Paradox players' simulation game

The Armor of King Phanes is one of the five inherited relics. The weapon, armor, shield, pendant, and ring are all top-level legendary ones. After they are gathered together and activated through corresponding rituals, they are said to reach the level of holy artifacts.

Irelia still doesn't know how to use the relics. After all, the Purple Spirit Kingdom was developed later, and no one has yet collected all five pieces.

"Maybe I can."

Irelia became a little excited.

[In January 1778, the kingdom was invaded by the sea tribe. Your brother was ordered to fight against the sea tribe and defeated the navy after two months.]

[Your brother's reputation has been raised.]

Seeing the news, Irelia frowned slightly.

Her brother graduated from the Central Holy Spirit College a few years ago with excellent grades. He is now a sixth-rank Earth Knight, with outstanding leadership skills, and his three-dimensional attributes are at the same level as Ivan.

Irelia looked at her own approval rating, which had dropped from over 40% to 36% due to the impact of this battle.

The support rate fluctuates. Now that her brother is doing well in the kingdom, most of the domestic support has been taken away by the other side. If she wants to qualify for the battle for the throne, she can only start from the academy.

After checking the time, Irelia called Ash back to participate in the Freshman Challenge with her.

Previously, Wei Nei won the championship in the freshman challenge, which caused her support rate in the academy to soar. Even many character cards that originally leaned towards her camp eventually sided with Wei Nei.

The Freshman Challenge is an important way to gain support from the college.

“The improvement is so fast.”

Irelia discovered that Ash had broken through to the third-level swordsman a month ago, but when he first entered school, his swordsman level was 0, which shows that his talent in swordsmanship is quite high.

With Ash's help, and the scepter and armor she obtained, she encountered almost no obstacles in winning the challenge.

[You have unlocked the achievement 'Freshman Challenge Champion'. ]

[Felice: Irelia, come out! If you don't say anything, I will go to your house to greet you personally! ]

[Irelia: Your Highness Ferris, is there something wrong? ]

[Felice: What do you think? Who said we shouldn't use Ash's card? You say one thing in public and another in private. You still call yourself a knight!]

[Irelia: I just used the game mechanics reasonably. Besides, you guys should have invited me, right? ]

[Vene: Irelia, give Ash back to me. ]

[Phyllis: Vinay, we should join forces and start over. ]

[Wei Nei: What do you mean? ]

[Felice: Can you take the throne without Ash? ]

【Weinei: Who are you looking down on?】

[Felice: I mean, the first stage is just the beginning. Do you want to take revenge on the Holy See? Can you do it without Ash's card?]

Wei Nei stopped talking. She was still confident of taking the throne, but she had no idea how difficult it would be to take revenge on the Holy See. How strong was the Holy See? The 50,000 troops were just randomly sent out. Who knew how many troops were still inside the Holy See, and how many high-level combat forces they had.

But Wei Nei still planned to give it a try. At most, she could start over next time. Besides, she had a certain understanding of the mechanisms of Iron Pagoda and Magic Archer, so she could just copy Ash's homework.

These are nothing.

The only thing that made Vene unhappy was that Ash was her prince, but now he was with Irelia.

As expected, knights appear to be serious on the surface, but nobody knows what kind of morals they are in private.

"If I had known earlier, I would have..."

Vene thought about the end of the previous simulation. She didn't have the courage to enthrone the prince at first. Now it's too late and she regrets it. If she had done it earlier and the matter was settled, then Phyllis and Irelia wouldn't have the audacity to snatch him away later, right?

......

[Ash applies to join the Royal Guards, do you agree? ]

Irelia ended her fight with the two princesses on the forum, returned to the game, and saw the message pop up.

"To the Royal Horse Guards?"

She thought about it for a moment and agreed to Ash's request.

Because she has not yet become queen, she cannot fulfill her previous promise to Ash to make him the commander of the Royal Cavalry Guard. For now, Ash is her personal guard, and his status is equivalent to that of a baron.

My status is a bit low, but I have a close relationship with her. When I go out, I am representing her, so most people will give me some face.

Before, Irelia had never thought of sending Ash directly to the army. Now that the latter took the initiative to bring it up, she realized that she had indeed wasted time before.

