Infinite Journey From Hogwarts

Chapter 497 God of Mercenaries

Facing the surging orc autumn hunting troops, Dawn City didn't have the strength to resist, but it didn't have the belief to resist.

This belief refers to most of the natives of Dawn City, such as the mercenaries who have just arrived. Although they have begun to enjoy the benefits of the mercenary union, one or two months is not enough for them to make up their minds to serve Dawn City.

After all, what benefits can they gain from fighting the orcs?

Killing an orc of the same level is not equivalent to killing a magical life.

Orcs themselves are synonymous with poverty and backwardness, and their corpses have little practical value.

Unless Dawn City is willing to pay a high price in exchange for orc corpses.

But that would directly drag down Dawn City's poor finances, so how to mobilize the enthusiasm of the mercenaries was a very real problem.

On the other hand, the main body of the regular army in Dawn City is now 12,000 Yan and You clans who have inherited the extraordinary profession of [Heroic Messenger], and 15,000 newly recruited young adults.

One of the advantages is that the personal qualities of the soldiers are extremely high. Let alone the Yan and You tribes, the 15,000 young and middle-aged men who can survive in the original lawless city are born to fight. The ratio is also high.

But the shortcomings are also obvious. First of all, the regular army training they have experienced is too short, not to mention the refined cavalry, heavy armor, and archers. They even dare not say that they have fully mastered the city defense training.

And Cedric doesn't want his army seeds to be consumed by the orcs' autumn hunting group. He can fight, but he can only support wars by fighting, and he can't compete with the orcs for consumption.

But the problem is that Ugsh obviously wants to compete with himself for consumption.

Cedric dragged his chin in the main seat and thought for a while, then said, "After the mercenary union issues an assembly order, I will select 7,000 mercenaries to help us resist the orc invasion, and I will hold a dragon blood ceremony for these mercenaries." ceremony."

After hearing Cedric's words, the representative of the mercenary group couldn't sit still, stood up first and said in a voiceless voice, "Is this true?"

Then he realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, because in front of him was not only a city lord, but also a noble saint.

Just when he was at a loss, Cedric waved his hand and motioned him to sit down, "Really, but after accepting the dragon's blood ceremony, you need to do your best in the next autumn hunt. Witness, I don't think anyone wants to try God's punishment."

The representative of the mercenary group smiled sheepishly, "Of course, my lord, I will sign up on behalf of my mercenary group."

The rumored Dragon Blood Ceremony, which can make people infinitely powerful, even invulnerable, is really attractive. For mercenaries who admire strength, this is even more attractive than yellow orange gold coins.

Just like you have gold coins, you may not be able to buy an excellent magic equipment from a mage, but an excellent magic equipment can even save your life many times in the adventure.

"If there is a lot of competition, you can screen." Cedric pointed to Dolan Gold Coin. He handed over the heavy work of identifying people to Dolan, the fat man.

But this fat man is really easy to use. If it wasn't for the surname of the other party's gold coin, Cedric even wanted to promote him as his own god.

"Yes, my lord." Dolan stood up with a proud face. Although the work of presiding over the screening is tiring, the benefits are not small, and it means that he is really favored by this lord. trust.

And being trusted by a living saint, Dolan suddenly felt that all his previous efforts were not in vain.

Of course Cedric understands Dolan's careful thinking, but this is also the reason why he revealed his identity as a saint from the beginning. Uncle Liu Huang may have to recruit counselors in person, but Yuan Shao only needs an official document. come to the advantage.

After checking his material library, the dragon blood ceremony that Cedric wanted to hold was certainly not the kind of dragon vein inheritance ceremony that consumes the vitality of a whole dragon and holds it for one person.

Rather, it is a relatively popular ritual to increase strength, physique, agility, armor, and magic resistance. Of course, it does not rule out that some lucky ones can really inherit the dragon's veins from it.

After all, people's bodies are different.

But even if it wasn't for the Dragon Vein Succession Ceremony, Cedric's efficiency in using dragon blood was not comparable to those of third-rate mages.

Cedric has the main materials in it, the blood of countless types of dragon beasts on the road of the last trial as the main body, and the blood of nine red dragons as the introduction.

The remaining materials can also be scraped together, even if they are less, they can still be bought in Dawn City, a city of trade.

But there is still a problem, that is how to lead the 7000 mercenaries bathed in dragon's blood.

This immediately highlights another major flaw of Dawn City, which is that there is no officer system.

We must know that an excellent officer is the core of the army. In this extraordinary world, one must not only be able to fight, but also be able to cooperate in combat.

Fortunately, at the beginning, they only had to face the ineffective orc marauders in the [Blood Weeping Plain] and the two mountain ranges. Even if there was an army among them, as long as they didn't form a large-scale army, the mercenaries could still handle it by themselves.

However, according to the chaotic nature of mercenaries, there must be someone who can convince the crowd to unify the command, and Cedric also wants to recruit the vast majority of the 7,000 people into his army system after this autumn hunting Among them, this kind of large-scale dragon blood ceremony, even if he can't hold it for the second time in a short period of time.

Only the mercenaries themselves can overwhelm the mercenaries. No matter how powerful outsiders are, they will not be truly loved by the mercenaries.

I need to choose a god-favored person from this group of mercenaries, just like Ugsh chose the orc king among the orcs.

As Cedric made up his mind, a [Great Source] feedback came. Except for Cedric, everyone trembled under the mighty power of the world's will, and they were pressed down on the chairs and bowed their heads, as if they were really meeting the monarch. generally.

An incomplete priesthood slowly condensed, and Cedric grabbed it, and the mighty power of the world's will dissipated instantly.

This is the priesthood of [Mercenary], but the degree of completion is very low now, and it can't even support a weak divine power. It may be able to support the belief of a false god, Cedric thought while holding the priesthood.

He had already expected this priesthood. After all, it was his planned priesthood. When Dawn City was first built, he declared that it was a city of mercenaries.

With the establishment of the mercenary union, the mercenary organization in Dawn City began to affect the entire mercenary world in the Flanes, and Cedric thought about promoting a mercenary god, which was the catalyst for all the results, allowing him to get Feedback from the will of the world.

Although the will of the world has receded, all the natives still dare not look at Cedric. Although they don't understand what happened, they know that their city lord has become stronger.

Cedric smiled warmly, "I just received feedback from the will of the world, and I will become a real god of mercenaries in the future."

"Is this true?" The representative of the mercenary group didn't care that this was his second faux pas today, and the news was even more shocking than the previous ones.

Rogues have rogue gods, mages have mage gods, knights have knight gods...

Almost all professions have their own true gods to protect them, but hard-working mercenaries do not. This also leads to the fact that most mercenaries with ungodly beliefs will die because of their own chaos or evil spirits after an accidental death. Essence, reincarnation into the lower planes, becoming a demon or devil.

This is a result unacceptable to all mortals.

But now everything is turning around, a real mercenary god is about to appear, which means that even if your beliefs are not so pious, as long as you conform to the way of mercenaries, your soul after death will get real destination.

He was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and finally said, "My lord."
