Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 211 210. Abnormality and Learning Progress

The ‘run-in’ for the Ronin team on the first day seemed very effective.

These wanderers who gathered from nearby villages and towns never once said that Lan En was an 'outsider' or a 'foreigner'.

Lan En's memory and knowledge allowed him to know how to build his own authority, and the Ronins adapted quickly under authority.

In other words, Lan En made them adapt quickly.

"Good morning, leader of the group!"*N

In the longhouse, when Lan En woke up from meditation, all the wanderers would come over to him, cross-legged on the ground, bow their heads and say hello.

Lan En was still not used to being greeted solemnly, but in order to maintain an authoritative atmosphere, he had to endure it.

"Getting ready to go out on patrol."

"Yes!"*N

The demon hunter's physique recovers energy very quickly, and the gene seed and [Second Heart] make Lan En extremely energetic.

Although he filmed the patrol shift on the first day, because he wanted to focus his energy on learning new knowledge, he basically followed more than 80% of the patrol shifts in a day.

The place outside Hirata Manor was spacious, and more importantly, the ninja who was designated as the instructor, Wolf, could only be encountered outside Hirata Manor.

According to the reward agreement with Jiulang, he could only go up and ask questions when the wolf was not busy.

The Hirata family's manpower gap is clearly visible.

What makes Lan En feel a little abnormal is that judging from the information collected in recent days, the Hirata family's status in Ashina's country is not ordinary.

They are the first-class important ministers of Ashina Kingdom, and they also serve as Ashina's southern gateway on the terrain. They are the barrier that the inner government army must face when they invade.

It is a bit abnormal to think that the retainer manor with such a status should have such a staff reduction.

What's more, this invasion by the Imperial Army is not a menacing and all-out attack. It's more like a regular offensive and defensive battle.

Then it is even more inappropriate for the Hirata family to have such difficulty in this battle.

This abnormality made Lan En worried.

I'm afraid that before the rift between the heaven and earth opens again, the Hirata family will be pushed flat, right?

The witcher shook his head, putting aside this unfounded assumption.

Several men from the Ronin group followed Lan En respectfully and neatly towards the gate of Pingtian Manor.

Although the number of the Hirata clan's armed forces has become smaller, their formation and defense are still strict. The soldiers are generally in good spirits and strong. Armor and weapons are also top-grade in Ashina's country.

Yesterday, Lan En and his team helped gather all the ferries within a dozen miles upstream and downstream of Longquan River to this side of the manor.

If you want to cross the river on a large scale, unless you conjure a boat out of thin air, you can only cross the wooden bridge at the main entrance of the manor.

Under such circumstances, if you want to invade this manor, even professional soldiers will have to recruit hundreds or nearly a thousand people.

And if an enemy force of this size could be allowed to enter the territory, the Ashina people on the frontal battlefield would simply commit seppuku collectively.

The people in the castle town were amazed by the orderly formation of the ronin. After all, even the soldiers of this family were unlikely to maintain such a serious attitude in normal times.

But for Lan En, a small organizational structure with less than fifty people would be a bit outrageous if it couldn't be controlled like an arm.

To define rules, formulate rewards and punishments, establish high and low status and upgrade channels, and guide the crowd's thoughts, he didn't even need to make a detailed personality plan. The rigid routine plan made by Mentos was enough.

After exchanging tokens with the soldiers guarding the gate and saying hello, the Ronin patrol team walked towards the outside of Hirata Manor.

Now as the situation became visibly tense, the soldiers guarding the gate began to switch to muskets.

And under Lan En's sense of smell, he discovered that there was a lot of gunpowder and projectiles stored in the small position at the gate.

It can be said that it is heavily guarded.

In the Ronin group, Kotaro followed Lan En. He and the other patrol members were on guard the moment they stepped out of the gate.

This guy seems to have often looked at Lan En with excitement after Lan En forced Ronin to apologize to him.

It made him a little nervous.

Later, he followed Lan En many times on patrols that were not assigned to him at all. Use the energy of ordinary people to chase a demon hunter with a [second heart].

Later, it was Lan En who added a lot of additional shifts to his schedule before he gave up on this move, which was almost suicidal.

Lan En didn't know what to say about this situation, but he vaguely felt that Kotaro's wretched appearance seemed a bit friendly now.

The ronin held the scabbard in his hand and pressed his thumb against the guard on the handle, ready to unsheath it at any time.

The one holding a spear put the weapon on his shoulder and followed the footsteps.

The few who held bows took out an arrow and put it on the string, looking around alertly.

As the situation and atmosphere became more and more tense, the nerves of the Ronin team and other patrol teams became more and more tense.

But what's slightly inconsistent is that these wanderers who are looking around always look around before looking towards the front of the team.

It wasn't until he saw the tallest figure with silver hair that he breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed his nerves, and then continued to look around.

The reason was that Lan En's breath and voice were too weak.

As a result, his subordinates had to use their eyes directly to confirm that he was still walking in front of the team.

It was indeed the same as his first impression after getting the cracked version of "Lone Shadow Ninja Technique Book". The practice of assassination techniques and silence and breath-holding techniques progresses very quickly.

This kind of technology, where the knowledge points are greater than the operating feel, can be easily overcome in Mentos' learning mode.

Back then, Mentos allowed Lan En to go from a young man who had never even touched a horse to develop the riding habit of a nation on horseback within a few days.

The current knowledge of ninjas only allows Mentos to take one hour out of the deduction and calculation of [Light Body Technique] every day.

After a week, Lan En's living habits were close to that of a ninja.

He will maintain subtle but sufficient breathing in a non-combat state, and the sweat gland activity in his body will be reduced, and the body odor will be reduced accordingly.

Together with this, he developed a technology based on this that can control the activity of the primary heart and the [second heart] within a certain range through breathing.

On the ground of different textures, his footsteps will change accordingly, and he will be as silent as a ghost when he steps on it.

This is close to the level of a ninja who has just been trained and can carry out tasks.

And even Japan's least prestigious rural ninja organization has never heard of an apprenticeship period of less than five years.

An apprenticeship of less than five years, if given the wind. This group of ninjas may even lose the opportunity to be loyal to their master!

Because of this short training time, people can't trust their level at all.

But for Lan En, the only thing he lacks from a novice ninja is [Light Body Technique].

As the team was walking, Lan En's eyes accurately captured a little orange shadow in the gaps between the branches and leaves of the woods by the river.

He cheered softly: "Ha, you are lucky today!"

Then he waved his hand in that direction.

"Wolf! We meet again!"
