Chapter 1,240 Yuanrong Sword
In the afternoon, after finishing the noodles, a group of satisfied people set out on the way back.
In the early autumn season, the trees on both sides of the road have turned yellow, and leaves are falling and turning with the wind. Some hit the windshield, making a rustling sound. This scene makes people feel quite relaxed.
"After being conferred the title of marshal, the national war is not far away."
Wang Jinhai lay in the seat, his hands behind his head, looking forward, and said faintly: "I still remember that it was also this time last year, when the boss and Lin Che pulled me into the group. I didn't expect that a year would pass so quickly."
"Yes, time flies."
I looked at the scenery outside the window and said: "Maybe because we have lived too fulfillingly and happily this year, time has passed unknowingly."
"..."
Su Xiran pursed her red lips, hesitating to speak, and said after a few seconds: "Then enjoy the time now~~~"
"Hmm~"
I nodded, looked at her for a second, and then looked out the window again.
...
Arrived at the studio, online!
The time is almost up, and there are less than fifteen minutes left before the ceremony of conferring the title.
"Shua——"
The character appeared in the hall of Xingqi City, wearing a majestic battle armor, wearing the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword on his waist, and the Wu Mu cloak fluttering behind him. He appeared in the hall just like that. Not far away, two golden armored guards immediately knelt on one knee and shouted in a deep voice: "Meet the Marshal!"
"No need to be polite."
I raised my hand and ordered them to stand up and immediately summon the Thunder of Breaking Wind, then jumped on the horse and galloped out. At this time, the upper right corner of the interface was flashing continuously, reminding me to attend the ceremony on time. Even the coordinates of the ceremony were marked, in the martial arts field of the imperial capital. I have been to that martial arts field before, and it is very large.
Along the way, wherever I passed, almost all of the NPCs, maids, or guards of the Xia Clan saluted me immediately after seeing me. Obviously, I had no position in the Xia Clan before. The military rank of players was not included in the official establishment of the Xia Clan. At most, I was a guest official of Longyu in Xingqi City. But now it is different. Queen Luo Qingyi personally appointed him as the marshal. This status is already second to none in the Xia Clan, and can even be equal to Lin Xingchu's status.
"Dong Dong Dong——"
Galloping outside the martial arts field, the deafening sound of war drums can be heard outside the white courtyard wall. Moreover, the King's Avenue is full of players and NPCs, who seem to be there to watch the ceremony. I don't understand why these guys are so bored that they don't go to level up but come to watch the ceremony. Is there any experience to be gained by watching the ceremony?
No wonder their level is lagging behind.
After a sigh, the Wind-Breaking Thunder rushed to the back of the martial arts arena. Just below the viewing platform, a group of high-level NPCs and generals of the Xia clan were there. Several guards quickly stepped forward, clasped their fists and said, "Meet the Marshal! The enthronement ceremony is about to begin. Please follow us, Marshal!"
"Oh, um..."
I have never been a marshal, so naturally I don't know what the rules of this enthronement ceremony are. So I put away the Wind-Breaking Thunder and walked along a bluestone avenue with the two of us. When we came to the high place above the viewing platform, we could overlook the entire martial arts arena. I saw that the martial arts arena of Xingqi City was already full of troops. Twenty-four military battle formations were lined up on the martial arts arena, full of the momentum of vertical and horizontal maneuvers. Each formation had about ten thousand people!
Around the martial arts arena, stone sculptures of hundreds of meters in height soar into the sky. Most of these statues are famous generals of the ancient Xia tribe. The last female general is Lin Xingchu, the only famous general of the Xia tribe who has been able to stand in the martial arts arena and is still alive. When I stepped onto the high platform, the square was filled with solemn bells, which was exciting.
Looking forward, there were stone steps floating in the air, leading straight to the altar in the center of the martial arts arena. This stone step is about five meters wide, with nothing underneath. It just rises straight up to the central altar. On both sides of the stone steps, a natural stone sword soars into the sky, crisscrossing, making this place full of killing atmosphere. If you walk forward, it's like walking towards a life of war and drunkenness on the battlefield.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Beside me, a young guard looked awed but smiled slightly: "Marshal, don't be nervous. When the bell rings again, walk along this stone sword path to the central altar. On the altar, Her Majesty the Queen will naturally grant you the Marshal's Seal and the Yuanrong Sword."
"Well, I'm not nervous."
I smiled kindly, and he seemed a little flattered and became a little restrained. He held the hilt of the sword and stood by like an iron guard.
...
Time passed by bit by bit, and soon, the time was up.
"Ding~~Ding~~Ding~~~"
The bell rang, and there was a feeling of morning bells and evening drums. The guard beside him said in a deep voice: "Sir, Her Majesty the Queen is about to take the stage. After she takes the stage, you can walk over."
"Yes!"
Looking down below, under the altar, Luo Qingyi, wearing a long robe of the empress, held a golden sword in her hand. She was graceful and heroic. Behind her were two guards holding the marshal's seal in their hands. They climbed up the stairs and climbed onto the high platform step by step. They stopped every nine steps, and then a bell rang again from the bell tower in the distance. After another nine steps, another bell rang, as if following some ancient ritual.
