This city on the top of a mountain is extremely majestic. The city walls and towers made of black rocks guard the heart of the dragon in the south. Now the headquarters of the 'Drywood' organization is also located here. You can see it everywhere on the roads in the mountains.
Personnel wearing white and green robes.
There is a special room in the tall castle stargazing tower.
Bookshelves are placed on the circular wall, and there is a large desk by the window, with a moon clock and an orange star lamp on it.
The lamp base has a rod-like structure, and a large and lovely orange star hangs on one side. At night, it emits soft orange light.
Next to the big orange star is a white crescent moon. The moon is engraved with silver symbols to mark the time scale, and in the middle is a pointer in the sky that rotates slowly.
The owner of this room is none other than one of the founders of Dryas, our sage girl, Lorraine Hill.
Near noon, a slight sound of footsteps came from the stairs in the tower, and then with a creak, the wooden door opened, and a girl with light green hair walked in.
After Lorraine Hill came to the room, he first threw himself on the bed and rested for a while, then slowly sat up.
Wow, I'm so tired. I feel like there are a lot of things that I have to deal with, but I feel sleepy again.
Sitting on the bed, the girl looked a little shaky, then leaned on the quilt beside her and continued to take a nap with her eyes closed.
After using her power that day and splitting the twelve holy swords, Lorraine Hill fell into the sequelae of sleepiness again. Although this was unavoidable, now that the war was about to begin, she had to support it and not let it go.
Fall asleep by yourself.
The sun in the sky slowly straightened up, and the sunlight gradually turned under the window sill, and then no longer shone into the room, but the extremely bright afternoon light still filled the world outside the window.
The sky was exceptionally blue, and the gentle wind blew the curtains, making a rolling sound.
After continuing to take a nap for two hours, the girl with light green hair finally woke up again and slowly opened her eyes.
After stretching, she slowly stood up, walked to the desk and sat down, leaning on the table. The wind blowing her hair beside her ears blew up and down from time to time.
After a short while, Lorraine Hill regained his energy as if he had finally recharged his batteries, and began to think about the report he had received this morning.
After deciding to use the War of Liberation to solve the internal problems of the empire, the 'Drywood' organization quickly took action. Now the organizational structure has been perfected, and many things can be mobilized well without the girl having to deal with them personally.
Everyone has grown up.
I remember when the uprising just started a few years ago, except for Lubin who had some organizational experience, everyone else was a novice, so the girl was very busy at that time.
Now not only are there sufficient manpower, many members have also matured, and some things can be prepared in advance even if the girl has not said anything.
If we want to express it in terms of systematic evaluation, it was probably Lv.0 (novice) before, but now it has grown to the Lv.4 (elite) stage.
In the Southern Territory, although there are no Sequence 8s except for Lorraine Hill, there are currently 9 Sequence 7 Transcendents, which is surprising.
When thinking of this, the girl also used a pen to write down familiar or unfamiliar names on the page.
Original Sequence 7·Circulating Wind Sword, Bofill
Natural Sequence 7·Green Bee Sharp Eyes, Carissa
Natural Sequence 7·Song of Fenfeng, Yin Huanbi
Many of them have advanced recently, and Lorraine Hill has just become familiar with them. However, their origins and experiences were reported to the girl in detail by Lu Bin, and now they are gradually clarifying the relationship.
Demon Sequence 7·Flame Scarlet Sword, Sally.
This is a swordsman from the 'Fire-Eyed Warbler', because the 'Fairy Wood' gradually unified the Southern Territory, and then they also expressed their surrender and were accepted and absorbed by the organization. Speaking of which, Sally also had a relationship with Lorraine Hill.
.That year in the territory of Viscount Moreau, it was this female swordsman holding the scarlet sword who led the men to rob the execution ground.
Magic Sequence 7·The Power of Prism, Ekpu.
This person from the 'Transparent Stone' is a master of magic and is now the leader of the alchemists in the organization. The 'Transparent Stone' was an organization founded by the wizards who hid after the destruction of Oz, although it was very weak in the past.
, but now with the recovery of the Southern Territory, its doctrines have begun to spread within the organization, and there is a faint trend of re-establishing the Star Gazing Mystery Academy.
Original Sequence 7·Circulating Wind Sword, Bofill
This businessman from the Southern Territory originally united with the Seventh Ring. Now that the Seventh Ring has been transformed and selectively absorbed by the organization, this genius has quickly shown his prominence. His swordsmanship is very superb, and he defeated the members of the faction last year.
The leader is now the master of the 'Sword of the Ringing Wind' faction. This faction teaches the original sequence and swordsmanship, and many businessmen will send their children to learn the skills for self-defense.
