At that time, the mercenary group, which was originally only about a hundred people, instantly expanded to a scale of 1,000 people, which was already a considerable force in that chaotic and chaotic world where there were endless divisions and wars.

Of course, since this group had neither the endorsement of the Great Templar, nor the edict of the Emperor of Auckland (there was no legitimate Auckland Emperor back then), nor did there be any oracles, revelations, angels, etc., so the Brotherhood of Tebra was still only a mercenary group and could not call itself a "Knights". However, in the three years since its establishment, it has done more knightly things than most knights.

Of course, they also take on mercenary missions, but only those that crusade against robbers, crusade against fierce demon beasts, crusade against the wandering tribe of goblin kobolds, collect precious materials, escort goods or escort dignitaries, etc., in short, these are especially glorious tasks that only brush reputation and justice points. However, the Brotherhood never took part in special tasks for money, such as the suppression of the populace, the assassination of political opponents, and wars between lords. In addition, if they encounter people in distress, whether they are refugees, villages, defeated soldiers and nobles, they will do their best to help. Therefore, it is not uncommon to help citizens build roads and bridges, open up wasteland and farm for poor farmers, and go to the mountains for the seriously ill to find precious medicinal herbs.

All in all, rather than being a mercenary group, they're becoming more and more like a group of volunteers who can fight. And because the head of the regiment is a bad person, he often decides to give a big reward or something with a pat on his head, if it weren't for his deputy head of the group, the magic consultant and the supernumerary team member and girlfriend are all quite good, even if they are not financial saints, but they are still average. This will not let this Paan hero who is gradually known to everyone, no, the Western fantasy background is still called Pahn Knight, and after a good person does a good job, he will not only have a pair of underwear left and then sleep naked on the street.

What kind of person the head of the group is, what kind of style the group will be. If they really hope to rise to prominence in troubled times with a little military feats, then the Tiebra Brotherhood of Paan is not destined to be a place for the ambitious war dogs. However, this kind of "volunteer group", which is incompatible with the troubled times, after naturally weeding out all kinds of speculators and careerists, can burst out with shining power with a common goal, a common ideal, and even a common daydream -- however, the unified goal is only one aspect of cohesion and combat effectiveness. The most important thing is any organizational group, especially a large organization with a growing number of people, a sound organizational structure, and a clear discipline that can be executed and recognized.

In that year, the Brotherhood of Tibra was given a station called the Valan Fortress, and the small castle became a must-visit place for knights on pilgrimage in the future. In this small fortress, Knous Van Dimachia, known to the members as the "Ghost Vice-Chief", began to formulate the terms and conditions of the so-called "Brotherhood Law".

Knous was the second son of the Marquis di Marcia, and the governess was a priest of Lofe, the goddess of judgment and justice, and the writing of the law was a fairly simple task for him. At the time, Parn was actually quite supportive. Even if he is naturally stupid, he understands that when the number of people is small, they can discuss with each other, but when there are many people, there must be iron-like discipline and a clear system of rewards and punishments.

Needless to say, the standard rules of action are not allowed to kill innocents indiscriminately, rape and plunder are not allowed, and Pahn, who originally wanted to establish a team of "volunteers", will certainly not object, but what really triggered the conflict between him and Knous was the last rule.

"Don't leave the organization! One day as a member, a lifetime as a member! ”

Knous believed that the Tiebra Brotherhood should not be just an organization for doing good deeds, and that chivalrous efforts to help people in need could only help people for a while, but they could not help a lifetime, let alone completely end this era of turmoil. To become the light of dawn that tears through the darkness and chaos, the Brotherhood must have the iron discipline to enforce the ban. Such a group, on the day you join, must read the laws of the Brotherhood and swear allegiance to the organization. Since everyone has accepted it, it means that you have also accepted all the strict team rules. How can you be allowed to come as you say and go as you say? Otherwise, wouldn't it be a family wine to get together based on the so-called ambition alone? Speaking of this, Firatir pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Your teacher's Inspiration Legion is such a so-called family wine organization. So after a few blows, it basically couldn't sustain itself. Now that I think about it, I really understand what Knous did in the first place. You also set up a guerrilla association, right? Don't make the mistakes of your predecessors. ”

"The Guerrilla Association is a civil vigilante organization, although it is also a disciplined force, but its nature is closer to a volunteer association or something, but it does not have the grand ambition to end the troubled times and bring the dawn. It's not enough to ask for an oath of allegiance or anything. Of course, there are disciplinary requirements, but there are no particularly strict provisions. If you want to quit, you just need to apply in advance to explain the reason, and according to the year of service, there is also a pension, and if you want to get a second job, there are also positions waiting for the future Chamber of Commerce and the Kraken Chamber of Commerce. We have always been a professional business operation of humanitarianism. Storm shrugged his shoulders, and then added, "You are all greenhouse flowers living in a glorious era of peace and prosperity, and you are different from people in troubled times. ”

"Huh...... This organizational structure was established by Lu Xi's kid. If he had been born more than a thousand years earlier, perhaps he would have found a better way. At the time, however, a heated argument did break out between Parn and Knoeus over the last one. According to Parn, a fraternity is an organization that shares the same spirit and is willing to work for a common goal. However, dreams cannot be forced. Most people give up because of reality, but it is also human nature, everyone can get together and disperse. Even the gods are shaken and afraid; We, mortals, are even less sure that tomorrow will be as firm as we are today. And why force others? ”

"He's a naïve man!" Swift Wind sighed, as if he wanted to laugh, but with undisguised respect.