There was a sea of people around the viewing platform, all of them were players watching the ceremony. At this moment, everyone was very silent and did not make a single sound. The Xia tribe in the "Tianxing" game confirmed that it is our China, so at this time, Everyone seemed to have returned to the distant past and witnessed the ancient rituals of their ancestors with their own eyes.
Not long after, Luo Qingyi came to the altar, stood tall, turned around and looked at me, her posture was proud, and she had the aura of no one else in the world. At this time, she was already an emperor.
"Marshal, that's all." The guard on the side said, "Your Majesty is already waiting for you."
"good!"
I stepped out, and with a "click" sound, my combat boots stepped on the cold stone steps. Suddenly there was a golden ripple, and my heart couldn't help but tremble a little. Then I stepped forward again, and the giant stone swords on both sides "buzzed" "There was a sound, like the roar of soldiers on the battlefield, and they walked towards the center step by step, and all the spectators were looking at me.
Three minutes later, we arrived at the central altar.
When my boots stepped onto the altar floor, Luo Qingyi not far away smiled slightly and asked, "Are you nervous?"
"Kind of." I laughed.
She also smiled: "This is also my first time to host the Grand Marshal Ceremony, so I'm more nervous than you are, but it doesn't matter, it's familiar again, and you are the same."
"Um!"
I nodded, stepped forward, knelt on one knee on the ground, lowered my head, and raised my hands high.
Luo Qingyi gently raised the golden sword in his hand, and said in a very loud voice, piercing the sky: "Ding Muchen, as the lord of the Xia clan and the Xia Emperor Luo Qingyi, I would like to grant you the supreme power, this sword The Yuan Rong Sword symbolizes the supreme military power of our Xia Clan. I hope you will take charge of the Yuan Rong Sword and lead the Xia Clan warriors on the battlefield, so as not to dishonor the majesty of our Xia Clan!"
With a "click" sound, the Yuan Rong sword was gently placed in my hand.
Suddenly, a ringtone rang in my ears——
"Ding!"
System prompt: Congratulations on getting [Yuanrong Sword], command +10, prestige +10, and gain the ability [Command the entire army]. Within a range of 50,000 yards, the attack and defense attributes of the entire army will be increased by 50%, and the critical hit rate will be +5. %, critical hit damage +50%, the upper limit of health increased by 20%, he is blessed by the God of War, and his overall resistance is greatly improved!
…
I was slightly startled. I originally thought that the Marshal's Sword was just a prop, but I didn't expect that wearing it would actually have attribute bonuses? Moreover, it is such a violent attribute bonus for the entire army. The surrounding area is 50,000 yards, which means that the effect can radiate as far as forty or fifty miles away. On the battlefield, it can definitely increase the attribute gains of the national server players in the national war!
"Get up." Luo Qingyi said softly.
I nodded, held Yuan Rong's sword in my palm, stood up slowly, and then with a flash of light, this glass-clear golden sword hung on my waist, while Luo Qingyi took one from the guard. The golden seal ribbon said: "Receive the seal!"
"good!"
After taking the seal ribbon, the golden seal immediately fell into my package. At this point, the ceremony of conferring the title of Marshal was completely over!
It’s a short time, but it’s exciting!
…
"Ding!"
System prompt: Congratulations, because you participated in the ceremony, you will receive 10% of the experience value of this level!
For a moment, the experience bar lit up, which made me feel like I was hallucinating. There were still experience points? It seems that the reason why so many people came is that everyone is not stupid, but I am the stupid one!
"Swish, brush, brush~~~"
Everyone who got the experience was teleported out of the martial arts arena, because players are usually prohibited from entering this place and it is under the direct control of the Xia clan's forest army. However, I, the newly appointed marshal, still stood beside Luo Qingyi, not Be transported.
"Ding Muchen..."
Luo Qingyi's voice was soft and gentle, and she looked at me with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said: "When we were in Julu City, I'm afraid you never thought that one day you would stand here with me and hold such a grand ceremony. Bar?"
"Yes."
I smiled slightly: "The first time we met in Julu City, I walked across the street."
She covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "Yes, it seems like all of a sudden, we have reached where we are today. Well, the next thing is the first thing you do after being appointed as marshal, to form an armored army of yours. Only by having your own army can you be a reliable marshal and deter the other generals. Do you understand?"
"Um!"
I nodded: "How to set it up?"
She pointed at the tens of thousands of imperial troops around the altar and said with a smile: "You can select ten thousand soldiers from the imperial army to join your own marshal's army. In addition, to set up the garrison of this army, I will immediately ask Xingchu Gong to send people. You set up camp, replenish supplies and supplies, etc.”
"good!"
In front of my eyes, a white light passed by, and a large map of the national uniform appeared, asking me to choose the location of this army first.
It’s simple, just choose Bailu City. The strategic location of Bailu City is quite good, much better than Xingqi City, so I chose an open space about fifty miles east of Bailu City. Confirm!
