Chapter 160: Gustav, Satisfy You, Magic Swordsman's Philosophy

A few days ago, when Lille visited Moriarty in the Guard Squadron and took the opportunity to return to Bonda, where he had been on loan for two months, he had also made a point of talking about Gustav himself, and had to remind Moriarty to pay attention to it. (Read the novel to the leaves・Yo~Yo.YZuU.)

According to Lille, Gustav debuted in the Aquarite City Defense at about the same time as him.

However, unlike the good luck of the former, Gustav was not able to match a good boss from the beginning. finally worked hard for several years to accumulate merit and was promoted to the captain, but because of a trivial matter, he angered his boss.

was captured to the end and driven out of the original squadron into the sequence of auxiliaries. After that, Gustav, who had a tough personality, seemed to be iron-hearted, and then "did not seek improvement", but willingly mixed with ordinary soldiers. Even if Cruyff later appreciated him and wanted to be promoted, he was rejected by him with great shame. The general, who had a great measure, laughed at this, but from then on the other people always looked at Gustav with a hint of strangeness and surprise.

This time, I don't know what the reason, Gustav, who was so unknown in the past that he didn't seem to know whether he was alive or dead, signed up as soon as he heard that there was a chance for a magic swordsman trial. I didn't want to, so I went through several tests within the Guò City Defense Army and Hockenheim, and successfully joined the ranks of trainees. And after several years of hard magic study and many tests, he finally mastered the first-level spell magic arrow, which can be said to surprise others. However, as a price, Gustav's original warrior class level has also degraded from the peak of level four to level three, and I don't know what he thinks about this.

And it was General Cruyff who ordered Gustav to be the acting captain of the magic swordsman team.

This time, the strong soldier did not refuse, but accepted it honestly. But

Such an appointment is only temporary, and the final appointment decision still needs to be made by Moriarty, the captain of the guard squadron.

"Acting Captain Gustav, I'm glad that you and your comrades are joining the Azure Mage Guard Squadron. (Read the novel to the leaf Yo ~ Yo .YZuU.)" Moriarty looked up at the Demon Swordsman, who was a full head taller than herself, and smiled, "On behalf of the squadron, I welcome you all here. ,…

"Thank you, Your Excellency. It's also our pleasure. The giant man's answer was still on the road, but there was no smile on his face, but after only a breath, he said in a deep voice: "May I ask a question?" ”

"Yes." Moriarty nodded.

"May I ask Your Excellency, why has our team's registration date been delayed until today? As far as I know, the other magic swordsmen have joined the various brigades under General Cruyff two months ago. Gustafa looked closely into Shangguan's eyes, his gaze almost presumptuous, but strangely there was no malice or hostility, most of all resentment and doubt.

"Because I need to first consolidate the foundation of the guard squadron and build a solid strength structure, and then I can accept your powerful force. Otherwise, an unbalanced system will be a disaster for you and for me. Moriarty glanced at the other party and then slowly glanced at the other nine: "If you feel that you have been treated unjustly because of this, I would like to sincerely apologize to all of you. With that, Moriarty gave another military salute to the crowd.

"Thank you for your answer, Your Excellency." A flash of surprise flashed in his black eyes, obviously the giant man did not expect his new commander to be so generous and frank in public about his means of balancing power. In this way, Gustav could not speak, but nodded unconsciously.

"So, Acting Captain Gustav, can I ask you a question as well?" Then, Moriarty asked with a faint smile. …,

"Please, Your Excellency." The giant man's expression quickly returned to his previous coldness, as if he was preparing to deal with the possible difficulties and even humiliation, after all, his question just now was purely two hundred percent of the new squadron leader's face.

"For you, who once refused General Cruyff's appreciation, why did you take the initiative to join the Magic Swordsman Project this time... This? Moriarty looked at his "two hundred and five" novice with interest and asked. [. YZUU POINT]

Unexpectedly, the other party asked such a question, and the giant couldn't help but be stunned.

"Why is it inconvenient to answer?" Moriarty smiled again.

"No, it's not." Gustav took a deep breath and replied in a loud voice, "The reason why I want to become a magic swordsman is because I am tired of the "big cage" of the city defense army and want to start over in a different place. "Re-open the house, so why don't you choose to retire early?" "Because I don't know anything but fight and kill, and I'm not interested, but I don't have the heart to be a "stray dog, the same mercenary!" The giant man raised his head and said loudly as if declaring, not caring at all about the dozen or so "former stray dogs" in the middle queue on the other side.

