Chapter 2: The Battle Situation (1)
Seeing that the essentia hanging above it could not be fused for a while, Greinte immediately prepared to leave:
"What time is it outside?"
"Your Highness, it's 11 a.m. the next day you come in."
It's been more than a day...... He nodded and said:
"I still have something to deal with, and the 'Balancer' can't give it to you for the time being." Because if the essentia is unstable, he will not be able to invoke the power of the "Duke of Entropy" and thus strip the extraordinary characteristics of the "Equalizer" of the "Servant of Madness".
Trensost bowed slightly, and replied respectfully:
"Yes, your will is my will......
But be sure to take the Sword of Judgment with you, it will stand at your side for the time being. ”
Really talking......
Gleilynt nodded silently, not speaking, waiting for him to state the sword's effects and negative effects.
"Its essence is the extraordinary characteristic corresponding to the 'Inquisitor' pathway sequence five 'Knights of Punishment'. Knights have eight virtues (Note 1), and those who disobey will be punished, and those who fight for them will be helped by it.
This is a ceremonial sword that I have acquired after attaining the divine position, and under the influence of my years of 'judge' aura, it has a binding effect on all intelligent beings below the true god level, but the higher the person, the smaller the constraint. Normally, in the middle and low sequences, it can have a full effect:
Establish a 'trial target' that reduces the opponent's extraordinary abilities by 30% if they do not violate the knightly virtues; If the opponent violates the knight's virtues, their extraordinary abilities are reduced by 50%, and all attacks of the opposing faction are increased by 50%.
Its area of effect is 200 meters around the blade.
The negative effect of this is that the wielder is randomly bound by a knightly virtue every day, and the violator will be immediately deprived of two or four extraordinary abilities of himself, which cannot be restored within 24 hours, and will not be deprived multiple times in a day.
For the existence of the Sage Person, it is only 80% of the original effect, and for the existence of the Angelic Person, it is reduced to 20% of the original effect. ”
A very powerful magical item...... Glerint nodded secretly, quite satisfied.
This is a super buff to your faction's aura and weakens the enemy...... Because in the mysterious world, there are basically no guys who fully abide by the virtues of knighthood.
Of course, its negative effects are quite troublesome, especially for extraordinary people with fewer extraordinary abilities and better quality. For example, your next sequence is "Corrupt Baron", and your core ability is a "twist", once it is deprived...... And the probability of being deprived is not small.
As for the idea of "keeping that virtue and not violating it", it is not easy to stick to it in a more difficult battle.
……
Consciousness returned to the physical body, and Glerint couldn't help but raise his hands and look at it, as if in a dream for a while.
Reflexively jumping down from the strange stone in the shape of a pine tower, Glerint drew the ceremonial rapier that was stuck in it, and at the same time, he was bound by a knightly virtue - humility.
"Whew...... Fine, just be careful not to use arrogant statements and not to act arrogantly. ”
Again, this kind of restraint is discriminate, restricting only your actions, not what your inner thoughts are.

After a slight adjustment, Gleilint flipped his right hand, and the bracelet on his wrist had a gemstone shimmering slightly...... Without a sound, his figure began to fade and penetrate the spirit realm.
……
In the city of Gawana, after Gleilint questioned the soldiers stationed here to relay information, he learned that the two sides had been fighting since five o'clock in the afternoon the day before yesterday, that is, the day he chased the enemy soldiers out. But it was getting dark that day, so the two sides only had a small tentative confrontation, and no large-scale fighting broke out.
But yesterday was different, yesterday Isla attacked with the advantage of a "Level 1" seal and the equipment advantage of a regular soldier!
Then, at the cost of more than 300 casualties, the enemy's main force was inflicted heavy losses - more than 400 enemy soldiers were killed or seriously wounded directly, in addition to more than 200 enemy wounded soldiers captured.
As for yesterday, after the main force of the enemy lost two-thirds...... It was a choice to flee directly to avoid being completely destroyed.
Today, there is no latest information, presumably Isla has not caught up with the enemy's remnants.
After asking Isla and the others about their latest location, Glerint found an alley with no one in place, and his figure faded again...... Continuously launching demigod-level teleportation is indeed a lot of consumption for Gleilint, but fortunately, the distance of teleportation is not far after all, so it will not affect his combat effectiveness.
……
From the rear of the army, Gleilynt showed his documents as he walked along the way, checking the slogans...... It took several minutes to get to the side of Major General Isla and Marcus and the others.
The army is still advancing.
Glerint took the reins from Massimo, and after thanking him, he rolled over and clamped his calf slightly around the horse's belly, allowing it to move slowly.
"Gleilint? How's your situation there? ”
Many people noticed that he had returned, but only Marcus and Isla drove over with Joan and Isla with Alfred...... It was Isla, who still had the same smiling expression on his face, and seemed to have no problem with his delayed return - on the one hand, Admiral Basel had taken some care of Glelint, and on the other hand, even as a major general, Isla did not want to offend a viscount.
In terms of status, he is just a baron, and this is because he fought to the death several times and achieved outstanding achievements, so he was lucky enough to get a hereditary barony.
……
Gleilynt gave a military salute and said sincerely:
"There were three enemy soldiers who escaped, and they were very cunning. The first two were fine, but by the time I went to chase the last man, he had already run too far away, plus it was getting dark...... So I almost lost it, and chased him for nearly two hundred miles before I caught him.
In addition, I was very tired last night and rested for the night, so I came back a day late...... Gleilynt is at the disposal of His Excellency the Major General......"
Isla waved her hand and said indifferently:
"It's okay, you tracked two hundred miles overnight the night before, and you really should have rested yesterday...... Well, I think your actions are reasonable and not culpable!
Well, let Alfred tell you about the battle on our side first, I'll go to the front. ”
It's like caring for subordinates...... It's not like asking for sin!
Seeing Isla drive his horse forward and leave a long way, Joan preemptively opened her mouth to him:
"You're not in any danger, are you?"
Glerint shook his head, and was about to speak, but saw Joan take out a strap, and said happily:
"By the way, His Excellency the Major General said that the day before yesterday we were on a team mission, so the loot belongs to the two of us...... That person is a Sequence Eight 'Provocateur', and he also has a magical item that can hide in the shadows...... I heard you say that it is a 'hermit' corresponding to sequence seven.
Well...... His Excellency the Major General thought that I was in need of the remnants of the 'provocateurs', so he gave them to me...... He said if you don't think it's fair, you can give me some more gold pounds. ”
Gleilynt took the strap with great interest, and shook his head with a smile:
"It's a very reasonable distribution and I fully accept it. If you hadn't stopped him at a critical time, our mission would not have been so perfect. ”
