Dark Eldar

"Attention! All troops, attack! All troops, attack!" Ludar suddenly issued the order after dinner!

Everyone hurriedly packed their belongings. Some of the half-human monsters even set up tents. (The "half-humans" rested earlier than the humans.)

"Hurry! We half-humans shouldn't hold you back!" urged the half-human battalion commander, "Kalong." He was a hybrid of a human and a dragon, and it was estimated that his ancestors had some connection with the dragon race. Right now, everyone was in a panic and didn't have time to study Kalong.

Led by the elf Irete, the "tenacious human soldiers" quickly prepared their equipment, lined up, and were ready to set off!

"Let's go! Let's go! Don't wait! Nobody waits for anyone! Those who arrive on time will each receive a 1G reward!" Ludar was even more adept at using both carrot and stick tactics!

"1G! Wow! Gold coins!" the orc roared! The orcs had long coveted money... (Orcs can't save money; they have huge appetites).

The half-human monsters were even more excited when they heard about the gold coin reward. 1G was equivalent to a year's worth of their "military pay"!

The troops marched in a massive, unstoppable charge! The "DK" units, perfectly aligned and moving in parallel lines, led the way, tasked with clearing "roadblocks" and "traps"! (This had been explained to them beforehand by Luddar.)

Dak followed in stealthily. Seeing everyone's enthusiasm for the battle, he felt a little excited! He admired Ludar's military strategy (effectively mobilizing the soldiers' enthusiasm).

Wild monsters occasionally roam at night! Jungle wolves, succubi, and all sorts of other creatures... They're "unlucky." They're just the ones who get "crushed" by the crazed "Grudin" soldiers... They don't even have a chance to fight back... In the group, the lucky ones manage to find a "wolf pelt" and quickly put it in their backpacks, afraid of being looted.

"Keep going, let's not wait for each other!" Ludar on his warhorse kept up without much effort. Most of the others could only watch with envy, wondering why. Mounts were "not common" even in Gludin. Perhaps Gludin was too underdeveloped; they might not even be around by the time they reached Kent.

Ludal was reluctant to release the "giant serpent" (Pebbsian Viper) from his backpack! It was his "blue" treasure. He feared it would be lost in battle. (Pebbsian Viper! A rare mount. Low drop rate; Ludal painstakingly "captured" it in his youth. While mounted, ground movement speed increases by 300; special effect: when excited, it can devour any wild monster below level 40...)

Ludar dared not flaunt his wealth, even though they were soul-bound. He feared Dark would become suspicious if he saw it. (Those who could obtain the "Viper" mount were heroes like Loki—determined and persistent! Ludar, on the other hand, was perceived by everyone as greedy, subservient, and a sycophant...)

Gludin's soldiers marched at several times their usual speed. Those who could fly did so (mutated half-humans). Those who could leap did so (elite monsters, half-humans). Some battalion commanders (such as Kago Bloodrage, the Slayer, and the two-headed dog Lomar) even went so far as to spend a crystal to summon their own warhorses. They weren't after the 1G; they were more expressing their commitment! Ludal hoped they (the middle ranks) would do the same! After all, if the war was won, each person would receive far more than 1G...

Aside from the "flying white horse" of the elf siblings Ilet, no one else in the army possessed a flying mount. (This is confirmed by their astonished expressions as they gazed up at the flying horse! In this other world, there were many types of flying mounts, and the ancient people, upon seeing a flying horse, would only look at it... without being overly surprised.)

"Tap-tap! Tap-tap!" (Sound of flint striking each other)

Someone wanted to light a torch! Ludar stopped them in time!!

"Soldiers! We must advance in the darkness! If we are discovered by the enemy, our entire mission will be in vain!"

"Yes, sir! I was wrong..."

And so, everyone ran non-stop for about 7 hours. Some could fly (winged half-humans), or teleport continuously, and had already arrived ahead of time. They also collected their gold coins. (Luddar kept his word.)

"Thank you, sir! You are so generous. Earning gold coins just by running!" a long-legged half-human said, bowing his head. (Descendant of ancient giants)

"Yes, keep going! Soldiers! Victory is ours!" Ludar encouraged. In that instant, he felt as if he had become two hundred years younger...

"That was the first invasion in this other world! I led a group of young rebels (orc rogues, werewolf killers, DK deserters, etc.) to attack a weak fortress, but we encountered fierce resistance! They weren't willing to 'surrender'! Some werewolves deserted midway (DPS), and the battle lasted for two days and two nights..." Ludal dared not think further. He quickly pulled himself together and quietly counted the number of people. As for the "reward," Ludal gave them all the gold coins as encouragement. Where did this funding come from? Ludal had paid for it out of his own pocket beforehand. If the "Kent Campaign" was won, Ludal would naturally ask Dark for it. If it failed, Ludal would just accept his bad luck... The "military skills" become increasingly "profound" as you progress! This is something Ludal gradually learned and summarized during his early "sieges and captures."

Learning "military" skills wouldn't be difficult for Dark, but the challenge lies in advancing through actual combat. And not the kind of overwhelming battles where the enemy and ourselves are vastly different in strength, but rather hand-to-hand combat where the enemy and ourselves are evenly matched!

Dark is currently at "Military" Level 2. That's already quite an achievement (he's one of the best in his class). He has also experienced "danger" before, and although the "damage" is not on the same level as Ludar's "danger" when he was young, Ludar is far superior in terms of the degree of danger!

Loki's "Military" skill is only level 1; he hasn't experienced any truly brutal "melee" yet! The epic battles Loki participated in, while difficult, saw all the "experience points" going to Elder Schopenhauer and Elder Joseph...
