Chapter 780 First Marshal

"Please wait a moment, the awarding process is in progress..."

 The waiting time was much longer than Lu Yao expected.

 Idle is also idle, he began to take stock of what he had gained this time.

This battle was long and difficult. Lu Yao kept going all the way and picked up a total of 810 soldier cards, including 1 brigadier general, 1 colonel, 1 major, 9 lieutenants, and the rest were all first, second, and third class soldiers.

 Looking at these trophies, he was secretly frightened.

Xingtian is truly a one-man army this time, a regular army of the Spirit Tribe.

However, Lu Yao also took a lot of advantage.

Let’s not mention Xingtian’s characteristic of being able to fight without dying—and that it should not have appeared in this actual combat exercise. The enemy mainly focused on maintaining their positions, and their initiative was tied up.

 Furthermore, the enemy's lineup is strong enough, but lacks a normal commander.

If the opponent's commander is another Lu Yao, then you will lose. The other side only needs to adjust their tactics and use their main force to behead their own commander, and the battle will be over quickly.

 According to the existing setting of "Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy", in this trial, I mainly have to rely on the 101 soldier spirits from before to fight against the enemy's 800 soldier spirits.

The enemy has at least a dozen [Psychic Guards], a brigadier general, and two school-level officers stationed there... Under normal circumstances, there is no need to fight.

This time it was also thanks to Xing Tian's Explosive Seed that we narrowly won.

 It’s really not easy.

Lu Yao looked at the soldier card in his hand.

 This is Brigadier General Malik's plate. It is white in color and has his military rank and name engraved on it.

 Being able to win this one is a great enhancement to my combat reserves!

Lu Yao envisioned that Malik and two school-level soldiers would lead the expedition. Relying on the strategic strike capabilities of the soldiers, the strength and destructive power of this force would be far stronger than Xingtian, who had a simpler fighting method.

 Just getting this unit is already worth the trip.

 Lu Yao found that the soldier card in his hand could be used at this time, so he summoned it.

Many white filaments stretch out from the soldier card, condensing Malik's figure.

It still looks the same as before, with a white armor covering its whole body that looks like stone and bone. From a distance, it looks like a classical warrior, but with a cross on its face, it has the temperament of a future warrior.

 Malik stood quietly with an oval weapon box on his back.

Lu Yao touched the armor on its body, and his fingers could feel a cold, hard and delicate feeling. It was not bone or stone, but more like a combination of ceramics and metal. The surface reflected Lu Yao's current thick-bearded macho look. Face.

 He tapped again with his fingers.

Dang Dang Dang.

 The sound is nice.

 If it sounds good, it means it’s good.

The more Lu Yao looked at him, the more he liked this brigadier general.

Malik’s data panel has no secrets anymore.

 …

 【Bingling LV199】Brigadier General Malik

  HP: 336 million/336 million

 Mana: 1/1

  Damage: 16322

 Defense: 6660

 Speed: 181

  【Undead】

  【Bingling】

  【Threat determination】

  【Form switching LV10】

 【Psychic bombing LV6 (12000/12000)】

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

Having the rank of general, he can recruit, command and train soldiers below the general level to improve the combat effectiveness and experience of the soldiers, and can build legion organizations at all levels.

  【Alien Weapon Box】

　　【Malik's exclusive ability】Separate part of his body to make a weapon box. He can use the weapon box to switch to different weapon forms and carry out targeted attacks on the enemy.

“Double Knife LV2”: Dual Knife form, speed +50, and can operate the dual knife attack from a distance.

“Polar LV2”: The pole weapon form will have [Armor Breaking] and [Bleeding] characteristics.

“Guns LV9”: Gun form, damage +2657, speed -55, obtains [Range LV10], [Knockback] and [Deadly Sniper] characteristics.

“Shield LV2”: Shield form, speed -100. When using the shield to defend against damage, there is a certain probability of triggering [Absolute Saving Throw], and the damage caused by the enemy can be used to accumulate the spiritual energy of [Psychic Bombing].

“Falcon LV7”: Change into the form of a falcon and fly independently, and obtain [Eagle Vision Shared LV10], [Breaking Boundary] and [Secret of Camouflage LV10].

 …

Lu Yao carefully read Malik’s versatile abilities.

 Among them, the blunderbuss form has amazing effects.

 …

 【Deadly Sniper】: After aiming and locking onto the enemy for a long time, there is a certain probability of seriously injuring the enemy and causing him to fall into a "weak" state. There is also a very small probability of causing "instant death".

 …

Lu Yaoxin said that it was fortunate that it was not given time to continue firing.

　　My hard work and fierce fighting are not in vain.

  This is a general who is both civil and military!

 As a brigadier general, Malik is not a one-on-one warrior, but a general who commands the army in combat.

 It has its own soldier training skills, which can train and improve soldier spirits, as well as the [Falcon] for reconnaissance. In terms of offense, it is more suitable to be a long-range sniper, using [gun] to kill at fixed points.

Of course, Malick’s panels are amazing enough.

Looking at the data alone, except for the fact that it has no advantage in speed, it suppresses Xingtian in other aspects.

 This shows the strength of the Eldar in the past.

  The Eldar can create such feathered warrior spirits. No wonder they can directly arrest the guilty feathered warriors and throw them into **** for reform through labor.

Lu Yao suddenly thought that gathering spirits like Baloye, epitaph spirits like Shiliu Lang, and the spirit spirit An could all communicate, so there was no reason why soldier spirits couldn't communicate.

 “You can hear me, right?”

