Will Beast Ear Girl Encounter Alien Ranch Story?

"Buzz!" A bowstring rang softly, "No!" Manna reached out and tried to grab the arrow but failed. The Platinum officer behind him smiled apologetically and mouthed "Sorry, this is a mission".

The arrow of the origin stone arrow did not go to Linguang's vital point, it just pierced her arm normally, the skin was traumatized, and the fragile origin stone arrow could not cause much damage, however, the specially made pure origin stone The stone pierced into the body, watching the blood flow out, Linguang was in a trance for a while.

This means that from now on, she is an infected person, a patient with incurable ore disease. According to Casimir's rules, she cannot even retain her status as a knight. Jialie's mind went blank for a moment.

Fortunately, the ranger's reaction was still very fast, "Pegasus with the Silver Spear, protect the Patriarch!" Manna flew across the battlefield and came to Linguang. After seeing that the arrow was only scratched, he did not feel relieved, because that The dark golden arrow has said it all.

"You can no longer inherit the family, I will try my best to fight for a good ending for you"

"uncle?"

"Exile is your only way of life. If you must retain the so-called honor and knighthood, you will die, and so will your sister!" The ranger didn't want to preach more, because now his only thought is To save the lives of these two children at all costs, even at the cost of the removal of the Linguang family from the nobility.

"Everyone, go back to your residence immediately! She has become an infected person, and I am the acting patriarch of the family!" Manna shouted, and the Pegasus knights left silently.

"Is this your plan?"

"It's only part of it." Kerber didn't deny it, and the ranger didn't get angry, but just looked at him sadly, "Well, maybe this is the fate of knights. If this ending is used as a curtain call, it's not unacceptable." But, It is too sad that the knight did not disappear with honor on the battlefield, but was exiled and dispelled in the network of conspiracy.

However, for Ranger, who can he blame?Knights are really not suitable for this era, and even after some time, whether those young knights can still set foot on the battlefield, or whether they still have a trace of honor in their hearts, they don't know.

The young inner guards of Ursas have become the tools of the nobles' infighting. How long can Casimir's knights hold on to this honor and bravery?Manna is hopeless.

"Tell your boss that we have surrendered!"

"uncle!"

"Shut up!" Manna stared at the confused Linguang pony, "We surrendered, the Linguang family will never participate in anything here again! You have won!"

"uncle......"

"Do you know where you lost? Do you know why they won? You don't know, you don't know anything, you come here with people, you think this is the battlefield where you grab the glory, but there is no one here is a fighter !" Manna's tone became more and more severe.

"Or is it that in your heart, the survival of the family, the changes of the times, the suffering of the people, everything is nothing compared to your grandfather's dying sigh and the vanity in your heart!?"

"No, I'm not..." Linguang wanted to defend, but he didn't know where to start, just like Tallulah's evaluation of her, she was like Tallulah in the past, she had ideals, But she doesn't know anything, as long as she is tempted a little with a bright reason, she will deviate to another path, becoming the executioner of others without knowing it.

"Perhaps this is also a good thing." Manna calmed down a little. At least one of the planning parties did not intend to really embarrass her, and she did not deviate too much or be used too much. Learn a lesson at this time. Better than a bigger lesson in the future.

"For exile, I suggest that you go to the Republic of Kazdel, um, you can also consider visiting the countryside of Casimir. I heard that you are a famous ranger?"

"Well, I will. The Linguang family will withdraw from the Knights Association. Let's admit defeat." Manna looked at Linguang, "In the next year, I will take you through every path I have walked. See with your eyes, experience with your body, what is a real knight, and what is what you insist on!"

"...Yes, uncle, but Maria..." Linguang had no reason to refuse, and there was no way to refuse, but he was a little worried about his sister.

"She will be sent to your aunt's place, Rhine Life is also a very good place" At least it is more promising than playing those boring tricks with a group of old antiques here.

"The Linguang family has surrendered, your plan is indeed... perfect!" The spokesperson sincerely praised that the Linguang family surrendered by themselves, rather than being defeated, which means that the Silver Spear Tianma has no reason to be hostile to the Federation , and even they may become a boost to the federation.

