Section 422 Inherent X Weakness (6)

"Honor is never stupid." Karl shrugged his shoulders and said. "I am loyal to the Duke, loyal to the Lucilles. If he wants me to go somewhere, to fight some enemy, I will not disobey. But that doesn't mean I like this kind of fighting, or that I'm sure I'll be able to defeat those enemies. ”

"Hahahaha," LeVert laughed. What is the difference between this and outright surrender? ”

"It's a big difference." Carr said. "As aristocrats, we will understand that if we save our lives without losing honor, our enemies will respect us. Stupid and short-sighted petty citizens will surrender directly. ”

"Even if you're right." LeVert looked at him. "Have you ever wondered what if it wasn't Harwick himself, but some of his men, who came to attack us? What if these of his subordinates weren't going to take prisoners, but were going to use us to test their magic? ”

"Then fight." Carr said. "In order to think about it later, we have to show a certain ability. If it weren't for Halwick coming in person, all we would have to do was beat the opponent. Then, treat them like Harwick did to me before. ”

"Caught alive?" LeVert groaned. "It's not that easy."

"The team I led before was called the 'Demon Breaker Team', and not just because it was equipped with equipment that could resist and destroy magic." Carl said. "The truly powerful magic of Halwick may not be mastered by everyone."

"This... That's right. LeVert said. If everyone had mastered it, it would not have been possible for Harwick to succeed in a large number of experiments, while others would have done the same thing as him and often failed. ”

They were chatting like this. Suddenly, a red fireball flew in the distance, and it exploded with a 'boom' not far from the two.

Solidify and fade.

"Did you find out? There seemed to be fewer people in the camp. ”

On the side, the fire of the fence flickered on and off. In the distance, a group of people gathered around the command center, shouting something--- Yuan Sen couldn't hear it clearly. At that moment, Toby's voice rang out.

"Seems to be." Brockis, who was beside him, responded. "What's going on?"

"How do I know?" Toby looked around. "But they didn't get into chaos."

"Because their regimental commander is still calm." Draas looked into the center of the camp. "In the darkness and chaos, if the leader of the team does not waver and panic himself, and does not give wrong orders, the subordinates will gradually calm down."

"Sounds like you've had a similar experience?" After hearing him say this, Brockis looked at Dellas. "Before, when I was facing a herd of beasts, once..."

"Well, the most dangerous one." Derras said. "At that time, the front of the Morris family on the right flank was broken by wolves, and the troops of the Duran family on the left retreated without authorization.... As a result, we, holding our ground, were surrounded. ”

"It was a real loss." Toby said. "If it weren't for the timely support of the mage group, we might have been completely wiped out by the beasts."

"I remember that time the Duke didn't go on the expedition." Brockis said.

"yes." Derras said. "At that time he and the other dukes were ordered to go together to meet the king.... That time it was Captain Ellis who led the team. If it weren't for him that time, we might have fled like the soldiers of the Duran family. ”

"What did he do?" Toby asked.

"Shout out loud and call everyone to fight for honor." Derras said. "Then reorganize the formation, asking everyone to hold their ground, protect their comrades, and stand in the most dangerous place at the first time."

"As I recall, the captain died in the middle of the battle," Brockis said.

"yes." Dellas sighed. "The way a warrior died. Before he died in battle, he used the shield in front of him to block wave after wave of wolf attacks. Until the shield is torn, until the armor is covered with scars...."

"All of us are fighting with his inspiration. The corpses of the wolves were piled up in a hill next to our position. Later, a cunning wolf took advantage of the momentary negligence of his teammates beside Captain Ellis to pounce on him from the dead corner and bite him on the shoulder. ”

"But even so, the captain didn't hand it over. He was still encouraging everyone, desperately shouting and killing---- and kept fighting until he couldn't bear it anymore and fell completely..."

"I saw his shields and armor after the war." Brockis said. "If it weren't for this, many people would have been crying. If it weren't for the rest of the family, the Duke would have honored him in public and prepared a grand funeral for him. ”

"Later, it was also to reward your performance in this battle that you were separated from the official army and the monitoring team was formed..."

"I am eternally grateful for this reward." Dellas looked at Brockis. "However, I don't understand, what is there to scruple about? Fleeing in the face of the enemy on the battlefield is the most despicable and shameful way to do it, and what scruples are there to talk about? ”

"The Duke has his considerations." In the face of this questioning, Brockis said simply. "At that time, there were some powerful offensive and defensive means that could only be used by the major families combined."

"When we are fighting to the death on the front line, where are these powerful means?" Dras asked.

"Each family has to think about the big picture. Although the situation at that time was very urgent, after thinking about it for a while, they still believed that such means could not be used because of that kind of war situation. So, in the end it was not used. Brockis said. A few times after that, when a very powerful enemy appeared..."

"The mages have developed magic that is more powerful and easier to use." Toby said, laughing. "Hehehehe."

"Even so, the effort is not without effect." Brockis said. "Even if it becomes like this, it is a power that only nobles can use--- only our honor."

"I don't understand." Dras shook his head and said. "Isn't it just for the sake of using weapons? Aren't the armor on our bodies and the long swords in our hands used to attack the enemy? Do you mean we need to hide these against the herd? Wear it when the time is right? ”

"That weapon is different." Brockis sighed and said. "When you use it, you have to pay a lot of money."
