Chapter 16 Imparting
"One, two, stab!"
"Wright, haven't you eaten? Straighten your back!"
"Look straight ahead, hack!"
...
The military camp was filled with the sounds of Lieutenant training the soldiers. Everyone felt quite nervous, and even those subordinates who were mischievous at ordinary times did not jump out at this time, because they knew that this was a matter related to their boss' future. If anything was wrong, they would be finished.
Everyone glanced at the dark green tent at the center of the camp. Finally, the tent opened and a few Captain walked out.
A few clever young men greeted Captain, "Uncle Mont, you are here." "Hello, Captain!"...
However, Captains had something on their mind and ignored the surrounding soldiers who were trying to please them. After greeting each other, they who were not inconsiderate returned to their own ranks.
Sir Will was the last to come out. He went straight to the middle of a group of training soldiers and casually assigned two people. "Go, call Jelson and Locke to the training ground behind the camp." The two immediately understood something and quickly ran to convey the notice.
When the excited young man came in front of Locke and conveyed Sir Will's instructions, Locke knew that he had succeeded. Under the ambiguous gazes of the soldiers around him, Locke went to the training ground behind the camp alone.
The training ground behind the camp was a mysterious place in the hearts of the soldiers. Only people of Captain's level were qualified to come here to train. Moreover, the area here was quite large. The training ground used by just over ten people was almost the same as the hundred people training ground in the camp.
When Locke arrived at the training ground behind the camp, Jelson was already standing at the door. The two of them greeted the soldiers on duty at the door and entered the training ground together. The soldiers on duty seemed to have received the news and said to the two, "Lord Will is already in the training ground."
Jelson was a middle-aged man in his thirties. His military age was on the same level as that of Uncle Joshak. His face was slightly yellow and his physique was very thin. He was quite tall and had a good reputation in the camp. Locke was not surprising that he could be promoted to Captain.
"Brother Locke, I am not surprised that you can be promoted to Captain this time. Everyone in the camp knows your name." Jelson tried to get close to him.
"Brother Jelson, don't tease me. Brother, haven't you been promoted as well? By the way, do you know how our positions are arranged? Which squadron are we going to?" One is the second squadron, and the other is the first squadron. Obviously, they won't stay in their original squadron to be Captain.
"I'm not sure, Brother Locke, but I think the camp will send a notice in the afternoon." Jelson replied.
"En, I think so too. Let's hurry up and leave. Don't let Lord Will wait too long." Locke said.
In fact, according to age, Locke should have called him Uncle Jelson, but when Jelson called him Brother Locke, Locke also called him Brother. After all, the military camp was divided by strength. Wilson was not necessarily stronger than Locke, and his position was also the same as Locke. It was not a big problem for Locke to call him "Brother".
As they spoke, the two of them arrived at the center of the training ground. The training ground was not just a simple training ground. There were many tents and towers on both sides. As for the center, it was a wide open space which was surrounded by fences. Lord Sir Will was currently in the largest area.
Locke and Jelson respectfully walked forward to greet him, "Lord Will." Sir Will replied with an indifferent "Well." Then, Sir Will pointed to the surroundings and said to the two of them, "In the future, come here when you cultivate. I will guide you from time to time. Remember, don't destroy the surrounding equipment. You can use them if you like." There were also many spears, long swords, and even a few sets of armor around the training ground.
"You should have guessed the reason why I called you here today. The specific appointment is coming soon, so I won't say much. Today, I will teach you the Eagle Battle Aura." Sir Will said coldly.
Although Sir Will was a noble knight, as a noble, he indeed should have some distance from the two commoners. However, both of them were both Captain for whom Sir Will still had a faint contempt. Locke was not stupid, so he naturally felt it. Jelson was even more sophisticated. Although he did not understand why Sir Will was like this, the two of them lowered their posture a lot. After all, they looked for his help now.
