The towering walls of the Lookout Fort resemble a sinuous beast lying on the ground in the night. The strongholds, made of tall and sturdy granite, are covered with the devastated marks of war and time.

The black storm was silently hustle and bustle ahead, and large clusters of thick black shadows swept over the edge of the fortress from time to time, blocked by the light of a bright white that was not dazzling, but extremely tenacious. The light came from the Divine Pattern Barrier Device inside the fortress, which was a technology mastered by the Order Sect, and the humans and nations living on this continent have used it for thousands of years to resist the invasion of the Chaos Tides.

Without this kind of device and technology, the casualties of the human kingdom in the chaotic confrontation will probably increase at an extinction rate! Because it is rare for humans, or other creatures, to be able to move and live in the fog of chaos for long periods of time without the protection of order. Entering the Chaos Mist Area without any protection, the only fate can only be a mental breakdown in all kinds of whispers, and the body is also polluted by the power of Chaos, becoming a minion under the influence of Chaos.

Therefore, the Order Sect that has mastered this technology has an incredible status and prestige on this continent, and can even determine whether the throne of any human kingdom on the continent is legal or not.

Gao Chen flipped through the various classics sent by Prince Solan in his hand with great interest. Among them, there are knowledge classics of the power system of this world, as well as anecdotes, or ancient documents that record the history of some continents, which are roughly based on these two categories, and it is obvious that the old king did not mean to fool Gao Chen's side in this.

The collection accumulated by a royal family for hundreds of years, even if it is not as thick as the inheritance of the Order Sect, in the case of the same civilization, it is enough for Gao Chen to analyze a lot of things from it and have a more intuitive understanding of this world. Information and intelligence are important to anyone, no matter what, no matter where they are.

So even if it's just the biographies written by some bards in this world, Gao Chen can read them with relish, extract all kinds of information from them, and then infer more things based on this information and the historical analysis of this world.

……

"Want to return to the Chaos Battlefield?"

Taling's sudden question made the steady and calm Sudin a little dazed at the moment, and Ghosn on the side looked at him excitedly, Solan and the mage Lunn, as well as the deputy bishop of Kadera, stood beside him with a smile on their faces, their eyes quietly meeting each other.

"Speak quickly!" Ghosn gave Sudin, who didn't know what he was thinking. In terms of understanding this friend who grew up together, no one can surpass Ghosn, who knows too well that Sudin is unwilling to leave the army because of his injuries. Some people run away because they hate strife and war, and being discharged from the army is a relief, but there are people who yearn for war and war, as is the case with Sudin. Otherwise, with his exploits, it would be enough for him to enjoy his life after being discharged from the army like some flesh-worm nobles.

"Really?"

Su Ding, who was pushed, immediately woke up from his trance, he almost couldn't wait to look at Ta Ling, and his stereotypical face was a little nervous.

"Of course you can, your mental strength is very good, if there is a suitable puppet, your lost combat power will be compensated. Your experience in warfare with Chaos monsters is also a rare asset. Solan and I talked about you. In fact, not only you, but also some veterans who have to be discharged from the army and leave the front-line battlefield for various reasons, if needed, as long as their mental power has not been irreparably damaged, they can also be transformed into powerful combat power immediately. Of course, even those whose mental strength is not up to standard can also become combat power, but they can only choose the lowest-level puppet manipulation. Taling replied.

"Then let me go back to the battlefield." Sudin nodded. Ghosn and the others, who heard his answer, laughed together.

"I'll have an Odin-type puppet for you."

"Your Majesty has issued an order in the royal capital, as long as you can resist the tide of chaos, as long as you can put forward all kinds of support you need, the Angelo Kingdom will do its best to satisfy you." The court mage Lunn Byler stepped forward and revealed the old king's will, which was tantamount to acknowledging that Taling could wield great power in the country's territory for some time to come.

The people on the field were not surprised. The old king was not a mediocre ruler, and although the kingdom of Angela did not expand during his reign, and even lost territory under the last raid of the Chaos Tides, he was still a wise and decisive king.

He can always decide his own technique and governing style according to the change of situation and grasp the key points. Just like the current threat of the Chaos Tide, the old king knows very well that under the premise of resisting the Chaos Tide, all problems, even if they seem to be big, are trivial without affecting the fight against the Chaos Tide! Only by resisting this chaotic tide can he free up his hands to solve any problems in the future, if he can't resist this chaotic tide, then all the current problems will not be a problem after the destruction of the country.

Therefore, when Prince Solan returned to the royal capital with Taling's technology and information to meet him, and the court mages verified that Taling's skills and knowledge were not deception, the old king immediately made up his mind and gave orders one after another. Of course, out of prudence, the old king simply summoned a group of newly trained recruits to the northern barrier for verification.

In the old king's heart, because of the terrible situation of the slight lack of combat strength, he had already prepared the worst plan to abandon the barrier of the first line and shrink all the armies. Therefore, the barrier of the first line is in the heart of the old king, and it is gratifying to hold it when the loss is not large, but if it is impossible to do anything, then retreat. Even if the sequelae of doing so are enormous.

The people of the kingdom's borders have long since been relocated inward, and subsequent barriers are being strengthened and built. The arrival of Taling only gave the old king another choice. Of course, this is a very promising choice, and no king who has been corrupted by chaos can ignore this choice.

The old king had already instructed Lunn Bailer and the others that as long as they verified the authenticity and effectiveness of Taling's knowledge and methods on the first line of barriers, then he would immediately put all the resources accumulated and mined by the royal capital into it, and then implement it in the other front-line border defense lines. If it fails, it will be a loss at best.

The gains and losses of a barrier land, the old king, who had already prepared himself to receive the worst results, was not unacceptable.

"I brought 30,000 puppets this time, of which more than 25,000 are the lowest-level puppets, they have knight-level combat power, which is enough to deal with ordinary corrupt monsters. There are also some resources on the material, which can add more than 5,000 high-level puppets. Also, I need to build a Tower of Runes here. As a double shelter, as well as a telenet information transmission against the puppets. Taling looked at his own request.

"You also need to provide some people to receive some knowledge of the Rune Rune, and then take charge of managing and guarding the important hub of the Rune Tower! Only in the area covered by the magic net of the Rune Tower, through the resonance of the runes, can the puppets exert their maximum utility. You can also use the Nets of the Rune Tower to observe the battlefield and quickly transmit your commands to the ears of any or even hundreds of soldiers in its coverage area. ”
