General Keenster sat quietly in the command room alone. He was watching the book "War of Fernando" with all his attention. The table in front of him was filled with all kinds of materials, and a copy was placed in a corner of the table. Roast beef, and a goat's milk soup, but it has already cooled down.
"Report!" A majestic voice rang outside the door.
General Keenster put down the book in his hand and said aloud, "Come in, Clark."
The door was pushed open, and General Clark stepped in.
"Sit down, you also worked hard today." General Keenst said lightly: "How are the results? Statistics come out."
"Yes, General." General Clark walked upright in front of the table, greeted Keenst with a standard military salute, and then said aloud, "Today, the orc attacked Thor's fortress for the fifth time."
General Keenst waved his hand and pointed to the chair in front of him and said to Clark: "Well, Clark, don't be so restrained, sit down and talk slowly."
"Oh, okay." General Clark was a civilian. He didn't have as many rules as the nobility. He sat on the chair pointed by General Keenst, and his heavy body pressed the chair "crunchy".
"General, during the day's battle during the day, my Clark Corps killed more than 8,000 people. The soldiers on the back of the orcs were particularly powerful. The 1,000 people killed more than 5,000 soldiers, and almost no wounded." General Clark said Here, suddenly swearing out a few slang words from his hometown, which probably meant greeting the female ancestors of these orcs.
The nobleman General Keenst frowned slightly. Actually, he didn't understand Clark's native language very much. But after all, Clark had been under his hands for several years. The words he often said still knew the meaning.
After Clarke vented a few words, he continued: "Our army killed about 30,000 orcs, and destroyed more than 100 orbital and siege vehicles. Our army consumed arrows."
General Keenster listened to General Clark's report in silence, and after Clark finished speaking about the general situation, General Keenster asked, "How is that little magician?"
Speaking of Ryan, Clark ’s eyes radiated the miser ’s gaze when he saw the gold coins. He said excitedly: "This little magician is so good. Today he and his shooter team killed more than 2,000 orcs. My two guards personally went to the statistics, and the little guy named Lane killed more than 1,000 orcs independently, including 400 elite warriors of the kind of orcs. This is really a terrible number. The man ’s record is almost only possible by the elite team of 5000 people. General, you can give me a few more magicians like this. "
General Keenster sighed and said to Clark: "Don't dream, you haven't seen those magicians before. Almost everyone is a bauble vase. You can't put a few magic on it. Going back to meditation, you have to keep quiet when casting spells, there must be no interference, how is this possible on the battlefield. "
"However, this little magician does not have these problems." General Clark said hesitantly: "General, I saw it with my own eyes today. This magician named Ryan was born for fighting. I often see him A purple thing flew out of my hand, or a blue lightning. By the way, there was a round red ball. That thing was the most powerful. It could kill several orcs at once. "
General Keenster said bitterly: "Who knows, maybe this little guy is a freak."
Speaking here, Keenster's tone changed and whispered: "Clark, you are my old man, and I don't hide from you. Over the years, we have been a little careless, and no one thought that the orc could actually dispatch 50. Thousands of troops. Although we humans can guard against danger, if the orcs are 500,000, they can pile up the fortress. Now the orcs only send tens of thousands of people to attack the city every day, I am afraid there are other attempts. Ah. If I guess right, it should be because there are many different lords among the orcs, and the orc ’s highest ruler may not be able to fully control it, so he will slowly send tens of thousands of attacks every day, on the one hand, gradually consuming our power On the other hand, they are also consuming those uncontrollable forces. "
"What should I do?" General Clark whispered, "Could we just sit and wait?"
General Keenster said: "The orcs need time because they will slowly reduce the power of the other lords, and we also need time, because I just got a personal letter from General Orlando, who will lead an army to support us. There will be sacred knights in the army, as well as magicians of the Royal Academy of Magic. "
"Ah, the magician!" Upon hearing this, General Clark's eyes began to shine again: "General, these magicians will give me. If you can form an army of magicians, it must be great."
