With the arrival of the Ninth and Eleventh Corps of the Millennial Empire in the Arcane Ring, the atmosphere of war is getting stronger and stronger, and everyone is preparing for a holy war comparable to that of the Church and the wizarding world a hundred years ago.

The supplies and equipment in the points market are getting more and more expensive, and by the way, the prices of ores, medicinal materials, and magic raw materials have also been pushed up, compared with last year, the average increase in the points market is as high as fifty percent, and a few best-selling products have even increased in price by two to three times, especially the price of potions, the points depreciation is very bad, after Charlie buys the two spell mirrors of Star Fall and Summoning the Water Element, the remaining 8000 points can hardly buy anything.

Charlie simply sold the enchantment service of the Extreme Flame on the points market, and because of his wonderful performance in the Magic Creativity Competition, the magic pattern of the Extreme Flame became famous in the industry, and its suppressive effect on evil creatures was widely recognized, so when he posted on the platform to provide the enchantment service of the Extreme Flame, the orders flew like snowflakes.

Almost all of them are apprentices of the Arcane Ring, and the apprentices who have survived until now have more or less extraordinary personal strength, and are vigilant enough, and they are also very life-saving, they have seen the horror of the devil, and they know the value of this enchantment, and with the same strength, whoever has it will have a chance to survive.

"If you use all your strength to activate the Holy Flame, its effect will only last for about 2 hours, if there is no fight, it will lose its effect within 6 hours, and if you keep it in a container with a demon-sealing effect, it will last for three days, you should know what to do, right?" Charlie handed over an enchanted arrow and gave him a few thoughtful words.

The other party smiled and said, "Got it, thank you, Master Charlie." ”

Before he knew it, Charlie also gained some recognition in the minds of the apprentices of the Olympiad Ring.

At the end of the first order, 5000 points arrived, and the cost of the ink consumed was less than 400 points, which can be said to be a profitable business, and based on the complexity of the extremely effective holy flame, many magic seal carving apprentices could not master, there are not many people in the academy who can provide this kind of service, and most of the people who have the strength to provide this kind of service are professor-level magic seal carvers, and they can't look at this profit, so Charlie almost monopolizes this business.

Taking advantage of the preparation period before the start of the war, Charlie earned a total of 90,000 points, on the one hand, because of the test of life and death, people do not want to have the regret that their points have not been spent at the moment of life and death; on the other hand, in order to improve the enthusiasm of the apprentices, the academy has greatly increased the points rewards for various tasks, and during the time of fighting against the monsters of hell, the students have earned valuable points in their hands.

Sadly, when the apprentice scraped together a considerable amount of points, he found that these points could buy far less than in the past, for example, the red dragon ring that Charlie once fancied, before the war it was priced at 90,000 points, and now it is priced at 200,000 points, which has more than doubled.

This is the sorrow of being a pawn, where the rule-maker will play with the rules, and the obedient can only suffer this exploitation in silence.

Of course, there is another important reason for such a strong depreciation of points: in the wilderness aid operation, the academy lost a large number of teachers, many of whom were makers of magic equipment and potions, which immediately led to a large reduction in the shipment of various magic guides and potions, and the market was affected by the relationship between supply and demand, which produced such a terrible point depreciation effect.

At this time, Charlie didn't know that because of the closure of the Skyrim Harbor, the price of magic equipment in various regions of the continent had risen sharply, and many high-end equipment produced by the Arcane Ring were marked at sky-high prices.

As a result, in the context of the empire has been blocking news, some rumors have inevitably arisen, making people feel that an eventful autumn is coming.

Charlie quickly spent 90,000 points, most of which were used to buy large quantities of seeds for various precious medicinal herbs: foxtail flowers, anselel flowers, Sherlock grass, fiery bulbs, Scaron flyivores, ghost mushrooms, etc., such slow-yielding materials were disposed of at low prices by sellers and exchanged for points because they could not catch up with their harvest period.

The Sunset Elves are good at growing all kinds of medicinal herbs, Charlie has long thought of this, he plans to cultivate a medicine garden in the half-plane, and I believe that the Sunset Elves are also willing to complete such a task and help him take care of the medicine garden.

Charlie used all the remaining points to buy health potions and mana potions to deal with some unexpected situations and improve his ability to sustain combat.

As Charlie expected, the apprentices of the Arcane Ring were incorporated into the military to form a capable squad, in the original military formation, a team usually consisted of 10 knights, 20 infantry warriors, 5 longbowmen and 3 military magicians, and now each team has an additional 15 apprentices, including warriors, mages, and in a few elite teams, even teachers.

