Most of the demons who participated in the siege had dark red skin and huge bony horns on their heads, and their eyes were like two yellow rays of light. The gods they believed in were branded on the back of their huge heads, and their tongues that were several meters long flicked back and forth recklessly. Go, holding a huge serrated knife full of chaotic energy in his hand.

During the siege of the temple city, the confrontation between the Slann Demon Toad and the Chaos Demons can only be described as shaking the world and crying ghosts and gods.

Summon meteorites, trigger tsunamis, and turn the entire forest into bloodthirsty monsters. The power of the explosion is as powerful as the magic of nuclear bombs, and thousands of troops can be teleported in an instant, covering tens of kilometers of protective shields.

These powers, which are almost miraculous in the eyes of mortals, are nothing more than conventional means of combat.

The temple city 'City of Echoes' was the first to fall. It was the first place to be attacked by demons. The slann toads inside were killed, and the hatching pool that could hatch lizardmen was polluted.

Then more temple cities fell, and all their inhabitants became a dish in the demon's gluttonous feast.

Only the lizardmen in the south corresponding to the reality in southern Africa successfully wiped out the demon army in the south after paying the price of the death of a first-generation Slann Note 1. In addition, the lizardmen from all over the world were driven back to Lu by the demons. Squia.

Under the transformation of Slann's powerful magic, the Lustria continent itself has become a death trap to prevent intruders.Every tree, flower, and grass turned into a terrifying killing machine. They wiped out any creature that dared to step in, regardless of friend or foe. Even the Slann who created them could not prevent them from accidentally injuring the lizardmen.

The demons paid huge casualties to break through many obstacles and surrounded the temple city in Luskia, but the casualties themselves will not affect the demons, they cannot be killed, even if their bodies in reality are destroyed. It's just going back to the subspace for a period of time to re-accumulate strength.As for the loss of those local native cannon fodder, would the demons and evil gods care?

The brutal fighting that lasted for nearly a thousand years is coming to an end, and there are only a few temple cities left in the Slann and Lizardmen who can no longer attract the army of millions of Chaos demons.

Their eyes began to turn to the whole world, and the portals composed of chaotic energy opened one after another, and tens of thousands of chaotic legions walked into them and sent them to all parts of the world.

Old Continent, Ulthuan, World Mountains, Indy, Nippen, Cathay, Kurgan, Chaos Wasteland.

These are the destinations of demonic portals.

The great chaos invasion is about to begin, and the test of this world has officially begun.

There is not much time left for the lawful race.

..............................

Note 1: This Slann named 'chiccota' was taught by the ancient sage himself, and his magical attainments are unfathomable, so he was able to wipe out the demon army of the entire continent in one go.But with his death, these great magics were also lost.

Chapter 73 Personnel Changes

When all the dust settled, three days had passed since the battle.

It took three full days to deal with the chaotic creatures in the forest at the foot of the Annulli Mountains, and it also took three days to create enough coffins to transport the bodies of the dead elves.

Especially the mages brought by Cadrina, they were the most tiring group of people in the past two days, and they had to start collecting the elf souls floating in the battlefield almost as soon as they recovered their spirits.

Yes, soul.

In order to prevent the souls of the elves from falling into the hands of warp demons and spend endless time in pain and sinking, special spells and gems must be used to collect the souls of the war dead and enshrine them in the temple.Originally, there was no need for a mage to do this kind of thing specially. The elf gods believed by the dead would take the initiative to appear beside the dead elves and bring their souls to their own kingdom of God, but it was unreliable on such a large-scale battlefield The elf gods in the world sometimes don't appear in such a timely manner, so mages who are sensitive to various energies take on this responsibility.

Originally, this was the job of the priests, but this time the priests were not brought along with them.

The fetid mass graves burned for several days and nights before the corpses of the chaotic creatures inside were completely burned to ashes, including those trees that lost the support of chaotic energy. visible.

It wasn't until three days later that the Eagle Legion and the 'Tal-Anlek' army walked out of the forest and parted ways to return to their own stations.