"Hehe, then this time you were assigned to the guard squadron directly under the Blue Basket Mage Regiment, which can be regarded as out of the sequence of the city defense army, you should be satisfied?" Moriarty's gaze faintly swept over the somewhat restless recruit crossbowmen on the side, so the somewhat restless "newcomers" immediately returned to a straight standing posture.

"No, not yet." The eccentric Gustav shook his head defiantly again and then stared at Moriarty condescendingly: "If my new lord is as stupid as the gang of crumbs of the city defense army, this is just another "cage!" ”

Suddenly hearing the giant man's words, not only did the White and Guderian behind Moriarty change color, but even the other nine magic swordsmen standing behind Gustav were also taken aback.

If it were according to the discipline of the city defense army, any soldier who dared to speak to his commander like this would have been punished with a military stick or even thrown into prison a long time ago.

"So what do you think the ideal chief should look like?" Moriarty raised his hand, stopped the movement around him, and asked the other party lightly.

"Hehe, it's hard to say anything else, but at least it should be able to beat me!" Gustav laughed.

"This standard is very real, and it cannot be faked." Moriarty curled the corners of her lips slightly: "Then, in order for you to be completely satisfied, let's give it a try." "Good!" For the squadron leader's direct invitation to the giant, he was also unceremonious, and he responded in one bite.

"Morty ......"

White on the side wanted to speak and stopped. On such an occasion, as a follower and deputy squadron leader, any of his gaffes may affect Moriarty's prestige and image within the squadron, "White, you are the deputy squadron leader, it is just right to be the referee." Moriarty turned to look at his gloomy follower and said casually.

"Yes, Your Excellency." After meeting Moriarty's gaze, White nodded slowly, and then strode out and announced in public: "The battle drill between Squadron Leader Moriarty and Acting Captain Gustav will be held on the camp playground in five minutes: the final result of the drill will be determined by the actual victory or defeat: no one is allowed to interfere!" Do you understand? ”

"Yes, Deputy Squadron Leader White!" Hearing such an order, whether it was the existing soldiers of the squadron or the nine magic swordsmen on the opposite side, they all responded in unison.

Seemingly without any intention of changing equipment, Moriarty wore a dark blue tweed mid-level officer's uniform, while Gustav wore an ordinary cowhide armor, and stood together in the test field.

"Change a sword."

Moriarty glanced at the one-star sharp dagger in Gustafa's hand, then untied his red saber, handed it to Guderian on the side, and then took a dagger that was exactly the same as the other party. …,

"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, as far as I know, you are a third-level mage, but you are ready to fight with me?" Gustav looked at Moriarty, who was slowly drawing his sword, in astonishment, and said that this was the first time this giant man had shown a puzzled expression today.

"Give it a try."

Moriarty smiled casually. Obviously, the inside story of his actual third-level warrior professional level is not known to outsiders like Gustav. But as he was about to set foot on the battlefield in earnest, Moriarty's secret could not be hidden for long.

"Lord Moriarty is a mage, why didn't you take a short sword instead of a magic wand?" "Isn't it, the squadron leader is planning to fight that Gustav sword fight?"

"Oh my God, is your Excellency also a magic swordsman?" At the same time, the surrounding crowd of spectators erupted in a wave of discussion and surprise. However, under White's forced gaze, he quickly calmed down again. Everyone present was anxious to see how the sword-wielding Moriarty had managed to pacify Gustav, who was even more piercing than a thorn in the head. Of course, there are many people who also hope to take this rare opportunity to take a good estimate of the "quality" of His Excellency the Squadron Leader.

Then, at White's command, Moriarty and Gustav walked about thirty steps in different directions, and then stood facing each other.

"I announce, battle drills, begin!" Seeing that the two of them were ready, White finally nodded to Moriati, and then shouted loudly.

Before the referee's shout rose to the highest, Gustav had already scurried towards his opponent dozens of meters away. Although this magic swordsman is unusually tall and stout, the pace of his feet is never slow, and each step is extremely large, so he has a stronger straight line sprint power than some other agile warriors.

Obviously, in the face of the third-level mage Moriarty, Gustav had no intention of trying to fight the opponent with magic arrows, because that would be tantamount to self-inflicted humiliation.

The so-called magic swordsman is to use magic to beat warriors and slash mages with swords!

This is Gustav's core combat philosophy, and it is also the path he chose to be a magic swordsman. (To be continued.)
