Chapter 380

"So fast?" Dudian slightly frowned . He put away the chip and card reader at the back of the small dark cabinet . Dudian put on a coat and opened the door . Dudian saw Neuss waiting by the door: "I'm feeling sick today . Help me get there . "

"Are you uncomfortable?" Neuss was shocked as he said in a hurry: "Master, if you feel unwell I'll immediately call the doctor . . . "

Dudian winked at him and raised his arm .

Neuss suddenly came to understand what Dudian meant and caught his arm to help him . However there were doubts in his heart .

Dudian felt a strange smell as he went down the stais . He saw an officer sitting in the living room and waiting for him . He had three silver medals on his shoulder and seemed to be around forty years old .

The man heard the movements on the stais and looked up to see Dudian who was helped by Neuss . He rose form his chair: "Greetings master Dean . "

Dudian gentle coughed: "Hello . Are you responsible for my protection?"

"I'm the captain of the escort team . My task it to protect you safety and I hope that you will cooperate with us and don't make any dangerous moves . " The man replied .

Dudian sat down on chair next to him and motion him to sit: "How many people in the team?"

Reid replied: "We have 20 people in the team . Master Dean please rest assured that all those are the elite of the elite and top talents in their areas . They would be able to block hundreds of people and can protect your life . "

Dudian nodded: "Did they come too?"

Reid shook his head: "They are waiting for us . I'm here to pick you up . "

Dudian lightly coughed: "My body feels a bit uncomfortable since yesterday . I think its because of the continuous rains . Perhaps I have caught a cold . Is it possible that we go to the battlefield after my body feels a bit better?"

Reid nodded . He has long been aware that Dudian's body seemed to be in poor health . He said: "Of course! Master Dean should stay at home and rest . Do you need doctor? I can call one from the military . "

"No need . " Dudian replied: "I should be able to recover soon . There is war going on and the doctors are very valuable to the military . Let them take care of the wounded soldiers in the front line . They are the ones who needs to be taken care of . "

There was a trace of respect in Reid's eyes: "Master Dean is same as in the rumors . You are kind! Don't worry and notife us whenever you are ready to leave . But I personally think that Master Dean shouldn't be involved in war in the battlefield . It's too dangerous . Although we can protect you but a little slip won't just result as a loss to the Temple but to all of us!"

Dudian lightly coughed: "You are too kind!"

"It's nothing . " Reid shook his head .

Dudian commanded a servant to send off Reid after a moment . Afterwards he went to upstairs and told to Neuss: "Make sure that informants stations at the front line transmit the informtion frequently . We must be the first ones to grasp the news in case the golden wall falls . "

"Yes . "

Another day passed .

The headlines of the morning newspapers were all about situation in the golden wall . The golden wall was dilapidated and crumbling . The barbarians were able to break through from 6 locations but were surrounded by the soldiers . However the situation was not optimistic .

There were news about Dudian's new concept . Additionally there were information that introduced steam rifles and their production process .

Legendary level weapon .

This introduction caused high expectation from countless civilians and nobles . Especially in this tense war there was a need for such a weapon that could shift the tide .

In addition, there were news about establishment of the second line of defense by the Red River . It was reported that few generals died while preparing the defense line .

Dudian went back to the bed after reading the morning news . He was reading a book related to the history of the giant wall of the Silvia . He could sense the sounds of conversation spoken by the servants . From time to time he would hear shouts coming off from the entrance of the castle . He leaned from the bedside window to look at the gate where a large group of people stood by . Most of them were civilians while there were few nobles .

They were cheering and encouraging him in comparison to the previous curses .

Since the publication of the news the people who had come to curse at him had left and disappeared . But instead a large number of people had come over to cheer him on . The servants were surprised and felt happy because of such a change .

Dudian wasn't surprised but felt disturbed . His reading was affected by their shouts .

Dudian got a letter from Neuss at ten o'clock in the morning .

It was information that was sent from the front line . Dudian check it as his eyes narrowed . He said to Neuss: "Notify military that I want to join the battle . "

Neuss's face slightly changed . Previously Dudian had told him that he would set off the moment golden wall collapses . Obviously the military couldn't hold onto the golden wall because of attacks by the barbarians in the rainy weather!

"Yes!" Neuss turned and left .

Dudian skimmed trhough the secret report . He looked up as his brows slightly wrinkled . Dudian whispered: "Both of you . . . Don't let me down . . . " He took out a match from the drawer of the desk by his bed . He lit and burned the secret report and made sure that ashes were left . He took of the quilt and went out of the bed . He put on the silver armor that he had prepared in advance . There was a sword on his waist and his bow and arrows were in his shoulders . He chekced himself once more as he stood in front of the mirror .

He had handsome facial features . His posture was straight and he looked full of vigor just like a good knight .

Dudian was quite satisfied with his appearance as he held onto the helmed and opened the door . The endless sounds of clanking metal echoed as he moved down the stairs .

Servants were surprised to see him wearing such a armor . Some of the young girl maids blushed but didn't dare to look at his eyes .

"Master Dean . Are you setting off??"Jake almost stumbled as he went towards Dudian .

Dudian nodded slightly and patted his shoulder: "Old patriarch will be in your care . "

"Yes, yes . " Jake replied . Dudian was full of majesty in his eyes after he had become a master .

Dudian nodded as he called the servant to bring his raincoat . He put it over his armor like a cloak .