The casualties of this operation were beyond everyone's expectations, and the Eagle Legion lost more than a quarter of its personnel. This victory can be described as a miserable victory.Many were depressed after losing some close comrades-in-arms, and the whole team remembered with grief the comrades-in-arms who were already lying in the coffin at this time.

Only Carter among them knows that this is just the beginning.

As the mysterious subspace demon said, it is the winter of 4500 BC in the Imperial Calendar, and there are still a few months at most before the Chaos army will shift its attention from the Luskia continent to the rest of the world. Then the war of annihilation will begin.By that time, the dead would not be able to fit in hundreds of coffins.

During the process of returning to the city of 'Tal-Drowder', the Eagle Legion encountered a considerable number of civilians who were returning to their homes under the escort of the citizen soldiers.

Seeing the happy and peaceful appearance of the elves in front of him, Carter felt irritated for no reason.

Knowing the general direction of the world's future, why doesn't he know the future fate of these elf civilians in front of him.

A mere Chaos Legion can disturb the entire Nagareth Kingdom for nearly a month and cannot produce and live normally. What if ten or hundreds of Chaos Legions come together?

………………

One day later, outside the city of 'Tal-Drowder', in the Eagle Legion barracks.

The dazed Carter followed his comrades back to the barracks in a daze. During this period, he remained silent, and he lay in bed all day after returning.

Legolas, Astolfo, and Lucana on the same team thought that he fell into this situation because he sent away the seriously injured 'Claux' with his own hands, so they didn't bother him all the time, and blocked those who wanted to The 'fans' communicating with Carter.

But in fact, Carter didn't fall into this situation because he sent 'Claux' away with his own hands. He was worried that more situations like 'Claux' would happen, so he lay silent on the bed for a whole Today, he was sorting out the memories of this time in his mind, while thinking about what he should do.

But on the second day, Carter couldn't continue to hide in the room and meditate.

The Eagle Legion has begun to review and distribute military merits and rewards for the battle to encircle and suppress Chaos creatures.

When it was Carter's turn, he realized that his reward was more than 500 gold crowns (also known as Sovereign or Golden Dragon Coins), which added up to several kilograms, and it was heavy to hold.

Aris Anar specially asked Carter to come to his camp to explain this. In theory, according to his contribution in the battle, Carter should get more, but the inventory of the city government of 'Tal-Drowder' is running out, so Carter can only be wronged for a while. For this reason, Aris Anar specially gave Carter a beautiful composite strong bow, which is obviously expensive.

Carter himself didn't care, the favor and friendship of an elf prince was more important than money.

"What are you going to do next? What do you think about the mage tower I mentioned to you last time? This wealth is enough for you to go to the 'Anlek' mage tower to learn. As long as you go through systematic study, you can easily control it. Use the wind of magic to make all kinds of magic props, which are expensive and precious items, and will definitely support you to continue your studies.

I will hire you into the Eagle Legion after you return from your studies and become an excellent mage. What do you think? "

After talking about the reward, Aris Anar brought up the Mage Tower again.

Carter has already thought about this and gave an answer.

"Master Legion...I don't want to go to 'Anleke' to study yet..."

If he had traveled ten years earlier, Carter might still have the leisure and elegance to learn the Wind of Magic, but now it is the eve of the great chaos invasion, and even if he goes to the Mage Tower, it is too late to complete his studies. In this case, he might as well stay in the army.

"That's it... Although I don't know why you don't want to go, but I respect your idea. This is a basic book that introduces the characteristics of the wind of magic. Take it back and learn how to avoid being affected by the warp space. And except for 'Ak Don't try other winds of Xia's magic. What you awakened is that the use of the flame system on 'Aksha' is inherently higher than that of other systems, so there will not be too much influence from the subspace, but other systems Getting the wind of magic is not necessarily the case.

If you are not careful, you may be affected by the demons of the subspace!You must remember what I just said! "

"Yes! Legion Commander, I will keep it in mind!..."

With Carter's assurance, Aris showed a relieved smile.

"However, I have long thought that you will refuse to go to the Mage Tower, so I drafted this new appointment. Here is the specific content."

