Except for the last time when I advanced to the second-level [Heavy Infantry] profession on the normal mode map, because my performance in the actual combat assessment was too good, I was unexpectedly received by "Her Royal Highness", and even obtained an unknown weapon from the opponent.
Apart from the "Trial" mission delivered, Liu Yifei has not had any interaction with Princess Catherine in battle in this life.
It's not that he doesn't want to, it's really that the core NPC of the kingdom, or even the core NPC of the future game world, is really not something that players can easily come into contact with.
The name "Kingdom Guards Recruit" has a small weight in the military system, but if it is placed in the NPC elite system, it is really a little transparent that can't even break through the bubble. How can it be compared with the deeply loved veterans?
Compared to His Royal Highness the Princess whom the King loves?
So even though he knew everything about the future, Liu Yifei never thought about doing anything through this aspect...
With his current "identity", if he inexplicably approaches some middle-level and above dignitaries in the royal capital, he will probably be watched secretly by countless eyes, let alone the princess who is about to get married?
It's just that Liu Yifei really ignored the plot of "Princess Getting Married", and he almost thought it was just a pure background CG released later in the game~
However, after the black man Adric announced the latest information, Liu Yifei, who was as steady as an old dog, couldn't help but make calculations - in the daily plot of the following days, there was actually a plot of the Guards going on tour to practice!
It’s just that the real process is a bit difficult to describe...
In the memory of my previous life, the CG background of "Princess Getting Married" was on a large ship. The princess's guard of honor slowly came, and then the middle-aged man was welcomed aboard with thunderous applause from the surrounding people. Finally, Her Royal Highness the Princess was on the bow of the ship with
The people of their own kingdom reluctantly said goodbye, and sailed toward the endless sea under the "escort" of the knights and seabirds.
Since this content was only presented as background at the time, not many players took it seriously. But now that Liu Yifei wanted to come, he suddenly discovered the problem - Standwick is not close to the sea at all!!!
The royal capital is not only located in the central area of the Kingdom of Erathia, but even relative to the entire Entagri continent, the royal capital is located close to the center of the middle and lower regions. Even the relatively nearest "South China Sea" is separated by a hundred thousand people.
A distance of eight thousand miles, not to mention being surrounded by foreign enemies?
There is a problem here...
The tour training here in the royal capital was a bit too simple, and it even seemed to the originally extremely excited Liu Yifei that it was a complete waste of time - because the "responsibility" of their escorts was actually just to make a killing.
Just follow along!
This is really no joke~
The security work in the royal capital was originally the responsibility of the royal guards and garrison troops. On the day of the wedding, the central main road to be occupied was completely isolated and under martial law, and the people watching the ceremony could only watch from the outside.
The royal family's specialized honor guard troops are also responsible for the honor guard. It's hard to say what their specific combat effectiveness is, but in terms of appearance alone, it is definitely far better than the good and bad in the general army~
Furthermore, when it comes to Her Royal Highness the Princess's core security work, it is also the responsibility of Her Royal Highness the Princess's personal knights and some of her former "old subordinates". There is no need for outsiders to get involved.
Yes, one thing to emphasize here is that strictly speaking, the rise of "Catherine" did not just suddenly explode when she returned as the "Queen" in the future. She was already very powerful when she was the "Princess" of the kingdom.
A rare "military faction"!
Little is known about the condition of Princess Catherine when she was younger, but after she entered her teenage years, the unexpected death of her biological mother and sister caused a great deal of stimulation to Her Royal Highness the Princess at the time.
Coupled with the encouragement of the old king, the princess, who was not yet old at the time, was led by the legendary marshal Morgan Kendall to join the military...
As a result, Her Royal Highness, who seemed to be quite powerful, gathered a group of loyal fans of her own in the army. In the future, she would return to the capital with her and become her personal bodyguard...