"Who's to say it isn't? But this kind of naïve guy, everyone likes it, doesn't it? Firatil shrugged his shoulders: "Besides, he is only always the same child's heart, and not a pedantic fool who does not know whether to live or die." ”

A pedantic fool who doesn't know whether to live or die, there is a proper noun called "virgin bitch". If Pahn is the kind of "I can't figure out the orders from above, so I will never listen to them", "Why are there such strict rules, this is a violation of freedom and human rights", "enemies are also people, enemies also have joys and sorrows, and there are parents, wives and children, I can't do it", "I can't kill people, I kill people, and I am no different from other people", then he is probably this type. This type of guy will definitely become the protagonist of all kinds of shonen manga in Area 11 if he still can't die on the battlefield.

Of course, in a normal story, Parn, as the protagonist, is actually a decisive master, and he never can't say anything about the damn and should be killed. And he is known as face blind, and he has never been soft on those enemies who have beautiful faces. He also knows very well that a team with combat effectiveness must have iron discipline and clear rewards and punishments, and he also supports the passage of the "Brotherhood Law".

…… This is the last one.

Firatir continued: "Knous's idea, though harsh, cannot be said to be unreasonable. Idealized teams need strict and even cruel rules, otherwise their ideals will become empty buildings. But Pahn believes that no matter how great an ideal a person may have, he is not qualified to impose it on others; People can have ideals, but they also have the qualifications to give up because of reality. Coercing people to continue to follow them with severe punishment and harsh laws is a cult, not a brotherhood. ”

"And in the end?" Blastwind asked with interest. She certainly didn't ask where the "Brotherhood Law" was headed, as the orthodox history books make clear, and the last rule was eventually changed to "No unauthorized separation from the team." To put it bluntly, resignation and retirement are fine, but they must be agreed by the top management of the Brotherhood, which should be the result of a compromise between Parn and Knous. It's just that in all the orthodox history books, there is no record of their conflict at all.

"In the end, the two of them quarreled for the first time, the first time they started greeting each other, and finally picked up a knife, but I stopped it. So they clenched their fists and went to the martial arts arena to sweat for a whole hour, and by the way, they removed more than five ribs from each other. So they all lay down and couldn't move, and they scolded each other and greeted each other a few more times, and finally decided to take a step back...... Oh, man! ”

"Well, that's how men are!" Blast said he really couldn't agree more.

"In other words, did Parn and Knous have a discord at that time?"

Firatir glanced at Hurricane, then smiled with a hint of sarcasm: "Yes, under normal circumstances, this is the way things will go in the future. That's probably what everyone thinks. But you shouldn't be like that, right? ”

Hurricane nodded: "There will be no conflict at all, only wine and meat friends may be, even if two people fall in love, they will often quarrel, let alone two people who are working hard for a common goal?" If they are really the great husbands with big hearts and magnificence that history and legends praise, they should understand this truth. ”

Of course they understand that. In fact, as the organization gradually expanded, became more famous, and the status grew, and the two of them became more and more conflicted. However, no matter how fierce the contradictions, or even the root contradictions, can be solved by beating each other together. If it can't be solved, there will be two meals. However, no matter how many bones they dismantled each other, on the battlefield, in the face of enemies that the sword seemed to be able to deal with, or against enemies who disguised themselves as friends under the battlefield, they calmly left their backs to each other, and that was unreserved trust. We can all understand how it feels. ”

"Of course, and I'm very proud that I have a lot of people in this area." Hurricane laughed.

"I know that there are many wild histories and rumors that Parn and Knoeus have long ceased to have a friendship, and that they are just political collaborators who maintain a harmonious appearance. This is not surprising, if there is not even a little gossip and rumors, the great man must not be a real great man. Those of us comrades-in-arms who have witnessed the entire Qiming War can fully prove that those two are real friends of life and death! They are like-minded friends and comrades-in-arms! When Pahn was mortally wounded, and Knous endured hardships comparable to those of the heroes of the ancient mythological era, and finally obtained the Heart of the Holy Fountain for him, I thought that there would be a proverb like 'the friendship between Parn and Knous' in the future. ”

"However, there is no such proverb." Swift Wind said faintly: "Does this mean that this great friendship does not have a good ending in the end, does it?" ”

"There is no doubt that the Knight of Dawn Palne died at the hands of the Apostles, at the bewitchment of Belat Mea." Firatir said expressionlessly, "We were all present when Parn was dying. It was he who personally demanded that the Heart of Dawn be given to Knous, and at the same time the Brotherhood of Tebra ...... Well, it was already the Knights of the Dawn at that time, and the position of Grand Master was also given to Knous. We all agree on that. And Knous did avenge him. History now proves that he did indeed fulfill Pahn's ideals and gave the world prosperity and peace again! He is the most perfect comrade-in-arms and successor, and there is nothing wrong with him! ”

"You're dodging my question." Hurricane hit the nail on the head and said: "I'm not a reference maniac looking for chapters and sentences, I have to dig out the history of the year, and it has no meaning for the glorious era established by Knous the Great." If it were on a normal day, I would have turned around and walked away now...... However, these truths hidden in various records and legends have been related to the present! My man has been missing for almost half a day, and it is because of these sequelae that have been left for more than a thousand years! ”

“…… I can't guarantee that what I see is true, but even if it is, do you want to know? ”

"It's better than not knowing anything."

"Well, my feelings, the one who started to change was the man named Theodoro Van Grus, from the moment he joined the Knights of the Dawn......"

"Theodoro? The founding hero of the Shengquan Dynasty, the 'purple-clothed prime minister'? ”

Known as the brains of Emperor Knoeus, he served as prime minister for ten years until his death. However, don't you think it's strange that such a person who can be called the head of the founding heroes only has a baronial title that cannot be hereditary? ”
