Chapter 772: Acquaintance
As far as the Dachang Empire is concerned, it is natural to be reluctant to see such a dynamic civil organization rise. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, anyone who holds the skill of slaying dragons has a little bit of arrogance in his heart as a light prince and a slow prince, and it is impossible to accept strong control, and once he encounters suppression, he will rise up without even thinking about it.
And among the transcendents in this world, there are many who can be comparable to the true gods of the land, and after experiencing several bloody battles, and even shocking the East and West, the two sides finally reached a compromise, and the federation, the guild of the transcendent alliance, was still retained.
With power, it is natural to demand the right to speak.
Not to mention, this world is not the only one in the Dachang Empire, even if only the human side is considered, there are also Western countries, and the Dachang Empire has no way.
"It looks like a mercenary alliance in the West......
Wu Ming stood in front of the huge door of the federation, looking at the bustling flow of people, thoughtful.
The federation is just a big framework, or a loose alliance of Eastern cultivators, under which Paul is full of martial artists, Taoist priests, and Gu masters...... Even the martial arts hall and many academic palaces can be classified under its name.
Even within this alliance, there are filthy differences with each other, and if it is not for the great external pressure, it will be completely scattered.
As soon as he entered the alliance, the bustling flow of people and a huge screen with ever-changing words appeared in front of him, making Wu Ming feel that he had come to the mercenary guild in the West.
"Recruit men and crusade against the barbarians! The daily reward is five baht of silver, and the beheading is counted separately! ”
"Urgently hire navigators, preferential treatment, negotiable remuneration!"
"Hunting mission - my proprietor is seriously ill and urgently needs fresh Xiangwang whale fat to hang his life, but there is a sale, ask for it, and 100,000 are urgent......
……
A variety of dazzling mission terms, constantly flashing on the screen, with mysterious and unpredictable power.
Of course, the number one is still a blood-red mission: "Hunt down and kill the Xiyi people who are making trouble in the New Territories Port, this task is released by the Fufeng Metropolitan Protectorate!" Those who complete it will be credited to the military merits and will be used as the basis for future judgments! ”
Although there were no other superfluous rewards, it could be seen that many cultivators were eager for this task.
After all, the title of the Dachang Empire is still quite valuable, not to mention the son, uncle, marquis and other people who have torn the soil and sealed the country, as long as they enter the lowest class of scholars, even if they are corporals, they can be exempted from taxes and forced labor, and when they reach the level of doctors, they can also protect their families.
And Qing? Not to mention, the other party has a small county as a food town, and it is an absolute top-level magnate in the Dachang Empire.
The Dachang Empire has a strict order of 'non-military merit is not knighted', so the military merit reward is still very popular, at least at the back of the task, the dense collection record let Wu Ming know its popularity, and couldn't help but mourn in silence for the bold Xiyi bandits.
"But in a small chapter, spells are used?"
Wu Ming looked at the ever-changing screen.
Obviously, ordinary technology simply can't reach this level, and the only explanation is that there are mages behind the scenes.
This kind of luxury is more than other worlds.
According to the information that Wu Ming got from Zhang Fan's memory, both in the East and the West, all kinds of transcendent techniques were applied to the international people's livelihood, especially the existence of the true god, which promoted this.
In the Dachang Empire, there was a Shinto boss named Shennong, who was in charge of the gods related to agriculture, and most of his priests were proficient in agricultural production, and they also had many magic skills to ensure that the soil was fertile and the grains were abundant.
There are even special wind gods and rain gods...... Ensure that the whole empire is in good weather, and that water and drought are kept from people.
And among the people, there are all kinds of cultivators who kill demons and save the world, and the most are like the current mage, who silently serves the people with extraordinary power.
"What kind of world is this......
Wu Ming sighed silently.
It is precisely because of so much power that the level of civilization in this world has surpassed the steampunk world he experienced before, and even his previous life may not be comparable.
After all, although artificial rainfall is powerful, can it manipulate the weather of the whole country?
The Dachang Empire can do it!
"I want to borrow books from the Federation's collection, but I don't know what conditions are needed?"
Wu Ming came to the task card and asked the hostess directly.
"Borrowing from the Federation's collection?"
The hostess was a woman wearing a cloud shirt and skirt, with two sweet dimples on her face when she smiled, and suddenly smiled: "Guest, you first need to become a member of our association, and the registration procedure is very simple...... What, you are an expatriate and do not have a domicile in your home country? Then you need a local member to sponsor it, and there is a certain fee. ”
"Well, that's a simple ......"
In fact, just when Wu Ming agreed on the surface and secretly prepared to try whether this branch was well defended, as soon as his ears moved, a voice next to him broke into his ears.
"Miss Zhang Guo, I'm very sorry, I think the task you applied for is beyond your ability!"
