The Godrick soldiers were divided into three squads under the command of the Godrick knights. Each squad consisted of six soldiers, led by a Godrick knight. Marika was a little worried that their number was too small. After all, although Uro was not a large city, it was still too big for merely three teams. So she summoned the same number of Godrick knights and soldiers as before. When another group of Godrick soldiers and knights were summoned, their reaction was the same as that of the first batch of troops. They bowed devoutly to Marika, and after Marika explained the current situation to them, they all expressed great joy that they could be reunited with their former comrades-in-arms again in a new world, and enthusiastically swore allegiance to Marika again. Then they were divided into three small groups according to the same formation of the first batch of Godrick soldiers and knights.
The whole time, Marika was actually very nervous internally. After all, she was just an ordinary office worker in her previous life. She had never led an army before, not to mention a whole city? And now she is worshiped as their god. If it wasn't for the system, she would still probably be wandering around cluelessly in the forest right now. But since she got the system and summoned Ladybug and these soldiers, she now must take responsibility for their future.
'Although the average power level of the enemies in this world seems to be low, I think it's better to summon some stronger allies just in case, and I got more than enough runes for that. '
Not wasting any time, she made another summon again. This time she summoned 18 Exiled Soldiers and 3 Banished Knights.
The Banished knights are covered in silver knight armor with intricate patterns engraved on them, and the helmet is decorated with dragons and white plumes. They either hold the Banished Knights Greatsword, the Banished Knights Shield, or the Banished Knights Halberd.
The exiled soldiers wore red hoods and scarves, and armor consisting of red cloth, iron scales, and chain mail. Their weapons are crescent axes, crossbows, or a combination of longswords, spears and bramble skin shields.
The Banished knights and the exiled soldiers after being confused by the initial summoning, noticed Marika and saluted her as well, but their reactions were obviously less enthusiastic, which caused a little dissatisfaction from the Godrick soldiers. But Marika didn't mind, she knew that their colder attitude was because they were once defeated by the original Golden Dynasty. Their former lord, the Storm Lord, was defeated by the first Elden Lord, Godfrey, therefore making them knights without a lord, but because of their extraordinary bravery, they were hired by various forces in the Lands Between as mercenaries. The situation of exiled soldiers is the same as them. Facing the culprit who took away their hometown, they will naturally not have any good attitudes.
"Lost warriors, I know thou may have past grudges about the Golden Dynasty, and I know the injustice the Golden Dynasty has done to thee. But I assure you, warriors, that was the old order. The Golden Order in this new world shall be different. Under my brand new order, the injustice you have suffered in the past will not happen again. But this new dynasty is still in its infancy, so I need your help to safeguard our new life, our new home." Marika said sincerely. Having played the game, she knows that under the malicious control of the Greater Will, the Golden Order has brought indelible damage to the Lands between and these lost warriors are just one of the many victims. But in this different world, there is no supreme will or two fingers, and Marika is not the same person as she was in the Lands Between. Now she has the soul of a person from another world within her, she will naturally not repeat the same mistakes, and the best way to reconcile is to be sincere.
The three homeless knights exchanged glances in astonishment. Although a little tactful, they were all shocked by the fact that Marika apologized to them. Then they silently reached a consensus, and then knelt down on one knee again, this time sincerely swearing:
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace! Your loyal knights shall defend you with our heart and soul!"
The exiled soldiers also knelt to take their oath:
"Your Majesty, your loyal troops shall defend you with our heart and soul!"
Marika was a little surprised by their reaction. Although she knew that the npc she summoned was absolutely loyal to her, she was still a little surprised that they forgave her so quickly and swore allegiance. But all in all the result is good.
After seeing there are fifty-four soldiers and nine knights, did Mairka finally feel satisfied. She also summoned a war horse for each knight as their steed. With everything ready, she ordered the Banished knights and exiled soldiers to form teams in the same way as Godrick's army. Except for a small group of Banished knights and exiled soldiers who were left as Malika's temporary bodyguards, the rest of the soldiers were sent to take control of the city.
