1800 hours the convoy has finally seen the gates of Ram. The guards stationed at the gates already expected the convoy to arrive, but they still showed a surprised face after seeing a lot of horseless carriages. It is also their first time seeing the big Iron carriage, which they were very amazed.One guard even questioned his comrade, " Hey do you have any idea on how something that big can move fast? "
The guard replied to his comrade, " Why are you questioning me I"m not smart and also definitely not a mage. "
The people in the carriages and wagons, who were lining up for entering the gate, immediately turned their eyes to the convoy. They were amazed by the convoy of horseless carriages that it made them think that a very powerful, wizard or sorcerer might be visiting the city for the festival.
One of the pa.s.sengers of a wagon spoke about the rumors that he heard, " Those carriages might be from the new country that I heard about. I heard rumors about them forming an alliance with this country, so maybe they have those big carriages carrying a tribute to the king. "
Another one spoke his opinion, " Maybe those are just merchants who are able to hire a powerful mage on his caravan, and he decided to set up business here during the festival. "
The wagon became noisy after the pa.s.sengers stared to give their opinions on what the carriages really were about.
The convoy was let in immediately by the guards that were stationed at the gates, every guard that was on duty that day, wanted to know the reason why there are a lot of big horseless carriages arriving, some of the guards asked their superiors but their questions were not answered.
The lead humvee where the commander was in spoke to his sergeant, " Report to command that we have arrived at the destination. "
He then picks up his radio and spoke, " Everyone we will be meeting with the special forces in 15 minutes. "
The convoy stopped at the roadside and all of the soldiers got put and stretched their bodies, after the long drive they did.
Many people on the streets have strange gazes at the newly arrived convoy. Everyone in the streets has mixed feelings about the soldiers, which they don"t know we"re literally soldiers, as they thought that they were mages because every single one of them was carrying an iron staff.
The people will call someone a soldier if they are wearing armor that may be made from leather or plate, it could also be made from iron. Another one is he is carrying a short sword a spear or a bow and arrow. The armor had the insignia of the army or the royal family"s military.
But the people saw, were men in green with almost identical clothes, and we"re ugly looking that if they were standing next to a knight they would look like servants of the knight.
The soldiers notice the gazes of the people but they just ignored their gazes, cause they already got used to it after all the towns they went, the people had the same gazes at them.
After a few minutes, a humvee came near the convoy and a member of the special forces got out to meet the platoon leaders.
The SF soldier went near the two-platoon commanders, and spoke,
" Second lieutenant Barks and Second Lieutenant Loretta, welcome to the Sirius. I will be leading you to your camp, please follow me. "
The soldiers got in immediately to their designated vehicles and moved forward, following the SF member. The soldiers and the organizing members we"re looking at the view of the city.
They saw the flags of the country were being displayed in each household they pa.s.s. Colorful banderitas can be seen above hanging, more banderitas we"re still being hanged by the people. Many temporary stalls can also be seen on the roadside, some were selling street foods, jewelry, clothes, and weapons. There were also stalls that let you play such as archery where you can win prizes and a sh.e.l.l game which is very popular with gamblers.

A giant tent"s top part is also visible, it was the Circus of the Dusk tent, where the Venus and her comrade performers will be performing.
One of the soldiers in the humvee commented, " Well isn"t this place very lively. I guess we can still enjoy ourselves as a tourist if we have the time. "
The SF soldier then spoke after hearing the soldiers comment via radio, " Yeah it is lovely but if you have seen this place before the festival, you would definitely put your gas mask on. "
The convoy continued to travel after a few minutes they have been able to reach their destination, the soldiers saw the special forces and some locals arranging the area of the cultural exchange event.
The soldiers immediately got out of their vehicles as well as the organizers, the platoon commander then spoke to their subordinates.
Second lieutenant Levi Loretta, " Ok men have arrived at our destination, all of you know why we are here, we are here to show the power and capabilities of our countries military. So I will be expecting a good performance during the exhibition, don"t do anything stupid that will make us a laughing stock for their people, show them that we are a force to not be taken easily, so everyone be careful when exploring or speaking with the locals. Am I clear with these men!? "
All of them replied, " Yes Sir! "
Second lieutenant Barks also made a speech, " We have done our mission successfully, that is to escort the convoy safely here. But we are still not finished with our mission, we still need to escort the convoy back to the country and protect the citizens of our country to any threat that might happen here. So men don"t get relaxed yet we still had another job to do, so begin the second phase of the operation. "
The soldiers started to move, they started to scout the area and coordinated with the SF, to know the possible escape routes, danger zones, and advantage defensive position.
Some of the organizers with the soldiers started to build the tents and arranged the place. They even thought of decorating the tables and chairs were the kingdoms n.o.bles will be sitting. They also made tents for different products of the country, the tents we"re designed with the logo of the products.
The organizers also reviewed their planned programs, while lieutenant Levi Loretta"s platoon started to practice again with their demonstration of the weapons.
The locals who were helping were weirded out by the actions of the platoon and thought they were just readying for a stage play.

Dariel just let the guy in while thinking about a solution he came up with, [ Wait why don"t we just nuke those slimes. Wow, I"m a genius, wait a minute why did none of my military officials propose that to me? ]
