Chapter 297 The Primarch Legion

Chapter 297 The Primarch Legion
In addition to the comprehensive development in the three aspects of strange machinery, plants and necromancy, the traditional supernatural powers and the War Council were naturally not left behind.

The knight families of Donnar and the spellcaster families of Sinnar have similar attitudes towards supernatural knowledge. They both strictly restrict its dissemination, and the knowledge that can be spread on a small scale among the people is basically low-level knowledge.

At best, you can only cultivate to the level of the third ring.

Moreover, Donnar's knowledge blockade is even more severe than Sinnar's.

After all, there was once a Littorio in Sinnar. Although many of his measures have disappeared in time, the Tower of Truth has been passed down to the present day.

Although the schools of thought in the Tower of Truth have gradually evolved into academic cliques, shrinking the channels for wild mages to be promoted to mid-level spellcasters, it is undeniable that the Tower of Truth still has channels for advancement.

Moreover, the various schools of the Tower of Truth would go out to recruit new apprentices every few years or even every ten years. If one had good talent and was noticed by the spellcasters of the school, one could easily rise to the top.

As for Donnar, the room for improvement of Wild Knight can be said to be very limited.

The throne of the Central Kingdom has been vacant for a thousand years, and with the de facto independence of the various knight kingdoms, the upward channels that the Central Kingdom once established have completely disappeared.

If a wild knight wants to climb up, he can either become a squire of a knight family or a middle or high-level knight, or stand out from the countless knight duels in Donnar and be recruited by a knight family or a middle or high-level knight who is watching the game.

Whether it is the former or the latter, they all need to work for others. The only difference is that the latter is treated slightly better than the former.

Moreover, unlike the school constraints of the Tower of Truth, the Knights of Donnar adopted the oath constraints.

In the former, spellcasters who join the school can generally retain a certain degree of autonomy. As long as they are promoted to mid-level spellcasters and repay the school for its training, there will generally be no problem leaving the school.

As for the latter, joining basically means that this wild knight is completely tied to the knight family he joins, or the middle and high-level knights he is loyal to, although as long as his strength is improved, he can still gain respect among them.

However, they can never leave their family or the knights they are loyal to. Once they leave, they will be considered oath breakers and rejected by the entire Donnar.

Therefore, in Donnar, even if wild knights want to join the knight family, they are very cautious. There are many wild knights who would rather waste a few years, a dozen years, or even decades of silent observation and selection of knight families.

Although some wild knights were forced to make the final choice as they grew older, more wild knights would rather find a place to get married and have children than make a decision easily when they could not find a suitable family or lord.

Therefore, a special situation has been formed in Donnar where the master chooses his ministers and the ministers choose their master.

Under this special circumstance, the number of wild knights in Donnar is far greater than the number of wild mages in Sinnar.

Moreover, the number of field knights who make the choice every year to pledge allegiance to knight families or middle and high-level knights is much less than the number of apprentices recruited by the Sinar School each year.

Therefore, the growth rate of high-level extraordinary people in Sinar is higher than that in Dongnar.

Moreover, these two completely different channels of ascension also led to two completely different fates for the Silver Empire and the Central Kingdom.

The various schools in the Tower of Truth at least have a certain centripetal force towards the Silver Empire, and each school still hopes that the Silver Empire can survive. Therefore, most of the spellcasters who come out of the school also have a sense of belonging to the Silver Empire.

It is precisely because of this that, when the Silver Empire began to weaken, so many political societies appeared in the Tower of Truth to explore the future of the Silver Empire.

Moreover, it was tacitly approved and supported by various schools of thought. Otherwise, these political associations that did not quite comply with the regulations would have been suppressed long ago.

What about the Central Kingdom? Perhaps when the Central Kingdom was first established, the central authority still existed, and the dual loyalty system, or the dual monarchy, had not yet collapsed, the newly born knights swore allegiance to the knight family or the middle and high-level knights, and also swore allegiance to the Central Kingdom at the same time.

Moreover, loyalty to the Central Kingdom is higher than loyalty to the knight families and middle and high-level knights.

The new knights who grew up under this dual monarchy still had a sense of belonging to the Central Kingdom. However, after the various knight kingdoms became independent in fact, this dual monarchy inevitably collapsed.

In order to reduce the influence of the Central Kingdom on the Knight Kingdom, the dual monarchy inevitably weakened. Knights still had to swear allegiance to knight families or middle and high-level knights, and the oath to the Central Kingdom became dispensable.

At the beginning, some Knight Kingdoms wanted to exchange their sworn allegiance to the Central Kingdom for loyalty to the Knight Kingdom, but this reform was not welcomed by local Knight families.

After all, independence is about having no leader above you, not about changing a leader.

Therefore, in order to gain the support of local nobles for the king, most knight kingdoms had to give up this tempting idea and completely abandon the dual monarchy in favor of a single allegiance system.

After the dual monarchy completely disappeared in the long river of history, the new knights of Donnar naturally became less and less identified with the Central Kingdom.

