"Soul weapons?" Ryan raised an eyebrow, he had heard of this, but he didn't expect this ring to be such a weapon.

Soul destruction is terrible and evil in every way, because there is a saying in the human society of this world that after death, the soul does not return to silence, but returns to the arms of Mother Earth and enters the kingdom of God.

And this weapon can not only destroy the soul, but also absorb the soul as nourishment, which is directly amazing.

"It's a good weapon at the moment, I can't find its origin yet, and I haven't found any other side effects, so it's good if you're going to go to war."

Liman nodded, and then pulled out a metal ring made of Mithril, which perfectly set the ring into the grooves left on the surface.

Seeing that Ryan was a little confused, he opened his mouth and explained, "After my test, as long as you don't contact it directly with your skin, it can't erode your soul.

Of course, it can't be ruled out that it will change after absorbing enough souls, but your soul power is very special, just take it off if you notice that something is wrong. ”

As a spiritual magician, he is the most sensitive to soul power, he has long been aware of the abnormality in Lane's soul, which he blames on the congenital anomaly, but Lane himself understands that it is because of the existence of dragon crystals in his mind.

"Well, it's hard work Master Liman, please make a thousand machine crossbows as soon as possible, the orc invasion and the expedition are imminent, I need all the weapons to enhance my strength, please!" Ryan took the bracelet and said solemnly to Liman.

"Don't worry, I know what to expect." Liman waved his hand impatiently, and began to tinker with it again......

——————

Time flies, and Ryan finally ushered in his second winter in Cana, and the cold wind blew from the grassland, bringing the cold winter to the ancient land of Tistan.

The second season of rice has already been harvested, due to the lack of rain in the second half of the year, the harvest is not as good as the early rice, Lane appropriately lowered the tax a little.

The big war is imminent, he doesn't want the slightest element of instability, this is his foothold, stability is more important than anything else.

With the help of the soldiers, all the scattered people were evacuated into Dorman City, and unlike last time, this time they no longer had to worry about shelter or food.

The government department has already repaired the sturdy houses, prepared enough food and enough wood for heating, and also has elite soldiers and powerful weapons!

Hans stood on the city wall with his sword in hand, and watched the endless stream of people enter the city with large bags and small bags dragging their families and mouths, and his heart was in a trance back to last year, and he was standing here, and the young lord came to Kanna Territory with a team of men and changed everything here.

A year is not a long time, but it has brought such a huge change, giving people the feeling of dreaming.

"This time, we're going to win!" Hans squinted, his hand unconsciously clenching the hilt.

Also seeing this scene was Allen, because the Warcraft Mountain Range was unusually cold, so he led people to withdraw from the cement factory and the steel mill.

He unconsciously clenched his fists, the most feeling in his heart was humiliation, obviously he had changed so much, but the people still had to drag their families and leave their homes, for a knight, this was a great shame!

"One day, I won't be beaten passively anymore, I'll gallop in the orc meadow!" He looked in the direction of the orc kingdom with a determined ...... in his eyes

In the city tower, Ryan and Delai, Levi's, Hevian and others sat together, first of all, they made overall planning and arrangements for this time's tactics, and the people present were all henchmen, and Ryan did not hide it, revealing the crystal bomb and the thousand-machine crossbow that Liman had just delivered.

With these, plus an army of 3,000 men, trebuchets, and strong bows and crossbows...... Ryan and the others are full of confidence in this battle, and the last tragedy will definitely not be repeated!

"By the way, the royal capital's extraordinary strength test is imminent, if we want to participate, we need to organize people to move as soon as possible, otherwise we will miss the time."

After the military arrangements were over, Hevian raised a question before several people.

Transcendent power testing is too expensive, if you want a large-scale organization, even Ryan can't afford it, and the transcendent is a low probability, and thousands of people may not be able to produce a few, and the pay is not proportional to the return.

But this is also necessary, because at the moment the transcendent is a strategic force, and it cannot be without. Just like Archduke Douglas changed the direction of the overall situation on the battlefield with a knight order, which ordinary people can't do.

