Chapter 20: The Revolutionary Party
"Have you ever heard of 'Psychics?'" Sieg suddenly remembered the book "Psychic School and Alchemy" that was still in his storage bag, and the text in it was a kind of text he had never seen before.
"Psychic?" Jon frowned, thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Haven't heard of it." However, there are countless elementary schools on the mainland, and some of them that I haven't heard of are normal. ”
When Sig heard this, he didn't ask any more.
The two then talked a lot, and learned from the Middle Sig that Jon had also gone to the royal capital to join the Wilden family's Guards Legion.
"Why did you travel thousands of miles to the royal capital to join the Wilden family's Guards?" Sieg was a little surprised when he heard this.
After all, the Reidman family is also a powerful family with a first-class magician, although it is not as good as the Wilden family, but it is not too far behind.
Jon's face became visibly resolute at this moment, and he clenched his fists and said fiercely, "I am not a direct descendant of the Reidman family, they naturally look down on me. ”
"I see. Sieg understood.
It is better to go out and sleep in the open to find your own opportunity.
"What's more, the Weldon family's Guards Legion is extremely well paid. Speaking of this, Jon couldn't help but say, "In the Guards Legion, the best privates among them will be selected every month, and they will have the opportunity to enter the Wilden family's treasure house and choose a treasure. ”
"It's the Wilden family's treasure trove of Guardians of Blackcastle, and the resources in it are all treasures that are hard to buy. Jon's eyes were fiery: "What's more, if you perform well, you will have the opportunity to do experiments and research with the descendants of the Wilden family with the first-level magicians!"
Sieg was also a little hot as Jon said, and he was looking forward to this trip to the royal capital
......
The train roared to the royal capital station, and before the conductors woke up, Sieg and Jon quietly left in the surging crowd.
The momentum of the royal capital is far from being comparable to that of a port city like Linton City, and from a distance, tall buildings one after another are densely packed, one after another.
In the central square of the most central part of the royal capital, a huge black tower rises into the sky, reaching into the sky. It is said to be the private tower of a powerful mystic in the kingdom.
The prosperity of the royal capital is also self-evident, the shops on the streets and alleys are lined up next to each other, and the pedestrians on the road are surging, and there is a noise.
Horse-drawn carriages passed through the streets, ladies in ornate corsets, and gentlemen in hats held hands, while some younger girls held folding fans and talked merrily.
Today, the royal family of the Kingdom of Blackcastle, which also belongs to the Wilden family, wields secular power, and since the Seven Years' War, after a long period of repairs, the kingdom seems to have returned to its former prosperity.
Sig and Jon followed the map's instructions, passing through one full junction after another, towards the Legion of the Royal Guard.
When the two of them crossed an intersection, a white graceful figure rushed in front of them, and the figure was extremely fast, flashed, and disappeared into the alley next to it.
It was followed by a squad of policemen with guns, led by a fat policeman, who was out of breath and shouted: "Catch the chaotic party for me, don't let these Februaryists escape!"
Only then did Sig notice that many plainclothes police or security teams were rushing towards this side, surrounding the alley where the girl had not entered.
"It's the Februaryists. Jon's face changed slightly as he looked at the many policemen in front of him.
A smile tugged at the corner of Sig's mouth, and he said, "It seems that the February Party has not been completely wiped out." ”
The February Party, also known as the Revolutionary Party. At the end of the Seven Years' War, the Kingdom of Blackcastle was on the verge of collapse. At this time, a large number of Februaryists, who had been lurking in the military government, took the opportunity to revolt in a big way.
These Februaryists were heavily influenced by the Great Eagle Republic, and their goal was to overthrow the monarchy and establish a republic.
The uprising, which took place in February, was officially declared a February rebellion, but the people sympathized with them and called it the February Revolution. These February Party members were later massively purged by the secret police of the Kingdom and suffered heavy losses. But after so many years, it seems to have regained a little bit of vitality.
"Why, Brother Sieg is also a supporter of the republic?" Jon laughed, and Sieg was not surprised that he had already expressed his willingness to support the republic during his conversation on the train.
"I don't care. Seeger shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm not interested in politics. ”
The two of them looked over there a few times, and the policemen looked angry at the moment, and it seemed that they hadn't caught the person who had just flashed past.
"Let's go. Sig said.
The two of them did not go far before they found a huge banner hanging from the roof of a trading house, which read, "The decaying royal power will eventually fall, and the power belongs to all the people." ”
It seems that this is the man's work just now, no wonder so many police officers have been dispatched to arrest him.
Sig is not very optimistic about these revolutionaries in his heart, it is very simple, behind the kingdom of Blackcastle is the guardian Wilden family, which is a powerful mysterious family that has rumored to be a second-level magician, and if you don't defeat the Wilden family, you don't want to overthrow the royal power at all.
......
After that little episode, Sieg and Jon finally reached the door of the Guards.
The Legion of the Guard, which is well-known in the occult world, is actually not very well-known among mortals, and most people are unaware of the existence of this organization. Moreover, the location of the headquarters of the Guards Corps is also very remote, located in a dark and narrow alley, and the two of them searched for a long time to find it.
The arrival of the two zero-level magicians made those ordinary soldiers dare not slack off, and they were quickly led into the interior to sit.
Soon, a middle-aged man came out to meet them.
This man was dressed in a military uniform, his military boots thumped on the ground, his figure was exceptionally strong, his body was tall, and standing in front of him gave people a huge pressure, as if facing a fierce tiger.
"My name is Buzz Wilden. The man introduced himself: "Currently a colonel in the Guards Regiment. ”
Sieg and Jon stood up one after another, they could feel the aura of this person, there was definitely the realm of a high-level apprentice!
This man is strong!
"As is customary, please show your referee. "The requirements for the Guards Regiment are very strict, and not everyone can enter, especially now that the revolutionaries are active, it is necessary to have a guarantor.
Sig took out the business card and handed it over, and Jon naturally had a corresponding recommender. ’
Bas looked at the two of them's recommended business cards and said, "Very well, since you have a guarantor, then you can come to me for an internship first." ”
"The internship period lasts for half a year, and if you perform well, you can become a regular in advance. After you become a regular, I can call the shots and award you the rank of second lieutenant directly. How?" Buzz glanced at the two of them.
This man acted decisively and without dragging his feet.
"Yes!" Sig and Jon looked at each other, and naturally agreed without hesitation.
The Guards are a secret unit of the Wilden family, and the mortal soldiers here are all selected from all over the country, and each one is a ten-strong presence on the battlefield.
In addition to a large number of mortal soldiers, there are many mysterious people with strange and unpredictable strength in the legion, and these mysteries constitute the backbone of the legion.
The legion is not subject to the laws of the kingdom and is not subject to the administrative system of the kingdom, and is directly under the orders of the Wilden family, whose supreme official is the patriarch of the current Wilden family. The upper echelons of the legion are all veterans of the Wilden family.
