soldier who guarded at the front already informed what was happening. Auron also didn't hide his name which made the soldier at the second checkpoint allowed him to move.

After passing the second checkpoint, Auron continued following the pathway until he arrived at the third and last checkpoint. At this checkpoint, the guard was heavier and there was even steel fence with electric wire on it.

Auron also passed this checkpoint smoothly. He had calculated if one walked slowly from the entrance at the front up to this third checkpoint with normal human walking speed, they would need around 30 minutes to arrive at this third checkpoint.

The soldier at the third checkpoint opened up the gate for Auron and made way for him. Auron walked passed the gate and saw for the first time since he arrived at the military entrance, a flood of humans.

There were a lot of soldiers at this place. This huge and wide place even looked small compared to the amount of soldiers gathered here. Auron could see some soldiers talking to each other while some other soldier doing some stretching for warming up.

This huge gathering of soldiers even made Auron difficult to move past the crowd. He was like a lost little kid in a crowded market. Auron was shocked and confused looking at the situation. He knew that as a military base, a lot of soldier gathering was a normal thing. However, this huge amount of soldiers made no sense. Auron even began thinking that there would be another important war.

Auron shocked and confused looked was no escape from the attention of the others around him. Some of them giggled to this newbie while others ignored him and continued what they were doing.

”Hey, you must be a new recruited!” One of the guys called up to him.
