Chapter 520: Collar Badge
"Go ahead, I just need to be alone. Ms. Elena understood.
"I forgot to ask, does Mother know the name of the ancestor?" Sean remembered another question before leaving.
"I don't know. Lady Elena shook her head and said, "I am afraid that there are few people in this world who know her name, and they all use the honorific title of Ancestor, and among the Andes, once this honorific title is used to refer to someone, it refers to her." ”
"Understood. Sean nodded, the years will bury a lot of things, including a person's name, especially a lurker like the other party who has not shown up for a long time, but knowing that the other party is the orthodox princess of the ancient Andis Empire, there is a way to think about it, archaeology is not a way.
"Wait. Lady Elena stopped Sean.
"What else?" Sean turned to look at her.
"I'd like to see Christina, can you arrange that?" Ms. Elena made a request.
"There will be a chance to see you, but not now. Sean replied ambiguously that he would not let the two meet until Christina's interrogation was completely over.
"Cheng, you look at the arrangement, it's okay to be early or late. "Ms. Elena just wants to meet her old friend, but she is not in a hurry, and the two don't necessarily have much to say when they meet, after all, when she met each other, she was just a little Lori who could just run.
Sean's main consciousness returned to Christina's presence.
The other party has detached himself from that state of psychological collapse, and is looking at everything around him curiously, and when he saw Sean, he said for the first time: "This is not reality, is it?"
Sean didn't deny it this time, nodded and said, "You can treat this place as a real dream, everything we say is true." ”
"I didn't expect you to come this far. Christina didn't show much shock, "If I'm not mistaken, you should have checked with your mother Elena just now, how about it?"
Once she got out of the previous negative state, she regained that kind of shrewdness and ability, and in the previous Q&A with Sean, not only Sean got the information she wanted, but Christina also found out Sean's true condition and knew that she had been tricked.
The other party didn't pry Odilia's mouth at all, he was purely deceiving himself, and many of the news he shook out to himself before was ambiguous, and when he was preconceived, he would naturally think about the worst, and he ended up in the pit.
"You've recovered faster than I expected, so you can sit down and talk calmly, right?" Sean smiled habitually again, because there was enough information in his hands, and there was no need to use the same trickery as before.
"What else do you want to talk about? What you should know and what you shouldn't know, you already know, you should understand that what I said earlier is not wrong, we are a family, we are friends and not enemies. "Christina naturally won't give Sean a good look, and whoever is played from beginning to end will not look good.
"Talk about your true purpose, especially what is your purpose in appearing in the Kentana Barbarian Gathering with so many Kentana Barbarian Champion Knights gathered around you? Sean cut straight to the point.
"It seems that you won't give up until you figure everything out?" Christina said with a frown.
"What would you do if it were you?" Sean asked rhetorically.
Christina was silent for a while, and finally sighed and said: "Okay, I admit it, I was a little hostile to you before, but this has nothing to do with the ancestors, it is purely my personal behavior, but I am not convinced, I want to take the opportunity to stumble for you, let you suffer a little, but I didn't expect to be captured alive by you, in fact, the real task of my trip is to find a way to send those two soul weapons to you." ”
Sean thought and said, "So, the other five souls are armed with me, it's not an accident, you deliberately gave it to me?
"Does the lord want me to tell you yes or no? According to your current suspicions, I am afraid that all the things that have happened to the Andes in your military leader over the years have been fueled by us. Christina had a mocking smile on her face.
Sean felt a pang in his heart, knowing that he was about to fall into the previous circle of suspicion again, these things had already happened, especially the things that were beneficial to the Eternal Night Military Leader, and he couldn't get entangled in this anymore, otherwise it would easily cause a crisis of confidence in the entire military leader.
"How much do you really know about soul weapons?" Sean decided to change the subject, no longer dwelling on the previous question.
"You're just asking the wrong person, aren't you? You're the user, and I haven't used it, so how can I know more than you? I only know that this is the masterpiece of a great warlock during the Andes Empire, and it should be a series, and it can be put together into a whole book, and the rest is unknown. Christina replied.
