Chapter 5 - Legal Affairs Department
The vice-captain was certainly not stupid, but he admitted that he was indeed a little frightened by the name of the defeated one.
This world is dominated by magic.
What is respect, that is, "to worship God and to regard the king's power".
The power of law and the power of the king, that is, the same level and equal, only worship the gods. Of course, the royal power cares about the country, the army, the wealth, and the people. The mages are more concerned about cultivation and refinement, and at most they are a little bit of a pursuit of spell-related resources, and there is no conflict between the two in terms of core needs, which is the foundation of the coexistence of the two powers.
The royal power is naturally represented by the countries of the world, the royal power is large and scattered, and the legal power is almost entirely concentrated in the hands of a single organization.
This organization is called the Legal Management Commission.
The Legal Affairs Committee is an abbreviation, and its full name is the Judicial Affairs Guidance, Arbitration and Management Committee, because the most well-known function is the management of spells and mages, so the world gives it such an abbreviation.
The Legal Management Commission is the holder and enforcer of the legal power of the entire Ploz world, and in order to facilitate the implementation of legal power, the Legal Management Committee has branches in independent countries that have reached a certain scale. It is generally called the Ministry of Legal Affairs of a certain country. For example, Loren Magaga has its own legal department, while small countries like the scattered southern part of the country can only share one legal department.
The Ministry of Justice mentioned by Munamu is actually the branch of the Law Management Commission in the Kingdom of Loren Macaga.
Don't look at it as just a branch, but the status is quite high, the branch is located in the royal capital of Loren Magaga, and there is no branch at the county level, and every county can share a branch point. These points deal with and accept all spell or mage-related matters, and the threshold is very high for non-divisions, and if you want to enter the door to do things, you have to make an appointment first.
As for this hospital, hehe, what do you think?
Although the Legal Department is notoriously big and difficult to get into, there are some things that can make them put down their shelves and deal with them first. The Loser is one of them.
The law loser is an ancient term, and its history of emergence is even earlier than the current major common languages in the mainland, and even earlier than the Ministry of Legal Affairs. The earliest name that can be examined is the ancient Dai dialect of the čåį¯įžčč, but its meaning has never changed - the person who corrupts the glory, order and morality of magic.
From the name, it seems to have a wide range of applications, but in fact, the corrupter must first be a mage - without the power of the spell, you don't even have the qualifications to corrupt the spell.
Speaking of conscience, Munamu said that Ao Zongheng was suspected of being a law violator, which was really not nonsense - first, he knew magic and had the ability to defeat the law, and second, and most importantly, he did not have or show the certification badge of the Legal Control Department. This is in line with the identification of the loser. And on this basis, he killed a civilian who had no ability to resist with a spell, which, in fact, is not the point......
Yes, a mage who does not have a certification badge is suspected of being a loser. As for killing, that is a matter for the secular government, and the Ministry of Justice does not bother to ask about it, unless there are more killings and the means are more cruel.
One of the most important management functions of the Legal Management Department is to issue certification badges to the mages, whether they are sleeve mages, collar mages or robed mages, they are all recognized and issued by the legal management department. The certification does not take into account the political position, the net worth is innocent, even if you collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, the certificate should be issued or the certificate should be issued. Even the king does not have the right to revoke the status of a certified mage, which is why the king is juxtaposed.
There must be a big problem with a mage who does not have a certification under such lenient conditions.
But to give Mu Namu another daring, he only dared to report that he was suspected of being a loser. Yes, the Legal Affairs Department treats those who fail the law very harshly, but it is also not polite to those who mislead and lie about it. In case it is determined that it is a deliberate false report, the legal management department will write a complaint letter, let alone him, and even the head of the county patrol regiment may lose his position.
As for the means that the Ministry of Legal Management will take, from the moment this matter is reported, it is completely out of his predictable range.
Naturally, he didn't know what was going on here, he didn't even know about the Legal Management Department, and he didn't think that he would be reported as a suspected law loser. He killed Timmurray because he had never forgived anyone who betrayed him. He didn't kill Munamu and the others because he never killed indiscriminately.
It's not that he didn't think that leaving these living mouths would bring him trouble such as hunting, but everything depends on good and bad, and he deliberately asked a lot of questions from Gabopol, the Greensleeve Mage, not because he was interested, but because Munamu mistakenly thought that his goal was Gabobo, and planned to track down the whereabouts of the Greensleeve Mage to rescue Gabobo. And this misunderstanding can lure possible retaliation in the wrong direction.
Proud came to Gabobo because he was a Ph.D., and he needed a Ph.D., not Gabrio.
Arrogant wants to find Lance Keitel Lepotin Norio Du Schernashak, but he knows nothing other than this name. Balff was likewise ignorant, but he said it was possible for the Pharadia to know.
