The Plebeian was the most densely populated area of the Imperial Capital, and unlike the exuberance of the Trade District and the luxury of the Royal Quarter, there were only staggered houses and narrow, winding alleys. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoLilia sat in the "Roast Pig" inn in an unknown alley, feasting on it while listening to Miloca talk about things that worried him.

"Yesterday I was on patrol and stumbled upon an orphanage, the building is old but still intact. Miloca said, and although Lilia, who was sitting across from him, was eating well, he had no appetite at all. Listening to Miloka talk about the orphanage, Lilia's movements were sluggish, but Miloka didn't notice this detail, and continued to talk to herself: "There are more than a dozen orphans, and the young lady who took care of the children told me that the orphanage used to be a chapel, but people became more and more accustomed to going to the newly built cathedral to pray, and it slowly fell into disuse, and was later bought by her grandfather and converted into an orphanage for orphans in the slums. ”

"Isn't that good, what are you worried about?" said Lilia, cutting a piece of pork and handing it to Miloca, "Taste it, it's delicious." ”

Miloka shook her head and said, "The lady also told me that her grandfather had left little property after his death, and that the orphanage soon lost its financial resources, and that it was barely supported by a samurai who grew up in the slums. You know, I'm also an orphan, and when I saw the poor living conditions of my children, I wanted to help in any way I could. ”

"Very good, but if you join the army and earn that little salary, I'm afraid even your own life will be very difficult. ”

"Not exactly," said Miloca, shaking her head again, her face a little relieved, "I had done a good job on my night patrol earlier, and a generous lord gave me eight thousand pas, though that money was nothing for an orphanage......

"You haven't lived in an orphanage, have you?" Lilia interrupted Miloka categorically, "If it's an orphanage in the slums, eight thousand Paz can cover the expenses of a dozen children for nearly half a year. ”

Hearing Lilia say this, Miloka was even more puzzled, although she knew that the children in the orphanage rejected her because they hated the imperial soldiers, but such a "huge sum", why did even the gentle and kind lady refuse without thinking.

"You're going to the orphanage in this dress, aren't you?" Lilia asked, seeing that Miloka acquiesced, she added: "You are wearing the armor of the empire, and naturally you represent the interests of the imperial nobility, representing the class that is completely opposed to the slums, and without the exploitation and oppression of the nobles, there will be no slums." You're lucky that you swaggered into the slums like this, and you weren't killed. ”

Miloka knew that Lilia was exaggerating, but what she had seen and heard in the Southern Empire was enough to prove that the antagonistic relationship between the nobles and the poor was indeed so.

"It's not impossible to help! Don't mess around here, change back to your own leather armor, and make money with your own hands, so that the slum children may be grateful to you." Lilia said.

"But the garrison is completely different from the soldiers of the Watchtower, and I don't know how to ......," Miloka said in dismay.

"Don't be upset! go back and change your clothes now, and then go to the arena and find me, and let Miss Ben show you the way." ”

Lilia put on the same playful appearance as she had at the Watch Fortress, and for no reason, Miloca was always powerless to resist Lilia, so she obediently went back to the Fourth Fortress to change her clothes. Lilia was very satisfied with such an obedient Miloka, and from the first time she met Miloka, she was obsessed with pointing fingers at him, as if it was a great pleasure to influence Miloka's decision.

The crowds in Yingwu Square at dusk were the noisiest time of the day in the Colosseum, and most of the more expensive warriors would be scheduled to face off at this time, not only because more citizens came to have fun at this time after their day's work, but also for the most important reason - apart from lavish dinners, the nobles had little entertainment at sunset. Although the Colosseum is an entertainment venue open to all, it is actually the expensive special seats and the astronomical gambling money of the aristocracy that are the main income of the Colosseum.

Lilia looked at the entrance of the Colosseum for a long time before she could find Miloka in the crowd, and she eagerly greeted her, leading Miloka around the entrance of the contestants at the back of the Colosseum. The hall where the contestants registered was already overcrowded, full of warriors who fought for their lives to make a living, large and small quarrels broke out from time to time, and the employees of the arena struggled to maintain the order that was about to be shattered. Lilia finally squeezed to the counter of Longyan Construction, decisively threw a handful of coins to the registrar behind the counter, pointed to Miloka beside her, and said, "Newcomer, five hundred pas." The registrar glanced at Miloca, impatiently slapped a piece of paper on the counter and said, "Fill out the form." ”

In the Grand Arena, newcomers have to estimate their value before participating in the competition for the first time, and at the same time pay the corresponding management fees, after which the arena will arrange matches for competitors. In order to ensure the fairness and enjoyment of the competition, the managers of the arena have specially designed a series of systems to measure the real level of the participants, distribute the interests of all parties, and indirectly maximize the profits of the arena.

The form filled out by Miloka was eventually exchanged for a half-thumb-sized magic stone - a magic stone made from the Shikachi stone, which was made by the magician of the arena using the magic pattern to enter the details of the contestant's occupation and value - for the warrior participating in the competition, the magic stone is an extremely important proof of identity, which determines what kind of opponent the warrior can choose, what scale of competition he can participate in, and how much money he can earn. After putting away the Magic Stone, Miloka was dragged by Lilia to the Resonance Tower.

"This Resonance Tower can feel the magic stones around you and display the information they record, so that you can pick opponents here in the future, remember to pick someone who is about the same value as you, preferably a little higher than you. Lilia patiently explained to Miloka, but before Miloka could respond, she immediately pointed to the message on the Resonance Tower and said to the arena staff next to her: "Just this 'Magician Kodila', this swordsman next to me fights, please hurry up and arrange it." ”

"I'm not ready, I can't start so soon, you've got to get me used to it. After the arena staff left, Miloca said to Lilia.

"It's okay, it's just a slow magician, stick to him as soon as the fight starts, and he'll definitely kneel down and surrender in less than three rounds. "Lilia clearly has a lot of faith in Miloca.

"Yo! Sure enough, it's not like they don't get together!" The rude greeting forced Lilia and Miloka to turn their heads together, and saw several fighters not far away squeezing towards them.