Peripheral security, personal bodyguards, honor guards... all these tasks do not require the intervention of the Guards. But when there is such a big movement from the royal family, how can the Guards, as a direct subordinate of the royal family, remain indifferent?
So in the end, the "job" the escort got was to follow the guard of honor...
Yes, you are not mistaken!
Without hesitation to let Chief Instructor Edric go to war, the "important task" after gathering everyone is to act as the "accompanying infantry" in various similar situations, the most insignificant scenes...
He can’t even do the work of raising the banner or blowing the horn!
For example, instructors, chief instructors, etc. will probably show their faces to some extent, but recruits like Liu Yifei and the others will really disappear from everyone~
After all, in such a grand scene at that time, who would have the time to see these "big soldiers"...
The only good news is that until Liu Yifei left the line on Friday night, after the whole battalion completed the last drill, they finally got the right words from Chief Instructor Edrik:
It turns out that Her Royal Highness the Princess’s marriage has been decided a long time ago! Even the guests from Eli and Brakada have arrived in the royal capital long ago~
Tomorrow, the entire honor guard procession will set off from the royal palace, passing through many core areas in the royal city such as the Knights Racecourse, the Cathedral, and the Parliament. After half a circle around the royal capital, they will leave from the royal capital's teleportation array and go all the way south, taking advantage of the king's road.
The public transmission channels of several major cities in the country eventually go to "somewhere" in the south to go to sea...
What the escort has to do is to follow the princess all the way and cooperate with the princess's personal guards and the guards of the local legions to ensure that the princess leaves the country safely and soundly...
This series of arrangements must not be completed in just one or two days. This kind of super boring and time-wasting guard work is likely to occupy the plot time next week.
But at this moment, Liu Yifei's attention had been involuntarily shifted to other aspects.
Eli, Bracada's guest of honor?
Someone from the Tower Clan actually came???
It's right to think about it. Currently, the entire continent of Entagre is at peace. Under the leadership of the Golden Dragon Queen, the forest elves in Eli have been away from the original ice and snow elves' kingdom circles for a long time. They have already had an overall relationship with Erathia.
Peace Covenant.
Although there have been many bad debts surrounding the Harmondale area in history... But overall, the two sides still have a lot of cooperation and exchanges in economy, culture, and trade, and even the scale of half-elves on the Entagri continent is small.
Gradually expand~
In comparison, the relationship between Bracada and Erathia is even closer!
The two sides are more closely related to each other in terms of geography, history, and kingdom exchanges than the Eri elves.
Nowadays, for such a big event as the princess of the kingdom getting married, it is completely normal to summon special envoys from the two tribes to watch the ceremony together...
But when it came to Liu Yifei, he subconsciously thought of the "Border Suspicion" plot mission that Lengfeng Chuanjing led a three-person team to complete a while ago.
[It can’t be such a coincidence...]
Liu Yifei was thinking this, but he couldn't help but have a voice in his heart that kept reminding him~
Considering that Krorod and the Eri Rebellion are about to happen soon in history, the shadow of death terror is about to gradually fall outside Erathia.
At this moment, there is a strange and invisible undercurrent of death surging in the kingdom... Coupled with the guests of Brakada from the south...
Is all of this really just a coincidence?
Gritting his teeth, before logging off, Liu Yifei finally took advantage of the fact that the crowd had just dispersed and before everyone had completely dispersed, and approached the "robber" who was somewhat related to him - Mick Wilcher.
During the first month-end assessment, Liu Yifei felt that the "bandit" was very well-informed and was like a spy for the guards. This time, he might have to rely on his help.
"Mick, I have something, I hope you can try your best to help me! If it is done, the benefits will definitely be yours~"
Now Liu Yifei has a general understanding of the "bandit" guy. This guy is very utilitarian. Managing connections, climbing the official career, and getting ahead are what he thinks about day and night. And to deal with this kind of person, say
It's not difficult to come by, especially now that I happen to have much more powerful resources on hand than before.
