Chapter 79 Conqueror of Sparta (Part 2)

The scale of the Temple of War is smaller than that of the Temple of Leadership, but it occupies a much larger area.

This statement is somewhat contradictory.

But a little explanation is understandable.

The Temple of War covers an area of ​​about ten acres, of which the area of ​​the Temple is less than three acres. Regardless of the size of the statue or other things, it is one size smaller than the leading temple of Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom. But behind the Temple of War, there is a practice field that is big enough for hundreds of people to train at the same time. There are all kinds of weapons, armor, bows and arrows, etc., and even opened up a small shooting range!

The priests of the God of War Kratos are all men, and they are all very strong Spartan warriors!

Their chief priest is a man with a height of two meters, a strong physique, a dark skin, and looks like an iron tower. All the priestly robes of the God of War are red, but they are not quite the same as the traditional sacrificial costumes. The traditional sacrificial attire is a robe, and their clothing is closer to a cloak. The style is a bit similar to the costumes in a game called "Assassin's Creed" that Murphy came into contact with in his previous life.

Unlike the priestly robes that lead the temple to show the femininity, the priestly robes of Kratos, the God of War, are more for the convenience of fighting.

Behind the cloak, there are two swords hidden.

"Your Excellency, the High Priest. You are here." The chief priest of the War God Temple first bowed slightly to Murphy, and then bowed to the High Priest to signal.

Murphy felt relieved when he saw this, and it seemed that the status distribution of the temple had been formed.

Since the chief priest of the God of War bowed his head to the high priest, it means that there will be no conflicts between the temples for the time being.

On the issue of belief in the territory, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, is still the main one.

The chief priest of the Temple of War God is a Spartan, including him, all the priests of the God of War are selected from the Spartans in the territory. All of them are very strong fighters, with strict discipline and fighting skills far beyond ordinary soldiers.

"How is the training progress of the priests?" The high priest had a serious expression, and there seemed to be a hint of majesty, which surprised Murphy. He rarely saw this woman showing a strong side.

"At present, twelve priests have connected to the belief of the God of War, and they are accepting the inheritance of the God of War." The chief priest of the Temple of War led Murphy and others into the Temple of War, pointing to the ten prayers praying in front of the statue of the God of War Kratos. The two priests said in a deep voice: "Kratos, the god of war, is the bravest Spartan, and he can pass on the most practical fighting skills to the priests."

Speaking of this, the man who looked like an iron tower pointed to the tallest and strongest three people among the priests, and said slowly: "At present, only these three people in the temple can meet the requirements of the Spartan conqueror's divine favor. ritual, they will be able to become followers of the God of War!"

Murphy looked at the three Priests of the God of War, all of them were tall and powerful warriors with strong muscles as if made of steel.

The recruitment requirements of the Spartan conquerors are so high?

Murphy couldn't help but faintly look forward to this temple unit.

The auxiliary system of "Total War" shows that the Spartan Conqueror is the follower of the God of War Kratos. Their recruitment has a strict number limit, and only Spartans can be eligible to become the follower of the God of War Kratos .

"How are the other soldiers trained?" The high priest came to the statue of the God of War Kratos, leaned slightly, then turned to look at the chief priest of the Temple of War, and asked.

After being upgraded from the Temple of War to the Temple of War, the priests of the God of War can retrain the newly recruited soldiers so that they can understand more practical combat skills. In the auxiliary system of "Total War", this is counted as the attribute of 'combat experience +1'. The current soldiers in the territory, except for those who experienced the battle of the gnolls in the abandoned town, and the newly recruited Greek infantry were not recognized by the auxiliary system of "Total War" as the attribute of "combat experience + 1".

"They are all qualified fighters, but they are not outstanding." The chief priest of the Temple of War looked at Murphy and nodded slightly, then pointed to the soldiers on the drill field behind the temple, and said solemnly: "If you train according to the standards of Greek heavy infantry , I am afraid it will take another month for these soldiers."

The rear of the Temple of War is similar to a small military camp. The priests of the God of War are different from the priests of Athena, the goddess of wisdom. The priests of the God of War only perform a prayer ceremony at noon every day. warrior. The priests of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, have to pray three times a day, and in addition, they are also responsible for treating injuries and diseases for urban residents.

a month's time.

That is to be able to train all the Greek infantry into Greek heavy infantry before autumn.

