Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Chapter 872 255: Ultimately, Still Need a Battle, Beginning of the Holy Hall Assessment (10K)

Few know of the conversation between father and son in the Orean Independent Kingdom, yet here, someone has quietly reached out to Kael.

"Godfather? It's rare for you to contact me personally today."

Seeing the appearance of someone on the communication crystal who could hardly contact Kael directly, it would be a lie to say Kael wasn't at least a bit surprised.

"Kael, long time no see."

The image of Archbishop Robert emerged on the other side of the communication crystal, his blond hair dull and eyes filled with weariness that seemed impossible to dispel until he spoke about the event that occurred on the Holy Mountain, after which his gaze slightly cleared.

Upon hearing this news, Kael wasn't surprised at all.

The Divine Continent is essentially a world themed around chaos.

The ever-relentless Dungeons make all powers feel as if they are strings wound tight, ready to snap at any moment from undue pressure if they're not careful.

The worst part is that while this tension is tolerable, unless someone goes out of their way to provoke it and wreak havoc, it might not easily become problematic.

But now...

An external force known as Sacred Briania has evidently reached its limit of restraint.

In the name of the divine, conducting vile acts was quite a normal thing for the people of the Human Federation before Kael's crossing.

Like nuns with fish, priests with young boys, and the once countless upheavals instigated by the Church in an era long forgotten by all before the Human Federation's time.

But for the Divine Continent, it's a completely different concept.

After all, in the world of the Human Federation, gods do not exist, but on this continent, gods truly exist, and their powers are exceedingly real and mighty, with even their lineage possessing special powers and status.

Under such circumstances, various dark upheavals caused by deities are inevitably present.

In these turbulent times, almost no one is spared.

There's nowhere one can escape to.

Knowing this early on, Kael intended to make himself as strong as possible.

To become so strong to the point where he could bend the natural course of history, and only then, perhaps Kael could put down his inner turmoil and focus more on matters beyond himself.

Thus, he is now using every means possible to accelerate his evolution.

However, things did not work out as planned, and Kael's journey to success abruptly ended. He soon realized that surviving in this world based solely on individual strength was impossible.

Until his own strength reached a certain height, no individual on the continent could remain aloof from the dominant forces.

Perhaps because, when facing the power of deities, almost everybody appeared as helpless as lambs, that survival through collective efforts seemed necessary.

Hence, after realizing this, Kael, though reluctant to cooperate with others, chose to join forces with other individuals.

Like ants... they survive through unity, which is often the simplest way to get through the crucible.

Fortunately, the overall strength reserve he now holds has reached an incredible level, making ordinary lords, or even those at the Marquis level, incomparable in terms of transcendent resources and available combat strength to Kael.

After all, a normal lord can't sustain such a vast territorial force.

Even a duchy, which manages to easily sustain such a force, largely relies not on the solitary power of the Lion Heart Duke, but on a self-consistent complete training system.

After the Yibel Federation opened economic exchanges with various countries, the former structured Silver Guard Army, while maintaining a certain number, mostly dispersed and integrated into the various duchies.

During the most troublesome period for the Federation, resources were internally adjusted among the nine city-states, gathering scarce resources in key areas as much as possible.

However, what a city-state could barely achieve was far more difficult for a duchy, let alone when some issues escalated to the entire Yibel Federation, with difficulty levels beyond normal imagination.

Hence, there exists a self-consistent academy training system and a dungeon adventure system.

All students emerging from Yibel Federation's various academies constitute the backup forces of the Federation and also the mainstay.

Compared to the older generation of dispersed Silver Guard Army, these academy students can be organized rapidly.

A typical case is the Royal Knight Academy.

Twelve curse swordsmen form one knight class; three knight classes make one tactical platoon; three tactical platoons form one strike company; three strike companies become one knight camp; three knight camps form one battle regiment; three battle regiments make up one complete extraordinary army corps.

With each enrollment at the Royal Knight Academy comprising at least 3,000 people, theoretically, each year the graduating class from this academy could set up an extraordinary army corps.

Then, across the long years, numerous public and private protection and dungeon exploration tasks require participation from these students.

In principle, from the third year, students of the Royal Knight Academy would hardly linger in the academy, instead opting to join mixed teams with various private adventure groups for practical training courses, in the presence of the lead instructor.