Bachelors are researchers and inheritors of all kinds of knowledge in the world of Plozzi except for spells, although they cannot be compared with mages, but they are also quite respected, and the same as mages, the scholars themselves are also graded, the difference is that the level of the scholars mainly depends on their years of experience in teaching, from the lowest level of bachelors, to the highest level of Ph.D. in general, it takes twenty to thirty years. So a Ph.D. means twenty or thirty years of knowledge, and if you can't get the answer from a Ph.D., you won't find it anywhere else.
Ao Zongheng now knows that there are basically Ph.D. scholars in every town, but Ph.D. is a specialty, and he doesn't know where there are Ph.D. Masters who are familiar with mainland surnames and family history, so he can only try his luck at the moment, hoping to get a recommendation from Ph.D. Bachelors.
His first target was the town of Puzhi Tai, which was closest to the town of Paidaun.
In fact, the town of Valu is closer to this, but it is located in the south, which is the direction in which the green-collar mage took Gai Bobo, and Ao Zongheng naturally wants to go in the other direction.
With the lesson of the last time, Ao Zongheng first changed into a set of clothes with no professional characteristics, and avoided the lane along the way, entered the town, and no longer asked the bartender to question, these people are well-informed, but the road is complicated, acting treacherous, and Ao Zongheng doesn't want to waste time on these people anymore.
He directly inquired with ordinary townspeople, anyway, the Pharath was a figure in the town, and most people knew who the Pharadia in the town was.
After walking a few towns in a row, he didn't encounter any more trouble, although others could see that he was a foreigner, but ordinary people were not so curious.
But things didn't go well, he found four Ph.D. scholars, three of whom were not studying in related disciplines, and the remaining one was not, this one was more well-connected and knew many Ph.D. scholars, and he recommended two peers with a good reputation in the field of history. But what made Ao Zongheng depressed was that one of the recommended Ph.D. scholars was actually Gai Bobo of Na Bo Dalun.
Of course, Ao Zongheng won't go to look for Gai Bobo, and besides, he can't find it, and he doesn't know where he was taken for a long time. So he is now rushing to the town of Su Duo, where there is another Ph.D. who is proficient in the history of the surname Yuan, and the history of the mainland.
The town of Sudor is located next door to Gtolenshire, in East Page, and it takes about four or five days to get there. Although the speed of Aozong is faster, if you want to be comfortable, it will take two days.
Although Ao Zongheng does not take the lane when he is in a hurry, he must find a bed to rest at night - although the second child of the Ao family is not a nobleman, he has never treated himself lightly.
Like the Wood Tree Hotel where we stayed tonight, it's the best hotel in town - it's the best, and a room is only three boums.
There aren't many guests in the town's inn, and the inn doesn't have anything to serve other than drinks and noodles. If there is anything you are not used to when you come to this world, it is the problem of eating, not to mention that compared with the Proud Family, it is an ordinary town in Middle-earth, and the food is richer and more delicious than here.
On the side of the Loren Magaga Kingdom, the main crops are the shell and the small flute, plus a small amount of potato crops, although the name is different, it is not much different from the grains of Middle-earth, the main problem is that the cooking techniques here are really simple and crude, and the things made are either rigid or tough, and the taste is only salty and not salty, which really can't arouse the arrogant appetite.
Just as Ao Zongheng was about to rest, he suddenly heard a group of people talking in a deliberately low voice more than ten feet outside the hotel.
Ao's hearing is very good, but he doesn't have a habit of listening to people's walls, but it is really suspicious to gather together to whisper in the cold night of this town.
"Are you sure they're going to go this way? Why haven't they arrived yet?"
"Don't worry, they spent the night in Lamu City yesterday, and they left the city this morning," and then go in the direction of Wangcheng, if you don't go this way, you have to go over Puduoer Mountain, we also contacted the people in Puduoer Mountain before the sun set, and we didn't see them go up the mountain, and no normal person would choose to go over the mountain at night, so they must have walked this way.
"Let's go and prepare first, do the previous drill, remember that everyone has to wait for Toben's signal. A third voice appeared, ending their whispered exchange as well.
Hearing this, Ao Zongheng guessed that these people were waiting for a passing target, and they were obviously not waiting to catch the wind and wash the dust. He decided to follow them to see the excitement, and maybe he could even see the mages on this continent make a move.
The group moved quite quickly, and soon found a hidden position on the road two miles away from the town, and the town was surrounded by fields, but here there was a whole wood, and the trees were dense, but they were all three or four zhang high, not particularly high, so that it was easy to look down on the big trees in the whole area.
However, this is not much trouble for Ao Zongheng, and he doesn't need to see what those people look like, with his sense of qi, he can sense it even dozens of zhang away, so he found a tree that is twenty zhang away from the ambush point, and waited to watch the excitement with his back against the branches.
Perhaps by luck, as soon as he got down, he heard the sound of a slow cart approaching this way.