Murphy immediately felt relieved when he heard this. He had a very strong premonition that this place would definitely become one of the main battlegrounds for fighting Jackals after autumn came! Because after expanding the exploration range of the strategic map, Murphy found that the area outside the bowl where the territory was turned upside down was a mountain road. Through this mountain road, cutting into the interior and guarding a key area, the wolf man could be occupied Divide the area into two, forming a front-to-back attack on the Jackals on the front line!

If Murphy was the commander-in-chief of the human city-state, he would definitely send a strong army to steal the back of the wolf man through the waterway. As long as the connection between the Wolf man's front line and the rear is cut off, victory will not be far away. However, the flaw of this plan is also obvious, that is, if the soldiers sent out are not strong, they may fall into the form of being attacked by the wolf man after being discovered by the wolf man. At that time, if he couldn't hold out until the human army arrived, he might be eaten by the jackals instead!

The plan is dangerous, but rewarding.

According to Murphy's analysis, the human army in the southern plains did not have an advantage in the frontal battlefield with the Wolf man. They are likely to think of this plan to form an advantage of playing more than less.

If the noble council really decided to send troops from here, then it was time for Murphy to express his position.

After all, he is also an alliance with the noble council in name.

The Temple of War is far less magnificent than the Temple of Leadership, although it is also made of marble. However, the Temple of War is very simple and heavy, full of simple and direct expressions of a warrior.

There are many gorgeous reliefs in the Temple of Leadership, but the Temple of War is different. In addition to the domineering statue of the God of War Kratos, there are only six white marble columns in the Temple of War. Even the places where the priests of the god of war prayed were not covered with futons. These strong Spartans just knelt on the floor and prayed every day. This seems to coincide with the customs of Sparta, because Sparta has to experience flogging every once in a while. This is to exercise the will of the soldiers and teach them to obey discipline!

The statue of Kratos, the God of War, has no gold paint, let alone other gorgeous decorations.

——Red marks, scars, muscles made of steel, and the iconic double knives!

The most simple, but it is a heavy momentum!

Kratos, the god of war, stood upright, looking into the distance with his eyes, his saw-toothed swords choosing to devour people!

In addition to the temple and statues in the Temple of War, the other specifications are completely a military camp. The way of life of the priests is also quite simple, they still strictly demand themselves according to the standard of a warrior.

Now, Murphy finally understood why the auxiliary system of "Total War" considered the priests of the God of War to be brave fighters.

Coming out of the Temple of War, the High Priest's expression softened a lot.

It seemed that there was no need to deliberately maintain such a serious expression, but Murphy understood her very well. Because when he himself faced those priests of the god of war who had a strong physique, he couldn't help but raise his face and look solemn.

This is entirely subconsciously influenced.

It seems that people who can become god priests have an aura that can influence others.

"How is the combat effectiveness of the Temple Knights? Compared with these Priests of the God of War?" Murphy, the Temple Knight of the Temple of Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, has not been recruited. Now the knights of the temple are trained by the high priest to guard the temple, and the number is very small. It is not recognized by the auxiliary system of "Total War" and is included in the statistics. Therefore, Murphy was temporarily unable to understand the combat effectiveness of the Templar Knights through the data.

The high priest shook his head and said slowly, "They are real fighters."

What does it mean?

Do you mean those priests of the God of War?

Murphy was a little puzzled when he heard this, but he didn't know whether he should ask the high priest.

Seeing Murphy's puzzled look, the high priest added: "The power of the priests of the Goddess of Wisdom comes from protection and faith, but the power of the priests of the God of War comes from war and killing. They have stronger bodies and richer fighting skills." experience."

That means the Temple of War defeated the Temple of Wisdom?

Speaking of this, the high priest seemed to have seen what was going on in Murphy's heart, and she said in a rare and strong voice: "Until the divine power of the Goddess of Wisdom recovers, the priests cannot use the thunder power of the Goddess' judgment! She is Olympian!" The king of the gods! The god of war is just her god."

The power of thunder?

Is it the power mastered by the previous god king Zeus?

Murphy was silent for a moment, then followed the high priest towards the leader's temple.

He could clearly feel that these gods were by his side, but Murphy couldn't physically perceive and see them.

When almost every temple was built, the power of these gods was shown as 'endangered'.

Did they really fall during Ragnarok, during the time when Christianity rose?

Are they now using the power of faith to return?

Murphy can only guess about the details, but he believes that all of this will be fully revealed in front of him in the future.

Time continues to move forward, and the season has come to June, which is when the end of summer and autumn come.

The weather is still very hot in June and July, and the dry heat in the entire southern plain will not gradually cool down until August. That time was also the time when the activities of the wolf man became more frequent.

