NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 219 Feudal Society
Looking around, there are not many people who are the same age as him, but there are a few people who are slightly older than him. They are fifteen or sixteen years old. Most of the people who come here are over 18 or even 20 years old. , Even if it is 30 years old or even around 40 years old, there are many.
The barracks is not just a place to recruit imperial soldiers, it is more like an application for establishment.
According to the ability, they will be assigned to different positions after passing.
Noel used identification on the information and documents on the table, and found that 224 of the 230 recruits who were recruited would be sent to the border to become border guards, fighting against the foreign nationalities who invaded the empire every day near the border.
Most of the foreign nations are brave and good at fighting, so the army on the border of the empire suffers from extremely high damage and death rates in battle.
Soldiers who have been stationed at the border for many years are not to mention, like these 224 people, not only have no martial arts, but also have not experienced the baptism of cruel wars, they are simply a group of rookies.
They go to the border just to become "cannon fodder".
If a few people survived by chance, then they can really become stronger and transform from cannon fodder into actual combat power.
1 in 50, or even 1 in 40 people can survive ~ not bad.
"Hey, come in next!"
The last person in front also left, and after waiting in line for a long time, it was finally Noel's turn.
He walked into the barracks and found that it was really busy.
All the counters were packed.
"Child?" The bald man behind the counter saw that the person he had called in was actually a fledgling child, slapped the table angrily, and stood up abruptly.
"Who made you come here to make trouble!"
Noel saw the way he stared at him from blowing his beard and handed the letter of introduction directly.
The bald man saw the boy in front of him take out a letter and took it subconsciously.
"What the hell is this?
The man roughly tore the envelope in half, and the letter naturally fell out.
He unfolded the folded letter paper and looked at the contents on it impatiently, but after reading it, his expression softened a little, and he glanced at Noel secretly again.
He coughed twice, and said to another busy colleague: "Hey, you can also take care of me here, I have something to do inside.
The colleague who was ordered by him was still a little unhappy.
However, when he heard the bald man say that he was going inside, although he was a little upset, he could only give up.
"Come with me, boy."
The bald man said a word, then took the lead and walked towards the interior of the barracks office.
Noel followed behind him and realized that the barracks looked ordinary from the outside, but there was a backyard with a large area inside, and even a specially built corridor led to the back.
At the end of the hallway, here is a separate room.
There are so many people making noises outside, and when I get here, I can't hear any sound at all. The contrast is very strong.
One by one.
The bald man knocked on the door twice, and then waited quietly.
Noel could feel that there was a room behind this door, and that there was someone in it, a man, in terms of breath.
The other party was not sleeping, but his breathing was steady, as if he was resting.
After about a full minute, the talent inside finally came out.
"come in."
The bald man was refreshed, reached out and turned the door handle, slowly pushing the door open.
Noel followed him into it, finding that the space was bigger than he had imagined.
About ninety square meters, with three shelves, are listed.
The furniture is complete, and there is even a separate bathroom. Can such a space be considered an office?
correct.
This is a feudal country, and it is normal for officials to have privileges.
In fact, instead of staying outside, coming in here, he is now also the beneficiary of this "privilege".
At this time, the owner of the office was leaning lazily on the sofa, with a few books in his hand, a plate of fresh fruit, and... red wine?
"What's the matter? 95
"Ah, yes, a young man found this place with a letter of introduction from Lord Lawton.
"What did you say?"
Putting down the book in his hand, the owner of the office sat upright on the sofa, looking past the bald man and looking at Noel.
Noel looked at the man too.
"Identification.""
"Remus Lydon"
47 years old
male
Former Commander of the 2nd Army on the Southern Frontier of the Empire
.
·The current head of the imperial noble family Layden
noble?
What is the identity of Roton, a friend of the "deceased father", to have such a network?
Although Remus was 47 years old, he looked like he was in his early thirties. He was over 1.90 meters tall and had a slender body.
He belongs to the type of handsome uncle who is very easy for girls to fall in love with.
Noel noticed that he glanced at himself and took the letter of introduction from the bald man.
Glancing back and forth twice, Remus' eyes showed a somewhat nostalgic look.
After carefully refolding the letter, he came to his desk, put the letter in a booklet, and put it in the drawer.
"grown ups?"
The bald man wants the man to give him further instructions.
Remus waved casually, and the bald man left.
After he left, only Noel and each other were left in this secret office.
"You have little resemblance to your father," Remus said, making Noel wonder if his identity had been revealed.
But the man continued: "It seems that you are more like a mother than a father.
6699
Who knows.
He also doesn't know if there is a mother in the setting.
Even if there is, he can't be like that person, because the two sides are not related by blood at all, and the genetic factors do not come from each other.
Seeing that Noel was silent and expressionless, Remus thought he might be nervous.
So he changed the subject and asked, "Son, what's your name?"
"Noel."
Remus, who only heard the name, asked in confusion, "Then what?
He hadn't heard the boy's last name yet.
Noel shook his head and replied, "No, just Noel."
Remus froze for a moment.
He seemed to want to ask something, but after seeing Noel's "innocent" appearance, he seemed to give up.
