lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!

After a while, I can see the harbor on the shore and the densely packed ships in the harbor, one after another, like wooden walls.

"There are so many boats, it seems that it is not worse than Ephesus!" Zantiparis exclaimed, but Agarcia did not speak. He found that after leaving Turri for more than a month, the port was again Obvious changes have not only expanded the area and increased the number of piers, but also built breakwaters.

At this moment, a patrol boat greeted them and motioned them to stop.

"I am Agarcia, the veteran of the Tua League Senate, and I want to disembark at the pier in the city of Turri!" Agarcia stood on the bow of the ship with a majestic appearance, which made these mercenaries enviable.

The captain of the maritime patrol must be a citizen of the Union. Even if the dozens of senators in the Senate have not dealt with, they still have an impression. The captain motioned to bring the patrol ship closer, after careful examination. After confirming that there was no doubt, he respectfully saluted and said loudly: "Dear Agarcia veteran, Midorades, the captain of the Alliance Maritime Patrol, salutes you! You must have been out of the Alliance for a while?"

"Yes, I left before September and went to Ephesus, only then came back."

"No wonder you didn't know that the alliance is now called the Dionian City-State Alliance, not the Tua Alliance!"

"What?! Changed the name! Why?!" Agarcia asked in surprise.

"Because the Alliance has taken Niutum, we have another city, and the name Turri-Amendorara Alliance is no longer applicable. Not only that, Laos has also become our alliance. Lord Daves, he has fulfilled his promise, and we no longer have to worry about the aggression of the Lucanians!" Midolades said with excitement.

Taking Niutum, Raos became an alliance, and the alliance changed its name! Agarcia did not expect that so many things would happen after he left the league for just over a month, as if he suddenly became a stranger. He could not wait to return to the city right away, but the patrol boat was still blocking the front: "My lord, today the Alliance held a triumphal ceremony in Turei for the generals and soldiers who returned from the victory in Lucania to celebrate the victory! To prevent accidents, the Alliance stipulates that No ships are allowed to enter the Krati River, you may only have to disembark at the port.” Midolades tilted his head to look at the mercenaries behind Agarcia, and reminded: “In addition, the Union also stipulates that in addition to Union citizens and Prepared citizens and invited VIPs can enter the city to observe the ceremony. Gentiles and freedmen can only watch outside the city. This is also for safety!"

Although Agarcia is disappointed, he also knows that the Alliance is justified in doing this. He smiled reluctantly: "Thank you, I will go to the port and disembark immediately. Has the triumph started?"

"It shouldn't be there yet, you guys can catch up."

As soon as the patrol boat left, mercenaries rushed over and surrounded Agarcia.

"Agarcia, you didn't lie to us, you really became a nobleman of the city-state!"

"Dear Agarcia, when will we be like you?!"

"Congratulations to the Alliance of Dionia for taking another city! Agarcia, how strong is your Alliance of Dionia in Greater Greece now?"

Faced with a pair of envy and surprise eyes, Agarcia’s vanity was greatly satisfied. To Timathon’s question, he proudly answered: "I told you before that the alliance has Turey. , Amendorara, now owns Niutum, and two subsidiary city-states of Laos and Castellon. These are real big cities, each with its own towns and villages, especially Turri, its land area is not less than that of Attica in Athens, but it is far more fertile. Moreover, there is a large amount of surplus land in the alliance, which lacks people to cultivate. As long as we have enough citizens, then our strength lies in Great Greece is definitely unmatched!"

"Then what are we waiting for, hurry up to see Davers!" everyone yelled anxiously.

The merchant ship entered the port according to the pilot’s instructions and docked at the pier.

As soon as I got out of the dock, I was stopped by a patrol. It turned out that the property that Tima Song and the others had looted was replaced with money. Except for the armor and shield spears carried by them, the patrol believed that dozens of them all carried weapons, especially when the triumphant ceremony was about to be held, it was very dangerous. Even if Agarcia acts as a veteran of the Senate, he is still required to deposit his weapons, otherwise he cannot enter the territory of the Alliance.

Everyone reluctantly put their weapons back on the merchant ships. Faced with the grievances of the mercenaries, Agarcia had to explain: “Now there are few citizens in the Alliance, and too many freedmen and Gentiles have poured into the Alliance. There are fights and troubles, so strict requirements are required for the safety of the alliance!"

