570.Well, this place is perfect for a cemetery! -Additional update【12/30】 (Page 2/2)
This military uniform is so excellent that it makes Maxim’s slightly weird white hair become a very complementary embellishment..
Of course, the swastika is a piece of garbage that needs to be thrown into the trash can at any time. The squid must be a bastard, but that doesn’t mean that those things can wash away the stench. Diode thinking is not necessary..
Mrs. Water obviously advocates a simple style, so there are not many decorations on the straight black military uniform. Only the blood eagle logo of the Blood Vulture clan and the ancient sword blade knight medal of Transia indicate her identity, and the epaulettes are used to represent the military rank..
Maxim had a command knife slung around his waist and the legendary Skull Crusher hammer on his back, making him look majestic. Murphy even thought that sending this guy to a model show would get him a consolation prize or something..
But after all, he is still young and lacks momentum..
Compared with Mr. Kudel next to him who wears the same style but has experienced ups and downs in the world, this guy is just like a captain of the bodyguard. Although Kudel stands next to Maxim as an adjutant, when they compare, This tribune looks like a marshal who has come to attack the grassroots..
Especially Kudel also grew a beard, making his majesty even more impressive..
“New clothes are good, right?？”
Murphy asked jokingly.
Maxim and Kudel looked at each other, and they nodded at the same time. Kudel said：
“I have to comment from the bottom of my heart. Although the soldiers' uniforms are much simpler, the slim-fitting design still makes them look energetic and uplifting. If our soldiers were only second-rate, then wearing this new uniform will It can also elevate their momentum to the top level..
Appearance equals fighting ability, this sentence is really true.”
“Let’s save these words until after the battle is over..”
Murphy waved his hand and said：
“A black disaster is enough to prove their quality and ours. The future of Transia will soon be known. You two come with me. I have something to tell you..”
The governor brought his two commanders to a temporary command post in Shadow Valley, took out a document and handed it to them. Maxim's expression changed drastically after taking a look at the contents of the document, and Kudel even more It was a cry of surprise：
“Are you going to turn all these soldiers into vampires? Murphy! This won't work！”
“At least you should read it before making an evaluation, Mr. Kudel..”
Murphy whispered helplessly：
“This is based on a premise. What I mean is that when their lives are in danger and they are about to go to the world of death, giving them a chance to choose whether to continue fighting. This and me forcing them to become vampires are two completely different concepts..”
“If you ask them to choose between 'die' and 'become a vampire', that's not giving them a choice.！”
Kuder scolded.：
“Moreover, there are only so many members of the Blood Eagle Clan. It’s not enough for everyone to come and hug you for the first time. You are just fantasizing..”
“This brings me to the last trump card I have in my hand..”
It’s already here, and Murphy doesn’t pretend anymore..
He gently picked it up with his fingers, and a jar of origin blood jumped into the palm of his hand. Under the illumination of the gas lamp above his head, the liquid reflected a strange light in the glass vessel..
“The original vampires were created by the Archduke of the Ancients using diluted source blood. I don’t have much source blood in my hand, but Tris calculated that after a large amount of dilution, it would still be enough for thousands of people to complete the first midnight embrace..
In fact, before the evil form of blood contract appeared, using pure and noble blood to recruit new members was our oldest tradition..”
Murphy placed the jar of source blood on the table and said to the two commanders in front of him.：
“Do you really think I would believe that 3,000 new soldiers can stop the vanguard of the Black Disaster here?？
They are human beings, and humans have their limits. The power that a strong will can unleash is always limited. In this ungentle world, they must make a conscious decision if they want to protect their hometown.！
Kudel, I know you have irredeemable kindness in your heart, but just as I cannot decide their fate, you cannot make choices for them either..
I want you to send this document to every soldier and make sure they understand what this document means. When they sign their names, they will have a second life..
This time it is no longer a large-scale initial support for the evil purpose of vampire expansion, this time it is in the name of defenders and guardians！
I believe that the vampires transformed in such a war are more qualified to enjoy the blessing of the power of the Midnight Mother than those corrupted in peacetime. They are the foundation for Tris and I to rebuild the Blood Eagle Clan..
The Duke of Blood Vulture has agreed to this plan, you just need to execute it.”
The atmosphere in the command post fell silent. Maxim felt that this was not a bad idea. In fact, he had had similar ideas before, and Maxim was a pragmatist..
He didn't see anything wrong with giving soldiers a second life..
But Kudel is obviously not so easy to convince..
The tribune frowned and stared at Murphy. After thinking for more than ten seconds, he said：
“What if the soldiers don't want to? Would you kill them and force their first embrace?？”
“No! I'm not such a cruel leader, so I'll give them this！”
Murphy took out another document from the table and slapped it on the table. Kudel glanced at it. The big name on the document was "Detailed Explanation of Transian War Insurance·Second Revised Edition"》
The tribune, who was fully involved in the establishment of the field hospital and the recruitment of apprentices, certainly knew what this was, and he laughed in anger..
He slapped the table and said：
“Therefore, after our soldiers sacrificed their lives for their hometown with human bodies, they either become vampires and fight for it again, or they accept the transformation of those quack doctors and use machines to replace their bodies and return to the battlefield.？
Didn't they even have the chance to choose to rest in peace?？
Dear Midnight Mother, Murphy, I seem to have never known you. I once thought you were different, but you seem to be no different from other vampires..”
“What you really want to say is that I am no different than Sarok Dar who turned you into a vampire..”
Murphy glanced at Kudel and said in a gentle tone：
“I understand your pain, Kudel, so I don't blame you for attacking me personally, but I will not allow gnolls to set foot on my Transia！
If necessary, in order to win, I will turn every fighting person I have worked so hard to raise into a vampire! I will turn Transia into a hell for jackals and anyone who is hostile to us！
I once said that the warriors and I are the embodiment of the will of the land of Transia..
It doesn’t want to experience the pain of being trampled, plundered and destroyed again, so in this war, I can dedicate everything to victory..
If you think this is against your moral principles, then maybe you”
“Stop talking, you two.！”
Maxim, who had been silent, spoke for the first time at this moment, interrupting Murphy. He said in a deep voice:：
“Any further talk will destroy unity. This matter itself should not be brought up by Master Murphy. I am the commander-in-chief of this army. It should be me who decides the future of my army. This is a responsibility that I cannot evade..”
He reached out and picked up two of Murphy's documents and said in a deep voice:：
“Your Majesty the Governor, I assure you that Shadow Valley will become the cemetery of Transian enemies, and it will also be the most glorious burial place for all the loyal and brave men in this Black Disaster War! But the eternal defenders will rise again from their graves.
We will walk in the dark night. Whether we are alive or dead, we are willing to dedicate everything to our hometown and the goals we firmly believe in. As you said, this kind of first embrace may allow the Blood Vulture Clan to truly be reborn from long-term decay.！”
After speaking, Maxim gave Murphy a military salute, then straightened his back and strode away..
Murphy and Kudel were left in the command post, and the atmosphere was very heavy until Murphy took the initiative to speak. He stood up and said：
“Maybe in your heart, there is no difference between me and Salokdar, but I still have to defend myself. I will not hide in a dark castle and use the lives of loyalists as bargaining chips. I am the lord of Transia..
Lords should protect their territory and people.
I am a warrior in this battle too, and no one can set foot on that soil until I fall, just as I will do the same before I ask my soldiers to stake everything for victory..
I don't need your forgiveness, Kudel. I have only one request: fulfill your duties to Transia.！
you know what i'm talking about.”