On Wu Ming's left hand, a girl who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old was wearing leather armor, and her little face was full of stubbornness: "Uncle, you can help me, it's almost the end of the month, if I can't get a large amount of contribution points, my level in the Federation will definitely be downgraded, and I will definitely be demoted to an outer disciple by the Xue Palace." ”
"Zhang Guo?"
Wu Ming turned around in surprise, and immediately overlapped the girl with a certain figure in Zhang Fan's memory: "Zhang Fan's sister? Such a coincidence? ”
At this time, when I looked carefully, I saw that the girl was childish, her hair was simply tied into a bundle with a rope, full of heroic posture, with a sword hanging from her waist, obviously already open, and there was also a holster, and the contents were quite familiar to Wu Ming: "Musket? No, according to the name of the Dachang Empire, it should be a machine with a bead? ”
After all, it is a world that often accepts time-travelers, and there are always some novelties on the market, and even Wu Ming seems to feel full of sci-fi style creations.
It's a pity that the cultivation of this fruit is still too low, and it is only one or two levels, and he hasn't even cultivated his sword qi.
In this low-level period, a trap is naturally very effective in protecting oneself and killing enemies.
"Who are you and why are you staring at people so much?"
The little girl's perception is very keen, Wu Ming looked at it so unscrupulously, and was immediately noticed by her, glaring back like a little wild cat, showing her teeth and claws.
"Little girl, I think you misunderstood, do you have an older brother named Zhang Fan? Or the owner of the Four Seas Commercial Bank? ”
Wu Ming smiled.
The wariness on Zhang Guo's face quickly disappeared: "How do you know?" ”
"I'm an overseas adventurer who happened to meet your brother in the open sea, and I was commissioned to send a letter home...... I've given it to the treasurer. ”
"You know Uncle Xiang? That shouldn't be a liar! ”
The girl's vigilance quickly disappeared, and a hint of expectation appeared on her face: "Big brother, are you a very powerful adventurer?" Team up with me! Then we'll be able to take on the mission of the Metropolitan Protectorate! ”
"Sorry......"
Wu Ming shrugged his shoulders: "You forgot that I am a foreigner, and my identity as an adventurer is not recognized here at all." ”
"That's ......"
Zhang Guo shook his head regretfully, his face full of disappointment.
"Ahem...... Actually, it's not impossible! ”
At this time, the uncle next to him interjected: "As long as the little girl, you apply for a team, and then let him join as a foreign mercenary, but if you do this, the merit points and contribution points will not be his share......"
"That's right!"
The little girl's eyes lit up: "I'll apply immediately!" ”
"Wait!"
Wu Ming has a slight black line on his forehead, feeling that this little girl is facing acquaintances, how can she think so out-of-the-box?
"First of all, you can't be sure of my identity yet!"
He gestured two fingers: "What if I'm a bad person?" And second, I haven't agreed to your request yet! ”
"Don't do that, big brother!"
Zhang Guo looked familiar, grabbed his sleeve and shook it gently: "The adventurers who dare to go to sea are all powerful, just like my eldest brother, one hand is like the wind swordsmanship, and even the lecturers of the Seven Swords Academy are full of praise......
As a result, I'm still in prison!" ’
Wu Ming rolled his eyes in his heart.
"In this way, I'll send you back to the Four Seas Commercial Bank first, and you tell me the cause and effect, and then I'll consider whether to help you, how about it?"
Since he took Zhang Fan's things, this naturally has a fate.
This fruit can be touched by himself, it is also fate, if it is something that can be solved easily, Wu Ming doesn't mind helping out.
"That's ......"
Hearing that she was going back to the Four Seas Commercial Bank, the last bit of worry in the little girl's heart disappeared, and she took Wu Ming's hand and walked out of the federation.
“…… He is an official student of the Hanashita Academy, and he will be promoted to a disciple in the room immediately! ”
The little girl proudly announced, and immediately, through her narration, Wu Ming also probably knew the difficulties that this little girl was facing.
Although the school palace is a place where you can learn skills by paying money, the real transmission or something still depends on the qualifications and fate.
Zhang Guo's qualifications are not good or bad, and he was barely valued by a lecturer from the Huaxia School Palace and became an official student.
For this kind of disciple, the treatment is different from that of ordinary self-financed students, and the requirements are much stricter, with many semester tasks, once they can't complete it, they face the risk of demotion and withdrawal.
In the previous few big exams, with the help of Zhang Fan and others, Zhang Guo barely passed, but this time Zhang Fan had something to do, and her group of friends and classmates were busy with their own tasks, and the little girl immediately sat on the wax.
"People's task this year is to maintain the membership level of the federation, and to upgrade to the three-leaf level, which is a little bit short......
Zhang Guo said pitifully.
