"You don't need to be nervous, just pick anyone you like."
With a smile, Luo De said, "It's perfect since Durant is teaching them theory, you take them for practical combat training, and in the future, they'll have to stand on their own."
Luo De knew that Gang Le and Durant weren't used to gathering followers; otherwise, Gang Le wouldn't have let Luo De dismantle his previous team.
But Gang Le's extroverted and straightforward nature meant he could make friends anywhere.
"Hehe, that's good then."
Gang Le grinned and said, "We have another request, could you write us a written command like last time?"
"It sounded very imposing, and the brothers were full of energy after hearing it!"
With a sly look in his eyes, Gang Le leaned closer to Luo De and whispered, "The brothers privately say that your command has magic in it, it must be related to your Saint Master title!"
No one is a fool.
Ordinary training feels mundane, but after hearing the lord's charging order, one's body feels tremendously energized, capable of challenging two at once and feeling no fatigue in a fight.
Who wouldn't notice?
Not everyone in the army is a brute; the clever ones quickly realized.
The lord's command likely possesses magical power.
Coincidentally, everyone knew about the Wildmen's Saint Master legend, so naturally, it all matched up.
"Hmm, I'll personally write a command for you."
Luo De would write it even if Gang Le didn't mention it.
"Thank you for your generosity!"
Gang Le's grin widened, then suggested, "You could actually give such a command a name."
"A name?"
Luo De was a bit puzzled, "What do you mean, isn't it just the lord's battle order?"
"Too ordinary."
Gang Le shook his head and said, "Call it the Saint Master's Battle Order? Sounds a bit plain..."
"Saint Master Decree then."
Luo De casually replied, then changed the topic,
"Don't waste time on such things, do you have any other questions?"
"Saint Master Decree is not bad either!"
Gang Le paused, showing a hint of shyness on his face, "But... I have a small request."
Luo De raised an eyebrow, signaling him to continue.
Gang Le rubbed his hands, whispered a few words in Luo De's ear,
"Hope you can look after Kedna, she's my woman."
"You're quite the guy."
Luo De was taken aback, then patted Gang Le's shoulder, "How old is she? Whose daughter?"
"She's a widow too..."
Gang Le scratched his head and chuckled.
"Alright, I'll ask Lawrence to look after her."
Luo De couldn't help but sigh.
Gang Le really doesn't engage with young girls; he specializes in visiting widows' houses.
"Alright, Lizardmen are different from humans; you've never interacted with them, and who knows if they have any hidden special abilities."
"Vivian has interacted with them, she just went to ask Xue Rui, let her tell you about the Lizardmen situation."
Luo De shifted the conversation and waved for Vivian to come forward.
Prepared and ready, Vivian began introductions directly,
"They're very strong, although they don't look as robust as you."
Said Vivian, as her gaze swept over Gang Le,
"But their strength shouldn't be weaker than yours."
"Their common weapons are spiked shields and wolf fang clubs."
Vivian gestured with her hands, "The thickest end is about the same as your head."
"You need extra caution with those spikes; they're all poisonous."
Luo De raised a hand to interject, "I've already asked Luna to prepare antidotes for you."
After speaking, Luo De gestured for Vivian to continue.
"Additionally, their spear throwers are impressive, much like the Wildmen under Lord Baron's command, perhaps even more robust."
"Xue Rui said that the Lizardmen tribe has shamans, similar to Wildmen prophets, but Xue Rui hasn't seen them before."
"Also, Lizardmen are an alien race, possessing beast-like sharp fangs, and will bite like beasts."
"So even when they're without weapons, you must be careful."
Vivian cautioned seriously, "In short, as Lord Baron said, when encountering them, you can't hesitate."
"Alright, I understand."
Gang Le also put away his smile, memorizing all the information Vivian provided.
"Alright, if there are no problems, go down and prepare."
Just as Luo De finished speaking, Gang Le's stomach started rumbling noisily.
"Apologies, Lord, I haven't eaten anything today..."
Gang Le smiled awkwardly.
"No worries, we happen to have some leftovers from lunch."
Luo De immediately looked at Vivian,
"Tell Leia to cook those snow-bound frozen ones from lunch."
"Yes, Lord Baron."
Vivian nodded and immediately got up.
Gang Le looked puzzled, and Luo De smiled, patting his shoulder,
"Wait and see, you'll get to try something new today."
...
...
In the valley north of Razor Plain.
Chris had waited a week and finally saw his reinforcements.
"Good day, Lord Gang Le."
Chris nodded and saluted Gang Le, his tone respectful.
Even though he was a knight, Chris knew that in front of Luo De, he wasn't valued as much as Gang Le.
Moreover, in the previous encounter, he had lost to Gang Le, whose bravery made Chris apprehensive.
Since Luo De entrusted this mission to Gang Le, Chris also followed orders.
Noticing Chris's gaze, Gang Le grinned, boldly stepped forward, and unceremoniously hugged Chris's shoulder.
"Ah, don't be so formal, we don't need this between us!"
Gang Le said casually, "We were on opposing sides before, don't take it to heart how informal I spoke."
"You've had such good education, you're smarter than me, we don't need these ceremonies between us."
"The most important thing is to work well together and complete the lord's task splendidly!"
