801. Decisions
If these cavalrymen were to pay out of their own pockets and use gold coins to buy these rewards on the merit exchange list, then they would definitely be reluctant to spend this money, and they would definitely tie the mouth of the bag containing gold coins tightly, and they would not be willing to take out a copper plate.
However, when the success points of the fighters are counted in battle, and all the rewards on the merit exchange list are exchanged for these merits, it feels different in an instant.
A group of horsemen surrounded the notice board in front of the cafeteria, and everyone huddled in front of the notice board to look at the reward items on it.
The reward in the first place is a complete set of primary strength magic pattern construction, not to mention that most of these cavalry are civilians from the barren land, even those who have some small property in the reinforcement army of nobles and merchant children, are completely immersed in excitement and excitement, such a set of primary strength magic pattern construction for them, it can be regarded as a lifetime of wealth for them.
It is said that in some aristocratic baronesial families, the first child will inherit the title, manor and domain, the second child will inherit the family's trading house and mines, and the third child will inherit the family's magic pattern structure. It can be seen that the magic pattern construction is also a great wealth for the nobles.
(Provided, of course, that the noble baron had only three sons and that he still had so much property.) )
But the problem is that such a set of magic pattern constructs actually requires 100,000 merit points.
At present, there is only one person who can have so many merit points, and that is Captain Samira of the archer brigade, and she has accumulated 120,000 merit points on the battlefield. Even Captain Andrew, who is in second place, currently has a merit value of just over 70,000.
Andrew has the 'Earth Shield' Magic Pattern Construct at the primary top level, so naturally he doesn't need this Junior Strength Magic Pattern Build.
Therefore, this power-type demonic pattern structure seems to have been tailor-made for Samira by Commander Surdak, and if Samira wants it, no one can snatch her at all......
What makes all the soldiers in the barracks feel desperate is that there is no reason why people should not want such a set of magic pattern constructs!
Therefore, the squadron leaders who have a certain merit value in their hands have decided to put their goals in the second to fourth places, and it is actually not bad to have a single item of magic pattern construction, and they may be able to make a piece of it in the future, which will not be much worse than a complete set of magic pattern construction.
Adams returned from the north wall of the city and had just chatted with Gallatin when he heard from his cronies that the exchange merit list had been updated again.
At first, the two of them didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that if it was a magic pattern, they already had it, unless it was an excellent magic weapon with excellent attributes, and they might still be a little interested.
However, the two exchanged two magic patterns, Adams only has more than 40,000 merit points, Gallatin is even worse, and the merits he has earned recently have been repaid to Adams, he is a very complete poor egg, and it is estimated that he can't even exchange those magic weapons.
Hearing from his cronies that the number one on the merit exchange list was actually a set of power-type magic pattern constructs, Adams was completely stunned, thinking that he had worked hard in the army for several years, and had been raising money to buy demon pattern constructs, but he didn't expect that now there was actually a set of demon pattern constructs on the merit exchange list.
In order to confirm the truth of what his men said, Adams and Gallatin personally went to the door of the cafeteria.
When you see at least two or three hundred onlookers in front of the notice board, you know that this should be true.
Everyone saw Adams and Gallatin walking together, and the ordinary soldiers moved out of the way, allowing Adams and Gallatin to walk unimpeded to the front of the notice board.
Seeing the row of delicate imperial characters on it, Gallatin exclaimed, "What a set of primary power magic pattern construction, it is said to be a brand new ......"
Adams ran his hand over the stubble on his chin, thinking about how he could redeem the Magical Pattern Build.
At this time, Gallatin poked him in the ribs with his elbow and whispered to him: "I said don't think about it, your merit value is still tens of thousands of dollars away from being exchanged, look at that ...... It is estimated that this set of magic pattern constructs is still on the exchange list, purely for everyone to see, at least there is a sense of expectation in my heart, and it may be exchanged tomorrow morning. ”
Adams looked down at Samira, a half-elven archer who was bringing a smoked fish and an avocado out of the cafeteria.
She has always been a maverick in the barracks, almost never communicating with people. Now passing in front of the notice board, the warriors who were in awe of her moved out of the way in advance.
