Chapter 132, The Gate of Rank

readx; The Silver Wheel is arguably one of the most famous legions in the history of Elend. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

It has fought for Conrad, the Silver King, who has defeated the mighty Grey Dwarven Empire's Golden Hammer with fewer victories, who have traveled thousands of miles to fight the Hail Dragons that ravaged the Snowy Mountains, and who have fought the Radiant Templar of the Titan Order.

It followed Conrad, the King of Silver, in his many battles and established a powerful empire spanning the northern and southern continents, Byrons, becoming the third most powerful force in Ellund that could compete with the Titan Holy See and the Nature's Breath Alliance.

There are many legends left behind by the Silver Wheel Legion, but the most influential of them is the medal awarding system to soldiers and generals.

Black Bronze, Silver Medal, Gold Medal.

The Silver Wheel awards these three medals based on the soldier's contribution to the battle and the size of the individual, and due to the influence of the once powerful Byronic Empire, although the Silver Wheel is now long gone, this medal system has been inherited by the vast majority of human nations, and is not limited to soldiers - as long as you have served in the military and reached a certain level of individual strength, you can get a medal issued by the kingdom.

Of course, this is the citizenship of the human country on Elend, non-humans do not enjoy this right, and players who are standard players do not need to serve in the military, as long as the level is reached, they can automatically receive the lowest medal title given by the system.

These three medals can give citizens a high degree of prestige and popularity, and also have corresponding rights, the lowest rank of the Black Bronze Medal, but also the right to tax exemption, the highest rank of the Gold Medal, and even the right to meet the king or any nobleman.

Although players do not enjoy these rights, the title of the medal gives real attribute points, each medal has upper, middle and lower three stages, the lowest level of the black copper medal can give the player three comprehensive attribute points, and the middle section gives attribute points increased to seven points, and the upper level of attribute points is as high as twelve points, which is more than the players themselves to improve to level ten.

However, these medal titles are not so easy to obtain, the lower part of the Black Bronze Medal can be automatically obtained by the player when they reach level ten, the middle stage must be level 20, and the corresponding tasks need to be completed, and the upper stage requires level 30.

And that's just the level of the Black Bronze Medal, the Silver Medal needs to be from forty to sixty, and the Gold Medal needs to be from seventy to ninety, which is far from something that Erwin can covet now.

Of course, the title of the medal is so rare, and it is definitely not just about the enhancement of attribute points. In addition to increasing the prestige of the character, it will also give away three skill points, and at the same time enhance the basic abilities in all aspects, such as basic attack power, defense power, basic skill basics, and so on.

To put it simply, the lower part of the Black Bronze Medal is equivalent to a newbie gift package, giving players a surprise after working hard to level up.

Now that he has been promoted to the tenth level and won the title of the Black Bronze Medal, Erwin's strength has been increased to a very considerable level, and now if he leads more than thirty servants to Shangbru again, Erwin will not need Susan's assistance at all, and he will not even need to use the Ring of Heat and the Ring of Alice, he will be able to easily beat them, even against Rex.

The increase in rank and strength brought about the lightness and relaxation of the body, and after leaving Rex's office, Erwin whistled and went straight back to the hotel where he lived.

The Bruna guy hurried back to the hotel where the convoy was staying with a group of men, and Susan was certainly not going to linger any longer.

Sure enough, when Erwin returned to the hotel, Susan had already returned, staying in his room.

"Oh, I'm back so soon, I thought you'd have to talk a little more with that Miss Juliles." Erwin sat down in front of Susan, looked at her and asked, "Why, you don't seem to be in a good mood?" ”

"Nothing......" Susan replied, tugging at the single ponytail draped over her shoulders, somewhat absent-mindedly.

She was really not in a good mood, and when she was resting in the hotel where the convoy was staying with Ecilia before, she happened to meet Bruna's group and Francis, who had just returned from running nowhere.

Susan's impression of them was naturally not very good, but when she saw them, she somehow suddenly remembered the gray dove mercenary group, and her mood suddenly became indescribably low.

However, she was not an ordinary girl after all, and she quickly regained her spirits, intending to ask Erwin how things were handled at the city gate, but as soon as she looked closely, Susan suddenly stood up from her seat and stared at Erwin with a surprised expression: "You...... Have you entered the Gate of Rank? ”

Erwin was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what the door of the rank that Susan was referring to, and immediately crossed his hands on his chest, and nodded with a smile: "I accidentally went in, no way." ”

"You...... Looking for a fight?"

Looking at Erwin's ostentatious face, Susan gritted her teeth and wanted to stab him a few times with her winged bow.

Unlike the players who use levels to divide their strength, Elend's people use the rank gate to distinguish between strength and weakness, just like the spellcaster uses a ring to distinguish and identify, and the other combat classes use the rank gate, just like going up the stairs, step by step, the higher the rank, the stronger it is, and the higher you stand, the farther you can see.

