The Azure Longsword

Chapter 134: Overblown

Views:

The intensity of this wave of official publicity soon exceeded Ask's expectations.

The next morning, when Ask came out of Hearth Island, he heard a noisy noise outside.

Although the barracks were theoretically divided into rooms for the Blue Sword, the City Guards, and the Spartans, the City Guards were stationed on the top floor 24 hours a day, and the Spartans seemed to have their own quarters, so that the large bunk bed outside was always empty, with only Hood living there.

And no one knew where this kid went so early in the morning.

The person in charge of guarding the books in the room today was Eleanor. She was sleeping soundly with the books in her arms, her bright golden hair spread out on the pillow, and she was mumbling something like "protecting everyone" in her sleep.

Ask stared at her beautiful sleeping face, well, it’s better not to disturb her.

He left the barracks room and came to the large bunk bed, and realized that the noise came from a farther door.

Leaving the barracks again, he followed the sound to the stairwell and saw a group of strangers gathered at the stairwell below the barracks. Hood was busy trying to maintain order.

When Ask appeared at the top of the stairs, the crowd erupted in an excited shout:

"Cangqing Sword Saint!"

Ask:

ha

Immediately afterwards, the citizens below began to frantically take out their mobile phones to take pictures, and the sound of "pa pa pa pa" was heard everywhere.

"What's going on?" Ask looked at Hood in confusion.

As a professional player in his previous life, he would occasionally be recognized and surrounded by fans when he went out, so Ask was very calm about such small situations.

In the eyes of the onlookers, it seemed to have become some kind of "master style".

After Hood's explanation, Ask finally understood.

You guys are famous!

Starting from 11 o'clock last night, the Crusaders at the foot of the mountain began continuous artillery bombardment, causing panic among the citizens, who were unable to sleep in the middle of the night due to the vibrations and loud noises.

(Most of the girls were resting on Hearth Island, so they were not affected)

What to do if you have insomnia? Get up and watch TV, play with your phone, or watch CM.

Coincidentally, a late-night variety show in Olin City, in conjunction with the official publicity campaign, produced a segment about the activities of the Cang Qing Sword mercenary group. It successfully gained this wave of traffic and also greatly spread the fame of the Cang Qing Sword in the city.

To what extent did this variety show exaggerate the Blue Sword? You can tell from the nicknames they gave to each person.

Giving nicknames, as a traditional repertoire of the lower-class Cyrene people, can be traced back to the ancient Cyrene mythological heroes of the First Age, such as Oedipus the "filial son" (this man killed his father and married his mother), Jason the "loyal man" (this man abandoned his wife), Odysseus the "honest man" (the proposer of the Trojan Horse, known for his many schemes), and so on.

In addition to satirizing mythological heroes, emperors of all dynasties were also included in the list of nicknames.

For example, John II, who was short and ugly, was nicknamed "the Handsome Man"; and Leo VI, who suffered a defeat, was nicknamed "the Wise Man", and so on.

Because of this, Ask is completely indifferent to the nicknames of the people of Sirius. If these guys give him a nickname like "President" or "Producer" like Hood did (to mock the fact that his group is full of pretty girls), then he will never be able to clear himself from the blame.
