Before meeting Suldak, Captain Emil Mason never thought that a paladin could have such a great effect on a legion.
As the priests and battle priests of the Temple of Liberty left the Roland continent one after another, the Green Empire's army seemed to have its wings restrained by an invisible big hand. The Constructed Knights, who originally spanned the entire continent, could only retreat to the empire.
Native.
In the past few years, plane wars have occurred frequently in the Green Empire, and the Constructed Knights have been traveling back and forth between the planes and the empire.
Healing potions have been sold at sky-high prices, water magicians are gradually being promoted to the altar, and first aid has become a required course in war academies everywhere. Even so, the battle damage caused by serious injuries and death on the battlefield is still the biggest problem for each Constructed Knights.
.
Many knights are not as strong as before because they are afraid of getting injured.
Many times, Captain Emile Mason was powerless and could only ask his knights to replace their armor with more sophisticated ones.
Many magic pattern constructs made of Warcraft leather have therefore been abandoned by construct knights, or some knights simply wear double-layer armor...
At a time when first aid is in vogue, when the paladin Surdak appears on the battlefield, the effect of Holy Light is infinitely magnified in an instant. Especially on such a cruel battlefield with heavy casualties, the appearance of a paladin means that
Countless seriously injured knights can be rescued.
Surdak did indeed achieve this, and in addition to using the Holy Light Technique, he also used the power of sacrifice.
After more than two hundred construct knights were rescued by Surdak in an emergency, they would receive the blessing of the 'Blessed Body'. These construct knights are now lying on the grassy grass beside the Bouyin River.
There is a canopy above their heads that covers half of the starry sky. Many construct knights are lying on stretchers, and they can see the sparkling Buruin River.
Captain Emil Mason was busy here until very late. He didn't know how many people he had introduced to the commander of the Western Route Army, Lord Suldak.
…
The blood stained on both arms had turned the linen shirt on Surdak into a starched blood coat, and the two blood-soaked sleeves had become hard under the baking of the campfire.
Andrew, Tago and Gulitem were sitting not far in front of his tent, chatting around the campfire.
Tago was combing the long silver fur of Bonita the frost wolf. A half-cooked leg of lamb was placed in front of Bonita. It looked like she was full.
When Andrew was resting, he never lacked a whetstone in his hand, and he rubbed the edge of the butcher's ax vigorously.
His butcher's ax is just a high-quality imitation, not an epic magic weapon. However, after so many battles, the blood soaked in the patterns on the ax has given it a unique pattern.
, ordinary people can smell the strong smell of blood on the ax from more than ten meters away.
Andrew said he had to put a butcher's ax under his head every night to sleep peacefully.
Wolf Knight Tago said very seriously that he had to hold Bonita in his arms every night to sleep...
The two-headed ogre brothers said that one of their brothers would be asleep in the first half of the night, and the other would be asleep in the second half of the night. They would maintain this habit even when they were at home, because the young men in Wall Village always wanted to
Want to steal his yellow sheep.
Suldak dragged his tired body over and sat among them, stretching out his hands to warm himself by the fire.
It wasn't cold in this season, he just wanted to dry the blood on his sleeves.
"Why don't you wash it?"
At this time, probably only Andrew would dare to ask this question.
Surdak lay back and looked up at the starry sky that was half-covered by clouds. It is said that many astrologers can identify their own location based on star charts.
"I'll probably be busy for a while, so I'll take some time to rest first," Suldak said.
Gulitem handed over the skewer with the barbecue in his hand and asked, "Would you like something to eat?"
Suldak shook his head and said with a smile: "I just drank some oatmeal and paired it with a bottle of spiritual potion. The taste is really amazing..."
The two-headed ogre brothers thought about it seriously. No matter who they were, they had never eaten like this before, and they immediately became interested.
Andrew regained his energy and came to Suldak's side and asked softly: "Did you get that batch of magic potions back?"
Suldak nodded.
"This time, we have to give 300 bottles to our First Constructed Knights..." Andrew the Lion said loudly.
