Late at night, after leaving the Wizard's Tower, Hawkins summoned his officers non-stop, eager to know how much strength the First Squadron had lost in that short week, and how many backbones remained.

But when all the officers arrived, Hawkins was surprised to find that not only did none of the five squad leaders who remained in the war zone die, but not even a single seriously wounded, which made him very happy. Then he asked about the losses of the members of each squad, and the result was that except for the ninth squad and the third squad, which lost two knights, the other squads were not reduced, which undoubtedly made him more satisfied, after all, Hawkins had imagined the situation after returning before leaving, and the worst was only half of the members of the fourth and eighth squads, and the remaining three squads were all wiped out.

But now it was the entire squadron that had lost only four Vortex Knights, and how this did not overjoyed Hawkins.

The commander of the first squadron let loose and laughed, which reflected a little bit of the vitality of the young people: "Okay, good, it seems that our luck is very good." There were no more enemies on my side, and you all returned safely from the battlefield. Now that I'm back, the 1st Squadron will definitely be able to go to the next level. ”

Morey, a bald man, was full of alcohol, and put his arm around Herman's shoulders and said drunkly: "Boss, it must be true that you are lucky, but our luck is not good. Two battles in a row, if it weren't for my good brother and the Eighth Squad sacrificing their lives to help, I'm afraid you wouldn't have seen me and Plzeň when you came back. Boss, don't you know that the group of people in the second squadron not only didn't help us once, but even wanted to rob Barron of his exploits after the war......"

"Okay, shut up." Plzen punched him hard, signaling Morey not to arch the fire here.

The joy on Hawkins' face faded, and he looked at him: "Why don't you let him say that even if the first squadron is not Rex's descendant, it is not something that anyone can bully." ”

Pilson saw Hawkins' anger and smiled: "It's all over, and we haven't suffered." ”

"Hehe, it's not a loss." Morey sneered, "If Herman hadn't been kind enough to cut off the head in front of Thomas, those three exploits would have been snatched away by Lawrence's dog mongrel." ”

"Looks like a lot of things have happened this week in addition to fighting. Morey, you come, what to say. I'd like to see how the two squadron leaders help their allies! Hawkins had frost in his eyes and a chill in his teeth.

Morey was already unhappy with what the other two squadrons had done, so he deliberately came over to meet the commander without dissipating his vindictive spirit, and poured out all the complaints in his stomach. The rest of the squad leaders, including Herman, had the same mentality, so none of them came out to play the round.

Hawkins was already on fire from the beginning, ordinary knights didn't know what that four-cornered monster was, didn't Thomas and Chandler know it yet? That's the four-horned demon with combat power comparable to the earth knights, these things have no means to make them stop except for completely cutting off their limbs, the powerful horned demons are matched with the giant axe mixed with unknown alloys, even they earth knights don't dare to take this axe head-on, it must be very difficult to deal with Morey and Pilson alone, and then hear that Morey was attacked by a Vault Dweller with a poisoned sword, if Thomas and Chandler don't make a move, Hawkins really doesn't know how to hold on to Pilson alone, don't let the horned demon break through to the samurai phalanx behind.

When he heard Morey say that Herman offered to help, he couldn't help but cast an appreciative look at Herman. And when he learned that Herman had kicked four meters high in front of him, and that the nearly two-ton Horned Demon had snatched his giant axe, his eyes had already begun to be shocked.

(What kind of monster is this guy?) Even if you are cultivating the visceral-level Dou Qi Containment Method, your strength is exaggerated. ）

Although knights are known for their physical strength, there are few people like Herman who have terrifying powers, and even Hawkins is not sure to kick over the two-ton horned demon with one kick.

Later, when Morey said that the five high-level source knights were besieging Herman to snatch the alloy giant axe, Hawkins couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes. With this kind of lineup, he really couldn't think of how Herman could get out, so he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart when he heard that the eighth squad had an arrow to solve a high-level source knight's archer. This kind of person is a miracle soldier if he uses it well, so he said to Herman: "That shooter's name is Moore, right, call him to see me in two days." ”

Herman smiled, "Yes." ”

Hawkins asked again, "What about the axe?" ”

Herman picked at the back of his head and said with a broken head, "I've put it in the camp, but I haven't figured out what to do with it yet." ”

Hawkins nodded: "This axe is doped with a concentrated metal, if you can find an alchemist to help, it will not be a problem to create a lowest-level enchanted weapon." Compared to the contribution value, the material is the most cost-effective. If you don't need to contribute in a hurry, keep it. Fort Edmund has a vault dedicated to storing loot for the Knights, and you can open a vault of your own for 3,000 contribution points every year, and before the magic ring, the Wizards' vault is the safest safe. ”

"Three thousand contribution is worth ......," Herman gasped with a painful face, "My salary is only three thousand a month." ”

Hawkins laughed, then motioned for Morey to continue, and the smile that had just appeared on his face gradually sank.

