The Exorcist Boy: The Book of Conviction

Chapter 107 The Marshal's Responsibility

"Snow, do you know the biggest difference between being an apostle, a marshal and an exorcist?"

On the carriage, Marshal Ilka was sitting in the carriage, kindly guiding Snow who was sitting upright like a schoolboy.

"It should be the responsibility!"

Si Nuo sat there and suddenly had an idea.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility! The church has only set up five marshal seats. Strength is one aspect, but more needs to be borne by them."

"Oh! This is really... Your point of view is really eye-catching."

The old marshal seemed very satisfied with Snow's performance of "shameless whoring and stealing". He didn't expect the child in front of him to be able to see it so thoroughly.

(It's okay! Unfortunately, I can't spin silk...)
Compared with ordinary executors and exorcists, marshals participate in battles as high-end decision makers in many cases.

They need to shoulder more, and they also need to think more. After the general exorcists release tasks during combat, they often come into contact with tasks such as destroying demons or recovering 【INNOCENCE】.

So they just need firm execution.

But marshals are different. In many cases, they initiate tasks as decision makers, and at the same time, they also take on the task of finding qualified new students.

Marshal Ilka and another Marshal Tiedor, the two elders of the last era of the church, are particularly persistent in this regard.

Because they know that the fresh blood of qualified individuals represents the foundation of the future of the Black Order.

It's just that compared to Marshal Ilka, Marshal Tiedor has a bit more personality, is obsessed with his hobbies (painting, outings), and likes to act alone.

On the other hand, Marshal Claude is relatively young, so he is a little inexperienced, and sometimes he has to put more effort into the mission of the Marshal of the church.

Marshal Zocalo is similar, he himself is even more restrained, he is a war madman who is easy to get on top of, and he is extremely bad at using his brain.

At the same time, his criminal record is also very problematic. This guy turned out to be a death row prisoner who needed to be handcuffed with iron balls.

As for the last Marshal Kuros... Forget it, this scumbag has nothing to say, just pass it!

"As a marshal, while looking for new qualified candidates, we must also learn to look at things with a higher overall perspective.

And sometimes, helpless choices are unavoidable, such as... sacrifice. "

Having said that, Marshal Ilka's expression turned slightly dark.

"After you have experienced these in the future, you will understand, but right now you need to understand some other things."

After speaking, Marshal Ilka moved a thick stack of materials from behind.

"To be honest, I really want to complain about the Black Order, after all, even the Marshal can't avoid having to do some paperwork.

Maybe that Kuros escaped because of these trivial matters. "

(No, Marshal, you definitely misunderstood that guy, Kouros is just a simple, rotten bastard who eats, drinks, whoring, gambling, and gambling.)
Snow took over the thick stack of materials, which was one of the general tasks that the Marshal had to deal with daily.

Sometimes, the war room at the headquarters of the Black Order cannot fully coordinate all intelligence and missions.

Search team members traveling around the world pass thousands of messages back every day.

Distinguishing and screening this information is an extremely difficult task. At the same time, the theoretical staff in the war room have no relevant field combat experience.

So that sometimes there will be some mistakes in the work and judgment of the task.

And at this time it is the turn of the Marshal to play, their views and experience are particularly important in the actual judgment of [INNOCENCE] and the devil.

At the same time, they are also in charge of coordinating and assigning tasks to exorcists in some sections, and many search team members will also be directly responsible for them.

"It looks like the marshal is really tired."

Snow complained silently while analyzing the thick stack of reports above.

(Will-o'-the-wisps found at Wellington's North Hills mine...needs further investigation.)
(The northern Ramos Mountains geographical survey team is missing... expedited)
(There is a moving stone statue in the northern mountain range... I found traces of demons, [INNOCENCE] has a very high probability, please call an exorcist.)
Snow, who just read dozens of materials, was dizzy. I really don't know how Marshal Ilka persisted for so long?

And that Kuros...how can he stay in that position so leisurely by eating, drinking, whoring, gambling and smoking every day?
No wonder the church and the people in the central hall always wanted to catch this guy back.