Seeing that Arisanar, who was serious one second, turned into a smiling face the next, Carter felt that he was clearly calculated by him.Somewhat helplessly, he took the letter of appointment and read it.

"After the test of this battle, I feel that the training method and organization of the Eagle Legion are quite good! Therefore, I plan to expand the troops and increase the framework of the Eagle Legion to forty companies. I plan to appoint you as the new No. The captain of the 20th company, and sent here to 'Estari' (Note 1) to recruit and train recruits. Of course I won't let you go alone, you can take the seventh squad of the heavy weapon company as your team , go to 'Estari' to start training, they can lead your troops as officers, and you can just give me the promotion list at that time. As for the materials needed for training, let the local officials cooperate with you to mobilize them first, and if there are none, go to the 'Tower Er-Drowdle' asked for a transfer."

After listening to Aris Anar's explanation, Carter accepted the appointment calmly on the surface, but his heart exploded immediately.

"The population of 'Estari' is quite large, with a permanent population of more than 3000 people, and counting the surrounding affiliated villages, there are more than 5000 people.

When you get there, you have to train the No.20 First Company according to the new legion standards, and rectify the discipline of the local city defense army, and at the same time strengthen the city defense fortifications... In recent years, the invasion of chaos has become more frequent, and I feel that the next situation will be It's getting worse, so you must be fully prepared, and you must do it if the 'Estari' is surrounded by Chaos Legion and the town can stand by for help.

I will leave this task to the local officials to arrange, and you are responsible for assisting and training the army! ...These are your letter of appointment and various materials, take them here.Remember to take your new armor and clothing with you when you go back.I still have a lot of things to do, so I won't leave you..."

After explaining everything in one go, Arisanar asked his deputy to send Carter, who was still a little dazed, out of his tent, and plunged into the sea of ​​documents by himself. .

[I just became the company captain like this?He even became the chief military officer of a small town...]

..................................................................

Note 1: 'Estari' is a fictional city of mine.Ulthuan has not experienced all kinds of disasters and earthquakes at this point in time, so the territory of Nagareth is nearly half larger than that in the game and background, and it is normal to have many more towns and villages. Care about.

Chapter 74 Preparation

After receiving the letter of appointment, Carter took his original armor to the logistics officer and replaced it with a set of officer armor made of Iselama silver.

Iselama silver is much lighter than ordinary iron, but its defensive power is not compromised at all, and the fatigue resistance of metal is even better.

The helmet has also been upgraded from a normal bullet head to a wind-winged helmet, which is quite cool to wear, but even the wind-winged helmet is still tall and pointed, and the whole person is twenty centimeters taller when worn.This made Carter very puzzled. It is not uncommon for elves to have an average height of more than 1.8 meters and 1.9 meters. Why do they prefer this kind of helmet that is much more decorative than practical?

When Carter, who led a full set of new equipment, returned to the tent of the Seventh Squadron of the Heavy Weapons Company, all members of the squad surrounded him.

"Hey? Captain, are you getting promoted?"

Their eyes immediately focused on the officer's armor in Carter's hand.

"Forget it, I'll put the things down first and then tell you..."

It may be because Carter attracted most of the enemies during the battle. The casualties of the heavy weapon company in the battle were the smallest among all the Eagle Legion companies, with only a dozen casualties, and the seventh team that Carter was in was even more numerous. Most of the casualties were minor injuries.

After putting things away, Carter walked out of the tent with the appointment documents and various materials, and sat on a bench.

"Master Aris Legion just called me over to tell me about my new appointment.

Next, I will go to the town of 'Estari' to recruit and train the No.20 First Company, and I have officially become the company captain of the No.20 First Company. "

"Wow, that's a good thing"

"Then I'll call you the company captain from now on."

Everyone booed happily when they heard that, but Carter just waved his hand and continued to explain:

"It's impossible for me to go anywhere alone, so the army commander allowed me to take the seventh team as a team to build this new company. So I plan to ask your opinions. Everyone in the company can also get the position of squad leader."

