Aiken, who was using shoveling a mound of dirt to fill a sack, could only sigh as he used his forearm to wipe the sweat from his forehead.


    "I don''t understand how these bags of dirt can be used for our training. Do you have any idea what function they can have Lieutenant Drew."


    Drew, who was closing a sack full of dirt, only gave Aiken a quick nce before putting the closed sack on a wooden wheelbarrow.


    "I have not the slightest idea why it is going to upy them, but due to the weight and size they may serve as obstacles, but we cannot be sure of it either.


    You have no idea Lieutenant Wally? "


    Wally, who was using a pick to loosen the ground, stopped for a moment and with his hand on his hip turned his head to see Drew and Aiken.


    "From what I have been able to see in the early mornings during the training of the warriors, it seems that the sacks are used as protection tools and to create defenses.


    Possibly in the construction that we are doing of the trench, some ces use them or we simply may have to make some safe areas with them.


    But either way it is certain that all thend that we have been taking out of this trench will be used for something. "


    When he finished speaking, he held his pick again as he continued to loosen the earth blow by blow.


    Drew and Aiken, having their answer, only continued with their work because they could not stop for a long time because they could be punished ording to the regtions.


    Einar, who was watching them work, could only stroke his mustache while giving some orders to the ves to ce the sacks.


    "Remember to arrange the bags correctly, because a single mistake could be fatal for all of you when you are doing the training.


    These sacks will be your line of life because you must learn to advance chestnd while someone will be firing crossbow bolts.


    Delta team how the construction of the wooden obstacle is going, I want it today ves. "


    The Delta team lieutenant stopped using his hammer and turned to put his feet together and salute Einar.


    "Herald Einar, the construction of the obstacle to go up and down stairs is in good progress.


    The wooden base is already assembled and sand is being ced inside while using wooden boards to close the walls.


    We hope to finish this obstacle in two hours, but we could finish sooner if the Epsilon team increases their production of wooden nks. "


    Hearing the lieutenant, Einar began to walk to where the Epsilon team members were working.


    The Epsilon team lieutenant was under pressure because even though they were working to the best of their ability, he knew he was not meeting the demand for wooden nks.


    When Einar arrived at the ce, he could see them working the best they could, so with a smile on his face, he approached them to teach them how to use the tools more efficiently.


    While Einar was still working the entire Epsilon team, the Gamma team was having its own problems digging through the trench as they found in one part what appeared to be the bones of a strange creature.


    So Edric asked hispanions to stop, as he had to inform the herald of what they had found.


    With no time to lose, Edric came out of the trench and started to run towards where Einar was. All the members of the different teams looked curiously at how Edric ran.


    Because they didn''t know why the Gamma team lieutenant was running in such a surprising way.


    "What do you think happened for Lieutenant Edric to run so fast without worrying about anything?"


    Drew shook his head "A lot could have happened because he''s the one in charge of digging in the dirt, we''ll just have to wait to see what happened."


    Einar, who was using a handsaw, looked curious as a lieutenant ran towards him. That lieutenant was Edric the of the Gamma team.


    When Edric arrived with Einar, he paused for a moment while catching his breath. After a few seconds he raised his head and looked seriously at Einar.


    "We found the bones of a strange creature that looks like a dragon."


    Einar frowned as those words brought some uncertainty to him.


    <em>''It shouldn''t be a real dragon, but considering how strange this ce is, I wouldn''t be surprised.''</em>


    The entire Epsilon team just sighed and decided to continue their work as Einar walked away, as they couldn''t afford to stop.


    After following Edric to the trench they were digging, he carefully entered and realized that they were advancing at a good speed.


    With the process of digging the earth, which should not have problems because the climate was already hot so the ground should not be frozen.


    After advancing through the trench, he could see an area that was partially excavated. In it he could see the skull and wings of what appeared to be a fossil.


    Crouching down, Einar looked more closely at the skeleton and while a smile formed on his face, because even if he was not a paleontologist, he knew that it was possibly the bones of a pterodactyl.


    Using his hand he began to traverse the elongated bone of the skull <em>''From the shape it should be a pterodactyl, but I can only guess.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>The only good thing is that my wife''s taste for dinosaurs seems to be helping me, but due to the quality of the bones and the condition of the corpse it should be a specimen in good condition.</em>


    <em> </em>


    <em>I think I''ll need Seren''s help to find a skilled enough craftsman to be able to ce gold thread on the bones to support each bone on a ceiling and reveal the pterodactyl in all its glory. ''</em>


    After looking at it for a few more minutes, Einar got up and looked at Edric "I want you and your team to divert the trench construction to the left as this ce will be off limits.


    Any bone or new corpse that you find I want you to inform me, because those bones are part of the history of our people and deserve to be preserved.


    But as a preview you should know that these bones are not dragons but are bones of a creature that lived millions of years ago in an era where humans were nothing more than little rats.


    In the future, I will exin something called evolution, but you will have to wait a long time for me to do it.


    At the moment, I would like you to send any member of your squad to look for Seren, who should be in the great hall.


    Also that Kassia, Helmi and the Jarle, because I want them to see this


    Is it clear Lieutenant Edric? "


    Edric gave a military salute and began ordering his troops to start scrabbling to the left side.


    For his part, Einar decided to use his hands to carefully remove the dirt that covered the fossil that he assumed was a pterodactyl.


    Edric, after giving the orders to hispanions, he could only continue with his work because he had many questions from what Einar meant that we were rats.


    Just like what happened to those animals that lived millions of years ago.


    All he knew was that from the size of the bones he could assume that the beast was huge, so his imagination could only imagine a kind of giant bird that attacked human beings.


    Those who were hiding in tunnels or anywhere else, it never crossed his mind that Einar was literally saying that humans were rats.


    After a while, Seren, Kassia, Helmi and Sven arrived in the trench, who wanted to see the bones they had found.


    Seeing that his family was already at the scene, he gave Edric an order to take a break.


    Edric, after making the military salute, began to move hispanions out of the trench, because he did not intend to disobey a direct order.


    When Edric left, he decided to sit on the floor near where Lt. Wally and the Beta team leaders were working.


    Drew, who looked at Edric resting, could only frown, "What did you find, Lieutenant Edric, we only saw you run and take Herald Einar to the trench toter see how his family arrived."


    Edric, who is enjoying his rest,y down on the ground and gave Drew a look "We found the bones of a flying creature that lived millions of years ago.


    While we lived like rats, the size of the bones seems to be that the creature was gigantic.


    Of course the herald could have said it differently. Anyway, this was the only thing I understood from the talk he gave me.


    He also mentioned something about evolution, but I have no idea what he meant by that although he mentioned that he would teach us in the future. "


    Aiken, who had heard everything imagined within his mind, a kind of dragon that destroyed everything in its path while humans had to hide to avoid being eaten.


    "What a harsh life our ancestors must have had to live like rats. I can only feel a little sorry for them."


    Wally nodded after hearing Aiken''s words. "It must have been a real hell moreplicated than any of our lives.


    Good thing those flying beasts died.. I couldn''t imagine anything like that living among us. "