Although Ryan has never given up recruiting transcendentals, he has only recruited a few wandering knights so far, and it is a drop in the bucket to be in the army.

In the Frontier Legion, there will be at least one transcendent for a hundred people, and there must be a dozen in a battalion, and the first legion under Ryan's command all adds up to less than this number.

"There's no rush on this matter for the time being, Master Liman is already researching the transcendent force detection device, so let's put it on hold for the time being."

Coincidentally, when Ryan thought about this question before, he suddenly remembered that Liman had said that his former mentor had made a third detection device besides fighting spirit and magic, that is, the one that little Amy had used to detect extraordinary power.

So he went to Liman with the intention of what happened, but the other party bluntly said that that thing has no gold content, but all families with a little background have this kind of device.

And the production cost is not high, the main thing is that the use of magic crystals needs to be consumed, which is too expensive, but now that the Kana Collar has achieved mass production, this is naturally no longer a problem, and it can support a wide range of detection.

I'm already working overtime to make it, just wait......

A hundred miles away from Kanna, a group of hungry orcs rushed to the city wall and slaughtered wildly, and Archie, an ancient and declining family territory, was once again frantically plundered by orcs.

In last year's orc invasion, Baron Archie's city was breached, the chief knight was killed in battle, the elite soldiers were all wiped out, and the population and wealth were greatly lost.

Although there were refugees behind to replenish the population, the elite soldiers and high-ranking knights were not cabbages, and they were poorly trained, and they quickly fell under the onslaught of thousands of orcs.

When they saw the crowds of refugees, Ryan and the others were a little shocked, no one expected that the Barony of Archie would fall so quickly, and in the past, it was often the orcs who would bypass them and invade the Cana Territory or the Brese Territory if they couldn't attack.

"Chert is done."

Putting all the refugees in the city and guarding them, Ryan let out a sigh, and was successively attacked by the orcs, like the previous Kana Territory.

Once caught in such a cycle, it will be difficult to recover the situation later, and if Baron Archie does not seek to change, sooner or later the territory will change owners.

"Tell me to prepare for war, the orcs are coming." With a wave of his hand, Ryan was in a somewhat melancholy mood, although he was the one who took advantage of the Celt Territory every time it was breached, and he could take the opportunity to expand the population.

But this is definitely not what he wants to see, the human countries have been passively beaten, and the territory on the border is like the livestock raised by the orcs, and they will raise their butcher knives when the winter is extremely cold.

This feeling made Ryan feel aggrieved, because he was one of them, and he secretly decided in his heart that one day he would become the one who invaded!

——————

Gomorro sat on a tall Koremon, an unknown thigh in one hand and biting, blood dripping down his tattered armor, hideous and terrifying.

"McCaron, tell the sons, don't be slow, all the men will be killed, and the rest will be used as military rations, and the next target will be hurriedly marched."

With a simple sentence, the entire Chelt Territory was plunged into a catastrophe, and thousands of orcs raised their butcher knives in this city, and the flames and blood glowed, and one life was mercilessly harvested.

Gomorro, the orc chieftain who is synonymous with brutality and blood, never leaves a mouth alive in the cities he conquers, and does not take prisoners or surrenderers, and kills everything.

Night had not yet fallen, but the sky above the Chert Territory was already covered in darkness, and the smoke from the burning houses was like a black cloud over the city, which was already almost silent.

With a cruel smile on his face, Gomorro casually hung a head around his waist, the strongest he had ever met, and he wanted to bring his head back as proof of his bravery.

The blood-soaked orc raiding party once again set out on its path of plunder, with a burning city behind them, billowing smoke rising into the sky like an evil black dragon......

Ryan stood on the rampart and looked into the distance, the howling cold wind blowing the hem of his clothes and the billowing smoke reflected in his eyes, making him clench his fists.

"Ray, what do you see?" Alan felt the aura of danger faintly emanating from Ryan's body and couldn't help but ask.

"I've seen a fire engulf a city, and this time the enemy is obviously even more brutal, and if they are allowed to ravage the territory, our year's hard work will be in vain." Ryan's tone was calmer than ever.