It's just that the spokesperson still has a question, that is, to whom is the Linguang family admitting defeat?

Is it the Federation, or the Ursus nobleman in front of him?

This represents who their power will be used for.

However, this question remains unanswered.

Chapter 24 The Last Autumn

The chaos of the night passed. In the end, what happened in the power plant was explained by the cavaliers who lost the game. The Federation got what they wanted. The essential part is still missing.

The Knights Association would rather revoke Linguang's knight status and exile her than admit that "infected knights are also knights", because if the infected knights are knights, then there is a lot to be said about whether the infected person who becomes a competitive knight is a knight .

In the face of the interests of the entire class, even the Linguang family, which is a knight among knights, can be sacrificed. Of course, as compensation for the Linguang family, which has considerable influence among the conquest knights, the Knights Association intends to find a The reason for granting Maria the status of knight.

However, no matter what, there was a rift between the two parties after all, and Margaret herself, as the person involved, clearly saw the true face of the great knights who used to be considered generous elders, but all of this had nothing to do with her relationship.

"Congratulations, you got what you wanted"

"Thank you, but my boss and I are very curious, what exactly do you want? It is definitely not just a simple arena bonus or some simple monetary benefits." This is also what the speaker is curious about. Tallulah's motivation is What?

"My purpose has also been achieved, at least the main purpose has been achieved." The tacit understanding among Casimir's military, nobles, and bureaucrats representing merchants has been broken, and their subsequent struggles will become more obvious and white hot.

Only when they fight, the people at the bottom will have a chance to breathe. After all, Lao Xia and the others have not even settled Kazdel, and have no time to deal with Casimir's matter.

And the most important thing is that, according to the information sent by Lao Xia recently, the economic trend of Kazdel and even the whole Terra is not right. One, is to remove Casimir from the battlefield before the war begins.

Otherwise, the new Kazdel established by the Infected and Sarkaz would not be able to withstand the simultaneous combat from multiple aspects, especially if they have not even settled the country.

"Then may I know which side you represent?"

"Don't you already know?" Whether it is Titan Industries, tanks or Kerber's fighting style, the answer is already on the table.

"The New Republic of Casdel... I can't tell, your backs are more than that, so are we one of your backs?" The spokesman looked at Tallulah.

"Perhaps, who knows?" Tallulah was noncommittal. Now that Kasimir's propaganda has been released, the power plant cooperation will drive a large number of population flows, and she can increase the strength of the infected again.

"Also, if you understand what's going on in the world market, you should understand what our purpose is, and there's a huge ... basis for cooperation, especially against Colombia, not ?"

The spokesperson knows what the other party is referring to. It is food. Casimir is the largest food exporter in Terra, while Colombia is the second largest. The latter has advanced technology and a higher degree of organization. Their large farms have gradually equaled Casimir's natural advantage.

In other words, Colombia is Casimir's biggest competitor and enemy, which is why the Federation believes that they should compete with Colombia to grab the market instead of dragging each other down with the Cavaliers.

And New Kazdel is a newcomer in this world's food industry, but their output is even more astonishing, but the types of products are relatively thin, and the production environment is very unstable-the most important thing is that their sales targets are mainly Usa Si, Longmen, Dayan, and Casimir's clients are Letania, Victoria, Sargon and Sami.

It coincides with the market in Colombia, but there is not much conflict with the market in New Kazdale. Ursas will not buy their food, and they will not sell it. Once the wild bears are full, of course they will not pay honestly. , but the group army went south directly.

"So, we should unite. We have an old saying that whoever controls the food controls the world."

"And we also have an old saying: the enemy of the enemy..." The spokesperson stretched out his hand, and Tallulah froze for a moment, then smiled, "That's an ally." She held both hands together.

That's right, allies, not friends, and they will never become friends, they just have a common enemy, because the market in Colombia also overlaps with that of Kazdel.

