From Wild Mage to Wizard King
Chapter 330 Promotion, Disabled Veteran
Under the dark night, Roland held Hela's hand and looked at her with surprise.
Although Roland had thought that he would be opposed when he made the war preparedness plan.
But the committee members were determined to die at the time, and Roland gave them a goal, so they just believed it. After gaining the trust of the committee members, no one stood up to oppose Roland.
Therefore, Roland had never met anyone who stood up to oppose him until just now.
He never thought that the first person to stand up and oppose would be Hela.
Roland smiled and said.
"That won't work. We have been preparing for several years. How can we just leave?"
"But... what if we fail?"
Hela pulled Roland's sleeve and said in a low voice with her head down.
"If I fail, I fail. Don't worry. If I fail, you can go to the Tower of Truth. You are a fourth-ring spellcaster. The Tower of Truth will welcome you."
"Besides, I may not fail. At least have more confidence in me. The Lich King couldn't beat me back then. I have plenty of ways to kill Kan'ozu."
"Lying."
Hela grabbed Roland's hand and sleeve and whispered.
Roland scratched his head helplessly and persuaded.
"Why would I lie to you? Think about it, have I lied to you before?"
Hela raised her head and met Roland's gaze, and said with a firm look.
"I lied to you before. It was obviously painful, but you lied to me that it didn't hurt. I'm not a fool!"
"Uh"
Recalling the transfer of Hela's pain some time ago, Roland was also a little embarrassed.
As for the pain, Roland did lie to Hela when he transferred the pain in order to appease Hela when he was at the northern wall. He only transferred a little bit.
At first, Roland thought he could cheat.
As a result, Roland fell asleep when it was raining, and Hela discovered the truth.
Sent! This is a disaster.
Roland scratched his cheek with his right finger and said helplessly.
"Don't worry, this will be true. I won't lie to you. This time, I will definitely win. You see, I have made so many preparations, how could I fail? It's just a legend, believe me."
Hela turned her head away and said with a dissatisfied tone.
"Since you can definitely win, why do you have to prepare so many back-ups? You have even considered my back-ups. The Tower of Truth? Soul School, right? I know you contacted them."
"."
Roland regretted that he had been with Hela since he came back from the control area.
When Hela helped Roland sort out information and handle government affairs before, Hela almost never took the initiative to understand and mention anything that was not related to information and government affairs.
Roland thought Hela was not interested in these things, so as long as Hela didn't take over, she wouldn't know the back-up plans Roland had prepared.
Unexpectedly, Hela actually knew, but when did she investigate and find out?
Was it when I tried to break through the sixth ring?
Forget it, it doesn't matter how Hela found out.
"Hehe, this is also for your own good. With the protection of the Soul School, you won't be bullied at the Tower of Truth."
Roland explained awkwardly.
Hela's hand was even stronger, and her voice was slightly trembling.
"It's obviously possible to fail. If it fails, what about you? Will you die?"
"No."
Roland said affirmatively.
Hela shook her head and said.
"I don't believe it."
She looked at the resentment and oaths wrapped around Roland, loosened her hand holding the sleeve, gently stroked Roland's chest, and said in an affirmative tone.
"They won't let you go, and I know you, Roland. Given your current situation, if he dies in your battle with Kan'ozu, you will die."
"Since you know that, why are you still saying this?"
Roland sighed and said helplessly.
Hela did not answer Roland's question, but changed the subject and spoke.
"Roland, do you hate this world?"
"It's okay."
Roland shrugged and stretched out his hand. The elements were dancing in his hand. Looking at the dancing elements on his palm, Roland said lightly.
Hela lowered her head and said with a vague and imperceptible emotion in her tone.
"Since we met, you have no sense of belonging to this world. I always thought it was because our home was destroyed by the cultists."
"But, over the years, I found that this is not the reason. You feel that you do not belong to this world from the bottom of your heart. You are out of tune with this world. You have always been a bystander, passively watching this world. Except for the Tower of Truth and Ginza, you have hardly intervened in anything."
"Although there were many plans before, in fact, you don't care about all the plans, even meditation and promotion. You are just climbing up habitually."
"You seem to care about your life and death, but in fact, you always feel that it doesn't matter if you die."
"But since you came to Donnar, I found that you have changed. You have become more proactive. You began to actively interfere in Donnar's affairs, actively established a war committee, and worked hard for victory."
"Although you are more tired, I am very happy because you have begun to change. You have a sense of belonging to the War Committee. You have begun to integrate into this world and actively try to change everything."
"Although your eyes have shifted from me to other people, I am still very happy."
"I know that I have no status to persuade you, but but."
"I don't want you to die."
Hela grabbed Roland's hand and raised her head, tears rolling in her eyes.
When Roland built the magic array and Hela was alone on the northern wall, Hela thought about these questions.
