The Origin of Arcane

Chapter 16 Restructuring



It is not impossible for the poor at the bottom to produce great knights, but this possibility is very low. Even 99% of them are cultivated by those noble lords.

It's not about talent, it's about money.

But even if a person is extremely talented, but his family is poor, he can’t even eat a full meal all day long, and how can he find the energy to hone various skills, if a child from a poor family does not work in the field, he will be scolded when he goes out to play— — This is not a joke, but a true portrayal of poverty.

There is a famous saying in the Arshan Continent that to become a qualified knight, one must have a good appetite.

Every knight is known as a big eater, and a big knight is even more so. A meal of half a sheep and ten catties of food is a common thing for them, otherwise you would think they have a monster-like physique How did it come about?

Meditation to refine Qi?

This is just a joke, even warlocks with bloodline abilities will not guide external energy into their bodies, that is a kind of murder, a kind of murder against themselves.

Of course, this may also be because their realm is not enough, they have no way to do such extraordinary things, they can only use the most mundane methods to temper themselves.

Why once you become a knight, the loyal noble lord will bestow the manor?

Creating wealth is just nonsense. Only the production and supply of one manor can keep this knight in peak condition. A small manor composed of ten families can barely make ends meet for one knight—not purely referring to the knight’s food and drink, Also includes the knight's horse and two retinues, as well as simple weapon and armor repairs.

As for creating new weapons and armors, it is up to the knights to find their own way. It is possible that many knights' armors were passed down from their fathers, grandfathers, great-grandfathers, and great-great-grandfathers.

Saying that those weapons and armors are family heirlooms and have a glorious history are all nonsense to coax people to fool themselves. It is not because there is no extra money to build brand new weapons and armors.

If he had this ability, Sun Tzu would not build new ones. Not to mention the changes of the times, not to mention the progress of forging technology, those old antiques have been repaired and remodeled countless times, and their sharpness and protection are not satisfactory. Not to mention, no matter how high-tech the modification is, it is not as good as a tailor-made fit.

I didn't see those powerful nobles who always put their family treasures in the castle for people to look up to. What they wear on the battlefield are all brand-new armors tailored with the latest technology.

There are always exceptions to everything. If these old antiques are old enough, so old that they were handed down from the Andes Empire three hundred years ago, or even the Elf Empire thousands of years ago, then it is a completely different situation.

Because such armor usually has some unique abilities, which are small enough to enhance a certain ability of the user, and big enough to affect the outcome of a battle.

The most typical representative of this is the Sword of Courage mastered by the Lancelot family of the royal family of the Byron Alliance. It is said that this sword has magical powers. Outbursts of courage comparable to elite veterans.

In all the wars led by the Lancelot royal family, as long as this sword appeared on the battlefield, it has never been defeated. Therefore, this sword is also called the sword of victory and has become one of the biggest symbols of the Lancelot royal family.

Legend has it that this sword came from Evans, the most famous blacksmith in the Elven Empire back then. This master Elven blacksmith who liked to use a leaf of the tree of life as his signature symbol only forged seven weapons in his life.

Each one has left its own glorious chapter in history, but those six have disappeared in the long river of history, and only this sword of courage has been handed down by accident.

Becoming a knight has always been a distant dream for poor children.

Closer to home, the great knight Ajel was not born of a poor man, but a nobleman, and the Manyu army led a well-known family, which can be traced back to the beginning of the founding of the Byron Federation.

He has had a hereditary title since he was born. Although he is only the lowest hereditary baron, he is still the one who has the power over the life and death of tens of thousands of people in a city and county. Without him, it would be impossible to appear here—at least not in this playful form.

If it were the barbarians who were in charge of an army of thousands or even tens of thousands of people to conquer the Andes Mountains, he would naturally not hide his head and tail as before.

Now that it has been exposed, Ajer no longer intends to hide his ears and steal the bell. Naturally, mastering this hunting slave team that is on the verge of collapse is his first priority. If he wants to leave the mountain alive with Batley, who is seriously injured, he still needs the assistance of these people.

As for the slave soldier who questioned him just now, before he finished speaking, he was slapped with a sword and became the chicken in the killing chickens and monkeys—it doesn't matter whether what he said is reasonable or not, the important thing is that they obey , and absolute force is the easiest way to make them obey.