General Keenster shook his head and said: "Don't think about it now. These days of battle, your army is very expensive. Tonight I will let the Jonas Army take over your defense. Your army will start tomorrow. Start, step up and rest. I will add some soldiers to you, you must restore your vitality before the arrival of General Orlando "
"This, er, general, my legion still has almost 40,000 people to continue fighting. Those who are not seriously injured also have nearly 10,000 people. I can stick to it."
"You know, kill, kill!" General Keenster taught Clark: "You have to fight hard, you have to rest. Do you hope that when General Orlando arrives, your legion will be all broken up?" ? "
"No, but"
"It's nothing, Clark. I have also been in Thor Fortress for 10 years. I competed for the position of the head of the Royal Knights, but unfortunately lost to Orlando, so I came here to serve. According to the usual practice, I may be transferred after this battle. When you go back to the Imperial City, it is very likely that you will take my place at that time. But I can only make suggestions for these. Whether you can do it or not depends on your own. "
"Okay, let's go down. The magician named Ryan is very good. If I can pay attention to the information he provided before, maybe I won't be so passive now."
"I see, General. That's nothing. I'm going out first."
After watching Clark leave, General Keenster picked up the book "War of Fernando" again. This book describes the history of Fernando I from Sunrise City to the defeat of the orcs and the establishment of the entire empire. It was written by a military priest in a diary.
General Keenster was watching this person when he was free these days. His biggest concern was that Fernando I swept through the entire South Taryn steppe with only 100,000 soldiers, and drove the orcs ten times as large as his own to the North Tower. Prairie. According to the book, when fighting with the orcs, Fernando I used heavy infantry to form a formation to hold with the orcs, suppressing the opponent with the shooter, and giving the magician enough time to cast, so that the magician can free the magic and wait until the orc When chaotic under a lot of magic attacks, 10,000 Holy Knights will launch a fatal blow.
Compared with the elite troops of the Fortress of Thor in comparison with the army of Fernando I, the only thing missing is the magician. Although Keenst knows nothing about magic, in recent decades, it is a fact that the level of the magician is not as good as one year. Especially the generous subsidies of the Magic Guild made the real magician disappear. Since you can enjoy a noble life just by hanging a title, who else will stay in the lab honestly and study magic boringly? Not to mention joining the army.
In order to advance, those magicians practice more magic for promotion. To promote a junior magician, you only need three level 3 magic. Well, you only need to practice these at ordinary times. Anyway, even if you release 300 magic at a time, It is not only able to be promoted to a junior magician. This is the same treatment as a magician who can only release 3 magics. There is no return for paying. Learning magic is a very costly thing. Who needs to spend that effort? what?
Those who can join a certain chamber of commerce like Lille and York and earn gold coins by using their own strength to make magic items and so on are already a few, not to mention the freaks like Lane, a magic apprentice who definitely has more than intermediate magicians. the power of.
As the commander of the 200,000 army, Keenst could not have prepared them against Lane. In fact, Clark did not need to report. The agents who had been installed in the Clark Corps had already issued an assessment report on Lane ’s strength. It is clearly pointed out above that Ryan may not be qualified to promote a junior magician at all, but he can definitely kill 100 intermediate magicians by himself. This may be the biggest irony for the guild of promotion of the Magic Guild.
Keenst shook his head in distress, hoping that the magicians brought by General Orlando would be one-tenth the level of Lion, so that he would laugh when he dreamed. In today ’s daytime battle, Ryan had such a record, not only killed a large number of enemy troops, but also resolved dangers and motivated morale many times. If Ryan was not just a mercenary, Keenst even wanted to give Ryan a medal of warrior. . If there are really 100 magicians like Lane, General Keynst is even prepared to take the initiative to attack, as Fernando I did in the orc city, to completely solve this 200-year side problem.
