Mount & Blade: Wind of War

Human thugs, third-level soldiers, have been living in the cracks for a long time, and their dignity and spine have been completely broken. Don't expect such people to fight on the battlefield, at least not before you have gained an absolute advantage.

Soldier skills: Exploitation and flattery. There is a certain probability of increasing the output of the exploited object, but the hatred of the exploited object increases.

There is a certain probability of gaining the recognition of the flattered person, but the contempt of the flattered person for the flatterer increases.

Alien spies, fourth-level soldiers, have been living in the cracks for a long time, and have completely distorted his mind and spirit.

But there is no absolute good and evil in this world, and no one writes their good and evil on their face.

Soldier skill 1: Exploitation and flattery. There is a certain probability of increasing the output of the exploited object, but the hatred of the exploited object increases. There is a certain probability of gaining the recognition of the flattered person, but the contempt of the flattered person for the flatterer increases.

Soldier skill 2: Spy, there is a certain probability of gaining the trust of the flattered person, and the higher the trust, the more likely it is to know the secrets of the flattered person.

This is a typical spy unit. Although its combat power is not high, if it is used well, it is much more effective than pure combat power in many cases.

After Rhodes mixed in with the Rhodok crossbowmen and trained a group of wilderness mountain people, he released them from the Lonely Mountain Castle and mixed them into various surrounding forces. Because these people's families were in the Lonely Mountain Castle, their loyalty could be basically guaranteed.

What really surprised Rhodes was that after a long period of training, Valen was promoted to an elite template, while Moken was not promoted, Janice was not promoted, and the two young leaders of the Dark Armor Cavalry Regiment, Yannick and Remo Mac, were not promoted. Instead, Valen was promoted... This really has some meaning of fate. It does not mean that the more you invest in training, the more you can be promoted. Some people are obviously very good in all aspects, but they just can't be promoted. There is no reason to explain.

This is the first time that someone under Rhodes has been promoted from an ordinary unit to an elite template, but it is Valen, who has a physical disability and his training potential has been greatly reduced.

In this regard, Rhodes can only say that intelligence work trains people.

With one arm broken, he cannot be revived, but after being promoted from an ordinary soldier to an elite template, Valen's attribute improvement will be comparable to that of a hero, but Rhode cannot control the points, but grows in whichever aspect he exercises. Judging from the current situation, Valen's improvement direction is obviously in the two fields of intelligence and agility.

"It doesn't matter. I don't care much about whether we can occupy the City of Sin. Our intelligence organization has not been established for a long time. It's good to be able to transmit intelligence and obtain some key information in time. But next, you still have to take some risks and try to get intelligence about what is happening in the City of Sin and the gathering range of high-quality populations and hand it over to me."

"Yes, sir, we will do our best."

"Well, okay, you go down."

"Lord, I'll take my leave."

After the one-armed Valen left, Rhode walked slowly to the window in the office and watched the black clouds and lightning outside the window. The changes in current affairs in the north have to be considered more.

Although from the perspective of most people, the Silver Frost City coalition should have a better chance of winning this Northern War. On the one hand, it has the advantage of military strength, and on the other hand, behind Silver Frost City, there is the huge figure of the uncrowned king of the North, which is almost an oppression that has been invincible.

However, as his status became higher and higher, and he obtained more and more intelligence, Rhode gradually wavered in this judgment.

Raymond, Caitlin, and Airen failed to catch Wester, and the shadow from the Northern Orc Empire also shrouded Rhode's heart.

This made him subconsciously aware that this Northern War might not end as easily as most people expected, even though his chief knight Fatis was already at the gates of the city.

"Dong Dong Dong..."

The sound of knocking on the door came, pulling Rhode back to his thoughts.

"Come in."

The person who pushed the door in was a young, tall and handsome man, the guard knight Airen. Since this kid moved into the city lord's mansion, he has attracted many girls to be jealous.

It's not that Rhode is not as charming as Aileyon, but Rhode is too powerful, and Cress is watching him closely, and he is surrounded by beautiful elves. Even if the maids in the city lord's mansion are overconfident, they don't think they have a chance. In comparison, the knight Aileyon, who is a down-and-out noble but looks promising, is more worthy of being bet on.

However, Aileyon's very humble but extremely firm refusal broke the hearts of countless young maids.

What they don't know is that one of Aileyon's characteristics is arrogance and his emphasis on noble blood. The reason why he is so humble now is that he has no room for arrogance in front of Rhode and Fatis, so he can only suppress himself.

"My lord, this is Instructor Resarit's training report today."

"Well, leave it there. Aileyon, you don't have to deliver documents like this yourself. Instead of wasting time doing these chores, you might as well work harder to train yourself."

When he said this, Rhode walked over and patted the young man on the shoulder.

Although, in appearance, he seemed to be younger than Aileyen, but at this moment, Rhodes gave Aileyen the feeling of an elder.

"Elaine, a great era is about to come. I hope to join hands with you to create this great era. You have to work harder yourself. There are rules in Gushan Castle. I can't just appreciate it because of it. You, I will hand over the extraordinary inheritance to you.”

Rhodes' words made Alleyn stunned, and it could be said that they spoke to the bottom of his heart.

"grown ups……"

"Do you want to ask, if that's the case, why don't I let you go to the battlefield and make meritorious deeds? Because your potential is stronger than Raymond, Kress, or even Fatis. I am sure of this. I allowed Raymond and Kress to go to the battlefield because their potential for self-exploration has gradually reached its limit. But you are different. Alleyn, yours is far from the limit. I don’t want to meet them again. A great talent fell into my hands on the battlefield."

Inexplicably, Alleyn was convinced that what Rhodes said was true.

Although he almost didn't believe that his potential was higher than that of Fatis Knight, surpassed Raymond and Kress, Alleyne definitely had this confidence, but Fatis, the two sides had fought against each other during sword practice. And more than once, because Alleyn's own foundation was good enough, he could feel how powerful Lord Fatis was, and he was getting stronger at a speed that he could hardly imagine.

Rhodes patted his shoulder and let the young man leave.

Aileen wanted to say something, and he opened his mouth, but in the end he still couldn't say it.

At this moment, his heart felt like it was being tortured. He clearly knew that the sooner he could obtain extraordinary inheritance, the greater his potential would be, but he still could not get Lord Rhodes' recognition.

For an arrogant and aggressive young man like Alleyn, all this is tantamount to torture.

"It's painful, it's uncomfortable. If I don't torture you repeatedly and polish it thoroughly, how can you inherit the power of the fallen knight perfectly? How can you betray the original owner and turn to me?"

Standing in front of the window, watching Alleyn walking in the wind and rain, Rhodes pressed his palms against the silk curtains and whispered like this.

The power of the fallen knight is extremely powerful, but it seems to be burdened with a curse, that is, it is almost certain to "betray the master." However, after the fallen knight betrays the original owner, it is not impossible to be subdued. This depends on whether one's operations are appropriate. .

After thinking and pondering like this, Rhodes slowly closed the curtains and prepared to take a rest.
