Blue Sword

Everyone is about to arrive at the battlefield outside Verona.

Riding on the horse, Eleanor couldn't help but recall Asker's words again:

"Purely speaking from the bloodline of the Crusaders, the more powerful laws include 'honor' condensed from 'justice', 'guardian' condensed from 'fortitude', and the law of the same name of 'will', and of course 'war' '."

"If you want to continue learning the Unyielding Holy Sword, then choosing the Law of Will is the most suitable for you. If you don't plan to take the path of extraordinary swordsmanship, then you can condense any law."

Really, doesn’t this imply that I choose the law of will?

After condensing the blood of the Crusaders, Eleanor's physique and will have been enhanced.

For example, if Hidrifa's Lv.10 is a simple and crude increase in attack and defense, Paige's Lv.10 is to strengthen blood recovery and physical immunity, then Eleanor's Lv.10 is to increase all attributes, and Significantly increase the life limit.

Whether it is explosive power, control, endurance and reaction speed, or intelligence and mental strength, all have been strengthened in a balanced way.

Even his body shape has changed. Eleanor's original height was 172cm. When she was promoted to Level 10, her height also increased to 178cm. The extra 6cm seemed to be added to her legs, so that now she has a pair of long legs, even the original trousers. Pulled it out from the ankle.

Ask was speechless when he saw it, until Nora accelerated her horse forward and blocked his sight.

"What are you looking at?" the girl said in a gentle tone.

For some reason, Asik suddenly felt a little chilly, but he always had an open mind, so he said truthfully:

"This Crusader bloodline should supposedly optimize the body, but why don't I remember that it has the effect of growing legs?"

"Don't girls have long legs?" Nora wondered.

"Are the legs long?" Asik was also puzzled. As the legs got longer, the body's center of gravity became higher and unstable. If you change the length of your agility-type legs, you can still run faster. What's the use of longer MT legs?

Eleanor listened to the discussion between the two and sighed in her heart, knowing that they did not communicate on the same channel at all.

Everyone worked hard and quickly arrived at the outskirts of the Verona battlefield. They saw that the former minefields had turned into criss-crossing trenches within a few days.

Apparently, Demigod Venis, who arrived a few days in advance, had already cleared all the mines (and soil) in the soil, and dug trenches along the way. The efficiency was so high that it was worthy of being called a "black hole excavator."

As for the purpose of digging trenches, it was already obvious from the gunfire from the front.

The Holy See's Templar army has arrived.

All the way to the entrance of the emperor's coalition camp, after confirming their identities, everyone dismounted and rushed to the command tent.

In the tent, the emperor and the dukes were discussing the follow-up battle plan. So everyone in Cang Qing Sword could only wait outside. Half an hour later, the Dukes filed out of the tent.

The Duke of Bavaria was walking in the middle and saw his daughter and fellow mercenaries standing nearby. He frowned slightly and walked over.

"Your Majesty is in a very impatient mood." He did not show any blame or surprise, as if he had expected that these young people would choose to come back. He just told Aske lightly, "When you finish reporting your duties, you may have to do it immediately. Sent to war."

"What's the shape of the battlefield?" Ask asked in a low voice.

"The Templars are here, what do you think?" the Duke of Bavaria replied, patting him on the shoulder.

Ask knew what the Duke meant (protect my daughter), so he nodded knowingly.

The Duke glanced at Eleanor for the last time, and the latter exclaimed with some guilt:

"Father……"

However, the Duke of Bavaria said nothing and left.

The curtains of the emperor's tent were raised, and the Saxon chamberlain beckoned them in.

Next came the body-searching session of the Blade Warriors. The emperor actually had a female Blade Warrior beside him to search the girls. After checking to confirm that there was nothing wrong, everyone was introduced to the emperor.

This is the first time that the girls, except Ask, have seen His Majesty Emperor Otto of the Empire. Everyone lowered their heads and only glanced at the noble man in front of them with their peripheral vision.

"You have done a good job." Emperor Otto sighed, "Unfortunately, it is still a little late, but this is not your responsibility... As for the reward, Albrecht has already given it to you, right?"

Didn’t that Albrecht come back early? Wouldn't you know if you asked him?

Ask was speechless at the emperor's pretentiousness, and pretended to be respectful and said: "I've got it."

"Very good." His Majesty the Emperor nodded slightly. Asik keenly noticed that the old man's complexion was obviously much worse than before his group went to Venis City. This was probably because the recent war situation had put too much pressure on him.

"After His Excellency Sansovino cleared the minefield, the anti-magic magnetic field was activated in the city of Verona, and at the same time a large number of Templar Knights rushed out of the city." The emperor sneered contemptuously, "Obviously, if I had I misunderstood the advice of the Dukes and rashly allowed two giant dragons to attack the city from the air. I am afraid that I have already been ambushed and set on fire by the Templars in the city."

"Your Majesty is extremely wise." Asik complimented.

Damn it! The leader actually knows how to flatter! The girls behind them lowered their heads and complained in disbelief in their hearts.

"Now that the enemy's ambush plan has been exposed, they can only set up a battle array to confront me openly, which means a tough battle is inevitable." The emperor waved his hand impatiently, "Ask! I know your mercenaries. Although the group is all girls, they are all senior extraordinary people, right?"

"Yes, His Majesty's holy eyes are shining brightly." Asik complimented again.

No, I'm going to vomit! Mia was shaking violently from behind, trying not to laugh out loud. Medea glanced back calmly.

Desire manipulation wiped out Mia's urge to laugh wildly - this was a clever technique she learned from the demigods of the Pure Blood Monastery.

"Very good, I have always been generous." The emperor nodded and said, "Previous transactions have proven this."

Yes, Eleanor, Medea, and Sheila’s elders gave them Level IV potions or materials. You, the majestic emperor, gave you a bottle of Level III potions and asked other families to pay for it. Really generous.

"Next, I plan to continue to hire you." The emperor was unaware of the other party's slander and continued, "As long as the city of Verona is captured, I will naturally have a matching reward."

"Okay." Ask said.

"I haven't said how much the mission will be paid yet." The emperor was a little surprised.

"Could it be that His Majesty would treat our small mercenary group unfairly in terms of price?" Ask said with a smile.

Then Emperor Otto also laughed out loud, and his compliment seemed very useful: "Of course, no one in this world is more trustworthy than me."

"Asker, you are a smart man, and I will stop being polite and hypocritical with you. As long as you capture the city of Verona, I will give you whatever price you want."

"I trust your Majesty." Asik promised directly without being pretentious.

Of course, the emperor's words were just words. If Asker really offered a sky-high price, Emperor Otto would definitely turn his back.

So the two people, who knew each other well and had ulterior motives, finalized the subsequent employment agreement with each other's words as if they were kings and ministers.

After everyone from Cang Qing Sword left, the emperor put away his smile, waved slightly, and the attendant came out from the side room.

"Do you think the Cang Qing Sword mercenary group agreed to me too readily?" the emperor asked with a frown.

The attendant knew that His Majesty had committed an old habit - and had become suspicious of others for no reason. He smiled bitterly in his mind and explained:

"Your Majesty, although the Blue Sword is a mercenary group, it has always taken business from nobles. For example, Olympia City, Sparta City, Weisbach Family, Sauron Family, etc."

"It would be strange if they were just like an ordinary small mercenary group who cares about the deposit in advance."

"Well." The emperor had to admit that what his nephew said made sense, "Then let's see their performance first."
