What is magic?

What is rune?

What is the difference between their techniques?

The biggest difference is that technology does not require any talent. A person with the ability of the race does not need any talent, only sweat and energy to master this knowledge.

This is not the case with magic and runes. If there is no corresponding talent, they cannot perceive and construct, and they will never be able to cross the huge gap drawn by talent in front of them.

An ordinary person may not be able to become a mechanic, but he can apply the mechanical knowledge he learned in the textbook to gears, levers, engines, and repair some simple mechanical equipment.

An ordinary person has no talent and will never be able to become a rune craftsman. He will not even have the simplest ability to repair rune machinery. He cannot build a spell model like a mage. Even if he memorizes all the knowledge in the spell book, he will eventually be Zhao Kuo who talks about war on paper.

The same is true for a civilization. When you don't have a certain resource...

There is no shallow iron ore in the territory of the Mayan civilization, and copper ore is also scarce, so they can only use stone, and they finally developed the manufacture of stone tools to the pinnacle - but they still can't refine steel.

The Bosilians mastered extraordinary navigation technology, allowing them to sail in the Pacific Ocean, but their organizational structure is still at the stage of primitive civilization, and there are no large ships.

The so-called curse of resources.

For these nomads, the standard system of magic and runes are things they have never seen before. The only thing they have is the shaman training system.

Communicate with nature, control exotic beasts, and engrave totems.

These mercenaries who claim to be from the far west, and those who look like they are from the primordial, are like caravans from a distant world, showing their abilities in front of the nomads.

After most of the map resources were cleared, their eyes quickly turned to the remaining three clans. They each had their own characteristics, but without exception, their military strength was extremely strong, and it was difficult for a single lord to bite them off.

It would take at least ten lords to unite and attack, and gather 10,000 troops, to have some chance to compete with them. It would be good enough if they could guarantee not to backstab each other, not to mention coordinating and commanding to attack together.

Who outputs, who holds the line, and how to distribute the rewards? My troops were pulled away by you and suffered heavy injuries. How can you guarantee that you won't kill me in return? Why did you go to my troops instead of the troops of the neighboring family?

(In fact, there are various temporary contracts, but the system has not released them at this time, so that they can learn the battlefield environment alone)

The lords were screened at high speed in the first ten days, and those who were extremely warlike had been screened out during this period. Continuous battles consume a lot of supplies, and the loss of troops and equipment will be directly reflected in combat effectiveness.

It is definitely not a one-man battle. One person can take healing medicine to recover and continue to fight.

If the army does not lose personnel, it will only lose temporary combat effectiveness, and once there is a loss of personnel, the combat effectiveness will be reduced.

For every person lost, the entire army will suffer irreversible damage.

A slight opportunity to replenish personnel will be provided every 30 days.

This subtle balance also makes most lords who are aware of this situation dare not easily attack others, and will only take the initiative to attack when they are sure of their tactical advantages.

It also forces these lords to pay attention to their logistics, troop maintenance, support and other issues.

Most of the lords don't even have these concepts. The battles in the territory are often early and late, and the round trip time is no more than one day. As for the situation in the farther places, they have not explored it. That's too good.

Some lords turned their attention to the clan for logistical reasons, as if they remembered the king selection war proposed by the system.

The clan leaders are also very interested in these mercenaries who took the initiative to send themselves to the gate.

Of course, he has a better idea.

An idea that can solve the problem of advancement and these mercenaries at the same time.

The chief of the Shuanglin clan is very proud of his flash of inspiration.

"Or, you still have something to say to me?"

Ji Lin rubbed his hair and looked at the black-armored scout in front of him who had recovered his breath and looked at him vigilantly. The shiny chain mail is not an equipment that can be easily manufactured.

Just from the armor, you can see the industrial capacity behind a soldier. These neat standard chain mail cannot be privately forged. Just like the one-piece breastplate used by Ji Lin's spearmen, it is directly formed by a hydraulic press and then made into armor.

The fighting style alone is very different from the felt that nomads often wear, and there is also the long sword and short bow on his back, and the same black hair and black eyes as him, instead of the heterochromatic eyes that nomads have.

Seeing that the other party still lowered his head to drink soup and kept silent, Ji Lin sighed.

"We are mercenaries. If you need any help, just tell me."

The system does not allow them to reveal their identities. They usually use names such as "war group" and "mercenary" to fool NPCs in the exercise battlefield.

Whether these NPCs believe them or not, their appearance in this environment is already an established fact.

What they need to give is a reason.

And this scout made it clear that he didn't believe it, and it was written all over his face.

The shape of the camp is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is extremely difficult to spot the small valley hidden among the small hills in the distance. There are also smokeless stoves, high grass walls for camouflage, and uniform spearmen. Light crossbowmen are still standard equipment.

Take those iron lumps lying in the corner.

How could he not see his professional strength with his eyesight? Thank God if those mercenaries have one-tenth of the professionalism of the guy in front of him.

The scout still whispered to the savior.

"Thanks."

No matter what, the other party still saved his life.

A soldier in gray clothes ran to Ji Lin and whispered.

"Sir, the broth from before has been eaten..."

The food provided for a man is a bit insufficient.

"Let's cook another pot."

If you want to talk about why you are so kind to these black-armored scouts, it is...

Ji Lin felt that these people had tasks that could be triggered. The smell of bitterness and hatred they exuded made it clear that he was full of information.

놌It’s the same thing to play an RPG game with a drunken veteran in a tavern, to find a dying soldier on the roadside, and to have a prophet who wants you to save the world.

There is always something for you.