Especially when Morey said that the fourth squad was hunted by more than thirty masters, but Thomas and Chandler turned a deaf ear, Hawkins's face was already terrifyingly gloomy, and his eyes were full of anger, as if he was about to eat people.

(These two bastards, aren't they really afraid that Morey will die and the battlefield will collapse completely?) Damn, how the hell did Rex explain to them? Hawkins was secretly annoyed, until he heard the wizard tower behind him make a move.

(It turns out that Rex didn't tell them at all, but directly asked Lord Lily to take care of Grace, no wonder they never supported, even if Herman led the team to rush up, they ignored it.) ）

(Okay, good.) I remember this "kindness" to Hawkins. ）

No matter how angry he was in his heart, Hawkins, as a chief, couldn't show it. After listening, he could only say calmly: "Okay, I know." The days ahead are still long, so we'll see. ”

The rest of the people were also united in their hatred of the enemy, and unconsciously united in their hearts.

Hawkins nodded in satisfaction, and then said, "Guys, I've always been a fair person. If there is a mistake, it will be punished, and if there is merit, it will be rewarded. ”

When everyone heard this, their eyes all looked at Herman. If you want to say the credit, it has to be Herman.

I saw Hawkins take out a wooden box from behind him, the box body is exquisitely made, the texture is strange, and it looks very mysterious.

When I opened the wooden box, I saw that the box was divided into four compartments, each of which contained a bead of different colors, and the officers under Hawkins immediately straightened their eyes when they saw these beads.

"I rely on the Pearl of Spiritual Origin, does the boss have such a big blood?"

"Herman, this kid, has made a fortune!"

"Anyway, aren't there four, Herman has one, Morey and Plzeň don't need to mention, but what about another one?"

The officers whispered, and their eyes did not take their eyes off the four beads.

Herman was naturally excited, because what Hawkins took out was an extraordinary item called the Spirit Source Pearl, which could increase the bloodline power of the Source Knight, make the Source Knight's fighting spirit attribute more powerful, and greatly improve the combat effectiveness. For knights who relied on Fighting Qi, even though the Spirit Source Orb was only a third-level transcendent item, it was more attractive to them than other fourth-level transcendent items.

What they didn't know was that as long as they absorbed enough and had a good enough quality of the Spirit Source Pearl, it would be easier for them to condense the power of the Origin after they were promoted to Earth Knight, and the spirit objects they conjured would also have more wonderful uses. Fortunately, the Spiritual Source Bead is only the lowest-level transcendent item containing the power of the Origin, otherwise Hawkins would never have taken it out.

The four Spiritual Source Beads are worth twelve combat merits plus 100,000 contribution points, which is a single one, and few Source Knights have the ability to exchange it. If it weren't for the fact that Hawkins was worried about the heavy casualties of the squadron earlier, and was ready to use these four spiritual source beads to improve the strength of his subordinates, he would have been reluctant to use his savings.

He took out a pale red bead and threw it to Herman, and gave Morey and Pilsen a pale cyan bead and a pale yellow bead respectively, corresponding to the fire, earth, and wind bloodlines of the three of them. Looking at the incomparably envious looks of those officers, Hawkins closed the box, shook it a few times at everyone, and said solemnly: "Although this spiritual source pearl is cherished, it is not enough to reward the bravery of the three Morey. Now I still have a water pearl in my hand, and I'm going to reward it to the next person who performs best. With the exception of the Herman three, each of you has a chance. In my opinion, the best is not necessarily how many battles you have made, how many enemies you have killed, and how many fortresses you have breached. As long as you do your best and be loyal to me, everyone will have a chance to get their hands on this treasure. ”

"Ten thousand deaths, ten thousand deaths!"

The officers shouted in unison, shaking the sky. One by one, these people were gearing up, eyeing the remaining pearl of water in Hawkins' hand.

That's what Hawkins wants, he came to the Ninth Brigade to make meritorious contributions, not to mess around. He wants a division of tigers and wolves, not a herd of sheep. With a faint smile smugly, he said to Herman: "Herman, in just half a month, you have gained many more battle exploits, and with your merits, it is enough to offset the mistakes in Fallen Leaf Castle." Now you are given two options, one is that you return to the position of captain of the eighth squad, and Barron removes the position of acting captain; The second is that you leave the eighth squad, and when the recruits from the base camp arrive, you will rebuild the team with you as the core, what do you think? ”

What do you think?

Herman couldn't help but look at Barron.

As long as he leaves the eighth squad, Barron will definitely be able to move up the ranks. It's just that the eighth squad is one of the few squads in the team composed entirely of source knights, and the captain of the eighth squad has a very different meaning from other squad leaders.
