Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 896: Chapter 112: The Church Knight Legion and Divine Chosen Level Armor Officially Unveiled (Part 2)

And with the establishment of Flash Spear City, the significance of this legion has become increasingly prominent.

After all, Flash Spear City is located on the vast plains to the west of the territory, and according to the effect of Heaven’s Lance, it will attract one Chaos Legion after another to arrive nearby, roaming these plains.

With this Church Knight Order patrolling, it will surely help him proactively clear out many enemies.

The most important thing is that this legion is free, requiring almost no maintenance costs from Su Li. If there are more enemies, Su Li can still dispatch 1 to 2 squadrons of High-level Attendants, responding to Olein’s call, and thus expand the scale of this legion to over 2000 people.

people, that’s already a standard legion size in the Old World.

In scenarios not involving decisive battles with large forces like the Green Dragon, a legion of 2000 is sufficient to handle most situations and crush all enemies.

Then Su Li recalled something and said, ”That being the case, our territory’s Church Knight Order size is still somewhat insufficient. Besides the two Knight Orders stationed by the Sun Goddess Church in our territory, other Divine Spirits don’t have any Knight Orders here?”

Hilude nodded, then smiled and patted Su Li’s right hand, saying, ”My Lord, after all, our territory has been established for only a short time, and there are still many shortcomings and areas needing development. Having two Knight Orders is already quite remarkable. Perhaps in many other churches, they’ve never even heard of our territory’s name.”

”However, even so, our territory still hosts some Orders from other churches. For example, the Healing and Compassion Goddess · Shalya Church has a [Mercy Attendant Corps] in our territory, mainly composed of battle orphans, and is also responsible for taking in orphans, caring for the disabled, and providing end-of-life care. It’s said they often collaborate with the White Dove Knight Order to establish shelters in slums, and their members are required to swear to abandon secular property.”

”White Dove Knight Order?” Su Li raised his eyebrows and asked, ”Shalya’s Knight Order?”

”Yes, it’s one of the renowned Hospital Knight Orders. Their main duty is to protect medical teams from plunder. The Knights are equipped with Silver Plate Armor and Kite Shields, typically wielding a Blunt-headed Nail Hammer to avoid causing fatal injuries, symbolizing the protection of life rather than its end. They usually set up outposts along lively trade routes to ensure the safe transport of medical supplies. I believe the next most likely Knight Order to be attracted to our territory would be the White Dove Knight Order. As long as our territory’s trade routes become prosperous and a large amount of medical supplies are transported, they will actively establish outposts, fortresses, or even bases along these commercial routes.”

”However, despite this, what makes the White Dove Knight Order most popular among Knight Lords is their way of combat. With them on the battlefield, the survival rate of allied soldiers significantly increases. Simultaneously, opponents are more likely to be knocked unconscious rather than fatally wounded. Mercenaries love to participate in battles alongside armies where the White Dove Knight Order is present, picking up unconscious prisoners on the battlefield. With a bit of treatment, they can survive and be sold at a good price.”

Su Li asked with a smile, ”Doesn’t that mean with the presence of the White Dove Knight Order, it’s quite easy to form a Free People’s Corps?”

”Theoretically, that’s indeed the case. The White Dove Knight Order is renowned in this regard,” Hilude replied with a smile.

Curious, Su Li asked, ”Apart from the Mercy Attendant Corps, do we have other Orders in our territory?”

”Of course, there are several, such as the four Orders of the Dawn Church.” As the Chief Steward of the territory, Hilude was quite knowledgeable about military affairs: ”However, the number of people in each Order is relatively small and they are not mainly known for their martial prowess. The only noteworthy one is the Order of Righteous Fury, with about 10 Transcendents and 30 armed believers.”

”On par with them is the Mole Church’s Shroud Order, roughly similar in size with about forty members. If we can attract Mole’s Black Guards, the influence of Mole’s followers in our territory will further increase.”

”The Shroud Order.” Su Li had an impression of this Order and asked, ”Are they the ones dealing with the previous corpses in the territory? How’s the progress going?”

”Progress is smooth; it seems they’ll manage to deal with at least half by this summer.”

That progress was indeed commendable, and Su Li proceeded to instruct, ”Have them speed up. I plan to lead the troops to a trip east of the Storm Shadow Fortress to clear out the nests of the Anaric Giant Spiders.”

This intelligence served as the last reminder for the month, originally scheduled to be addressed at the beginning of the month, but it was delayed by a cycle due to the Radiant Festival.

Now that the Radiant Festival is over, it’s time to take action.

The key is that winning this war and massively killing the Anaric Giant Spiders, revered as Divine Spirits by goblins and other creatures, will significantly demoralize the goblins and goblins when commanding troops to attack the Green Skins in the future.

In the eyes of these chirping monsters, Su Li is the most dreadful Demon, a terrifying Godslayer.

If combined with his great standard-bearer, making his figure appear particularly large and terrifying, in the eyes of these goblins, he would be the shadow of a terrifying Demon God, the vermillion Demon God seated high atop the Storm Shadow Fortress, with blood-red eyes authoritatively and terrifyingly watching over the East.
