The so-called apprentice knights are actually the entourages of the Imperial Knights. They mainly drive two-legged walking machinery similar to warriors to fight with the spirit bone knights. They are also the reserve team of the knights. However, their two-legged walking mechas are larger and more complex than warriors. You can see around the arena. The outline is more solid. In addition to long-range weapons, there are two robot arms on both sides of the main torso, which can use melee weapons. This requirement for users is relatively high.
Generally, a knight order will have 1.5-2 times the number of trainee knights, but Kavarok is particularly numerous, with nearly 2,000 trainee knights.
Of course, the information handed over by Doral not only included detailed data from each Knight, but also the military strength level of each city-state.
The armed forces of the Helo city-state are mainly composed of two parts, the Knights and the Guardian Militia.
The Knights are naturally the absolute core force and the dominant competition among city-states, but the guardian militia should not be underestimated, there is nothing else.
Many people! (Aida Standard)
Due to the competition between the city-states and the disputes between land and resources deliberately dominated by the spirit of the world, each city-state maintains a high level of armed forces and considerable military training. Moreover, there are struggles between city-states, and there are also struggles between families and clans. Without knights, they have to rely on each other's warriors to compete for victory and loss. This small-scale struggle is actually more cruel, and bloodshed and death are even normal, because the spirit of the world only has restrictions on large-scale conflicts. Small-scale struggles are part of the natural cycle of life and death in Kunos's teachings.
Under the influence of this unique culture and environment, in addition to the regular soldiers, militias in various city-states also have a large number of folk warriors. Their main job is to hone their own martial arts skills and learn to use various weapons. Moreover, because Ada is generally out of business, or does not require so many producers, the proportion of their warriors is extremely high. For example, a super-large city-state like Kavarok with a population of over two million, the number of guardian militias is astonishingly more than 300,000. What does this mean? It is not an exaggeration to say that the whole nation is a soldier.
With 300,000 Aida troops, this number can be found in Comoro. However, the army here also includes maintenance of public security, security of key buildings and facilities, and in fact, about half of them will be sent out, which is not too much in general.
But even so, if the entire planet is mobilized, then two or three million troops should be easy, which is very scary.
This means that the Eternal Court will have undisputed absolute power among the Aida tribes of non-Comoros.
Of course, the premise is how to mobilize and how to avoid internal problems. This is all based on political and religious aspects, and cannot be solved by just one authority.
"Speaking of this, why did the Spirit Bone Knight die? It seems that the barbarian kingdoms we have encountered currently do not have such military equipment, only dragon taming. On the contrary, the Helo Kingdom does not seem to have such large-scale animal taming."
Faced with Veronica's doubts, Soshyan thought for a moment and explained:
"This...it is probably a repetition of history. The Spirit Bone Knight is indeed out of date compared to the series of weapons developed by Ada after entering the Empire era. I remember that this kind of war machine in the Empire era basically does not need to be controlled by people. In addition, the war machine walking with legs is not very necessary from a military perspective, so it is not surprising that the Spirit Bone Knight will be eliminated. After that... Almost all wild kingdoms are actually born in the late Empire era. Some Ada, who was tired of the city and the prosperity of immortality, chose to return to the original life, but... I guess they didn't know what life was in the past. They could only imagine that the ancestors lived a pastoral life without any technological products and relying on farming and animal husbandry. They would not think that the Spirit Bone Knight was part of the past era. They might even not know that there was this thing. There were too many things that Ada had been eliminated and abandoned for tens of millions of years."
Veronica then leaned over and whispered:
"Then are you going to promote these?"
"Actually, I personally don't particularly appreciate this kind of large war machinery with legs. There is no way to go on the empire and there is no better choice. I think those fighters here are even more powerful, including Void Crows, aren't that better than those with legs? But... well, considering that Helo's military and civilians have become accustomed to this kind of war machinery and have a unique feeling for them, and they have a certain religious and cultural nature, they still have to be used, and even the scale has to be expanded. In the future, let the people here accept a newer war model. Haste is not enough. Faced with the problem of tens of millions of people, no small matter can be taken care of."
"Hmph, since that's that important, you have to spend more time and effort to deal with it."
As he was speaking, a loud trumpet sounded, followed by the cheers of the crowd. The spirit bone knights who arrived turned to the viewing platform to pay tribute to the Eternal Queen and the Phoenix King. Veronica also walked to the stage and expressed her joy of coming here and witnessing such a prosperous country. Then she gave her words of encouragement and praise, and described the current situation of the Aida tribe after the fall and the original intention of the resurrection of the royal court, and emphasized the mission of the royal court to save the trapped mother god from the realm of the evil god.
When Veronica finished her speech, it was Soshiyan again. He emphasized the current situation in the Galaxy and the dilemma faced by the Ada tribe, especially the Dark Prince's covetousness of Ada's soul and the threat of the fear of the deceased clan to awaken the dead. He gave everyone a shot of the vaccination, and then expressed his mission as the person chosen by Asuyan, as well as the short and long-term goals of the royal court, and praised the martial spirit and development ability of the Helo people in a very high profile, saying that he "looks very much forward to seeing the heroic battle posture of the Helo knights and warriors on the battlefield of stars, as well as the great achievements they will usher in."
After the Double Saint speech, it is the time for the Knights to perform.
It has to be said that in the tens of millions of years of self-development, Helo's spiritual bone technology has developed its own unique route. Their spiritual bone knights are really extremely flexible. They are not comparable to those of rigid Netherworld structures or Titans with strong mechanical insensitivity. They really act like a living creature. They can even perform very complex sword fights, as well as extremely fancy actions such as flips and backflips. Their spherical joints can rotate greatly from multiple angles, or even flip them. At the same time, the mecha has incredible balance, and even large-scale movements will not be crooked, which is very powerful.