So much so that when the Green Tide first invaded Donnar, neither the Central Kingdom nor other Knight Kingdoms that were not affected by the Green Tide responded to the requests for help from the Border Knight Kingdoms.

Even when the Central Kingdom was first invaded, few Knight Kingdoms were willing to help.

If the Green Tide had not been so aggressive and posed a threat to destroy the entire Donnar, the various knight kingdoms in Donnar would not have formed an alliance with ulterior motives to fight against the Green Tide.

In addition, this system of loyalty only to knight families or middle and high-level knights is also one of the reasons why Roland was able to launch a coup within the Locke Resistance Army simply by secretly contacting the top leaders of the Border Faction.

Although this system of single loyalty was not a bad thing for Roland who had not yet formed a war committee, it was a completely bad system for Roland who had already formed a war committee.

Just like Roland had previously used the Locke Resistance to welcome all military forces that opposed the Green Tide and quickly recruited soldiers to join the resistance, but after establishing the War Committee, he crossed the river and demolished the bridge, completely blocking this road.

Roland also wanted to change this system of single allegiance.

However, before Roland proposed reforms to the system of unitary allegiance, the members of the Executive Committee took the lead in proposing the idea of ​​restoring the dual monarchy.

Either all the knights swear allegiance to the War Council and place the War Council's orders above those of their former masters.

Although the dual monarchy was not what Roland wanted, he considered that taking too big a step could easily lead to trouble. Furthermore, the Executive Committee passed it with a high ratio of ten to two, and Roland could not use his veto power, so he agreed.

Since the dual monarchy has historical memory, and the powerful knight families or middle and high-level knights in the War Council are basically border factions that have already joined the War Council, the implementation of this policy did not cause much waves.

After all, they were the top brass of the War Council and were happy to see the strengthening of central power.

As for the local forces that may be dissatisfied with this policy, they have lost their ability to oppose as they show no signs of life.

However, the dual monarchy has disappeared for a thousand years. Even if it is re-implemented, how effective it will be for the existing knights who are loyal to it can only be tested by time.

Although the effect of the reform will not be very obvious for the knights who already have an object of loyalty, it will still have a certain effect on the newly trained extraordinary people.

Since the War Committee's future plans require a large number of extraordinary people, after more than ten days of heated debate among all the executive members of the Executive Committee, the plan to build an academy and uniformly train extraordinary people was confirmed.

The traditional Donnar extraordinary training system can no longer meet the needs of the committee. The one-on-one extraordinary training is too inefficient.

Moreover, the level of these one-on-one trained extraordinary people is uncertain, and most of the knights trained by wild knights are even worse wild knights.

Although the knights who were one-on-one with the knight family and received elite training were relatively better, this kind of elite training was a waste of resources, and it would also waste a lot of time and energy on some unnecessary courses, such as aristocratic etiquette.

Therefore, according to Roland's recommendation, the War Committee decided to build a super college belonging to Donnar, modeled after the Sinnar Super College. Moreover, the recruitment scope would be expanded to recruit all members of the War Committee. As long as they passed the assessment, they could enroll for free.

Unlike the Extraordinary Academy in Sinnar, which only recruits the children of nobles, the academy has been reduced to a profit-making organization and a platform for the nobles to exchange feelings with each other.

As for the teaching knowledge, it was provided by Roland and the various executive committee members. Of course, the main part was still provided by Roland. After all, the knowledge Roland possessed was superior to everyone else in both quality and quantity.

Although most of the members of the Executive Committee were more inclined to train more knights, Roland's efforts led to the increase in the number of Knight Academies and Spellcaster Academies to a ratio of 3:1, with eighteen Knight Academies and six Spellcaster Academies.

Among them, some spellcaster academies will also offer three subjects: strange machinery, plants, and necromancy.

Although various colleges soon sprang up in various parts of the War Council, the colleges were built and there were enough students, but there were not enough teachers.

In desperation, Roland could only draw out extraordinary people from the military and send them to colleges in various places to provide the freshmen with extraordinary enlightenment and basic extraordinary education based on the content of the textbooks.

As for how to get more advanced extraordinary education, students can only rely on self-study. After all, the knowledge is there, so they can read it and learn it by themselves.

As long as you have no problem with your brain and don't do anything stupid, you will definitely not die.

Besides, even if I die, the worst that can happen is that I can go to the Fountain of Life and wait for resurrection.

If they have any questions, they can ask the teacher. If the teacher doesn’t know the answer, he/she can send it to Roland, and Roland will directly provide them with remote teaching.

Of course, Roland would occasionally take time out to guide students in various colleges. He would visit each college about once every two months to answer the various questions that the students had. Then, he would take all the students in the college out for about half a day of practice.

If there are special circumstances such as meetings or going out, the bimonthly visits will be postponed, but they will be made up later.

Just like when he went out to the Silver Gate, it was delayed for about a month.

In addition to training a new generation of extraordinary people in the academy, the training of the army under the War Council was also not relaxed.

The academy is just a traditional training institution. There will not be any major restrictions on the development direction of students. Students are encouraged to learn and develop independently, so as to cultivate extraordinary people in the traditional sense.

