Chapter 112: The Lion King
It takes about a day and a half to two days to get from Fort Hearth to Wildfire City in Valan Bay.
To be on the safe side, based on the cost of three days, this means that Ronan will now be able to rest here in Fort for about two days.
During this time, he accompanied Elena to the blacksmith shop in Hearthcastle to buy a new set of equipment, a protective belt full of ten daggers.
The awakening of the Lion King's blood has also improved Elena's physical fitness.
Although not yet comparable to the knights, they have surpassed the strong adult males.
After Ronan's simple training during this time, she basically mastered the initial skills of combat.
If it is paired with the summoned flame sword, even a second-order knight at close range will not be able to escape death.
The only problem is that she uses abilities and needs to pick up weapons in her hands in advance.
After the flame sword disappears, as a weapon to carry it, it has basically been scrapped, and the duration is related to the material of the weapon.
Strictly speaking, Elena's abilities are of the enchantment type.
Able to apply properties such as scorching, cutting, and flame sword energy to the weapon in your hand.
It's just that the ability to awaken is too strong to control for a while.
This will lead to cases where the enchanted flame far exceeds the length of the weapon, and it will eventually destroy the weapon.
If you want her to control her ability, it is not an overnight thing, and she has to take a few more handfuls in a short period of time.
Convenient to use and throw away.
In addition to learning about the situation in Hor Castle for the past two days, Ronan also found a tavern where the Awakened gathered.
There, I met a lot of Heroic Blood Awakeners who were attracted by the war.
Most of them were civilians before, and after successfully awakening due to various accidents, they were unwilling to continue their ordinary lives.
Attracted by the recruitment propaganda of the northern provinces, in pursuit of wealth, fame and status.
I set off from my hometown and traveled thousands of miles to get here.
It's just that the awakened are also hierarchical.
Among them, the powerful ones are knights themselves, and they are assisted by family forces behind them, and they can form mercenary groups on their own, and even influence the situation of small-scale battles.
At the next level, there are ordinary awakened people with great abilities, who are often enthusiastically recruited by other mercenary groups and armies.
As for those who are still in the tavern, most of them have awakened abilities that are difficult to play, but they are unwilling to become ordinary soldiers, and they stay here waiting for opportunities.
"You want beer, give it." Ronan held a large glass of beer in his hand and handed it to an old man in the tavern.
"It's great, it's still polite for newcomers from outside."
The old man took a big sip and blushed as he motioned for them to sit down in front of him.
Once Ronan and Elena were seated, he hiccuped and began to ramble on and on.
"You've wanted to ask about the Awakened, right? I tell you, I've been in this tavern since before the war broke out, and I've seen too many of the Awoken of the Mercenary Regiment tell about their exploits and other rumors. ”
"The most popular in the army today are the Awakened of the Blood of the Sage, who have the ability to engage and repair. Able to reassemble broken swords back together, or quickly assemble large ordnance to put many old and rusty bed crossbows, trebuchets, etc. into operation. ”
The old man picked up the glass again and moistened his throat.
"The second is the awakened of the Lion King's blood, they often wield great destructive power, and the leader of the Burning Blood Legion that is now raging on the battlefield is the best among them."
"The Flame Lion Knight Salo is a third-order knight himself, and with a wave of his hand, he can cause a huge explosion of flames, and with the ignited blood of countless enemies, he has achieved his invincible prestige on the battlefield."
"Not to mention that he is also the third son of Duke Fury, and his status is noble."
The old man's words were filled with strong envy and reverence.
Hearing that sensitive salutation, Elena's pupils shrank and she stared at the old man tightly, "Why did the son of Duke Fury Lion appear on the battlefield of the kingdom?" ”
"This still needs to be asked, of course, to support the current emperor, and the relationship between the duke and the emperor is not simple."
The old man said matter-of-factly, but when he asked him what his relationship was, he began to be vague and couldn't understand.
"In addition to this, the Awakened of the Pioneer Blood are good at reconnaissance and are said to be able to enhance their eyesight and sense enemy locations and traps. The Awoken of the Golden Blood are able to recognize lies, make contracts, and more. ”
Seeing Ronan hand over another glass of beer, the old man happily continued to explain.
"As for the most honorable royal blood awakeners, they have the power of magical elements, they can manipulate the wind, harness lightning, and some can even judge the life and death of others with a single word!"
Although they are all rough descriptions, they lack detail.
But it was also enough for Ronan and Elena to have a general understanding of the awakened today.
The lack of a description of the blood of the elves is due to the fact that the bloodline has not been passed down to the public.
Even most of the civilians of the empire have long forgotten that there is a special race of elves in this country.
After leaving the old man's side and sitting down on an empty seat, Elena was very excited.
"Salo, the Lion Knight, the son of the Duke of the Lion?" Her eyes were full of excitement, "It won't be long before my name will be in people's ears!" ”
"Then trouble Miss Elena to recruit the members of our mercenary group before she becomes famous."
Ronan pulled out a registration form and handed it to her, "Come on, I'm sure you can do it." ”
Elena's expression, which was originally ambitious, froze suddenly, and gritted her teeth to pick up the document he handed over.
Looking at the conspicuous cat's head sign above, she glared at him angrily.
"Can't you just change the logo, you have to put it on it and lose face."
"No way, I've already done my job of ascending the throne with Robson, the commander of the enlistment camp, and now this sign represents us, and we can't change it."
Ronan shrugged his shoulders and replied nonchalantly, "Didn't you say it was a lion?" What is there to be ashamed of. ”
"I'm just talking, other people's eyes are not blind, where can't they see that this is a cat!"
"Oh, and if the Knight of the Flame Lion or the Duke of the Angry Lion pointed at it and said it was a lion, do you think anyone would refute it?" Ronan said with a smile.
Elena was stunned, and for a moment she didn't understand how the two could point to the cat and say that it was a lion.
However, when she wanted to object, she suddenly fell silent.
"Looks like you should get it." Ronan took out a quill and wrote their names on the names of the mercenary groups that were still vacant.
"The Lion King"
Thank you for the reward from the alliance leader of the breeze boss! Tomorrow will be added.
