"Here's here!" The sharp-eyed people in the crowd had already shouted out first.

Today is the day when the regiment commander and other elites return. Everyone gathers at the gate of the station. Whether it is a combatant or a non-combatant, everyone has expectations on their faces, and their eyes reveal pride, pride, excitement and worship.

The earth began to tremble slightly, and the crowd began to cheer. The first thing I saw was a row of heavy armored knights riding in earthy yellow ground and wearing magic armor, followed by several velocity knights riding in blue wind dragons, and on both sides were dozens of warriors wearing various magic armors with big swords on their backs.

Further inward are spellcaster professions that represent different colors in each system. At the end of the team are dozens of archer and assassination professions in leather or cloth armor.

At the center of the team is Reston, like a pearl embedded in the middle of the team, about forty years old.

I saw that he had a majestic figure, bronze skin, clear and deep facial features, and his dark and deep ice eyes looked wild and unrestrained, evil and sexy.

The whole person exuded a kingly aura that was terrifying the world, with a slutty smile on the corner of his mouth. His handsome face was full of confidence, he was wearing a set of silver-gray magic leather armor, and two long swords of different styles hung around his waist. He rode on the back of a huge thunder beast, and there were a few boxes behind him.

It is said that these two swords and the thunder beast are both very well-known, and are one of the spoils obtained in the Yege Forest.

In the Ashes Station Service Hall.

"Who will report our losses some time ago, and the situation in the group now?" Reston sat at the top of the meeting room, with a cold face and stroking the sword body. More than 200 people in the audience were silent.

"Ahem, I'll do it." Lao Zheng saw that no one spoke, so he stood up and said, "Everyone already knew that Chilang took advantage of our weakness some time ago and raided our station.

Two hundred and seventeen people died on the spot, and thirty-nine people died of serious injuries; one hundred and sixty-two people who were seriously injured and disabled, and the rest of them had almost recovered. In fact, there were 309 remaining combatants in the regiment, but each of them was good.

Considering that the regiment's combat personnel were seriously insufficient, I selected 213 children with good talent from the slums in the city to become their future combat power."

"Very good, Lao Zheng, you did a good job. We have gained a lot in Yege Forest this time. Although the Temple of Goddess of Life I found is another pseudo-sanctuary, the things inside are still very rich. We have a lot of weapons and equipment, and there are some other good things, hehe.

Fortunately, the other mercenary groups suffered a lot of losses and would not attack us during this period. Fortunately, Lao Zheng, you took away all the children with the best qualifications in advance. Now the people in other groups must be so angry, hahaha!"

Reston looked at everyone while stroking the sword, and then continued, "Wait, let me allocate it according to everyone's needs." Then, his tone became low.

"Hey... Although I got a lot of gains this time,... I lost a lot of elites. Three hundred people went out, but only two hundred and twenty people came back..."

"I said why does it seem like many people don't see it? Sure enough... the next time we will mainly rest and recuperate, digest this batch of treasures well, and pull up the next generation of talents. My idea is that those who come back alive will find a few disciples who are suitable for them and cultivate them into the mainstay of our ashes."

"And according to the current situation, there were only more than half of the elite soldiers of the thousand, and they had to collect another batch of children, but good qualifications were almost divided by major mercenary groups. So, you can quickly notify the sub-sites in other regions and let them wave to the children in their location immediately, the more the better." Reston immediately called an assistant, wrote down a few orders, and the assistant ran away.

"I decided to shrink our power. This time, it is because we are too scattered and developed too fast that we have the opportunity to take advantage of. In the future, we will only station in medium and large towns, and the service points of all small towns will be cancelled. Several points will be concentrated on development, and each point will be formed into a horn and echo each other in order to support each other." Reston made a decisive decision.

"Yeah! Our ideas coincide. Due to the stability of the whole year, our group's defense is very relaxed, which is also one of the reasons for the heavy losses. So I think everyone will take on some small tasks to hone their combat power in the future." Lao Zheng flipped over the notebook in his hand.

"Okay, let's go here first today. Everyone is tired, so have a good rest. Tomorrow, I will ask all the children to gather at the martial arts venue to meet. If you have the right one, please take it. I will also see if there are any good talents for sword dancers. It's time to find someone to inherit my mantle."

