Chapter 3: The Reserves of the Hurricane Knights! middle
(Today's first chapter arrives!) Thank you book friends for the eternal red sun reward! Ask for collections, ask for tickets, ask for tickets, ~~~~~~~)
Of course, Rhodes understood the guard's kind reminder, and at the same time, he also understood that he wanted to join the Hurricane Knights, even if it was a test that the Hurricane Knights Reserve would encounter!
In this world and on the planet, the military of any country has some special rules of its own, and perhaps these rules are not written on paper or military orders. But these invisible rules affect everyone in the army, so that everyone who is willing to join the army will unconsciously abide by it.
For example, if Rhodes wants to join the Hurricane Knights Reserve, even if he has a token of joining the Hurricane Knights Ancestors as a stepping stone, he still needs to pass the relevant tests of the Hurricane Knights Reserve, otherwise if the test fails, he should go home obediently!
In the army, a place where only fists and strength are recognized, if Rhodes doesn't want to be underestimated, then he needs to show his fists when he conducts a test.
However, for Rhodes himself, the headache is not to show how big his fists are, but to show how much he should exert the strength of his lowest rank body to more than 25 points, which can be called an out-and-out bronze rank
"Let's show the strength to step into the pinnacle of gray iron"
Rhodes followed the guard as he thought to himself.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Led by the Hurricane Knights guard, the guards at the gate only asked a few words before letting Rhodes and the guard enter the apprentice knight camp.
When Rod stepped onto the training ground, he was greeted by a wave of countless shouts.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! You little ones!"
"Kill! Kill!"
"Boom - Boom Boom"
Just entering the camp, Rhodes saw hundreds of reserve hurricane knights wearing half-length imitation knight steel armor on a training ground in front of him, driving their war horses to practice the ultimate move of group charge. The scene of hundreds of apprentice knights wearing horse armor and half-knight armor charging in a group was extremely spectacular, and only a hundred people and horses charged but there was a momentum of breaking the obstacles in front of them!
As for the other training grounds, there are also a large number of trainee knights engaged in various exercises and confrontations, and at a glance, Rhodes is reminded of the scene when he participated in military training in his previous life - but the training of the reserve of the Hurricane Knights is definitely much more terrifying than the military training of universities on Earth!
The guard was obviously used to this situation, and without saying a word, he led Rhodes through the various training grounds in full swing, towards a four-story black stone building in the camp.
When Rhodes got closer, he saw the sign in front of the building's gate that read "Hurricane Knights Trainee Knights Headquarters" in the common language of humanity.
"It would be nice to remove the words 'trainee knight', but it really adds up"
Seeing this door number, Rod couldn't help but complain in his heart.
The name Trainee Knight sounds pretty good, but it is actually a good name for a knight's squire and a servant, and generally those who can't inspire a full-fledged knight for various reasons and can only serve as a knight's squire are called trainee knights.
Of course, it is conceivable how much moisture this kind of trainee knight name has.
Rhodes himself didn't care about the name, because his mind wasn't in the Hurricane Knights Reserve Camp at all, or even in the Hurricane Knights' reserve camp
"Uncle Vir, I've brought you a new person again!"
While Rhodes was still thinking a little divergently, the guard, who didn't notice that Rhodes was actually wandering, seemed to see an acquaintance and greeted an old-looking man at the entrance of the Cadet Knight's headquarters.
"Little Saxel, I'm bringing someone here again."
The old man, who looked to be about fifty or sixty years old, with a gray beard and a hunched waist, slowly raised his head, glanced at the guard named Tsarker, and then spoke weakly.
"Uncle Weir, let's report this little guy to the test first!"
Looking at Old Will, who reacted slowly and seemed to be Alzheimer's, Shack said with a headache.
This old Vir is not an ordinary person, he is the predecessor who retired from the Hurricane Knights, although even if he retired, he was only a bronze knight, but even if the strength of this old qualification is not strong, he is also quite respected in the legion. For this reason, even though the old man was almost eighty years old, he still held a position similar to that of a pension in the camp of the Trainee Knights.
"Ahem, little one, come with me!"
The Bronze Knight Will, who is now in a bad state and is estimated to not even be able to beat the peak of gray iron, coughed twice and said to Rod.
"Yes! Vel Knight!" Out of respect for the old man, Rod responded respectfully, then turned to the Sark Knight who was about to leave and said, "Thank you, Sark Knight!"
