Chapter 873 255: Ultimately, Still Need a Battle, Beginning of the Holy Hall Assessment (10K)_2
A considerable number of personnel would form deep friendships with the adventure guild members during their joint battles, often making promises to these guilds eager for growth.
Eventually, a significant number of students would transition from candidate knights to private units of the adventure guilds.
Generation after generation, adventure guilds rise, and naturally, some dissolve into obscurity.
Over time, almost everyone in the adventure guilds of the entire Yibel Federation bears the mark of the vocational academy.
The core power of the academies is ostensibly held by the deans of the various academies, but in reality, it is the dukes of the duchies, there's no doubt about this.
It is precisely because of this unique framework that the entire Yibel Federation is imbued with an extremely strong martial spirit.
The only difference from the past is that upon leaving the academy, they shift from being accountable to the academy to being accountable to themselves.
Yet, even so, these professional groups remain closely connected to the academies.
Although they have left their original candidate knight units, they ultimately emerged from this framework, possessing a clearer understanding of the entire federation's system and, compared to ordinary people, are more willing to fight for the federation.
This is the reason why, once the federation's war machine gets moving, it can quickly assemble a terrifying combat force.
Kael, who is keenly aware of this, never imagined he could, like the federation, cultivate such a massive group of professionals.
In the end, he could only choose to "focus on key areas," lacking such a broad source of students and a widely recognized honor system and subsequent talent transfer system. Maintaining these combat forces is the limit of what Kael can achieve.
Beyond that…
Either ensure a constant personnel number in the Lancaster Territory exceeds 20 times, to create more sources of vitality, feeding back the "over-complement" professional combat group, and further expand.
Or concentrate all resources into these current groups, find every possible way to raise the combat power at hand to a higher level.
After all, when that time comes, even without acquiring enough resources from Kael, they can rely on their own strength to gather the relevant resources from various channels to facilitate their further growth.
Thus, as time has passed, immersed in the rapid changes of his territory, Kael has somewhat neglected the changes in the outside world.
After all, he has reluctantly made relatively adequate preparations, so even if forced to contend due to this chaotic world, Kael still holds enough confidence to truly strengthen himself before the problem develops to its worst.
Only this way will he have more energy to ensure the safety of those he cares about.
That was his belief…
But an unexpected message from the Communication Crystal somewhat disrupted Kael's plans momentarily.
In truth, Kael is now somewhat unwilling to deal with the mess from Holy Briania.
But as for Archbishop Robert, though he doesn't communicate as frequently as with Archbishop Tut, the relationship spanning two generations elevates Archbishop Robert's position somewhat in Kael's heart.
Especially upon hearing Archbishop Robert's words:
"Kael, Pope Mephiel has made up his mind, and I'm unsure how many will side with him.
Now you face an ordinary crusader who hasn't finalized the war plans, but not every approach will be from ordinary crusaders.
We don't wish to see peace end in our hands, so, if possible, help me, help this old man, I no longer… want to be an executioner."
Archbishop Robert spoke very sincerely. Hearing those words, Kael fell silent for a moment.
He was weighing the pros and cons.
In fact, over the years, due to various complex reasons, his relationship with the Earth Mother God Sect, the Church of Literature and Knowledge, and the Magic Goddess Church has indeed become very close.
Along with the friendly activities with some churches associated with these three, Kael has not been involved any less.
No one would refuse an invitation from a future top powerhouse of the federation, and even securing Kael's approval would favorably influence their external promotion of the church's doctrines and propositions.
However, all these preconditions ultimately hinge upon mutual benefits.
On one hand, if Kael bridged the gap and genuinely pulled significant support from the archbishops of the True God Churches, he would undoubtedly become an enemy of Pope Mephiel.
Who can guarantee that Pope Mephiel wouldn't directly target Kael?
After all… Kael is very clear about this.
One of the reasons for the ultimate conclusion of the Yibel Federation lies in Governor Caesar not achieving advantageous results in the direct confrontation on the battlefield with Pope Mephiel.
This is an outcome that profoundly shakes the heart.
After all, everyone knows that without external intervention, that Federation Governor Caesar virtually represents the concept of the strongest human being.
Even though Pope Mephiel is also human, his strength is somewhat lower than Governor Caesar's, but he can't resist the additional boost from the Four Divine Blessings.
