What is Arcane?
——"Arcane Codex"
At the Sixth Brigade’s headquarters, the soldiers looked at the sophisticated equipment and still couldn’t believe that it was for them.
A magic crossbow equipped with explosive crystals, a rune crossbow bed, armor mixed with exotic gold, and various potions that increase strength or heal injuries...
As the chief logistics officer, Zi Xi would of course give the good things to his own people. After all, these were paid for by the various forces of the Holy Army, so he should not refuse them.
The atrium is a place where background and bloodline are important. These are the things they can bring. Equipped with these things, it is not a problem for Black Iron to defeat Silver.
What's the point of being able to fight? It can't break the heavy armor mixed with strange gold. It can be killed with a flaming crossbow arrow.
"The brigade commander is so great. He even seduced the logistics manager for us. I wonder how old that woman is now."
Hans had served in the legion under the Parliament and had done mercenary missions after leaving the army. He had never used such good things. These things could only be equipped by the elite of the Parliament.
While he was adjusting his new armor, he was worried about Xia Lan who had not returned for several days.
"I heard that woman has a big belly and is a big fat woman. I don't know if Boss Xia Lan can handle it."
Like Hans, Weissman's face was filled with worry. He was a ranger from the Kingdom of Orber and came here in order to make a name for himself in the holy war on Zilaner Island.
He also dreamed of traveling around the world with a sword, but he was blocked by a boat ticket when he went out. In order to become famous, he sold his body.
This was a young and handsome guy. At first, he was not convinced by Xia Lan, who was a few years younger than him. He was just blinded by the big promises he made.
But after following Xia Lan, he found that his vision was too narrow. They were both selling their bodies and facing a "mountain", but all he thought about was getting a boat ticket. Touching the equipment, he was completely convinced.
Frederick next to him did not say anything. After the Sixth Brigade finished changing their equipment, he ordered the camp gate to be opened.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The orderly footsteps accompanied by the sound of armor plates rubbing against each other entered the camp. The muffled sound produced by the movement of the heavy armor made the entire camp completely quiet.
There were only fifty people coming in, but they were like fifty mountains. The Storm Army flag stood between the iron peaks, and the nearly tons of heavy armor on each person made the ground shake slightly.
All members of the Storm Knights wear blue-patterned heavy armor. This is also Xia Lan's plan for this knight order, the Heavy Armor Knights.
Those who cannot adapt to this model can only leave the first knight order of Faox, and Faox cannot have only one knight order.
"What is a knight?"
Regimental Commander He Li strode forward, glanced at the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Brigade who were watching the excitement, and asked loudly.
"Wind! Wind! Wind!"
This order of knights had strangled monsters and caused rivers of blood when they traveled eastward to open up a new shipping route. Although they had added new members, the evil spirit remained.
However, the Sixth Brigade was able to survive on the chaotic Zilaner Island and join the Holy Army to fight against the cult. They are no pushovers. They are a mob, but a mob that lives on the edge of a knife.
The core group composed of rangers, mercenaries, hunters, etc. has seen as much blood as the Storm Knights.
"gather!"
Frederick's training over the past few days has paid off. Several regimental commanders fought and kicked, and soon the Sixth Brigade had a basic formation.
Neither group was willing to submit to the other, and the Sixth Brigade responded with a battle cry to the Storm Knights who tried to intimidate them.
However, he was soon stopped by Frederick. After arranging the Storm Knights into the new base, Frederick went to the logistics department.
Inside the castle, Xia Lan was lying on Zi Xi's legs wrapped in armor, taking a nap. In the quiet room, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"I have to go now."
Zi Xi did not stop him. He adjusted his armor and said, "Be careful on the road."
After opening the door, Xia Lan found that Frederick was waiting for him. He turned around and tapped his wife's nose, and then the two left.
"How many troops can you lead?"
On the way back to the barracks, Xia Lan asked Frederick.
"The current estimate is three hundred thousand." Frederick thought for a moment and replied.
Xia Lan showed an inexplicable smile on her face, turned her head to look at Frederick and said:
"You're so confident. I remember you only led a little over 3,000 cannon fodder during the Second Blackwater Campaign."
"But before I came here, I was a farmer in the Kingdom of Tiran."
Xia Lan did not refute. Frederick was indeed confident that he could bring back a group of cannon fodders who were left behind to attract firepower to the Kingdom of Tilan and lead them to the underground world based in Hailong City.
"As for the untrained refugees, they don't need to be combat-ready. All they need to do is not act like frightened chickens when facing the cultists."
Facing Xia Lan's question, Frederick hesitated for a moment and said, "Thirty thousand is the limit."
"That's enough. You can manage it in batches, three plus three plus three... keep adding, and you can reach one million."
"ah?"
The towns on the southwest coast have been relocated by Faox, and the next step is to advance inland, but there are still scattered cultists active there. For safety reasons, Xia Lan decided to let the Storm Knights act together with the main force.
Now the main forces of the Abyss and the cult are in the southeast of Zilan Island, and the front line is also there. The western and southwestern regions were once ravaged by Tone Sudin, but there are still many people left.
Xia Lan used his connections to arrange himself to the rear not because he didn't want to fight, but because many people were waiting for him to save them.
After a few days of rest, the Second Legion joined forces with the Royal Army to attack from all sides, forming a large net to strangle the cult on Zilaner Island.
Xia Lan followed them slowly. In addition to ensuring logistics, she also had to resettle the remaining population after the cult's destruction.
Bohrawis,
At the mouth of the Emerald River, a steady stream of refugees from the north were transported here, and a new city was being built under the leadership of Melvin.
These homeless people are free labor as long as they provide food, but Xia Lan is not so cruel. In order to spur them to work hard, she created a housing distribution system.
If you work hard every day, you will get housing points. After the new city is built, you can use the housing points to exchange for a new house. The more housing points you have, the bigger the house.
People with a special skill don’t have to work so hard. They can go directly to Dawn City to get a new house.
This is the reality. Only by taking advantage of the situation can you avoid being exploited. In the future, when the class structure in Faox becomes rigid, you may not be able to live in your own house even if you work hard.
Now is a period of great development for Faox. These people are standing at the forefront, enjoying the dividends of development, and their happiness index is absolutely full.
