In the Old World, because of the various kingdoms and principalities that have gone through hundreds of thousands of years of subtle transformation, most people are bound to their rightful positions, except for the transcendental, there are few floating populations, and most of the nobles sit on the wealth accumulated over several generations, trying to go further on the road of exemplary or power.

The former requires qualifications and a lot of money, while the latter is a purely political game, which takes years or even decades to slowly plan, through intermarriage, slander and even assassination, to finally make one's noble ass go further.

And the Far South is a new, uncultivated land, if it weren't for the various magical beasts, relics of ancient civilizations, and even the threat of chaos in this world, it would have become a hot land long ago, attracting countless people to chase wealth.

But the humans of this world have had enough of the hardships brought by the adventure, and the ancient Ottoman Empire has attracted chaos in pursuit of the resources of the otherworld.

The Duchy of Sarion dug its grave well, but it ran into the ancient Roman Empire head-on.

The civilizations of the Black Earth survived the first millennium in the shadow of the dead, and the reason was only because they explored tombs that should not be explored.

This is not counting the Tyranid Zerg caused by the Witch King's experiments in the New World, and if this kind of thing is leaked, it will cause a new round of panic.

Based on this background, human beings in this world have tended to be conservative and unwilling to explore new territories since the beginning of the new century, because the unknown often represents danger.

The nobles who chose to come to the Far South to adventure were all middle-class people who could not find a way out in the Old World, or branches of large families, and with the end of the first round of wilderness, the Far South did not find anything crazy about it, and this wave gradually subsided.

So, what role did the emerging aristocracy play in the cities of this chaotic region of the Far South?

First of all, they shared the risks that the lord had to bear, they paid for the population themselves, armed the soldiers, and reclaimed the wasteland to build villages, and all the lord had to pay was a letter of appointment.

With only one of the ten Pioneer Knights successfully establishing a settlement, the liege's city has an additional security barrier and a potential consumer market.

This model was very popular at the beginning of the development of the Far South, and even now there are lords who use it to recruit people's hearts.

But with the stability of order, there were drawbacks, and a large number of nobles with private soldiers crowded into the city for a more comfortable life, which to some extent checked and balanced the rights of the lord.

Especially with the death of the first generation of pioneers, the rights of the second generation of heirs will generally be suppressed by the aristocracy, and Antoine's ascension to the throne is the best example.

"So, those nobles don't have any other role than to make trouble?" The words spat out by the demon hunter made Elizabeth sweat coldly.

"It's not like that!" Elizabeth feared that if she was too late, the Seris would order all the nobles of the city to be 'dealt with': "Most of them are literate, and some of them have taught themselves the law, and the city needs to be sustained by them." ”

"Alright then, you write down the names of the people you find useful, and I'll take care of the rest." Xu Yichen nodded, and pushed the paper on the table in front of Elizabeth: "They have already betrayed you once, so don't have too much pressure, you are doing a good deed, otherwise according to our habits, it is generally cleaned thoroughly, and it will be easier to manage in the future." ”

Elizabeth's sweat dripped down her delicate face and smudged on the paper: "I can't write this list!" You're going to make the city collapse! ”

Xu Yichen pulled the paper back from the girl's hand: "It's okay, I can get a list from someone else's mouth, so that you don't have to suffer a conscience condemnation." And, it's definitely good to have them without them. ”

With that, the Demon Hunter walked out of the room and mentally ticked Elizabeth a test that if Elizabeth did write a list, she would be on the next list herself.

Xu Yichen doesn't like pure politicians, and he has the final say in the far south in a short time.

Outside the room, the Knight of Jarvis stood guard at the door, and although he knew he was no match for the Demon Hunters, the retired Lion Knight kept his oath to House Prince.

He was like Old Barth, a model among knights, and Xu Yichen had reason to believe that the knights from the knights of the Old Continent were far more reliable in terms of morality and honor than the knightly class among the nobility.

"Mr. Yalvis, I want to know which nobles are really capable in this city, and the city needs to restore order quickly, and I need to know who to turn to." Xu Yichen didn't want to put this loyal knight under extra pressure, he was not a lord, so there was no need to accept this kind of test.

"Of course, Mr. Demon Hunter." As the most loyal follower of the Prince family, Knight Jarvis knew a lot about the petty nobles who really did things in the city, and it took him only a few minutes to write down the names of a dozen people.

He had no idea what the list would do to Godrim City, so Knight Jarvis was still in the mood to ask, "How are you going to solve the rebellion in the city?" Please don't hurt Miss Elizabeth if you can, the war between you and the Church, anyone involved in it will be torn apart. ”

"I'll do my best to fix this, but you don't need to bear any pressure, we'll take over the defense of Godrim City." The Demon Hunter put away the list with satisfaction, put it in his arms, and patted the other party on the shoulder: "Thank you for cooperating with the knight." ”

The list was handed over to the Assassin Fan Li that night, and before dawn, the huge arrest operation was over, and all the nobles in the city were captured by the orcs and the marines, and none of them were spared.

Those who resisted were crushed, and those who escaped were captured by Fan Li and the locals, and he offered a price of fifty bags of grain for a nobleman, and a large group of people ran around the city in order to receive a reward.

In the end, except for a few people who escaped from the city through secret passages, they almost wiped out the noble forces in the city, and there were many unexpected gains by the way.

For example, a few members of the Lion Knights with a bewildered face, as well as a dozen members of the dejected Paladin Expeditionary Force, all of whom were survivors of the Wangxiang City War, were caught this time.

In Xu Yichen's opinion, the local nobles, corruption, bribery, and oppression of the people, and bad things have nothing to do with him, this is not his country, not his city, not his people, as long as he is not infected with chaos, as a demon hunter, he will not trouble them.

But as soldiers of New China, these people only made one mistake, they chose the wrong team.
