Chapter 31 Chapter 2908 Leaving home means joining the army
In the year 573 of the Holy Shield Calendar, Eryuan set off with the letters from the Karal mages and began a new journey.
In their letters of recommendation, the mages of Kalal concluded that Eryuan, a graduate mage, was "quick in mind and full of vitality."
In short, what the Karar mages mean to the kingdom is: there are no "inferior products" among us who come out, so we can make money.
As a student who has been studying in Kalar for one year, Eryuan is like a hairy crab that has been soaked in the water of Yangcheng Lake for a few days. His worth has doubled. When he came, he was wearing linen clothes, and when he left, he was already wearing tight-fitting cotton velvet jackets and chest protectors.
, and the grass green cloak on his body.
The green cloak helps to hide, and can be used as a quilt to keep warm at night. Of course, it does not have the magical effect of assisting meditation and restoring magic power. As for the weapons on the body, there is a short bow and a dagger.
Eyuan, who is easily satisfied with this equipment, thinks that Kalal treats him well. Eyuan: When I left the village, I didn't even have novice clothes.
On the way to his new job, Eryuan met a caravan, spent two silver coins to hire a car, and headed towards the Kingdom of Lunos together.
Along the way, Eryuan looked at the flowers, plants and trees on the roadside, and was confused for a moment in a daze. "Change the world?" Eryuan doesn't have much idea at the moment, he just wants to live a meaningful life.
In the bonfire at night, Eryuan held his own short bow, and by controlling the phase of the bow string to make the tension different, he could vibrate out several notes. Eryuan used the technique of playing cotton to start playing a song for everyone.
"A smile spreads across the sea".
After the performance, Er Yuan was already considered a bard. One of the caravan members, Gu Liang, kissed him after dancing. Before Er Yuan could react, he kissed him on the cheek. Er Yuan was taken advantage of.
Yuan smiled stupidly.
…The journey was very peaceful. Some petty thieves did not intercept the caravan after seeing its size...
Lunos Iron Stone Fortress, this city is a large military camp. The city wall is made of various stones piled up and fused together using the stonemelting technique.
Eryuan waited outside the fortress for an hour. As the bell on the bell tower rang, the city gate fell with the click of the mechanical sling. When the suspension bridge that could allow two carriages to run parallel fell, the huge iron gate
Eyuan's pupils dropped with great pressure. The metal on both sides of the city gate was thicker than a horse's leg.
During the interrogation by the city gate official, Eyuan took out the ID card that Karar gave him. Of course, the ID was useless at the gate, and they didn't recognize it. They could only see that Eyuan cast a spell on the city wall and carved "Here comes this day."
When "swimming", the magic power flashed between the fingers, and he quickly informed his superior.
A civil servant who looked like the lord's affairs officer, after confirming that Eryuan was a spell caster from Kalar, took Eryuan to the mysterious holy place in the fortress.
Eryuan entered the mysterious hall where spellcasters were trained in this city. The model imitating a celestial body in the center also began to rotate, and a new rotating star lit up.
With the twinkling of this new star, Eryuan also felt a magical connection. It marked the city's mage organization's recognition of Eryuan's employment.
Eryuan was very happy in his heart: "Hey, there is also a system here."
During the rotation of this building structure, it will inject enough magic power into the casters in the military camp, and allocate magic power to every spell caster stationed here. And each spell caster knows through the star spinning on the mysterious holy land.
own magic quota.
As a new mage, Eryuan was treated well by the city lord. At least at dinner, a chicken was placed in front of Eryuan's table. In this medieval era, this was already the greatest sincerity of the lord, Corporal Lixian.
.
It's just this chicken! Eyuan stared at the unplucked feathers and the protruding butt of the chicken, wondering if he should braise it?
However, Eryuan looked at the enthusiastic host and felt that now was not the time to show off his cooking skills.
After eating this meal, Eryuan decided to make some homemade sauces and side dishes for later use. Eryuan commented: The chicken is so overcooked that it fills the teeth. There is also chicken soup and chicken offal. I won’t throw it out for you, right?
.
The kingdom is very large. Judging from the map, this area to the west of the mainland mountains is almost three to four million square kilometers, and the various territories are dotted on the map. Magicians can only go to each territory by relying on the teleportation array.
Convey the kingdom’s orders.
Therefore, the kingdom has only a feudal system to govern each territory, which requires the lords of various regions to regularly supply troops to the kingdom. The number of military armed forces supplied to the kingdom by lords of various regions is often determined based on the size of the title, and the number of troops ranges from forty to
It ranges from one hundred and fifty people.
This includes mages, infantry, and knights.
The capital area of the kingdom, which is the king's territory, occupies more than 200,000 square kilometers of fertile land, and the total number of troops gathered is only 10,000 or 20,000.
