After the two parties discussed the matter in a childlike manner at the dinner and basically reached some consensus, soon Gus and Shirji officially arrived in the territory of a certain earl, which is now the so-called "Holy Light". Having established a firm foothold in the city, I no longer have to live a wandering life.
Soon after, when the lord of Kaka City, that is, the bad old man who had a contract with Gus, received Gus's letter and quickly led nearly 10,000 soldiers to join the alliance, Gus then The formation of the 'Holy Light Legion' was officially put on the agenda.
soon!
With the support, strong request and interference of a bad little girl, a cavalry regiment of approximately 3,000 people was formed under the name of the Knights of the Silver Hand. There are also two other infantry combat heavy armored corps, the 'Scarlet Crusade' and the 'Silver Dawn Crusade', each with 3,500 people. That is to say, a total of 10,000 legions have been formed.
Then just like that, after being formed, these three legions were put into intense training in the military camp outside the City of Holy Light, and began to formally learn the new Holy Light doctrine, pray to the Holy Light, and learn how to correctly The Earth uses the Holy Light in various situations.
Among them, the three people who were the first to lead people to follow Crete, namely Farnese, the former leader of the Knights of the Holy Irons, Yasan, the deputy leader, and Serpico, the secretary, respectively obtained Shirji and Anne. The three holy seals were engraved on the back of Gus's hand after his guidance.
then!
The first batch of original paladins of human beings in this world were officially born.
Of course, this first batch of Paladins is headed by Paladin Lord Gus, whose holy light represents 'revenge'; and the holy light of Farnese, the leader of the new 'Silver Hand', represents 'justice'. '; Deputy Captain Serpico's Holy Light certainly represents 'Guardian'; 'Silver Dawn' Captain Clete's Holy Light is undoubtedly 'Holy'; as for the 'Scarlet Crusade' The leader of the group, Yasang, his holy light represents 'punishment'!
Subsequently, under the leadership of the five new generals of the Paladins, more and more people officially began to come into contact with and train the Holy Light, and using the five Paladins as a template, they began to purposefully teach more knights. and the warriors to learn and use the new energy called the Holy Light.
Not long after, some of the best of the three legions of the Holy Light or the talented little bosses awakened on their own within two to three months after training, or obtained the research and development and restoration of the legion witch Shirji. The second mass-produced holy seal was carved out, and he was officially promoted to become a junior paladin.
Just like that, after three months, among the 10,000 people in the entire newly formed Holy Light Legion, even without the assistance of the Holy Seal, those who could sense the Holy Light through daily prayer and training quickly accounted for It has reached one-tenth of the total number of people, which is nearly two thousand people.
That is undoubtedly a gratifying achievement, because, according to that trend, in less than a year, it is estimated that Gus's initial plan, which is to have a purely human legion that can use the Holy Light to fight against the apostles and 'alien' will be formalized. born.
However, when their first phase of training had just ended successfully, and when he was deciding whether to send someone to bring Casca, Rickett, Erica and others together, an unexpected news came. His original plan was instantly disrupted.
It is said...
In Balidanis in the south, the Kusha army led by Emperor Kusha himself suffered a huge defeat at the gates of the city. The one who defeated the Kusha army at that time was actually the 'Eagle' of the 'Eagle Regiment'. Riffis and the apostle knights under his command?
Just a month ago, when an army of 200,000 Kusha surrounded the city of Balidanis, and when the coalition forces of the French King's Hall were almost unable to resist and were about to be annihilated, they, the eagles of the Eagle Regiment, appeared. , the opponent used a few cavalry raids to rarely capture the central army of Emperor Kusha with just one charge. After some threats and negotiations, the opponent finally released the emperor, and the conditions in exchange were : Kusha's army retreated and gave up the siege of Balidanis.
At the same time, there was another news coming together, and that was: the Princess of Mitlan, whose whereabouts had been unknown since the fall of the royal capital, and Sharlut, who was said to have been kidnapped or even killed by Emperor Kusha. The only legal heir of Mitlan actually appeared in the Eagle Group at the same time?
Then, now under the auspices of Princess Salut, in the south, the frightened coalition forces of the French King's Hall Order and the Eagle Group naturally merged together and came under the command of Griffith of the Eagle Group. At present, The army is on its way north, preparing to have a life-and-death battle with the Kusha Emperor who has fled back in embarrassment in the near future.
The two sides of the battlefield have also been chosen, and it turns out to be Wyndham, the terrifying magical city that is said to have been reduced to a dead place and full of fog and demons in Midland!
so!
After receiving and confirming the shocking news, Gus was shocked and could no longer sit still.
However, Gus seems to know that they cannot compete with the Eagle Group now with their own strength, let alone the powerful Eagle Group that has united with the French King's Hall Alliance.
Furthermore, it is really inappropriate for them to conflict with the Eagle Group and Griffith, who have great righteousness and various disguises. That would be very detrimental to their City of Holy Light!