Samira also stopped in front of the notice board at this time, her face hidden in her hood, and a black veil over her face, not many warriors had seen her face.
The graceful figure wrapped in fiery red leather armor was extremely slim, and it looked a little out of place with these warriors covered in iron armor.
She also stood in the corner and browsed the items on the merit redemption list......
The scattered crowd gathered around again.
Adams said a little depressedly: "Hey, you said that if we are more diligent and harder, is there a chance to redeem it?" ”
Without hesitation, Gallatin replied: "No! ”
Then he put his arm around his friend Adams' shoulder, pointed to the comment column below, and said, "You don't see that the exchange rules written above have been changed, and you must earn merit to complete the exchange. ”
Adams' expression darkened, and he sighed unwillingly and said, "Forget it, the magic pattern construction of that power-type item is actually not bad, I'll go and redeem that one tomorrow morning!" ”
"Well, that's actually pretty good!" Gallatin agreed.
At this moment, Samira suddenly walked to the bottom of the notice board with a dinner plate in her hand, took out a charcoal pen from the bracket below, walked directly to her name in the merit ranking, crossed out her name with charcoal without hesitation, and then stood in front of the notice board, calmly said to the soldiers gathered here, and said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "Although it is only a temporary decision, I think it is necessary to tell you that I abstain from voting on this merit reward exchange!" ”
After saying that, Samira left the bulletin board with an indifferent face.
The rest of the warriors went completely berserk.
A group of horsemen were giggling and chatting over there:
"You said Captain Samira...... Why did they suddenly abstain, doesn't that mean that we all have a chance? ”
"Get out, just your thousands of merit points, before the beast tide ends, if you can make up 10,000 merits, I will obey you!"
"Do you want us to bet ......"
At this time, Adams, who was standing under the notice board, only felt that a fire suddenly burned in his heart, and his whole body became very energetic.
He confidently whispered to Gallatin, "From tomorrow onwards, as long as we are not on duty on the walls, we will go out hunting, and we will have to make up all the remaining merits no matter what......
Gallatin put his arm around Adams' shoulder and said, "No problem. ”
……
The squadron leader of the 3rd Squadron handed Selena the merit book recorded in the town of Plantos and immediately slipped out.
Selena looked at the whole account book and the statistics were messy, and the names of some cavalrymen could appear several times in the same account book, but fortunately, when recording these exploits, there was a description of which battle and which battle, so as to avoid duplicate records of merits.
Seeing that it was approaching dusk outside, Samira rubbed the corners of her eyes and stored the files in a file box.
Preparing to stop what she was doing, Surdak deposited a batch of valuable materials in the logistics department in the afternoon, and handed her an account before dinner......
Looking at the backlog of papers on her desk, Selena frowned beautifully.
To unify this part of the merit into the general ledger of the military camp station, this work will take about three days to be busy.
Now the burden on her shoulders is a bit heavy, but unfortunately there are no academy students in Surdak's cavalry battalion, which is also the shortcoming of this cavalry battalion, which is basically composed of veterans and recruits in the barren land, many people don't know the imperial language, and want to find a few clerks, no one is willing to do this kind of statistical work of the logistics department.
And there are also some problems on the battlefield, and many times these cavalrymen don't know what to do without the leadership of the executor.
Of course, these troubles belong to Surdak, and Selena just hopes that there will be a few more people in the logistics department.
……
Selena got home, pushed open the door and smelled the smell of barbecue.
The barbecue has some basil leaves added to it, and the taste is somewhat special, it must be Nika cooking in the kitchen, and adding this spice to the barbecue is a taste of the aboriginal people of the White Forest Plane.
Selena went upstairs to change into a homely dress before going into the kitchen to prepare dinner with Nika.
But it didn't seem like she needed help anymore, Nika had already started preparing the last vegetable soup, and Signa was stepping on a small stool and washing a few carrots in front of the sink, she was doing it very carefully, and before she knew it, Signa was also a little older, at least able to do what she could in the kitchen.
Surdak sat in the dining room with a pot of black tea and a plate of biscuits on the table, and it was rare to see him so idle.
