518 Communal or Divine Property? The haze of the Divine Plateau
Valentinsiburg, which once served as the commander-in-chief of the battle of nearly a million people, and is even more honored to be the place where Theresia's crown is added, is about to fade its halo today, bid farewell to this glory, and become an ordinary fortress.
This place will definitely be converted into a memorial in the future, and the origin of the empress's creation of a new order with the support of the military and civilians will be preserved in various forms, but at this time, the empress and her ministers have no time to take care of it, and the empire has been created too many problems to solve.
"I'll wait for Richie to finish dealing with the affairs of the Godfall Plateau, and then come to the Shield Fort to meet me as soon as possible with the results of the communication with Romrose", Theresia said to Kiri and Catherine in the castle square, "At that time, I will confirm with him the specific status of your place, whether it is a Dominion, a Duchy, or even a Kingdom, he will have to talk to me personally." ”
She looked at Catherine again: "Of course, he has to bring you here, and the time will be right to crown you, and then officiate at your wedding." Hopefully he'll move quickly, and it's better not to drag it out until next year. ”
Catherine opened her mouth and didn't say anything, just nodded with a slight red face.
Emblading the two of them, Theresia stepped through the portal opened by Medi herself, where the newborn empire was waiting for her empress to paint her line.
"Come and visit me sometime", Sylvie hugged the two of them, and she winked at Kirly, "Why did you want to take away Redstone's title? I'm the Duchess of Redstone now, and if you're in Redstone, we'll be able to revisit it easily...... Hehe, you know. ”
If you knew who the real body of Qili you licked was, would you cut out your own tongue?
Qi Li smiled secretly and passed perfunctorily.
Sylvie won't be returning to the West, and will have to stay with the Empress for a while. Roydas committed suicide, and the Empress lacked a heavyweight to reorganize the legion, so she had to be left behind.
However, Sylvie was sealed to redstone, so he naturally set up a teleportation point in the Redstone Mansion. This lace side is overflowing with Qili's desire, and at this moment his mind is full of Qili's door-to-door delivery.
The square soon emptied, and Hathaway was left last, and she still had something to say to Kirly.
"Elves, for your best, Theresia has rejected my crown. It's a shame there's a fragment of the Dawning Star on it. If she wears it, she should be able to gain the power of the dawn, which will make her empire more glorious and her figure more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. ”
In the silent enchantment, Hathaway said slowly, unable to tell whether it was a complaint or a simple regret.
"You magicians really have a soft spot for the Empire," Qili sarcastically undisguised.
"You're not Richie after all," Hathaway said with a faint smile, "He should know my mind better, we don't think of Theresia as Kelastro, and we don't want to repeat the mistakes of the Magic Empire." ”
Her smile faded, and her brow furrowed slightly: "This era change must be extraordinary, and we have the strength to do it alone...... Before the support, I can only rely on Terezia, I hope she can go as far as possible. ”
"Until then," Hathaway's tone became bitter again: "Richie and I are both partners and rivals. We're not going to fight on the bright side, but if something goes wrong with me, don't blame me for falling into the trap. ”
She took a step forward, almost sent her entire body into Qili's arms, raised her head, and her pupils were full of autumn water: "I don't know how you were tempted by Li Qi, but you should understand that whether it is a saint or a witch, you are not free." When that time comes, come to me, and I'll set you completely free. ”
"At that time?"
Qi Li squinted slightly: "It looks like you know the things on the Divine Fall Plateau very well." ”
"When Richie talked to me, he said a strange proverb," Hathaway said, "Flies don't bite eggs without cracks, and what he meant by this was that most of the time, the collapse of order was caused by internal causes, and external causes were merely fuses." ”
"I don't know what happened to you, and I don't have to worry about how much I'm moving, but seriously, I'm just sighing. If you can't even pass this level, then your career is nothing more than a castle piled up on the beach, and it can't stand the test of reality at all. ”
Hathaway stood on tiptoe, looking like she wanted to relive last night's warmth, but Catherine next to her was glaring angrily, her hands were still trembling slightly, and she was ready to amplify her moves, she just sighed slightly, sprayed the hot and fragrant breath on Qili's face, and said with a low smile: "Take care, Qili." ”
Hathaway's figure dissipated, Catherine spat at where she was standing, and Kiri patted her on the shoulder: "It's Catherine now, pay attention to the image!"