But Hela didn't dare to think about it carefully, nor did she dare to think about what the future would be like if Roland died in the battle. She deceived herself and believed that Roland would win the final victory.
However, since she learned that Roland was secretly preparing a back-up plan to evacuate and deliberately avoided her, Hela could no longer escape.
Especially just now, after witnessing the death, Hela finally couldn't control her emotions.
Roland looked at Hela, who was a little resentful in front of him, and didn't know what to say.
He gently brushed Hela's hair behind her ears and comforted her softly.
"Okay, I won't die, really, I won't lie to you."
"Do you have to go?"
Hela looked at Roland and whispered.
Roland patted Hela's shoulder and said gently.
"Yeah."
"You promised to take me around the whole continent, the Temple of the Sun, the Old Lake, the High Altar, the Qingjiang Temple"
"You said we would go together."
Hela grabbed Roland's hand, her tone was a little tearful.
Roland took a step forward and hugged Hela in his arms.
Hela held back her tears and whispered in Roland's ear.
"I don't want you to change, just be the way you were at the beginning, okay, let's leave together."
Listening to Hela's plea, Roland gently stroked Hela's soft black hair and said softly.
"I have been preparing for so long, I can't let everyone down."
"If I leave, there will be a river of blood here, and everything we have seen these days will be completely destroyed by the green tide."
"Hela, do you remember what we said in the East District of Ginza?"
"Don't do good deeds for small things. If you can save one person, it's one person. Just because you can't save everyone, should you just watch like this? This is what you said to persuade me."
Before Roland finished speaking, Hela bit Roland's shoulder and said with a little dissatisfaction.
"You taught me those words before."
Hela bit Roland's shoulder gently to vent her anger, but it didn't hurt Roland. After all, Hela didn't use any force.
Roland gently patted Hela's back and continued,
"Even if I lose, I can save many, many people."
"Besides, I may not lose. If I win, everyone in the War Council can survive."
"So."
"Okay, I get it."
Hela interrupted Roland, hugged Roland tightly, and whispered.
"I knew you wouldn't listen to me. I won't continue to be willful, but..."
"I don't want to go to the Tower of Truth."
Roland raised his eyebrows slightly and said.
"Then where do you want to go?"
"Humph, I won't tell you."
Hela refused to answer, and then she whispered again.
"Don't let go, how long do you want to hold me?"
Hearing Hela's words, Roland also let go of Hela, but just after Roland let go of Hela, some lights and small voices came from not far away.
They stayed here for too long, and the villagers had returned from the square.
Although Roland and Hela did not do anything bad here, Roland still felt a little uncomfortable if they were seen by the villagers.
Therefore, after letting Hela go, Roland seemed not to notice Hela's slightly red cheeks, and pulled her away directly.
When the two returned to the carriage, Hela had adjusted her state at some point.
The two got on the carriage, and then the horses pulled the carriage started to move by themselves.
Although the horses could pull the carriage by themselves, Hela still felt a little embarrassed, so she ran out of the carriage alone and sat outside, pretending to be driving the horses, while Roland stayed in the carriage silently.
No words were spoken that night.
At dawn the next day, Roland and Hela returned to their usual appearance, slowly walking down the stone road, witnessing the beautiful scenery and various forms of life along the way.
As they traveled, the resentment and restraints that entangled Roland became less and less affected by themselves.
On August 1, 1451, Roland stood on a high mountain, with endless elements gathered beside him, looking at the slowly rising sun.
When the first ray of sunlight shone on Roland, he smoothly completed the promotion and quietly became a six-ring spellcaster.
Although this promotion took several months, compared with ordinary breakthroughs and evil breakthroughs, Roland's breakthrough this time was more suitable for Roland now.
Although it took a little longer, there was no hidden danger. Unlike other breakthroughs, it took time to rest and adjust. The breakthrough that came naturally allowed Roland to quickly possess the power of a six-ring spellcaster.
Roland stretched out his right hand, and the endless elements around him began to gather in his hand, and flowed into his body continuously along the palm of his hand.
Absorbing these elements, the magic power in Roland's body began to rise, and his sea of soul was also rapidly expanding.
Behind him, Hela did not pay attention to the slowly rising sun, but kept looking at Roland who had completed his promotion, silently clenching his hands.
Roland has completed his promotion, and is getting closer to fighting Kan'aozu.
Hela closed her eyes, feeling increasingly nervous.
As Roland and Hela travel around, the situation in Donnar will naturally not remain unchanged.
The war between the Union Army and the Green Tide is becoming more and more intense. With the crazy investment of troops from both sides, the front lines of the two sides are constantly expanding, and the entire front line is filled with almost endless fights and battles.
More than a million troops maintained on both sides of the battle line. The Union Army and the Green Tide were strangled together. A large number of Union Army soldiers and green-skinned orcs would die in the war almost every moment.
