Weird Star Witch
Chapter 509 Who can rule the continent?
"A genius knight developed the Guardian Chain, which is a plug-in-like ability. The Guardian Chain allows the knight to have the ability to fight beyond his level. More importantly, it can extract the limit power of ordinary cavalry, which greatly increases the knight's total energy, breaking the balance between apostles and standing out in the city-state era.
The knights believe that ordinary people are very valuable. They select cavalry from ordinary people, knights-knight squires-cavalry-hired farmers. This huge system accommodates a lot of ordinary people and allows ordinary people to have a stable life for the first time.
Ordinary people are no longer slaves to knights, but tools that can increase the knights' combat effectiveness, and all knights benefit from it.
With the addition of ordinary people's limit power, the knights' total energy is much greater than that of other apostles, and other apostles are no match for knights at all.
Under the leadership of high-level knights, the cavalry corps broke through city-states one by one. At the end of the city-state era, no one was the opponent of the knights. The knights carried the lords of the city-states on their spears. They killed the apostles in the city-states and rescued the ordinary slaves there.
Ordinary People were driven into the knights' territory, where they farmed for the knights, trained for the knights, and became the knights' cavalry, making the knights stronger.
For the knights, whoever had more ordinary people was stronger. As knight empires were established, they attracted ordinary people with better conditions, and population became the key to whether the empire was strong or not.
The lives of ordinary people were greatly improved, and the knights formulated a series of rules so that farmers could continuously provide them with extreme power. These rules eventually became the moral code of the knights, such as kindness, forgiveness, respect for women, etc. The knights themselves called these "knightly virtues."
The knights sometimes beat ordinary cavalry into mummies at the most critical moments of the battle. This was certainly a criminal act, but compared to the city-state era, the combination of knights and cavalry was so advanced that it completely changed the production structure of the continent.
The knights ended the situation of the apostles fighting in the city-state era and brought order to the continent for the first time. "
Blanca and Aruman looked surprised. They also knew the legends of the ancient city-state era, but they never thought that the lives of ordinary people in the city-state era were miserable.
The knights’ fighting style is actually very cruel, but according to the teacher, the knights seem to be better than the apostles in the city-state era?
Rudolf continued:
"The most glorious period of the knights was the God-Slaying War more than 2,000 years ago. With the support of the entire continent, Emperor Alec actually defeated the evil god, killed three evil gods, and drove the evil god to the southern continent.
Of course, there are some secrets of immortality involved here, and wizards played an ignominious role in it. I will tell you later.
No matter what the final result is, the fighting power of the knights has forced the evil gods to avoid it.
From then on, for a long time, the lives of ordinary people were very simple. They farmed for the knights, tried to eat a strong body, and then became the knights' cavalry.
It was not the knights who ruled the continent, but the knights who found a way to extract energy from ordinary people. It was the knights and ordinary people who ruled the continent.
This state lasted for a long time until the alchemists achieved a breakthrough in technology in their long-term theoretical accumulation, which brought the second major change to the continent."
Aruman and Blanca kept thinking about the situation of ordinary people in the past as Rudolf told them, and they really wanted to know what changes the alchemists had made in the relationship between the apostles and ordinary people.
"Alchemists have found another way for ordinary people to survive: leave the land and enter the alchemist's factory.
On a mature production line, dozens of ordinary workers can produce a large number of powerful weapons in a short period of time, and can also produce a large number of daily necessities.
In the hands of knights, ordinary people are farmers who grow crops and consumables that are sucked dry on the battlefield. This method of utilization is too inefficient. In the alchemist's factory, the value of ordinary people is further increased. The powerful mass production capacity makes the total energy of alchemists far higher than that of other apostles.
A salvo of multiple rocket launchers can easily defeat the knight's charge. The knight may not die, but the ordinary cavalry behind the knight will definitely die. The gap in strength between the knights and alchemists became more and more disparate, until the constitutional movement more than two hundred years ago, when the alchemists relied on saturation artillery fire to defeat the knights on the front battlefield.
The knights were defeated and the alchemists gained the right to rule. The deep-seated reason is that ordinary people They prefer to work in factories and live in cities with complete municipal facilities. For example, going to the toilet is much more comfortable than using a dry toilet on the farm.
Compared with turning the soil in the land, working in the city is much more comfortable and the income is higher. The assembly line factory makes materials abundant, and life is better with the alchemist, so ordinary people have switched sides, and the strength of alchemists and knights has reversed. Alchemists are getting stronger and knights are getting weaker.
Except for the Megwen Empire in the north, which is still the Knight Empire, other kingdoms have either become constitutional monarchies or cut off the knight monarch to become the United States.
In the alchemist's factory, ordinary people go to work at nine in the morning and get off work at nine in the evening, working six days a week. It is miserable, but it is much better than the life in the Knight Empire.
The farmers in the knight's territory fled to the alchemist's territory, which greatly reduced the number of knights' cavalry, and they were even more devastated on the battlefield.
The alchemist did not defeat the knight to become the ruler, but the alchemist found a more efficient mechanism to use ordinary people, so that the overall energy of the alchemist is far greater than that of the knight. Therefore, it was the alchemist and ordinary people who defeated the knight together.
The essence of these two major changes is that whoever can use ordinary people more efficiently will become the most powerful apostle on the continent.
The difference in the strength of the twelve apostles themselves is not that great. The addition of ordinary people has widened the gap between the knights and alchemists and other apostles.
I can now easily defeat the Alchemy Council of Fabro City, and even the County Council may not be my opponent, but I will never be the king of Fabro City, the master of Fabro City, because I can't provide better job opportunities and better food sources for the people here.
Apart from fear, I can't think of an effective means of rule.
After avenging Claude, I no longer have obsessions in my heart, so I can look at the Alchemy Council more rationally.
If I really want to make the people in Dordo District live better, I found that I have only one choice, that is, to turn around and protect the Alchemy Council, instead of continuing to attack the Council. "
Blanca and Aruman finally understood why the teacher compromised with the city council. After avenging his friend, the teacher acted more like a police officer than the police chief and more like a witch hunter than the chief of the trial.
Rudolf thought of another thing and frowned:
"I once took in a beggar named Zach in Leman Town. Unfortunately, he became a priest of pain.
If knights and alchemists have merits in treating ordinary people, then the evil priests are at the other extreme. They rule believers and ordinary people with fear. "
I've been a little busy at work recently. It's the end of the semester. I'm sorry to ask for two or three days off.
