"Boom!"

"Oooo

There was a clash of weapons in the schoolyard of Ironwood Fort.

Richard was training against Viscount Thoth, and Viscount Thoth, who had an advantage in his fighting spirit cultivation level and combat skills, was suppressing Richard to the death.

The main members of the Hunter family, including Richard's second and third uncles, were watching the battle intently.

After all, a knight-level master training like this can also gain a lot if you can observe it.

"Bang!"

"Ahh

Viscount Sauter finally caught a flaw in Richard and kicked it on Richard's chest.

Richard cried out in pain, but did not stabilize his body for a moment.

In an instant, Viscount Sauter placed his sword on Richard's neck.

"Hey, you've lost again, fight with Lao Tzu, you're still a little tender."

"Shh

Although Viscount Sot won the battle, he was booed from the sidelines, and did not enjoy the treatment of the victor at all.

Viscount Sot felt bored for a moment, put away his sword, and wanted to turn away,

After thinking about it, he patted Richard on the shoulder with his hand.

"Boy, there has been progress, only a little worse than when Lao Tzu was back then."

"Shh

This time the boos around were even louder.

"Big brother, when you were your age with Richard, you weren't even a knight."

It was Richard's second uncle who demolished the stage, and only their brothers knew about the situation of Viscount Souter when he was young and dared to come out to dismantle the stage.

"What nonsense, you must be mistaken!"

Viscount Sauter yelled at his brother with a stiff neck, but anyone could tell that he was a little weak-hearted.

"Forget it, there's a new circus coming to Ironwood City today, I have to go and see it."

With that, Viscount Sauter left in a hurry,

As one of the protagonists leaves, the people around him also disperse to do their own things.

Soon Richard was left alone in the same place,

Rubbed the place where he had just been kicked by Viscount Thoth

"Hiss"

The pain in his chest made Richard bare his teeth for a while.

Although Viscount Sauter likes to blow a little calf, his strength is definitely not covered.

A general qi induction technique was practiced by him to the point of reaching the peak, and he had the strength of a peak knight.

With Viscount Thoth's talent, if he could have obtained a better Qi Induction Technique earlier, I am afraid that his current strength would be as good as a great knight.

Richard can now go through so many moves under Viscount Sauter, which can really be said to be a rapid progress.

Richard has been cultivating to the intermediate level for less than a month after obtaining the Qingzhi Qi Technique, and he has already left the class of rookie knights, and basically has the strength of senior knights.

It's on par with the Crusaders after the double bonus.

When everyone was gone, Richard clicked on the system in his consciousness,

It's a new week......

Name: Richard

Level: 5 (1560/8000)

Power: 14.1

Constitution: 13.6

Dexterity: 13.5

Spirit: 4.4

Skills: Beast's Breathing Method (Grandmaster) is the highest, Green Qi Induction Technique (Intermediate), Offensive Technique (Intermediate).

Specialty: Domination

Army: Centaur Leader (20), Spearmen (90), Archers (50), Royal Griffons (29), Crusaders (19).

After Richard's Blue Qi Technique was upgraded to the intermediate level, the four-dimensional attribute increased slightly.

Now just looking at his physical strength, Richard is no longer weaker than some peak knights, but he may still lack in fighting strength and combat skills.

At this time, the city that Richard could manage became two, a megalithic fort and a city in the woods.

The high-level buildings of Boulder Castle were still in an unbuildable gray state, and Richard didn't hesitate for long to upgrade the archer camp to a marksman camp.

The marksman can be said to be one of the pillars of the early Terrans, and before that, because there were Crusaders and griffins, air units had to be prioritized.

Now that the time was right, Richard immediately chose to upgrade it.

After that, Richard upgraded all his archers to marksmen, and recruited all the newly trained soldiers for a week.

Immediately afterwards, Richard clicked on the interface of the city in the woods,

If Boulder Fort still has options, then Forest City has no choice but to build the elf second-level military camp Sword Dancer Camp, and recruit all the troops trained in Forest City.

Now the military under Richard has grown a lot.

Army: Centaur Leader (40), Spearmen (110), Sword Dancer (15), Marksman (65), Royal Griffin (35), Crusader (23).

Richard was very satisfied with the first-class centaur leader after the elves were upgraded, and this group of people was armed with battle axes.

The snow-white warrior with snow-white hair is already worthy of the strength of a quasi-knight under the bonus of Richard's intermediate offensive technique, and the effect of charging is definitely better than that of cavalry, after all, the highest realm of cavalry riding seems to be the unity of man and horse.

These centaur leaders are directly born with a unity of men and horses, who can compare,

These centaur leaders can be said to be the kings of the first rank, and in some ways they are even stronger than many second-order soldiers.

However, the second-order sword dancers in the main city of the fortress (elves) made Richard feel a little weak, and these high-blooded warriors had almost no protection on their bodies.

At first glance, it looked like he was going to the battlefield to change his life, and Richard really didn't dare to let them do the thing of charging ahead, after all, there were too many casualties and it was distressing.

But these sword dancers are nimble and fast in the forest. Richard simply sprinkled them in the ironwood forest, temporarily acting as forest scouts.

"Newspaper"

While Richard was pondering the system, a soldier who reported the message pulled Richard back into reality.

"Lord Richard, report from the front."

The soldiers who sent the message conveyed the urgent information of Yusidu, and used the wind bird to transmit the message, which was difficult to raise, and the cost of use was extremely high.

If it's not a very urgent matter, Yusi will still choose the normal Pegasus report,

In the entire Northland, except for Drifting Snow City and a few wealthier territories, only Hunter's family used the means of transmitting messages from wind birds.

Now that the rain is directly used, the wind bird reports is enough to show the seriousness and urgency of the situation.

Richard took the small cylinder from the messenger's hand, which should have been removed from the wind bird just now.

The mouth of the cylinder had a good wax seal, and Richard cut the wax open, opened the small cylinder, and took out the note inside.

"The Jingbei army was defeated, and the ogres attacked in a big way."

The note begins with a concise and concise message of the most important information, and the next few lines briefly describe the situation on the battlefield, so that Richard can roughly understand what is happening.

The Jingbei army was defeated,

Truth be told, Richard didn't predict.

In Richard's mind, at most it was a no-lose-no-win situation, and no matter how much he couldn't lose.

But I didn't expect that the Jingbei Army was not only defeated this time, but also a fiasco, and it can be said that it lost and even let the ogre rip off his pants.

Richard read the note several times, then crumpled it into a ball and held it in his hand.

……

Regarding the fiasco of the Jingbei Army, Richard had mixed feelings

The setback of the mighty Snowy City was not a bad thing for the ambitious Richard.

However, the crushing defeat of the Jingbei Army means that the ogre will be temporarily uncontrollable, and thousands of human beings will be destroyed by the ogre and take their lives.

As a human being, Richard didn't want to see that.

Unfortunately, as a human being, no matter how rational you are, you will always be affected by emotion in some decisions.

"Whew" Richard first let out a sigh of relief, as if he had made some decision, and then said:

"Order, officers at or above the capital level come to Tiemu Fort to discuss matters."

"Yes, sir."
