Chapter 1567: A Complex Social System

The Holy See, this behemoth, the transcendent being, dominates a vast territory in which there are many states and various forces are intertwined, but these forces are nothing compared to the Holy See.

The Holy See, above this territory, is a transcendent existence, and his words affect the change of dynasties, the survival of a force, and all power countries survive under the rules set by the Holy See.

In this territory, the Holy See is the well-deserved boss, and below this, the best of the mercenary unions and the magician unions are the two huge civil organizations, and under the Holy See, it is just a matter of one sentence that can affect whether they exist or not, and the Holy See allows you to save zài before you can save zài.

In the territory ruled by the Holy See, it is still the system of states, from bottom to top, they are principalities, kingdoms, and empires, and the existence of these countries is the same as the East, but the difference is that the national fortunes of these countries are all controlled by the Holy See, which is why the Holy See can determine the key to the rise and fall of a country.

On this land, the establishment of a state is not to pray to heaven, but to obtain the permission of the Holy See, otherwise you will be an illegal organization, and you will be exterminated, and no one will dare to live in a country without the permission of the Holy See.

In the territory ruled by the Holy See, near the Doomsday Volcano, there is a powerful empire called the Humba Empire, which is extremely large, with a population of more than 100 billion, and a vast territory.

The Humba Empire, the largest city near the Doomsday Volcano, called Ironstone City, is one of the fifth-class cities in the empire, with a permanent population of more than 20 million and a height of thousands of meters. Dominant.

Ironstone City is named because there are several super-large iron ore veins on the side, which are rich in various precious iron ores.

At noon that day, outside the Iron and Stone City, Tang Tian and the others came here, and Lisi pointed to the Xiongcheng in front of them and exclaimed: "This is the Iron and Stone City." As a fifth-order city in the Hungarian Empire, there are seventh-order powerhouses in the town, and there are eighth-order magicians in the sky above the city who have arranged a powerful formation to protect it, if you want to break through this city, you need at least three million troops, and you must have at least ten or more eighth-order powerhouses to join forces to attack for at least ten days."

Hearing Lisi's introduction, Tang Tian raised his eyebrows, an eighth-order powerhouse, he was already a figure close to the realm of Tongtian. Ten people with such a character will have to attack for ten days to break through this iron and stone city, you can imagine how dangerous it is here, and in these ten days, I am afraid that the reinforcements of the Hungarian Empire will also arrive, and there is no chance to break through it at all.

"In this ironstone city, there are not only the large-scale distribution of mercenary unions, the establishment of mercenary groups that can leave and right the fifth-level mercenary group, but also the existence of the magician union. It's all transcendent existence zài, this city. In addition to the mercenary union and the magician's union, there is also the management of the Hungarian Empire stationed here, a total of three forces that no one dares to offend lightly, of course, in the world shrouded in divine power, these three forces are still incomparable to the Holy See branch in the city. In this iron and stone city, there is the distribution of the Holy See, which is a blue-clothed archbishop, but the people of the Holy See generally do not care, of course. It's not ordinary," Liz continued.

After having a preliminary understanding of this ironstone city, Tang Tian nodded secretly, and then said: "Let's go, let's go to the city, and then take over the promotion task of the mercenary group, after the promotion, recruit the members to expand the mercenary group, and strive to catch up with the wolf mercenary group as soon as possible, by the way, where is the headquarters of the wolf mercenary group, do you know where the headquarters of the wild wolf mercenary group is?"

Lisi shook her head and said, "The headquarters of the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group is not here, and I don't know where it is, but the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group is a third-level mercenary group, and they also have people on missions in this city."

"Well, let's go......", it's enough to get these, Tang Tian doesn't want the Green Leaf Mercenary Group to be finished by the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group before it grows up, so it's good that it won't match it for the time being.

It's not troublesome to enter the city, it's nothing more than to pay a certain entrance fee, which is the same everywhere, after all, the wild is dangerous, and you won't have to worry about being attacked by Warcraft and beasts when you enter the city, and you should pay a certain protection fee while being protected, which should be the practice in all civilizations.

