Chapter 85: Rendezvous and Resolution
When Panda and the others reunited with Wu Mian and others, Wu Mian's injury was almost healed.
Wangdu people's anti-drug ability is strong, but their physique is weak. This is something that can't be helped. After all, they are a group of civilians in terms of setting.
The upper class in the royal capital is roughly divided into four groups.
The first is the royal family. They have noble bloodlines and powerful strength, but their population is sparse. The stronger the bloodline, the more difficult it is to breed offspring. This is almost one of the basic ideas of Oriental fantasy, from the Classic of Mountains and Seas to the legends of the Tang and Song Dynasties, to Most of the Zhuan Zhu owners of modern Everbright fantasy literature follow this idea. The so-called balance of Heaven and Dao is obviously more in line with the Eastern worldview than the Western-style fantasy where a certain race is often strong and viable.
Although "New World" is divided into two continents, east and west, none of the designers are Westerners.
Under the royal family, there are two groups: the royal capital aristocracy and the meritorious aristocracy. Most of the former have no fiefs and are mainly engaged in civilian jobs; the latter generally have fiefs but are not too large and are mainly engaged in military jobs. The combination of the two is the core strength of the royal family, which is used to suppress the lords of various places.
The nobles of the royal capital rely on the inheritance of the family. They have been learning knowledge since childhood, and have received training in anti-drugs, so that they have excellent abilities and can serve the royal family. The meritorious nobles rely on personal force. They are all promoted by meritorious deeds. If future generations are neither willing to transfer to civil service, nor continue to make appropriate merits, their status will decline.
This system is obviously not a Westernized political system, but imitates the inner and outer courts of China. I have to say that the ancestors of the East really exhausted their minds in terms of superstructure, and designed them extremely finely and properly. .
As for the last group of the upper class in the capital, they were naturally the priests. Although they are powerful, they are bound by their own beliefs and teachings, and they do not pose any threat to the kingship. On the contrary, whenever a demon appears, the clergy will always follow one after another, bravely fight at the forefront, and have made countless merits for the kingdom, even for all mankind, and for the whole world.
The poison in Sleepless comes from a poisonous snake. This poisonous snake is very poisonous, which makes people stiff and the energy in the body is confused. Of course, most people don't need the latter effect, because after being bitten, they will die within 20 to 30 seconds, and there is no time to even rescue them. The physique of mages is generally not much higher than that of ordinary people, and they mainly rely on magic to enhance their physique, so being shot by an arrow tempered with this kind of snake venom is almost a death.
However, sleepless characters have the ability to resist poison. Coincidentally, this kind of snake venom is precisely one of several poisons specially trained by the nobles of the royal capital.
So after being poisoned, although he temporarily fell into a coma, his life was not in danger. Not to mention that Xingzhao cast a spell on him in time to enhance his physique, even if he did nothing, he would be able to wake up after a while.
Unfortunately, being able to resist toxins does not mean being completely immune to toxins. So these days he has been lying in bed to recuperate, relying on the body's self-healing ability to get through the poisoning effect.
The group of people brought by Panda included both priests and druids. As soon as they met, they brushed a few spells. The residual toxins on Wu Mian's body were quickly removed, and the whole person recovered.
Then, everyone started talking about business.
"Those who tried to assassinate me were a group of adventurers who worshiped demons." Wu Mian, of course, would not be idle during this period of time. With corpses in their hands, it was easy to find out relevant news.
"At that time, Zhen Cannian and I sent the corpse to Tarakhan City." He Yin said, "The atmosphere in Tarakhan City was still very tense. The former intelligence chief committed suicide, and the new intelligence chief is like a hot pot. The ants are circling around. As soon as I heard that there was a corpse with a devil tattoo on it, it came faster than a rabbit burning its butt."
"Did he say anything?" Zhangsun Wu asked.
"No, he just praised us a lot, and then gave us a reward - the number is really large, Landius is dumbfounded." Zhen Cannian said with a smile, "I am also surprised, the experience The rewards for value and prestige are really good. Most importantly, we also activated a quest."
"Tracking down demon followers?" Panda asked.
"That's right, that's the mission!" Zhen Cannian smiled and said, "Panda, if we hand you over, how many rewards should we get?"
Panda laughed too.
Of course, this is just a joke, not to mention how Panda, as an orc, became a legendary paladin of the God of Suffering, just the fact that he is still alive after using the "scourge" will cause great trouble.
Resurrection from the dead is the biggest secret of the traversers, and it is also their most important trump card, and no one will reveal it. Not to mention outsiders, even the emperor's student who lives in the castle is not allowed to enter the castle hall until now, only from the back door of the castle.
Sanyu is usually very kind and talkative, but he is quite firm on this issue and has no accommodation. He has even begun to restore the houses in the castle to accommodate ordinary people who may live in the castle in the future.
Everyone agrees with this. Although they are not willing to use the heart of a villain to treat the belly of a gentleman, it is better to take precautions in advance for many things.
So this really sad joke, although it was understood by Panda, immediately attracted criticism from others.
"This topic is not suitable for jokes!"
"Yeah, seriously, this can't be a joke!"
"Yes, yes."
Being so criticized by everyone, my face turned red immediately: "Okay! I admit my mistake, I admit my mistake! It's just a joke, excited Sazi..."
After a little interlude, the conversation returned to the subject.
How to deal with those guys who worship demons?
Or, how to find them?
It took more than ten days for the top ten people to travel through mountains and rivers. Of course, it was not to reason with people and talk about life. They are here to make trouble, to fight. And what they're going to fight is those **** who worship demons.
If nothing else, if the other party can provide a lot of experience and prestige, it is worth fighting for them.
Not to mention that the group of **** also assassinated Sleepless - they have combined two things to do one.
The people in the strategy group discussed it in detail, but they were not able to determine which demon the villain BOSS worshipped in Tarakhan City. But there are definitely not many people who collude with demons in this world. How could it be such a coincidence that two groups of people would meet in the same place?
This is definitely a gang!
After all, although the pandas destroyed the manor, the lumber mill had not been found, and there must be other people.
"Then, our plan in the near future is to investigate all the local logging farms." At the end of the discussion, everyone came to a conclusion, "As long as you find the lair of those guys, and then don't care about the plot or plot, more than 20 people swarmed up. , directly turn her into experience points!"