Then they talked a lot, such as the export of Lao Xia’s chemical fertilizers, the introduction of improved seeds, etc. Titan’s characteristic crops are also one of Lao Xia’s research directions. Whether these will be used on the Ark or used after returning to the Star Alliance It is easy to ask for bonuses from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

A few days later, outside the city of Casimir, the emerald green field has been dyed a layer of gold, "This season, Kazdel should have a bumper harvest, why don't we go there next stop?" Ma in the cloak Enna held a roll of maps, "Let's go to Letalu and Letania on the way?"

"Hmm..." The blond girl beside her looked at the wilderness, a little lost in thought, with a sluggish expression. She had pursued the perfect knight all her life, but now she became an infected person, not even a knight.

"Brace yourself, Knight of Light!"

"I'm not a knight anymore..." the girl said disappointedly.

"What do you think is a knight?" Manna asked seriously, "A person who lives in a castle, rides a horse, holds a weapon, wears the armor of the ancestors, and talks about glory and virtue, is that a knight? ?”

"This...isn't it?" In the past, Linguang really thought so, but he always felt that it shouldn't be so.

"Then, is it a knight who possesses powerful force and gallops and kills on the battlefield?"

"This...probably?"

"No, think about it with your brain, what is a knight?" Manna sighed, "Ask your heart, what is a real knight."

"What is... a real knight?"

"There are two types of knights. The first type is what I call superficial knights, or secular knights. They live in castles and are part of the country and the land's operating rules. Farmers farm the land, bureaucrats Management, knights protect the territory and enjoy offerings, ride horses, bring attendants, and live on the flesh and blood of serfs."

Manna pointed to the field beside the road, "Look, there are knights like this everywhere, so do you think they are knights?"

Linguang looked at the knights who flaunted their might and walked through the fields with their attendants and servants. The farmers on both sides could only cower and kneel on the side of the road. She even knew those people on horseback. A respectable gentleman, and perhaps a good fighter in battle, but...

"..."

"Another kind of knight is the inner knight. As long as you follow this spirit and will, you are a real knight."

"Eight virtues?"

"No, that's..." For something based on feudal rule, it is undeniable that there are good parts in it, but it is too restrictive to the ruling class, such as compassion and loyalty. .

"I'm talking about the oldest code of chivalry, sweeping away the darkness, sympathizing with the weak, and being fearless. Those infected people on the field are just this kind of knights. They don't fight for their own castles or for the so-called glory. , but to fight for other weaklings, and you always thought they were not knights at all, didn't you?"

"......"

"So, now you need to use your own legs and eyes to see clearly what is a real knight or chivalry." The class product of knights may disappear in the long river of history, but part of the spirit it puts forward But it can continue to pass on.

It just needs to get rid of those things that are purely for maintaining the rule, and in the final analysis, this class is also an advanced representative at the beginning, at least better than slave owners and savages.

"I understand, Uncle." Margaret finally raised her head, looking at the endless fields and roads ahead.

"That's good. I will replace your parents and that stubborn old man and teach you to be a real knight. Of course, you can also be called a ranger?" Marna rubbed her hair, and the two figures turned their backs to each other. Behind him, the majestic city of Kavaleriyaki gradually disappeared on the road leading to the wilderness.

This year is called the year of turning point by the people of Terra. To be more precise, it started from the autumn of the previous year. The first sign was that Longmen’s manufacturing securities with daily daily limit ushered in a long period of stagnation. Economic experts in Victoria claim that this is just the aftermath of industrial adjustment, and a new favorable period will soon be ushered in.

In the manufacturing area of ​​Longmen, due to unsalable goods, in order to maintain sales, various manufacturers began to compete with each other, and in order to maintain profits, workers’ wages became lower and lower, and even some new means of exploitation appeared, such as Wages are no longer paid at all, but remuneration is paid on a piece-by-piece basis, and what's more, wages are simply paid with commodities.

In the commercial area, the price of grain is falling at a slow and firm speed, but the transaction volume is constantly decreasing. Faced with the avalanche of grain prices, merchants hoarding grain choose to sell it before bottoming out. It's hard to find cheap food because labor costs and shipping costs haven't changed.

Although later researchers believed that it should start with the Longmen stock market crash in the summer of the second year, there are still many people who believe that the real beginning was in the autumn of the previous year.

