In fact, the promotion and promotion of the rank of captain and above in the empire has always been decided by the command, even if Zax has been promoted to a general-level officer at this time, he only has the right to make suggestions, not decision-making. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, Kane's rank really has nothing to do with Zax.

Kane was originally an honor student at the Saint Laurent Military Academy, and cadets like him were automatically promoted to the rank of second lieutenant after one year of stationing with the army.

It's just that it's a time of war, and Kane has military merits, so after Carlos reported the matter to the military department, it was logical to agree.

However, this does not mean that the promotion of military ranks is an easy thing, especially for those who have reached the middle level of military talent.

Countless cadets are recruited from major military academies every year, and even if Kane graduated from the No. 1 military academy in the empire, there are still many cadets who stop at the rank of captain all their lives, and the cadets who graduated at the same time as Kane are almost still holding the rank of warrant officer at the moment.

At this time, Zax's actions undoubtedly took advantage of people's habitual thinking, making people feel that he had the right to decide on promotion, plus the emotional speech before, just look at the excitement of the soldiers around him to know the effect.

The nervousness and uneasiness in their eyes had long since disappeared, replaced by impatience, their eyes were red with shortness of breath, and they stared enviously at the medals on Kane's chest, like lions with their fangs bared, eager to set off at this time, and make a name for themselves tomorrow.

And then, Carlos announced a bombshell news again, and this sudden surprise instantly pushed this pre-war mobilization to the climax.

After ordering Kane to return to the ranks, he looked into the eyes of the soldiers, and suddenly said with an easy-flowing smile: "I know, everyone has a lot of opinions about me these days, you are swordsmen, commanders, and some are even nobles, and I make you do some jobs that farmers can do all day long, running errands, chopping wood..."

This devil was suddenly so friendly that everyone was not used to it, but the pressure of the past disappeared, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

When he finished describing, Doro, who had always been a chatter, interjected first: "No, sir, we know that you are doing all this for our good, and we have no complaints, because you are ours..."

This guy has just been promoted to squad leader by Zax recently, and he is in a period of excitement, and it is at this time that Kane knows that this guy who is not good-looking or even a little sloppy is actually a golden swordsman!

He was like a baboon in heat, expressing his emotions at Zax, and he slapped all the sycophants without reservation, saying that it was a righteous speech and infinite lyricism, as if it was the same as the real thing, and everyone despised it.

"Really?" Zax seemed to be moved to tears, and looked at him in surprise, and said with great emotion: "Sure enough, it's the pride of the empire, I'm not wrong, in this case, if it is disbanded in a while, you can run around the training ground for three hundred laps." ”

"Uh..."

Doro, who was still complacent just now, and was as proud as an ostrich, suddenly seemed to be choked by someone's neck, and his face turned red and he couldn't speak.

"You, you!" Zax pointed at him and scolded with a smile: "You are a typical serious nonsense, you can trick yourself into it, you are really not a small skill!

"Haha!"

"Poof!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Zax turned around and continued, "I know you're all afraid of me, secretly scolding me, and even giving me a nickname, what's the name of the devil muscleman?"

Hundreds of pairs of thieves and thieves' eyes were shining brightly, and they all stared at Doro at once.

"It's... It's not me—" Dore wailed unconvincingly.

"But I told you before, and now I repeat it again, on the battlefield, only by relying on your sword and relying on your strength, can you kill the enemy and survive, and the more strength you have, the more chance you have to make meritorious contributions!"

Then, he changed his words, and suddenly said as if he was a little proud: "Everyone knows that I am a Sun Flame Swordsman..."

After a pause, he smiled childishly at the soldiers, and said mysteriously, "Do you want to see what the Sun Yan Swordsman looks like?"

As the top group of powerhouses in the empire and even in all races, there are only less than a hundred Sun Yan swordsmen registered in the empire.

A strong person like this is like a drop in the ocean in an empire with a population of hundreds of millions, and it is difficult to see them even if they meet on weekdays, let alone see them.

Legends about them are sung all over the continent by bards or knightly novels, and the legends of splitting mountains and rocks and swords in the sky will make people breathe cramped no matter how many times they listen to it or read it.

Hearing Zax say this at this moment, everyone's eyes lit up instantly, and the idea of how to punish the 'traitor' had long been thrown away, and they all nodded excitedly.