"'Captain'? Why are you being polite to me if you have something? Just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely be unambiguous!"
"Did you understand what the Chief Instructor said earlier? I would like to know about the guests from Eli and Brakada...especially the guests from Brakada.
It is said that those are some great magicians!
I have always been fascinated by mysterious spell casters. I want to know the names and origins of the masters. I think I might have the opportunity to visit one or two in the future...
I know that you are very well-informed in this escort army. As long as you can do this... I now have the authority to use medicinal materials in the logistics camp, you know? The benefits will definitely be yours!"
As soon as Liu Yifei said this, Mick's eyes lit up subconsciously~
After all, we are all new recruits. Who can hide the daily expenses and supplies of medicines?
But during the assessment at the end of last month, who didn’t see Geralt drinking the physical recovery potion as water during the competition in the fighting camp?
Some news came out before, saying that Geralt seemed to have obtained permission from the top management of the training camp and could freely enter and leave the logistics camp. He had been encountered there several times.
Coupled with the fact that Geralt recovered from drug abuse last month...
How can Mick, nicknamed "The Bandit", hold on despite receiving the other party's guarantee?
This kid is inherently arrogant. He has suffered enough from the common people at the bottom, and all he wants is to get more and master more~
On weekdays, the supplies applied for as recruits are quite large, and it is difficult to even keep some secretly. If we can get some supplies from Geralt in an honest way...
"Don't worry~ 'Captain', your business is our team's business! You don't know that when you led everyone to fight in that battle, everyone was thinking of you. How could I dare to ask for any benefits? This
I will take care of the matter tonight. If I have any news, I will tell you, Captain, as soon as possible..."
Just when Liu Yifei consciously made arrangements and went offline to rest contentedly, the forum was already noisy and restless, just like the time before the official launch of the game and the sudden arrival of the first copy.
There is no other reason than that in the past week, "Shadow of War" has really attracted people's attention and has become well-known to everyone!
And what's even more terrible is...
Starting from Monday this week, a piece of video material will be officially announced on the forum every day. As the countdown to the unblocking of the first CG on the official website approaches, everyone has basically seen the trick!
After working on it for a long time, this official so-called promotional video for CG is actually the personal promotional video of the player named "Geralt"!!!
For a time, the number of searches for "Geralt" on the forum increased dramatically, and even the popular "Wolf Trouble" eclipsed some time ago~
Because of its rapid rise in fame in a short period of time, millions of players are filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred!
If the content of the officially released video material is slightly inferior, I am afraid that many players will jump out and scold the official for being unfair.
But the video content that was released...
Or fighting a group of goblins alone in an unknown cave, or killing bandits in the mountains and forests, shocking everyone, or fighting vampires to the death in a town full of chaos and fire at night...
In comparison, the two interspersed game videos of other "unknown players" are too watery, as if they are not on the same level at all~
And because there is so much attention focused on this matter, someone has long revealed on the forum that the officially released game images are obviously the gaming experience of players in the campaign mode, so those who have been posting on the forum all day long
The game experience in normal mode is completely redundant~
I don’t even understand what kind of video material the game official requires!
This statement is basically recognized by everyone. After all, the reactions of monsters and NPCs in the video materials can be distinguished at a glance. The root of the problem that everyone has criticized in the campaign mode has always been "difficulty".
If this point is not taken into account, in terms of realism and experience, the campaign is really several levels higher than the big map~
But the problem lies in the "difficulty" of the campaign mode!
Today, even in the normal mode, there are more and more third-level professionals in the player group, and many other second-level players also play "double cultivation of magic and martial arts", starting with two second-level professions or above.
of.
On the big map, the players' strength has gradually surpassed the "mortal" level and is moving towards the "inhuman" level.
But as soon as they entered the campaign mode, everyone was knocked back to their original shape. They instantly recalled that when they first entered the game, everyone was as "powerless" as ordinary people in reality - this