"Noel, listen up, Roden asked me to take care of you. Frankly speaking, I am not suitable for this job. After all, I have never had parenting experience. All in all, I will program you into the imperial establishment first. 35 Rai Muss paused here, as if to worry about how to arrange him reasonably.
But Noel knew that, judging from his attitude, he would definitely not be like those sent to the border to die.
After hesitating for a moment, Remus pulled something from the shelf.
He took it and put it on the table for Noel to check it out.
"This is……"
Description of imperial office?
Wait, it seems like it's just a table.
Remus asked, "Is there anything here that interests you?"
let me choose?
Noel was a little surprised.
Remus' ability seems to be greater than he imagined, even if he doesn't have an official position now, his family's status is enough.
"is it okay?
Noel confirmed again and got a positive answer.
So he examined it carefully.
To say what things in this world he is most interested in, of course, he hopes to discover special abilities like the knife cutter.
Although these abilities will not directly increase the ability value, they will greatly improve his strength.
His gear is ordinary.
At least compared to those heroes.
The ability value to reach S999 is his limit as a mortal, unlike Bell Croney, who can easily ignore the upper limit of the device and increase the ability value infinitely, and even make the ability value surpass SS and even SSS.
The existing ability value benchmarks are unable to determine his ability value to break through the limit.
But even so, he has something that cannot be changed.
That is ability.
A person's character, experience and other things must be catalyzed by time. If Bell Croney can lay the strongest foundation by virtue of his ability, then he is relying on the power system from another world to improve himself.
It is a pity that at present, he has not discovered any extraordinary mysterious powers in this world.
Including this Remus is only a bit stronger than ordinary people. If the venue and equipment are not unfavorable, he may be able to defeat seven or eight ordinary soldiers alone, or a dozen ordinary people.
•••••••••**••••••••••
But that's all, if it was him, even if the other party dispatched ordinary people with hundreds of people, it would not have any effect.
Considering that Remus is a noble, there should be a stronger presence in the empire.
Looking and looking, Noel found that there were no similar departments in the table, and they all looked very ordinary.
Patrolmen, guards, jailers, interrogators...
and many more.
scientific force?
If you want to ask Noel's impression of the world, first of all, he came here in a carriage, and from the perspective of people's clothing and architectural styles, it feels no different from the feudal country in the late Middle Ages.
It is against the background of such an era that there is actually a scientific concept in the empire?
This is too inconsistent.
"Excuse me, what is the scientific force?"
Um?
Remus was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Oh, yes, after all, you are at an age when you are curious about unknown things, and you are curious about things you have never heard of in the countryside.
Speaking of which, the man hesitated.
Because he doesn't know what science is.
Since the establishment of the so-called scientific force, huge funds have been injected by the empire, but the results can only be said to be mediocre.
In his eyes, it was a daydream group of boring academics.
For some reason, this group has not been banned, and there is no sign of the funds being blocked at all.
"Yes, if I can, I'd like to see the scientific troops."
Well.
The man didn't answer right away.
He looked as though he was weighing something, and the confidence he had exuded had faded.
After all, the scientific force is not a force under his jurisdiction. If it is a patrol or a law enforcement team, his right to speak is one of the best.
But the science unit is different.
He can use his connections to send people over, but he can't take care of it himself.
After all, the highest commander of the scientific force is more powerful than him.
In other words, compared to him who has no noble status, the other party is the real power faction who is in full swing.
"I can help you arrange it, but in the scientific force, I can't use too much power, but compared to my position, it should be safe that the scientific force does not need to participate in combat."
"Please," Noel insisted.
Remus was very easy to talk, and in the face of "old friend", he immediately agreed to help him arrange it immediately.
That night, Remus' reception gave him a new understanding of "noble".
It can be said that there are two worlds between nobles and ordinary people.
In the bathtub made of pure gold, the hot water is uninterrupted, and the rare treasures placed in the home are even more dazzling.
Although all these things are garbage to Noel, they do have a high value that can keep the people of several villages safe.
For dinner, too, a steak made of unheard-of meat with rich gravy and a strong taste, the price of this piece of meat is equivalent to about ten girls.
Human trafficking is as common and widespread as pet stores in this country.
"You can call me Uncle Remus from now on, and treat the Layden House as your new home.
"Thank you very much.
"Okay, I'll ask the servant to take you to the room. If you have anything, you just need to tell these people."
Noel nodded.
From all of Remus' words and demeanor, it could be seen that he was perfectly adapted to this way of life as a man born into a privileged class.
Led by a maid who had just turned 19, Noel was led into a spacious room.
Compared with the spaciousness, it seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that it is vast.
There is a full 210 square meters just for sleeping in the bedroom.
In addition to the extra-luxurious looking bed, you can see how the imperial capital's 200,000 square kilometers area came from.
If every noble is like this, then the area of 200,000 square kilometers of the imperial capital seems to be normal.
"This bed is more than enough for ten people..."
Just when Noel looked at the big bed in front of him and felt speechless, the maid just now walked in with the other 9 maids of different ages and good looks.
"Lord Noel, allow us to serve you. 35
"..."I.
