Is it finally my turn? Paige immediately looked at him excitedly.
"Now that you have mastered the Immortal Phantom Sword, I will teach you 'Punic tactics'."
"Punic tactics are the pinnacle of guerrilla tactics. It emphasizes giving full play to the greatest advantages of guerrillas on the battlefield and proactively choosing the location and timing to engage the enemy, thereby creating an opportunity to kill with one strike."
"In general, it is a tactic that requires intuition on the battlefield and requires very strict awareness and positioning, but I believe it is the most suitable tactic for you."
"Mia." Ask turned around again and looked at the thief girl.
"I will teach you the 'Double Sword Assassination Technique'. Although it is also a dual-wielding weapon, its essence is completely different from the barbarian tactics."
"You must use two minds at once, treat your left hand and right hand as different individuals, and be completely free to use two different tactics. In this way, your enemy will feel as if they are being attacked by two people at the same time."
After explaining the subsequent career paths of the four melee output players in the group, Asker looked at the remaining girls, pondered for a moment, and then said:
"Let's do this for now, I'll make arrangements later."
The four girls looked at each other, and they could see the disappointment on each other's faces.
There is nothing that can be done about this. Although Asker is a weapons master, there is no doubt that his fighting style is biased toward close combat, and he is more comfortable teaching tactics in this area.
Asker also knows a lot about firearms, but as for arcana, mind and healing, he is a little out of his depth. Even a weapons master cannot dabble in so many fields at the same time...
"Captain!" Sheila suddenly raised her hand, "I want to learn swordsmanship!"
Learning swordsmanship? Asker is a little surprised. For Sheila's "Quality Mage" bloodline, the four sequences it possesses are "wisdom", "storm", "meteor" and "light". It can be said to be a pure spellcasting profession.
He has no abilities related to swordsmanship.
However, this can have an unexpected effect, right?
Everyone thought she was a mage and rushed forward with all kinds of spells, but Sheila pulled out a long sword...
"Okay." Asik nodded, "Then I will teach you the career path of a magic swordsman. Hold the sword in your right hand and cast spells with your left hand."
Could it still be like this? Nora and Medea were also surprised. They originally thought that this training would be compromised by the group leader again, but they didn't expect that they could take the initiative like Sheila.
"Then I want to learn how to shoot a gun!" Nora raised her hands and shouted.
"I want to learn too." Medea was not to be outdone, "I want to learn swordsmanship and spearmanship."
"Everything has been arranged." Ask asked, dumbfounded, "Everything will be arranged for you."
After saying that, he seemed to remember something, looked at Hood who was lying under the tree reading comics outside, and asked:
"Hood, do you want to learn something?"
"Noooooo!" Hoodla said in a long voice, without looking away from the comic at all.
This was also expected by Asker. After all, with Hood's lazy temperament, asking him to learn swordsmanship would be no less difficult than inviting a senior geek to go out to play ball and pick up girls.
"Okay." Asker said, "Then let's talk about the 'Trinity' tactics first..."
At this time, a Steel Cross mercenary hurriedly walked over from the opposite side and whispered a few words to Asik.
"Is there something strange happening ahead?"
"Yes."
After the demon tide, the changes gradually increased.
Asik sighed in his heart and called the girls to follow him, just in time to use this change as a practical exercise.
——————
When everyone arrived, they saw the people of the Iron Cross standing solemnly, and opposite them were the knights in armor, with clear lines on both sides.
Andrea and Herman were talking to an old nobleman. The latter raised his head and scanned the people here lightly.
Asker almost immediately recognized this NPC, Otto, Duke of Carinthia, a great nobleman in the Holy Solomon Empire.
If in the original game world of "Iron and Fire", the history of the Eastern Solomon Empire is relatively consistent with/drawn from reality, then the history of the Holy Solomon Empire is completely mixed and confusing, with prominent families from various Shinra periods in different periods.
Everything is intertwined and arranged in the game.
In addition, these Franks are accustomed to naming their children after their respected elders, so the names of noble NPCs become even more difficult to remember and difficult to distinguish. The most common ones are various "Otto", "Henry" and "Conn".
"Ladd" "Herman".
For example, the current Emperor of the Holy Solomon Empire is named Otto, and his father is also named Otto. For the convenience of distinction, people privately call his father Otto I, and His Majesty the Emperor Otto II.
Shi means the "first/second Otto" in the family.
If His Majesty the Emperor gives birth to a son in the future and wants to inherit the glorious name of these three generations, he will be called Otto III.
The problem is that the name Otto is not only used by the royal family. Since there is no concept of "taboo", other nobles can also use it. For example, the Duke of Carinthia in front of me is also named Otto.
Since no one in the Duke's own family was named Otto before, the Duke himself was called Otto I...
So, how to distinguish Duke Otto I from his late father Otto I, the current emperor?
So people invented the "nickname method" and the "fiefdom naming method". For example, the Duke of Carinthia is conventionally called "Otto of Worms", but players are too lazy to remember these names and just call him "Kah"
"Duke of Lincia", it's all over.
The Duke of Carinthia is a spirited old man, about sixty years old. He is also wearing armor and sword and has sharp eyes.
Under his seemingly scrutinizing gaze, the girls looked away unnaturally, especially Eleanor, who wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl in.
Only Ask remained calm and smiling, and when the Duke of Carinthia looked over, he gave him a slight nod.
"That's it, let's wait and negotiate an agreement with my cabinet ministers." The Duke of Carinthia's eyes finally rested on Eleanor, then he withdrew his gaze and said to Andrea and Hermann, "I'll go there first.
Rest in the camp nearby."
After the Duke led the people away, Andrea turned around and said hello to Aske.
"What mutation?" Asked Asik.
"It's hard to say, it's too weird." Andrea lowered her voice and said:
"Ahead is Loonfield, a town with a population of over 10,000. All residents disappeared overnight."
"I guess, in addition to the residents disappearing, monsters also appeared, right?" Ask said.
"Yes." Andrea said, "all kinds of monsters. The most terrifying thing is that these monsters are like ordinary town residents, walking and talking normally on the streets of the town. The scouts even saw monsters walking on the streets.
Shopping for groceries and bargaining with street vendors who are also monsters."
"Then we need in-depth observation." Ask said calmly, "Have you ever had close contact?"
"Not yet." Andrea said, "His Excellency, the Duke of Carinthia, is willing to pay us according to the normal mutation tasks and hire us to help solve this mutation. Therefore, we plan to discuss it with the Duke's cabinet ministers first.
Negotiate a suitable price.”
This was obviously asking Cang Qingjian for his opinion. Ask smiled and said:
"I think the Duke's price will be satisfactory."
Andrea laughed and was very satisfied with the joining of Cang Qingjian and others, so she took Aske to a meeting with the Duke's people.
After telling the girls to stay where they were, Aske left with Andrea, Herman and others.
The girls stayed there a little bored, chatting with each other.
"Hey, Hood." Mia said, "Can you lend me some comics?"
"Okay." Hood agreed, took out his luggage from the carriage, rummaged around quickly, and found a comic book.
"Here, take it," Hood said.
"What kind of comic is this?" Mia looked at the name on the comic in surprise, "The Blue Sword single volume?"