After the Seven Apostles had no way to dig deep into these two questions about how much influence they had in the Eternal Night Army and what they had done over the years, the news that Sean could dig up from Chrystina suddenly plummeted, and Sean was decisive.
As for Christina's request to release the two, don't even think about it for the time being.
Once the two people are put back, it means that the Seven Apostles will surface from the water, and even the old ancestor will come to the door.
Neither Sean nor the Eternal Night Commander was prepared for this.
Although it is so detained, the other party will still receive the news and come after hearing the news, but this matter can be delayed for a while, and if it is delayed for a while, Sean will be more prepared.
If you want to confront your great-grandmother, you must first pull out the thorn of the crisis of trust she planted in the Eternal Night Army Leader from your own heart.
Thinking about it, it was still the collar badge that Sean was raising earlier, which was the best way to deal with the situation in front of him.
This badge system was originally prepared by Sean for the internal contradictions that had already emerged from the Eternal Night Army.
After any force develops to a certain extent, internal contradictions are inevitable.
Because everyone has their own interests, especially those who huddle together for warmth.
When we seek to maximize our own interests, it is natural to easily touch the interests of other groups, and friction and contradictions arise.
However, over the years, the Eternal Night Warlord has been in a state of external expansion, and all groups are bent on developing outward, and the contradictions between the various classes are not serious.
Their long-standing problem is racial contradictions, and different races have their own living habits and lifestyles, which are naturally prone to problems.
The Eternal Night Leader has now forcibly glued them together, but it's not really fused.
In the normal way, it would take them decades, or even hundreds of years, to live together, and share weal and woe before they can become one.
Sean obviously couldn't afford to wait that long, not to mention that as the pace of development of the Eternal Night Warlords accelerated, their composition would only become more and more complex.
Since there is no way to remove it, Sean is ready to amplify and transfer it, and establish a new normative system in the Eternal Night Commander, similar to the kind of knight's oath, after systematic education and many audits, as long as all aspects are passed, especially the ideological aspect, and agree with this concept of wholehearted allegiance to the territory, you are eligible to join it.
Whoever joins them, no matter the order, no matter the origin, no matter the dignity, no matter the male or female, no matter the race, no matter the color of the skin, they are all brothers and comrades.
This new normative system is called the collar badge.
The status of a consul is not only an honor, but also a responsibility, especially the old qualification.
When there's danger, they'll need to be the first to take the charge, no matter what position you're in.
They need to be the first to lend a helping hand when times are in trouble, no matter what job you are in.
When faced with a life-and-death decision, they must die in front of ordinary people, which is the responsibility and right given to them by the territory and the collar seal.
When they swear allegiance to the collar badge, they are no longer sheep, but shepherd dogs guarding the flock.
This new policy will be an incomparable sword when it comes to racial integration.
For those who have the same idea, people can't help but have a sense of identity, so as to ignore a lot of external things, which is the root of human nature that is born with it.
If you look at the essence on the surface, this kind of collar is still artificially created and divided, dividing people into completely different classes, which is basically the same concept as the class division of nobles and commoners.
The most essential difference is that the aristocracy, a privileged class, was established for the purpose of domination, oppression and exploitation.
The establishment of the collar badge is to eliminate estrangement, for responsibility, for faith, for protection, for dedication, for the territory, for the people.
This new policy is to push this indelible root of human nature to the side that is beneficial to the territory, and give it a new definition.
When death is no longer just a duty, but a right that others do not have, when there is no way to avoid it, they are no longer afraid and afraid, but gladly accept it.
That's the scariest part.
Sensing the threat from the Seven Apostles, this system of badges took on another significance.
Since there is no way to change the past, set a new starting point and give everyone a chance to start over.
After corresponding learning and transformation, before officially joining the leader, Sean will give them a chance to state their past, no matter what they have done before, as long as they expose themselves, even if they have made serious mistakes and are brought out in the future, Sean will not be guilty of the past.
