Lord of War
Thirty-seven. The so-called nobility
The outbreak of the war was beyond everyone's expectations.
When the news of Asuna's dispatch of troops spread, the entire Dabion Kingdom fell into a certain kind of panic in an instant. Under such circumstances, the honeymoon period of the moderate faction and the hawks in the military ended quickly, and they turned to the doves who had been silent in the Langness incident. No matter how high the neutral faction is, it also forms a force that cannot be ignored in an instant, but the more united the neutral faction is, the more irritable the hawks will be, because it is impossible for the neutral faction to support their position.
The reformers, on the other hand, unexpectedly chose to remain silent this time.
The shadow that Asuna cast on the entire Dabion Kingdom is too strong, so strong that it has completely lost the fighting spirit of this generation.
As the instigator of this panic, Sean continued to move forward with a nonchalant expression.
There is still about a day's journey away from Baige Town. If the speed of the team is faster, they can even arrive in Baige Town in the early hours of the morning, which is good news. As for Lonnis, who was regarded as a rare animal, after eating meat and bones for two full days, he also became honest, and he didn't even have the extra energy to think about what would happen to his country, because now he even Survival has become an issue.
The ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny.
Lonnis chewed on the meaning of this sentence over and over again, a little surprised at the meaning contained in this sentence, and his hostile thoughts towards Xiao En subconsciously eased a lot.
He began to feel that Sean was a respectable opponent.
Of course, Sean didn't know that what he said casually would have a brainwashing effect on Langniss. If he knew, he would probably cram all the Internet words he learned on Earth back then into Langnis. Nice head. In fact, when Sean said this sentence at the beginning. It was just making complaints about Ronnie. It was just because the content of the words was too advanced, so this kind of complaints seemed a bit boring. In the end, after Cecilia asked the meaning of this sentence, Sean opened his mouth to explain. Only people understand the meaning of this sentence.
In an instant, many people's views on Sean immediately changed.
Although it is said that he is advancing according to the established route, Sean is not doing nothing. He is sorting out the territory information in his mind at this time. And organize and store by category.
This function was discovered by Sean by accident recently, but when he possessed it, he himself did not know. However, it is a good thing for him to be able to organize them in categories like this. And he also found that many buildings have special functions.
For example, in the category of education, there is a thing called "Magic Library". The name sounds cool, but it is actually a thing similar to a smart library on Earth. Its function allows anyone who studies in the library to get an efficiency +20% commission, and this library can also be upgraded, and the fifth-level library can increase the efficiency by 40%. This can greatly shorten the learning efficiency of students.
But this thing looks very good, but the construction requirements are not easy.
Not to mention that the premise of its building is to establish a college, and it has a secondary research institute and a series of other building facilities. The magical power source alone makes Sean daunted. Not to mention that this world has not yet reached the era of magic technology. Even if it develops, Sean can't afford this kind of thing. It's a thing that can easily cost several million.
And count according to the requirements of the fifth-level magic library. This magical power source alone requires nearly 50 million gold coins.
With this money, Sean might as well build a non-commissioned officer academy. This thing allows Sean to directly cultivate a large number of non-commissioned officers. This is an absolutely necessary and important building for Sean, because it is impossible for him to only have such one or two troops in the future, and the size of the army cannot be so small. Therefore, with the expansion and reintegration of the army, the non-commissioned officers of the middle class are a very important link. After all, when the commander of any army gives orders on the battlefield, it is impossible to detail the level of the team. After all, this is not a game, but It is a real world.
The only problem is that the prerequisite for the construction of the Non-commissioned Officer Academy is still to build a college first, which makes Xiao En very distressed.
Basically, almost all building prerequisites in the education system require the establishment of a college first. This is the framework of the entire system, and other details can only be adjusted within this framework after the framework is built first, but when he thinks of the huge funds and vast land area required for the establishment of the academy, Sean feels that The pressure is just too much.
And even if Sean can really create a college and build things such as a non-commissioned officer academy, a magic tower, etc., it doesn't mean that he can start cultivating it immediately. There is also a very critical factor in it, that is, the strength of teachers. . Without a good teacher, how could it be possible to educate good students? Even if William, Cecilia, Alfred, and Rena were all sent by Sean to be guest teachers, it was still far from enough.
Sean is really depressed.
The feeling of sitting on a treasury and not being able to enter it is really desperate.
By the time all these things were sorted out, the team had almost arrived at Baige Town before they knew it.
Sean sighed a little tiredly, and Cecilia asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I'm just a little... irritable." Sean said with some displeasure, but when he turned his head and saw Lonice lying soundly asleep in the cage, he felt even more displeased, so he walked over and beat the cage, Wake up Langnis.