Therefore, he accepted the proposal of Farnese and others and prepared to lead the three thousand knights of the Silver Hand southward overnight to stay near the royal capital of Wyndham and prepare to watch the battle.
Yes, just watching the game, no other plans!
First, they feel that it is necessary to get first-hand information on the victory and defeat of both sides and the battle situation, so that they can do the next corresponding defense or response work.
Furthermore, they have always only known the true combat power of the rumored new 'Eagle Group' and the apostles under its command. Therefore, this time, it is their best to go up close. An excellent opportunity to observe and peek at the enemy's combat capabilities.
In addition, almost all of them are also very concerned about the outcome of that war.
After all, it has been more than a year since the Kusha people invaded Mitlan. Chaos, death, plague, and war have been raging in the land of Mitlan. The situation that almost caused the entire kingdom to fall apart has also continued for nearly a year. It has been a year, and now that they have the opportunity to see that everything will be changed and ended, they are always not willing to miss it.
So, after some preparations, Gus and others hurriedly led the three thousand most elite cavalry and the Knights of the Silver Hand, who also held the largest proportion of Holy Light, left the City of Holy Light and set foot on On the way to Wyndham.
Of course, Gus and others did not rush south directly into the battlefield, but were training while advancing.
Isn’t this?
On the night of the fifth day, since they were all cavalry and almost all of them were one person and two horses, they quickly walked nearly half of the way and had to slow down and start to find a horse halfway along the way. Set up camp in front of the ancient battlefield ruins and prepare for a practical teaching.
"ha!"
(*)
When the army started setting up camp, they were jumping around, and then a certain naughty little girl suddenly appeared when it was completely dark. As soon as she appeared, she jumped directly on the little sister Crete who didn't know what she was doing, and successfully scared her. The other party jumped.
"Ha ha!"
(*)
"Did it scare you?"
(*`)
Under the firelight, Annie, who didn't mind at all how bad her behavior just now was, cheered before making a face at Clete, who was feeling unhappy.
The other person seemed to be whittling something under the firelight just now. However, when she was so frightened, it seemed that he had already whittled something, but fortunately his fingers were not whittled.
"??"
(.)
"Hello!"
(/^▽^)/
"Sister Clete, what are they doing? Aren't they ready to go to bed at night?"
(ω‖)
At this time, Anne also saw that in the distance, outside the military camp, that idiot Uncle Gus, Miss Shirji and a group of knight generals were shouting and arranging for the paladins to face the large area. Attack and defense formations were formed in places like mass graves. Then, many people still drew their swords in their hands, as if they were facing a formidable enemy?
That kind of situation seemed quite rare to Anne.
"I definitely have to sleep, but it will take a while..."
"They are now preparing for actual combat training!"
"Because Brother Gus said that it is night now, and he is going to let Shirji remove the seal on the back of his neck, and then let the cursed brand emit its breath to guide the dead souls in that place to appear, and then, it can be handed over to The Paladins have gone for actual combat training.”
"Just like the night we first met?"
Claire didn't hide anything, she just told her what she knew openly and openly.
After she finished speaking, she thought about it and simply stopped fiddling with the work in her hands. Instead, she and Annie sat side by side on the baggage cart beside the bonfire, swaying their feet together and looking into the distance. The knights were training.
"Our scouts discovered that the movements of the Eagle Regiment coalition were a little slower than expected. After all, they are leading a large army."
"And if we go to Wyndham now, we are afraid that we will face off against the Kusha army, which would not be good. So after discussion, Brother Gus and the others decided to stay here for a few days, which is just the right time. Some training?"
After watching, Clete continued to tell what she knew.
"So it's training?"
(⊙o⊙*)
"Um……"
(′~`●)
"There are indeed a lot of corpses in that place, and there are a lot of undead in it. If you let go of the brand, it will really be a good place."
(lll¬▽¬)
Nodding, Annie just said a few words casually, but didn't make much comment. She just chatted and read with Clete.
soon!
The two of them saw that not long after Gus asked Shirji to open the seal, the sleeping souls actually started to move after hearing the news. Then, densely packed skeletons and decaying zombies actually began to appear one by one. The front of the Knights of the Silver Hand.
Fortunately, the green-haired witch Shirji was prepared in advance. When the undead appeared and attacked in groups, she also completed a certain magic, and then directly used a large circle of enchantment to directly block those undead. At least thousands of undead were trapped in it, and then only a few were released at a time.
And even if there are only a few, even if the formation is set up in advance and the relevant mental preparations are made, even if the witch of the legion says that all the terrible enemies have been trapped and the barrier will definitely not have any problems, However, when they saw those ferocious monsters appearing out of thin air one by one, the paladins, or can only be said to be the quasi-paladin apprentices, couldn't help but burst into chaos and commotion, and finally they were scolded by the officers. Only then could he barely keep his composure.
"It's all taken care of!"