This kind of self-statement will be in a state of absolute secrecy, and if it can be placed in the consciousness space, it will be carried out in the consciousness space, and it will not be placed in the consciousness space, but it will also be placed in the mage tower, and it will all be carried out by Sean alone, and the fewer people who know about this matter, the better.
Of course, this kind of special treatment is limited to the middle and high levels of the Eternal Night Military Lord, and those ordinary lords and soldiers, even if they are from the Seven Apostles, have not been able to climb up for so many years, which means that their abilities are quite limited, and even if something really goes wrong, the damage caused is very limited.
The Eternal Night Army Leader has been doing similar things all these years, and the deputy positions at the grassroots level are mainly responsible for the ideological work to ensure their loyalty to the territory and Sean.
It's just that there has been a lack of a comprehensive leadership outline, which depends on personal charm and personal ability, and with the collar badge, this work will be easier to carry out, at that time, these deputies will be the first natural members, and then they will promote education at all levels, and select and elect new members.
When Sean tested the waters of this new rules and regulations, he told the three lords of the Lord's Guard, who had just escorted the Kentana barbarians to the Northern Fortress.
The three of them were dumbfounded, they were separated from Sean for less than ten days, how could the other party come up with a new set of rules and regulations?
Especially when it sounds so emotional.
This privileged class, not for domination and oppression, but for protection and consecration, sounds so unique that it fascinates it.
General Arnold was the first to say: "This is definitely a good policy, a good idea, only with matching morals and ideas, a knight can be truly honored as a knight, the knightly system also had similar beliefs and ideals, but the world has fallen and discarded this idea and glory, if the lord can re-establish it, it is not a beautiful talk." ”
They accepted the badge much faster than Sean had imagined.
However, after careful analysis and analysis, there are historical reasons for this.
The collar badge established by Sean, the promotion of faith is only secondary, and it does not promote any glorious concepts such as equality for all, which is not very suitable for the current society, and the main emphasis is on protection, responsibility and loyalty.
This is not really an original invention in the continent of Ascharn, the Knight's Creed has been popular for many years and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
It's just that the knight's creed emphasizes the protection of the strong against the weak.
The seal of the territory formulated by Sean puts the territory and the people at the forefront of all terms, and the weaker in other territories are placed behind.
Although this is a bit narrower, it is undoubtedly more marketable when it is implemented in the territory.
"I think it's feasible, this is the common belief of our leading soldiers. General Dicron also praised it.
"I support the lord's decision. Patriarch Locke was thoughtful, compared to the first two, he obviously understood that his lord was going to implement this policy and target him.
"This matter can't be too hasty, today's purpose is to breathe with you, you first go to the lord's guard to breathe, see what the reaction of those soldiers is, if there are any suggestions, let's strive to formulate this rule and regulations more perfectly, and then fully implement it." Sean replied with a smile.
Even if it is the formulation and implementation of an ordinary system, Sean will be cautious, not to mention this kind of related system that involves the fundamentals of the territory, and the pilot implementation will have to wait until the plenary military meeting discusses and approves it, and the order is changed every day, which is the most unacceptable.
"Understood. General Dicron understood and was obviously accustomed to doing things, "When we go back, we will study and understand it carefully, and when we have eaten it thoroughly, we will discuss this issue with the lord." ”
"Then it's troublesome for the general. Sean nodded and asked, "How's it going?"
"It's a little bit of a surprise, but it's all under control. General Dicron replied lightly, but Sean could imagine the difficulty and danger of transporting the prisoners.
These Kentana barbarians have super adaptability, even if they are anesthetics, once they are used too much, they will gradually develop resistance, although the speed is not so fast, but for those anesthesiologists, it is difficult to control the amount of use of them, and a little carelessness will get them out of trouble.
And the place they traveled through was a more prosperous area of the Eternal Night Army, from top to bottom, the nerves were tense, and the ten-day trip was even harder than a fierce battle.
"The prison where they are being held is still in full swing, and in the meantime, you will need to stay in the northern fortress to help keep them in the care, and after the handover, you will arrange the corresponding training plan before it is too late. Sean ordered.
