People in the Middle Ages, draw cards to get promoted

Chapter 87
It was getting late, and the moon and stars were scarce.

Lothar took advantage of the confrontation between Flynn and Hannya, and quietly slipped outside the door to breathe.

Although the air outside is not fresh, you can faintly smell the faint smell of animals coming from the stables not far away.

But most people didn't think it was an unpleasant smell, and there were not a few serfs who slept in the barn.

In Lothar's hometown - Argau, once facing a snowstorm, it is a rare privilege to be able to huddle with the livestock to keep warm.

As soon as he went out, he saw Hans squatting in the corner with an embarrassed expression: "My lord, would you believe me if I said I wasn't eavesdropping?"

"I trust you, no need to explain."

Lothar patted him on the shoulder. Hans was an honest man, and he must have been guarding the door because he was worried about his safety.

"Just let the two of them fight, will it be okay?"

"Don't worry, they have a sense of proportion."

Lothar suddenly said: "Hans, in your world, the Teutonic Knights, what should you do if you are attacked by an extraordinary creature like a dragon?"

Hans said without thinking, "Siege crossbows, magic, or powerful paladins should all come in handy."

"And, my lord, our Teutonic Knights also have a dragon knight, even though it's just a land-based Swedish dragon."

Lothar was stunned: "That's right."

He doesn't know anything about it.

When designing the game background, many places were left blank.

For example, the American continent is mentioned incidentally in the background, but the details inside are not filled in at all.

Are the Iberians sweeping all directions and occupying the entire Central and South America, or the Gauls dominating overseas, or as in the history of previous lives, the Anzas dominating North America?

None of this is mentioned.

But for a real world, these are naturally impossible to be vacant.

Copywriting and plot are important to tower defense games, but they can be gradually improved with subsequent updates. Just leave it blank before.

It seems that this part of the "blank space" should be automatically filled in as the game evolves into a world.

"Hey, the first batch of six-star retinues didn't design a giant dragon. Otherwise, they could ride a dragon and sweep the world like the dragon mother in Game of Thrones."

In the giant ship system yesterday, among the high-level retinues, there were quite a few who had the blood of mythical creatures. Although there was no dragon girl, there were many who were comparable to it.

For example, Fringilla, after unlocking the Elite 2 template, can use the tyrant, and the blood tyrant transformed into a terrifying creature no less than a dragon.

It's just that the bar is too high.

To complete Elite II, you need to upgrade the five-star and six-star retinues to the full level first. After being elite, the level will return to zero, and the attributes will remain unchanged; after being upgraded to full level, you can proceed to the second elite.

Four-star and three-star elites only have elite one, and one-star and two-star players reach level [-], which is the full level. They have no possibility of continuing to explore their potential.

"Let's rest early today. Tomorrow we will march, and we may encounter rangers infiltrated by Saracens. Don't forget, even the leader of a group of desert bandits can master a certain amount of extraordinary power. As the most powerful person in the Zoroastrian world, One of the two powerful kings, under Saladin's command, must have an extraordinary existence."

Lothar straightened the folds of the burqa for Hans and patted him on the shoulder.

This is the only talent under him who can be alone.

Although Hans lost a level of intimacy and dropped from admiration to trust as he rose to the star, it was because of the improvement in quality that the value shrunk.

To put it bluntly, the exchange rate has changed. In the past, [-] points of intimacy was worship, but now it is [-] points.

It's not that Hans really had any opinion on Lothar.

His loyalty did not disappoint Lothar's training in the slightest.

"Yes, my lord."

Hans paused slightly, and added: "So, my lord, will you patrol the camp for me tonight?"

Lothar felt guilty for a while.

He coughed lightly, and quickly took out the letter of commission with the private coat of arms of Baldwin IV from his clothes: "It's up to you, after all, you have been promoted by His Majesty to be the commander of the Knights of Jerusalem, this belongs to you responsibility."

Hans was a little surprised: "Commander?"

In his world, the Teutonic Knights had a similar framework, and the commander had a high position of authority, a position he had never dared to imagine in his entire life.

Lothar patted him on the shoulder: "Well, do it well, you deserve it."

Hans held the "Certificate of Appointment" and looked at it for a long time by the moonlight, but there was still an unreal feeling on his face.