With Ash's ability, he should be able to quickly become famous in the Royal Guards and gain real power. Then, she would have a legitimate reason to recommend him to her father.

The rules of the Central Holy Spirit College are very flexible and do not object to students taking part-time jobs elsewhere. Before, when Alvin became king, he would also come back to study further.

[In July 1778, Ash joined the Royal Horse Guards.]

[In August, Ash was promoted to team leader.]

[In October, a war between the sea tribes broke out in the southern continent. The Royal Cavalry went to the battle. Yaxiu led the troops and made great contributions. He was promoted to captain and led a thousand men.]

Wars of invasion by the sea tribes of the southern continent often occur, so the countries near the sea are always on guard. Usually when encountering such things, the Purple Spirit Kingdom will send troops to support.

"Sure enough, it's much faster to get promoted by taking the military merit route."

In Youyue Castle, Ash stared at the promotion notice in front of him with a smile on his face.

This time, the Purple Spirit Kingdom didn't start off as disadvantaged as Weine, so he didn't need to spend too much time in the academy.

Now that Irelia has won the Challenge Championship, the support rate of the Academy will increase, and he decided to focus on the domestic market next.

Another advantage is that the intensity of party struggles in the Purple Spirit Kingdom is not very high, so there will be no situation where Irelia is suddenly assassinated. Besides...Ash feels that Irelia should be more aware of this than Vene.

[In December, with Irelia's recommendation, you were granted the title of Earl and led a team of 12 Royal Cavalry Guards.]

[King Zi Ling granted you a fiefdom, and you were assigned to manage it. ]

"Ok?"

Ash smiled slightly.

Being demoted?

"It seems that King Zi Ling doesn't want Irelia to take power in the army."

Generally speaking, the Wangxuan faction does not control too many military resources. After all, once it has a large army, civil war may break out at any time, and the kingdom will suffer the losses.

Even Irelia's brother Kavi, who had led troops to fight against the invasion of the sea tribe, was soon stripped of his military power after returning.

The power of the contenders for the title of King of Choice mainly comes from their respective factions, and the power of their maternal family is the key. Among Irelia's three siblings, she and her sister were born to the same mother, while Kavi was born to another, which means that the maternal factions are still divided into different positions.

However, Kawi does not have an uncle who is the Sky Sword Master, so the competition for the king's election will ultimately depend more on personal ability.

The Royal Cavalry Guards are the core army of the Purple Spirit Kingdom. Purple Spirit is known for its invincible cavalry with 50,000 guards. The control of such an important army is naturally in the hands of King Purple Spirit. It is reasonable that his Irelia faction was kicked out.

However, King Zi Ling also took Irelia's face into consideration and agreed to recommend him to be crowned as Earl. It is actually quite rare for him to be promoted from Baron to Earl in just a few months.

What surprised Ash was that King Zi Ling actually gave him three thousand cavalry guards.

These are the Royal Cavalry Guards, the most powerful branch of the Purple Spirit Kingdom.

Ash originally thought that this was King Purple's preference for Irelia, but after arriving at the territory he realized that he was overthinking.

His territory is located in the northwest border area. The territory cannot be said to be barren, but there is one bad thing about it - it is close to the Elf Kingdom.

As a relatively powerful race in the Rhea continent, the elves established their own kingdom at the junction of the western continent and the southern continent.

Different from the fair, tender and fragrant elves in Ash's impression, the elves of the Rhea continent have dark skin, are proficient in magic, have beautiful and ugly looks, but have bad personalities and have always looked down on humans.

Moreover, the elves are not peace-loving. Instead, they have been in constant friction with the human kingdom. Unlike the orcs who fight for food, the main reason for the fight between the elves and humans is the struggle of races. They seem to want to prove to humans that they are the superior race and the dominant force in the continent of Rhea.

Unfortunately, we haven't achieved very good results over the years.

The main reason for this is that the number of elves is relatively small, and their reproductive capacity is just the opposite of that of orcs. Orcs only give birth to one litter in their lifetime, but they may not have even one in their lifetime.

It is indeed the case that the policy of reducing the birth rate has been taken to its extreme.

Ash's territory is called 'Harvey City', which is less than ten kilometers away from the Elf Kingdom and is the center of the war conflict.