"It's time for dinner?" Lonnis rubbed his eyes, yawned, and sat up lazily.
The height of this cage is not enough for Lonnis to stand up, and it is also not possible for him to sleep comfortably in a large font. Basically, he curls up when he sleeps, and even for daily activities he can only sit. chatting with Sean occasionally to pass the time. So at the moment when he got up and sat in the cage, he really felt a bit like a rare animal. This kind of self-consciousness made Sean even more crazy in an instant.
"I hope there will be a little more meat on the bones today." Lonnis muttered. Unfortunately, the people around the cage were all guys with extraordinary hearing, so the muttering naturally failed to hide Xiao En and the others.
"I said, can you have more backbone!" Xiao En felt that it was a good thing to torture the enemy, why did he suddenly become less happy, "You are a nobleman! A future who will inherit the title of Marquis and even has A genius who may become the sixth duke of the Darbion Kingdom, can't you be more like a nobleman?"
"What, it's not time to eat yet." Lonnis licked his ears, curled his lips in dissatisfaction, "I'm just a trophy. Don't I look like a monkey in your eyes now? ... That's right. If If I bark like a monkey, can I bring more meat to the bones of my next meal?"
"Where's your shame!" Sean snarled.
"Can that thing be eaten?" Lonnis looked at Sean in surprise, "Didn't you say 'Life is like rape, if you can't resist, you have to learn to enjoy it'?... So I just You can try to enjoy it, anyway, Marquis Tonis has already sent troops to participate in this battle. What suspense is there in this war? I might as well just stay and wait until the end of the war."
"It's only been a few days, has your will been worn out like this?" Sean looked at Lonnie in disbelief.
Is this still the commander who ordered to fight himself to the death in the barracks?
No matter how you look at it, it is not scientific!
Where did the high-spirited Lonnis go?
"Are all nobles like this?" Sean looked at Cecilia in surprise.
"Aren't you a nobleman?" Rena and Sefanio looked curious.
Although Sean's title at the moment is only a knight, his behavior and etiquette are obviously more elegant and far-sighted than ordinary nobles. Known member of the ancient nobility. So at this moment, when Sean asked such a question, everyone was surprised. Even Lonnis, who seemed to be used to being raped, pricked up his ears.
It's not fake that he's a bit self-absorbed. But this doesn't mean that Lonnie's character has been completely wiped out.
"It's different from the nobles in my impression." Sean said with a look of surprise, "Don't nobles maintain the elegance and pride of nobles even if they die in battle? Look at this guy, it's only been a few days Time! It will look like a mangy dog!"
"So I've descended from a monkey to a mangy dog?" Lonnis continued to pick his ears, and said something that almost made Sean go berserk.
But for Sean's question. Everyone was somewhat relieved.
"There is no comparison between now and before." Cecilia thought for a moment, and said, "The nobles in the past advocated chivalry and dogmatic beliefs, and the people paid taxes to the nobles and lords. The nobles and lords were in charge of shelter. One's own citizens... But now with the increase of nobles, the noble system is divided into three different grades: real power, real power, and strength. Therefore, some changes have already taken place in belief and spirit, coupled with the current war Frequent, so it is not uncommon for nobles to become captives, so there is a noble war protection treaty, but this kind of treaty is not binding, but because of conflicts of interest, many people will choose to acquiesce."
This kind of treaty, Sean knew very well, was nothing more than that if a nobleman becomes a captive, he can be released as long as he can pay a ransom that satisfies Victory. Of course, if his family or family members are unwilling to pay the ransom for him, then he can also choose to pay the ransom himself or sign some contracts with the winning party, such as serving the winning party for how many years as the price of self-redemption.
"For today's nobles, it's actually a matter of dying generously..." Cecilia frowned, as if she was choosing her words carefully, "It's a stupid thing....Basically, as long as someone is released Or the hope of self-redemption, many nobles are willing to give up the face of dignity. Of course, there are still some nobles in this world who still advocate chivalry and faith, but they are a minority after all."
"If I decided to kill you now, what would you do?" After listening to Cecilia's words, Sean turned his head to look at Langnis.
"There is no room for negotiation?"
"No."
"Then please allow me to take a bath, let me have a sumptuous last supper, and finally please send my head back to my family." Lonnis said in a deep voice, and the wretched temperament of a mangy dog was completely gone. .
PS: I was coding and fell asleep on the table... Now I have keyboard prints all over my face, looking at the sky, there is still a dinner tonight, I don’t know if it can be eliminated.
