Normally, the hero recruitment system updates three heroes every month, and once one of them is selected for recruitment, it will enter a half-year cooldown period.
The levels of heroes are divided into Elite, Excellent, Epic and Legend.
Legendary heroes also need some unique conditions to recruit, and heroes have different focuses. Some may be good at fighting, some may be well-intentioned in planning and command, and some may even be very good craftsmen.
The three newly refreshed heroes were all combat types. Ronan thought about accepting the infantry type Kress and the cavalry type Aldridge, so he clicked on a bow without hesitation.
A hero's trial.
This outstanding female hero named "Wolf Tamer" Yatan is a jungle ranger who was raised by wild wolves.
She was raised by wild wolves from a young age until she was found and adopted by an old hunter when she was twelve years old, who taught her the human way of survival and the skills of using arrows and setting traps.
Moreover, Yatan can also use her familiarity with wolves to train those ferocious and cunning beasts to become her partners.
Later, the war broke out, and the lords exploited the civilians in order to raise money and food. The old hunter was killed by the lord's guards in a conflict.
In order to avenge the old hunter, Yatan organized a group of civilians who also hated the lord, trained them and led them to ambush the lord's supply team in the forest, plunder the lord's property and secretly distribute it to those who lived in poverty.
The dream trial for recruiting her was to lead her subordinates to deal with the later encirclement and suppression by the lord. The trial was not too difficult. Ronan could use a bow and arrow, but he could not say how powerful he was, so he pulled out his scimitar and squatted down on the Cao Yin people, letting the others
Harassment by people with bows and arrows.
Even with a certain amount of casualties, the lord's encirclement and suppression was repelled and the trial was completed.
Ronan was exhausted from two consecutive dream trials, but he still couldn't bear it and chose to ride out to find a hidden place to recruit soldiers and heroes.
After speaking to the butler, Ronan led most of his subordinates on horseback out of the manor.
After riding a horse, he ran far away and came to a deserted forest. He ordered his subordinates to spread out and explore the surrounding area. After confirming that no one was around, Ronan asked his subordinates to guard the area and then began his recruitment drive.
First, three heroes were recruited. The first was Kress with 10 gladiators wearing various armors and holding various weapons. They slowly appeared in the open space in front of Ronan from virtual reality.
Ronan finally saw this muscular man who was over 1.9 meters tall, wearing simple leather armor, and his exposed body was covered with scars.
Kress looks to be in his thirties, with short stubble, flat hair, strong facial lines, sharp edges, and bright eyes. He gives people a sense of oppression when he stands there.
Ronan chose Kress's blood boiling specialty to be blessed on his body. Having experienced the trial dream using Kress's body, he knew the power of this specialty.
"Welcome, Kress!"
Kress was a taciturn man. He lowered his head and beat his chest to show respect, and then led his subordinates behind him to stand aside and make way for them.
Then Ronan recruited Yatan, and in the same way as Kress, Yatan also appeared in the open space in front of Ronan. Next to her was a giant wolf that was a little bigger than an adult tiger.
Her animal companion is the dire wolf Moony.
Yatan also comes with a 20-member Jungle Ranger team. The Jungle Ranger is an above-average unit and is not as powerful as the Vaegian Marksman.
Ronan also happened to be preparing to recruit some archer soldiers and mix the previous ten Vaegian sharpshooters into Yatan's men to form an archer unit.
Ronan chose the marksman from Yatan's specialties to add to his own specialties, which increased Ronan's ability to use a bow.
"Welcome, Yatan!"
"Haha, Commander, just buy me a drink!" Yatan, who was about the same height as Ronan and tall, wearing fur armor and showing his strong wheat-colored arms and thighs, said to Ronan with a smile.
There are three scars on the left side of her heroic face that look like scratches from the claws of wild beasts, adding a bit of wildness to her.
Well, he is a bold and generous man! Ronan smiled in response, motioned for Yatan to get out of the way, and stood next to Kress to wait.
Next up is the highlight, Aldridge, the "Pale Calamity". Judging from his title, he is not an easy guy to get along with, and Ronan is still a little nervous.
Aldridge, covered in jet black armor and riding an equally dark red-eyed horse, appeared in front of Ronan.
Aldridge does not have many soldiers, only two knights who are all in black, but the armor is not as gorgeous and ferocious as Aldridge.
Ronan struggled with Aldridge's numerous and seemingly strong traits, and finally chose the Cruel Ruler trait.
Because this feature can reduce troop wages by 20%, directly increase command skills by 5 points, and enable basic command skills to exceed the upper limit of level 10.
Although it cannot directly increase combat effectiveness, it effectively and intuitively increases Ronan's troop limit and reduces troop consumption.
"Welcome, Aldridge!"
"I will become the lingering fear of all your enemies!" A cold and hoarse voice came from under Aldridge's helmet. At the same time, he and the other two black knights behind him also dismounted and walked towards Ronan.
Knighthood.
The two knights attached to Aldridge are called Eclipse Knights. They are members of the elite knights formed by Aldridge. They are both up to level 45.
Ronan Ye can directly recruit them, but the system prompts that they need small shadow essences and gems worth 20 points each in the honor store.
Ronan also learned that many high-level arms may need similar things in the future.
What surprised Ronan most about Aldridge was his high troop limit.
Ronan himself has 135 players, Kress has 55 players, Yatan has 45 players, and Aldridge has a full upper limit of 180 players.
This brings the total number of system troops under Ronan's command to 415, and this number will continue to increase as the reputation of Kress and others in this world increases.
Although this number is difficult to achieve on a large-scale battlefield, it is enough to determine the outcome of a local battle or a small battlefield.
It is a pity that Ronan does not have enough funds to form an army. Considering the monthly consumption of the army and the initial funds for the next plan, Ronan cannot massively expand the army.
Therefore, Ronan only recruited forty-five senior Nord warriors and twenty-five Vaegian archers to fill up the troops of Kress and Yatan.
His own men remained unchanged. The existing manpower was enough to maintain the daily inspection and protection of the manor. Ronan was also planning to let Aldridge and his two knights change their clothes and pretend to be his new followers.
After all, their previous outfits were too conspicuous.
