Along the way, she saw that the orcs and soldiers in the military camp were getting along quite well, especially the group in front of her. From the atmosphere, they seemed to be as friendly as ordinary comrades, so Isabelle took the initiative to strike up a conversation.

The group of people immediately became nervous when they saw that it was Isabelle who struck up a conversation. Whether in the eyes of the original soldiers or the orcs, the Red Dragon Duke in front of them was a famous big shot.

However, Isabelle was different from the common noble knights. As a person who had climbed all the way from the grassroots to the Imperial Duke, she had dealt with all kinds of people along the way, she had also slept in the same tent with these soldiers. She knew very well how to communicate with these low-level soldiers. Soon, she used her ability to adjust the atmosphere to ease the anxiety in the hearts of the people.

Not long after, the group of people sat by the fire and started chatting and laughing.

Seeing that the atmosphere was harmonious, Jack took the lead to ask a question that everyone was concerned about. “Sir, I heard from the propaganda that black bear and the others will have a chance to train their general’s strength once their experiment is successful?”

When he said this, everyone pricked up their ears. It was obvious that they were extremely concerned about this topic.

The steel valiant empire valued martial artists. In history, there were many legends of grassroots rising up on the battlefield to obtain noble titles. However, those were mostly legends. Jack and the other two were all veterans of the empire, naturally, they knew how difficult it was for ordinary grassroots to become nobles of the empire.

Without the support of nobles, it was very difficult for ordinary soldiers to come into contact with combat aura knowledge. Most of them would need to work hard on the battlefield to obtain some military merits before they could apply to learn combat aura knowledge. At that time, there would often be countless hidden injuries, they had already passed the Golden Age, and their foundations were far inferior to those who had graduated from a regular Knight Academy.

A few people who could successfully make a comeback were all extremely talented people. These people could not be measured with common sense. For example, a typical example was the skull crusher who had been in the limelight a few years ago in the empire. This fellow had only started cultivating combat aura after he was twenty-five years old, after three years, he had directly advanced to advanced silver tier. After three years of training in the north, he was already at the level of a general. In just a few years, he had achieved something that most people could not do in their entire lives. This kind of situation was unreasonable.

However, in the end, most of the people in the world were still ordinary people. Most of them were people like Jack. After many years of military service, they had painstakingly accumulated military merits in exchange for the cultivation method of combat aura. After more than ten years of hard work, they were barely able to reach bronze-rank. And now, Jack was already thirty years old…

If it were not for this natural disaster, Jack might have applied for retirement in two years. He would have gone to the south to be a guard captain for a noble grandfather. He would have found a wife for the daughter of a local fortune merchant and ended his life just like that…

As for the general, Jack had given up on this idea many years ago. He had never even thought of becoming a silver knight, because once he became a silver knight, he would be promoted to the level of a major, if he worked hard, it was very likely that he would become a viscount with a background.

But just this step, Jack felt that he might not be able to do it even if he worked hard for another 20 years. This was the limit of the conditions.

However, the so-called scientific experiment in the base had told him that he had the chance to directly become a general. How could a person like him not be excited?

Although it seemed that he would not be able to become the Grand Duke of the Empire even if he became a general now, who did not want to become stronger. After becoming stronger, there was always a way to become the best…

Hearing Jack ask this question, Isabelle smiled and thought to herself, ran Xiaojuan’s propaganda is still very targeted.

After that batch of disabled soldiers, if she wanted to attract other people to do the surgery, she naturally had to show the benefits of the surgery. Otherwise, who would be willing to be the experiment subject of the infamous alchemist?

Since Jack took the initiative to ask, Isabelle decided to take this opportunity to publicize it. After all, her own identity would definitely be more credible than ran Xiaojuan’s group, and she had also witnessed Jack and his group’s ability to spread gossip.

So she smiled and said, “It’s not 100% certain that it will succeed…”. Saying that, Isabelle looked at the black bear. “Take his example. I’ve seen his test data, but in terms of physical fitness, he has already reached the silver knight level. This is a huge improvement. You’ve all seen it with your own eyes.”