After entering the Iron and Stone City, Tang Tian found that the qiē here is based on cold colors, whether it is the buildings, the streets, the city walls, or even people's clothing, they are all cold colors, which makes people feel a little depressed for no reason, of course, different civilizations have different styles, maybe people living here think that this is fashionable, maybe not.

After all, the Green Leaf Mercenary Group is still too small, the total number of people is less than twenty, and the weakest one of them is only one hundred and tenth, barely able to become a professional, you can imagine how downtrod the Green Leaf Mercenary Group is.

Fewer people means good arrangement, and under the leadership of Lisi, the group lived in a small hotel and settled down.

Perhaps the reason why the territorial civilization led by the Holy See is biased towards Westernization, even in this small hotel, there is a lot of people, and many people walk around with a glass of wine, talking loudly and arrogantly.

After Tang Tian and his party entered the hotel, it caused a short period of boos, after all, Ji Ya and Lisi were so amazing, they were almost exactly the same in their own right, and anyone who saw them couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Although there was a lot of boos, no one came up to find trouble, the kind of bloody scene of a beautiful woman appearing with this brainless guy coming up to tease did not appear, people are not stupid, such a beautiful woman, not to mention their strength, if they are bullied, even if there is no backstage, just need to say hello, I am afraid that there will be countless people who will beat the guy who is looking for trouble to please them in order to be courteous.

After the group settled down, Lisi and Ji Ya acted alone and went to the mercenary union to take over the mercenary group promotion task, Tang Tian asked the three-headed flying dragon to protect secretly, although nothing should happen in the city, but it is not wrong to be careful.

When they went to pick up the task, Tang Tian also took the time to go around the Iron and Stone City a few times, and had a general understanding of the city, the mercenary union, the magician union, the branch of the Holy See, and the city lord of the Hungarian Empire stationed here, and other places of authority Tang Tian went to take a look, and had a general understanding of the city.

The so-called glimpse and see the whole picture is like this. In the city of iron and stone, the branch of the Holy See is respected, but they almost don't care about things, they are inviolable, but I am afraid that a word is more effective than the emperor of the Hungarian Empire, secondly. The law of this city is still formulated by the Hungarian Empire, and the management is also the official of the empire, as for what mercenary union such an organization has to act in secret in accordance with the laws of the Hungarian Empire, and the mage union is also a transcendent existence, living a group of otaku who are devoted to magic, and they don't care about anything at all, but the strength of the magician makes people dare not ignore their existence.

From such a frame structure, Tang Tian can see it. The Hungarian Empire and even the entire area ruled by the Holy See may have been managed in this way, which gave Tang Tian a preliminary understanding of the institutions of theocratic rule.

In this Iron and Stone City, there are also many strong people, not to mention others, just the Mercenary Guild, the Magician's Guild, the Holy See Branch, and the City Lord's Mansion made Tang Tian feel more than a dozen extremely dangerous aura, which he didn't dare to provoke for the time being, of course, Tang Tian would not be afraid of being provoked by others.

A quick stroll around the city. Tang Tian also discovered a phenomenon, that is, in a large city with more than 20 million people. Ordinary people don't live very well, they are completely exploited, and their usual income is barely enough to make ends meet, so don't think about saving or anything.

Those who are doing well are those who are organized and have a backstage, such as mercenaries. For example, magicians, such as clergy, such as official administrators, these people's lives can be regarded as good, and the lives of ordinary people can be described as dire and miserable.

It is precisely because of such layers of hierarchical concepts. This has created that everyone wants to become a professional, become a magician, and be able to blend into the Holy See then the ancestral tomb will be smoking, yes, in this Iron and Stone City, there are special academies, and ordinary children can be tested to see if they have magical talents, and the good ones will be picked up by the Holy See first, and the bad ones can stay in the academy to receive magic or vindictive training, and after graduation, they decide to stay according to their achievements, become a mercenary or enter the magician's union, etc., depending on their own opportunities, of course, It is also common for people who live in the house to become unemployed vagrants after graduation.