"Yes, it's not impossible," Carlos touched his chin like an old fox, and said with a desire to strip off his beard, "but I have to complete one of my training tasks." ”

As soon as they heard the word training task, the faces of the people present darkened, these days they have been tortured by this bearded man to death and life, let alone the Sun Yan Swordsman, the Holy Domain and even the God of War, they don't want to see it.

However, Zax obviously didn't let them go so easily, he smiled, and said as a scoundrel: "Since you nodded, it's up to you to choose whether you look at it or not." ”

Vile!

This is the first evaluation made in everyone's heart.

And then, they threw this evaluation out of the clouds, and all that was left in their heads was one word-

Shock!

"See clearly!"

Just like a thunderclap exploded on a flat bottom, and like an ancient and heavy sonorous bell, Zax's voice suddenly exploded at this moment, drawing everyone's attention.

The golden-red intertwined fighting qi poured out of his body at once, and quickly spread along his armor to his whole body, enveloping it in an instant.

Immediately after that, he seemed to lift his right foot slightly, and seemed to put it down slowly, but at this moment, everyone clearly felt that the ground suddenly trembled!

His whole body soared into the air, like a god of war in golden armor, and at this moment even overshadowed the sun's brilliance!

A giant sword several meters high, completely cast by light, condensed like substance, appeared silently, hanging vertically in front of his raised right hand, wrapped in boundless power!

As his right arm slid down, the Optimus Greatsword was already moving, and it was stuck straight into the row of training stakes in the northwest corner of the training ground in the direction where Zax's arm had slid down.

"Boom!~"

A loud bang exploded on the training ground, as if a meteorite had fallen from the sky, and there were bursts of violent vibrations on the ground, and everyone felt pain in their eardrums, and even had a brief period of deafness.

The hustle and bustle ahead, as if the end is coming!

And when the smoke and dust cleared, the scene in front of him stunned everyone present.

A cone-shaped pit several meters wide and a man-high depth had appeared on the ground, and the training stakes that had been repeatedly blessed by magic that even the Golden Swordsman could not destroy on the training ground had completely disappeared, leaving only the wood chips that had turned into powder to float in the air.

Looking at the proud figure standing in the dust and smoke, everyone unconsciously shrunk their necks, and then they suddenly felt that this chief was so gentle.

"Father will kill this guy!" Luo Yan, who had recovered from her surprise, smashed her tongue and looked at the messy open space in front of her, surprised and sighed

Hundreds of training stakes, that's an astronomical asset.

She seemed to understand a little bit as to why this guy had only been promoted to brigadier general now.

Before everyone could recover from the shock, Zax turned around and walked over, and continued: "This move is my own combat skill, according to the rating of the empire, it is rated as excellent and high-level, and I named it the Dreadnought Sword."

Combat skills are combat skills that every swordsman can master and must be urged by fighting spirit, and are divided into four levels according to the imperial classification: ordinary, excellent, legendary, and mythical, and each level is divided into three levels: low, medium and high.

With that, Zax took a long sword from the weapon rack next to him and sketched it on the ground, and as his strokes began, the crowd was completely boiling.

Because that's the lucky route that calls the fighting spirit!

As everyone's hearts raced, Zax confirmed everyone's guesses and truthfully surprised everyone: "This is the roadmap of this Dreadnought Sword, and the task I have assigned to you is to learn how to use it in this war, and I will reward the first one to learn it!"

Combat skills, a war resource with huge lethality, have always been firmly controlled by the empire, except for a few powerful families with some advanced combat skills, at most the ones that have fallen out have only reached the level of ordinary high-level.

It is conceivable how great the impact of Zax's words was, and Rao Yiluo's martial arts family was still inevitably short of breath at this time.

For a while, everyone stared at the pattern on the ground and racked their brains to record it in their minds.

But at this moment, a very discordant voice suddenly sounded.

"Sir!" Mars seemed to have learned to be polite after all these days of torture, and at least he no longer dared to act like no one in front of Zax.

With a military salute, he stepped out, his narrow eyes sweeping in Kane's direction, followed by a mocking and sarcastic smile.

He then sneered bitterly, "As far as I know, combat skills should be at least learned and mastered by silver swordsmen, of course I'm not questioning your decision, just for those who don't even have silver... Poor creatures, they are destined to be denied your reward, will they be resentful of dissatisfaction? Especially those... Honors?"
