Liu Yifei's situation in this "foreign hunting patrol" is very different from that of the previous "publicly dispatched Harmondale"——
No matter what I said last time, at least it was officially authorized by the big boss Edric. From the entourage to the material supplies and the application for armaments, everything was paid for by the public~
A little inconvenience is just "you have to follow orders". If it is not necessary, the degree of freedom in the army will definitely not be comparable to the outside world...
Even so, Liu Yifei was still "excused" by this cunning man. He took advantage of the east wind to stir up trouble in the northern border. After that, they couldn't really deal with him - because that was the same as
As a result, he was having trouble with the Kingdom's regular army, the Harmondale Independent Group Army, the Kingdom Guards Training Camp and even His Majesty the King!
This time...
The degree of freedom is quite high. As long as he does not "treason", does not return to the hinterland of the kingdom, and abides by the minimum rules of reporting to the local garrison on time, Liu Yifei will not be ignored even if he wants to reach for the stars~
However, in contrast, no one paid attention to him, from the accompanying personnel, material supplies to the armament needs... Even if he wanted to go to the teleportation array for convenience, he had to pay according to the rules, and there was not even a little discount - after all,
Liu Yifei's "hunting patrol" this time was of a punitive nature...
Not to mention that Liu Yifei has spent a lot of money and resources on his own top-quality equipment. Even if he has the spare money, he definitely can't afford the ultra-long-distance transmission cost of a squadron (50) team!!
…
You read that right, the final size of Liu Yifei's "hunting patrol" team this time was determined to be around forty or fifty people. For this reason, even his "hunting patrol" quota was increased by a quarter again - that's it
, or for the "face" of Liu Yifei's entourage, who are just a bunch of "waste", otherwise, I'm afraid the punishment will really be extreme...
This time, Liu Yifei brought out all the "prototypes of power" he had gathered bit by bit in the royal capital, in order to go to a dangerous place and complete the final transformation with his future "core team"
——
This group of people does not have to go through the baptism of blood and fire. Strictly speaking, there is no actual combat ability below the first level~ As for the chicks who have never seen blood, it is even more difficult in a place like the Royal Capital where dragons and snakes are mixed.
If you "disappear" for the first time, you will either die inexplicably, or you will quickly evolve into an "old bird"...
Therefore, from the very beginning when Liu Yifei recruited people, his requirements were "above the first level" and "honest and obedient"... And for some reason unknown to others, Liu Yifei's recruitment scope even included some very old veterans... and even
It’s some disabled people!!
You must know that even the regular army of the Kingdom will hardly provide too many benefits to the "veterans" and "personnel disabled due to war" that it has eliminated - except for a small "severance pay", the real big ones are
I took away all my merits before joining the army and during the war, and what I finally sent to you was just the "Kingdom's Mercy"~
It is also for this reason that most of these old men or disabled people live in poverty after military service... However, they can no longer make a living using their previous "craftsmanship" - the quality of the "retired personnel" who are willing to be completely released by the Kingdom's army
It is conceivable. After all, if you still have the strength to fight, how can the army let you go so easily?
However, this time Liu Yifei's "recruitment requirements" specifically put forward the "needs" for these two types of people, and even explicitly stated that if they performed well during their service in the army and had the experience of obtaining the position of non-commissioned officer, etc., they would even have a negative impact on their current combat capabilities.
Requirements, degree of disability, etc. can be further reduced...
For this reason, the "appearance" of Liu Yifei's squadron leaving the city is quite strange~
In addition to the various equipment, they look like a mob, there are even some old men with white hair and disabled people with missing arms and legs!
It once caused all the spies in the royal capital to scratch their heads, but they still couldn't figure out what "dignified Geralt", a "genius" who was more or less the number one person in the royal capital, was doing on a "hunting tour" with such a group of weirdos.
Task……
If there is anything that makes everyone doubt that "Geralt is going to die", it is probably the group of real "elites" around Liu Yifei, right?
A fully armed [Knight] riding a tall war horse...
A typical [Monk] wearing the robe of the royal mage group...
There are also two [mercenaries], "Mountain Ape" Laton Reis and "Two-Headed Snake" Agil, who are very famous in the royal capital...
In addition, the person who appeared at the last moment was, according to the investigation, a middle-aged man named Binsk who was originally the owner of a certain magic shop in the royal capital and had official [mage] abilities...
Plus Geralt himself…
This looks more or less like an elite team on a "hunting patrol" mission~
As for the others...
People from all walks of life watched the team completely disappear from sight, either openly or covertly, but in the end they could not guess the intention of the young man who led it...