Every great knight is an excellent grassroots officer. Even if he doesn't understand the military formation at first, he must make up for this shortcoming after becoming a great knight.

On the ever-changing battlefield, one person's strength is limited after all, not to mention the great knights, even those champion knights dare not charge alone.

Numerous cruel facts have proved that the death rate of a grand knight with his own personal guard is far lower than that of a grand knight without a personal guard.

Naturally, Ajer, who was born in a noble family and had received a good education since he was a child, was not too bad, and it was easy to reorganize a team with only 120 or 30 people left.

The first thing the soldiers did when they regrouped was naturally to collect the wounded, and by the way, to make up for those Andis mountain people who were still panting. That kind of massacre to vent their emotions is not going to let these Andes mountain people who can't escape, it is definitely a matter of public outrage, and a wise man will not do it.

Just a few hundred meters upstream of the mountain stream at the foot of the mountain, Agel sent people to set up camp. Although it was just after noon, it was impossible to go on the road today in this situation.

On the other side of the forest, under the guidance of the horn, the fleeing Andis mountain people are gradually gathering. The leader is none other than Sean, who was forced by the great knight Agel to flee in embarrassment.

Now there are more than a dozen Andes mountain people gathered around him. Although there are men, women and children, most of them are powerful men. In the previous brutal fights, these hunters who have been walking on the edge of danger all year round have a greater chance of surviving.

Don, Sean* Tang, it's really you. An Andis mountain man who had just emerged from the forest yelled with surprise on his face, and then shouted behind him, Come out! , it’s not a trap, it’s Tang, who rescued us earlier.”

Soon, 20 or 30 Andes mountain people came out of the forest one after another. Obviously, they had consciously gathered together on the way to escape.

Chad, it's great that you're still alive, what about Benz and Cobil. Sean hurried up to meet him, gave him a bear hug, and at the same time searched the crowd behind him, but was very disappointed, familiar faces Although there are quite a few of them, they are not from their own village.

Ben committed stubbornness. After being captured, he was killed shortly after leaving the village. I was separated from Kabier and the others. I don't know their situation very well, but one of the detainees had been to Regular knights on the battlefield, I’m afraid there will be more bad luck than good luck.” I don’t know if they have become numb after seeing too much life and death, or they are trying to be strong.

Chad didn't show much sadness, he hammered Sean's chest and said, We knew you would come to save us.

Talking. Sean winked at the familiar faces behind Charlie, and dragged Chad to the side.

Sean.

Don.

teacher.

Those Andis mountain people came over to salute Sean one after another, their expressions were a little less friendly than Chad, and a little more respectful, respect from the heart.

These Andes mountain people are very young, the oldest one is only in his early twenties, and the youngest is only seventeen or eighteen.

Although these young Andes mountain people come from different villages, they have similar origins and a similar life experience. They are Marshall who has grown up.

There was a mother who didn't know how to take care of the children. Xiao En could only use his brain to make his life more comfortable. At the beginning, he could only rely on the adults in the village. Orphan children for their own use.

One is that it is convenient for me to do things myself, and I can use their hands to do many things that I cannot do at my current age.

Secondly, the life of these children is really too difficult, I can't bear it, and I want to fight for a new way of life for them.

And this thing, once done, can't be stopped.

There are too many orphaned children among the mountain people in Andes, not to mention the scourge of slave hunting, hunting in the mountains is also dangerous, coupled with natural and man-made disasters, children are usually the last ones left—why? Which parent does not desperately protect their children?

There are generally only three destinations for these orphaned children.

One is being adopted by one's close relatives;

The second is being raised together by the village, which is often said to eat hundreds of meals;

The last one is the most miserable. Those who have neither close relatives nor a decent village can only become vagrants. If they meet a kind family and adopt them, there is still a way to survive. If not, they can only fend for themselves.

Even the first two kinds of life may not be easy, after all, they are not raised by themselves, and their own children may not have enough to eat, let alone raising outsiders. Once there is a famine, the first two kinds of children Often it becomes the third type.

In the beginning, Xiao En took the initiative to recruit those orphaned children. After the reputation spread, some children who had lost their lives came to him. In the end, not only the orphans from the surrounding villages were sent to Xiao En, but also some poor families Find a way out for your own children and send them to Sean.

At most, Sean had nearly a hundred orphans by his side, and during that time, he was overwhelmed just looking for stuttering for these children.
