After returning from the Temple of Fate, Roland finally let go of one thing: at least so far, Mr. Rudolph Koras did not realize that his son had been dropped. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the evening, Roland invited Ivan and other friends of the Black Guard Battalion to dinner, and contacted colleagues by the way. Somehow, the news leaked, and several priest sisters and ranger girls came uninvited, adding a lot of color to the dinner.

Most of the women in this world are conservatives, a bit like the feudal society on the earth. The exception is for the female transcendental professions: firstly, the extraordinary power gives them the capital to show their individuality, and secondly, the Sindra faith is not forbidden, and the Far East is a place where the folk customs are rough, and the girls do not have to pay attention to feudal etiquette, and there are many enthusiastic and arrogant people.

At the dinner, Roland saw several girls drinking with men without fear, and at last they were drunk, and were encouraged by bad guys, such as Ivan, to perform striptease in public.

The barracks did not prohibit men and women from socializing, but it was always difficult to make too much noise in public, so he quickly got up and called a stop, and arranged for loyal and reliable young men to escort the drunken beauties home one by one, and he also returned to the dormitory.

Life returned to peace for a few days, but the strings that tightened in his heart did not relax in the slightest: every day he got up to run before the marching horn sounded, and exercised according to the scientific fitness methods popular on the planet.

In the past, on Earth, he couldn't believe that an otaku could smell the chicken and dance and insist on exercising. His situation and mentality have taken a 180-degree turn since the crossing, and according to Marlows's hierarchy of needs, most Far Easterners, including him, are still at the bottom of the needs pyramid and are not yet able to ensure their safety needs.

As a son of heresy, he is destined to not be able to leave this treacherous and wild land, if he doesn't want to die under the orc axe one day, where is there any other choice than to desperately cultivate and improve his strength?

On the other hand, it is also due to the environment. In this pitiful era of no appliances, no internet, and few publications, entertainment was lackluster, and he couldn't think of anything more meaningful than fitness exercises.

To his surprise, this fresh way of exercising attracted many curious eyes, and soon people joined his morning running team and followed him to do morning exercises, which the female soldiers were especially keen on. Roland had to suspect that they were treating the eighth set of radio gymnastics as a funky dance. Of course, he also had to admit that the scene of a group of graceful female rangers wearing tight leather armor doing morning exercises collectively is indeed very eye-catching.

After breakfast, the barracks gathered for training as usual. At present, there are three main branches of the Kolath Army, the Black Guard, the Chaplain and the Ranger, and the focus of training is different.

Roland's comprehensive quality is outstanding among his peers, and the instructor gave him a score of "3+", that is, his professional level is only level 1, but he also has a more than 50% chance of winning if he challenges a level 3 black guard.

Roland was not satisfied. The test score is high, it is because he has a good foundation, and he does not feel that he can still excel if he has the ulterior advantage of taking away his soul, and he has to work harder than others to ensure the lead.

During this time, in addition to morning exercises and normal military training, he had to go to the classrooms of Colonels Pavel and Alexei after dinner for two hours of tutoring.

Especially the subject of horsemanship, which was originally his shortcoming, Colonel Pavel witnessed him go from a clumsy rider to a skilled cavalryman in just five days, and couldn't help but sigh to the other new blackguards in the classroom: Genius is not terrible, what is terrible is that genius works harder than you ordinary people!

Stimulated by Roland, Ivan and others also increased their training intensity as if they were competing, and the young people competed openly and secretly, no one admitted defeat, and did not want to be left behind by their peers.

The instructors noticed that Roland had brought a positive new atmosphere to the barracks, and they were full of praise for him, and they often chanted "get out of the door" in front of Rudolph.

Rudolph was also very pleased with his son's performance, and he never praised Roland easily in public, but only lightly warned people: "It is good for young people to be energetic and driven, and I hope they can maintain this passion for a long time, not three minutes of heat." ”

On the fifth day of traveling to the world of Vares, Roland received a notice from the company commander to report to the headquarters, and in an office, he saw his busy father again.

