Aurora

Victoria looked me straight in the eye, like she was trying to look for something wrong with me.

"Victoria, is there something on my face?" "

"No, it must be my imagination. "

Only a few hours had actually passed, so she had no idea that I had lived through hellish torture for over a month.

If this wolf thinks he is now quiet then he is sorely mistaken, unfortunately rank D + is unlikely to be enough to defeat him with my current talents. At the most, I could compete with him.

And where is the best place to find new talent?

The world of beasts, of course.

Even though I just went through hellish torture and someone with a weak mind could literally have died mentally, there is no doubt that my profits are not zero, before the torture I had already been able to acquire the [Talent upwind (Common)] which still gives me a 10% agility bonus.

This bonus should not be underestimated, because it can be the difference between life and death. This bonus allows me to increase the speed at which I can escape, which guarantees me a new measure of rescue!

As a result, as long as I am careful and don't provoke an entire tribe, then I should be able to acquire countless common talents, which, added to each other, will certainly cause an appalling stat bonus!

Level up

[Congratulations to the host for leveling up 4 levels and reaching level 24.]

Haha, I knew that this torture would definitely have impacted my will!

I felt my body warm as if I was in a bath filled with hot water and the next moment my body was cooled in a very gentle way. These two extreme experiences formed a very pleasant cycle, I could feel my body, mind and soul getting stronger with each passing moment.

As I was making the most of this experience, a very soft voice interrupted my little pleasure.

"Can I know what you are doing?" "

I opened my eyes to see Victoria in front of me and I could see her looking at me suspiciously.

Shit. Seeing her eyes, I knew directly what she was thinking.

"It's not what you think! You too will soon feel this kind of thing and then you will understand me! "

" Shameless." She looked away from my face directly, as if looking at me for a second longer would make her feel badly nauseous.

"Ah the ass…" I thought.

"Wait, I can explain it to you!" »I continued

"I don't need an explanation. What is happening in front of me is very explicit. "

As I wanted to give him more details, a voice interrupted me.

"King, the capital of the Northern Kingdom, Aurora, is in sight!" Arthur cried.

I lowered the window and what I could see shocked me, even a few dozen kilometers away, I could see huge walls, without the slightest erosion, as if they had just been built. They gave off a real suffocating aura with their tens of meters high, despite the still significant distance.

We had traveled over 1000 kilometers across the plains to reach Aurora. Indeed, there was no road for cars or other bus, because maintenance would cost much too expensive. The alien races were not the only enemies of humanity, there were still many powerful existences among the wild beasts.

5 minutes later, we arrived in front of the very large open doors of Aurora.

The problem was that in the absence of the Queen and most of the Northern Kingdom's military might, the remaining soldiers were ordered not to open the door under any circumstances.

"Victoria do you hear that? "

"What noise are you talking about? I do not hear anything. At the end of her sentence Victoria's expression became extremely hideous.

Indeed, there was no noise. In a city of over 100,000 people, how could there be any noise?

There was only one explanation, no one lived here anymore.

"Don't worry, there is no smell of blood so the citizens shouldn't be dead." I said softly to Victoria.

"Everyone stop! I cried after my observation.

As we approached the city, our small army had already started to slow down, so the order could be carried out in the next instant.

The limo pulled up, then Victoria got out first as I followed her.

In front of me were 800 ranks (F +), 75 rank non-commissioned officers (E-), 22 rank officers (E), 12 rank generals (E +) as well as my 4 own generals who had all kneeled on the ground next to their own horses.

During the trip, Victoria had detailed to me the military hierarchical system used by the whole human federation, but due to the lack of soldiers, she had just used the category of different military ranks as a rank and granted them those ranks directly in according to their strength.

This resulted in a totally disorganized hierarchical system, with just 4 ranks: soldiers, non-commissioned officers, officers and generals.

However, Victoria still created a leadership system, as it is seldom necessary to move the entire army. A non-commissioned officer directs between 5 and 15 soldiers, an officers directs between 5 and 8 non-commissioned officers and finally, a general directs approximately 2 to 3 officers. But because of Arthur's massacre, the whole chain of command had been disrupted, and some generals no longer even had officers under their command.

"As everyone can see, the city is way too quiet, I want everyone to divide into several teams and come back to the city to analyze the situation. To be more efficient, each team will be assigned an Aurora area. I said softly, but my voice was transported by my energy directly to everyone's ears despite the distance of several tens of meters that separated me from the most distant soldiers.

Each person rose from their position and began to activate. Soldiers, NCOs and officers exchanged teams to restore the chain of command and operate, while I, Victoria and the generals prepared a plan to maximize search efficiency so as to leave nothing behind. escape.

10 minutes later, all the details of each team were sorted out.

"Everyone listen to me, the plan has been established. The city will be separated into 18 large zones. 16 areas will be inspected by my 16 generals while the remaining 2 areas will be scanned by me and Victoria. The soldiers, non-commissioned officers and officers will assist the generals. 2 objectives will accompany this plan. First, look thoroughly to see if there are any living or dead humans in the capital and second, analyze every house and every street in the entire capital to see if there are any clues left by residents or by perpetrators. this event ! "

"Everything according to your wishes, King!" Shouted in response all present.