Due to the shortage of horses (after all, they were still poor), they had to rent carriages to take their subordinates on their way slowly. The journey from the Five Lakes area and the hinterland of the kingdom to the northwest frontier was of course thousands of miles long, boring and boring.
However, Liu Yifei would not let this long journey go to waste——
First of all, as soon as he got close to the royal city, he simply dismounted and gave up his own mount...
Don't doubt it!
Liu Yifei would definitely not let those old men under his command ride horses in vain, and then turn around to ride the carriage. The weight he carried on his body was too much for a normal packhorse, and even those thin carriages of questionable quality were not good.
carry~
The main purpose of giving up his cheap war horses is to further adapt the team's subordinates, including Dasji, to the riding skills.
Although Liu Yifei had previously requested them and entrusted the young nobles who helped recruit people to provide them with some ordinary pack horses to train them in the most basic riding skills during the period when Liu Yifei was "stocking the team".
But those pack horses couldn't even compare to the "instructor" Liu Yifei got unexpectedly in normal mode, let alone the war horse Liu Yifei had right now - even if it was just the worst quality war horse, it was still within the standard of a true war horse! 2
The physique and strength attributes of the first level!
Even this horse alone can probably overwhelm the combat power of most of Liu Yifei's men when they are "unarmored and without blades". The [war horse] can barely be classified as a "war beast"~
Such a "big guy" can't be compared to ordinary draft horses?
The feeling and difficulty of riding are completely different~
If it weren't for Liu Yifei's talent of [Driver's Heart] and his preliminary communication with the war horse, most of Liu Yifei's men would have struggled to even ride on it smoothly...
In addition to taking advantage of the opportunity of normal travel to further deepen the riding skills of his subordinates, Liu Yifei also trotted forward closely behind his own horse in a fully armed state. In addition to escorting his subordinates, Liu Yifei also made a plan for himself.
The content of "weight-bearing training" - after all, the "plot" time is limited. Riding on a horse leisurely is a life, and following a war horse with a heavy load is also a life~
Although it is difficult and tiring, people like Liu Yifei who have great ambitions and pursuits will naturally choose to be more cruel to themselves...
On this side, Liu Yifei led his NPC subordinates, both strong and weak, and the monitors to move toward the northwest of Erathia little by little. On the other side, everyone in his real team was also "all over the world" to explore the potential of their respective roles and contribute to the team's success.
Continue to contribute to future development~
Although Liu Yifei's team is now very small, it has been initially divided into "three branches" in an exaggerated manner. This is even invisibly consistent with the arrangement of the "Jiangshan" Guild:
The "Eri Team" headed by Cupid, the Shadowless Bandit and Dance Mom. Now Cupid and the Shadowless Bandit have "ambushed" Jenny to serve as an outpost, while Dance Mom has completed the preliminary birthplace plot.
Later, she also began to try to lead the local "guards" she recruited to move closer to Jenny's route. Finally, she considered joining the other two people and starting a plot around Jenny's main plot...
The "Brakada Squadron" headed by Xiao Wu and Wu's father has now been reunited. Even Wu's father directly withdrew a large amount of cash payment from Liu Yifei and began to slowly pay attention to the surroundings in the battle plot.
Ordinary players purchase game currency, of course, the premise is that the premium cannot be too high...
Now in the story mode, the currency value in the campaign world is extremely high!
Although after several months of exploration, the "gold production" ability of the player group has been greatly improved, the problem is that as the overall strength of the players gradually improves, the demand for weapons and equipment is increasing, and the overall consumption desire of the players continues to rise.
There is almost not enough money in everyone’s hands~
As a result, everyone has the desire to buy game currency, which makes the game currency in the story mode have been fired at a price far higher than the original unit price in the normal mode when the game was launched, and because the communication methods of players in the story are severely limited.
, even if many investors want to purchase game coins at a large premium, it is difficult, but it has further raised the average purchase price of game coins!
Of course Liu Yifei doesn't want to be taken advantage of at this time...
But the growth of a "spell caster" itself means two core points - "a sufficient and large amount of knowledge reserves" and "a larger amount of money to burn"...
This is something that cannot be avoided~
Fortunately, Dad Wu himself has extremely high professional qualities, and he is serving his own little princess, so he must be 200% careful and will not easily let outsiders take advantage of him...
In particular, he also plans to form a capable "Spellcaster Guard Group" with himself as the core. In the future, he will serve as a guard for his wife and daughter. However, he will have to rely on Liu Yifei, the "big boss", to pay the bills. At this time, he will start to do something.
Of course, I will be more attentive...
And the last one is the "Elasia Detachment" headed by Liu Yifei himself, including Yi Wanqing, born for war. Even in Liu Yifei's conception, even Xie Jiatong may be absorbed into this part in the future.
