The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 1468 - 423: All Sorts of Monsters and Devils Have Arrived (Part 3)

That's precisely why Thunder City, which was once the Newbie Village, seems to have become yesterday's news, fading out of players' focus, and those staying in Thunder City seem like lonely old folks.

But today's situation seems somewhat different. It's the first time [One Punch One Whining Monster] has seen Thunder City citizens, who are normally crazed by stocks, so enthusiastically participating in war efforts.

"War mobilization? Damn, what are they trying to do? Going to fight the Demon King?" Seeing the long queue of people, [One Punch One Whining Monster] couldn't help but rub his hands excitedly.

Hurry up!

His broadsword is already itching for action!

[Village Headmaster Wang] walked over to the edge of the square's notice board, touched his chin as he stared at the posted announcement, and looked slightly surprised.

"Duke Campbell has decided to send troops to assist Twilight Province... Oh my, is this a new activity?"

As soon as they heard about a new activity, the players gathered around the notice board instantly got excited.

After a struggle, with everyone sharing their bits and pieces, they finally managed to put together half a translator and understood the notice's content.

And once they understood, everyone couldn't help but exclaim "Holy crap!"

"Wow! Quest rewards... a knight title and land!?"

"Holy crap! There's compensation for those who die in battle!? What a good deal!?"

Fighting for the Demon King wasn't this gratifying!

As everyone knows, loyalty to Lord Demon King comes at a cost, unless it's a special in-game event; otherwise, dying not only costs Contribution Points but also money!

Although it's deducted in Joss Paper, that was also earned through their hard work in quests!

Seeing the rewards so generous, the onlooking players couldn't help but show eager expressions.

[One Punch One Whining Monster] swallowed his saliva, eagerly saying.

"Why don't we try participating too?"

These words immediately resonated with countless players, they hadn't had an opportunity for antics in a long time!

This opportunity can't be missed!

"Great idea!"

"Let's try it out! From today, I am a true Campbell citizen!"

"Oh oh oh! For the Duke! For the Princess!"

"Damn it, you traitors, do you remember you're the henchmen of Lord Demon King... wait, count me in!"

Everyone quickly agreed, cheerfully squeezing into the registration line.

Since the Campbell Duchy didn't have any identity verification rules, the recruiting sergeant didn't bother confirming their identities, and they indeed walked up to the registration desk.

The conscription officer, busy to no end, didn't even glance up, just asked as people approached.

"Name! Specialty!"

"ID... ahem! Whining Monster!" [One Punch One Whining Monster] thumped his chest, stammering in Imperial Language, "Specialty, being personably lengthy!"

Writing on the form, the conscription officer nearly snapped his feather pen.

What does that even mean, personably lengthy?

Annoyed, he looked up wanting to see which ignorant fool was causing trouble, only to see a strapping six-foot man glaring at him.

Compared with the surrounding malnourished layabouts, this guy really stood out like a crane among chickens.

Sturdy, strong, person... indeed pretty lengthy!

This is a prime candidate for the frontline!

In Campbell's army, there's a special unit called grenadier, needing precisely such tall and strong lads.

They advance under gunfire from both friend and foe alike and, when within 60 steps, fiercely smash clay pots filled with black gunpowder toward enemy phalanxes!

The conscription officer's eyes lit up as if he found a treasure, and not minding the ungraceful answer to his question, he grinned widely and wrote his name on the form.

"Whining Monster...right? What a peculiar name, are you truly Campbell?"

"I-I-I..." [One Punch One Whining Monster] couldn't help but stutter; his common language was still unfamiliar, he had practiced the prior sentence in advance, but hadn't even heard this sentence before, naturally not knowing how to respond.

Just as he was sweating profusely, the conscription officer seemed even more anxious, afraid he'd back out, he grabbed his hand and pressed down his fingerprint on the registration book.

"It doesn't matter, mate, wherever you're from, whether or not you're literate, stuttering or not, whether your brain works well or not—from today you are a Campbell citizen! Congratulations, soldier! Take your badge and uniform and report in!"

The conscription officer stood and shook his right hand, firmly patting his robust shoulder.

Hmm?

Why does the texture feel a bit soft?

Forget it, it's not a big issue!

[One Punch One Whining Monster]returned a sincere smile to the conscription officer, and without thinking grabbed the badge and uniform from beside him, heading off to the nearby gathering point.

Behind him, the conscription officer began to rope in the next able-bodied recruit, shouting.

"Next!"

"Me me me!"

"Name! Spec–"

"ID 'Professional Nuclear Submarine Technician'! I main C, specialize in soloing wild boar forests, never flipped a car! I can tank, bring my own milk bottle..."

"Uh... uh uh, name is... uh, Dragonfly, right? Great, Private Dragonfly, from now on you are also a Campbell citizen."

"..."

"Instance! Instance! Oh oh oh oh!"

"Fubot, right? By Saint Sis... finally, someone who speaks normally!"

The recruitment line kept getting longer.

Moreover, most incredibly, the quality of this batch of recruits was unexpectedly high, not just robust physiques, several were even Transcendent with Bronze Level prowess!

Initially, the conscription officer was puzzled, why don't these impressive folks become Adventurers?

But soon, when one huge fellow shouted "land," his doubts instantly dissolved.

Even mentally challenged folks dream of owning some land.

Watching the group head towards the training camp, feeling moved, he silently prayed for the Campbell Duchy.

By Saint Sis, please don't blame your citizens for their selfishness. Please ensure these intellectually challenged guys stay forever in Twilight Province, becoming battlefield fertilizer.

He truly couldn't imagine these tongue-tied folks achieving military success, even becoming Knight Masters or even Barons one day.

If something like that did happen, he wasn't sure if he would despair...
