At this time, she had retreated to a position about 30 meters away from the self-exploding soil root, holding a short bow with some white phosphorus smeared on the arrowhead.
Valencia planned to destroy the self-destructing big soil root at this location... In fact, the water-type self-destructing big soil root had no lethality at all, but it would cause mud and water to fly all over the sky.
Valencia didn't want the skirt and black stockings she had just put on to get stained.
She fully drew the short bow, took aim, and as soon as she loosened her finger, the arrow flew out from the string. The heat of the frictional air ignited the white phosphorus in mid-air, turning it into a burning arrow.
boom!
Amidst the splashing of mud and water, the herb that was most likely a life-saving herb for the elites of the Desolate Beast Clan disappeared.
Chapter 75 The female knight was spotted by the dancer as soon as she arrived at the assembly point
blah blah blah.
On the official road outside Suli City, a maroon horse was approaching the city gate at a brisk pace.
There is a beautiful and hot female knight on the horse. She is wearing light armor that only protects her vital parts. Under her pleated skirt is a seductive black silk pantsuit, and her feet are wrapped in leather boots.
The person coming was none other than Valencia.
After she completely solved the problem with the Winged Blade Falcon, she just changed horses and people and galloped all the way, covering a distance of 500 kilometers in just one day.
Now that we finally arrived, the night had not yet completely fallen. The scenery of the outskirts of Suli in the setting sun was so beautiful that Valencia couldn't help but slow down and take a few glances.
Suli City is considered a large city in the Kingdom of France, and is roughly equivalent to the provincial capital of Valencia in her previous life.
The permanent population exceeds 50, and there will only be more if you count the traveling merchants, travelers, and adventurers.
The reason why Suli City can develop is that in addition to being a transportation hub in the eastern part of the Kingdom of France, the natural environment on the outskirts of the city is also crucial.
The terrain here is slightly lower than the surrounding areas. It can barely be regarded as a basin. The air is moist and the temperature is suitable. All kinds of beasts, plants and monsters live here, and the ecology is very prosperous.
Starting about 30 kilometers outside Suli City, Valencia could feel a significant increase in the number of beasts and monsters wandering near the official road, many of which she had seen for the first time.
Among them was a big white cat that looked like a leopard and rushed towards Valencia. At that time, the horse was frightened and Valensa was about to draw her sword to accept the food delivered to her door.
It turned out that the big cat was not attacking at all, but acting coquettishly and begging for food... It was obvious that this was not the first time it had done this on the official road.
Valencia stroked the big cat very unceremoniously, and then fed it some roasted antler meat, which she got from the previous confrontation with the Wing Blade Falcon and had not yet finished eating.
After leisurely watching the scenery for a while, until most of the sun sank below the horizon, Valencia waved her riding crop again and sped towards the city gate.
Normally, entering the city at this time would require questioning by the gatekeepers, but the privileges of noble status were still very useful.
Not only did the gatekeepers of Surry City not ask Valencia, they also welcomed her and answered many of her questions respectfully.
After all, this was Valencia's first time in Surry City, and there was no mobile phone navigation in this world. It would be difficult to quickly find the meeting point in the city without asking for directions.
Fortunately, the assembly point set up by the War College was quite famous in the local area, and the soldiers guarding the gate were familiar with the road and gave Valencia a detailed explanation.
Following the guidance of the gatekeeper, Valensa first went to the nearest horse rental shop to return the horse, and then went directly to the assembly point arranged by the War College.
This is a pub, it's quite quiet inside, and you can't hear any noise outside the door.
When you push the door in, the space inside the store is large enough to accommodate more than a hundred people without being crowded.
It should be reserved by the Zhan Zhan College now. There are only about 30 people present, and everyone looks very young and is the same age as Valencia.
When she looked around, she noticed that people were also quietly sizing her up.
It's just different from the eyes in the adventurer hall that often focus on the black stockings under her skirt. Although these people will also take a few glances at her black stockings, they are more focused on observing her weapons, equipment and pace.
This can also be regarded as a prerequisite question for the second level of the assessment.
The people present were all candidates who had passed the first level, but none of them knew each other’s identities, or even which department they were candidates for.
Everyone relies on their own discernment. Candidates in the command department need to recruit excellent vanguards and logistics personnel to join the team here. The vanguards and logistics personnel can also choose the captain they want to follow.
The Zhan Zhan Academy wants to train the best young people in the Kingdom of France. If you don't have any vision, you should go home and train for another year, or wait for marriage.
So in most cases, you can basically recognize which department the candidates here belong to at a glance.
