Chapter 326: The Forgotten Nokia

It was late at night, and the bonfires in the camp were gradually extinguished.

The continuous rapid march made the soldiers a little tired, so after dinner, most of the soldiers chose to sleep to recover their physical strength, so apart from the soldiers on duty at night, the only one sitting in front of the fire at this time was Luo Dee, Soderol, Ruger, Carter and Nata.

At this time, the team is only one day away from Parling, which means...they can "go home" tomorrow.

For this troop that has always been running around in the kingdom, the concept of "going home" has become somewhat blurred. Today's cavalry includes scouts from border villages, Templar knights, and some from the Duke. The enlisted servants came from all over the Efta territory, but so far they have never felt a sense of belonging to any place—after all, whether it is Parland or Elson City, they seem a little strange to these soldiers , and did not feel "home".

"...So I think that after solving the problem of Palland, the team should stay here for a period of rest. It's not good if the strings are too tight. During this period of time, the border is relatively peaceful. Until next spring, the team will You can get enough rest and adjustments."

Rody fiddled with the bonfire with a branch, and chatting with these comrades who have fought all the way is always relaxing, and the others are also used to this way, and they also express their opinions——

"The rest must be carried out, but a new round of conscription is also urgent. Our troops are simply unable to protect Elson, such a big city, and the second is that the population is not enough. I think this may need to be discussed with the Duke."

Soderol put a skewer of roasted rabbit by the fire, expressing his concern.

"Leave the matter of conscription to you. Before the development of Elson City, the two points of Parling and Elsa Village are the most important. The issue of population is entrusted to me, and I have a solution."

While speaking, Rody handed the ale in his hand to Carter next to him, and asked, "How are the soldiers doing recently?"

Carter can be regarded as the first "veteran" who came out of Nolan Village with Rody, so when faced with Rody's question, he didn't hide or ambiguous at all, and said truthfully: "To be honest, it's not good."

"Be specific."

Roddy was not surprised, he also felt that his team seemed to have entered a "fatigue period" due to the non-stop battle for a whole year.

"Perhaps taking a break is one way, but I think the best way is to find out what everyone wants most." The political commissar has worked a lot, and now Carter speaks with a sense of eloquence. This is a world of difference from the vice-captain who had no opinion back then.

Everyone is changing, even myself... Rody sighed in his heart, and then asked: "What do you think they want?"

"I have talked about similar topics with every soldier. In the final analysis... few people are willing to put their lives on their heads all the time, but we all know what we are doing-so whenever we think of the goal in our hearts, we will There will be no resistance to the battle, but after each battle...what the soldiers need is not just rewards in money or equipment."

Carter shook his head and pointed to himself, "Actually, what we desire most is to feel... proud when we hear others mention our name."

"Glory, pride, pride," he continued, taking a bite of Yu's hard flesh, "Soldiers don't complain about suffering and tiredness, but complain that they have done too much and sacrificed too much, but they didn't listen to the affirmation of the people.”

This is indeed a fact that Rody ignored before. He has always believed that "hiding identity" is always an advantage when facing the enemy-the enemy is in the open, and I am in the dark, so that his team can always take the initiative. , so that the less wins the more, and the weak wins the strong.

But Carter's words made him understand that his team had reached the moment when it was time to get out of the shadows...

After thinking for a moment, Rody made a decision. He then looked at Luge and asked, "What about the soldiers' daily arrangements?"

Luge, who had been sitting silently by the bonfire, was holding his sword in his arms. He heard Roddy calling him. After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "Our training method should be changed. The strength of the soldiers has reached a certain bottleneck. , I feel that the previous training methods are not applicable."

Ruge has changed from a soldier who liked to bully recruits to a cavalry captain with a strong sense of responsibility. Now he has become taciturn - because the more powerful enemies he has seen, the more he knows his own inadequacy and insignificance, so Now Luge is more restrained and low-key, and he no longer has the arrogance and domineering of the past

"The Knight of Wellington should be able to come to help. At this time, he promised before, and in the future...I will find a way."

The two knights "Titus" and "Wellington" represent the highest-end combat power in the current Efta territory, but neither of them has broken through the threshold of advanced level 3, so they are not considered powerful.

And the "strongest cavalry regiment" in Roddy's mind is actually working hard towards the level of the whole regiment advancing to level 45 or above.

In my impression, in the Kingdom of Karen in 596, the strongest cavalry regiment was the rebel army "Steel Sky Cavalry Regiment" that survived countless bloody battles. During the ambush, all 406 knights in the regiment were killed, and at that time, their average level was about advanced level 40.