Relying on constant conscription and military support from the Sinar countries, adventurer groups, and mercenary groups, although the coalition army suffered heavy losses, the number of soldiers piled on the front line not only did not decrease, but continued to increase.
As for the Green Tide, relying on their strong vitality and fecundity, they were naturally not afraid to compete with the United Army in terms of numbers. Green-skin tribes one after another, large tribes, frantically went to the front line under Kan'aozu's order.
As soon as the coalition forces on the front line wiped out one green-skin tribe, Kan'aozu could add two or even more green-skin tribes.
With both sides frantically increasing their troops, the battle line has been completely filled, and the number of each other has reached the limit of the battle line.
After it was difficult to gain advantage in quantity, both parties focused on quality.
Under the command of Kan'aozu, the Greenskin Legion, which had only faced the Donnar coalition during the initial period of the Green Tide, once again appeared on the battlefield.
Groups of green-skinned supernatural beings, led by several green-skinned warlords, formed an extremely powerful green-skinned legion. Under the command of Kan'aozu, they frantically attacked the front lines of the coalition forces.
On the front line of the United Army, extraordinary beings also formed extraordinary legions under the leadership of high-level extraordinary beings to resist and try to counterattack the green-skinned legions.
At the same time, veterans tempered from the War of the Roses also formed extraordinary legions and joined the front line to fight against the green-skinned legions.
On the front line, a large number of green-skinned legions and extraordinary legions were fighting each other, and huge elemental fluctuations swept the entire frontline battlefield.
In addition to the fighting between armies, the conflicts between legends are also intensifying.
Eleanor and Kan'aozu were hostile to each other and wary of each other. Once who stepped off the field first to help, the other would immediately step off the field to stop them.
As the intensity of the frontline war skyrocketed, the two men ended up more and more frequently, and they had more and more conflicts with each other, and the conflicts lasted longer and longer.
Although Eleanor couldn't beat Kan'aozu, under Kan'aozu's acting, the two sides still fought back and forth.
It is precisely because of this that seeing that Eleanor seems to be on a par with Kanaozu, the Sinar countries are providing more and more support to the coalition forces.
In addition to increasing amounts of material assistance, the Sinar countries have also stepped up military support.
In the past, most of their military support to the Union Army was only in terms of weapons and equipment. At most, it was to encourage retired veterans to re-employ and try their luck in the Union Army.
But now, they began to take action in person. Military forces were mobilized one after another, and after long-distance marches, they were thrown into the front line of the battle against the green tide.
Of course, the Sinar countries are still relatively cautious. Although they have mobilized military forces, they are basically ordinary armies composed mainly of ordinary soldiers, and the real elites have not been moved.
After all, the ordinary army is thrown into the meat grinder of the United Army and the Green Tide. If it is gone, it will be gone. At most, it will be better to spend more resources and time to replenish it, but the elite army and extraordinary people are not so easy to replenish.
Of course, the only exception is the retired veterans after the War of Roses. The Silver Empire is still very happy to throw these retired veterans to die in Donnar.
The main reason is that in order to win the War of Roses, the Silver Empire exploded too many troops. If their bodies were intact and their combat power was still intact, the veterans could just regroup to fight against the Green Tide.
However, the Silver Empire does not like those veterans who are disabled, severely damaged in combat, and forced to retire.
Although the Silver Empire has a large number of spellcasters, the cost of medical treatment for these retired veterans is too high. Therefore, rather than treatment, it is better to force them to retire directly.
Although retired veterans do not have to pay the same salary as active-duty soldiers, disabled veterans still have to receive subsidies.
As for these subsidies, even if the Silver Empire has found excuses to cut them off many times, the huge number of retired veterans still adds up to a large number, so they have become a burden on the Silver Empire.
Instead of continuing to spend money to support them, it is better to let them go to Dongnar and die.
Although subsidies must be paid after death, since everyone is dead, you can still find a way to postpone them. After a few more years, you can pretend they don't exist.
Moreover, retired disabled veterans cannot afford it. Some disabled veterans were the breadwinners of their families and lost their income after retiring.
The whole family can only live on subsidies. For them, as long as they find a reason to delay the payment of subsidies for a month or two, and then give them a little hope of survival when they are most desperate, they will go to Dongnar obediently.
Although this method is used to deal with some disabled veterans, some disabled veterans who still have income after retirement or have labor in their families may not succumb so easily.
However, the burden can be reduced as much as possible. If one less veteran receives subsidies, the Silver Empire will save more money. No matter how much can be saved, it is better than nothing.
Therefore, under various coercion and inducement, a large number of retired disabled veterans who are impoverished and even have problems with food after retirement, in order to seek a chance of survival, took their families to Donnar.