Marika finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, she was finally able to proceed to her favorite part, the gacha pull!
Spectral steed whistle (B), Golden Seed (S), and Coded Sword (C), these are the rewards for the Elden ring gacha pull. The gacha pull rewards for the multiverse are Intoner Bloodline (S), "AbyssWalker" Artorias (A), and Siduri (C).
Seeing such a hefty reward, Marika, while being overjoyed, wondered if it had something to do with the good luck brought on by Ladybug's unique skill. If so, it seems that she would have to take good care of this lucky star in the future.
Marika then clicked on the newly received skill and character cards to check out the details of her new rewards.
Intoner Bloodline (S)
From the RPG game "Drakengard 3". In the distant past, a distant land was ruled by tyrannical lords, and the people lived a hard life under the rule of the lords. Suddenly, five women called "Intoners (ウタウタイ)" or "Divas (ウタヒメ)" appeared. They possessed special abilities which allowed them to use their singing voice as a medium for powerful magic. The five intoners used their power to defeat the lords, brought peace to the world and were since then revered as goddesses. But the price for the intoners to exercise such a power is an incomparably powerful sexual desire, particularly development in random parts of their body, and risks of mental breakdown. But after the tuning and weakening by the system, this skill allows the host to obtain part of the power and bloodline of the divas without having to take on most of the hazardous side effects. When the host uses this skill, the host can use singing as a medium to perform magic attacks and healing. In addition, this skill allows the host to have a heavenly singing voice.
"Most of them? What about the remaining side effects?" Marika felt like there was a catch.
"The host will have a slight increase in libido after using power. Of course, the host can relieve the side effects by resting or directly releasing your libido," the system explained matter-of-factly.
"You're messing with me for what happened last night, right?" Marika wanted to take back her word that the system was considerate.
"Please don't misunderstand the host, the power of the Intoners is very difficult to control, this is already the most this system can do."
"Fine… I'll trust you this time. Now let's take a look at the character card."

From the RPG game "Dark Souls", one of the "Four knights" under the command of Sun King Gwen. A legendary figure with a strong will and unparalleled swordsmanship. Artorias has the ability to walk in the endless abyss after making a vow with the monsters of the abyss, thus earning his name "The AbyssWalker". With his unyielding will, even though his whole body was injured, he still did not forget his mission. He is a brave and unparalleled hero. After the tuning from the system, the pollution of the abyss on Artorius' body has been removed, and the injury on his left hand has also been healed. It is a pity that the influence of being infected by the abyss on his spirit cannot be perfectly eliminated, which makes him taciturn.
Marika was just worried that she had no high-end fighter in her ranks other than herself. With a strong helper like Artorias, Marika's lack of firepower in her forces was somewhat alleviated.
Character name: Siduri
Sex: Female
Race: Human
Character Rating: C
Skills: Magecraft from the age of the gods (C), Management Ability (B), King's Assistant (A), Priest (B)
Character info: From the anime "Fate/Grand Order -Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia-", she is a high priestess who assists the wise king Gilgamesh who rules Uruk. A smart and elegant lady who loves Uruk and is always by the wise king's side. Gentle, virtuous and good at caring for others, she is admired by the people of Uruk. Because she is deeply trusted by the virtuous king, she always expresses her views without any scruples in front of him.
Siduri's management skills are also a good reinforcement. Marika believes that although her ability to govern the country has the bonus of modern knowledge, it is still not outstanding, so Siduri's arrival is really a great boost.
And Marika, who was a senior otaku in her previous life, naturally knew these two people, so she also knew how to get along with them. So without further ado, she summoned Artorius and Siduri at once. But in their original world, they are all characters who are absolutely loyal to their lord. Marika doesn't know what kind of attitude they will have towards her once they are summoned.