Generally speaking, the caster's apprentice level corresponds to the elite warrior, and the caster of the first ring corresponds to the first rank of the rank gate.

In this stage, the minimum and upper limits of the power that can theoretically be obtained are the same, for example, Erwin's current strength is the first order of the Gate of Ranks, and theoretically, he is the same as the first ring necromancer who hunted him and Susan in the Shadow Mountains before, and the minimum and maximum limits are the same, and the difference between individuals will only fluctuate between the two values, and will not fall or exceed.

But the theory is different from the reality, because of the player's elite template, Erwin's growth far exceeds that of the people in the world of Elend, so although he is of the same rank as the necromancer, Erwin's combat strength is now several times that of the necromancer.

Players are accustomed to being distinguished by rank, while Elend's people are accustomed to using the Gate of Rank, where the first tier is equivalent to the player's level ten, the second tier is equivalent to the player's level twenty, and so on.

However, for players, level ten is just the first step to get rid of the novice rookie and embark on the journey, but for Elend's people, entering the door of the rank, even if it is only the first order of the lowest level, is a rare master, even rarer than the caster, the level of strength that most people can reach in their lifetime is only the level of elite warriors, you must know that even the demon hunting knight of the Titan Holy See is also based on the first order of the door of the rank as the qualification line.

And after entering the door of the rank, because of the increase and change of strength, the appearance and temperament of the whole person will change slightly, and it tends to be more perfect, and people with keen senses can easily find this, so Susan can see at a glance that Erwin has entered the door of the rank.

However, Susan still has a lot of doubts in her heart, because according to Erwin's previous combat performance, he should have entered the door of the rank long ago, but he is still at the level of an elite warrior, but his combat power is too unusual, and he has not entered the door of the rank quietly until today, and his performance is too abnormal.

However, there are so many doubts in Erwin, and Susan doesn't mind one or two more, she looks at Erwin's eyes, in addition to envy, there is only happiness from the heart.

After all, entering the Gate of Rank is the lifelong pursuit of many warriors, just like the lifelong dream of many apprentice spellcasters is to become a real spellcaster, Susan's father and uncle also dream of becoming a master of the Gate of Rank, so that the gray dove mercenary group can be better developed, but the talent is far from enough.

Even if it is Susan herself, her current strength is probably equivalent to that of a first-order master, but that is because she is so strong that she is blessed by perverted archery. Aside from archery, Susan is just a relatively powerful elite warrior in her own right.

"Congratulations, this is really powerful, I used to hope that one day I would be able to enter the gate of the rank and make the gray dove the strongest mercenary group, but ......" Susan's expression suddenly became a little lonely, "Even if I can succeed now, I won't need it." ”

Erwin looked at Susan's lonely expression, and suddenly understood why the girl was emotionally lost, and remembered that he cared very little about her, and always thought that Susan would stay by his side, but never considered what she thought, but think about it carefully, what kind of mood did Susan have, and what kind of relationship between the two could make her do it willingly, without the slightest resentment?

She's not a game RP made of stats, but a living, flesh-and-blood girl.

Somewhere seemed to be touched in Erwin's heart, he reached out and patted Susan's hand on the table, and the girl did not retract, but looked at him suspiciously.

"I've been looking for something to do lately, so let's create a mercenary group and think of it as a continuation of the Gray Dove." Erwin proposed.

"Huh?" Susan's eyes widened in surprise suddenly, "What are you kidding, how can two people create a mercenary group, the number of people needs at least five people, how can two people complete the commission." ”

"It doesn't matter how many people there are, we can find it slowly in the future, besides, there is no need for strict scrutiny to create a mercenary group, and the Free Guild will not care whether the entrusted mercenary group is qualified or not, right? Maybe the two of us will be as good as the other mercenary groups. ”

Creating a mercenary group is not a difficult task, either in the game or in Elend, the game immediately needs to submit an application, and in Elend, almost a few people get together, determine who the leader is, and then register with the nearest Liberals' Guild.

The most important qualifications of a mercenary group are strength, the strength to be able to fully entrust, and the eloquence to be able to convince the client to believe in your mercenary group and entrust you, only these two points are enough, and the rest are trivial things that are not worth mentioning.

Of course, if you want the mercenary group to continue to develop, integrity and efficiency are also necessary factors, because there is a blacklist in the Free Guild, and the blacklisted mercenary group should not want to operate in the Free Guild at all.

As for Susan's ability to create a mercenary group by two people, it's just that she hasn't seen it, not to mention the game, even in Elend, there are many things about creating a mercenary group alone.