Needless to say about the logistics department, whether they are doctors, craftsmen or alchemists, their appearance and temperament are very obvious, and ordinary people with normal intelligence can see them at a glance.
What is more difficult to judge is the command system and the vanguard system.
Those who apply for the command system may not be without force. On the contrary, there are many strong men, because the strong generals who lead the charge are also the development direction of the command system.
In the same way, people in the vanguard department are not necessarily dressed as warriors or mages. Many vanguard soldiers like to dress up as inconspicuous civilians, and they only show their edge when taking action.
In addition, in order to explore each other's depth and find truly reliable teammates, candidates from the Advanced Soldier Department and the Command Department also like to pretend to swap identities and deceive each other.
At this time, everyone in the tavern was speculating on Valencia's identity.
She is obviously a noble, and it is said that she may have a greater command line, but she also wears armor and carries a shield, and her steps are steady and powerful, and she is not just pretending. She is a female knight who has experienced many actual battles.
This left many people unsure. No matter who was looking for the captain or her teammates, they didn't move and were still silently observing Valencia.
However, there are many young men who cannot hide the eagerness in their eyes. After all, Valencia is really hot and beautiful. Even if her strength is a bit lacking, her appearance can boost morale.
Besides, for someone who can pass the first test so quickly, how bad can his strength be?
Thinking of this, someone finally couldn't sit still, and two young men stood up at the same time, obviously preparing to strike up a conversation with Valencia.
Unfortunately, they were all a step too late. Before they took action, a young woman wearing a gauze dress and a dancer's outfit had already walked up to Valencia, along with two companions who were also young women.
"Hello."
The woman dressed as a dancer greeted Valencia generously:
"Are you interested in joining my team? I am Jacqueline, a candidate in the command department, and I plan to develop into a morale support officer in the future.
I'm attracted to your beauty. If you can join the team, I guarantee you can pass the second level of assessment smoothly.
Because the test questions I got do not require much force, but focus more on social and conversational skills. Your joining will definitely make us even more powerful.
Of course, if you are also in the command line, I can only express my regret. "
"Is morale guaranteed by the official command system..."
Valencia looked at Jacqueline thoughtfully and nodded secretly.
Indeed, this dancer girl should have a good figure, good looks, and be very confident. She is the kind of person who is suitable to stand on the stage and become an idol.
Jacqueline's two female companions were obviously much worse than her. They seemed to be from the logistics department, one was a medical staff, and the other looked like an alchemist.
They must have chosen to follow Jacqueline because they were attracted by the test questions that Jacqueline said did not require much force.
If Valencia also joins, not only will there be another beautiful girl with temperament in the team, but it will also make up for the team's only shortcoming...the lack of force.
It seems like a good choice, but...
"Feel sorry."
Valencia chose to refuse.
Chapter 76 The female knight became a leftover woman
Valencia is relatively clear about the position of morale assurance officer.
Although Zhanzheng Academy students who are developing in this direction still belong to the command department, the logistics department also has many courses that they need to practice.
They are also the most important part of the non-noble students in the command department.
As for the work of the morale assurance officer, it covers a very wide range.
According to Valencia's understanding, it is probably a combination of positions such as a singer idol, a military officer, and a psychological counselor in the military.
Morale assurance officers will use various methods, including singing, dancing, speeches, and heart-to-heart talks, to help soldiers solve various ideological confusions and keep the army's morale high.
Although in theory, the position of morale support officer has no requirements for personal combat prowess, most excellent morale support officers will practice some auxiliary or healing spells.
The best morale guarantee officers can even combine auxiliary spells with singing and dancing. Just like the plot of some song-selling animations in Valencia's previous life, a song and dance before the war can double the combat power of the soldiers.
In some extreme cases, the morale support officer will even regard himself as a prize, allowing soldiers to fight bravely when they are most desperate.
Because of the nature of this job, morale assurance officers are usually held by young and beautiful girls. Male morale assurance officers are basically as rare as the golden light in the card pool.
Most beautiful civilian girls actually aspire to this position, because the morale assurance officer is also a formal officer of the Kingdom of France and can receive rewards after winning battles.
In addition, this position rarely requires people to rush to the front line in person, and the survival rate is very high. The probability of a beautiful girl making a successful career as a morale officer and becoming a noble is much higher than that of a male officer.
But not all beautiful girls are good at socializing, singing and dancing. Sometimes, in order to make their work go smoothly, morale assurance officers who are not talented enough will use their beauty as a tool, or even become a shared lover.
In Valencia's impression, when her mother and father quarreled when she was a child, she would often put her hands on her hips and curse: You went to hang out with the morale assurance officer again, right?
