Chapter 160 Gustav, to satisfy you, the concept of the magic swordsman
Speaking of which, a few days ago, when Lille came to the guard squadron to visit Moriarty and took the opportunity to get back Bonda, who had been loaned out for two months, he also specifically talked about Gustave and reminded Moriarty.
Artie paid attention.
According to Lear, Gustave debuted and joined the Azurite City Defense Force at almost the same time as him.
However, unlike the good luck of the former, Gustave failed to find a good boss from the beginning. He finally worked hard for several years to accumulate merit and was promoted to corps leader, but he angered his boss because of a trivial matter.
He was kidnapped and driven out of the original squadron to join the auxiliary ranks. After that, Gustav, who had a tough personality, seemed determined to "not seek advancement" and was willing to hang out among ordinary soldiers.
Even if Cruyff later appreciated him and wanted to promote him, he rejected him in an extremely shameless manner. The magnanimous general laughed it off, but from then on, other people looked at Gustav again.
There is always a hint of weirdness and surprise.
This time, for some unknown reason, Gustav, who was so unknown in the past that he seemed to be ignorant of life and death, immediately signed up after hearing about the opportunity to try out the Magic Swordsman. Unexpectedly, he passed the city defense one after another.
After several assessments within the army and Hockenheim, he successfully joined the ranks of trainees. After several years of arduous magic learning and numerous tests, he finally mastered the first-level magic arrow, which surprised others. But at the price
, Gustav’s original warrior professional level has also degraded from the peak level four to the third level. I don’t know what he, the client, thinks about this.
It was General Cruyff who ordered Gustave to serve as the acting captain of the Magic Swordsmen team.
This time, the strong soldier did not refuse, but accepted it honestly. However,
Such an appointment is only temporary, and the final appointment decision needs to be made by Moriarty, the guard squadron leader.
"Acting Captain Gustav, I'm glad that you and your colleagues can join the guard squadron of the Blue Mage Corps." Moriarty looked up at the magic swordsman who was a whole head taller than him, and smiled: "I represent the squadron.
,Welcome everyone.,…
"Thank you, Your Excellency. This is also our honor." The giant man's answer was still on the way, but there was no smile on his face. However, after just one breath, he said in a deep voice: "Can I ask a question?"
"Okay." Moriarty nodded.
"Excuse me, sir, why has the registration date of our team been delayed until today? As far as I know, other magic swordsmen have joined the various teams under General Cruyff two months ago." Gusta.
Fa looked closely into Shangguan's eyes, his gaze was almost wanton, but strangely he did not see any malice or hostility. What he could see at most was dissatisfaction and questions.
"Because I need to first consolidate the foundation of the guard squadron and build a stable strength structure, and then I can accept your powerful force. Otherwise, an unbalanced system will be the same as a disaster for you and me." Mori
Arty glanced at the other party and then slowly glanced at the other nine people: "If you feel that you have been unfairly treated because of this, I would like to express my sincere apology to everyone." After saying that, Moriarty saluted everyone again.
received a military salute.
"Thank you for your answer, Your Excellency." There was a flash of surprise in his black eyes. Obviously, the giant man did not expect that his new commander would explain his method of balancing power so openly in public. In this way, Gus
Tafu was speechless, but nodded unconsciously.
"Then, Acting Captain Gustav, can I also ask you a question?" Moriarty then asked with a faint smile.
"Please, Your Excellency." The giant man's expression quickly returned to its previous coldness, as if he was preparing to deal with possible difficulties or even humiliation. After all, his question just now was purely 200% disrespectful to the new squadron leader.
"For you who once refused General Cruyff's appreciation, why did you take the initiative to join the Magic Swordsman Project this time...?" Moriarty looked at his "two hundred and five" new subordinate with interest and asked.
"..." He didn't expect that the other party would ask such a question, and the giant man couldn't help but be stunned.
"Why is it not convenient to answer?" Moriarty smiled again.
"No, it's not." Gustav took a deep breath and replied loudly: "The reason why I want to become a magic swordsman is because I am tired of the "big cage" of the city defense army and want to start over in a different place."
"Why don't you choose to retire early?" "Because I know nothing but fighting and killing, and I'm not interested in anything, but I have no intention of being a "stray dog," the same mercenary!" The giant man held his head high,
He shouted loudly like a declaration, without any regard for the dozen or so "former stray dogs" in the squadron on the other side.