King Zi Ling sent him here to guard the national border.

Obviously, these three thousand royal cavalry guards were not given for nothing.

But Ash became excited instead.

Since King Zi Ling holds the Royal Guards so tightly, it will be difficult for him to exert influence from the army. If he wants to defeat Irelia in one go, he must find another way.

The war-torn areas on the border have both good and bad sides. Although the public security and conditions are bad, the restrictions on development are low. If you are a count leading 6,000 people in the country, the old king will be suspicious of your character, but if you lead 10,000 people at the border, he may not even ask any questions.

"This one can be used to attack the enemy with a large force."

Ash licked his lips.

An earl deserves ten thousand? What a joke.

Can I still listen to you when you are in my territory?

What the hell is the elf tribe? They deserve to be exterminated!

[In January 1779, you officially took office as the mayor of Harvey City.]

People's livelihood, public security, loyalty, economy... Ash developed one by one in an orderly manner. With the experience of the last simulation, these were not unfamiliar to him.

By April, the territory's military strength had reached 4, doubling in size.

Then he began to explore the map around him, trying to find a way to borrow money to speed up development.

[In May 1779, the elves sent troops to Harvey City.]

"Wow~ I didn't hit you, you hit me on your own?"

On the map, Ash finally saw the legendary elven warriors—a group of ugly monsters with long ears and long faces!

......

"Is this thing really an elf? Why does it feel like a big goblin?"

On the strategic map, the elven army is approaching the city of Harvey.

Ash slowly clicked on the opponent's troop illustrations. Although he couldn't see the attribute values, the troop portraits were clearly placed in front of him.

How to put it, they are indeed very different from the elves he imagined.

Originally, Ash had the idea of ​​using Slaanesh to control the elves, but after seeing these elven warriors, he completely lost his appetite. So, it is impossible for him to have those soft girls in anime!

Then again, maybe there are racial differences within the elves, with the ugly ones going out to fight and the beautiful ones staying in the kingdom.

Forget it, it doesn’t matter, just destroy them all.

The elven army has only three thousand people, but their combat effectiveness should be very strong. The good news is that the other side obviously does not know the number of troops stationed in Harvey City.

"I'm hitting idiots like you."

You didn't do any reconnaissance before the war? Who gave you the confidence?

The reason why Ash doesn't conduct reconnaissance is very simple, because he doesn't need to conduct reconnaissance. The Eye of the God of War is more useful than the True Sight Ward on the big map.

After one action round, Ash moved his troops out and successfully set up an ambush.

However, the elves were very vigilant, and the ambush did not achieve the effect that Ash wanted. Only less than two hundred elven warriors were killed, and the elves soon began to counterattack.

The elves are proficient in magic, but that doesn't mean they only know magic. There are still plenty of muscular elves who charge into battle, and there are also archers. The elves' archers are different from humans', they are born with the ability to enchant bows and arrows, and have lower requirements for strength, but the arrows they shoot have higher lethality.

"Racial advantage."

Looking at the elf army that was madly casting magic and arrows on the interface, Ash couldn't help but sigh.

The racial hatred between humans and elves is huge, but even though humans have such a huge advantage, they still let the elves establish a kingdom. This is not so-called mercy. Given the morality of those human nobles, they would like to have three elves under their feet. In the end, they still cannot really enslave the elves or kill them all.

Fortunately, after Ash arrived at the territory, he used the two months of tax revenue to transform the original 3,000 Royal Cavalry Guards into magic armored Iron Pagodas. Under the protection of the enchanted armor, the Iron Pagodas charged and forcibly crushed the elven army.

[Your team repelled the elves' attack, killed 1252 elf warriors, and captured 822 prisoners.]⒎

"What a pity! A thousand people escaped."

After five rounds, the battle ends.

Looking at the elves disappearing from the map, Ash shook his head secretly. His money, his weapons and equipment, were gone.

There were many casualties in this battle, with more than 300 soldiers killed and more than 400 injured, most of whom were hit by the first wave of attacks from the elves. The power of magic and arrows is indeed strong. To be honest, if the Iron Pagoda had not broken up the elves' formation and caught the other side off guard, the casualties would have been even greater.