Six months after the proclamation of the new Kazdel Republic, the Regent of Tracys refuted the legitimacy of the regime. A united kingdom of cities and tribes, he held the office of regent.

However, for the Sarkaz people in Kazdale, in fact, earlier, the cold winter blizzard had already brought the breath of death, but it became the coldest in autumn.

In October, the autumn grains were harvested and began to go on the market gradually. On the side of Sati Oasis, bags of packed grains were stacked up for statistics. Some of them were used to pay the farm’s remuneration and provide consumption, and the rest were thrown into the market. Kazdale's Market.

The whole stackyard is filled with a fresh smell of starch and wheat. For the residents working in New Castle, it means another bumper year. However, for the farmers and cattlemen elsewhere, This is the clarion call for death.

After the establishment of New Kazdale, they began to reject all the messy currencies used for transactions in the past, and only accepted two kinds of currencies, Longmen currency or the new currency issued by themselves as the standard object, the latter has already obtained Victoria With the endorsement of many banks, Chief Wei of Longmen is also willing to accept a small amount of money circulation called "Origin Stone Coin".

In contrast, the currency of the Casdale Kingdom established in the southwest is a bit embarrassing. Tracy also wants to issue banknotes, but he does not have any credit to guarantee this, so he still uses physical coins. For merchants, this means that transactions need to carry heavy currency, rather than a check.

This is the first time that Tracys has done nothing to start a financial war like this. Although the merchants will bring some physical currency for transactions, they mostly ask the nobles of Kazdel to pay Originium Coins. Or Longmen Coin, because this can save a lot of transaction load, and every kilogram of load is profit.

It’s not just that the nobles bought food to prepare for the inevitable civil war that followed, they even needed money to buy their wine glasses, wine, furniture, and beautiful clothes, and the taxes collected by their slaves and farmers were all in kind. They can only be asked to pay money as a tax, or to sell the real thing.

Then use Originium Coins to buy food and other necessities, even weapons, ores, and metals. The simple dumping of commodities will not cause such a huge destructive surface. The two-pronged currency war and economic war is the most terrifying scene.

What's even more frightening is that their actions like this are equivalent to increasing the liquidity of Originium coins. A currency that can be circulated is a good currency, which means that there is enough credit, and the nobles of each kingdom can sell any commodity Or buying any commodity is adding a credit guarantee for Lao Xia.

And the more they are like this, the more "reasonable inflation" Laoxia can do, and the more willing countries such as Longmen and Victoria are to accept this new currency transaction. What's more troublesome is that the more they are like this, it means that their commodities The more they are unwilling to use the original heavy and plentiful Kazdel currency transactions, which in turn prompts Kazdel nobles to use more origin stone coins or Longmen coins for transactions.

Objectively speaking, this has effectively promoted the circulation of goods, the caravans have become more frequent, and the number of goods they carry has also increased. However, on the other hand...

The village was burning, and the tax collector and the lord's cavalry captured everyone in the middle of the village, "Look, this is what happens when you resist tax!" They pointed to the bloody corpses on the ground and shouted loudly.

The lords want to buy cheap weapons from Titan Industries to arm their troops. They also like those colorful pieces of paper, because they can exchange for more good things, but these lowly untouchables refuse to hand over these good things .

The numb farmers look miserable. They don't know economics. They only know why the taxes that they could barely bear in previous years are so unaffordable this year that they can't afford to empty the barn?

The green wheat in Sati Oasis is plentiful and good, and the sweet potato starch is extremely cheap. Merchants want to make money. They cross the desert and brave the storm not to be a Bodhisattva. To make a profit, they have to drive down the price.

"Search! They must have a secret granary. Under their beds, in the cellar, there must be hidden wheat, potatoes, and even cured meat." The experienced tax collector knew that they had secrets just by scanning the faces of these people.

"..." The villagers became a little restless, but in the end they remained silent and numb in front of the cavalry's sharp blade. Only the elders in the village kept wriggling their lips, with the most humble and monotonous begging in their mouths." My lord, my lord, please, have mercy, have mercy~"