With a radius of two to three million square kilometers, there are only so many people in the Human Center City Corps. Generally speaking, this is similar to the situation of the Saturday Division during the Western Zhou Dynasty in China.
At the beginning, the Zhou Dynasty was not about subduing people, but had a strong military force like European kings. Each Zhou division had 3,000 people, a total of six divisions, until King Zhou Zhao conquered the south. As a result, in 977 BC, King Zhao of Zhou attacked Chu and the south
After the patrol did not return and were all wiped out in the Han River, they had to start exporting the ideology of "ethics" and relying on the power of the princes. As for how the Sixth Division was destroyed? The gang of old men from the ancient Jingchu Kingdom suppressed the Zhou Dynasty, but
Not a single word of record was left behind.
Returning to the topic, Eryuan is here now to go to the core area of the kingdom with the lord's third son to shoulder his obligation to guard the kingdom's borders.
Therefore, Eryuan stayed in this fortress for less than a month and had to leave again.
Of course, during this period of time, Eryuan bought a basket of beans and a bag of salt in the market, fermented them, made the beans into tofu and fermented them until they were hairy, then wrapped them in spices and dried them in the sun, put them into ceramic jars, and poured them into
Marinate it with wine and sugar. Jars of bean curd are made.
As a Chinese talent, before going on a business trip, you have to bring some pickles prepared by yourself to go with the meal.
After Eryuan made all preparations for departure, he came to the military camp where swords were being rubbed. A cavalryman came over and issued the military order issued by the Lord of the City. He ordered all team members to pack their luggage immediately and prepare to set off.
Eyuan, who had just arrived at the military camp, was inexplicably placed in the rank of battle mage before he handed in his resume.
Although Eryuan was not sure whether he should accept this order, he still followed the trend and set off with these armored soldiers. This is a feudal army. If you are lucky, you will not be able to hide.
Eryuan took out strips of cloth from his space backpack, tied a set of straps on his calves, and started running. Only later did Eryuan realize that Master Fa could ride in a car, and he ran so fast that no one caught him.
Be a Dharma Master.
The war broke out suddenly. As for who the target is, only the lords in the city know now.
During the march, Eryuan discovered that the commander of the team had consciously allowed several soldiers to walk behind him, or behind him to be precise. Eryuan inquired and learned that this was to protect the mage's safety.
Of course, I'm guessing with a villain's heart: This does not rule out watching at the end of the line to prevent someone from deserting.
It wasn't until he arrived at the station and the night cooled down that Mr. Wei put on his robe to keep warm, that the soldiers recognized him as the spell caster.
Because the robe worn by Eryuan means that it belongs to a spell-casting unit with a special status. There are two symbols embroidered on the robe, indicating two primary skills: healing and dispersion. Soldiers with a little experience understand the nurse's
importance.
Eryuan knows medical skills, but on the path of a mage, he still adheres to the wild style of going his own way.
Look at Eyuan's style of painting. He has an armed belt (a belt with a buckle) wrapped around his waist. Several slightly larger magnesium bullets similar to grenades are pinned to his chest. There are rows of magic capsules like bullets, like machine gun belts.
It is still hanging on the body, and it is incompatible with the magical world. On the contrary, it is like a military team behind enemy lines.
When Eryuan's troops were walking forty kilometers away from the Iron Stone Fortress of Lunos, they met other teams along the way, and they all walked together. Finally, they arrived at their destination. All the people who rushed to the scene were wearing armors and clanking.
There were six hundred soldiers, forty of whom were heavily armored knights.
The lord with a big black beard is holding a war hammer in the center and shouting to everyone. The lord's armor looks obviously higher-end, it is a very delicate plate armor, and the joints are not chainmails, but small and strong shafts.——
There are fluctuations in the elemental force field on this plate armor.
Master Wei was amazed when he saw this great lord carrying a 30 kilogram hammer like an ordinary person carrying a bag of steamed buns. With this strength and plate armor, even if he went to chop him with a knife, it would still be a scrape. With his own hands
Attacks such as bows, crossbows, and knives cannot break his defense.
The neatly dressed lord, stepping on the aura emitted by the phase, greatly boosted the morale of the regiment.
But it also means that there are enemies of the same level in this battle, and such existences are proper heroic units.
Eryuan looked at his position and felt that he was in the protective formation of the infantry. He was very likely to become the target of the enemy's fire. He immediately wanted to imitate Cao Cao's method of cutting off his beard and abandoning his robe, and tore off his robe.
.
"My people!" The Lord, who was an earl, uttered a bell-like voice, and everyone was refreshed.
Eryuan looked at the halo around his body, and then at the flowing gas surrounding himself and other soldiers. This air flow was close to his body, compacting the armor, as if someone was helping him arrange his clothes.
This is the effect called "Concentration Halo". At this time, a leaf floated down from the air and landed on an ordinary soldier a hundred meters away. The leaf did not stay on his shoulder, but slipped off the armor as if it were slipping.
