Chapter 18: Return

After the operation, Carl led a group of soulless recruits to report down the mountain. Along the way, Carl's face tightened, and he didn't say a word to the rookies. It seemed that what she had to say had already been mocked on the mountain.

Gerald took the group of recruits from Karl, and after listening to Calder's report, he frowned fiercely.

"Soldiers." Gerard didn't yell again this time, but calmly said to them, "This incident was very sudden, I think, you have all seen the most real side of the battlefield. Fighting against Honkai is going to die, and it's going to die a miserable death. Just like the instructor who died just now. I am indeed striking at you, and you have the right to be thoroughly informed of the facts. I don't want you to lose your courage in the face of Honkai and kill everyone else. ”

Gerald took a deep breath, "Your instructors are all regular Church Knights, but eight of the eighteen soldiers were killed in the face of that mutated Honkai Dead Soldier. This is war. He pointed to the hill, in the direction of the cabin that no longer existed, "But do you know why the instructors had to destroy Honkai even if they sacrificed so much!" Gerald suddenly raised his voice.

The crowd was silent and did not answer.

"That's to give you an environment where you can be quiet and decadent!" He suddenly shouted at them: "What are we doing this for over the Alps, across the Mediterranean, through the Bialowieza Forest? Is it fun? Adventurous? Missionary? His hand pointed at them fiercely, "It's to protect our people!" By the way, I am protecting you!

"Our people have paid us loyalty, taxes, and labor, and we should give them shelter, even if you put that aside, do you know how Honkai kills?

"He will distort the human body and destroy the human will. He will kill you in any way you can think of and in any way you can't think of!

"You haven't seen a village invaded by Honkai. Dozens of families have all become dead soldiers, and even livestock have become Honkai beasts, roaming the mountains. There were also dozens of small children there. There were even a few little girls who said they wanted to be our knights. But the next time we saw her, we had to shoot a projectile into her body. ”

"If it weren't for the Honkai, we might have one more partner, but after the Honkai, we'll only have disaster left! Ordinary people can't touch Honkai, which means that once Honkai spreads to the world of ordinary people, that thing will turn all your family into monsters like the one you just had! ”

Everyone imagined if their family became like that...

They shuddered.

"We are warriors guarding against Honkai, and we will sacrifice ourselves for the sake of others. Because we sacrificed, there is a world of peace! If invaded by the Honkai, the Honkai will destroy your family, your castle, your territory, and even your country and destroy your entire world! But now none of this is happening, do you know why!

"Because we are taking responsibility for ordinary people! We are fighting for them, we are dying for them! Among us are your fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters, and friends! You all have great power in you, but you don't know how to dig and you are laughed at as a waste! ”

Everyone bowed their heads. Gerald tore open the wounds on their bodies and sprinkled a handful of salt on them. But Gerrard's words took a turn for the worse

"Genius exists! But I don't believe that waste also exists! None of you are waste, you just don't have a better education! Now, I'm giving you a chance! A chance to get rid of being ridiculed as rubbish! Give you a chance to hold your head high and tell them I'm a Valkyrie and I'm a knight! Leave your yelves to me, and I'll give you a chance to be reborn!

"During the five years of training here, you must absolutely obey my orders and absolutely complete the tasks I have given. As long as you persevere, after five years, you will all be B-level combat power. You, just now, are not waste, but warriors! A dignified warrior! ”

"Good!" I don't know who suddenly said better, and the students were infected one after another, and they applauded one after another. There was an uproar. Gerald raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Okay, now everyone listens! The descendants of the three clans of the Mandate of Heaven are out! ”

Half of them came out one after another, and Xiu was among them.

"Now, you're the first squad. The remainder are the second squad. Your instructors have already been assigned, and now the instructors, take your people back to the city! ”

The instructors began to command, to give orders. Soon all the people got on their horses and followed the instructor back to the city.

Amid the sound of horses' hooves, the crowd faded away.

Gerald watched the crowd go far enough before discussing it with the adjutant beside him.

"Temporarily transfer half of the guards? In that case, who will be responsible if something goes wrong here? Bishop? ”

"According to the messenger's report, the front-line combat strength is tight, Kaslana's knights have died two, and the people of the Shaniat family are about to be eaten by the Honkai energy to withstand this round of counterattack."

"What? Kaslana's knight has a loss? Gerald seemed incredulous.

"Yes, for this reason, Captain Francis personally went out and buried the two fallen knights with the corpses of the Honkaimon. The bishop confirmed that the direction of the culprit responsible for the Black Death had been found and confirmed, otherwise the Honkai would not have reacted so much. ”

Francis?

Gerald pondered for a moment.

"Really? Okay, I'll allow half of the guards to be transferred to the front. Gerald licked his lips, "God (collapse) Ming (bad), are you ready to face human revenge?" ”

At the same time, Modifier immediately pondered what Gerald had just said to them.

As long as you train well according to the method he said, you will definitely be able to reach B-level combat effectiveness. It's going to take five years... Five years... I'm seven years old now, and I'll be 12 years old in five years. What does my sister's combat power look like now? Xiu couldn't help but think of the figure as holy as light.

I have to work hard to catch up with my sister's footsteps and strive to reach my father's level, so that I can help my father on the battlefield in the future, so... Wouldn't my father be kind to himself?

Xiu couldn't help but smile lightly.

No one noticed how happy the little kid was smiling at the moment.

Returned to the training camp, the instructors did not have any more orders, and when they were done in the parade, they were disbanded.

When Shu returned to the dormitory, he found Otto sleeping with his thick book in his arms. Xiu didn't know how Otto had escaped the instructor's prey, but he had no intention of waking Otto from his sleep, so he changed his clothes and fell asleep.
