total war rise of empire

Chapter 77 The price paid

Walking along the dark wooden stairs, when he came to the door of the prayer room on the second floor of the Temple of War, Lei Zihao waved his hand to let the attendant behind him holding a torch to wait outside the door, and pushed the door in alone.

As usual, Freya was dressed in a black robe, her hair was loosely draped over her shoulders, her hands were placed on her chest, her head was slightly lowered and her eyes were closed, she whispered a prayer that Lei Zihao couldn't hear clearly.

After Lei Zihao pushed the door and entered, Freya stopped praying unhurriedly, and slowly opened her eyes, the black pupils quietly reflected Lei Zihao's figure in a red cloak.

"My lord governor, although the power of faith has reached a critical point, you need to upgrade to the third-level war altar before you can start the lottery drawing ceremony again. I wonder what your order is?"

Lei Zihao stood with his hands behind his back, jokingly said, "I'm here to find you, can't I have other things besides drawing a lottery? For example, talk about life, talk about ideals..."

There was an autumn light in Freya's eyes, avoiding Lei Zihao's fiery gaze, and replied calmly: "My life and ideal are to protect the life and safety of the governor, and to support the governor's hegemony, this is nothing to talk about. .”

"Hey, the high priests of the other two big temple systems are not as boring as you, Freya, are you so serious just kidding, aren't you tired of living?"

Freya shook her head lightly, and said earnestly: "Compared to the martial arts training and mental torture I have received since I was a child, my current life is like being in heaven, and I am very satisfied."

Lei Zihao knows that every character created by the system has his own past and memories, which is why those system characters have their own special abilities, so he didn't ask about Freya's childhood experience, the purpose of his coming here Not to pick up girls, but...

"Freya, can your combat power continue to improve?"

"Of course, I was born for war. Every time I fight against a powerful enemy, I will gain self-sublimation, if I don't die in battle!
Generally speaking, my current combat power should be higher than that of the great knight Wang Lei who died in my hands, but not much stronger. According to the rumors about the strength of the knight mentor I got recently, I have become famous in the human world one-on-one. The long-standing knight mentor, the chances of winning are very low.

However, I am looking forward to fighting against a real knight mentor. That is a step up for me. If I don’t fight against stronger ones, I will never be able to perceive my shortcomings. I have one such opportunity. "For the first time, Freya used a pleading tone to Lei Zihao!
It is not difficult to see that Freya has an extraordinary desire to fight against the strong, as if this is her life's goal!

"This... knight mentors are rare on the Eurasian continent, and it is not easy to meet them...

By the way, I know that you are different from others. Do you know the strength of the high priests of the other two temple systems? "

Since he was warned by the system, Lei Zihao's own safety has been raised to the highest alert level, and he urgently needs powerful bodyguards!
Freya has already admitted that she is not as good as a knight mentor, so she can only start from the number!

Freya hesitated for a moment: "I didn't know much about the high priests of other temple systems before they appeared. I only know that the high priests of the Temple of Love and the High Priest of the Temple of Wealth are women."

Freya paused, as if remembering something, and added: "They are all very beautiful young women!"

Freya said these words so solemnly, Lei Zihao's old face couldn't hold back immediately, no matter what he heard, Lei Zihao felt that his image in Freya's eyes was so 'noble'...

"I don't need to focus on explaining whether this... is beautiful or not. Let's talk about their combat effectiveness..."

Freya glanced at Lei Zihao, who was pretending to be serious, with a little doubt, thinking that the Governor-General of her own family doesn't like the beauty in her arms the most?
Li Qingmei, the eldest princess of Siris, was tossed about by her governor...

Although Freya is a little innocent, she is not stupid. After feeling that Lei Zihao didn't want to delve into this topic, she immediately changed her words: "I don't know the specific combat power of the other high priests, but the Temple of War is a symbol of force and conquest. , the high priest of the Temple of War is the most powerful existence, and the high priests of other temple systems cannot beat me one-on-one."

After hearing this, Lei Zihao sighed in disappointment and said, "As good as you are, can we train a lot?"

Freya shook her head firmly and said: "Maybe the governor doesn't understand the difficulty of personal combat training!

An ordinary person needs to practice martial arts and physical fitness since childhood, and it takes at least ten years before he can reach the combat effectiveness of a formal knight!

For example, each of the Spartan soldiers under the governor's command is a strong and healthy baby boy who was carefully selected at birth, and began cruel elimination training from an early age. To breed it to survive in mountainous jungles full of wild beasts, at least one adult wolf must be killed with a simple weapon to qualify!

Otherwise, it is a corpse!
This is also the reason why every Spartan warrior has excellent personal fighting ability, they are all experienced from life and death!
However, even so, having the combat power of a formal knight is the limit of a Spartan warrior, because the physical fitness of a formal knight is the ultimate in human flesh!
If you want to break through to a higher rank of Grand Knight, you need not only long-term hard training, but also opportunities, talents, and even willpower that is different from ordinary people!
Each of the prerequisites is an essential factor. If one is missing, this person will not be able to reach the height of the Great Knight in his entire life!
Therefore, formal knights can be trained in small batches with a lot of manpower and material resources, but starting from the big knights, it has become the privilege of those with outstanding talents!
Those knight mentors who have been famous for a long time, all of them have unusual personal opportunities to achieve it!

As for the Grand Knight Commander, I'm afraid he is a rare martial arts prodigy..."

"Uh, I didn't expect that the restrictions on the great knight are so great. No wonder in the human world, a great knight can be treated like a small nobleman if he doesn't do anything..."

Freya scanned Lei Zihao's body with her eyes, and whispered in a lotus tone: "My lord, although the shortcut can quickly improve your physical fitness, it also has an irreversible flaw."

"What? Are you saying that my physical fitness, which has been improved through the essence of qi and blood, is flawed?!" Lei Zihao's face changed drastically!