Catherine suddenly became a big shorter, and she turned into Ellie, and spat several times even harder.
After Theresia and Hathaway left, Chilly and the others went to the army camp outside Fort West, where the Osquim Chamber of Commerce, which had become the "designated service provider for the logistics support of the Figmin Legion", had set up a temporary portal to Beta.
The troops will leave behind all their weapons and equipment and teleport back to Beta City with their bare hands. These equipment were Fei Gong's "tribute" to the empress, and the empress waved her hand, except for a few samples, other equipment was distributed to the legions of Rimako, so that it could play its due role in the western battlefield.
The officers and soldiers stepped into the portal one by one, and there were inevitably whispers in the queue.
"The Empress is our credit for ascending the throne, why don't we have a bounty?"
"We are not the empress's legion, and it is up to Fei Gong to decide what treatment we should have. ”
"Fee total...... I still can't get used to this weird name, why don't you just call it the Crimson Church?"
"Isn't that the same as the Kaim church in Fragrance?"
"Speaking of the situation in Beta City, it seems to be no different from what the Kem Church did in Fragrance, they are all engaged in the god system. ”
"Is it a communal system? Everyone has a common ownership system, and it is not the same thing as a divine property system in which everything belongs to the gods. ”
"Everyone's share, why didn't I get anything, isn't it still the people above who decide who has what treatment, how different is it from the cardinal opportunity of Ika?"
"The commissar is in front, be careful, this is reactionary speech!"
"What's the reaction? That's what happened!"
The whisper drifted into Qili's ears, and together with the reports sent by Aurora these days, Qili said that this was indeed a level where Dao had to go all out.
..................
To the north of Beta, the taverns in the adventurer's district were full, and everyone lowered their voices and whispered, completely devoid of the laughter and laughter of the past, and the atmosphere of wandering wrecks seemed to be pressed by an invisible cloud.
A man and a woman dressed like magicians whispered in the corner, and the man looked helpless: "Katamon is coming back, let's make a decision when he returns, Kidina." ”
The woman looked very nervous: "Katamon is back, which means that the Duke of Prell is also back! When he comes back, we will have good fruit to eat!? Now is the last chance to get out of here, Rezlin!"
"Why do you always want to leave", the thin Rezlin curled up and squeezed out a deep sigh: "There is nothing bad about the co-ownership system, everyone has a house, food, and treatment according to contributions, so you don't have to worry about things in life at all, I really don't understand why you are so indignant." ”
"Did your brain burn out in the supercomputer!?"
Cindina gritted her teeth and said, "What kind of co-ownership system is different from the divine property system? Isn't it the same thing to collect all the wealth and then let the church leaders decide how to distribute it?"
"What kind of treatment should I have, how much I contribute, can you have the final say? Isn't it still the upper echelons who have the final say? This is still secondary, why should I share the wealth I should get with others?"
"I should have understood what contribution points I was engaged in at the beginning, but now the contribution points are always not exchanged for what I want, fortunately, I relied on the black market to exchange some gold bushels, otherwise they would have wiped out the points I worked so hard to earn!"
"Look at what those civilians are shouting outside, we share glory, but private property is shameful! It is a great crime to earn money and spend it on my own? Those civilians, relying on official support, stop people everywhere on the street for censorship, and take off their clothes directly when they see them! No one dares to wear silk and leather clothes on the street now! This is simply unreasonable and crazy!"
Rezlin disagreed: "The official also said that this kind of thing is wrong, and it is being corrected." ”
"What have you corrected? I see that they themselves are fighting among themselves! The pickets who maintained order were surrounded and scolded by civilians, and they withdrew within two days!"
Kidina pounded on the table with her knuckles: "If you want to stay here, you can only wait for the upper authorities to send you a house, food and clothing, and you have to ask for what you want like a beggar." In the future, you can't buy a house, you can't buy your own property, a word can leave you with nothing, what's the point of your life?"