The next day, the martial arts performance was crowded with people. All the students got up early today, wearing brand new clothes, straightening their backbones so that they could look a little more energetic.

"Wait for the person in charge of each department, the children's talent chart and the test results from the previous period will be sent to everyone. Let's go to their respective departments to see if there are any suitable candidates. If you think children from other departments can also follow your path, please ask them if they are willing to change their careers. Remember not to be too fierce and scare the children. Hahaha." Reston said to everyone with a laugh, taking the lead in moving towards the Warrior Department.

"Gray, do you have any special materials for the kids in the Warrior Department? I want to find a child who can learn from me." Reston took the order handed over by Gray, and asked the person in charge of the Warrior Department, a big man full of muscles.

"The children the deputy commander recruited this time are mainly professions of spell casters and long-range strikes, and they are not many of them in melee combat. However, the selected ones are all very talented. These children are all born warriors, and they are all very good. You can see for yourself. There are only three that meet your standards." Gray said with a smile. Gray was very satisfied with these twelve children.

Reston's profession is a sword dancer. Because he has cultivated the wind attribute fighting spirit and his dodging ability has greatly enhanced, he has advanced to the wind sword dancer. Now Reston is almost fifty years old. He still has a lot of time for him who has just broken through level 9 and reached the legendary level, but he wants to cultivate an excellent disciple before becoming a saint, hand over the mercenary group to him and Lao Zheng, so that he can concentrate on pursuing the ultimate of martial arts.

"Hello everyone, I believe everyone should know who I am. I want to choose a child to learn from me, but everyone is excellent, so I want to understand everyone's abilities. Here is a small test so that I can know who is more suitable to learn my skills."

Reston took out two long swords from his bag and stroked the sword body with a gentle expression. "These are two swords I used to use. This sword is called Feng Ji. I killed a wind elemental creature when I broke through level 6 and broke through level 7, using the elemental crystals left behind it to mix some other magic metals."

While slowly brushing the spine of the blue translucent long sword, another one was drawn out, with an exaggerated shape with teeth on both sides of the blade, without guards, like a silver-gray long sword with the bones of some creatures.

"This is made from the spine of the Sabertooth Shark King, called Shark King. The biggest feature is its strength and sharpness. This Sabertooth Shark King is also the murderer who killed my mentor. It took me three years to avenge my mentor and finally took its spine as another sword for me, which was also to commemorate my mentor. Now that I have advanced and have obtained a sword that is more suitable for me again. It is a waste to stay with me." Reston suddenly lifted the two swords upwards, and the two swords were spinning, and inserted into the ground in an "x" shape.

"Everyone will take turns using these two swords to compete with me. I will hand them over to those I think are suitable."

When everyone heard that the sword used by the regiment commander wanted to give it to someone, they were immediately excited. A student who looked relatively strong immediately stepped out, bowed to the regiment commander, and then drew up his two swords.

"Use the skills you have learned during this period to attack me." The commander smiled.

"Don't use all your strength to slash this move. Leave three-pointers to prevent the enemy from dodging. You can also change your moves, and the same is true for other attacks. If the assault moves are too big, the flaws will be very large. If you want to combo attacks the enemy faster, you must be accurate."

While dodging the attack, Reston pointed out the inappropriate points. He suddenly stopped and pulled out the iron sword from the weapon stand next to him, "Okay, I'll attack below, you can defend, feel it."

Reston slowly walked towards the student with a sword. The student suddenly felt that a mountain was slowly pressing down on him at this time, and cold sweat instantly covered his face. Until Reston slowly put the sword on his neck, he did not make any evasion or defense posture.

"It's not bad. The pressure of the legendary powerhouse is not so easy to bear. Fortunately, I didn't fall down and my will is quite firm. Okay, let's go next." Reston put down his iron sword, stretched out his hand to touch the child's head, and said with a smile.

The remaining students took turns to Reston to fight, but none of them could fight back under Reston's momentum. Reston seemed not very satisfied with this result, until there were only the last three, and the most likely three, Grett arranged them at the end, just to let Reston give some good advice to the other children.

The last three children are excellent in terms of talent and character, and are willing to endure hardships. If there is no accident, they will definitely be the leader of the mercenary group in the future.
