Chapter 177: New Ideas, Number, Giving Away

"Morti, first of all, congratulations on a resounding victory." On the night of the end of the blue irises, Lille was ordered by Cruyff to send the new banner that the Ordnance Institute had made with all its might to the camp of the Guard Squadron, where he was left to have a few drinks.

"Thank you." Clinking glasses with Lille and taking a sip of the drink, Moriarty's face was not much joy.

"What? Just won a big battle and won two big prizes, is there anything you are not satisfied with? You now have your own unique unit number, Olympus Squadron! Ha ha. Lille took the initiative to refill the wine glass for the other party, and asked with an envious smile: "To say, today you can count your majesty inside and outside Aquamarine City." And your 'three-stage' magic arrow strike array is also refreshing and amazing! ”

In the past, the use of mages on the battlefield was often scattered and disordered. Even in large-scale magic battles between mage groups, most of them are smashed against each other through guò attack spells, depending on which side has more people and a higher class level to determine the final victory. More than ten hours ago, the guard squadron's "creation of zào" coordinated and batched use of magic swordsmen like a military formation had indeed never appeared, and it also achieved very significant tactical results. Practice has proved that a simple combination of magic arrows in a group of three can completely cause effective damage and threat to a strong mid-level professional like a seventh-level warrior. And seeing such a situation, I wonder if Cruyff, who "sold" all the magic arrows and demon swordsmen to Moriarty with a cheeky old face, will completely repent of his stomach. Of course, how to match the spell holding time on the real battlefield, find suitable targets, and not leave obvious gaps. These are all problems that must be solved in the future use of the magic army. But at the very least, the Guard Squadron's stunning appearance today has opened a whole new door for all magic users. It's just that because of the first extremely hot and bloody actual combat exercise as a cushion, the internal drills of the city defense army in other sessions have suddenly become boring. Not even half of the scheduled progress, the two Grand Arcanists on the viewing platform had already left the stage early, and they were no longer interested in watching.

"Huh. Where there will be any dissatisfaction. Hearing the other party's words, Moriarty just smiled at Lille, but said, "It's just a 'victory' like this." In the future, I hope to have as little as possible. ”

"Indeed." Lille nodded in agreement: "Your squadron did not lose a single person but wiped out the entire Saruman army, although it is a fierce fight for prestige and morale, but it also has a lot of neutral people within the city defense army. You need to be careful in the future. ”

"I know."

Although Saruman's usual life is not liked. But today, being slapped in the face and "destroyed" by Moriarty like this, it is inevitable that a kind of hatred and unanimity will arise in the defense army of Azurite City. Come to think of it, if it weren't for Gustav's last-minute smile and revenge, and Moriarty and Mrs. Cold Spring's unanimous rescue, I am afraid that the guard squadron will inevitably become the "public enemy" of the city defense army in the future.

"But you don't have to worry too much, after all, your troops are directly under the command of the Azure Mage, and there is nothing wrong with the exercise. Therefore, when you really go to the battlefield and fight a few battles with the southerners, the city defense army should not remember this 'little feud' with you. ”

"I hope so." Moriarty smiled and asked, "What happened to Saruman?" ”

"It's not that good. With your and the lord's healing skills, and after the doctor's full treatment. It will take more than two months to recover. Lille shook his head and looked at the other man, "You're still weird, Morty. It is really incomprehensible to be able to shoot a fourth-level mage on the spot without blinking an eye, but to be able to gently let go of Saruman, the 'enemy'. ”…,

"There's nothing I don't understand." Moriarty glanced back at Lille. But he picked up his glass again and stopped talking, without giving a clear answer.

In fact, to be honest, the reason why Moriarty killed the fourth-level mage mercilessly was not only because of the needs of the battle situation at that time, but also because of the opponent's 'anti-Hockenheim' position. Perhaps, this seems a bit arbitrary and overbearing. But in one acre and three points of land in Blue Crystal City. A mage who has the courage and will to stand on the opposite side of Moriarty must be an outsider who has a grudge of one kind or another with the Academy of Magic. Otherwise, even a completely neutral mage would never have the courage or heart to risk offending Hockenheim completely and openly arguing with the guard squadron on the exercise ground. And for such a "wild mage", killing is killing, and Moriarty will not have any burden at all. Afterwards, Hockenheim would have applauded his decision-making on the spot, and it would be impossible for the City Lord's Mansion and the City Defense Army to stand out for such a non-native outsider.

