Seeing that Mo Shuwan and the others had dripped blood onto the sign, Cheng Hua reluctantly cut his finger and squeezed a drop of his precious blood onto the sign. The sign quickly absorbed the blood, and at the same time, their names appeared on it.
The soldier in charge of recording checked their names in the logbook and said indifferently, "Go to the left to collect your personal supplies. Once you're in the Fifth Legion, you're part of the Fifth Legion. You'll have to learn and understand the rules of the Fifth Legion yourselves. From now on, you are not allowed to do anything that would tarnish the reputation of the Fifth Legion, or you will be killed without mercy."
"Heh, 'kill without mercy'? Do you really think you're some kind of local tyrant?"
Cheng Hua's words were ignored again. He couldn't help but curse under his breath, glaring angrily at the backs of the two soldiers who had already turned and left. "Can you really stand being this humiliated?"
Mo Shuwan looked helpless. "This is a legion, so it's normal for them to have some rules."
After registering and receiving their ID tags, Mo Shuwan and her group followed two soldiers. The neat rows of tents they had seen before were nowhere to be found. Apart from the people making a fuss, the place was practically empty. There was nowhere to shelter from the wind and rain within sight. Judging from the reactions of the people around them, it was clear that they would probably be living here from now on.
On the far left of the square, a similar line of soldiers was also leading the way.
After a moment, Wen Zuo said in a low voice, "The wristbands will probably be confiscated. The people queuing now are probably people who just arrived like us, and some of them are not wearing wristbands."
Upon hearing this, Mo Shuwan withdrew her gaze from other places and turned to look at the front of the line. "Indeed, it seems that we are not the only passengers on this bus who have come here this time."
"Of course it can't just be us. The warning bell has already rung, and it rang a full eight times. Anyone who is strong enough will be selected and sent to the various legions."
"This is the tenth fortress. Does that mean we don't need to go to the battlefield for the time being?"
Just as Chen Jiaxu asked the question, a burst of mocking laughter rang out from the people in front of them. They weren't passengers on the bus and didn't have wristbands on their wrists.
"What are you laughing at?"
"What, you guys are idiots and you won't let others laugh at you?"
"Who are you calling an idiot? Did you just eat shit?"
"Quiet!"
After being repeatedly reprimanded by several soldiers, Cheng Hua curled his lip, looked at the guy who still hadn't turned around, and said loudly, "I'll remember you."
"Ha, I need you to remember this, you idiot."
Cheng Hua didn't say anything more, but added another person to his kill list. He thought about it carefully and realized that there seemed to be five people on the kill list. It was time to find an opportunity to get rid of these guys to make room for the new ones. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing to have them waiting in line.
Despite the long queue, the process was very efficient; Mo Shuwan and her group were served in less than five minutes.
"Six, gray-level soldiers."
Several soldiers responsible for distributing supplies stood nearby, their faces cold as they pulled out six backpacks from the bottom, each with a gray wooden piece hanging from it. After the backpacks were taken, the wooden piece was removed and handed to the two soldiers who had greeted them.
The two soldiers considered their mission complete once they got the wooden pieces. Of course, they were unwilling to stay in what they considered a smoky and chaotic place any longer. They didn't even glance at Mo Shuwan and the others before hurriedly leaving with the wooden pieces.
"Take off the bracelet!"
While queuing, I saw other passengers being asked to remove their wristbands, and I saw that they did indeed remove them. The wristbands that they couldn't remove before seemed to have no binding force at this moment, and the items in the storage space allowed them to take them out right now.
Although they didn't understand why the passengers had to remove their wristbands, they were now on someone else's turf and knew nothing about it. After taking everything out of their storage space, they tentatively removed their wristbands.
Mo Shuwan held the bracelet up for a long time, but the soldier opposite her didn't take it. She frowned. "Don't you want it?"
The soldier concealed his surprise and took away the ropes binding Mo Shuwan and the others. "You can set up your tents anywhere in the square, but you are not allowed to leave the square area. Otherwise, it will be considered a violation of military regulations and you will be dealt with according to military law."
"We have to figure out military regulations on our own?"
The soldier glanced at the backpacks in their hands; clearly, the military regulations were inside.
"Captain...you should take a look around."
After Chen Jiaxu's reminder, Mo Shuwan turned her head and noticed that everyone who had been busy with their own things was now looking at them, or more accurately, at the things at their feet.
She looked down and quickly understood why they were staring at her so intently. On the ground were a pile of valuable items that Mr. Song had swindled from the various managers of the tenth fortress. Anyone with a bit of knowledge could tell that each item was quite expensive.
Mo Shuwan bent down to pick up the monitoring jade pendant scattered among the items, and casually picked up the Hope Egg with one hand, looking at Yun Chenjing, "Do you have anything else on your side that can store items?"
As soon as the last word was spoken, Yun Chen paused to think and was about to answer when Wen Zuo reminded Mo Shuwan, "You have another ring there."
Mo Shuwan then remembered the ring that Mr. Song had given her to hold these things. She didn't know how much space was inside the ring yet, but she still tentatively stuffed things into it first. "Bring your things over here as well. If you can fit them in, then put them in. If you can't, then put them with Yun Chenjing."
After saying that, she turned to look at Yun Chenjing and asked, "Is everything alright?"