The most famous is the Shadow Hunter Mercenary Regiment that has been active in the Buried Sword Hill all year round, from the head of the group to the member of the Shadow Hunter alone, but his evaluation of this one-person mercenary group is far more than many large mercenary groups, because the Shadow Hunter is a strong man who has won the Silver Medal and stepped on the fifth order of the Gate of Rank.

Therefore, Susan's worries were completely unnecessary, and Erwin did not have a playful attitude towards this matter, but genuinely wanted to create a mercenary group.

Although adventurers are not much different from mercenaries, in some things, if they are done as mercenaries and mercenaries, it will be much more convenient in all aspects, and if they are adventurers, they will always give people a feeling of meddling in them.

Susan was quickly moved by Erwin's words, and in fact, she herself has not let go of the Gray Dove Mercenary Group in her heart, after all, it is the goal of her father and her own life for more than ten years, and it can almost be regarded as a carrier of dreams, so she began to feel at a loss for the future after the Gray Dove Mercenary Group was wiped out.

And now that Erwin has discovered this, and has given Susan the goal and direction to work hard for again by creating a mercenary group, she naturally will not have any resistance or dissatisfaction, and immediately agreed after saying a few words of arrogance, and soon began to discuss with great interest what the name of this mercenary group should be.

Susan wanted to continue to call the name Greydove, but Erwin thought it was too cannon fodder, not at all lofty, not at all high-minded, not as shocking as the archers of Silvermoon.

However, Erwin's heavenly gods, giant gods, creation gods and the like were also strongly rejected by Susan, and her face was not as thick as Erwin's, so she couldn't say such a shameful name at all.

In the end, neither of them could convince anyone, so they could only put the issue aside for the time being, and wait until they came up with a good name.

"By the way, I asked the owner of the inn when I came back, the valley basin should be able to pass by now, you prepare, let's leave tomorrow."

Before returning to his room, Erwin reminded Susan.

Susan was stunned for a moment, the two of them had indeed been delayed here in Sand Shield City for a short time, and she suddenly remembered that Esilia seemed to have to see Elwin again, and seemed to want to talk to him about something.

Seeing that Erwin seemed to have forgotten about this matter, Susan hesitated, and for some reason, she still didn't remind Erwin after all, just nodded and replied, "I know." ”

Two days after the riots ended, at the strong demands of many merchants, the guards of Shadun City had to open the gates to let out the merchants who had been trapped in this remote town for many days.

No merchant dared to continue to stay in this small city, the arrival of the North Sunderland army made them panic all day, not to mention what happened last night, the news that the North Sunderland army almost broke the city spread throughout the entire Sand Shield City in the early morning of the next day, no one dared to bet that the North Sunderland army would give up, the first defeat does not mean that the second time will be the same failure. In Elend's history, there has not been an army that has not burned and plundered a city after it has been breached.

And once this kind of thing happens, the saddest end will undoubtedly be these businessmen from foreign countries who don't have a father and don't hurt their mothers.

The vast expanse of the valley outside the city had frozen into ice, and although it was impossible to move boats, the ice was thick enough for ⊥ convoys and horses to pass.

After the city gate was opened, the caravan that had been waiting for a long time rushed out of the city gate, and no one wanted to stay any longer, and soon a large torrent of people formed in the valley basin, looking down from the sky like a swarm of ants out of the nest.

Esilia woke up the next morning, and despite all the devastation she had endured last night, and the mental torture she had nightmares during the night, she was in high spirits, for she was going to see Erwin to-day.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the private relationship between men and women, and Ecilia is not hungry enough to have any feelings for a young man who has only met two or three sides, although the other party is indeed very good, but the identity is too different.

The reason why Esilia wanted to see Erwin was very simple, in fact, after Erwin left last night, although Esilia was tired, she did not rest immediately, but pestered Susan to tell her everything about the two of them, so as to grasp the general situation of this young man, a man and a woman, - outstanding strength, brains, courage, and most importantly, not belonging to any camp, not even from the northern continent.

And this is what Ecilia needs most, she is not coming back to enjoy her return this time, and there will be no shortage of battles and dangers she will face, so she needs people like Erwin and Susan.

That's right, Ecilia wanted Erwin and Susan to be her men and work for her

Of course, she didn't have the confidence to ask Erwin to do this with Susan right now, let alone ambush him twice, so Esilia was ready to reveal her identity after being rejected.

However, when Esilia arrives at the hotel where Erwin and Susan are staying, she gets news that makes her angry

"Oh? Gone silently? ”

After Rex was done with his business, he also got a report from the Mirror spy that Elwin and Susan had left Sandshield early in the morning.

"This kid, are you still afraid that I will force him to run so fast."

Rex had a regretful look on his face, but he was relieved for some reason, and then reached out and grabbed something from the table next to him.

It was a skull the size of a baby's fist, but it was only half of it, as if it had been cut through the center by a sword, and there seemed to be a mysterious glow in its dark eyes