As for Saruman and the mid-level mages under him, Moriarty would not move. Even if all the low-level soldiers of the Saruman Brigade were killed, as long as these backbones were preserved, Lady Cold Spring and Miguel would not turn their faces. After all, compared to the scarce mid-level professionals, low-level warriors and recruits are still well-resourced. And this is also the bottom line of actual combat exercises. In the same way, if the losing side today is the Guard Squadron, Moriarty also believes that no matter how crazy Saruman is, he will never dare to really hurt himself. Otherwise, Hockenheim would have retaliated in a frenzied manner.

"Hehe, that's it, I won't force you anymore." Seeing that Moriarty didn't open his mouth, Lille just smiled, didn't force him, and drank the wine in his cup directly, and got up to leave.

"Yes. You take this. Moriarty nodded, and at the same time took out the "cold green" from his sleeve and gently put it in Lille's hand: "Come down and go to the battlefield with real knives and guns." I'm not a good mage advisor, and it's hard for me to look after my brothers. With this magic ring for you, I can feel more at ease. ”

"This..."Looking at the rare Mind-Triggered Ring in his hand, Lille was a little stunned.

Perhaps for a mage like Moriarty, the mind-triggered ring of cold green is not very precious. However, once handed over to a pure warrior to wear, it is a very practical little prop. Lille had expected Moriarty to give the ring to his followers for self-defense, but he didn't expect that the other party would throw it to him without waiting to warm it up. It's as if it wasn't a rare magic ring, but an ordinary jelly bean.

"Hehe, put it on. I've got a 'petrified skin' pre-stocked in the ring. Now you have a few Demon Swordsmen under your command as well, so let them replenish them when they run out. Seeing that Lille was a little stunned, Moriarty smiled slightly and pushed him again. At this time, the mid-level warrior, who was already blushing a little, thanked him and put Leng Green on the middle finger of his left hand, while clenching his fist slightly.

Seeing off Lille, Moriarty once again gathered the officers of the squadron. Although it was late at night, when everyone gathered in the squadron leader's office, they all shouted excitedly when they looked at the new battle flag that had been hung - the "Olympus Military Flag" embroidered with the majestic snow-capped mountain silver peak.

"I hope you enjoy the squadron's new name and flag." After the cheers had calmed down a bit, Moriarty glanced around and smiled.

Truth be told, when he reappeared in front of Lady Cold Spring after winning the exercise, and was asked if he planned to use the new name of "Moriarty Squadron", the mage's first instinct was to decline. Then, under the watchful eyes of all parties, Moriarty decided on a whim the new name of the guard squadron as "Olympus". …,

"It's good, I love it." Looking at the brand-new battle flag with white medals on a blue background in front of him, Deputy Squadron Leader White first said categorically.

"I like it too, I don't have to say anything about the good wine in the Olympus Garden!" Guderian then shouted, but in the mind of the silverbearded dwarf, he thought of Olympus, and of the bottles of wine that were stored in the garden cellar.

"Olympus, with its very distinct personal identity, is also implicit in EarthStudio. Oh, I think I will be satisfied with the college. As the squadron's staff officer, Clausewitz's first consideration was the reaction of the Teal Mage Regiment and Hockenheim. After all, the change of the number of the guard squadron seems to outsiders to have a hint of wanting to stand on its own. Perhaps, this is why Moriarty refused to give his name the honor of his final name without thinking about it. And now, Olympus, a very neutral name with a faint connection to Hockenheim, can really satisfy everyone.

And hearing the words of the old werewolf, Gustav, who had won face today and showed no doubts, also nodded again and again. Although before firing the magic arrow, Moriarty had strictly ordered him not to actually kill Saruman. However, Gustav's words after the "empty cannon" were completely sincere.

"What do you think? Margaret? "Just when everyone has been enthusiastically supporting the new name and flag of the squadron, the most prominent female werewolf on weekdays is unexpectedly silent.

"Eh, that's good." Margaret pouted and replied simply.

"Oh, that's fine." Moriarty nodded, and did not delve into the reason why the other party's affection was not high.

"Morty, where's the magic ring? You don't need it anyway, so borrow me for two days. At this time, taking advantage of the fact that others did not care, Guderian carefully slipped to Moriarty's side and whispered hehe. It's a pity that with the big voice of the silverbearded dwarf, even if he speaks quietly, the rest of the office can hear it clearly.

"You're late, I'll give it away." Looking at Guderian's look of hope, Moriarty shrugged and said. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
