Chapter 63: The Rules of the Dungeon
At my strong request and threat, Emperor Tong reluctantly took out money to buy me a so-called water and wine, which was contained in a leather bag hanging on the cart.
It is indeed a perfect water wine, fifty parts of water plus one part of inferior wine, and it tastes slightly alcoholic.
Even this drink caused the werewolf opposite me to roll in his throat, and I just swallowed half of the meat that was hard to swallow, and then generously gave the wine to the werewolf opposite me.
It's not that I don't have a crush on him, but I'm new to everything about dungeons, and I'd love to get in touch with him and learn more about dungeons.
"Really give it to me?" The werewolf's eyes were full of surprise, and the Tong Emperor, who had finished eating the meat, didn't bother to pay attention to all this, closed his eyes and continued to recuperate.
I nodded, and the werewolf was very happy, and shouted at me, "Generous wolf brother, I have made you a friend in the night." ”
"Nightscream?" I wonder why he doesn't have a wolf word in his name. But he also stretched out his hand and said, "Wolf man." ”
He held my hand, but his eyes became truly respectful: "The wolf clan that can use the wolf character as a surname is no longer the bottom." Although you are not a nobleman, you are also a noble citizen, and I am very happy that you are approachable. ”
Is that so? It seems that Emperor Tong said too little to me, so I can only smile and continue to play my taciturn role.
The train continued to move, and Ye Xiao, who had made my new friend, became very excited, and kept bragging to me on the train, and there was not much difference between demons and humans in this regard.
I quietly drove the conversation and asked what I wanted to know.
It wasn't until the train stopped two more stops that I finally got a glimpse of some of the basics of the dungeon.
For example, there are 8 big cities in the dungeon, which are named after the four divine beasts of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu and Gluttony, Hanqi, Chaos, and Qiqi, in addition to a special big city, called the City of Foxes. The reason is because although the fox clan is not a divine beast or a fierce beast, it can have a special existence, and its status is no less than that of a divine beast or a fierce beast, such as the nine-tailed fox, such as the sky fox.
When I heard the name Sky Fox, my heart beat faster suddenly, and I even thought that we shouldn't go to the so-called Blue Dragon City, but to the City of Foxes? After all, isn't Emperor Tong's identity also a fox clan?
In addition to these eight big cities, a special city, the world of the dungeon also has more than forty small cities, these small cities are not strictly divided, listening to the description of the big ones may be like the general third and fourth tier small cities on the ground, and the small ones may not be much larger than a village.
After all, after so many years of breeding, it is very underestimated that the world of dungeons can have such a scale.
Think about it, should the living environment be poor to cause such a result? There seemed to be something else hidden in this, but Nightscream didn't say much.
In addition, I also know the class of the dungeon, of course, the lowest is the slaves of the human race, but they are the largest in number, Ye Xiao has sighed more than once that the birth of the demon clan is not easy, in addition to the fact that it is not easy to have offspring, the more powerful it is, the less likely it is to have offspring, and it also involves some issues of racial origin.
But in this way, the demon clan that is not easy to give birth to is also firmly pressed by the last Terran slaves.
On top of the slaves, there are untouchables, and these untouchables may also be humans who have a certain amount of merit and have left the status of slaves, or they may be the thin-blooded descendants born between demons and humans. Compared with slaves, they have more freedom, and only more freedom, but they are still engaged in very low-level labor, and they are not qualified to practice, because they have no property for their own cultivation.
Above the untouchables, there are civilians, speaking of which Night Howling is a civilian, and the composition of civilians is similar to that of untouchables, because in addition to the demon race, the human race can also be a commoner! According to Nightscream's words, the survival of the dungeon is actually dependent on the world on the ground, so it is inevitable to have contact with humans, and he commented that humans seem to have a natural talent for business, and the ability to drill camps in various ways, in these cases, there are also a large number of humans among the civilians.
Like a pyramid, slaves and commoners constituted the lowest and largest level of the dungeon's class society, after which the number began to decrease dramatically.
Above the commoners is naturally the noble people.,It seems that I'm in the class.,And the noble people can only become this class if the demon clan has a relatively strong bloodline.,How to judge the strong bloodline.,In addition to the facial characteristics are closer to what they have turned into.,You can also judge the ability.。
Ability is the most inexplicable thing, as if it can be obtained through a lot of practice.
From this point of view, the barrier between civilians and nobles is not completely sealed, if you have a relatively strong ability, even if your blood is not so strong, you can become a nobleman.
