Chapter 738: The Prototype of the Army

Crossing the abyss, Benjamin and his party did not stay too long in the world of the dead, but collected some research materials and returned to the Academy of Magic.

Elizabeth left with the two mages and went back to Freden. Miles was forcibly persuaded by Benjamin to stay in the academy so that the old men of the magic department could study his physique properly.

But...... After returning to the academy after several twists and turns, he has not forgotten the most important thing at the moment.

"How are our secret forces organized?"

Wallis replied, "Dean, come with me." ”

A wasteland outside the town, through uninhabited woods, Benjamin, led by Wallis, finally arrives at a secret camp hidden in the woods.

In the camp, young men in uniform came and went. A familiar guy dressed in a general's clothes was directing the gang to run around. The queue didn't look very neat, and it could even be called scattered, but many people gathered together, and it was gradually showing a momentum.

The whole camp didn't look big, and the system probably scanned a bit, and there were probably only a few hundred soldiers stationed here.

Hundreds of people...... It's a start!

Benjamin was not disappointed. Now the entire magic prop department is desperately trying to make the Holy Light Cannon, and the rune equipment produced is very small, and it is difficult to meet the supply of thousands of people.

"These soldiers are from the town of Akademi, and after our strict screening, there can be no spies from the Church or other countries. Wallis said, "But...... Among them, almost all of them are desperate homeless people, because they are helpless, so there is no possibility of leaking secrets. Of course, such a quality requires a good training. ”

Benjamin nodded, but didn't say anything.

The most important thing in the establishment of this special unit is secrecy. In order to prevent the news from leaking out even a little bit, you can only recruit some homeless people who have no relatives and no reason, which is also a way to do no way.

However, after being recruited, as long as it is managed in a closed manner, it is trained well to create a tough military camp atmosphere. Even wandering can produce transformation.

As for the instructors of the training......

"Knight Captain Reims, I didn't expect you to be dragged by him to work as a coolie. ”

A former chief knight from Fredon who has been depressed since the shogun came to power. Therefore, Benjamin recruited him to the academy very early. And when this special unit was about to be raised by Jani, Wallis pulled him in.

"Lord Benjamin, how can it be a coolie? When Lance saw the two of them, he immediately ran over and saluted with great respect, "It's been a long time since I've led a soldier to fight, and I'm really grateful that you're willing to entrust this important task to your subordinates." ”

In the barracks, his whole temperament has also changed, unlike the usual jokes with Benjamin, now he is a tight string, and his attitude is like facing an inspecting monarch.

Benjamin was a little unaccustomed, but he also understood that this was a necessary process to build military prestige.

So, he nodded and asked, "So...... How is your training now? How long will it take to get into shape?"

"If you really want them to go to war, it will take at least half a year. Lance replied, "These people are in poor physical condition, let alone fighting powerful priests with those runic equipment. They're still far from it!"

Benjamin rubbed his temples, also feeling a little helpless.

Half a year......

He went to danger this time, and finally bought some time for this side. But for half a year, that's an almost impossible task. Unless the church itself abandons its intention to attack, no matter how much he burns the grain corps and causes more riots, it will not be possible to postpone the church's battle plan for half a year.

It seems that this army will probably not be needed for the next dispatch of troops by the church.

"It's okay, train hard, half a year is half a year. However, Benjamin, of course, did not show this, but patted Lance on the shoulder, smiled and encouraged, "Half a year later, I believe that the whole world will be shocked by you." ”

Lance's stiff face finally showed a slight smile.

"Of course. ”

Benjamin nodded, turned around, and walked into the ranks of the soldiers. These people were from the town of Akademi, and naturally they all knew Benjamin, and they also showed a hundred and twenty points of strength, gritting their teeth and continuing to run forward.

It can be seen that most of these people are indeed very thin. I don't know how many laps I have run, and some of them are already shaky and their eyes are blurred.

After thinking about it, Benjamin suddenly cast an elemental command, and a thin rain enveloped the camp.

- The tempering of the will is indeed a very important part of training, but to be honest, the physical strength is like this, and many people still have some hidden diseases in their bodies, in this case, it is better to ensure that their physical fitness keeps up.

The healing of magic can not only restore their physical strength, but also improve their physical fitness to a certain extent for those who are born with poor constitution and speed up the formation of this army.

In the rain, the soldiers showed shocked expressions.

"What kind of magic is this? It's drilling into my body!"

"That's amazing! Master Benjamin's magic...... I feel like I'm full of strength, and a steady stream of power is coming to me!"

Lance frowned, and immediately shouted, "Mutter something! Keep running! Since Lord Benjamin has performed healing magic on you, then you can give me another fifty laps today!"

His voice echoed through the barracks, and the soldiers let out a wail, but they also ran harder. Benjamin couldn't help but think of the time when he was trained in the military at Haven Wright.

It's been a long time coming......

However, from the eyes of these soldiers looking at Benjamin, it can be seen that they are actually full of awe and gratitude.

As a group of homeless people, this secretly built army completely changed their lives. They can have food to eat, a quilt to cover, and more importantly, a muddy life is suddenly given a different meaning.

- They will change the world.

So, despite being just a bunch of recruit eggs, Benjamin is unexpectedly hopeful for them.

Thinking so, he smiled and stopped his magic, which can be regarded as the end of this inspection. Troops were not built up overnight, and they needed to be more prepared to deal with the imminent threat of the Church.

So, he turned around and left the camp in the woods with Wallis.
