Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

"God-Given Earl, according to the latest news, the Black Orc vanguard has already engaged in small-scale battles with the Allied forces. It is expected that at the beginning of next year, the Black Orcs will launch a full-scale attack on the Belfast Kingdom."

Velin accepted the official document and then asked, "How do you plan to organize my subordinates?"

"Your subordinates will serve as your guard and go to the provincial capital of Yason in the Holy Third Dawn Kingdom." The Cardinal replied upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Velin waved to summon a guard and asked him to inform the troops to pack their bags. Then he asked, "Your Excellency, is this the treatment for every legion commander?"

"Yes, God-Given Earl." The Cardinal did not hide anything and replied, "According to regulations, a legion marshal can choose one hundred people as guards, and a corps commander can choose thirty people as guards."

Seeing this, Velin bowed slightly to express his gratitude: "Thank you for the clarification. Please tell Archbishop Saint Albo Tasman that I will report to the Human Allied Forces Headquarters as soon as possible."

"God-Given Earl, I will convey your words to the Archbishop in person." The Cardinal bowed his head and then withdrew from the camp.

Watching the other party leave, Velin stroked his chin, seeming to understand why the official document asked him to bring a hundred soldiers.

"Velin, how long do you think this war will last?" Xemia came behind Velin, put her arms around his neck, rested her head on his shoulder, and asked curiously.

Hearing this, Velin pondered for a moment and said, "Based on my many years of experience, this war will last at least ten years."

"In that case, we left too few books for Klymenia." Xemia said softly.

Hearing this, Velin rolled his eyes and suggested, "Indeed, we left too few. I suggest doubling it. If she can't finish it, we'll teach her a lesson when we return to the Star Praying Territory."

"Doubling it is a bit much, but since you said so, then let's double it."

With a few words, Xemia set the tone.

As for whether her sister can complete it, that is beyond her consideration.

……

On November 13, 9772 of the Radiant Calendar, after several teleports, Velin arrived at the southwestern border province of the Holy Third Dawn Kingdom.

Under the leadership of a Silver Intermediate Temple Knight of the Dawn Church, Velin, Xemia, and Kyle arrived at the large floating city located in the north of Yason City.

After passing through layers of magical light curtains, the three arrived at the center of the floating city, the location of the Human Allied Forces Headquarters.

"Eternal Dawn Knight, please come in." The Silver Intermediate Temple Knight stood at the entrance, made a gesture of invitation, and said.

Velin nodded slightly to express his gratitude, and then walked into the hall.

Arriving in the hall, looking at the white-haired old man in front of him, Velin placed his right hand on his chest and bowed his head, saying, "Velin Ax greets Archbishop Gerard."

Xemia and Kyle followed Velin to salute the old man in front of them to express their respect.

Archbishop Gerard of the Dawn Church, a Legendary High Priest, waved his hand to condense three seats behind the three of them and said with a smile, "Eternal Dawn Knight, please sit down."

Seeing this, Velin thanked him softly and then sat down.

"I won't go into too much detail about the basic information."

As soon as he finished speaking, three white memory light clusters flew into the three people's bodies.

Seeing the memory light cluster appearing in his consciousness, Velin began to interpret the information within.

Since the Dawn Church issued the war order, according to the decision made by the current commander of the Human Allied Forces, Archbishop of the Dawn Church, Continental Legend, known as the Heart of the Earth, Legendary High Dawn Priest, Silas Arcaus Rekroft, the Human Allied Forces were divided into eighteen legions, each legion having between 200,000 and 300,000 troops.

Among them, the Ninth Legion had a total strength of 250,000, with him serving as the Legion Marshal, and three Legion Deputy Marshals under him.

The first Legion Deputy Marshal was named Leonas, a Soul Intent High Holy Knight, the Adjudicator of the Thirty-Third Tribunal of the Inquisition of the Dawn Church, now in charge of the Ninth Legion's logistics and prisoner trials.

The second Legion Deputy Marshal was named Selena Croftsner, a Soul Intent High Dawn Priest, the Bishop of the Dawn Church in the Cyprian Province near the Dawn Province, now in charge of issuing orders and collecting intelligence for the Ninth Legion.

The third Legion Deputy Marshal was named Pragon Muus, a Soul Intent High Knight, the Speaker of the White Mist Province Council, assisting the Legion Marshal in commanding the troops.

In addition, the Ninth Legion has two legends, namely Legendary Low Holy Knight Zesop Elville and Legendary Intermediate Priest Nigales.

As for the army, the Ninth Legion has three corps, two Gryphon Knight regiments, one Wyvern Knight regiment, three Temple Knight regiments, one floating fleet, one mage regiment, two war cities, and more than 50,000 auxiliary soldiers.

Ninth Legion

Ninth Legion

Seeing this, Velin couldn't help but feel envious.

Compared with the Ninth Legion of the Human Allied Forces, the legion organized by the Kingdom of Ilya during the Dwarf War was simply one underground and one above.

Dispelling the distracting thoughts in his heart, Velin continued to check the information of the Ninth Legion.

"Uh--"

Velin raised his head to look at Archbishop Gerard of the Dawn Church and asked softly, "Archbishop Gerard, is the information behind you wrong?"

"Is there any problem?" Archbishop Gerard stroked his beard and asked with a smile.

"All the warriors of the Ninth Legion are native to the Holy Third Dawn Kingdom, and if I, an outsider, become the Legion Marshal..."

"Haha, according to convention, it is indeed impossible for an outsider to command a legion formed by warriors of the Holy Third Dawn Kingdom, but Velin, you are an exception."

Hearing Archbishop Gerard's words, Velin instantly understood the meaning of his words.

It is indeed very reasonable to serve as the marshal of the Ninth Legion, which is entirely composed of warriors from the Holy Third Dawn Kingdom, with the identity of the Eternal Dawn Knight.

"Velin, I'll call you that."

"Archbishop, you can call me whatever you like." Velin replied very obediently.

Looking at Velin's expression, Archbishop Gerard stroked his beard and continued, "The Twenty-Seventh Corps of the Ninth Legion, the Church has positioned it as an assault corps, usually commanded by you, the Legion Marshal, but when necessary, the Headquarters will directly bypass you and take this corps away."

"No problem." Velin said without hesitation, "With my shallow war experience, handing this assault corps over to me to command may be counterproductive. It's better to have the Headquarters dispatch it."

Archbishop Gerard said with a smile upon hearing this, "Velin, I have also heard of your deeds. During the expedition, commanding more than 300,000 troops without chaos is already considered a qualified commander. There is no need to belittle yourself."

"You flatter me, Archbishop Gerard." Velin replied modestly.