"Do you want to ......" Alan was stunned, and a bold idea rose in his heart.

"Only by keeping the enemy out can the loss of the territory be minimized, let's go down and make arrangements!"

"Do as you will!" Alan suddenly became excited, in his opinion, this is the real war, and the brave knight should use his horse and blade to crush the enemy, not passively beaten.

Soon, the scout team was scattered out, and the soldiers of the first and second battalions were also urgently assembled, and the soldiers were confused and didn't know what they were going to do.

Alan stood on a high place, scanning this army that he had trained with his own hands, and a sense of pride rose in his heart, feeling that a ball of qi was about to rush out of his chest, and he roared with full anger:

"Warriors of Cana!

The brutal orcs set fire to the Chert Territory, and now they want to wreak havoc on our homeland, reducing the town we've been building for more than a year to ashes.

Do you want to watch this happen? ”

"Don't!"

"Don't!"

Colin was the first to raise his fist and roar, followed by more and more responders, until they finally joined together, and the roaring cold wind disappeared in front of them.

They all have hearts, and they know very well how they have been doing in the past year, and no one can agree to take away everything they have worked so hard to build!

"Last year, countless of our robes were killed by the butcher's knives of the orcs, and for decades, we have been trampled on by these beasts, and we have accumulated blood debts, which are vivid!

And today, we are going to tell the brutal beasts that the attack and defense have changed shape, and that the warriors of Karna will crush their pride in the wilderness, and from now on we will keep the enemy out of the way, and not let the invaders step in! ”

Alan raised his fist and shouted angrily, his whole body was full of fighting energy, and everyone present felt that an invisible force was injected into his body, which was courage and blood!

Everyone was silent, but the momentum on their bodies gradually became one, and an illusory eagle floated faintly above the military formation, like a silent roar in their hearts.

On the city wall, Delai's pupils shrank, and he said with emotion: "His qi has been entangled with the soldiers, and the military soul has been initially condensed. You're right, he will be a good commander in the future. ”

Originally, when he heard that he was going to take the initiative, Delai was very opposed, because in his opinion, the team had too little field experience to defeat the brutal orcs.

And now, he had to admit that they already had the strength to wrestle with the orcs, which was a military spirit, although it had not really condensed.

It is recorded in the book that every elite army will condense the military soul, and the military soul represents the soldier's belief in victory and the morale of the rainbow, the military soul will not be extinguished, and the battle will not retreat!

And elite armies often need excellent commanders, and Allen has already emerged......

"My lord, the location of the orc army has been found, and there are about a thousand of them." A scout approached Ryan and reported respectfully.

"I'm going to trouble you guys this time, I'll leave the city defense camp behind and guard our retreat!"

Patting Delay on the shoulder, and then at Hans standing with his knife on his shoulder, Lane's expression was relaxed, as if he was only going to do a trivial matter.

"Don't worry, whoever wants to enter the city must first step over my corpse!" Delai placed his fist on his left chest and gave a solemn military salute.

Ryan turned around and went down to the city, put on the "Sky Fire" armor he brought out from the ruins, and put on a bracelet inlaid with rings, and Ryan named it [Soul Eater Ring], which is very apt.

And more importantly, he has to bring thousands of machine crossbows and crystal bombs, which is the hole card he dares to fight in the field!

Heavily armed, he turned over and mounted his wildebeest, and all the soldiers were looking at him, their eyes full of determination.

He pulled out the saber at his waist and pointed to the sky, saying, "This time, I will go with you." ”

"Fight! War! War! ”

Levi, who was the head of the guard, blushed and pulled his neck to let out angry shouts, he felt the hot blood in his body stirring wildly, this is the way of knighthood that he believes in and pursues.

"Let's go!"

With a wave of his hand, Ryan rushed to the battlefield with an imposing team, and their opponent was the orc, known as the first infantry in the continent!

Just as the team left the city and the city gate was about to close, a slender figure rode out of the city on a war horse like a sharp arrow, and went straight to the team that had not gone far......