A voice came from Malik's cross-shaped face: "Yes, General."

This title sounds good.

“Malik, are you the ultimate gatekeeper of the whole [Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy] thing?” “Yes, General, now, but not in the past.”

Malik said: "[Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy] used to have a formally awarded general as the final assessor. But since the loss of contact with the "Ling Gong", only the soldiers and the workers who maintain the trial site are left here. Ling, no adults from the Ling clan showed up anymore. "

 “Are there no Shilings here?”

“No, general, Shiling is forbidden to set foot in the army. The army can only be commanded by marshals and generals, and can mobilize the regular army here with the authorization of Lord Linggong. Otherwise, it is forbidden to dispatch at will. "

 Lu Yao suddenly realized.

 This is understandable.

 The use of military force needs to be done with great caution.

Lu Yao asked it again: "Are there only two levels of trials here?"

"General, the [Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy] trial has a total of 13 levels, including the five stages of soldier, sergeant, lieutenant, colonel, and finally general. However, those who are good at it for the first time can also jump directly to the next stage. Like you, you can achieve perfection in two stages directly. That completes the process and there is only one record in history that is higher than yours.”

"Who is that?"

“He is the original trialer and tester, His Majesty the [Spiritual King]. His Majesty the [Spiritual King] once completed the entire process in just one time... This is what is recorded here.”

 O Spiritual King, it’s okay.

Lu Yao made another detailed inquiry, and then he found out.

The difficulty of the previous assessment was not bad. In the past, many people jumped from rank to lieutenant or even to school after participating in actual combat exercises for the first time, including brigadier generals.

  But the difficulty of the final test is another matter entirely.

 This is about the awarding of titles, which is completely different from the previous military capability ratings.

“The awarding of a rank is a formal recognition of military rank for the tester, and he will hold a long-term effective military rank. Unless exempted by the process of Lord Linggong, he will always enjoy the corresponding military rank. The higher the military rank, the higher the authority and can take over and command the army during war. "

“Therefore, the award is very serious and precious. You passed the final trial of general rank without any damage, and there is no doubt that you will obtain the rank of general.”

Malik nodded slightly: "Malik is also deeply honored to be your subordinate."

 According to Malik's own account, it has been serving as a gatekeeper here. But in the final level, it can only defend passively and is subject to a series of rules and environmental constraints.

In addition, Malik was unable to train soldiers due to lack of logistical supplies.

 This can also be regarded as a coincidence and good news. If it is allowed to train for many years, most of the soldiers will be promoted to captain level, and even a large number of school-level soldiers will appear, then this place will really become an insurmountable restricted area.

Malik once led troops to deal with rebellions in remote areas within the Eldar tribe, and made many military exploits. He is a commander with rich practical experience.

It has skilled and excellent commanding abilities, otherwise it would not be promoted to brigadier general.

Just when Lu Yao was still learning about Malik’s situation and experience, a line of text suddenly appeared in front of him.

“The awarding process is completed and you are awarded the military rank: Major General.”

 Lu Yao finally felt relieved.

 Being able to be a major general recognized by the Spirit Race is not bad. Now he has a real recognized identity and has corresponding hard-core authority.

Yet the words on the retina continue to appear.

“The awarding rules are triggered. Since there are no other generals found, you will be automatically promoted.”

 “You have been awarded the promotion: Lieutenant General.”

“The awarding rules are triggered. Since there are no other generals found, you will be automatically promoted.”

 …

 Lu Yaoren was a little confused and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

This means that in the entire "Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy" system, I am the only active-duty general with a formal military rank, so I was promoted?

 “You have been awarded the promotion title: Marshal.”

 “You have been awarded the promotion: First Marshal.”

“You have received the highest honor and title of [Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy], and you will have the right to arrange the drill here.”

“Please wait a moment, the investiture process is in progress…”

Lu Yao felt that happiness was indeed knocking on the door, and he couldn't help but smile.

 The generals of the Eldest Tribe have already died, and now he is the only one.

There is only one official general in the entire army, but he has been promoted to the highest military commander along the way.

In other words, you can do whatever you want in this place!

Lu Yao quickly asked Malik next to him: "How many soldiers are there here?"

“Back to the First Marshal.” Malik had already changed his title at the same time and replied: “[Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy] is an important actual combat training base for the Eldar. Together with officers at all levels, a total of 230,000 soldiers and spirits are stationed and performing tasks.”

Lu Yao’s hands trembled when he heard this.

 Even ordinary soldiers have the fighting power to be called gods.

 This is a total of 230,000 soldiers!

 With such a large army at hand, who dares to compete with his brothers?

 Is this the joy of being a warlord? !

 At this time, Lu Yao discovered that he had an additional title of "First Marshal".

 …

  【First Marshal】

  Obtain [Supreme Commander], which will take effect within [Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy].

 …

  【Supreme Commander】: Can dispatch all soldiers and military facilities within the scope of the commander's authority and issue orders.

 …

He tried to use the [Supreme Commander] ability, and suddenly found that a soldier card symbol appeared in the upper right corner, followed by the population number: 237,551.

As you can see in the details below, there is 1 brigadier general, hundreds of officers, and more than 1,000 lieutenants.

Just when Lu Yao was excited, another line of subtitles popped up in front of his eyes.

“The investiture process failed.”

“Unable to connect to [Ling Gong].”

　　　"Unable to obtain a military commission."

"Dear First Marshal, according to the corresponding rules, you can only deploy and order soldiers in this area, and you do not have the authority to mobilize troops outside."

The smile on Lu Yao's face gradually disappeared.
