Chapter 53: The Pioneer Team
In addition to the disbandment of the five-person team, which is not a big "big event", another thing worth paying attention to is probably that Dongfang Mu has been upgraded to a gold-level adventurer.
One of the thirteen golden people died, and now another one is replaced, and it is still thirteen.
The fact that he became a gold level seems to have the backing of a certain noble family, otherwise this stranger would not have been able to rise to the level so smoothly.
However, he beat the president of the Adventure Guild and made Jude lose so badly, Jude actually promoted him to the gold level, it seems that Jude is actually very generous?
Kane shook his head exaggeratedly, according to normal speaking, Dongfang Mu, a stranger who can knock Jude flying, should have dark gold-level strength.
Only raised him to the gold level, and the two punches that probably hit Jude in the face still had some effect?
However, it would be too scary to just raise an adventurer who has no level to the dark gold level.
The dark gold level is a national-level honorary title, which requires the king, the church, and the guild to participate in the award, and it is impossible to think about this kind of battle for a stranger.
In short, the news that the stranger was promoted to the gold level has become a hot topic on the streets and alleys in a short period of time.
Gold is more than just an honor, becoming a Gold Adventurer means an offering of 30 gold coins per month, additional equipment rations, maid selection slots, priority in mission selection, and retirement security that lasts for a lifetime.
Getting a gold-level seat basically means that you don't have to worry about food and clothing for a lifetime, and you don't have to pursue it for a lifetime.
For the majority of low-level adventurers or soldiers, this stranger is a model of shit luck, and the market knows nothing about how he beat Jude, and it is recognized that the reason why he was promoted is that the "rescue of the princess" is mostly credit, and has little to do with strength.
Regarding the slightly sour rumors in the market, Kane just smiled and didn't speak.
If I had told these people, the stranger had knocked Jude flying with one punch, "and twice!" Twice! "I'm afraid no one will believe it.
The third event is that the kingdom has begun to form a crusading army.
If you want to ask where the crusading army is, it is naturally the crusading army to the east of the Misty Forest.
Kane was still a little surprised by the wind blowing in the palace. The royal power has been in decline for a long time, and if it is not long, it will not allow the church city of Asteria to seize the glory of the royal capital, nor will it make the adventurer's guild the center of the nobles' division of interests.
Whether the Praetorian Guard can form an army now is a question, and now they want to divide their troops to crusade against others, which is simply a fool's dream.
But the wind has already blown out, and it is unlikely that it has come out of nowhere.
According to the grapevine...... No, it was from Lilith that Kane knew that the king had been preparing to form a crusade since the stranger had been to the palace once.
He wondered what means the stranger had used to make the king, who was beleaguered at home and abroad, make such a decision rash.
At least in the community, the common people were very resistant to the king's decision.
The current trend of public opinion is that life is already poor, and it is necessary to move troops to unknown places, which will cost the people and money.
Moreover, most of the children of the nobles who fought bravely were watching from the wall, and if they could not win their unanimous consent, this matter would never be possible.
The king's decree is probably another decree that cannot leave the palace.
On this day, Kane sat in the tavern he knew, but met the stranger who had just been promoted to the gold level adventurer.
"I've investigated clearly," Dongfang Mu sat down beside him with a big grin, ordered a glass of sweet wine, and went straight to the point, "In the entire upper echelons of the church, there are not many people like you who have a firm belief in the Lord. ”
Kane didn't understand why he was saying this, just put down his glass and let out a wry smile.
"Maybe it's because I'm a scholar of clerical history, and I know a lot about the Juggernaut," Kane said, looking reminiscing, "The Juggernaut has become the most familiar and unfamiliar existence of the Altalians, and everyone knows that they should revere the Juggernaut, but they don't know why." ”
"Hmm......" Seeing Dongfang Mu nodded, not knowing what he was thinking, he said, "So I ask again, do you want to be the Pope?" ”
Kane had an awkward expression, he had already expressed surprise the last time he was asked about it, and this time he just wanted to laugh.
Dongfang Mu patted him on the shoulder: "I'm not joking, there is an opportunity to make contributions now, if you can seize it, it will be a matter of course to be promoted to cardinal." ”
"You mean......" Kane looked left and right, leaned forward and whispered, "What about the Crusade?" ”
"Yes."
"Don't be kidding," Kane immediately denied, "don't think too much about politics, such a big thing is not something that the king can decide with a word, and the king doesn't even speak." ”
Dongfang Mu patted him on the shoulder again: "Don't worry, I said that this can be done, you just need to be ready to sign up." ”
Kane was confused: "What did you do?" Where are you sure? ”
Dongfang Mu just smiled slightly.
What he does, in fact, is very simple.
Before being awarded the title of Gold, he found the Van Pou family.
The Van Pou family is a small family, and when he first entered the royal capital, the gold-level female knight named Catalia he met was a member of the Van Pou family.
This family is not as well-established as other families that have been going on for many years, and the reason why they can rank in the royal capital is mainly because they have Catalia, the eldest lady of the gold-level knight.
And for the addition of such a powerful person as Dongfang Mu, they naturally welcomed it, and under the leadership of the master of the Fan Pu family, Catalia was verbally married to Dongfang Mu, a stranger.
Although the major events of life were decided so hastily, the eldest lady had a lot of complaints.
With the affiliation to the Van Pu family, coupled with the merit of rescuing the princess, Dongfang Mu was introduced to the king and received by the king personally.
In this interview, Dongfang Mu only gave one suggestion: "Pioneer team." ”
The so-called "pioneer team" refers to the fact that the king issued a privateer license, and anyone who signed up for a small army of less than 50 people, whether it was a soldier, an adventurer, or a commoner.
Under the joint command, the pioneer team marched eastward, and whichever pioneer team discovered the land, mineral deposits, and beasts encountered on the way could be included in the private property of the pioneer team, which was distributed within the team.
The suggestion was bold, and when the king heard it, his eyebrows were wrinkled together.
He was very skeptical about the feasibility of the decree.
However, Dongfang Mu was quite confident in helping him eliminate hidden worries one by one.
The power of the church, the aristocracy, and the guilds in the country overwhelmed the royal power, and the root cause was that they controlled the army.
The king's royal power has been hollowed out, and trying to win help from the system that has been built can only be said to be a tiger's mouth, with little success.
But in the country, there is a force that is difficult to detect, and that is the ordinary people who can't get by.
As long as the masses are mobilized, the church, the aristocracy, and the guilds cannot be suppressed. Because the power of the masses is far greater than those of them who sit in the deep palace can imagine.
Moreover, the life of these masses is far more difficult than they imagined.