Everyone nodded. Black Bear was able to receive a silver knight’s strong bow with his bare hands. In terms of strength alone, many silver rank lieutenant generals in the camp could not compare to him.

“But for the time being, he has only reached the physical fitness level. The base is helping those who have succeeded in their experiments adapt to the changes in their bodies and strengthen the training of their physical fitness advantages. After the training is successful, they will be equipped with professional skills that are suitable for him. I believe that it won’t be a problem for him to become an excellent silver knight in the short term…”. … ..

Everyone was actually quite excited when they heard this. Silver Knights. According to their original conditions, it would take them at least 15 years of hard work to reach that stage even if they had sufficient resources, this was under the condition that they had sufficient resources. Ordinary soldiers had to carry out military affairs, do miscellaneous chores, and fight on the battlefield. It was impossible for them to spend all their time on training.

That was why most people were bronze throughout their lives…

And the fact that one surgery could solve the threshold of many people’s lives was already quite tempting…

Seeing that everyone’s enthusiasm had been aroused, isabelle continued, “As for the next breakthrough, you’ll have to continue working hard. If you want to become strong generals, even if the surgery succeeds, you’ll still need to put in a lot of effort. However, a surgery like Adolf’s is relatively easier on the path of promotion… “…”

After a pause, she continued, “You’ve all seen it during the test. This surgery of Adolf’s has the ability to transform. After these few days of testing, we’ve learned that after transforming, Adolf actually has the strength of a Gold Knight. As long as he can extend the transformation time and strengthen his training in the transformation state, he’ll probably grow much faster than ordinary people!”

As soon as he said that, Jack and the others stared at Black Bear in a daze. Black Bear had a silly smile on his face as if he had been hit by gold. Although he felt that he was a little strong after transforming, he did not expect him to be so strong… …

Jack and the others also did not expect that this silly black bear had unknowingly become a general-level candidate…

Just a few days ago, in their tent, black bear was the weakest of the three…

This difference made Jack and black sheep uncomfortable…

“Is there no possibility of becoming a Gold Knight in the other surgery?”Jack could not help but ask.

After all, although black bear’s condition was good, it had to take some risks. If it was not a last resort, most people would not want to risk their lives.

“It’s not that…”Isabelle shook her head. “It’s just that it’s relatively harder, and the progress will be much slower…”

Before the experiment, ran Xiaojuan had done a comparison of the data. The improvement of sequence 6’s plan would be hindered by the gene mixing, resulting in an increase in the cost of improvement. It would be harder to grow as time went on.

After considering it for a moment, Isabelle still said truthfully, “The second experiment won’t be as good as the first one in terms of growth, but it’s stable. There hasn’t been a single case of surgery failure in the base so far. If we want to be stable, we can actually consider it. After all, the first experiment is more risky…”. “…”

“But… I heard that the success rate is quite high…”Jack asked carefully.

“That is luck…”. Isabelle shook her head and said, “Previously, we calculated that there is only a 50% chance. Although the success rate is far higher than this in the current case, there are still too few people participating in the experiment and it can not be used as data to overturn the previous conclusion. Therefore, we also hope that those who want to take the risk do not be blindly optimistic. After that, the announcement will still warn everyone with a 50% chance … ..

“This…”Jack and the others looked at each other in dismay. Finally, they asked weakly, “Is it really only 50% ?”

“For the time being… yes…”Isabelle nodded solemnly.

From the bottom of her heart, she wanted to encourage the soldiers to choose sequence 4 as much as possible, but this was a choice that could cost them their lives… As the most trusted leader, Isabelle knew that she couldn’t do that.., if she opened her mouth, it would be equivalent to bearing the consequences of a lot of failures. It would be a heavy blow to the prestige that she had built up with great difficulty. With the current situation of the base.., she wasn’t allowed to take such a political risk…

When Jack and the others heard the reply, they all fell silent. It was obvious that they were entangled in life… …