But it is different in the military. The extraordinary people trained by the military are not traditional extraordinary people, but military extraordinary people who focus on quick training and military warfare.

Don’t worry about whether you understand the principles or not, and you don’t need to study or research them. It is enough as long as you can skillfully apply various techniques and spells that can be used in war. The rest is not something that military extraordinary people need to care about.

Of course, Roland would not lock up the future of the military extraordinary. As long as he could complete the learning and training goals on time, it would not be impossible if he still wanted to improve himself.

However, since the number of military extraordinary people is many times greater than the number of students trained in the academy, although it is not difficult for military extraordinary people to borrow various knowledge, they are not so abundant in terms of resources.

Of course, this is only the treatment for ordinary military extraordinary people. Officers who have climbed to the position of a thousand households or legion commander by relying on their own abilities will have relatively more resources.

Moreover, military extraordinary people have an advantage that academic extraordinary people do not have, that is, the Primarch Legion.

Before the coup, Roland collected a lot of materials in the turbulence of time and space. In Roland's hands, these materials were successfully made into various cores.

After the coup was completed and the War Council established complete rule, Roland also selected a large number of capable people from the 500,000 soldiers.

After continuous experiments on a large number of fit people, Roland successfully created a total of nine Primarchs.

Moreover, they were originally equipped with a full set of cores from the first ring to the fifth ring. After each Primarch adapted to the core in his body, his combat power could approach that of a five-ring knight.

The nine primarchs are: Death Knight of the Death Core, Light Invoker of the Light Core, Wind Knight of the Gale Core, Wood Apostle of the Life Core, Ice Knight of the Deep Blue Core, Red Knight of the Scorching Core, Guardian of the Earth Core, Shadow Dancer of the Shadow Core, and Extreme Warrior of the Purity Core.

Among them, Death Knight, Wind Knight, Ice Knight and Red Knight are all classic single-element knight primarchs, while the remaining primarchs are different.

The Prayer of Light is a spellcaster modeled after the priests of the Sinnar Pantheon. He can use light element spells to heal the wounded and can be simply understood as a priest.

The Wood Apostle is a spellcaster modeled after the Moon Elves and Wood Elves. He is mainly able to use wood elements and life spells. Although he also has some healing ability, his main position is still the archer and priest among the elves. Currently, he is mainly assigned to the botanical garden, responsible for cultivating various extraordinary vegetation.

The Guardian is an atypical knight, or warrior, modeled after the Dwarf Rune Warrior. He does not need a mount and can draw strength from the earth just by standing on the ground. His position is as a front-row meat shield.

Shadow Dancer was created based on the player's assassin system. He can use the power of shadows and his main position is assassin.

As for the Ultramarines, as Roland's last creation, the Ultramarines have no special abilities, only all-round improvement and strengthening of the body and soul. They are mainly prepared by Roland for those who are not suitable for the first eight cores.

Of course, these are just Roland's positioning, and these cores only provide these capabilities. If you can learn something else yourself, it is not impossible to change your style.

For example, if a Light Prayer learns some offensive light element spells, it is not impossible to switch jobs and become a spellcaster turret.

As one of the evil quick-fix methods, the strength of these eight Primarchs soared rapidly after the successful operation. However, since Alfonso underwent the operation the earliest, Alfonso is currently the most powerful of the eight Primarchs.

Therefore, Alfonso's derivative core was the first to be collected, and the Death Knights were the first to start expanding, while the remaining Primarchs lagged behind by several months before they could collect their derivative cores and start expanding.

Military transcendents are also the only transcendents who can undergo the surgery to install the original body's derivative core.

Compared to the slow and steady development of the academic school, as long as the military extraordinary can survive the operation and adapt, on average they can have combat power far exceeding that of the three-ring extraordinary, second only to the four-ring extraordinary. At the very least, they can directly leap to the combat power of the three-ring extraordinary.
Moreover, the War Committee can also collect derivative cores from them.

However, considering that the core they installed was originally a derivative core of the original body, and it was derived again, the quality of the cores that came out twice was not very good.

Therefore, the War Committee mainly focuses on the Primarch's derived cores and the derived cores of the Primarch's derived cores. The derived cores derived for the third time were not collected.

By means of this operation, the War Council is continuously producing large numbers of Tri-Ring Primarch Legionnaires.

Although after each collection, a large amount of nutritional supplements need to be provided to the collected person, resulting in a high cost for producing soldiers of the Tricyclic Protozoan Legion.

Of course, this was just Roland's idea. The executive committee members had only one attitude towards this technology that could mass-produce three-ring soldiers: no matter how high the cost was, even if they had to sell everything they had, they had to grit their teeth and persevere.

After all, no matter what, compared with the cost of traditional training of three-ring transcendents, the cost of Primarch Legion soldiers can be said to be too cheap.

 Damn it, other people update their articles every day with 10,000 words per chapter or in two chapters, but I'm such an idiot that I only publish them in five chapters.

  No wonder the average subscription dropped so much.
