Don't call me evil god

Chapter 766: The Great Recruitment (Part )
Outside the royal capital.

Since the great conscription began, this place has become more and more lively day by day.

Citizens of the kingdom of appropriate age will be recruited randomly, with priority given to able-bodied men. There are also a series of relatively complicated rules.

For example, after responding to the call to join the army, his family will enjoy the kingdom's tax benefits and additional subsidies in the following year. If he is unfortunately killed in battle, he can also receive a considerable amount of compensation and pension.

Within three years after each combat experience, you have the right to refuse to participate if you are selected again.

If your family is rich enough, you can also choose to pay border taxes and spend money to cancel your conscription order, etc.

This system has become quite mature and complete today.

For the people of the Kingdom of Reyak, the annual conscription is nothing new, and most of the men of appropriate age who are randomly selected will respond to the call.

Although the risk of going to the border is high, every king will not be stingy in giving subsidies to those who died in battle.

There would not be a tragic situation where the male head of the family died unexpectedly on the battlefield, causing his wife, children and elderly parents to have a hard time making ends meet.

Moreover, with the city walls for defense and the priests of the Church of the Light providing treatment behind the lines, the death rate of ordinary soldiers was actually not that high.

Those who actually have a high mortality rate are those professionals.

Especially the warrior profession, which is the largest in number.

Because they are the main force who will confront monsters head-on and even engage in close combat.

Injuries like missing arms and legs.

With the help of the glow magic, those are not things that cannot be cured.

After resting for a while, you can become full of energy again.

During the defense against the monster red tide, the Church of the Glowing God rarely provided free treatment. Even for those who died in battle, as long as the bodies could be collected and removed from the city walls in time, they could bring the souls of the dead back to the mortal world within the available time frame of the [Resurrection Spell]!
therefore.

Those who responded to the call-up included not only healthy men of appropriate age, but also some "slackers" who were sick, lame, blind, deaf, drooling, etc. They would even take the initiative to apply to join the King's Army during the call-up, and then find a suitable opportunity to turn a minor injury into a serious injury, so as to get free glow magic.

Neither the Kingdom nor the Church of the Glorious God had money and supplies that came from the wind.

The compensation for those who actually died in battle and the materials consumed in casting a large number of divine spells have already put a lot of pressure on the kingdom's finances. Allowing those idlers to sneak into the team is a sheer waste of resources.

The "knights" who lead the flag battle formation will therefore be screened.

This is why the area outside the royal capital becomes bustling on cold winter days.

The nobles who responded to the call arranged for their followers to raise flags with their family crests and shouted loudly:

"Middleton! I want to follow Viscount Middleton's team to report here! The one with the flag with a stick and roses intertwined is it!"

“Viscount Francisco! There are still 100 spots left! Hurry up and line up over there after reporting. There are 10 people in a team. Don’t run around. Those are Baron Durant’s people. Don’t run to the wrong place!!”

"Baron Saddam! There are only 4 top warriors who have just been promoted to level 30 this year. Watch out! There are three circles and a four-leaf clover on the flag. Hurry if you want to come. We will recruit enough people today. No one will be accepted after you are late!"

"..."

It was so noisy that the environment was even more lively than the busiest place in the market in the royal capital's trade district.

The "knights" who lead the battle formations with flags and the militia who respond to the call are a two-way choice.

Each knight will know in advance the number of people he should lead in battle.

In order to ensure that there are no problems with the defense lines they are guarding, the "Knights" hope that the soldiers under their command are excellent soldiers who are strong, brave and fearless, and preferably have some close combat skills and shield usage skills.

Those soldiers who came to the assembly point to respond to the call of the King's Army also hoped that they could find a suitable flag formation, or in other words, a suitable "knight".

When the battle is the most intense and dangerous, whether the monsters that have climbed onto the city walls can be quickly eliminated and the danger eliminated depends on the strength of the professionals in charge of this defense zone.

The stronger the leading professional is, the safer they will definitely be.

Of course, stronger professionals will definitely be assigned to more dangerous and stressful defensive sections, which is as it should be.

Therefore, how to choose a suitable battle formation to join also requires experience and vision.

The most popular ones are those knights whose "strength" and "title" do not quite match.

For example, Baron Saddam who just spoke.

The area he needs to guard is allocated based on the standard of "Baron" nobles, that is, third-level professionals.

But he already possesses the strength of level 4.

Going with him would be much less risky.

The flag representing Baron Saddam was crowded with soldiers who came to sign up.

"Your Excellency! Look at me, my teeth are in great shape, I can eat anything and I don't get diarrhea!"

Baron Saddam looked at the thin man who was shouting.

The other person's face was sallow and he did not look very healthy.

His face suddenly darkened.

"Go away! Get out of the way! You are so small that you are not even as tall as the shield. Go where it's cooler!"

He also needs to select suitable and excellent soldiers who can shoot more monsters directly or destroy them under the city walls, so as to minimize the frequency of fighting with monsters and reduce stress.

Therefore, he must eliminate these guys who might come in to "grab a position" as soon as possible!

"Sir! I have an old set of leather armor. I went to the border once five years ago. I have experience. What do you think of me?"

Another person eagerly requested to be examined.

Baron Saddam stroked his chin and looked at the other man.

It looks pretty similar to that.

But I can't be completely relieved.

"Go, walk to that flag over there with the crossed stick and rose, and then walk back in a straight line so I can see."

The other party took two steps hesitantly, and Baron Saddam immediately discovered the problem:
"Hey? Why are you limping?"

“Ahahaha…” The other party laughed awkwardly and tried to explain: “Your Excellency Baron, I accidentally hurt my leg while working last month, and I haven’t had time to treat it yet…”

"Get out! Next!"

Baron Saddam waved his hand gruffly.

Some of these misfits have never even received a conscription order, or are not native to the royal capital, but poor people from other places who try to fish in troubled waters by taking advantage of the opportunity of being called up by the king's army. As long as they go to the battlefield and survive those few days of fighting, the war allowances and compensation they receive will be enough for them to live a comfortable life for a while, and they can also enjoy free glow magic during the war.

Don't be fooled by the other party's statement that his situation is very trivial.

When he went up to the defense line, it was Baron Saddam himself who was in trouble!

The free medical care provided by the Cult of the Radiant God will only be provided after the monster red tide begins, and they are only responsible for rescuing the seriously injured who are evacuated from the city walls and the dead who have time to be resurrected.

"Minor injuries" like limping are not worth wasting precious opportunities to use divine spells.

Recruiting this kind of guy is equivalent to losing a fighting force!
In the two-way selection process, everyone wants to give priority to recruiting soldiers with excellent qualities, rather than these deceptive things.
