Chapter three hundred and seventy-eight new followers
John, who received the answer, was satisfied and waved his hand to cast his spiritual power. The team of seven people left moved together. After thinking about it, he added Colonel Henry in his hand.
Using his mind to stimulate the British officer's brain, he soon woke him up temporarily.
Henry, who was weak but still vigilant, looked around and gasped, and asked:
"You... are you Mr. John, did you save me?"
John nodded slightly and said seriously:
"Col. Henry, I think you know your condition too. You have been infected with a voodoo spell. If you don't get healed within half a day, you will soon be corroded from your soul and then confined your consciousness in your body.
Turn into a living zombie with a terrible voodoo.”
John's words made Colonel Henry's face turn blue. He had also seen many of these terrifying methods of colonial wizards, but it would be unacceptable to face this situation himself.
"Mr. John, are you saying this because there is a way to save me? I can pay you enough, and if I can't afford the price, I can also apply to the family..."
John shook his head and said:
"The way to save you is very simple, which is to pay your loyalty as the price. This kind of ceremony is witnessed by a supreme and great existence, and through you and I sign a master-servant contract in exchange for your chance to survive. Now you are facing two
A choice, should I wait for death or sign a contract with me..."
After hearing this, Colonel Henry fell into silence.
Whether to choose to die or to be loyal to a person and continue to survive is a more tangled question.
Of course he doesn't want to die. As a new nobleman in the British Empire who had just turned thirty and became the rank of colonel and was only one step away from the position of general, he was very much in the British military, where the children of powerful people were numerous.
Excellent young man.
Henry naturally was unwilling to end his life like this, give up his brilliant future, and die silently in this forest in South Africa.
But if he was asked to be a slave to a man, Henry, who was born in a noble family, was a little unwilling to accept it.
John seemed to see Henry's thoughts and said:
"Don't worry that I will regard you as a slave. You can refer to your loyalty to me as your king, and I will give you enough decent as you should be as followers."
Such words seemed to convince Colonel Henry and the Hutchs Expedition.
Who is loyal to you is not loyalty? Most of them are from royal states these days. Loyalty to the monarch is the duty of the people. Even if it is not a royal state, it is an emerging republic. Whether you are a soldier or a government employee, do you also have to be loyal to the Constitution?
?
In times of crisis, people seek profit and avoid harm is instinct. They often find excuses for their own behavior. The stubborn bulls who are stubborn are in the minority.
And for Henry, he thought more.
Since Mr. John can save his death, he obviously has great extraordinary power and may also gain a certain degree of benefit when he serves him in the future. In the future, he will inevitably be valued. After all, he will be in China.
As far as he knows, there are very few people who have mastered extraordinary powers.
So the colonel passed the hurdle in his heart and chose to accept this fate calmly.
Seeing that these people chose to accept it, John spoke again to confirm:
"Since you have decided to accept this transaction, if you want to get my help, you must recognize this transaction from the bottom of your heart. There is no resistance and give all your loyalty, otherwise the contract will not take effect!"
The reason why John added Henry, a Colonel soldier was because he observed the command process of the Colonel just now and found that this was also a relatively outstanding talent, especially with courage and determination, no matter what it was.
For the same reason, at least this colonel was the only officer who remained calm in a critical moment on the battlefield. In terms of military command, he was better than many soldiers he had ever seen.
Among the people he knew, only Condra, a swordsman in the Department of Military Theory at Rodriguez Academy, was able to match him.
You should know that Condra not only found the talents found by Rodriguez Academy from the Holy Imperial Army Academy, but also experienced at least five wars, and was promoted from a poor man to a civilian position as a civilian ceiling. This kind of elite even in the old continent
There are generally no second-rate powers in China, and only old powers like the Holy Empire, Franz and Brook have the foundation to cultivate a large number of outstanding officers.
Moreover, Colonel Henry received modern military education in this world in the 20th century, rather than semi-classical military education in the main world that basically remained before modern times and after the Renaissance, and had just had modern military theory budding due to the Steam Revolution.
When the earth entered the nineteenth century, due to competition such as resources, trade and colonies, it can be said that wars were frequent, and military changes were changed every twenty years. Before World War I, some emerging things appeared in a few years.
It makes many older generations feel dazzled and unable to accept it.
From World War I to World War II, in just 20 or 30 years, even nuclear eggs were created. In another fifty years, human beings will fully enter the information industry era. Do you think this speed of progress in civilization will be fast?
Therefore, Colonel Henry's high-quality military talents are very lacking in the Kingdom of Emsdan. After all, Emsdan has limited national strength and cannot train too many civilian officers. Instead, relying on the younger generation of noble officers to go to the military of the great powers.
Studying in colleges and universities, or asking the Sect Master's Holy Empire to support retired officers, is far from meeting the current size of Emsdan's army.
When the eight people heard John's words, it was related to their lives. They all became a little nervous and forced themselves not to resist. Then they saw an infinite golden light appearing from John, covering their vision.
The eight people only felt a supreme force in the darkness pressing on their heads. They had no intention of resisting, but now they involuntarily chose to surrender.
Soon the eight people disappeared beside the swamp. John closed his eyes and meditated for a while. When he opened his eyes again, a silver-white and bronze-colored card had appeared in his hand.
"Hatches Expedition?"
John was checking the attributes of the character's card this time and found that the system converted the seven Hutches into a silver card, the name was the Hutches Expedition Team, which was obviously because of the bond between the seven people.
Born.
This type of character card in the form of teams was always drawn by John and the others when they were playing games in their previous lives, but they were usually summoning troops without intelligence and could only obey the simple commands of the summoner.
The silver card of the Hutchis Expedition Team is different. It is released to a team of seven independent individuals with complete souls and IQs. It is basically no different from the previous seven explorers. The only thing that changes is their relationship with John
