After some discussion, everyone was very happy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info This surprised Locke a little, and I don't know what they were happy about.

Now that the location of the new city has been chosen, the specific work needs to be discussed between Berg and Shiloh. For this matter, Locke only needs to wait for the design drawings to come out and be responsible for approval, and then sign when he asks for money.

You can't do everything yourself, right?

The civil affairs were basically over, and as soon as Berg and the others in charge of Eva's civil administration came out of the conference room, Locke immediately moved on to the next topic.

"At the time of the Light's Wish, the leaders agreed to re-establish the Preparatory Order. The mission of this Reserve Knights is to be responsible for training the new generation of paladins, and the location of the Reserve Knights is in our Ivah," Locke carefully watched the reactions of the people below, and then said softly, "The leader of this Reserve Knights is me. ”

Isn't this the hand of silver?

Everyone who was doing it was instantly excited, and Hudson and Paul and others, as well as the priests, looked at Locke eagerly.

Locke knew why.

In order to be able to become a paladin for his children and grandchildren!

As long as you become a paladin, then there is a lot of hope for the future of the family. Paladins have many more promotion channels than other ordinary officers. And when you become a paladin, you have the treatment of a knight. You know, the leaders of the Crusaders are all paladins who used to be the Silver Hand! Including the great lord in front of them is not surprised, he is also a paladin with a silver hand.

For those of you here, this is the best chance to change their family's status!

Locke may be about to let them down, though. He's going to get a batch of civilian paladins, and this group of paladins is going to be selected from the soldiers in the army!

However, this needs to be solved with the help of the pastors present, and the seeds of the Light cannot be planted without the help of these people.

Now it's up to Locke to figure out how to convince them. Let ordinary soldiers also receive the gift of the Holy Light and become a paladin.

"As the head of the Reserve Knights, I can give you a guarantee. If you have children who are physically able to withstand all the courses of the Preparatory Order, I can make them paladins. ”

Boom, everyone below started talking excitedly!

This is quite remarkable, in the past, only the descendants of nobles could become paladins. At the very least, it has to be a baron, or the Paladin's father is also a Paladin. You don't have a knighthood, which was not possible before.

"I don't care if you're recommending your own children or other members of your family. But! Locke put away the smile on his face and looked at them solemnly, "If they are of bad character, disrespectful to the Light, and do not have the heart to fight for Lordaeron all their lives, this kind of person will not come." Because it would ruin the reputation of our paladins, and besides, I've set the barrier to entry for paladins very low. ”

"Don't worry! Great Lord, we will definitely send our children who meet the requirements! An officer shouted happily.

"Plus! Listen up! ”

When the noise below gradually died down, Locke slowly spoke his thoughts.

"All the legions in our Southern Theater of Operations, as long as they are brave in battle, have a very strong spirit of glory, and have a patriotic heart, non-commissioned officers, soldiers, and officers can sign up to join the Reserve Knights!"

Wow!!

Now everyone is not excited, this is really shocked! By doing so, Locke is really challenging the current, aristocratic unspoken rules!

In the past, the children and descendants here were allowed to join the Knights, and this still makes sense. And let those commoners join the Knights, not to mention anything else, the nobles who know about this matter will not agree. Even the paladins wouldn't necessarily agree to this!

Why are paladins famous, so deeply trusted, loved, embraced, and envied by other civilians. Why? Isn't it scarce in number, and in noble status? But if Locke did this, what difference would the paladins have from those ordinary soldiers?

But what they didn't know was that Locke really thought so.

Locke is a pragmatist, and as far as Locke's idea goes, in the current form of Lordaeron, if the Crusaders have tens of thousands of paladins, they may be able to push all the way to the Northrend continent!

Instead of elevating the paladin's compulsion, it is better to do something practical and drive the undead out of the land of Lordaeron first.

Moreover, as far as Locke knew, the training intensity of the Silver Hand Reserve Knights was much higher than that of ordinary armies. Paladins not only need to train, but also learn the theoretical knowledge of leading soldiers, the way of light, personal martial arts, and so on. If you want to join the Knights, if you can't graduate from the Preparatory Knights, then needless to say, go to the ordinary army as a non-commissioned officer.

While the others were still shocked, Locke continued, "The age of a soldier cannot exceed 25 years old, and the age of an officer can be relaxed a little, 30 years old!" As long as you are able to complete all the courses of the Preparatory Knights, and successfully graduate. Then, the day you graduate is the day you become a paladin! ”

"Oh! By the way, and," Locke said, patting his head, "for those soldiers who can perceive the Holy Light on their own and are proficient in using it, they only need to study for a while in the Reserve Knights to obtain the status of a Paladin." ”

It took a while for everyone here to come back to their senses. Everyone wants to say something, but they dare not say it.

Gritting his teeth, Shiloh stood up and voiced his concerns.

"Great Lord, isn't there something wrong with you doing this... This is tantamount to you, standing against all the nobles... The other paladins may not agree with you. ”

"No, no, no! I don't need them to admit it! Locke smiled and said, "Now that I'm the head of the Reserve Knights, no one tells me what I need to do, and I don't need to listen to what anyone else has to say. Because, I'm the leader! ”

"Secondly, even if some people want to say something, that's okay." Locke smiled and said, "All the children of the nobles can come to Iva to join the Reserve Knights. As a descendant of a nobleman, if he can't even compare to a commoner, and can't prepare for a knightly unity, then what else is there to say as a nobleman? ”

"But..."

Shiloh looked at Locke with a frown, she knew that Locke was quibbling, although what Locke said made a lot of sense.

"The newly established Reserve Knights will be organized by Deputy Commander Hudson, Senior Prosecutor Shiloh, and Colonel Bridget. The commanders of the various legions must convey my request to your soldiers and officers. As for the Knights' station," Locke pointed his stick to a garrison road southwest of Iva on the hillside, "right here, clean up this place." ”

"Captain Bridget is responsible for the specific building renovations. Inspector Shiloh was in charge of the preparation of logistical necessities. Deputy Commander Hudson is responsible for the registration and placement of personnel. ”

Locke looked at the person he had named, "Guys, don't let me down. ”