At this time, that Gus took the initiative to step forward while roaring and started his teaching.
"I'll only demonstrate once!"
"Deal with this alien existence!"
"As long as you overcome the fear in your hearts, ordinary weapons can also kill them!"
I saw that he didn't even use the terrifying giant sword behind him. He just took an ordinary soldier's two-handed broadsword and rushed forward, killing those who tried to rush towards him with a few blows. The undead that went and attacked were chopped into pieces.
His whole set of movements can be said to be done in one go, without any sloppy movements at all, as if they have been refined thousands of times.
"Did you see that?"
"They are far less powerful than you think!"
"In fact, these undead are much weaker than apostles or some monsters. If you use holy light, it will be easier to deal with them!"
Then, following Gus's signal, Shirji opened another gap in the barrier, and more monsters poured out.
"like this?"
"Let your weapons be enchanted with holy flames. That's the most basic way to use them!"
But Nagus still didn't use the huge weapon on his back. He first prayed in a pretentious manner, and then the big sword in his hand, which was slightly chipped after just cutting down a few undead, ignited the golden holy light. After Yan Yan, she rushed towards the second batch of undead being released again.
In the blink of an eye, just a few short confrontations, those seemingly terrifying monsters shattered and decomposed under the golden holy light, and some were simply burned to ashes on the ground in an instant. When they touched the holy light, It's like dry firewood dipped in kerosene.
"Now!"
"Let the officers take the lead!"
"Each person should deal with at least ten!!"
"let's start!"
Soon, after the demonstration, the formal teaching began, and of course the first person to take the stage was Farnese, the official paladin and officer who had obtained the Holy Seal.
"Miss!"
"Come on!!"
"Captain!"
"Come on!!"
And when Farnese raised his eyebrows, held the gorgeous dagger in his hand, and began to summon the holy light to fill his body, Shirji released a dozen zombies and skeletons at once, and the opponent did not dare to step back, so he had to force He stepped forward and shouted, fighting those monsters that seemed to be no different from ordinary enemies except for their terrifying appearance, that is, the so-called undead.
"good!"
"that's all!"
"Kill them!!"
"good!"
"here you go!"
Not long after, although Farnese was slightly disorganized, she easily defeated her wave of enemies and won the victory and the cheers of the knights.
"Very good. Captain Farnese's swordsmanship is very beautiful, but there are too many redundant movements!"
"Next!!"
But unfortunately, Gus didn't seem to be very satisfied. He only gave up after a few criticisms and asked the other party to step aside and replace him with the next one.
"Wow!"
"awesome……"
At this time, seeing Farnese winning, even though the two sides were far apart, Crete clapped her hands and cheered quickly.
"??"
(**;)
"Is it great?"
く(^_)ゝ
"Very common, right?"
(゜-゜)
"It's just a dozen corrupted skeletons and zombies. Ordinary farmers who are brave enough should be able to chop them into pieces, right?"
(~)
Anne didn't think it was anything special. Anyway, in her opinion, it was just average. At best, it could only be said to be passable.
"oops!"
"That's already awesome!"
"You don't know that although Captain Farnese was originally the leader of the Knights of the Holy Iron Rope, that position must only be held by a nun. She basically has no fighting ability."
"But now you see, she can deal with a dozen terrifying skeletons alone. That is already amazing."
Hearing this, Clete quickly retorted.
"That's all amazing?"
!!!∑(Дノ)ノ
"ha……"
(lll¬ω¬)
"People are starting to worry about your fighting ability..."
(;′⌒`)
Anne began to murmur quietly.
"correct!"
(°ー°〃)
"They are having so much fun, why don't you go up and play?"
(c)
After a long time, after seeing that Gus' brand had become a training tool for the knights, and that the knights were enjoying it now and no longer as scared as before, Anne suddenly felt strangely facing the knights who didn't seem to be. Claire asked, ready to join in the fun.
"not going."
"I'm still learning swordsmanship, and I'm not very good at fighting. Once the spirit of vengeance is released, it will fall into a coma and it will attack the enemy on its own. There is no need to train!"
"They all say that I am the strongest and the weakest Paladin..."
When talking about her own affairs, Claire couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
"and……"
"I'm a little tired, and I'm a little worried about my father. I don't know how they are doing now."
Then, Claire sighed, and then she hugged her knees and huddled in the car, no longer looking as cheerful as before.
"Is that so?"
(^▽^)
"Then just stay here!"
(゜▽^*)
Annie didn't have a good habit of comforting people, so when she saw that there was nothing more to say, she thought about it, patted her butt and jumped forward.
Now that idiot Uncle Gus and the others can use the cursed brand as a tool to attract 'others' to come to train, and they don't look worried at all. In this way, Anne feels that it is necessary for her to give them A lesson?
Just like...
She secretly found a more powerful guy among the undead, and made those guys jump around for a while.
In that case, it must be fun?
and……
Maybe the effect of military training will be better?
