The leading soldier looked Luo Chen up and down and then said: "This is Hebai City. Every outsider must register at the City Lord's Mansion. Why did you enter without registering?"
"Register? What registration? There didn't seem to be any mention of this when I entered the city!" Luo Chen was slightly stunned, as he hadn't heard of such a rule before. Nonetheless, he respectfully replied, "Sorry, I have just arrived in Hebai City and am not yet familiar with the rules here. Could you please tell me how to register?"
The soldier listened to this and remained extremely cold in expression.
Luo Chen followed the soldier to the City Lord's Mansion, where he saw rows of soldiers in armor standing in front of the mansion, holding spears with serious expressions.
The architecture of the City Lord's Mansion was simple yet dignified, with a plaque hanging above the tall gateway, engraved with the words "Hebai City Lord's Mansion."
