Chapter 434: Screening

In order to expand the army and train troops, we must first have people.

Langdon has no shortage of people, and under the extremely generous enlistment rewards and soldier treatment given by the territory, less than 3 days after the announcement of the expansion of the army was posted, more than 1,500 people came to sign up, including not only local residents of the territory, but even outsiders.

The best candidates for the soldiers are the Wicked Army, not only in the underworld, but also in the above-earth world, and there are few races that are more suitable than the Dark Elves except for various other elves who are said to be close relatives.

Therefore, 5 days after the announcement of the expansion of the army was posted and the territory officially opened for soldier recruitment, Lao Wang picked up enough 200 people, plus the original 200 villains, and left the territory with enough supplies.

Then it is the shield guardian who recruits enough people, first of all, the number of people required is small, only 100 people are needed, and secondly, the shield guard has the highest requirements for people, and it is the most special.

First of all, of course, it is the basic requirements of strength and physique, after all, it is necessary to be able to hold pure metal, and it is likely that there will be a large tower shield made of various high-grade materials, and it is also necessary to use the tower shield to resist powerful attacks, which must meet the standards.

In addition to these two basic requirements, what is needed is ...... Height and reach of the arm.

You know, a normal tower shield often has a height of about 2 meters and a width of nearly 1 meter, if you don't have enough height and arm span, even if the strength and physique are enough, you can't control the tower shield well, and although the tower shield itself has a huge defense area, but if the control is too cumbersome, it can't work.

What's more, a tower shield that can help lizardmen defend themselves is not too high to reach a height of 3 meters.

So, just in terms of height and reach, those applicants have been eliminated eight or nine times out of ten, and the rest, with a little simple screening, has left 100 people.

Half of these 100 people are lizardmen, and in the entire underground world, it is really not easy to choose someone who is tall and has enough arm span.

And the remaining half can also be regarded as "territorial elders".

Most of them are bear goblins, some of which were subdued by Langdon and helped him find the heart of the city, and the rest are also joining one after another, whether it is the upper world or the underground world, they don't discriminate against goblins, and they can also give them a serious job, and there are really not many lords with a stable living environment.

And the last remaining 10 or so positions were given to the minotaurs.

That's right, the Minotaurs, of course, are the same people who were saved by the Minotaur steward at the cost of his own life.

Since Vivien gave them to Langdon, they are natural breeders and natural warriors, but they don't have much to do in Langdon's territory, and they end up catching rock lizards and domesticating animals in their territory, and they spend most of their time idle.

And now, their courage is finally put to use again, among the 100 shield guards, they are the most outstanding in basic quality, and they are also the most suitable height and arm span, Langdon is also very optimistic that they will become outstanding high-level shield guards.

Shield Guardian is not a rare hidden profession, there are many people who know this, and there is no need for Langdon to teach him personally, he only needs to write out the manual he has for training shield guards and hand it to Lu Zijing and Zhu Lingqi, they will find someone to teach, and even as long as Hogg is given some time to let her understand and familiarize herself with this profession, she can be a teacher.

The most troublesome thing is the 200 Evil Breakers, although the Evil Breakers do not have the same special requirements for height and arm span as the Shield Guardians, but they have stricter requirements in other aspects.

The Evil Breaker uses a variety of attacks to break the opponent's attacks, so as to have a defensive effect.

Therefore, every Demon Breaker will master a large number of attack methods.

And Langdon, who obtained this profession as a transfer certificate from the system reward, can be said to have mastered almost all the attack methods that the Evil Breaker Warrior can master.

And such a variety of attack methods, although it provides the Evil Breaker Warrior with more means to break through the enemy's attacks, it also causes them more trouble.

First of all, it is very difficult to learn such a variety of attack methods, and the requirements for learners are very high, after all, not everyone can understand everything by slapping a piece of paper on themselves.

Secondly, even if you have mastered those attack methods, when facing the enemy's attack, how to reasonably use the attack methods you have mastered to defeat the opponent has become the biggest problem that the evil breaker needs to face.

In fact, everyone has such a thing as difficulty in choosing, but different people will only show it when they are faced with different degrees of choice.

For example, when it comes to buying clothes in a store, it can be difficult for many people to choose, but for many people, it doesn't seem to be a problem.

However, if the number of shops is increased, the number of clothes in the shops is increased, and the amount of money in the hands of that person is appropriately reduced, the difficulty of choosing will still appear.

Fighting is not about buying clothes, enemy flaws are fleeting, and enemies certainly can't make you think for as long as you go to a store.

Moreover, if you buy the wrong piece of clothing, at most you will not be able to wear it or wear it ugly, and then you will change it, but in battle, if you choose the wrong means of attack, then what awaits you is likely to be death!

Therefore, if you want to become an evil-breaking martial artist, not to mention other aspects, the most important thing is to have a brain that is active enough, which is understanding, if you put it in the world of martial arts or Xianxia.

And the thing of comprehension cannot be seen or touched, and Langdon does not have anything as magical as the perception tester in his hand, so it is the most difficult to select these 200 evil breakers.

However, after a few days of wrestling, Langdon finally had a solution.

At this time, the 300 candidates who had been selected before had been taken away for training, but the number of people who signed up did not decrease, but gradually increased to about 2,000.

Langdon first made a simple selection, screened out 600 people, and then left Yuanwang City with these 600 people.

Unlike Lao Wang's habit of taking people to the deep mountains and old forests, Langdon didn't take people too far, but just found a relatively open space near Yuanwang City.

Not long after they set up camp here, a convoy came in on and off, unloading a lot of strange things before leaving.

This was repeated several times, and there were almost more things piling up on the edge of the camp than tents.

These are all things that Langdon asked Lu Zijing to find someone to make after he came up with a screening method.

"Okay guys, I think you'll remember that the recruitment announcement said that this army will only recruit 200 people, so the screening is not over yet, and next, we will start the second round of screening. Langdon said loudly as he looked at the neat line of 600 people lined up in front of him.

"And the tools for screening you are over there!" he said, pointing to the large number of things piled up on the edge of the camp, "I will remind you first, the next screening will not be so friendly, there is a certain degree of danger, so those who are afraid can leave now, I will give you 10 minutes, and after 10 minutes, the people who are still here will start screening!"

"So now, the 10-minute countdown begins!"