To reach such a level, it is not enough for Wellington to be a mentor alone. After thinking about the suitable candidate in his mind, Rody has a rough choice.

He raised his head and wanted to ask Nata if she had any ideas, but seeing her appearance, Rody finally chose not to start any more topics.

After briefly talking about the next arrangements and combat preparations, everyone went back to rest. And he himself stayed in front of the bonfire quietly contemplating the future development direction of the team.

"The more you have, the more trouble you have..."

Rody sighed, and then opened the panel to look at the [Status], and was wondering whether to switch the title, but found that the title of [The Last Demon Hunter] had changed.

Ordinary titles have constant attributes, but the title of [The Last Demon Hunter] can increase attributes according to level up. For such a harvest, Roddy was quite pleasantly surprised:

【The Last Demon Hunter】

fl-jet-

"Familiar skill enhancement" talent

Familiar movement speed

Compared with before, this title provides 0 more agility, a little talent bonus and 0 magic pet movement speed. This kind of benefit ratio is quite astonishing. According to its improvement gain ratio, Roddy thinks that this can be called "tailor-made" match" title

Open the [Advanced Talent Column], he has never clicked on the talent of the [Beast Control] department, Rody looked at it casually, the first line is the talent of "enhancement of magic pet skills", and according to the explanation, this talent is not Strengthen all skills of the pet - when the pet has multiple skills, this talent only has a bonus effect on one skill.

And this effect needs to be selected manually, and if you want to change it, you need a cooling time of 1 hour.

Think about it too, if all skills are strengthened by 35%, it will really affect the balance.

Rody glanced at the "tortoise shield" icon on his skill bar. The current skill level is L. Because of the default three-point talent enhancement, its damage reduction effect has been increased from 70% to 2. Cooldown time has been changed from 3 minutes. Reduced to 21 minutes, the effect is very obvious.

However, the snapping turtle's skill can only be used as a one-time "big move" in each battle, and it does not help the overall strength improvement. If there are more skills...

etc.

Roddy suddenly remembered the Nokia that he had neglected for a long time—when he left Erson, Rody just stuffed it in his pocket and took it with him all the way, and he still forgot to see if it was awake...

Thinking of this, he quickly reached out and took out the "Nokia" from his pocket, only to find that this guy was staring at him eagerly with his two small eyes open...

The four big characters "Hungry State" were displayed above Nokia's head, which made Roddy feel a little ashamed... After all, it was his first pet, so it was really unreasonable to be so negligent.

He got up and searched for food in the tent, Roddy broke it into pieces and began to feed the ferocious-looking little guy, and then he noticed that the "infancy" reminder on the other side's head had disappeared - he raised his eyebrows, and quickly opened the panel , in the [pet status bar] finally saw a golden "upgrade" button

Roddy glanced at it, and found that Nokia had 20,000 available experience, which is probably all the experience accumulated since becoming a pet. I have completed quite a few tasks and killed a lot of H6s along the way, so after passing through the "infancy", I have accumulated a sky-high number

Rody immediately clicked the "Upgrade" button, the system notification sound flashed, the armor on Nokia's body changed slightly, and the single-digit attribute value on the panel also increased a little, Rody continued to click the button—three, four Level 5, level 5... until level 9, the word "upgrade" faded away.

At this time, Nokia has completely changed.

Rody originally thought that this "pet" would not change too much due to the rapid increase in level, but he never thought that Nokia's body would swell rapidly under the envelope of a dark purple light, and after reaching the ninth level, it turned into a A giant tortoise with a diameter of more than one and a half meters

The tortoise shell, which originally had a sharp shape, has further changed. The jagged edges are like the teeth of a giant beast, with thorns and protrusions on the surface, thick and thick like the scales of a dragon, making it doubtful whether it has "dragon" blood

However, Rody knew that even if there was such a bloodline, it would probably be diluted to almost nothing. The real "dragon clan", even if it is a juvenile body, is generally above advanced level 40, and basically all Adults can almost break through the level 6 threshold, they are extremely tyrannical, and rarely show up in the human world

Information about giant dragons flashed through his mind, but Rody suddenly thought of a mission to meet dragons, but this thought was fleeting. He was more interested in the skills that Nokia brought with him when he grew up—

Opening the [Pet Status Bar], Rody saw a row of flashing prompts:

The tortoise shield has been upgraded to level 2.

Gain the "Bite Violence" skill.

Gain the "Bite" skill.

Gain the "Giant Strike" skill.
