Military System

In the training system,there are three important options:troop training,general training,and personal training.

Troop Training:Train troops according to the system's method with a 100%success rate,turning soldiers into various types of troops.

Spearman Training:Soldiers equipped with short swords,spears,wooden shields,and leather armor have excellent frontal combat capabilities.However,once their formation is breached,they can only fight with short swords.Training Time:One month,Cost:2 per person.

...

Two-Handed Swordsman:Soldiers wielding two-handed swords and wearing leather armor have balanced abilities and are a very good type of light infantry.Training Time:One month,Cost:1 per person.

...

Great Axe Warrior:Soldiers equipped with great axes and chainmail have strong impact and destructive power,possessing great strength in melees.However,they lack means to deal with enemies with tight defensive formations.Training Time:Three months,Cost:10 per person.

...

The troop training section lists various types of troops.Lin Tan roughly counted and found there were no less than dozens.Using troop training requires consuming the aforementioned faith energy,and different types of troops consume different amounts of faith energy.For example,training a spearman costs 2 energy points,while a great axe warrior costs five!This doesn't even include the gold coins needed to equip weapons.More advanced troop types consume even more.He also keenly noticed that there were many blank troop slots behind,which seemed to imply that more troop types would be unlocked in the future.

General Training,as the name suggests,provides unique training methods for subordinate generals.However,these trainings also require faith energy,and the exorbitant prices made Lin Tan shudder.

The personal training behind was perhaps the most suitable for Lin Tan's current situation.It was for the system to use for personal strength,wisdom,and other aspects of training.

Lin Tan was very concerned about this newly emerged"faction system"and"training system,"and the grayed-out country and religion options especially delighted Lin Tan.Which man didn't have the ambition to achieve great deeds with golden spears and iron horses?As a transmigrator,Lin Tan didn't want to be left behind at all.

However,although Lin Tan was eager to further explore the mysteries of this faction system,Galabron obviously didn't have the awareness to be a gentleman.The young knight being pulled by the middle-aged uncle to practice swordsmanship didn't dare to be distracted at all.After all,even a blunt sword used for training hurt a lot when it hit the body!

In the evening,after a day of swordsmanship training,Lin Tan returned to his room,sat in front of the table,spread out a white parchment and a quill pen,dipped it in ink,and began to write vigorously until late at night.

The next morning,Lin Tan handed a training manual to Galabron.

"What's this?"Galabron casually flipped through it and found it was a training plan for one month.He looked at it and quickly noticed something different about this training manual.Although he was a veteran who had survived battles on the battlefield,he couldn't see any particular benefits from this manual,"Where did you get this?Will this kind of training really work?"

"Of course it will,"Lin Tan said confidently.He naturally had full confidence in what the system provided,especially since he had tried that so-called personal training last night,and the results were really good.

"Uncle Galabron,today you will guide the mercenary troupe in training,and my own training will be conducted separately on the side,"Seeing Galabron's skeptical look,Lin Tan explained,"We will definitely continue to undertake mercenary missions;otherwise,the manor alone can't support these people,and I don't want to let my father's efforts go to waste.Of course,don't worry,I will never neglect my swordsmanship training,and you can check it then!"

Seeing that Lin Tan had spoken thusly,Galabron didn't say any more and began to gather the mercenaries with the training manual.

Lin Tan watched the uncle's back and,after making sure no one was paying attention to him,activated the system to start his own training.

The personal training system offered many training methods,and of course,such training also required a cost,consuming the aforementioned faith energy.

Now Lin Tan had figured out how this faith energy was obtained:it was very similar to the faith in deities.When someone felt respect,admiration,or similar emotions towards him,these emotions would evolve into faith energy and be absorbed by the system.However,unlike deities,where one cannot believe in another god while believing in one,personal admiration does not conflict with religious faith.At this time,Lin Tan's faith energy generation speed was extremely slow,which was,of course,inevitable,as he was just an unknown person,and there were probably very few who could feel respect or similar emotions towards him.

After activating the faction system,the 100 faith energy points obtained had already been mostly spent on exchanging for the troop training of spearmen and two-handed swordsmen.After spending another 10 faith energy points to exchange for a full day of Dou Qi training,it directly dropped to zero.Coupled with the gold coins used for purchasing equipment and maintaining the mercenary troupe,Lin Tan was now on the verge of bankruptcy in both the system's faith energy and personal assets.While training,he was also thinking about how to make some money and increase the production of faith energy.

At lunchtime,he sent a mercenary to the town to see if there were any tasks that could be executed a month later.He had already decided that no matter what,he would leave Helker Town a month later and head east for adventure!

Time flew by,and a month passed in the blink of an eye.The mercenaries of the troupe had also been transformed into system-recognized spearmen and two-handed swordsmen under the system's training.By this time,Lin Tan's knight title had also been granted,along with the inheritance certificate issued by the noble council,which had considered the bloodline genealogy and the proof from local gentry.

Lin Tan's own strength level did not increase and remained a Level 3 knight.However,he had obtained the method of using"Holy Dou Qi,"which he had,of course,exchanged from the system for 100 energy points.Now,when he used his Dou Qi,it was no longer the transparent,invisible original Dou Qi but a holy power emanating a milky white flame,which greatly enhanced his strength.If he were to fight seriously,there was no one in Helker Town who could match him now,and even Galabron,Lin Tan was confident he could defeat.

An appropriate mercenary mission had also been found.The mission was quite ordinary,just a simple escort mission.A caravan was heading east into the territory of the Florentine Principality and needed an escort of more than 20 mercenaries.The Frege Mercenary Troupe had 30 people and had gained some fame on the eastern orc battlefield,so they were fully qualified to take on the mission.

However,before executing the mission,Lin Tan and his team needed to resolve a small trouble...