Valencia, the fox-like morale officer her mother calls her, has actually met her father several times. She is indeed a charming woman who is particularly good at capturing the hearts of men.
However, according to Valencia's secret observation, the morale assurance officer and her father should have nothing to do with each other. They are just comrades-in-arms.
It's just that due to occupational diseases, the charming auntie, the morale protection officer, behaves like a flirt when talking to any man. It's normal for her to be misunderstood.
This is also the main reason why Valencia rejected the dancer Jacqueline.
Perhaps the test questions Jacqueline got did not require much force, but there was a high probability that team members would need to sacrifice their beauty to seduce men, so Jacqueline would give priority to appearance when recruiting team members.
And it is absolutely impossible for Valencia to actively seduce a man.
"That's it...that's a pity."
Regarding Valencia's rejection, Jacqueline not only expressed regret on her lips, but her eyes were indeed regretful, and she also had a sense of unwillingness and unwillingness to give up.
But she also understood that it would not work to stalk her when they first met, so she pretended to be generous and smiled, and her attitude was still very friendly:
"But I still hope you can join my team... Well, I will stay at the Marant Hotel in the south of the city these days. If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time."
"no problem."
Valencia smiled and nodded, she would still say this in a scene.
After the recruitment of Valencia failed, Jacqueline looked around in the tavern for a while, but it seemed that she could not find anyone with attractive looks. She left with two team members not long after.
Several men who originally planned to come to chat with Valencia also sat back.
From the conversation between Valensa and Jacqueline just now, it is not difficult to tell that Valencia should be a top soldier, and so are the men. They originally planned to find a beautiful captain.
As for the real command candidates in the tavern, none of them acted rashly. Some people who were more worried even gave Valencia a pass from the beginning, and it was impossible to recruit her.
Because no matter how strong Valencia is, she is too beautiful... In a team dominated by young men, it is easy to cause jealousy and discord, which is very detrimental to the newly formed team.
So Valencia sat alone in the corner of the tavern, drinking milk tea silently, and witnessed the successful recruitment of several teams.
It is difficult to tell in a short period of time whether the talents of those in the command and logistics departments are excellent, but all the top soldiers who are proactively approached for recruitment have one thing in common...Pearl level.
Of course, no one present took action, and no one wore an adventurer badge with a level mark. Those pearl-level people all claimed themselves, and maybe some people were just bragging.
However, most top soldiers would not do such a thing. Bragging about one's own strength is only a temporary favor, but in a real battle, it may cause the captain to make wrong judgments, leading to a fatal crisis... Even if he is lucky enough to survive the danger, , will also die in society, and will not be able to hold up one's head for a long time.
In addition, the first test of the Advanced Weapon System involves hunting Pearl-level monsters alone. People who can pass the test so quickly, even if they do not have Pearl-level, should be like Valencia, who can use some powerful equipment and secret skills to have Pearl-level. actual combat power.
Seeing her colleagues being recruited one by one, but no one cared about her, Valencia was actually a little anxious.
She passed the first level so quickly and rushed to the assembly point. Wasn't it because she wanted to find a good team to hug her?
Why don't you invite me if I am so beautiful?
But it's useless to be anxious, and Valencia knows that the more anxious she is at this time, the less anxious she can be, so there are not many people in the tavern, and she has become the only remaining girl, and she still maintains the elegance of a young lady. The temperament is slowly drinking milk tea.
wow.
Seeing that the time was approaching midnight, the door curtain of the tavern rang again, and a group of four people who seemed to have formed a team walked in.
The three people at the back should all be candidates for the elite military department, two men and one woman, all wearing swords, and their appearance and clothing are very distinctive.
As for the leader, he clearly looked like a nobleman. He was wearing an expensive brocade robe and a thin cloak on his back. He had silver hair and red eyes. He was very handsome.
Several top soldiers in the tavern who had rejected other recruitments stood up almost at the same time. They should have been waiting for this team.
"Master Yulian..."
The noble young master with silver hair and red eyes seems to be very popular, and the top soldiers are surrounding him and recommending themselves.
Even Valencia's eyes were locked on the silver-haired and red-eyed noble prince, with a look of disbelief on her astonished face and a slightly open mouth.
She...why is she here?
Chapter 77 Childhood sweethearts dropped from heaven
Although the silver-haired and red-eyed Mr. Yulian looks very handsome, and he is the kind of person who would have a group of young girls rushing to date him if he waved, but Valencia knew that this was actually all nonsense.
Because this Young Master Yulian is actually a great beauty, and Valencia's childhood sweetheart, the eldest lady of the Brittania family.