"Wait, that's not right."

"Didn't you tell me to rest early?"

When returning to the main hall.

Hannya doesn't seem to have really conflicted with Flynn.

The latter looked at Lothar angrily.

Lothar's heart skipped a beat.

After thinking about it for a while, after thinking about it, are you two acting for me?

If I don't stare, there is no need to fight?

He abruptly changed the subject and said, "Flynn, since this gargoyle ring once belonged to you, then you can teach me how to use it?"

Flynn said unhappily: "It would be good to inject magic power, but once the summoned soldiers die, they have to wait a whole day for the gargoyle ring to recharge."

"This is actually a token of our Tepesh family, just like the heraldry ring you wear on your hand, it is mainly used for stamping."

"You Blood Royal Court is really rich and powerful."

Lothar sighed lightly: "It's a pity."

"what?"

"fine."

It's a pity for Lothar why he didn't design a powerful staff for Fringila, or a full-body armor for Prajna.

Even if the two of them can't be used, they must be very good treasures.

Although Lothar has asked Malles to build a full body armor for Wisdom, this does not mean that the armor is of much use to Wisdom.

It would be too shocking to kill seven in and seven out of the enemy pile purely with flesh and blood.

...

Early the next morning.

In the residence of the Royal Knights.

Lothar tidied up his armor and put on the "Bassanite Helmet" with peacock feathers embedded on the top.

I have to admit that this helmet looks a little ugly from the front, but for Lothar, practicality is more important, and in a sense, the ugliness can be regarded as a deterrent.

Lothar turned over and jumped onto the Arabian war horse specially covered with a pair of scales and horse armor.

Equipped iron cavalry also began to be used after the Franks entered the Levant area, in order to make up for the threat of the Saracens' cavalry to mounts.

However, the heavy horse armor will limit the impact of the cavalry, making the shock cavalry who mainly charge repeatedly become hand-to-hand cavalry who rush into the crowd and have to switch melee weapons to kill.

Therefore, Lothar did not equip the hussars under his command with horse armor.

This kind of cavalry, which is between light cavalry and heavy cavalry, is more appropriate to be called hussars.

Speed ​​is the source of the vitality of the hussars. Lothar has already castrated the combat effectiveness of the hussars because of the problem of being unable to make the hollow lance with the shortest three meters.

If it is equipped with a full set of horse armor and changed to a cavalry, the hussars will completely exploit their weaknesses and avoid their strengths, and there will be no special features at all.

It's better to wait for the day to draw out the armored cavalry barracks of the Eastern Empire or Sasanian, and train special cavalry and archery, and armored cavalry with excellent impact.

He himself rode a horse with scales and horse armor, which was just a way to show his identity. When he actually went to the battlefield, he would definitely change his mount.

Looking back, more than ten hussar guards were following him.

They hold lances that are more than two meters long, and each of them is served by a light sergeant riding a pack horse. When marching, they will remove part of their equipment and distribute the load to the pack horse.

Behind them, there are royal knights and their attendants in an orderly arrangement, wearing dark red and white two-color burqas.

Among them, quite a few people equipped their mounts with cotton armor, wooden armor or leather armor. Some wealthy knights even specially equipped their mounts with a helmet with feathers on the top.

Unlike the new knights who came on a pilgrimage, the knights of the Royal Knights have undergone training aimed at improving organization.

They will not charge indiscriminately and are more uniformly dressed.

Of course, like those colorful knights, they will also engrave their own private coat of arms on their shields and smocks to show their identity.

After that, it was trained by the Lothar formation. Veterans and recruits were mixed with a team of armored sergeants, led by the Varangian guards. They lined up neatly in two teams and followed behind the cavalry.

Compared with those pilgrim crusaders who don't even have a helmet, even the newly recruited sergeants of the Royal Knights have a pair of armor and a pot helmet for the first time.

Lothar took advantage of his position and sold most of the spoils seized from the bandit camp to his own Knights.

Looking at this well-armored and "well-equipped" army.

Lothar raised the armed sword in his hand and ordered: "In the name of the heavenly father, the whole army will march out, and we will meet under the sacred banner of His Majesty the King outside the city."
