Winner Takes All novel Chapter 878

Jack was not the only one.

Even when Debut and the two others were stunned when they found out that they were going for a scout and patrol mission after an hour.

Achilles calmly explained, “You are all new recruits. But no one in the Dragon Cavalry is considered as a new soldier. You all are among the best from your previous unit, that’s why you don’t need to go through the newbie transition stage again. As for the scout and patrol mission, it will let you get involve and familiarize with our operations here at the Dragon Cavalry.”

What Achilles said was undeniable.

In their original unit from they came, they were considered as elites.

If it weren’t for the Dragon Cavalry, they wouldn’t have come and join as a fresh recruit.

And to execute a simple scout and patrol mission was just a piece of cake for them.

Upon getting confirmation.

Jack and the rest of them went to the canteen nearby and ate their breakfast. After that, on Achilles’ order, they prepared themselves for the mission.

Everyone was issued with an armor, a horse, and a set of standard weapons.

Jack finally saw the standard weapon for The Dragon Cavalry mentioned by The Mysterious Man before —— The Dragon Cavalry Sword!

Even though he had heard about it before, but when he saw it for the first time, he was still amazed by it.

This was more than just a sword.

The width of the blade was at least half the size of a door, extremely thick and heavy. It weighed at least 25KG!

On the blade itself, a special pattern was engraved on it during the smithing process, and it was giving off a bone-chilling glow.

The sword handle was not placed like a normal sword either. Instead of placing at the side of the blade, it was placed at the middle section of the blade.

It looked like sword, but resembled a saber as well.

“Mr. White, this, isn’t this sword too heavy? It’s quite cumbersome to use it both offensively and defensively.”

With only using one hand, Debut picked up the Dragon Cavalry Sword and whined about the weight. He was surprised as it was quite heavy even for him.

For his body size and his height of over one point nine meters, he should be considered as massive, even among the soldiers in the Dragon Calvary. However, when he picked up the Dragon Cavalry Sword with one hand, it was quite difficult to handle it even for him.

As for Cole and Yarol who was standing aside, they found that it was even much more difficult for them. They had to gather strength from both of their hands to pick up the sword.

“Too heavy?”

Achilles shook his head and glanced towards Jack who was inspecting the Dragon Cavalry Sword.

The next second.

To everyone’s disbelief, Jack held the sword handle with his right hand, and effortlessly lifted the sword up. He swung the sword for a few times, and looked at it solemnly. He murmured, “This sword, can really block bullets?”

Debut and the two others was stunned when they saw how he could handle the sword effortlessly.

And they were even more astonished when they heard what Jack had said.

They were elite soldiers from their previous units; However, the Dragon Cavalry had always been strict and protective about their internal information.

Therefore, even for Debut and the rest, they did not have much information on what was going on in the Dragon Cavalry.

After hearing what Jack had said, they were dumbfounded.

The three of them simultaneously lowered their head and looked at the Dragon Cavalry Sword in their hands.

This sword… Can it really block bullets?

“Yes, it can. This is why the Dragon Cavalry Sword is much heavier and thicker.” Achilles nodded his head and reaffirmed what Jack had said was true.

He paused for a while, and spoke again, “But you all just joined the Dragon Cavalry, so this is just a standard issue weapon. Basically, for the scout and patrol mission you won’t be needing it. Later on, you will get the chance to learn how to use the Dragon Cavalry Sword properly. But of course, the prerequisite is you can freely swing the sword like Jack.”

The face expression of Debut and the other two instantly changed.

They were quite shocked when they found out that Jack could swing the huge sword like a toy.

“If you are all ready, then it’s time to go.”

On Achilles’ command, the five of them walked out together.

Debut immediately caught up with Jack. He laid his hand on Jack’s shoulder, and hold his left fist on the position of his heart. He said seriously, “Jack, as expected you are truly a man with hidden capabilities. I respect you even more now. You can even easily pick up the Dragon Cavalry Sword, your strength is way above the others. You will most certainly become a great hero.”

The flattering kept going on.

And it was making Jack really awkward.

He had never thought that this dude Debut would think so highly of him with just a few words.