"Where did this come from", Rezlin spread his hands: "Our director said that the co-ownership system should be carried out, but it will not be what you say, don't be fooled by rumors." ”
"Lady Crimson's oracle," Kidina pursed her lips, "there are quite a few civilians who have received this oracle. ”
Rezlin was also a little puzzled: "But the cost is ...... I mean, no cardinal has ever admitted it. ”
He added: "Besides, after all, we can get access to a lot of mystical knowledge here, we are magicians, isn't it more meaningful to pursue the way of magic than some wealth? ”
"You don't care!"
Qidina said hatefully: "I inquired about the level of treatment that the Infrastructure Committee is discussing, a construction magician like me can only live in a very small single apartment, and the monthly food and clothing points are only ten times or ten times that of civilians!"
She flipped her palm and sneered: "Ten times it's so high! Converted into gold bushels, my monthly salary is about five gold bushels! Five! This is the treatment of a second-level construction magician, it's really generous!"
"No, you can't count it like that", Speaking of numbers, Rezlin was very clear-minded, and was about to settle accounts with her, when Gidina said: "Then how to calculate? I only know that if I go to Hadron now, I can earn a few hundred gold bushels for any project!"
"The treatment of transcendents from the Divine Fall Plateau is favorable, the Chamber of Commerce, the Mage Federation, the various magic workshops and the various magician stonemason associations are all desperately recruiting. Headhunter spies are everywhere in Beta City, why, hasn't anyone talked to you?"
The sorceress took a sip of beer, exhaled a strong snort, squinted her eyes, and said, "A new ...... like you Variety, the Mage Federation must be very welcome, a magic tower is indispensable. ”
"Magic, magic tower?"
Reislin swallowed, "How is that possible? It's an inheritance that only a hero-level mage has the qualifications and power to have." ”
"Just burn your brains with your head stuffy," Kidina said pityingly, "the joint communication network that is being built outside, and communication towers are being built everywhere." As long as you sign an agreement with the Mage Federation and become a Communication Mage, you can receive funding from the Joint Communications Council and obtain a magic tower. Of course, the scale will not be too large, and the income from the business related to communication will belong to them. ”
"That's, that's a magic tower after all", Reislin stared blankly, owning a magic tower is the yearning of any magic apprentice and low-level magician, this yearning is enough for them to overcome all the hardships and dangers encountered on the road of magic.
The Magic Tower represents an independent space, land, laboratory, and corresponding wealth, which is the personal kingdom of the magician, and the starting point for the magician to continue to climb the pinnacle of magic.
"Yes, that's a magic tower after all," said Kidina, "can you own a magic tower here? and it's yours forever, and no one can take it away just for a 'communal' reason?"
Rezling's heart was still struggling: "But, but the director said that in the future, we will have more generous ...... than other magicians"
"Empty promises, anyone will", Qidina snorted.
Suddenly a crisp voice sounded outside the tavern, as if it had been amplified many times by some magician, and even if it was blocked by thick walls, doors and windows, it still came in clearly.
"Fellow citizens, have you not heard the call of the lady, let go of your attachment to money, to luxury, that is the door of sin that leads you to the abyss of purgatory......"
The drinkers are clamoring......
"Why did it start again?
"I can't stay in this place any longer!"
"Boss, don't you have a mute enchantment here?"
The tavern owner spread his hands: "You give Jin Buer...... No, adventure points, magic crystals are so expensive now, just buzzing flies!"
The drinkers were speechless, and one of the drinkers scolded the untouchables in his mouth, and he rolled up his sleeves to go out to do something, but was stopped by others: "The guards are facing them, don't touch the mold, many people have been arrested these days." ”
The drinker scolded hatefully, "I can't drink this wine! Who the is drinking and eating by the toilet!"
"The toilets are still good, and after a while they will have to become slave camps," said someone coldly, which resonated with many drinkers.
Basically, the drinkers who were adventurers began to shout and denounce, scolding the untouchables, scolding the Feigong, scolding the Duke of Prell, everything.
Kidina said, "Look, is this the place to stay?"
Rezlin craned his neck and took a long sip of beer, his glass clattering on the table, the hesitation in his eyes completely dissipated.