"The marshal not only has to consider combat issues, but also coordinates the situation of his own troops. In fact, that kid Sokaro is very ordinary."

Marshal Ilka sat across from him, looking extremely relaxed.

Snow knew that Marshal Zocalo was a man with exaggerated jagged teeth and dark skin, and he was a full-fledged fighter.

He is the absolute fighting faction in the Black Order, and his combat power is quite good. A double-sided machete dances vigorously, and he cuts down many demons.

The only regret is that this guy is not willing to use his brain, and his favorite things are "chop hack" and "chop chop chop".

"This one……"

Snow handed over the information that might involve 【INNOCENCE】. Marshal Ilka took it, looked at it carefully, and continued to explain to Snow.

"The highest priority of the task is, the companion's help signal, the recovery of [INNOCENCE], the treatment of civilians, and the destruction of demons..."

So [INNOCENCE] should be ranked in front of civilians?

Although it seemed a little unreasonable and indifferent, Snow knew that this was the most correct sorting.

"Tjeri, let the support troops behind take over the communications of the scouts over there! At the same time, send another group of people over to see what's going on.

The team modified the patrol route and approached the northern mountains. "

After thinking for a few seconds, Marshal Ilka made a decision.

"learn."

The coachman who was driving in the front row spoke little, but he had excellent execution ability. As the fifth coachman of the marshal, he was undoubtedly the best compared to the previous ones.

Soon, under the control of the opponent's reins, the six tall horses began to turn around.

At the same time, the support troops following behind also began to send out signals.

The team with Marshal Ilka at the core began to change direction and adjust the focus of operations.

Because the information is never absolutely correct, according to the previous ratio, the correct rate of the information related to [INNOCENCE] sent back by search teammates should be between 3% and 5%.

That is to say, among the 100 reports of “[INNOCENCE] may exist”, only 3~5 are truly accurate.

But as a marshal, you can't give up the possibility of believing that the information is correct just because the probability is extremely low.

That's why Marshal Ilka ordered to move his team to the location, but before getting accurate information, there was no need to rush there, but to advance slowly.

Taking itself as the radiation area, while narrowing the distance between the two places, it is dealing with the surrounding places where there may be demons.

“[INNOCENCE] is certainly important, but the essence of our exorcists is to protect human beings, if we can do more, we must do more.”

Marshal Ilka put his finger on the map, and then slowly swept over the route they were about to advance.

The search team members of each team spread out in a grid pattern, checking nearby demon traces, and at the same time predicting the possibility of where demons will be born.

Before the formal information transmission, they pushed forward steadily while looking for opportunities to deal with the demons that might be hidden along the route.

After all, the source of the devil is easy to guess. As long as there are abnormal deaths in a certain area, it means that the devil has a higher probability of lurking there.

Although how to distinguish them is a difficult problem, but that is only for ordinary human beings.

Because discovering the demons of the exorcist of the sect, they will definitely not be able to bear the murderous desire in their hearts.

This is an instruction implanted by the earl in their bodies, and its priority is far higher than instinct.

What's more, Marshal Ilka also carried a batch of [INNOCENCE] with him, and he was an important figure in the Black Order.

No demon can resist this double thrill.

The clothing symbol of the exorcist, as well as his own logo, have been maximized on the body of Marshal Ilka.

As long as it was night and there were demons hiding nearby, they would definitely come and attack them.

Using himself as a bait is also one of the most commonly used methods by Marshal Ilka at the moment.

"But what if a shark is caught?"

Snow's worries are not unreasonable. The Marshal has a heavy responsibility and carries a certain amount of [INNOCENCE] with him. It is difficult not to attract the attention of the Earl of the Millennium.

The opponent can definitely mobilize larger-scale demons to attack them.

You must know that with the current value of the Marshal, even sacrificing one would be an unbearable blow to the Black Order.

"That's why there are search troops on the periphery as eyes!"

Marshal Ilka explained to him in detail, how could the Black Order not think of what Snow could think of?
The marshal never fights alone, and the complete logistics support system is just an important part of ensuring their safety.

In order to snipe and kill a Marshal-level existence, the demons must gather on a huge scale, and in the process, it is difficult to avoid the search troops acting as eyeliners.