"Eagle Battle Aura is Legio Aquilae's standard Battling Power. From the head of the army to the first-class soldiers, all cultivate Eagle Battle Aura. This is a precious Battle Aura law that can be cultivated to the rank of a knight. Before cultivating, you must ensure that you can not impart it to others at will!" Sir Will continued.
"Yes!" The two answered in chorus.
"Next, I will teach you how to breathe and condense the Battle Aura seed. Listen..." Sir Will went straight to the point.
Locke spent the entire afternoon under Sir Will's guidance. In the evening, the red glow on the horizon broke through the restraint of the dark clouds, revealing its color. Locke and Jelson were in a horse stance, their chests exposed, and their faces were red as they persevered.
This was the first step to cultivating Battle Aura, condensing Battle Aura seeds. The best age for a knight to cultivate Battle Aura was 12 to 14 years old. Unfortunately, both of them missed it. However, they were both wise and mature people who stood out from hundreds of people to become Captain. Although their qualifications were not the best, they were not bad either.
An ordinary person would need one to three days to condense the Eagle Battle Aura Seed. This had little to do with talent. The main test was the willpower and control of the body. Although they had not clearly informed the specific positions of the two people, no one was willing to be convinced. They were all holding back their strength.
Finally, the moment the sunset disappeared and the red sun fell, Locke let out a loud shout, and his eyes looked ferocious. "Gather!" At this time, a spot of white condensed under Locke's abdomen, the size of a grain of rice.
Perhaps stimulated by Locke, not long after, Jelson also shouted loudly, as if he had used up all his strength, staring at his lower abdomen with wide eyes, and a little white spot quietly appeared.
Sir Will, who had been waiting at the side for a long time, came forward and said, "As expected of someone from the military camp. You should condensed it on the first day. Then have a good rest tonight. From now on, follow the path of the Eagle Battle Aura I taught you. If you have any problems, you can find me on this training ground."
Locke and Jelson looked at each other breathlessly. In the end, they both laughed at the same time. They knew that they had stepped into the circle of the strong from then on. They had also grasped a part of their own fate. Soon, two soldiers standing guard came to support Locke and Jelson back to the camp. It seemed that it was ordered by Sir Will.
After being promoted, they should eat with the Baron. However, it was already past dinner time. Moreover, the two of them did not even know the specific appointment, so they could only go to the military canteen to find something to eat. Chef Cory in the canteen had obviously known the news and had already prepared a big meal for the two of them to enjoy.
Even though it was a feast, it was only white bread and meat soup. This was the first time Locke in his entire life had eaten white bread that was as long as jade was soft and sweet. Compared to black bread that was too hard, white bread was indeed something that only "upper class people" could enjoy. Locke grabbed a large piece of bread and ate it. Jelson's eating style was not much better. Chef Corey was so considerate that he prepared six white bread and a large pot of meat soup for the two of them. The day's hard work disappeared in this meal.
After dinner, the two of them greeted each other and left. At this time, there was nothing in the camp except for the colonel and the torches scattered in the camp. Nearly everyone was in their own tents. Locke slowly walked back to his team's tent. To be honest, he was totally full. Although he had eaten meat before, it was all pork. This was the first time he had eaten such delicious food like today. Fortunately, even after eating so much, it did not have any effect on his Battle Aura seed. Otherwise, he would have collapsed.
As soon as he walked to the tent of his team, Peter, who was keeping watch outside the tent, noticed Locke. He shouted to the tent, "Brother Locke is back!" Immediately, a large group of people rushed out.
A few minutes later, Locke looked at this group of excited people with an ashen face.
They had just dealt 10,000 points of critical damage to Locke. Just imagine how miserable it was for a person who was stuffed to be thrown back and forth by a group of strong men to feel the night.
However, the black night covered Locke's face. The group of people did not notice the anger in their boss' heart, asking excitedly. Looking at the group of silly people, Locke had no choice but to patiently talk about what happened this afternoon.
"Big Brother Locke, since you have mastered Battle Aura, are you stronger than before?" Hans asked.
Locke thought about it and gave an ambiguous answer, "I think so."