"There are not that many in total, but I can give you a hundred bottles. The Second Constructed Knights will also have the same quota, and I will put the rest on the merit exchange list." Surdak said.
He was thinking about it and said, "By the way, this battle on the Bouyin River reminded me of something!"
The three of them looked at Suldak at the same time.
"What?"
Surdak stretched his arms again, and all the bones in his body were making rattling sounds.
"What if I go to the aboriginal tribe in the north of Moyun Ridge and recruit some great witches to join my lord army?" Suldak said.
He was not unreasonable when he said this. Andrew is a native of the Nanai tribe, the two-headed ogre is from the ogre tribe, and the wolf knight Tago is also from the wolf orc tribe, so Surdak wants to hear it.
Listen to their opinions.
Without even thinking about it, Andrew shook his head and objected: "Just ask the big witches to come over and help you. I guess you won't be able to invite them."
Seeing Suldak looking over in surprise.
Andrew went on to explain: "You don't understand these aboriginal tribes. These powerful witches are considered nobles in the tribe. They live a very prosperous life in the tribe, have no worries about food and drink, and are surrounded by women. Why would they run away?"
Come and serve you in your army!"
Although these words were a bit rough, Surdak couldn't argue with them.
"Then what do you think would be more feasible?"
"I don't know." Andrew said irresponsibly, spreading his hands.
He just thinks it won't work, but there is no good way to solve the problem.
Surdak patted his forehead.
Those aboriginal tribes have not stopped their inheritance. The elder-level wizards in the tribes all preside over the sacrificial ceremony. If they are brought into the army, Surdak feels that the combat power of these construct knights and ant cavalry can at least be improved.
A step.
He was lost in thought when he heard the wolf knight Tago say:
"If we follow the way of the orcs, then we can convince their entire tribe to form a strategic alliance with us."
"For example, the orc tribe, on the Payin Plateau alone, is divided into wolf tribe, liger tribe, centaur tribe, etc., and if it is on the eastern continent, there are also cat tribe, rabbit tribe, etc."
"The situation of these tribes is basically an alliance. As long as a war breaks out in one place, all the tribes will send warriors to fight."
Wolf Knight Tago's words immediately opened a window in Suldak's heart. It turned out that he could still do this!
At this time, even the two-headed ogre Gulitem came up and said:
"Actually, the orc tribe in the past was more powerful than it is now. Strictly speaking, our ogre tribe, Cyclops tribe, and Pengnia tribe have almost all joined the orc tribe. It's just that we have separated now that there is no war."
"After all, you and Tago still have such a relationship..." Andrew laughed.
Gulitem stared at his copper bell-like eyes and angrily yelled at Andrew: "What I want to express is that the matter that the leader is considering is very feasible. If he can invite the great witches from the aboriginal tribes, then he doesn't have to do this.
busy"
Surdak patted Tago's shoulder with a bloody hand and said with satisfaction: "It's worth a try. At least for now we have a common enemy, and we can't keep them stationed in Moyun Ridge, otherwise we will point out
Maybe something will happen and it will be a big trouble."
"Furthermore, with the current strength of our West Route Army alone, it is impossible to push the battlefield all the way to Moyun Ridge, and it is even less possible for the aboriginal tribes in the northern mountains of Moyun Ridge. But if we unite together, this matter can still be done.
You really should think about it!"
Thinking of this, Suldak's mind suddenly opened up.
He began to continuously discuss with the three people around him about reaching a strategic alliance with the indigenous tribes.
…
It wasn't until the magician Basil took advantage of the darkness of night to ride down on his magic harpoon that Suldak stopped talking about this topic.
The group of magicians who followed Lord Suldak's army to the Warsaw plane are now almost all members of the reconnaissance team, and these magicians have long adapted to this hard life in the army.
They have to carry out a lot of investigation activities every day, and many magicians have become dark and thin during this period.
Basil came out with Surdak this time, mainly to investigate the group of evil ghost warriors who rushed in from Naroda. He also conducted night reconnaissance at such a late hour in order to determine the course of action for tomorrow morning.
