Chapter 17 Career Information and Past Events of the Old Country

Boom Boom! Boom!

There was a violent vibration above his head, which not only brought a depressing muffled sound, but also shook down a stream of dust that choked people and couldn't breathe, making Yi Xingchen feel helpless at this time. For a moment, he even regretted his decision.

Because, before the imminent beast tide occurred, the people were sad all day long about the coming disaster, in order to encourage the people, so Yi Xingchen impulsively expressed the idea of the king and the people sharing the hardships, which naturally won the support of the whole city. As a result, when the beast tide arrived, Yi Xingchen did not leave the Valley of Oblivion immediately, but hid in the tunnel with his subjects, waiting for the beast tide to end.

But the tunnels are really narrow, most of the passages, and there is not even room for people to stand, and almost all of them have to bend their bodies to travel in this narrow tunnel. On the contrary, Yi Xingchen's location is the most spacious in the tunnel, and he can barely stand.

If Yi Xingchen had known that this tunnel was so narrow and it would be so hard to hide in the tunnel, maybe he would still choose to go back to Blue Mercury. However, at the moment, at least it can appease the people, if it comes, then it will be peaceful, how to say, Yi Xingchen still has to take into account his dignity as a king, and he can't say one thing and do another thing in front of the people.

It's just that as a person from modern civilization, hiding and taking refuge in the tunnels is really an extremely boring thing for Yi Xingchen. Under the boredom, Yi Xingchen could only chat with Sheen and Allen, taking this opportunity to learn more about the Valley of Oblivion and the customs and folklore of some countries on this otherworldly continent, so as to pass the time.

Although Yi Xingchen inherited the king's soul information, it was mostly fragmentary, with mutilated memories and no time limit. Moreover, the previous king, as a king who had been in the palace for a long time, rarely traveled around the world, and knew very little about the specific situation of the otherworldly continent.

Sheehan and Allen are different. Since the collapse of the country, they have encountered a lot of things and learned a lot in the process of fleeing. What they talked about, Yi Xingchen was still very interested.

The Firmament Continent is vast, and the people of the Valley of Oblivion come from the west, so the location of their country is commonly known as the Western Regions. But in fact, they are not the only ones in the Western Regions, but there are hundreds of countries, and there are wars or alliances between countries, and they are very chaotic with each other.

About twenty years ago, in a kingdom called "Rome", there was a nobleman named "Caesar", who fought several battles and eventually became the king of the Roman kingdom. Under his leadership, the Roman kingdom developed rapidly and gradually became stronger, and soon became a hegemon. Later, Caesar tried to unify the Western Regions and establish the Roman Empire, so he launched a war of annihilation. In the past ten years, more than 30 kingdoms of the Western Regions have been destroyed.

In order not to become the next wretched creature to be destroyed by the Roman kingdom, the remaining countries quickly reached a consensus and formed an alliance in order to jointly resist the invasion of the Roman kingdom. At that time, the kingdom of Sheen was one of the allies of the Western Regions.

Later, the Roman Empire launched a fierce attack. Unexpectedly, the various member states of the Western Regions alliance did not stick to the oath they made when they formed the alliance, and at this critical moment, they were not united and fought separately.

As a result, Sheen's kingdom finally perished without timely rescue from the allies, and then Sheen and other refugees fled to the Valley of Oblivion and settled here.

What Sheen told Yi Xingchen was mainly about the country's experience, as well as the relationship between some countries in the Western Regions, the legends of the nobles, and so on. After he had explained more or less, it was Ellen's turn.

But soon, Alan shifted the subject, focusing basically on the legends of warriors, especially swordsmen. These legends are based on Allen's insight, as his profession is a swordsman. This point attracted Yi Xingchen's attention.

"Your profession is a swordsman?" Yi Xingchen asked curiously, "Doesn't occupation refer to work?" For example, a certain profession in Blue Mercury often refers to a certain position of work.

For example, if a college student graduates and works as a salesperson in an insurance company, he becomes an insurance salesperson. If he is a teacher in a school, he is a teacher. This is the profession that Yi Xingchen understands.

But Alan shook his head and said, "A career refers to a skill you have mastered, not just a job. ”

"Jobs can be changed, but the skills people have won't change. Alan continued, "I have mastered the skills of a swordsman, and my profession will always be a swordsman. A person can have more than one career. ”

Yi Xingchen still didn't understand it. Seeing this, Alan spoke in detail, and Yi Xingchen gradually understood.

Functionally, the occupations on the Firmament Continent are mainly divided into two major systems - combat professions and non-combat professions. Each system has many kinds of individual occupations. These professions, as Allen puts it, refer to people with a variety of skills. There are many types of professions, and Alan can't understand them all. However, according to Alan's knowledge, there are five common combat classes: knight, swordsman, archer, hunter, and sorcerer, while there are many more common auxiliary classes, such as healer, pharmacist, priest, alchemist, smith, brewer, cook, musician, and so on.

Humans of different professions have different professional skills. People who don't have skills can't have a career. Moreover, in the Firmament Continent, the division of occupations is very strict, and not everyone can claim to be a certain profession.

There are two ways to obtain a career level: the first is the assessment of the professional guild, and the second is the level increase of mastery skills. Each profession has a corresponding level, representing the level of ability of the individual, and the higher the level, the higher the ability.

For example, Eren is a swordsman with a rank of three, Sheehan is a priest of the church, and Lucas is a seventh-level brewer.

Allen also told Yi Xingchen a past incident in a tone of admiration and regret. In fact, for their kingdom, back then, if the two top combat professional kings of the kingdom had not been killed, the old kingdom would not have completely fallen and finally collapsed. Because, these two kings are ninth-level knights and ninth-level swordsmen, and they are the two gods of war in the old country, if nothing happens to them, Caesar of the Roman Kingdom will not dare to send troops to attack and invade.

"It's a pity...... It's hard to look back at the facts!" Alan said with a sigh.