Rudolph was writing a letter at his desk.

Roland stood still at his desk, saluted, and swept his gaze across the letterhead, feeling uncomfortable when he saw the words "To my esteemed father-in-law, Lord Marquis of Zion" written in floral letters on the table.

The Marquis of Zion is an apparent reference to Joshua Zion II, lord of the present-day Marquis of Canaan. As the commander of the militia of the Far Eastern Province of the Holy Assanian Empire, Roland did not know if this was considered a "thief as a father" for such a humble gesture to the lord of the neighboring country.

He took a deep breath to dispel childish thoughts.

The reality is always so cruel, and sometimes you have to sacrifice your dignity for the sake of your ideals. The militia organizations in the Far East are growing stronger and stronger, and it is a large amount of expenditure every day, and the governor's yamen does not pay a single military salary, and it is impossible to sustain itself without finding a big financier to fund it.

The Marquis of Zion's funding of Rudolph's army was apparently not at ease, and the current cooperation between the two sides was to take what they needed. Roland did not think that this kind of collusion of interests could last long, after all, the Marquis of Zion wanted the entire Far Eastern Province, and Rudolph was equally ambitious, and he would not be willing to end up with a dead rabbit and a dog.

While he was thinking wildly, Rudolph put down his pen, sealed the envelope, and handed it to the servant beside him. Rubbing his eyes, he sat back in his armchair with a bag of cigarettes, slightly tired.

Roland stepped forward, picked up a delicate metal-cased lighter on his desk, pressed the mechanism lightly, and the gears rubbed against the stones, bursting a cloud of sparks, igniting the fuel-soaked wick and lighting the heather pipe for his father.

Rudolph took a puff of his cigarette, nodded and smiled at him, pointed to the kerosene lighter and complained: "This is a fashionable thing brought by a friend from the imperial capital, just such a small thing, it can be sold for two gold coins on the market, it is simply a money grab!" ”

Roland couldn't help laughing, thinking that when he was on Earth in the past, he read online novels, and after the protagonist traveled to another world, he sold the lighter he carried with him in exchange for the first pot of gold, which didn't seem to be all nonsense.

Rudolph smoked a cigarette and casually asked Roland about his experiences in the barracks these days, and finally suddenly changed the conversation and asked him, "You haven't been to the 'Friendly House' recently?" ”

Roland shook his head: "I've been practicing in the barracks, and I can't even spare time to go back to the city, so how can I have time to wander." ”

Rudolph glared at him: "! You're busier than I am! Take the time to go back to the city and take a look, Yevgenia has been talking to you several times, Lyudmila's girl doesn't say it, she also misses you in her heart, if you snub her like this again, don't come to me to sue me if you are hit by that crazy girl in the future. ”

Roland wanted to laugh but couldn't, his expression was weird, and there was a slight strange taste in his heart.

Widow Evgenia is the founder of the Ranger Battalion of the Kolas Army, but she has rarely taught apprentices in recent years, and has mainly shifted her focus to the financial management of the Corps, which can be regarded as Rudolph's good helper.

Lyudmila, the daughter of Evgenia whose father died 15 years ago, now runs a hostel in the city for her mother called the "Friendly House", which is also the intelligence headquarters and external liaison station of the Kolas Corps.

Before he took the house, Roland Köras and Lyudmila's childhood sweethearts were the closest opposite-sex partners, and because of this relationship, he was especially afraid to meet the intelligent female ranger, lest she see the flaws.

Rudolph finished smoking a bag of cigarettes, knocked on his pipe, got up and put on his coat, "Tonight at the 'Friendly House' regular meeting, you accompany me to meet a few old brothers, you are not young, there are some things to learn to participate in, appropriate opinions, I don't blame you for making mistakes." ”

Roland nodded, knowing that his father was planning to gradually transfer power to him and cultivate the rhythm of a successor.
