Chapter Twenty-Nine: You Really Don't Blame Me
At dusk, Patch knocked on the door of the Oriental Wood.
"That...... Brother Dongfang, shall we pack the food for you, or will we go with us to eat? ”
Dongfang Mu stood up: "You're welcome, let's just go eat together." ”
Patch smiled and said, "Ah, that's great, I also think that the big guys can eat together, there are more dishes, and you can eat hot." I thought you were the kind of person who was very difficult to deal with, so it would be nice to be able to eat together. ”
Dongfang Mu tilted his head slightly: "Am I not easy to deal with?" Did I make such an impression on you? ”
Patch's expression became solemn, "Although my mother told me to speak tactfully...... But yes, you're looking too serious. ”
"It's the first time I've been said that......" Hearing Patch say this, the memories of when he used to be a human suddenly came flooding back to his heart.
It is true that he has never been said to be serious before, on the contrary, he used to be quite a sand sculpture, even if he was a subordinate of the unit, he was a "Brother Feng", and there was basically no seriousness.
But when I think back to a previous detail, I can only think of "chsm" and "sacrifice to the sky!" Worship the sky! Memories of the underworld. So, he gave up and continued to think about it.
Perhaps, I was not a human being a long time ago.
With Nia with them, the two followed Patch to the dining room.
As soon as the door was opened, a wave of heat was used, and the noise drowned out the two of them.
In the cafeteria, a steaming meal was already served, and the soldiers at the outpost were talking around the table.
Many of the topics discussed in this discussion involve Dongfang Mu Benzun, so when Dongfang Mu pushed the door in, the voice was obviously a few degrees smaller.
However, under Patch's introduction, after the formal dinner, the atmosphere of the whole restaurant became cheerful again.
Especially after Dongfang Mu took off the full-coverage helmet, he exposed his face in front of many soldiers, which caused a lot of admiration.
"Wow, good fellow, your appearance is as powerful as your physique!"
"With this appearance, if you were born in a noble family with a higher class, there would be countless eldest ladies who asked for marriage, right?"
Dongfang Mu didn't care about the praise of these soldiers, but Nia unconsciously puffed up her chest.
The majesty of domination is from the inside out, and these ants can feel a trace of domination, and they are not completely useless.
Many people came over and asked Dongfang Mu this and that, and Dongfang Mu also responded patiently one by one.
He told them that the outside world was vast, with countless mineral deposits, cattle and horses, and abundant resources.
It's just that I don't know why, these soldiers in front of me are not interested in the temptation he proposed.
He originally thought that "gold is everywhere, and there are opportunities to make a fortune everywhere" is a common trick technique all over the world, and it was by this that a large number of people discovered the New World, and now it is not a problem to rely on this trick to get out of the east of Altalia.
How do you know, don't say that you fool the upper class, even the low-level soldiers don't eat this set.
Is it true that everyone in Altalia is rich, and they are not greedy, and they have already taken what they need?
He turned to Patch, "You guys don't seem to be very interested in getting out of the Misty Forest, is there any special reason?" ”
Patch picked up a glass of fruit wine, brought it to his lips and took a sip, and said a little dryly, "First of all, it is naturally the reason for the demonic beasts in the misty forest. Although I am a soldier and should not say such things, the thoughts of our low-level soldiers are still ...... You get the idea, right? Who wants to die? ”
Dongfang Mu heard this and didn't say anything. Judging from the strength of the garrison stationed here, it is indeed a bit difficult to deal with the wild monsters in the misty forest, but the wild monsters are just wild monsters after all, and they can't become climate, and they don't need to be afraid to this point, right?
In addition, their title of "Warcraft" also made Chen Feng feel a little weird, it sounded like it was quite strong, but in fact, it was the Void Bone Dragon.
He silently took a sip of wine and suppressed the desire to complain in his heart.
"If you let the Knights make a move, it won't be difficult to clear the Misty Forest." Dongfang Mu said.
Patch laughed at the time: "You don't understand, how can the old men of the Knights work for our low-level soldiers?" ”
What he didn't know was that when he said the three words "you don't understand", Nia burst out with a powerful murderous aura, but fortunately, Chen Feng stopped it in time, and Patch's head did not fly to the ceiling. Of course, Patch himself was unaware of this thrilling adventure, and he continued:
"When you first came to Altalia, the most important thing you should know is that the Knights are the private force of those great lords, and the great lords want to rely on the Knights to protect their land, how can they let them go to the Misty Forest to die?"
"Those silver-level knights you saw during the day today, they are either sent by the family to the border with mixed qualifications, or they are not treated by the eldest lord and sent over, the really powerful knights are all in the royal capital, they will not move easily, as soon as they move, it means that the people above them have moved."
Dongfang Mu pondered for a while, and then said, "Knights, shouldn't they be loyal to the king alone?" ”
"It used to be like this," Patch said, "a long time ago. But not anymore. Since the previous kings opened up the right to knighthood, many nobles had their own knights, and whoever had more knights could speak in one place. Nominally, all the knights still belong to the Order, but these knights usually live in the territories of the major nobles, and they prefer to listen to the orders of the nobles above. ”
Patch added: "Of course, this is also a last resort, after all, the king alone cannot govern the whole of Altalia, and without these nobles, Altalia would not have had so many towns and become so prosperous. ”
"Is it prosperous? ......" Dongfang Mu looked at the light-filled ceiling and reserved his opinion on Patch's judgment.
Patch blew his nose and said: "If you can't get out of the Misty Forest, it's all up to the big men above, if you spread your news to the royal capital, the wind direction above may not change, of course, I don't want to go to the Misty Forest to fight." ”
Dongfang Mu asked with interest: "You don't want to get rich?" ”
"Dreaming!" Patch said, "The 'gold all over the ground, cattle and horses' and so on, even if they are defeated, aren't they all big men, can they be distributed to our ordinary soldiers?" We're soldiers by profession. ”
Pache gave Chen Feng another lesson about Altalia's career system: in this kingdom, everyone has a profession, if your profession is set as a soldier, then you can only rely on military pay to make a living, if your profession is a farmer, then you can only make a living by farming.
If a soldier goes to farm, even if he grows crops, he cannot sell them for money, and if he is discovered, his property will be confiscated, his occupation will be stripped and he will be punished as a slave.
Knights, farmers, workers, soldiers, merchants, nobles, clergy, these professions basically included all the citizens of Altalia, and everyone lived under this system.
Of course, if you feel that your current career is not profitable and you want to change careers, you can do it, but you have to go to the church to "change jobs".
Dongfang Mu patiently listened to Patch's introduction to Altalia's career system, and did not express any opinions, but listened to Patch complain about how strange this system was, while drinking sullenly.
Because this career system was something he came up with on a whim.
"I'm sorry, Altalia citizens," he thought silently in his mind, "and I don't blame me, but I blame RPGs like Dragon Quest." It's all their fault. ”