Seeing Selena walk in in a low-cut cotton dress, Surdak talked to her about the merchant Malacombe, about the gorgeous tent he had given him, and some beautiful furniture, which were nothing in the first place, and were insignificant compared to the large deals made between the two.
The only thing that bothered Surdak was the maids that Malacombe had left behind, and he simply didn't know how to settle them, the barracks were certainly inconvenient, and he couldn't rent a house in the town specifically to accommodate them.
Selena pursed her lips and smiled, sitting next to Surdak, tilting her head to stare at him.
A pair of amber eyes are full of magnificent colors, she belongs to the kind of woman who is particularly attractive, the more she looks at it, the more she feels the taste, the delicate facial features are very well matched, especially the lips are particularly sexual. Sense, with maturity. The unique charm of a woman makes people feel particularly charming just by looking at her.
"What are you going to do?" Selena asked curiously.
Surdak scratched his hair and said: "I plan to settle them down and find something to do every day, so that they will not feel bored in life, after all, there are many things in Dodan Town now, just find some things for them, or let them dry the hard armor of the ghost tattooed soldier ants, so many hard armor skins are dried every day, and the cavalry soldiers of the three squads need to be mobilized......"
"Do you think they can do things like drying hard nails?" Selena asked Surdak with some sneer.
She had worked as a maid at Hoyle Manor for several years, and naturally knew that a maid was not equal to a hard labor in the workshop.
"So what can they do?" Surdak took a sip of his tea and complained, "A group of young and beautiful maids, no matter where they stay, will be a big trouble!" ”
Selena knew that this was indeed his trouble, and thought that Miss Hathaway of the Marquis of Luther's house and Miss Beatrice of the Gophilo house would have to come to the town of Dodan to visit him in a month's time, if she saw so many warblers around him...... It's hard to say whether there will be a fight.
I heard that the ladies of the aristocratic family are not very good-tempered, at least Miss Hoyle's temper is very bad.
"Okay, I'll help you settle them, but it's only temporary, you can't let them stay in Dodan forever!" Selena told Surdak that the young girls had an incomparable beauty of youth and seductive bodies, and she did not want these maids to stay.
Surdak hugged Selena's soft, round shoulders and said to her, "Don't you organize the town's natives to attend Mass every week?" I always hear you say that you don't have enough people, or let them help you. ”
Selena picked up a small biscuit, elegantly stuffed it into her mouth, covered her lips with her hand and said, "That's a good note." ”
Dinner was served quickly, and Nika's craftsmanship was not bad, roasting dried meat with whole wheat bread and vegetable soup.
Signa sat quietly beside Nika.
Selena, as the hostess, was responsible for distributing the food, and she placed the bone-in roast meat on Surdak's plate and said:
"I heard that the pass over there in the town of Plantos has been broken by an ant tide, how is the situation over there?"
Surdak said as he ate: "Everything is going well, the red ants that entered the occupied area have basically been cleared, only a few scattered red ants have escaped from the roundup, the town of Plantos is completely finished, the pass at the mountain pass has been recaptured, and now the Chester Great Swordsman is leading people to guard over there." ”
Nika asked, somewhat surprised, "Ah, did those ghost-striped red ants rush in?" ”
"This time we went to the outskirts of the town of Plantos, and the number of red ants was estimated to be more than 50,000," Surdak said. ”
Nika couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed, "There are so many ......"
Selena sat down across from Surdak and pinched a piece of whole-wheat bread and placed it on Signa's plate, who protested silently, saying she didn't like it.
"What about those rewards that have been redeemed for merit? On the way back, many people came to me in private to tell me these things. Selena asked.
Surdak asked curiously, "What are they looking for you for?" ”
Selena shrugged her shoulders, a gesture that made her collarbone look beautiful.
"It's just that they want me to keep a certain magic weapon for them for a few more days." Selena said.
Surdak waved his hand and said very decisively: "This kind of thing is not negotiable, whoever has accumulated enough merit points, whoever submits the exchange application first will be whom, there is no such thing as a reservation for anyone, tell them, just say that I decide." ”
"Okay." After Selena finished speaking, she bowed her head and stopped talking.