Sliding away, this lubrication not only allows the leaves to fall, but also makes the weapon slip easily on the target.
This can be regarded as adding a layer of armor to everyone. As the core of the army, the earl will always have this kind of gain as long as he does not die.
The lord pointed his war hammer forward: "The dirty ogres have invaded our territory. Warriors, destroy those ugly monsters!"
Amidst the soldiers' wailing calls, Eryuan also shouted indiscriminately: "Men want to fight."
But in fact, Eryuan was so scared that he decided not to fall behind the team but to stand in the middle of the team.
...After three years of hard work, Eryuan's resume will become brighter. This can be said to be a standard battle mage's growth process...
The army led by Count Lunos is different from the Viscount encountered in the village of Eryuan. Currently, this army has forty heavily armored knights, which is a high-level unit.
In this world, knights are trained from attendants, then to apprentice knights, and then to regular knights. The whole process takes fifteen years. Their strength is five to six times that of ordinary people, and their combat skills are superb. In addition, they will also learn in this systematic education.
Know: battle terrain mapping, finding water sources, being alert to dangers, rationally arranging marches and correct garrisoning. These are the training for grassroots officers.
Especially in this world where "two thousand people" is a large military group, a team of knights with excellent combat skills is quite impressive in terms of combat power.
As the space magic unfolded, rows of tents appeared, and the central tent belonged to the lord.
When the lord finished his speech, a teleportation array flashed in the central tent, and the two archmages jumped here. When they saw the lord, they nodded slightly as a salute, not like ordinary mages.
The two opened the crystal ball and projected a light and shadow map. This search magic can mirror the scene twenty kilometers away.
Eryuan looked at it from a distance, wondering what was shown in the crystal ball. He guessed that there were a large number of ogres gathered. Because the knights watching next to the crystal ball had very serious expressions.
At this time, in the center of the army, Lord Runos, looking at the red dots on the map where the ogre legions gathered, began to feel bad about the strange situation in the kingdom.
At this time, the king was working with the dwarf coalition to resist the attack of the Naga Legion in the Salt River Swamp to the west. At this time, the threat of ogres appeared in fertile areas such as the mainland river valleys, cutting off important food transportation routes.
The earl asked the mage beside him: "Have these aliens formed an alliance?"
The mage responded: "Your Highness, this is indeed possible."
On this continent, elves, dwarves, and humans formed an alliance, and other tribes sometimes united.
…The next day, when the birds near the military camp began to chirp, the wake-up whistle also sounded in the military camp, and the soldiers also got up amidst the ping-pong metal collision…
During the march on the second day, Eryuan did not sit in the mage's special carriage - the current carriage is only worth riding if you are traveling slowly, but when you speed up, it becomes bumpy.
Eryuan: And the ride in the car is certainly comfortable, but after learning from the lessons of the "human armored tanks in World War II", Eryuan thinks it's better not to be too clingy.
Eryuan was wearing leather armor and blended into the queue of infantrymen in front.
Eryuan moved closer to the lord within twenty steps and understood the conversation between the lord and the people around him through lip reading.
Eryuan learned that the lord had sent a messenger to the imperial city to clarify the situation here. Eryuan was full of prying eyes and conducted a spy.
After translating for more than half of the time, Eryuan sighed: "It seems, it seems, a bit dangerous... My dear, the orcs are moving unidentified, what is going on." Randomly became uneasy.
Suddenly, the lord turned his head and looked at Eyuan who "pricked up his ears". The hair on Eryuan's hair stood up when he was caught in the act. However, the lord smiled and nodded to Eyuan. The meaning of this smile is:
"Don't worry, kid, I can protect you."
Eryuan also smiled stiffly, and then muttered: "I have to practice dodge myself."
However, a few minutes later, Eryuan felt a slight fluctuation in the "phase" element, and then he felt like he was being stared at on the road on the left. He immediately stopped, and then began to break away from the team and walk towards the grass, and
The two soldiers who were following saw the mage leaving the team and followed him, raising their swords and shields on guard.
Eryuan swung the sling in a circle and threw it towards the target in the jungle. With a click, the branch shook twice, and an eye on the wood pattern blinked and was exposed.
Eryuan was sure it was just a magic prop and not some lurking warrior, so he let out a breath.
The soldier walked over, chopped down the branch with the magic eyes that Eryuan had found, and handed it to the lord.
Eryuan has seen this knowledge in the primary witchcraft records of the Karar Magic Hall: This is the "Eye of True Seeing" made by demihuman shamans, which is to peel off the eyes of captives or animals and graft them on plants.
, formed magic props.
The lord got the split branch with eyes, scanned the surrounding jungle, took a deep breath and said to the attendant knight: "Those beasts (beasts) have now discovered our actions."