When they arrived at the Bruin River, Suldak didn't want to be led by Captain Emil Mason all the time.
"How is it going?"
Surdak couldn't help but ask when he saw Basil sitting down.
The magician Basil took off his water bag, pulled out the cork and took a sip of water before saying: "If you explore westward along the Bouyin River, you can see a large number of evil ghost legions, but almost all of these evil ghost legions are three.
The size of the group of more than a thousand people was probably due to the exploration of the many tributaries of the Bu Ruin River, which led to these evil spirits scattering the army."
"This is good news for us. At least we can just eat an evil ghost army of this size!"
Suldak suddenly became energetic...
The magician Basil continued: "And I found that there is a construct knight group entangled near each evil ghost army. In the middle section of the Bouyin River alone, I found at least eight such construct knight groups.
Although they look very embarrassed, they are not as miserable as this one..."
Basil said the last part very quietly.
It is indeed tragic. There is no knight in the entire Constructed Knights who is not injured.
Suldak knew that these Constructed Knights were the troops of the Eastern Route Army. At the beginning, the lords of Bena City believed that Edmund Marquis Arnold could bring them good luck and placed their last bet.
For Duke Newman, this was actually a big gamble. He spent more than eight years on this game.
I pushed most of the chips into the gambling pool before, but now the final few hands are about to be decided...
Suldak's Western Route Army also became a bargaining chip. Thinking of this, Suldak said:
"Get ready, Andrew. Tomorrow morning, we will sweep westward along the Bruin River to clean up all the evil spirits encountered. Tago's second knights will set out with you. You must try your best to meet those constructs.
The Knights, this group of construct knights are probably the last wealth of many noble lords, we cannot let them be destroyed by these evil spirits here."
"clear……"
Andrew puffed out his chest and said.
In fact, he is a little envious of those giant soldier ants...
With this swarm of giant soldier ants at the front, the strength advantage possessed by the evil ghost warriors was immediately gone.
"then!"
Surdak threw a glass pipe at Basil.
The magician hurriedly grabbed it, then shook it gently with his hand. When he saw a few bubbles coming out of the blue transparent liquid in the glass tube, he pulled out the cork and put it under his nose to smell it.
Then he said excitedly:
"This is good stuff!"
He shook the bottle of potion, wetted his lips with the light blue liquid, and sealed the mouth of the bottle with the lid very stingily. He took out a small magic sealing box from the magic belt bag and kept it in
In the magic box.
Seeing Surdak and others looking at him in surprise, they explained:
"I remember when I was studying at the Magic Academy, I was still a magic apprentice. I received a monthly allowance from the Magic Guild and had to recite the magic rune table every day to cope with the monthly exams. At that time, all the allowances had to be saved.
I got up just to be able to buy a bottle of this potion before graduation."
"Besides relieving mental fatigue, what else can it be used for?" Surdak asked curiously.
Basil laughed and said: "It is not used to relieve mental fatigue. Only a great lord like you would drink mental potions so extravagantly. Even if we are magicians, we can only do it when the magic experiment is the most critical.
Only then can I be willing to open a bottle.”
"This thing is as special as the Lion King's Power Potion. As long as a ninth-level magic apprentice drinks it, he can see himself break through the bottleneck and become a first-level mage. As long as the effect of the potion does not disappear, he can continue to maintain this state.
For a magic apprentice, it is considered a successful promotion to become a magician."
"So this is a magic potion to assist in advancement. It can only temporarily improve mental strength."
Surdak, who had never taken mental potions seriously, finally understood why Lance, the Magic Guild in Helensa City, had such a proposal...
"So that's it! No wonder Lance wants to make more bottles." He murmured to himself.
The magician Basil glanced at Surdak in surprise, but he refrained from asking.
Andrew and Gulitem also looked at each other.
"We didn't think this thing would be so precious, but I still have the same opinion as before, no potion can be as good as the healing potion now..."