At the same time, the marshal's whereabouts have always been the sect's secret, apart from the directly subordinate combat system, even the higher-ranking cardinals cannot know.

What's more, there are many whereabouts of the Marshal, and they have to be changed at any time depending on the situation, which is basically random.

"Of course, this does not mean that we will not encounter crises at all, but this is a matter of course, after all, it is a war!
If you give up these more important things just because you are worried about your own safety, wouldn't it become a waste of food because of choking. "

Marshal Ilka said with a smile, he hoped that Snow could understand that the dangers associated with the marshal were far higher than that of ordinary exorcists.

But the value they create in all aspects is also greater.

As he said before, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, but correspondingly, the greater the danger.

For so many years, the attack on the Marshal of the Black Order is not a rare incident. Their footprints are all over the world, and demons are lurking in every corner. There will always be a day when they bump into them by chance.

But this complete coordinated combat system was developed precisely to deal with this situation.

As long as they can hold on, support will come soon.

"Unless... the Earl of the Millennium personally took action, but the probability of this is very low."

"Earl of the Millennium?"

After Snow thought for a while, he expressed his doubts to the old marshal again.

"I was also there at the Dawn Project. Could it be that the Earl of Millennium is really that troublesome?"

"It's not just tricky!"

The old marshal sighed deeply, and then he uttered a piece of information that surprised Snow.

"On the day of the Dawn Project, I suspect that the three of us joined forces, and even failed to make the Earl exert his full strength.

He has always performed with ease, and his state seems to be very average, as if he is too lazy to play against us. "

Marshal Ilka recalled the day when they attacked and defended each other. The Earl of the Millennium blocked the full strength of the three of them with just one hand.

Although they also posed a certain threat to the earl in the subsequent battles, the old marshal always felt that the other party was performing.

And later, regarding Rhine's final outcome and behind-the-scenes conspiracy, the old marshal did strengthen his guess.

"If Kuros was here, maybe the results would be more lucrative."

The old marshal sighed softly, and had to admit that this guy with the most personality was also the best guy among the five of them.

"Marshal, the latest information has confirmed the existence of [INNOCENCE] in the northern mountain range.

The search team who went there to support them has successfully obtained the Crystal of God, but they are currently unable to get rid of the devil's pursuit. "

"Understood, then proceed according to the plan and speed up,"

After confirming the most accurate information, the troops belonging to the marshal began to change in an orderly manner, and the arrow formation with the marshal's carriage as the core began to speed up.

They need to reach their destination as quickly as possible, and they have experienced this kind of thing many times, so the performance of the group seems to be orderly.

This is a great learning opportunity too!
Snow couldn't help secretly looking forward to it, after all, it was the first time he was integrated into the Marshal's independent combat system...

"When the bait is added, the fish will enter the net."

On a hillside far away from them, Rhodes sat on the pumpkin umbrella Reynolds, watching the convoy of arrows galloping towards the northern mountains.

"That's good. Jiametto's information is fairly accurate, but it's a pity that it can only be used once. Then the church will be ready."

Under Rhodes, the Earl of Millennium was lying in a comfortable black carriage, continuing to knit his sweater.

Tiqi sat in front and was in charge of driving, but it seemed that his technique was a little rusty.

"By the way, where did Gasdeby and Skinn go?"

Rhodes looked around curiously, but he didn't find them. Didn't they agree to act together?
"I don't know, maybe I went somewhere to play."

Tiqi didn't care either. After watching the convoy slowly disappearing in the distance, he also lightly shook the reins and steered the horses to follow.

"Rod..."

"Huh? What's the matter, Tiki?"

"Sing a song and listen."

(I can't stand it anymore, this chapter should be the end of today.)
　(Thank you for the reward of one thousand in the name of Jinwei)
　　The killing of the TV version of the marshal is separated from the original manga, and the manga only gives Marshal Ilka a small storyboard, strictly speaking, it is not even a passer-by.

　　At the same time, the original TV animation is placed in the online article, which is logically the flaw in the flaw, (the marshal brought so many crystals and was arrested), so I can only make up for the setting by scribbling.