"Haha, then this time you have been assigned to the guard squadron directly under the Weilan Mage Regiment, which can be regarded as being separated from the city defense army. You should be satisfied?" Moriarty's eyes glanced at the agitated recruit crossbowman beside him.
As a result, the "newbies" who were a little restless immediately returned to their straight standing posture.
"No, not yet." The eccentric Gustav shook his head provocatively again and stared condescendingly at Moriarty: "If my new superior is still as stupid as those bastards in the city defense army, this place will be no better.
It's just another "cage, that's all!"
When they suddenly heard the giant man's words, not only White and Guderian behind Moriarty suddenly changed their expressions, but even the other nine magic swordsmen standing behind Gustav were shocked.
If it were according to the discipline of the city defense army, any soldier who dared to talk to his superiors like this would have been sentenced to a military stick or even thrown into prison.
"So what do you think an ideal commander should look like?" Moriarty raised his hand, stopped the movement around him, and asked the other party in a nonchalant manner.
"Haha, it's hard to say anything else, but at least he should be able to defeat me!" Gustav laughed.
"This standard is very real and cannot be faked." Moriarty raised the corners of his lips slightly: "Then, in order to completely satisfy you, the two of us will give it a try next time." "Okay!" The direct response to the squadron leader
The giant man invited him to fight without any politeness, and he agreed immediately.
"Morty..."
White on the side hesitated to speak. In such an occasion, as a follower and deputy squadron leader, any slip of his voice may affect Moriarty's prestige and image in the squadron. "White, you are the deputy squadron leader."
Captain, it's just right to be the referee." Moriarty turned around and looked at the gloomy follower and said casually.
"Yes, Your Excellency." After meeting Moriarty's eyes, White nodded slowly, then strode out and announced in public: "Battle drill between Squadron Leader Moriarty and Acting Captain Gustav."
, will be held on the camp playground in five minutes: the final result of the exercise will be determined by the actual outcome: no one is allowed to interfere! Do you understand?"
"Yes, Deputy Squadron Leader White!" After hearing such an order, both the existing soldiers in the squadron and the nine magic swordsmen on the opposite side responded loudly.
Neither of them seemed to have any intention of changing their equipment. Moriarty was wearing a dark blue woolen mid-level officer uniform, while Gustav was wearing an ordinary cowhide armor, and they stood on the competition field together.
"Change your sword."
Moriarty glanced at the one-star sharp dagger in Gustafa's hand, then took off his red saber, handed it to Guderian beside him, and then took a standard dagger that was exactly the same as the other man's.
.
"Sir Squadron Leader, as far as I know, you are a third-level mage, but you are planning to fight with me?" Gustav looked at Moriarty who slowly drew out his sword in surprise, and said in surprise, this is also the case with this giant.
Han showed a confused look for the first time today.
"Let's try it."
Moriarty smiled casually. Obviously, the inside story of his actual third-level warrior professional level was not known to outsiders like Gustav. But as he was about to actually set foot on the battlefield, Moriarty’s secret was also impossible.
I can't hide it for much longer.
"Your Excellency Moriarty is a mage, right? Why didn't he use a magic wand but a dagger?" "No, the squadron leader is planning to compete with that Gustav in swordsmanship?"
"Oh my god, are you also a magic swordsman?" At the same time, the crowd watching the battle also erupted in waves of comments and surprises. However, under White's close gaze, they quickly calmed down. Now.
Everyone present was eager to see how Moriarty with the sword could deal with Gustav, who was more piercing than a stab in the head. Of course, many people also hoped to take advantage of this rare opportunity to defeat Gustav.
Let’s take a good look at the “quality” of your squadron leader.
Then, under White's command, Moriarty and Gustav walked about thirty steps in different directions, and then stood facing each other.
"I announce that the battle drill has begun!" Seeing that the two were ready, White nodded to Moriatillo and shouted loudly.
Before the referee's shout could reach its peak, Gustav had already jumped up and rushed towards his opponent dozens of meters away. Although the magic swordsman was tall and strong, his pace was very fast.
But he is never slow and every step he takes is huge, so he has stronger straight-line sprinting power than some other agile warriors.
Obviously, facing the third-level mage Moriarty, Gustav had no intention of trying to fight with the opponent with magic arrows, because that would be tantamount to humiliating himself.
The so-called magic swordsmen use magic to defeat warriors and swords to kill mages!
This is Gustav's core combat philosophy and the path he has chosen to become a magic swordsman. (To be continued.
