Chapter 119 118. Old York's reluctance
Although he passed the reserve knight assessment, for Suldak, this was only the first step on the road to becoming a knight.
To become a knight, Suldak needs to enter a regular knight academy to study for three years, and also needs to raise his warrior level to tenth level, which means that Suldak must allow himself to comprehend the 'potential' and be promoted. Just become a warrior.
And it is precisely this point that is a difficult gap for countless fighters to bridge.
The reason is that it is very difficult for many fighters to comprehend 'Position' in their lifetime, and comprehending 'Position' does not depend on acquired efforts.
Baron Sidney told Suldak: "Position" is actually the warriors' understanding of the battle, which is formed by condensing spiritual power. Only those with strong spiritual power can easily perceive their own "potential"...
Baron Sidney is still very satisfied with Suldak's recent performance. Baron Sidney is a first-time knight. He will always find time to personally mention this new subordinate recently. To improve his strength as soon as possible, Baron Sidney also taught Suldak two combat skills.
…
Old York was sitting on a square stool with his upper body shirtless, and a maid wiped the sweat off his body with a damp cloth. He had some experience looking at his arm. The ugly centipede-like scar on his arm had been in the past week. It was fading little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the hidden wound left by that wound was also recovering rapidly.
And all this stems from the young boy in front of him...
I don't know if it's Xiao Dak's luck or Suldak's luck? Just saving this young man on the battlefield caused Suldak to undergo earth-shaking changes in the recent period. He first became the captain of the second team, and then became an excellent team capable of hunting evil spirits. In the end, the team was favored by Baron Sidney, and he was promoted to be his confidant. Just waiting for him to step down as the squadron leader, Suldak will become the youngest squadron leader of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment .
is about to resign, and to be honest, Old York is really reluctant.
I have spent most of my life with the army, and I want to return to the life of a normal person, but I just feel that life is so strange to me, and I have a kind of strange fear.
And the reason why I resigned from the position of the captain of the sixth squadron was entirely due to physical reasons.
My body is like an old broken clock. The clockwork gears at the core of the middle rail are rusted, all the screws are completely loose, and the pendulum may stop at any time. This kind of body can no longer withstand the pressure of war. It was because of this that Old York applied to Earl Mond Goss for dismissal and to return home.
Earl Mond Goss also fully understood this, and Earl Mond Goss suggested to Old York to find a quieter town in the western part of the Province of Bena and enjoy the last period of time.
Not only that, Earl Mund Goss also gave Old York a maid, so that someone could take care of Old York on the trip back home.
But at this time, Old York found that these ailments on his body were slowly recovering under the careful treatment of Little Duck. His hands, which were about to be unable to hold the knight's long sword, became stable and powerful again, bent due to pain. My lower back can straighten again, but at this time, I still want to say goodbye to this period of military career...
Old York stretched out his hand and patted He Boqiang's shoulder for fear, and said to He Boqiang with a smile: "During this time, I have really worked hard for you!"
He Boqiang always felt that Old York's smile was full of bitterness, shouldn't he be happy when his injury is healed?
He Boqiang made a gesture to Old York, please help keep this secret.
Old York nodded slowly and said: "I know this. Once this news gets out, you will probably be forced into the Constructed Swordsman Corps under the command of the Duke. No matter which legion needs a talent like you, you will be in the future." Live a life of rich clothes and good food, but it is very likely to lose the most precious freedom."
He Boqiang never thought about what Old York said.
He was just afraid that when he woke up one day, he would find that there were wounded soldiers waiting for treatment outside the tent. From opening his eyes to closing them every day, there were always wounds that could not be cured. All, this is the scariest.
His gaze flitted over the round arm of the maidservant behind Old York, He Boqiang hurriedly lowered his head, perhaps because he had stayed in the barracks for a long time, when he looked at a woman, he always needed strong willpower to keep his gaze away from her. Moving away, her skin is as white as milk, her golden curly hair, and her big blue eyes are like a pool of water. Although her waist is a bit thick, it doesn't affect her beauty at all...
He Boqiang felt that he had better leave as soon as possible.
"Are you leaving now? Would you like to have another drink with me?" Old York's hoarse voice came from behind He Boqiang.
He Boqiang hurriedly opened the tent curtain and quickly escaped from Old York's tent.
…
After becoming the deputy squadron leader, Suldak had his own separate tent. He built this tent next to the second squadron. This spacious tent not only has a bed, but also tables and chairs. one of the benefits.
He Boqiang is still huddled in a tent with the soldiers of the second team. Seeing He Boqiang hurried in from the outside, Augustus leaned out half of his body from the innermost part of the tent, and said to He Boqiang at the door of the tent: "Little Dak, I think it is a rare experience to go hunting in rainy days, do you want to try it?"
He Boqiang took off his long leather boots, placed them on the shelf at the door of the tent, and lay down on his own seat, ignoring Augustus at all.
Since he hunted the magic antelope last time, whenever he has the opportunity, he will lobby everyone to go out to hunt junior monsters together.
However, due to continuous fighting, the monsters in the forest at the foot of Moyunling Mountain have already migrated to other places. If they want to hunt monsters, they have to travel farther. There is no interest in this kind of thing anymore, but Augustus always wants to sneak out.
"It's time for our team to enter the bed crossbow position the day after tomorrow, Captain!" Red Sock reminded Augustus in a low voice.
After Suldak became the deputy squadron leader of the sixth squadron, it is reasonable to say that he can also serve as the captain of the second squadron, but the old York has completely ignored the affairs of the squadron recently. Suldak must not only be familiar with these affairs, but also He worked hard to improve his own strength, so the position of captain of the second team was naturally handed over to Augustus, who was the strongest in the team.
It’s just that Augustus has not been able to enter the role of the team leader yet, and he always encourages everyone to sneak out from time to time.
The bearded Cagle opened the curtain of the tent and walked in with a bundle of heavy shields. The damaged shields were sent to the logistics department for repair. These new shields were tower shields specially approved by Suldak through the authority of the squadron leader.
Red Socks helped Cagle put the shield under the wooden frame, and said with emotion: "It is comfortable to have someone on it. If we had a shield of this quality, I guess that battle would not hurt so many people..."
The bearded Cagle said: "Oh, by the way, the captain said that our team has taken on a new mission, let us wait for him in the tent..."