"You're welcome! Let's do it."
Thack, who had turned around to leave, stopped when he heard Rod's words, looked at Rhodes for a moment, nodded and said a word, and then turned around and left the barracks.
After saluting Tark's back, Rod turned and followed the old Vir into the midshipman's headquarters.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Half an hour later, on a training ground for the trainee knights, Rhodes followed a blind but still very strong knight into the training ground.
"It's all stopped!! Collection !!!"
The knight, who looked at least two meters and three meters up, and wore knight's armor to give people a feeling like a steel wall, walked into the training ground and saw that everyone was still training hard, and nodded slightly. Then the tall one-eyed knight shouted loudly, and the loud and abnormal sound made hundreds of trainee knights and more than a dozen instructors in this training ground stop their movements and began to quickly stand in front of the one-eyed knight.
"Report to the Grand Knight of Leibnis! Training Ground No. 15 has all assembled!!"
After everyone was lined up in a neat formation (relative to this world), a Bronze Knight instructor in his mid-forties stepped out and saluted the one-eyed silver knight named Leibnis.
"It's all old, weak, sick and disabled, and it seems that the camp of the apprentice knights is indeed the place where those are housed"
Standing behind Leibnis, Rhodes looked at the dozen or so Bronze Knight instructors with more or less disabilities in front of him, and after a little thought, he understood the origin of these Bronze Knight instructors in the apprenticeship knight camp.
Although there are magical healing potions and healing magic in this world, injuries such as disability and severed limbs cannot be restored by ordinary healing potions and healing magic. And in a place like Scarlet Canyon, one of the after-effects of the confrontation with the orc empire, which is known for its bravery, the last thing that human beings lack is the dead and wounded!
In addition to those who can heal and return to the battlefield, those soldiers who are disabled and cannot go to the battlefield (especially the seriously wounded in the middle and lower ranks) are obviously not easy to accommodate, and it is obviously a good idea to transfer them to logistics or recruit training bases
"Listen, you've been training in the Trainee Knights for almost half a year, and now there's a new member ready to join the Hurricane Knights Trainee Sequence! You little ones should understand what's next."
As many thoughts crossed Rod's mind, the one-eyed silver knight named Leibnis looked in front of him, smiled a little playfully, and said loudly.
Hearing the words of the Grand Knight of Leibnis, one of the highest echelons in the entire training camp, the eyes of all the trainee knights and Bronze Knight instructors present "brushed" to Rod who was standing behind Leibnis. Everyone's eyes were different, and there were obviously surprises, amusement, curiosity, hostility and other emotions in Rhodes' eyes.
Everyone present understood that the so-called next thing to do was to take a test to see if Rhodes had the qualifications to join the Hurricane Knights Trainee Rider sequence of the Hurricane Legion aces. Those bronze knight instructors were fine, but the apprentice knights of the Hurricane Knights looked at Rhodes with unfriendly eyes.
After all, the trainee knights present were no better than Rhodes, and most of them were selected with hard work and then sent to the Hurricane Knights trainee knight sequence. Although it is normal for Rhodes to temporarily plan to join the reserves of the Hurricane Knights by virtue of his ancestors' military exploits, it is not the same in the eyes of most people who have worked hard to get in!
However, to the surprise of people, including the great knight Leibnis, Rhodes, who was under the gaze of more than 300 people, did not show any panicked expression, and his calm (or calm) expression withstood everyone's gaze.
"According to the rules for the entry of the Cadet Knight, who among you would like to be the examiner?" Leibnis looked at Rhodes with a hint of interest in his eyes, then turned his head and shouted loudly to the hundreds of apprentice knights present.
"I do!"
"I do, too!"
"Let me come!"
Hearing Leibnis's questioning, almost seventy percent of the cadet knights said that they were willing to have a test full of "friendship" and "enthusiasm" with Rhodes.
"Nima's" looked at this scene, Rod's face turned a little dark, is this when he is a soft persimmon?
"You, come out and prepare!"
Leibnis ignored Rhodes's complaints in his heart, and after glancing around among the trainee knights who enthusiastically expressed it, he simply selected a seventeen or eighteen-year-old trainee knight who was about to arouse his fighting spirit.
"Yes! Your Excellency the Great Knight!"