The demons in the dungeon also attach great importance to cultivation.
The nobles generally exist in the form of families, and attach great importance to bloodline, because it is very likely that a nobleman will be born between the descendants of the strong bloodline, so a nobleman has his own family that can be traced back to under normal circumstances. But this is just the usual situation, since there is also room for commoners to rise to nobles, so there are also many wandering nobles who do not have families.
The rest are the last two classes.
That's the nobility and the royal family.
The nobles understood very well, they were demons with extremely strong blood, and there were hardly many human bloodlines affecting them, they had most of the inheritance of their ancestors, and they had the ability of real demons.
The last royal family is even stricter, that is, after a certain catastrophic era has passed, fleeing into the dungeon, the real demon they are combined with the nobles with the strongest bloodline, and the purest bloodline in the descendants is the royal family, the so-called purest bloodline, that is, there is no or almost no human blood.
In addition, there are some powerful demon nobles, who are also royalty. This is very winding to say, but it is very simple to understand, for example, a rabbit demon and a tiger demon, the ability is not at the same level at all! Therefore, a demon born of a powerful race with a strong bloodline that can be called a nobleman can rise to the royal family.
You must know that the more powerful the monster, the more difficult it is to give birth, not to mention that the bloodline is required to be thick to a certain extent. So, it makes sense that they are royalty.
The reason why I inquired so clearly about the division of classes was actually to measure the strength of these demons.
In my heart, I probably think that the strength of the noble people is already equivalent to that of a fierce beast or an ordinary demon of transformation, and maybe it is even more powerful, because from the words of Ye Xiao, I know that it is not easy to survive in the dungeon, and the atmosphere of cultivation is also very strong, and the demons bred in this way must be extremely powerful.
Can you imagine how difficult it is for their status to be rejected by the people on the ground, and the real demons will not recognize them, and they are driven underground? The power of such an oppressive race is terrifying.
But in comparison, these demons finally chose the demon and were proud of the demon! After all, compared to a demon and a human being, a demon represents absolute power.
As for the strength of the nobles should be equivalent to that of ordinary demons, this is not easy to judge, because there must be a huge disparity between the strong and the weak, so I can only draw a rough one.
What about royalty? It's even harder for me to judge, just like the strength of the big demon will be different because of the different races, and the gap in performance will be large, and the difference between strength and weakness will be huge, but it will never go beyond the scope of the big demon and reach the level of the legendary demon!
What is a Celestial Demon? It should be a monster close to the power of the four fierce beasts in its heyday, it is definitely not a category that I can deal with now, although I have faced the four fierce beasts, but that is only when they came to this world after suppressing their own strength and paying the price, it is not their real strength at all.
As for what level the four fierce beasts should be, they should be quasi-demon gods in strict division.
On top of that, there are the legendary four divine beasts, as well as the golden crow, the phoenix, the unicorn, etc., which I feel are nonsense when I hear it, why not pull it again, to pull it to the body of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, this kind of Pangu left eye incarnation, representing the existence of the real sun, is actually the incarnation of a three-legged golden crow?
I'll admit I thought too far.
However, Ye Xiao also told me a legend about the dungeon, he was not sure, so he could only say that it was a legend, he told me that in fact, above the royal family, there are real demon emperors in the dungeon, they never show up, or rarely show up, and they are actually the descendants of some legendary demons, although they are also born with people, but even if the real demon is in front of them, they must maintain twelve points of respect.
And what is the legendary demon, the names of the eight main cities are already very telling.
If, really, there is such a thing? I shook my head, my head was a little swollen, and I could only think of Shi Tao and Chen Chong.
Shi Tao has no doubt that he is a glutton, not an adult, and a gluttonous who has suppressed his strength in the world on the ground As for Chen Chong, what does he say? Could it be that this dungeon is considered a demon emperor? Then, the Demon Emperor is not terrible at all! Chen Chong's strength has not grown much at all, and even Shi Tao is far inferior.
However, you can't compare the demons on the ground with the demons that have been passed down from ancient times like the dungeon, they are not the same situation, there is a difference, although I can't say exactly what kind of difference it is.
The above are the most basic things in the dungeon that I know, and there are some bits and pieces, which are not so important, for example, there are human beings among the nobles and nobles, but this extremely small probability will not affect the overall situation, I don't have to care.
For example, trains have only been used on a large scale in dungeons in the past 20 years, and they are only interesting to listen to.
Unconsciously, in the midst of the continued conversation, another stop passed, and in this station, the Tong Emperor woke up.