Although Carter was holding a transfer order, in theory he had to go no matter whether the elves and men in front of him agreed or not, but Carter still planned to ask for their opinions and hoped that they would automatically join.You must know that a voluntary person and an involuntary person can exert their subjective initiative one by one. Carter didn't think that he would have to do their ideological work when the time came. If someone really didn't want to, he wouldn't force him, just let them stay. .

"Where is this 'Estari'? Does anyone know?"

"I remember hearing people say it was a small town by the sea."

"Here, a coastal town in the northwest of Nagares, a prosperous town with a population of about 3000 people"

Seeing that everyone was interested, Carter immediately spread out a suggested map of the Kingdom of Nagareth and pointed out the destination.

"Okay, I'll go!"

Just as everyone leaned over to look at the map, Astolfo agreed without much thought.This young man from the Inner Ring Kingdom came to the dangerous Outer Ring Kingdom in search of excitement and adventure.Since seeing Carter's extraordinary power, he has made up his mind to follow in Carter's footsteps. He has a hunch that following Carter will definitely encounter very interesting things.

"Don't you think about it carefully?"

"It's all right, when are we going to 'Estaria'? Hehe, I'm a little happy when I think that I'm going to be the team leader too."

Carter wanted him to think about it carefully, but he waved his hand indifferently.

Legolas, who slept with Carter not long ago, also nodded:

"I'll go as well"

With the two of them taking the lead, Lena, Lucana, Lilian, Khakass and Rumaka, who have known the elves from the "Extreme East Pier" and chose to join, only Benedick and Claudio The recruit thought for a while.

It may be that Carter's impression was too deep on them. After staring at each other for a long time, they finally chose to join the team going to 'Estaria'.

"Very good, if everyone is willing, I will draft the document and submit it to the head of the legion for approval"

"no problem"

"Ok"

"Then give me your military badge, and I'll record the military badge information."

Seeing this situation, Carter hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and planned to finish the matter in one go, but Hakas, who had never had a strong sense of presence, suddenly asked:

"What about Wedell in the hospital?"

It was only when he reminded Carter that he remembered Weddell, who was almost forgotten by him. He had broken several ribs in his chest because of the previous 'Tal-Drowdr' defensive battle, and he was still recuperating in the hospital near the temple.After thinking for a while, Carter said:

"His injury should not heal so quickly. I'll get your transfer order and promotion order done first, and then I'll go to the city to visit him and ask for his opinion. If he wants to come, let him recover from his injury and come again." Ai Starry' come join us, and if he doesn't want to, let him stay in the Heavy Weapons Company."

"By the way, because we are about to go to 'Estari' to take up the post, the Legion has granted us a two-day vacation. Let me give you the vacation documents first..."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………

After becoming the captain of the company, Carter had a lot of authority and a lot of things to deal with. In just a few minutes, he accumulated several documents for himself to write.

Carter, who had worked as an office worker in his previous life, of course knew that what the elves in front of him were looking forward to most was their vacation documents, and other things were false.

Therefore, the holiday paperwork was processed first and distributed to the members of the seventh team, so that they could leave the camp to enjoy the two-day vacation.Finally, other paperwork was processed.

But it wasn't until then that Carter realized that although he had inherited memory and muscle memory, he was still very inexperienced in handwriting Elvish, and his writing speed was very slow and he didn't speak well. about there.

"I need to practice writing more in the future, otherwise this 'reptile' will be laughed to death if other people see it..."

Carter, who was writing the promotion list, suddenly saw the signature of the former army chief.

"Huh? By the way, I have to find Aragorn first!"

Carter, who found that he had made a mistake in the order, had to put down his work first.

He stood up, patted his butt, and walked towards the tent where Aragorn was.

"What's the matter with the sense of sight of this office worker? It's handling paperwork and handing over... How do you feel that there are so many programs for elves? Is this still a feudal society?"

On the way to the Aragon camp, Carter complained silently.

But it seemed that Carter was not the only one who was busy. The camp was full of officers in uniform walking around with various documents.

People who recognized Carter took the initiative to greet him.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Carter!"

"Hello!"

Many officers of the same level or even higher ranks used honorific names when greeting Carter. It seems that Carter's performance a few days ago has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