Both the military and the academy have their own captains, and under normal circumstances, the captain of the academy is required to obey the orders of the military captain, unless these orders are contrary to the principle of cooperation between the two parties, the captain of the academy can refuse to obey, but must be held accountable for this, and if a reasonable reason cannot be given, he will be tried by the military court after the war.

With 6,000 soldiers and more than 3,000 Arcane Ring apprentices, more than 170 combat squads of 50 men were formed, more than the Nexus Plains Aid Program could use.

As the team is still in the run-in stage, the squad will not go deep into the Devil's Plain, but will only patrol an area within a radius of twenty kilometers around the academy, and each team will be guaranteed at least six hours of training time every day, and the rest of the time will be at the discretion of the apprentices.

Prince Ryan took advantage of his position to transfer a group of people such as Qianji, Leon, Charlie, and David to the vanguard group, which also means that if you stand in line and choose Prince Ryan, you will inevitably be jealous of Wei Ning, which is an unavoidable problem.

After really following the vanguard regiment to do actual combat training, Charlie realized the gap between them and the army.

In terms of individual strength, even a one-year Arcane Ring apprentice has an average strength of about level 11, and the second and third grade apprentices even reach an average of level 13, which is two levels higher than these soldiers, and it stands to reason that the combat effectiveness of the apprentices should be much stronger than these soldiers, which is indeed the case, but when these soldiers form an army, the situation is different.

Taking espionage intelligence as an analogy, Charlie feels that he has been careful enough to spy on information, and he has some particulars about how to act, how to get close to the target, and how to send back information.

But leaving the same thing to the military is even more complicated.

First of all, there are many particulars in the selection of scouts, which require quick action, quick thinking, and keen observation, and are divided into fixed types such as secret sentinels, mobile reconnaissance and assassins, and different types have different responsibilities.

Secondly, they have a special contact method to deal with different scenarios, taking into account all kinds of unexpected situations, and there is a high possibility that the message will be passed back after an accident.

Third, there is a very detailed plan for handling anomalies, and after the secret outpost is discovered, what will happen to those who are in danger of life and those who are not in danger of life? What equipment is available to deal with such a scenario? How to deal with a major enemy situation after mobile reconnaissance discovers it? What are the ways to deal with a successful or failed assassination?

In this case, the soldiers are like delicate parts, each of them can play their own strengths, not only that, but the military has also developed a number of magic items to cooperate with scouts, such as: a flare cannon that can instantly emit magic fireworks, a poison pill hidden in dentures, and a magic resonator that supports sending Mani codes.

A set of strategies and contingency plans to ensure that the news is delivered in a timely and effective manner, this is the difference between professional and non-professional, Charlie also constantly analyzes and sorts out through the chip, and sorts out a complete set of scout plans and army establishments of the military of the Millennium Empire without anyone to teach, which can be used to form his own corps in the future.

If a group of highly specialized military personnel had been in place to carry out the wilderness aid program for Mr. Alfred, and had been given enough knowledge and information in advance to give the teachers and apprentices sufficient time to react, it would probably have been a different outcome.

In fact, after fully understanding the characteristics of hellish creatures, Charlie found that they were not without flaws and were not invincible.

At the temporary headquarters of the vanguard army, watch as groups of scouts methodically return information and control the area within a radius of ten kilometers.

Qian Jue couldn't help but sigh: "This is the quality of a regular army! If we had achieved this level at that time, how could we have been killed by the devil so many people!"

Ryan was a little proud, and said with a smile: "After all, it is the main battle corps of the empire, if it doesn't have this quality, how can the thousand-year-old empire have its current achievements?!"

Charlie said: "Everything related to the military, whether it is a system or an object, embodies one principle: applicability and reliability.

For the system to be applicable and reliable, it must be thoughtful and comprehensive, which is why there is such a complex system, which is the lesson of blood and tears in the past.

For items to be applicable and reliable, it is necessary to guarantee their quality and have practical application scenarios, and a full-fledged army never does something meaningless.

From here, it can be seen that the professionalism and professionalism of the 9th and 11th Corps are worthy of the honor of the Imperial Main Battle Corps.

In fact, from this point of view, the Arcane Ring is also relatively professional, but its purpose is to cultivate magical talents with breadth or depth, and the direction of efforts is different, and the applicable scenarios are also different.

It's not appropriate for you to compare the advantages of the Arcane Ring with the advantages of the main battle legion. ”

Qianzhu nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. ”

Ryan glanced at Charlie in surprise and said, "Charlie, I didn't expect you to have a talent for military affairs?"

Charlie smiled and said, "That's just paper." ”