Both emerged in the same golden light as when Ladybug was summoned. Artorius was eight feet tall, same as Malika, but his silver armor made him appear taller. His armor is old and damaged with exquisite grain engraving and a blue short cloak covering him, and the helmet has a long black tassel. The shadow of the helmet hides his face, adding to his mystique. The cursed black sword he was carrying gave him a more chilling aura.
Siduri wears a green traditional Mesopotanian women's dress. Under the white turban and pink veil, is a brown-haired beauty with healthy wheat-colored skin.
After the two looked around for a while, Siduri first introduced himself to Marka:
"Greeting my lady, I am Siduri, who once served as the chief priest under the command of the wise king Gilgamesh. In the days to come, my humble self will be serving under your command, I am at your behest." Siduri said politely while giving a courteous bow.
"Artorius, at your command" Artorius introduced himself succinctly, and then gave a standard knight salute.
"Well, you are both welcomed in the Golden Dynasty," Marika replied, smiling politely at them.
At this moment, Marika remembered Ladybug who had been ignored on the side since the beginning of the summoning.
"Oh! I still have to introduce you." Marika pulled the Ladybug to the two of them. "This is Ladybug, my loyal bodyguard and ally." Marika proudly introduced him. Ladybug felt honored at Marika's recommendation, and felt that her usual gentle and kind self had returned.
"Ladybug? Is it a code name? If so, that is quite a unique code name." Siduri asked curiously.
"Um... yeah, a friend of mine gave it to me, she said it would bring me good luck or something. But I'm not sure if she's joking with me or serious." Ladybug replied with some embarrassment.
So the three of them chatted for a while, getting acquainted with their future colleagues.
Marika then explained the ins and outs to the newcomers. Siduri is indeed the brains of the four, and she immediately advised Marika:
"My lady, since you intend to seize control of this city, I suggest that you should parade in front of the people to appease them, to let them know who the new lord of the city is, and it is best to bring evidence that the previous city lord has been executed. This can establish your prestige in front of the people and can also scare away any remnants of Bass."
"Then you'd better use his head," Artorius also put in his own opinion.
"Wouldn't that be a bit, uh, gory?" Ladybug, who has always been unimpressed with extreme violence, questioned worriedly.
"It's normal to show the heads of your defeated opponents. How could it be too violent?" Artorius asked, puzzled.
"Forget it, pretend I didn't say that." Seeing that Artorius and himself were obviously not of the same era, Ladybug wisely chose to not push it further.
Thus, Marika turned back to Bass' body. Fortunately, she didn't disfigure him too much when she pierced his head with the dragonslayer spear, so she could still make out his face, otherwise she would have to parade around a disfigured head that no one knows if it is the mayor's . Marika cut off Buzz's head with the Coded sword neatly. When she returned to the courtyard, a Godrick knight returned on his steed to report the progress of the takeover.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the remnants of Bass have been wiped out, and the masses have been temporarily stabilized."
"Well done, your efficiency exceeded my expectations."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"It's time, my lady," Siduri reminded.
"Hmm." Malika handed Bath's head to the Banished knight who served as her bodyguard for safekeeping. The Banished knight stuck Bath's head on top of a spear that he picked up on the ground for easy carrying during the parade. Ladybug felt sick in his stomach watching the bloody scene but tried not to show it.
At this time, Marika took out the Spectral Whistle, and she put it on and blew on it. She was initially worried that Torrent, who was only big enough for the Tarnished to ride in the game, might be too small for her, but Torrent didn't let her worry for too long. She saw that Torrent was much taller than in the game when he was summoned, just enough for Marika to ride without hindrance.
"Hey! Old pal, long time no see." Marika greeted Torrent softly, stroking her. Torrent also let out a happy purr, as if saying that she was also happy to see Malika.
Malika got on her horse smoothly, and then gave the order:
"Advance!"
So it didn't take long for the people of Uro City to see a scene they would never forget. The beautiful lord parades through the streets on top of a tall gray warhorse with horns, guarded by her mighty warriors. The silver armored knight, the leader of the team, held up the bloody head of the vicious former mayor, Bass, atop a spear.