Natural Sequence 7·Green Bee Sharp Eyes, Carissa
After the elves gradually retreated to the forest, there were fewer and fewer natural sequence factions in the empire. The "Green Bee Sting" faction to which Carissa belonged was one of the few that continued to be inherited, but its style had already become its own.
It is far from the concept left by the elves. The extraordinary skills of this faction mainly focus on 'swiftness' and 'poison sword'. It is not the assassination-style poisoning, but the use of various poisons to the soldiers as needed during the battle.
The blade is enchanted and very powerful.
Natural Sequence 7·Song of Fenfeng, Yin Huanbi
This one is from the 'Witch of Four Seasons', which is the witch sect taught and trained by Lorraine Hill. Yin Huanbi is practicing the branch of 'Fire Leaf Witch'. He was originally in the perfection stage of Sequence 6. Now after the girl returns,
, after some guidance, he was quickly promoted to Sequence 7. In addition, it can be seen from the name that this person is from the East, and his parents were originally doctors who came to the Western Continent to look for medicinal materials. Due to the changes in the world, the two continents were cut off from shipping routes.
, so he settled down in the south.
Although the number of people in Sequence 7 is still far behind the other duchies in the empire, considering that the Southern Territory has gone through many hardships and subversions, it is already quite difficult to recover in such a short period of time.
The existence of high-level extraordinary beings is particularly important in the war in the world of Yinvar. If the opponent is not restrained by extraordinary beings of the same level and is allowed to use it at will, the destructive power produced will be astonishing.
Although there are legends about the existence of invincible legions or knights that can compete with high-level extraordinary beings and even challenge sequence 9, such soldiers with extraordinary strength, extremely determined will, and well-trained soldiers are actually extremely rare.
During the heyday of the West Wind Kingdom, there were about three branches. Although there were more branches in the empire, they were scattered across the vast royal territory and the four major duchies, making it almost impossible for ordinary people to see them.
Thinking about the elite legions that the southern border could now offer, Lorraine Hill continued to write down a few lines of names.
The Bilin Halberd Army, all members of the Natural Sequence 4 or Dragon Sequence 4 or above, numbering about 2,400, are stationed on the Silver Peak Mountain, guarding the mountain fortress leading to the central part of the empire.
The Red Dragon Knights, all members of Dragon Sequence 6 or above, with a total of 52 people, are stationed in the capital of Falfna. They are used to deal with emergencies and can quickly provide support to various places.
The Prism Mage Team, all members of the Magic Sequence 5 or above, numbering about 340 people, is stationed in the Forsaken Wilderness. They can jointly cast large-scale war spells. They are currently supporting the local alchemy workshop and working on various large-scale golems.
The Phantom Wind Swift Sword Regiment, all members of Natural Sequence 4 or Original Sequence 4 or above, has about 1,200 people, scattered in various strongholds on the border. The headquarters is located in Yamasakura City. They mainly serve as scouts, or special operations, destroying the enemy's logistics, etc.
Work.
The Nanfeng Fleet has all marine sequence 2 or above, and some have reached sequence 6. It has twenty-six new warships. Currently, one-third of the warships are used in projects to escort and combat sea monsters, and other ships are on standby at any time. It has many sailors.
Coming from the southern islands, they are one of the few foreign legions in the southern territory.
The Fire Thorns Cavalry Regiment, all members of the War Sequence 3 or above, and some have reached Sequence 5, with a number of about 30,000, are elite mobile musketeers currently stationed in fortresses on the border.
In addition, there are golem troops created by alchemists. The number of Sequence 4 golems is about 2200, the number of Sequence 5 golems is about 600, the number of Sequence 6 golems is 126, the Sequence 7 golems are 23, and the Sequence 8 golems are
Like 1 and a half. The reason why I say half is because one of them is not finished.
In addition, there are the standing legions of Sequence 1-2, with a number of about 400,000, equipped with muskets, sabers, some war horses and cannons.
After summarizing, Lorraine Hill looked at the above data and couldn't help but compare it with the Crancia legion in his memory.
It has to be said that this data is far from that of Crancia back then, but considering that today is a world after the change of heaven and earth, the extraordinary system is not yet fully mature, and it is normal for the overall level to regress compared to the past.
Nowadays, Sequence 7 can be said to be geniuses and rare figures in various families, but in the past, various countries had established elite Sequence 7 legions, such as the 'Blood Wing Red Dragon Knights' of the Pascal family, and the 'Hegemony' of the Southern Islands.
The Fierce Armored Dragon', the 'Silver Bell Mage Group' of the Frost Alliance.
