Within the next three days, this news spread like wildfire throughout the city, causing a significant uproar.
A multitude of people were shocked, spreading the news and the streets were buzzing with discussions about Tina.
For the ordinary residents, they praised Tina, grateful for her elimination of threats for Orleans City, and avenging the innocent lives lost.
On the other hand, people were also worried about the city lord’s reaction, fearful that he might retaliate against Tina. They did not want to hear the news of Tina suddenly dying.
However, the following week in Orleans City was unexpectedly peaceful.
Tina remained in the military camp without a word. The city lord’s manor did not express any stance either.
Both sides kept their banners down and drums quiet, as if the matter had passed.
But Su Yu knew that these were only the beginnings.
Upon completion of the 20th main task, Su Yu received a reward, an accessory — [Explorer’s Arm-guard].
[Explorer’s Arm-guard (Legend)]
+15 Defense
+20 Spell Strength
The Path of Exploration: Killing a unit provides 0.5 Defense (can provide up to 15 Defense).
Note: It can be combined with [Stopwatch] and [Demon’s Grimoire] to form the legendary accessory [Zhongya Hourglass].
The accessory didn’t warrant discussion; Su Yu had taken one step closer to creating [Zhongya Hourglass].
As for the objectives of the plotline.
Opening the [Self-crafted Plotline] module, the completion status of the current three objectives was as follows:
Objective 1: Dissipate Tina’s inner unease and help her regain her confidence. (Progress: 56%)
Objective 2: Help Tina gain the approval of 80% of the Unicorn Knights. (Current Approval: 61.2%)
Objective 3: Help Tina gain the approval of more than 60% of Orleans City’s residents. (Current Approval: 71%)
Tina’s actions in the arena have had wide-reaching effects. Objective 3 is already complete, and Objective 2 is nearing completion.
However, Tina still lacks some confidence, falling short of completing Objective 1.
But Su Yu isn’t worried, he still has five task rounds to train cough, cough, correct, to educate Tina, ensuring she regains her confidence.
After the big arena event ended, Tina took a simple two-day rest to recover.
After her recovery, Su Yu gave her the 21st task:
“[Saintess of Orleans City (21/100)].”
“Task requirements: Follow Tina and learn military knowledge from the military scholar, [Lambert Scarlett].”
“Task rewards: Vary depending on the completion of the task.”
While Tina was the commander of the Knights, personal strength was only one aspect; military literacy was also vitally important. After all, Tina was supposed to lead the troops in battle, so it wouldn’t do to be ignorant about the military.
And [Lambert Scarlett] was the most knowledgeable military scholar in Orleans City known to Su Yu. Having Tina learn from him would certainly be fruitful.
On the third day at ten in the morning, Su Yu and Tina arrived at Wind Spring Street No.10 to visit the resident, Lambert Scarlett.
Lambert Scarlett was a kindly old man in his sixties with a snowy beard. He was once the chief staff member of the previous city lord and was now retired at home.
Confronted with the visit from Tina and Su Yu, upon hearing their purpose, Lambert stroked his beard thoughtfully.
Recently, Tina’s case had caused quite a stir within the city, and he had, of course, heard about it.
As a military scholar, Lambert certainly recognized Tina’s value. Gaining favor with the guardian deity, Tina’s future would undoubtedly be limitless!
But teaching Tina might offend the city lord’s manor
Weighing the pros and cons, Lambert ultimately chose to side with the Empire: “Alright, I’ll take in the student then. But military learning is quite dry. You should consider this in advance.”
“Don’t worry, teacher, I will study hard,” Tina seriously assured.
“Very good!” Lambert took down a book from the bookshelf behind him, “Then let’s start now! The first lesson, the differences among the various types of troops in an army ”
The following week was passed with Tina immersed in learning.
In the morning, Lambert imparted various kinds of military knowledge to Tina.
In the afternoon, Tina studied numerous military books diligently.
In the evening, Su Yu reviewed the day’s content with Tina until dawn.
What’s unexpected was that Tina showed astonishing talent in military learning!
This talent was nothing short of her lineage’s talent!
Tina’s military literacy progressed in leaps and bounds, to the point that after just one week, Lambert Scarlett was left with nothing to teach Tina.
Staring at the last page of [Advanced Combat Formation Atlas], he was at a loss for words: “Tina, I don’t have much more to teach you; you’re ready for the field now. But then again, have you truly grasped everything I have taught you?”
“I have grasped everything, teacher,” Tina answered honestly. “These military knowledge gave me a feeling, that I had grasped them before. Your teachings just helped me to recall these contents, so I have grasped them very quickly.”
“Is that so?” Lambert stroked his beard.
Tina was indeed extraordinary to have caught the eye of the guardian deity.
“Tina, before you graduate, how about we go to the War Chess Association for a ‘War Chess Simulation’? This will also let me measure your current level,” Lambert suggested.
“War Chess Simulation” is a game commonly played by military enthusiasts in the game world.
The War Chess Association has several enormous “Spiritual Power Sand Tables”. Spending Spiritual Energy coins can randomly change the terrain and the environment of the sand table and generate random types of troops.
The two players can control their own troops on the sand table for a simulated confrontation. It is more like real-world RTS games such as “Red Alert”, “Age of Empires”, “Star Craft”, only much simpler.
The level of “War Chess Simulation” is also taken as a measure of an individual’s military strength, because it has been experimentally tested to be more accurate than merely talking about the art of war on paper.
Tina has heard about “War Chess Simulation” during her studies but hasn’t had the chance to experience it first-hand.
On hearing her teacher’s suggestion, her eyes lit up, “Great! Let’s go to the War Chess Association right now.”
For the 22nd round of the task, Su Yu, with Tina and Lambert, arrived at the War Chess Association to observe this round of War Chess Simulation.
They used the highest grade “Spiritual Power Sand Table”, which consumed ten thousand spiritual energy coins per day.
This highest grade sand table also had comprehensive functions.
In addition to conventional troop operations, it could also set traps, create defensive spikes, release miasma, poison the water, and so on. The table had a variety of uses.
The warfare by both sides also had a more specific purpose. Capturing strategic points on the map could give extra attributes to the troops.
Under the manipulation of Tina and Lambert, the armies of both sides, thirty-thousand troops strong, gallivanted on the Spiritual Power Sand Table. There were frontal confrontations, side ambushes, separations and encirclements, surrounding to break out
Tina, not initially familiar with the operating mode, lost three times consecutively.
But as she gradually got accustomed to the rhythm, she started to slowly turn the tide.
By the seventh round of the simulation, Tina managed to stop her losing streak, and finally came to a draw with Lambert through a sniping battle from a defended strategic point.