For this theocratic society, the model of the academy made Tang Tian's eyes light up, this is almost a feeling of advanced civilization, unlike the cultivation system in the East, the secret techniques of the exercises are controlled in the sect, want to learn? Apprentice, this point Tang Tian feels that the Eastern model is not as good as this Western model, at least in terms of popularization, of course, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, the Eastern model is strictly speaking to take the elite route, while the West is to take the popular route, who is good and who is not good is not good to make a conclusion.

In the Western model, there is also a kind of aristocracy that makes Tang Tian more curious, aristocrats, as the name suggests, they are born more noble than ordinary people, ordinary people have to give way when they walk on the road, it is okay to kill ordinary people, they are born with a sense of superiority, and the so-called saying that the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people does not work here.

All kinds of rules, people, organizations, forces, constitute a complex social system, although complicated, but he has steadily continued, the so-called existence of zài is reasonable, naturally there are other rules of existence zài in it.

After a general understanding of the general system of this society, Tang Tian returned to the hotel again, and while waiting for Lisi and the others to return, he also watched a farce.

In fact, it was a group of people who drank too much because of a trivial matter, and after a fist and foot broke the head and bleed, the hotel made a fuss, and then the boss came out with a smile to ask for compensation, and then the two sides put down the cruel words and agreed to do it again, and then it was over.

"Hey, brother, look at you very faced, new here"? When Tang Tian was bored and drank a little bitter here, which was claimed to be the best wine, a young man patted Tang Tian on the shoulder and said familiarly.

Glancing at the other party lightly, Tang Tian said speechlessly: "I'm a newcomer, but after your eyes stayed on the ring on my hand thirteen times, and after glancing at me eight times, you walked over and tried to put your hand into my arms, and I was found in a fraction of a second, if your claws don't take it back, I promise to chop him off immediately, do you believe it?"

Tang Tian's words made the other party's face stiffen, smiled brightly, waved his hand as if nothing happened, shrugged his shoulders and left.

"Sure enough, in this kind of Western civilization, thieves are always alive and anywhere", taking a sip of bitter wine, Tang Tian sighed to himself sincerely.

After the thief who stole himself and couldn't leave, Tang Tian found at least ten pairs of eyes scanning himself, and smiled bitterly in his heart, yes, he was targeted by a gang of thieves as a fat sheep, just aim at it, as long as you don't provoke me, otherwise whoever reaches out will chop his hand!

Soon after, the small inn was quiet again, and then, the amazing Lisi and Ji Ya appeared at the door, walking straight towards Tang Tian, under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes in amazement, anger and jealousy, the two beautiful girls came to Tang Tian's side, roughly stating that they had received the task smoothly, and there was no accident.

However, in this process, Tang Tian could see that a thief wanted to bump into Xiao Fei who walked in under the pretext of going out to steal, but Xiao Fei grabbed the claw of the place with one hand, and broke it for him with a click, and immediately wailed.

Thieves all have gangs, and when some thieves hidden in the crowd saw that the members had broken their hands and wanted to come out, they were swept around by Xiao Fei's cold eyes, and suddenly stopped coming out of the group.

Only then did Ji Ya and the task they took over was very simple, in the distance of Ironstone City, there was a group of robbers, the scale was not large, but they hijacked the precious iron ore of Ironstone City several times, the task was to exterminate this group of robbers, and after delivery, not only could they get a feeless commission, but the Green Leaf Mercenary Group could also be promoted to the second-level mercenary group smoothly.

"Well, let Xiao Fei go with you, after completing the task, you can find a way to recruit team members, it doesn't matter whether the strength is strong or weak, try not to let some ill-intentioned guys get in", Tang Tian valued Lisi and said, he didn't plan to go out in person, and Xiao Fei could completely handle it.

Immediately he secretly instructed the three-headed flying dragon not to show his true body if it was not necessary, Tang Tian always remembered that the Holy See had specially mobilized the people to arrest him not long ago, and if he showed his true body, he didn't have to think about it, and it would inevitably provoke the people of the Holy See to stick to him like kraft candy.