The current empire is divided into three. The Eastern Empire nominally owns the Eastern Territory and the Emerald Forest, the Western Empire owns the Western Territory and the Northern Territory, and the Southern Empire is independent and does not recognize the emperor's rule.
Considering that the Eastern Empire has the presence of elves, it may not be possible to liberate it peacefully, so the current main opponent is the Western Empire, which is the alliance led by the Griffin family.
After thinking about it, Lorraine Hill listed the elite legions of the Western Empire on paper. Most of them were the private armies of various big nobles, such as Earl Wolfthorn's 'Wolf Fang Cavalry', Earl Mahogany's 'Sequoia'.
Longbow Corps', Viscount Cidi's White Dove Tax Collector Corps, etc. Their strength is uneven. Although the individual strength is not low, when it comes to discipline and military quality, I am afraid it is not as good as the standing army in the south.
The only thing to pay attention to is a few special teams. The strength of these legions is well-known in the empire, and most of them did not participate in the Western Expedition that year and have been completely preserved.
First of all, there is the 'Gryphon Knights' for which the Salius family is famous. All its members are above Sequence 5, and there are about 1,000 people. They all hold thunder guns, are fully armored, and are extremely ferocious. In addition to these formal Griffin Knights,
, there is also the 'Vulture Feather Retinue' that accompanies it in combat, with a total number of 3-4 members, about 4,000 in number. They also ride griffons. Although there is no penetrating thunder gun, all kinds of equipment are also very complete. They have always been
He is a reserve member of the Griffin Knights.
In addition to the roaring griffons in the sky, there are also the majestic lions on the ground, the "White Lion Knights", whose members are all above sequence 5 and number about 500. They wear white armor, have lion manes on their shoulders, and hold classic lances.
The Lion Buckler is an admirable knightly order in the empire. Its members' morale and virtues are also quite outstanding. It was a classical knightly order established by the Western Region in order to move closer to and admire the center of the empire.
After talking about the Western Region, let’s talk about the special teams in the Northern Region.
The "Knights of the Death Scythe" stationed in the Withered Fortress, this undead knights who can't tell whether they are dead or alive, are the "Knights of the Crescent Death Scythe" passed down from the Mercury Dynasty, and their members are all undead.
Sequence 5 and above, the number of people is probably between 300-500, the data is difficult to determine, and the news of the Withered Fortress has always been rarely known to outsiders.
The elite "Raven Knights" of the Trey family, all of whom are Sequence 5 or above. There are about 800 people. They wear cold iron armor, drive dead horses, and hold armor-piercing crow's mouth war hammers. They can deal with heavy armor units.
It can easily break through defenses and has strong resistance to spell damage.
The "Death Wizard Team" distributed in the Wizard Tower in the North has all members of Necromancer Sequence 4 or above, and a few have reached Sequence 7. The number of people is about 3,000. It is a rare Necromancer Corps on the mainland. It is generally not seen on weekdays.
They will gather together and focus on their own research or experiments, and will only fight together when called upon. Although they have not taken action for hundreds of years, considering that they once summoned hundreds of thousands of undead spirits covering the wilderness during the war with Oz,
The army, this mysterious team, has always been feared by other nobles in the empire.
Finally, there is the 'Black Feather Witch' affiliated to the Wise-Eyed Crow Witch. The number of members is variable. There are about 600 people above Sequence 4. It is the only remaining witch faction on the mainland. They usually serve as advisors and tutors to the nobles.
, doctors, etc., rarely appear in front of ordinary people.
After analyzing this, Lorraine Hill hit his head with a pen, feeling a little stressed.
I always feel like we can't beat them based on the data, but in actual combat, our willpower and training should give us a big advantage, so it's not like we have no chance.
Although I believe in the strength of my side, I still feel a little uneasy as it has not been tested on the battlefield.
Finally, Lorraine Hill looked towards the south of the Western Territory on the map.
Jeran, I gave you the holy sword forged by fairies, but you must not let down my hard work.
Most of the materials used for the twelve holy swords came from the subspace of the 'Land of Fairies' and were the legacy of the Winged Sun of God, and the power was the split part of Lorraine Hill from the crown. These consumed the girl.
Less energy.
In fact, she didn't expect to create so many holy objects at the beginning, but maybe it was a whim that day. Recalling the past myths and legends, she, as a fairy or goblin in the lake, should be given twelve items to correspond to the legendary ones.
of numbers.
After thinking about this, Lorraine Hill yawned again.
Well, let's go get some sleep.
The wind outside the window is still blowing, and from time to time it rolls the pages pressed on the table, and the names and symbols become vivid again in history.