The complaints of some mercenaries are still unabated, but leaders like Timathon, Crianno, and Zantiparis are silent: For them who are used to being free and loose, Agarcia has traveled many times. Remind them, “When you arrive in the alliance, you must abide by the laws and regulations and don’t cause trouble, because the alliance’s laws are very strict!” Most of the dozens of people who followed Agarcia are mercenary leaders and team officers, who are relatively law-abiding. Before, they were a little disapproved of Agarcia's words. At this moment, they were so excited that they were poured cold water, which made them realize that even the guarantee of Agarcia, who is the veteran of the Union Senate, does not work. The people here are serious in carrying out the task. The degree can be imagined.

But in fact, they have forgotten that their mercenary status has long been recruited in other city-states, but they cannot be allowed to enter the city.

The port has indeed changed a lot. Not only has its scope expanded, docks and houses have increased, but a city wall has been built with soldiers on guard patrolling it. Agarcia and his party have to pass through checkpoints under the wall to enter the territory of the Alliance.

The sentry on the level asked them carefully and registered before allowing them to pass.

Tima Song frowned and said: "Agarcia, you have strict requirements here. It is better for us to follow you. I am afraid that the other brothers who are scattered later will be in trouble!"

"It doesn't matter, I will come here every day to pick them up." Agarcia also thought of this question, and he said simply. Three thousand people are not a small number, and everyone has expressed their intention to join Agarcia to welcome other companions.

Turiyi's market is on the side of the city wall, and it has also expanded a lot. There are also more buildings next to the market: weapons shops, cloth shops, vehicle repair shops, boat rigging workshops, gold and silver processing workshops, pack animals rental shops, bakeries, hotels, restaurants... but it should be very noisy. The market, at this moment, seems a bit deserted.

Agarcia and the others bypassed the market and came to the side of the boulevard. Dozens of coachmen gathered around: "It's going to see the triumphal style. It's about to start. If you go in a carriage, you can catch up!... …" Coachmen persuaded you in a word.

The price of one opal at a time is fairly cheap. Although the market is only a few miles away from Turri, the mercenaries are still willing to experience the feeling of riding a carriage.

Running on a flat avenue, the carriage was fast and stable, and they were still indulged in the pleasure of this speed, when a huge noise came in front.

The predecessor of Tuliyi City was full of people, cheers were thunderous, and only one voice was resounding across the earth: "Come on!!! Come on!!!..."

Just to the west outside the city of Tuliyi, facing the gentle rising sun, a golden dragon marches here...

The coachmen all stopped driving. There were too many people to squeeze in front, but you can still see the crowds when standing on the carriage:

The standard bearer who walked in the front of the team was the bravest and most outstanding soldier in this expedition. Rizaru did not expect that he would get this honor, so that until now, he has a steady face. He kept smiling and closed his mouth from ear to ear, and he was about to reach the crowd. He straightened his chest again and raised the banner of the legion high. The cheers, exclamations, and compliments gathered together, and rushed towards him like a magic medicine. His whole body is instantly full of power...

Tima Song squinted his eyes and saw that the majestic and mighty bronze statue of Hades holding a double-stranded fork at the top of the banner towering in the air, which reminded him of the time "Daves is the **** of Hades" The rumors of the favored ones.

Looking at the four golden characters of "First Legion" embroidered on the flag and four golden five stars, and listening to Agarcia's explanation of its origin, everyone in Timasong couldn't help feeling a little lost.

Following the Legion’s standard bearer is another military flag. Under the sacred statue of the **** of death with wings spread out, the flag is embroidered with the eight golden characters of "Second Battalion First Company". It is the fourth team, but considering the perception of the people, Daves gave the honor of the first team to the city to the first company of the second team. After all, they also worked hard and made a lot of achievements, and no one had any objection based on their achievements in guarding the Rahe Fortress. . As compensation, Daves gave the honor of the Legion's standard bearer to the Lucarians.

The soldiers stepped vigorously, entered the crowd with their heads high, enjoying the cheers of the people...

The mercenaries watched them intently, the layman watched the excitement, the expert watched the doorway, Zantiparis said to Agarcia: "Your soldiers are good, their fighting spirit and momentum are good!"

"But worse than us!" Kriano said unconvincingly.

Agarcia couldn't say anything, just smiled.

At this moment, Tolmid exclaimed: "Look at these soldiers, they should not be Greeks!"

Agarcia looked intently: The flag held high by the second team entering the crowd was embroidered with "Fourth Battalion of the First Army".

When did the league have a fourth team? With doubts, Agarcia looked at the appearance of the soldiers behind, and at the same time he thought that the city of Niutum in Lucania was captured, and he understood the reason why Daves did this: "That's Luca. Leah people, since they can become legionaries, I am afraid they are already Union citizens."