After more than a month, many buildings in the territory are close to completion.

The expansion of the city barracks has been completed. A total of 15 teams of 1,200 Greek infantry are receiving training from the Temple of War. Once the training is completed, they will be fully equipped with weapons and equipment according to the standards of the Greek heavy infantry. The training of 400 Athenian longbowmen has achieved some results. Although due to various reasons, it cannot meet the standards of the Cretan longbowmen, but according to Murphy's prediction, the 400 Athenian longbowmen will be able to enter the battle around July. . As for whether it can be included in the statistics by the auxiliary system of "Total War", he can't estimate it.

Grand Duke Rottchild's deal to buy horses from the centaur tribe through Murphy has been preliminarily finalized, but this time the centaur tribe is not asking for iron, but finished weapons.

It seems that they have also seen that the weapons they forged are far from being as strong as those forged by humans.

Since both parties have requirements, it is convenient for Murphy to profit from it.

It can't be said that it is such an exaggeration to deceive the top and the bottom, he just took a small part of the requirements provided by the two parties as his own extra income.

In fact, Murphy didn't plan to do so much at first.

However, the weapon requested by the centaur was not a sword, but a spear, so Murphy had to think about taking something for himself.

The 1,200 Greek heavy infantry will soon complete their training, followed by a large-scale refit. Although the forging technology in the territory is better than that of the human city-state, it is not as good as Luo Tong, who has always been friendly with the dwarves. A weapon provided by Archduke Childe. The weapons provided by Grand Duke Rottchild were only enough to arm 1,000 people, and there was still a gap of 200 people. Murphy had to use a little thought to make up for the difference.

The envoy sent by the centaur tribe is still the beautiful little mare.

She is a priest in the centaur tribe, with a high status, only under her father, the centaur chief, and she is also the most knowledgeable one in the entire centaur tribe. He is also the only priest who is proficient in human language and understands human writing.

The filly seemed to have a crush on Murphy.

Maybe it was because he was also a God-favored person, or maybe it was because he felt that he was more honest in the first business with Murphy.

Although this beautiful little mare is very repulsive to other humans and doesn't want to get in touch with them too much, she likes to talk to Murphy very much. Of course, this may also be because Murphy prepares a lot of desserts every time he talks to her.

Centaurs are an independent race, and they are not very close to humans or other species.

Moreover, the nomadic self-sufficient social system also prevents them from having too much contact with the outside world. If it weren't for the battle with the mammoths in the north this time, the traditional way of riding and shooting could not defeat these mammoths. They might not be willing to fight Murphy. trade.

It is very simple to corrupt a person.

When leaving this time, the beautiful little mare also asked Murphy for a lot of desserts and snacks.

It seems that after eating this sweet food made by humans, the centaur's simple diet can no longer satisfy her.

The two sides reached a deal, exchanging 1,000 Greek heavy infantry-style spears and 500 pieces of bust armor for 800 horses. The trading time is ten days later, and the centaur tribe will drive the steeds to the other side of the Nidolia River for trading after ten days.

Murphy made a rare hack once, greedy for two hundred horses and a small part of equipment.

The horses provided by the centaurs are far taller than those raised by humans in the southern plains. The tallest of these horses is close to 2 meters, and the average height is about 1.8 meters. If the conditions are sufficient, these horses can be used as horses for training heavy cavalry. So Murphy wasn't worried that Grand Duke Rothchild would feel disadvantaged. At the price of the city-states in the southern plains, these horses would probably be enough to buy a territory!

Murphy is only responsible for the conclusion of the transaction.

As for the transportation of the horses, it is up to Grand Duke Robertschild to arrange it himself.

Due to the benefits brought about by his greed for ink this time, Murphy planned to increase the number of Macedonian elite cavalry in the territory to four teams with a total of 216 people.

"Cavalry stables: Cavalry stables can breed and train excellent horses necessary for advanced cavalry. There are also training grounds, where advanced cavalry skills can be taught and trained, and horses can also be trained to face war (this is not the nature of horses). Some There are also facilities for taming war beasts (such as elephants) in the stables." [Note: wild horses can be tamed, elephants can be tamed (mammoths, need to lead the temple), javelin cavalry, Greek cavalry, Macedonian elite light cavalry, elephants can be recruited Troops (requires War Elephants resource). 】

When he saw this line of data, Murphy almost burst into tears.

Where did he go to find the elephant?

Mammoth? Where can I get that prehistoric stuff?

But to his comfort, the Spartan Conqueror finally completed the establishment a month later, although there are currently only six people.
